The silent Changyang Prefecture became brightly lit in a single moment. Figures flickered everywhere as all the guards in Changyang Prefecture surged out of their rooms as soon as possible. Although many of them had been roused from their sleep, they did not seem to be in their sleep at all. They were brimming with energy and their gazes were sharp.
Only three seconds had passed since the drums had sounded, yet several hundred figures suddenly appeared in the silent Changyang Prefecture.
Many guards radiated with powerful presences as they gathered in the front courtyard of Changyang Prefecture. Before they could even ask what had happened, they all sensed the extremely bright moonlight shining down from the sky. They immediately raised their heads and became momentarily stunned when they saw what was in the sky.
A huge divine hall surrounded by a dense layer of moonlight hovered a hundred meters above the Changyang clan. It completely obscured the sky above.
"What's going on?" A heavy and dignified voice rang out. Changyang Ba walked out of his room in luxurious robes. He seemed even more composed than before.
However, as soon as he stepped out of the door, Changyang Ba discovered what was in the sky through the moonlight. He became stunned as well.
Soon after, the various important members and high-ranking members of Changyang Prefecture were alarmed. They all emerged from their rooms and stared at the divine hall in the sky in surprise and doubt.
"T- this seems to be the Bright Moon Divine Hall that Yue 'er mentioned!" Changyang Ba stared at the divine hall as he softly murmured. He had known that You Yue had obtained the divine hall long ago, but he had never seen it with his own eyes.
At this moment, the doors to the divine hall opened. Jianchen flew out of the divine hall with the heavily injured Changyang Zu Yunxiao on his back. Tie Ta and You Yue followed closely behind Jianchen with the Moon God Scepter.
"Xiang'er …"
"It's Fourth Young Master …"
As soon as Jianchen landed on the ground, he was immediately recognized by the crowd. First, there were low cries of surprise and surprise. Then, all the guards around him knelt down on one knee at the same time. Each and every one of them had a look of excitement and worship on their faces as they shouted, "We pay our respects to the Fourth Young Master!"
In the blink of an eye, the surroundings were filled with kneeling people. Only a few of Jianchen's elders remained standing.
Changyang Ba quickly walked over. Seeing Jianchen covered in blood, he was both shocked and angry. He didn't have time to exchange pleasantries and directly asked, "Xiang'er, what happened to you? Why did you suffer so much?"
Who hurt you? "Changyang Ba's tone was full of concern, mixed with a little worry.
Even with Jianchen's current strength, he had still ended up in such a horrible state. Changyang Ba really had no idea just what kind of powerful enemy his genius son had encountered outside.
"Xiang'er …" A sobbing voice rang out. Bi Yuntian quickly walked over gracefully. She glanced past the various wounds on Jianchen's body and could not help but tremble. As a mother, her heart had almost shattered when she saw her precious son in such a miserable state.
"Great-grandfather Yunxiao, w- w- Xiang'er, how did great-grandfather Yunxiao end up like this? He's a great elder of a protector clan. Just who on the Tian Yuan Continent would be bold enough to injure a great elder like him? Xiang'er, what happened?" Changyang Ba paled in fright as he hurriedly asked.
"Father, mother, let's talk about this tomorrow. I'll take great-grandfather Yunxiao to heal first." Jianchen's heart was rather heavy. With that, he carried the still unconscious Changyang Zu Yunxiao back to his residence.
You Yue and Tie Ta left with Jianchen, leaving Changyang Ba and the others standing there with heavy hearts. Aside from the footsteps of Jianchen and the others, there was no other sound. The atmosphere had become extremely heavy.
Before long, Ruijin, Black Fish, and Honglian returned to Changyang Prefecture as well. Without saying anything, they all returned to their own residences. The three of them possessed extremely great statuses in Changyang Prefecture, so they all had residences of their own.
You Yue did not take back the Bright Moon Divine Hall. It continued to hover a hundred meters above Changyang Prefecture, just in case something unexpected happened. You Yue had become especially vigilant as well. She was afraid that the experts of the protector clans would attack again, so she used the Bright Moon Divine Hall to protect Changyang Prefecture.
This night was a heavy one for Changyang Prefecture in Lore City. Everything that had happened to Jianchen had made everyone's hearts heavy.
