When Liu Sheng saw He Mulong fall into the sea, he panicked.
He was only at the Mystic Light Realm, and he could only hide far away from the Yuanying cultivators. Right now, the only thought left in his mind was to escape.
However, Just Now, Tong Ao, who was being held under his armpit, said, "Daoist Liu, if you want to live, don't go."
For Liu Sheng to be chosen as a disciple by He Mulong, he was not a simple person. Hearing this, he paused for a moment and almost instantly realized what was going on. He sighed and thought to himself, Where can I hide in front of the True Immortals?
He let go of Tong Ao and cupped his hands. "Thank you, Daoist Tong, for the reminder. Just Now, I can't go against my master's orders."
Tong Ao shook his body and summoned a ray of mystic light. He stretched out his leg and stood on the ground. Then, he tidied up his wrinkled clothes and said with a smile, "Not at all. Even if I didn't say it, Fellow Daoist Liu would have thought of it."
At this moment, a colorful cloud flew over and landed in front of the two. Mu Bingxin waved the cloud away and walked out. She looked at Liu Sheng, who was forcing himself to stay calm, and sneered. "At least you know what's good for you."
Without another word, he waved his sleeve and released a five-colored silk handkerchief. He spun it above Liu Sheng and Tong Ao's heads, wrapping them up and putting them into the fragrance pouch. Then, he rode the colorful cloud and returned to the big ship in a flash.
After she landed, she looked around and saw He Mulong lying on the deck. His hair was messy, and his body was wet. He looked half dead.
Just Now, He Mulong was heavily injured and had fallen into the water, but he wasn't dead yet because of his strong foundation.
Zhang Yan saw Mu Bingxin turn around and said, "Daoist Mu, I'll leave this He Zhen to you. Kill him or let him go, it's up to you."
Mu Bingxin didn't say anything. She knew very well that she had offended He Mulong too much today. Even if she let him go, he would come back to make things difficult for her the next day. It was better to just kill him and end it all.
When she thought up to here, she gritted her teeth and shouted out fiercely, causing a baleful blade to fly out from the strong cloud above her, and it swiftly slashed down. With a swish, it severed He Mulong's head, and then she flicked her sleeve to toss out a silk handkerchief to put away his True Spirit.
Mu Bingxin closed her eyes and took half a step back. She took a deep breath and opened her eyes again Just Now.
Once this person died, they would cut off their path of retreat and completely break off their relationship with Taihao School.
However, now that the Demonic Calamity had arrived, without the protection of a large sect, the Pengyuan Sect would most likely not be able to avoid it. Since the Supreme Sky Sect was unreliable, it was better to side with the Dark Azure Sect.
However, her only worry was that if the matter of Dan Huizhen and Zhang Yan's fifth disciple didn't come to an agreement, then where would the Pengyuan Sect go?
Zhang Yan originally thought that Mu Bingxin would hesitate, but he didn't expect her to be so resolute. He couldn't help but nod in his heart and say, "Fellow Daoist Mu, even if my disciple and your Martial Nephew can't come to fruition, I'll definitely try to convince Senior Brother Huo so that your Pengyuan Sect doesn't suffer a calamity."
Hearing Zhang Yan's words, Mu Bingxin's heart calmed down. Her eyes filled with gratitude as she bowed and said, "Then this servant will thank Senior Brother Zhang in advance."
Although the Taihao School had four mansions and three mountains, only the Grand Metropolis Mountain had three Grotto-Heaven Realm True Realm cultivators. Whether it was the school's foundation or the powerful cultivators in the school, it couldn't compare to the Qincang School which had existed for tens of thousands of years.
However, the strength that Zhang Yan displayed today was enough to compete with the Purple Bamboo Mountain where He Mulong was.
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist, don't be in a hurry to thank me. There's still one more thing that needs to be dealt with."
Mu Bingxin asked in a low voice, "What is it? Please tell me, Senior Brother. "
Zhang Yan said, "Although He Mulong is dead, I expect that the flying treasure seed will definitely alarm the Taihao School. In a moment, there will definitely be people coming to investigate. I can help you block them first. After that, you need to quickly lead your disciples back to the sect. Don't come out unless my Qincang School comes to join the meeting."
Mu Bingxin couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart. She said solemnly, "This servant understands. I'll listen to Senior Brother Zhang's instructions."
Zhang Yan nodded, then turned around and said to Zhang Boyan, "Fellow Daoist, why don't you hide yourself first?"
He had the upper hand when he besieged He Mulong. Of course, he wasn't afraid that Zhang Boyan's identity would be seen through. However, if someone from the Taihao School came to negotiate later, he would have to first hide his weakness, lest he fall into the hands of others.
Zhang Boyan snorted and tapped his feet. He immediately turned into a wisp of smoke and disappeared into the cabin of the ship.
Zhang Yan's judgment was not wrong at all. After about a quarter of an hour, the clouds in the sky suddenly surged, and a gap was split open. Two streaks of light with astonishing auras flew down from the gap.
As they got closer, he could clearly see that they were two Daoists, a man and a woman.
The male Daoist looked to be in his fifties. His sideburns were slightly white, and he had a powerful appearance. He was tall and strong, wore a greenish-gray Daoist robe, and his eyes were bright and full of spirit.
Behind him was a middle-aged Daoist.
She had a kind face, and her eyes were clear. However, at this moment, both of them had a slightly serious expression.
The middle-aged Daoist nun Zhang Yan also knew her. She was Qing Yaozi from the Taihao School's Purple Bamboo Mountain Training Hall. In order to sneak into Mount Qingcun to obtain the "Yiqi Ganoderma", he had changed his name to Li Yuanba, and it was from this person that he obtained the Mountain Entry Talisman.
However, when Mu Bingxin saw the Daoren, her expression changed drastically. She took a few steps towards Zhang Yan and said in a trembling voice, "Senior Brother Zhang, you have to be careful. That's Elder Hong Yuanzhong, the person with the highest cultivation in the Purple Bamboo Mountain Training Hall. Rumor has it that he has cultivated to the third layer of Yuanying."
Zhang Yan's eyes narrowed slightly. He had also fought with a third layer of Yuanying before. Seeing the surging spiritual energy on Elder Hong's body, this feeling was also very familiar, so he knew that the rumor was 80% true.
Elder Hong's gaze was as sharp as a torch, and with a glance, he saw He Mulong's corpse on the boat. Monstrous rage instantly appeared in his eyes, and he actually didn't say a word as he formed a seal and pointed downwards. In an instant, thunder rumbled and lightning flashed like golden snakes slithering about, and a ball of lightning net spread out in the horizon, almost enveloping the sea within a radius of a thousand feet.
Then, he roared, his voice resounding through the sky, "Who killed my Junior Brother? Give me your life! "
He shook his shoulder, and a thick blue cloud rose above his head. From within the cloud, thousands of green wooden swords appeared, all of them half a foot long. The swords were surrounded by lightning, and they made swishing sounds as they struggled.
With a turn of his cultivation method, all of the wooden swords were activated, and they fell down like a rain of arrows.
Elder Hong saw that Zhang Yan was standing in the middle of the boat, so he should be the person in charge. Therefore, most of the attacks were directed towards him.
Xu Daojin saw those thunder swords and could not help but exclaim, "Jade Brilliance Thunder Wood Swords? This Daoren is so fierce. "
His eyes were filled with fear. These thunder swords were refined from the Heavenly Thunder Dipper and the Divine Wood's green branches. Once they came close, it did not matter if you hid yourself or not. As long as there was Qi activity in the surroundings, it would immediately gather and attack. Most Dao techniques that could conceal one's tracks would not be able to hide under this method.