However, this night was a sleepless one for Lore City. The descent of the divine hall had shaken up the entire city very quickly. The deathly silent city quickly became bustling. Even the city lord had personally hurried over from his estate to visit Changyang Prefecture, but he was stopped outside.
Early in the morning, in a mountain range hundreds of thousands of kilometers away, a simple wooden house stood silently in a small valley with an elegant environment. It gave off a desolate aura of time.
This was a small mountain village that was cut off from the rest of the world. The scenery was beautiful, and the energy of the world was extremely abundant. It had even formed a thin layer of mist in the sky. Various herbs and extremely precious heavenly resources were planted in the surroundings of the mountain village. Thousand-year herbs could be seen everywhere, and hundred-year herbs were innumerable.
The mountain village was not small. There were several hundred wooden huts and pavilions of various sizes arranged in a circular pattern, but not a single person could be seen. The entire mountain village was deathly silent.
In the very center of the mountain village was a hall completely constructed from ten-thousand-year-old ironwood. Although it was ancient and antiquated, it was filled with an inviolable dignity.
There were only a few people sitting in the hall. Among them, the most eye-catching person was a woman wearing a green muslin dress. The woman held a zither in her arms, and her face was covered with a veil. Although her face couldn't be seen clearly, it wasn't difficult to guess her peerless beauty just from her temperament.
Opposite her sat three old men with sword-like eyebrows. They had extraordinary presences, and the old man in the middle held a sealed brocade box in his hands.
"Esteemed Heavenly Enchantress, the Heaven's Heart Lotus you gave us has been successfully refined into a pill with mild medicinal properties. Although this pill is refined from a ten-thousand-year-old heavenly treasure, even if it is consumed by a normal person, they will be fine.
There is no need to worry about the medicinal effects being too strong and exploding. " The old man with the brocade box handed it to the Heavenly Enchantress. His tone was filled with respect and fear.
The Heavenly Enchantress accepted the brocade box and opened it. She saw a thumb-sized Mixed Yuan Pill lying inside silently. It was surrounded by a layer of mist, giving off a heavy fragrance.
A sliver of light finally appeared in the Heavenly Enchantress' indifferent eyes when she saw the pill. She said, "The Ancient Medicine Village really lives up to its name. You've actually managed to refine a ten-thousand-year-old heavenly resource in such a short amount of time."
The Ancient Medicine Village was an ancient organization that had existed for over a hundred thousand years. It was a first-rate ancient clan that relied on alchemy for a living and medicine for cultivation. They walked an extremely different path of cultivation. Their attainments in alchemy had reached perfection long ago. They had reached the pinnacle of alchemy. However, they had remained in seclusion for many years, so they did not have much of a reputation. Even among the ancient clans, there were not many people who knew about the Ancient Medicine Village.
"Esteemed Heavenly Enchantress, we've already fulfilled your request. May I ask how our grand elder's injuries are …" An old man asked carefully. He was extremely fearful of the woman before him.
The Heavenly Enchantress stowed the brocade box away and said emotionlessly, "Fortunately, your grand elder's cultivation deviation is not too severe. I've already healed the wounds to his soul with the Soothing Melody. He'll wake up in three days, and he'll make a full recovery after that."
The three old men rejoiced when they heard that. They all thanked her, "Thank you for saving us, esteemed Heavenly Enchantress. We will never forget your kindness."
The Heavenly Enchantress left the Ancient Medicine Village with the Heaven's Heart Lotus that had been refined into a pill. After she left, the three elders of the Ancient Medicine Village immediately let out a long sigh of relief. When they recalled the scene when the Heavenly Enchantress first came to the Ancient Medicine Village, the three of them still felt lingering fear.
"Just who is this Heavenly Enchantress? She's actually so terrifying. With just a flick of her finger, she made everyone in the village fall into a deep sleep. Even Saint Rulers were unable to escape …"
"Fortunately, she doesn't have any enmity towards us. Otherwise, with the strength she displayed, it would be a piece of cake for her to wipe out our village …"
"Her music is just too terrifying. It affects the soul. Even with the strength of the Holy Emperor, we can't withstand three notes from her. Just what level of cultivation does she have to be so powerful …"