When this wave of attacks landed, thunder and lightning crackled in the sky, and flashes of light flashed. It could be said that it was impressive. If it was before, Zhang Yan could only retreat first and then think of a way to counterattack. But now, he was not here alone. Therefore, he did not move, and only said, "Where is Xi Ren? Quickly come and protect your master! "
Just as he finished speaking, a dragon roar sounded, and the sea below surged. The dragon carp's thousand feet long body scuttled out of the water, and it lowered its head. Its pair of red coral-like jade horns slanted towards the sky, and a mass of dark clouds gathered continuously. In the blink of an eye, it expanded to the size of a few acres. Not only did it envelop itself, it also enveloped the entire sea boat behind it.
Xu Daojin was just worrying about how to deal with the thunder wood swords, and was overjoyed when he saw this. He quickly turned his body, and wanted to hide in the clouds. However, Just Now that he was near, he felt a force attacking him, and he could not help but be stunned.
The dragon carp glanced at him and snorted.
Xu Daojin instantly understood. He had offended this dragon carp with his words earlier, and this great demon was rather vengeful. Now that it had come back for revenge, Xu Daojin could also adapt to circumstances. He immediately put down his pride, and apologized in a low voice.
Hearing his soft pleading, the dragon carp flicked its tail fin, and a hint of pride appeared in its turtle eyes. Only then did it open the door and let him in.
At this moment, the thunder wood swords fell one after another, and they tore apart the high clouds released by the dragon carp like cloth. However, this was the old demon's thousand years of cultivation to protect its body. Even if the tribulation thunder came, it could still withstand a few strikes. Those thunder swords also advanced like a hurricane in the beginning, but after a few hundred feet, they lost their strength.
Taoist Nun Qingyao stood on the cloud with a horsetail whisk in her hand. She saw everything clearly, and she sighed. "Senior Martial Brother, please stop. That dragon carp has at least a thousand years of cultivation, and its cultivation is at the same level as yours. If it's not a battle of life and death, the outcome will not be determined in a short period of time."
Hong Yuanzhong seemed to be hot-tempered, but he was also very meticulous. Just Now, he purposely did not ask about Zhang Yan and the others' background, because he was afraid that it would be difficult to make a move. Now that he had tested the waters, and seeing that he still could not deal with them, and hearing Taoist Nun Qingyao's words, he took advantage of the situation and stopped his technique. He summoned all the thunder wood swords, but he did not remove the thunder net that enveloped the heaven and earth. He said in a deep voice, "Which one of you is in charge, come up and talk to Daoren."
Zhang Yan took a step forward and went up to the dragon carp's back. The demon shrugged its body and soared into the sky. It reached the same height as the two of them, and Just Now, it stopped.
He cupped his fist and bowed. "I am Zhang Yan from Qincang School. Greetings, Fellow Daoists."
Taoist Nun Qingyao quickly returned the greeting. "Greetings, Fellow Daoists."
Hong Yuanzhong snorted coldly. "So you're from Qincang School. How did my Junior Martial Brother He offend you to the point that you had to resort to such a vicious attack?"
Zhang Yan smiled faintly. "There's a reason for this. Why don't we ask Pengyuan Sect's Mu Zhen to come up and explain it to us?"
"Pengyuan Sect?"
Hong Yuanzhong frowned. How could he not know what He Mulong was here for? That letter was personally written by him.
However, he also knew what kind of person this Junior Martial Brother was. He was afraid that he had used some sinister tricks again, which caused others to be unable to tolerate it anymore. That was why he asked for help, and in the end, he lost his own sect.
He flicked his sleeves and shouted, "There's no need for that. Junior Martial Brother He was not skilled enough, so he lost to Fellow Daoist Zhang. That was his own humiliation. However, as a disciple of Taihao School, we can't just let him die in vain. Daoren will personally go to Mystical Water True Palace to reason with Qi Yuntian. Fellow Daoist Zhang, just wait!"
