As Elder Kim fled towards the Jade Plate, he heard another rumble behind him. His body couldn't help but tremble. Even without looking, he knew that if he stayed behind, he wouldn't be able to survive.
However, the flight light beneath him didn't slow down at all. In an instant, he returned to the Jade Plate and knelt before He Yizhu with an ashamed expression. He apologized, "Sect Master, I didn't know that Shang Qingjun had brought a powerful transcendent artifact. This subordinate was useless and wasn't his opponent."
After losing two Elders consecutively, Elder Kim fled without a fight, He Yizhu's expression didn't look too good. However, this wasn't the time to pursue the matter. He helped him up and comforted him, "I've already seen it. This isn't Elder Kim's fault."
Elder Kim took the opportunity to stand up and cupped his hands, "Sect Master, this person is really hard to defeat. Furthermore, we don't know if he has a hidden helper. We're only two days away from the mountain gate. Why don't we discuss this after we return?"
He Yizhu originally had the same intention, but with his status, it wasn't convenient for him to say it. Now that he had a way out, he took advantage of the situation and slammed the table, "Damn it. If I had brought the Chaotic Heaven Pill out, why would I be afraid of him?"
This wasn't nonsense. The Chaotic Heaven Pill was Ku Xin Sect's sect-guarding transcendent artifact. It was personally refined by the sect's founding master. With this artifact on him, he dared to go down and fight. It was just that during this trip, an Elder of the sect happened to borrow a pill furnace, so he couldn't bring it out.
At this moment, the two of them suddenly felt a tremor beneath their feet. A rumbling sound could be heard as the Jade Plate of the Four Seas shook again. It was obvious that Shang Qingjun was exerting his strength to attack again.
He Yizhu snorted and made a hand seal. A constellation diagram appeared on the Jade Plate of the Four Seas, forming a restrictive formation. Layers of dense clouds surged out and covered the entire area. Not long after, the formation became stable and motionless.
He Yizhu waved his jade ruler and was about to control the jade plate to leave when he heard a voice coming from below, "He Zhangmen, please come out and meet me. Otherwise, I'll kill all of you."
He Yizhu was startled, and then anger appeared in his eyes.
Other than the three Elders, there were hundreds of them. Usually, when the Dong Sheng Sect fought against each other, they would be cautious and rarely make things difficult for the younger generation. They didn't expect that the other party would use this as a threat. Now that things had come to this, he had no choice but to show up. He said coldly, "Elder Kim, take charge of the array pivot for me. I'll go meet him personally."
Elder Kim was very anxious. He grabbed his sleeve and tried to dissuade him, "Sect Leader, you can't!"
He Yizhu flung him off and said impatiently, "There's no need to say anything more. Hundreds of lives are at stake, how can I sit back and do nothing?"
If it was someone else here and they suddenly encountered a strong enemy, they would still be able to protect themselves and retreat. However, as the Sect Leader of a sect, he knew that his sect was in trouble, yet he ignored it and left. Not only would he lose face, it would also be difficult for him to sit in this position in the future.
Elder Kim also understood the logic behind this. He could only say, "Then Sect Leader, you must be careful of his talisman."
He Yizhu nodded and said, "Elder Kim, you worry too much. I have the Good Auspicious Pill to protect me. Even if I can't win, I can still escape."
He raised his finger and pointed. A pearl-like pill flew out and landed on the top of his head.
Once the pill appeared in mid-air, it started to spin rapidly. Streaks of jade-colored light shone down and covered his whole body. Then, he waved his jade ruler and went down to the jade plate.
When he reached the bottom, he turned around and saw that the hundreds of people were wrapped up in a yellow fog. They were like insects in a cocoon. He suppressed his anger and said in a deep voice, "Shang Qingjun, why did you attack my mount and kill my sect members? Are you trying to start a war between the two sects? "
Facing his questioning, Shang Qingjun acted as if nothing had happened. He only slowly stretched out his hand and said, "Hand over the elemental beads and I'll spare your lives."
When He Yizhu heard this, he couldn't help but stare at his face. He said, "I was wondering why. So you're here for the orb. What if I don't hand it over?"
As he said this, he took out a copper bell from his sleeve and hid it in his sleeve.
Shang Qingjun raised his hand. The yellow fog not far away twisted and in a split second, dozens of people were crushed into a bloody pulp.
He Yizhu said angrily, "Stop!"
Shang Qingjun said expressionlessly, "If you don't hand over the elemental beads, this will be your outcome."
He Yizhu took a deep breath and gritted his teeth. "If that's the case, then … give me your life!"
He suddenly shouted and took out the copper bell in his hand. He lifted the lid and waved it at Shang Qingjun. In an instant, a cluster of clear light poured down.
Shang Qingjun didn't expect him to suddenly make a move. He stood there in a daze and was immediately hit by the clear light.
He Yizhu was overjoyed. This treasure had the effect of cutting off spiritual vigor. Once a cultivator was hit by it, he couldn't use any talisman or Taoist techniques anymore.
Just as he was about to order his men to capture him, he saw the figure below slowly disappear. Then, it turned into a four feet long black sword.
The corner of his eyes twitched. How could he not know that he had been tricked? He hurriedly retreated. But it was already too late. Two rays of yellow light came attacking from above. With a bang, it hit his body and he couldn't help but tremble violently.
Luckily, he had the protection of the Good Auspicious Pill. Although the light was fierce, it didn't hurt him. But even so, a layer of the treasure light was shaken off. Seeing that he couldn't take it anymore, he immediately wanted to retreat.
He looked up and saw that the two yellow rays above him were blocking the way back to the Jade Plate. He roared and activated the secret technique of the Ku Xin Sect. Three flames leaped out from the High Cloud above him. They were green, white, and red in color. They gathered in the middle and intertwined into a ball. Immediately, a blazing cloud of fire that was a thousand feet wide was formed, trying to break open a path.
But the two rays of yellow light only rushed forward lightly and swept away the flames. Then, they crossed each other like a pair of scissors. The treasure light on He Yizhu's body was already fading at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Seeing this, he couldn't help but panic. He could only say loudly, "Wait, I'm willing to give you the treasure bead. But you have to let me go."
Shang Qingjun spread out his hand and said, "Give it to me."
He Yizhu had no choice but to take out the Nine-Yellow Bead. Just when he wanted to state some conditions, he felt that his hand was empty. The bead had already flown away.
Shang Qingjun opened his mouth and swallowed the bead. He didn't care about him anymore and flew away.
But just as he broke through the High Cloud and reached the High Heaven, the magic sword suddenly trembled and broke free from his mana control. A voice in the sword said angrily, "Guo Yuan Jun, why didn't you kill them all?"
The person called Guo Yuan Jun said plainly, "He Yizhu is a sect master. If he was killed, it would be too big of a problem. It's very easy to provoke the people from the Heavenly Abode behind him. My body is still sealed, so I don't want to cause any trouble."
The voice in the sword said again, "But you said that as long as I help you with the sword, you won't implicate my sect. Just Now, you're clearly trying to frame me!"
Guo Yuan Jun said calmly, "Then what do you want?"
"If you don't resolve this matter, I won't help you."
Guo Yuan Jun's voice suddenly turned cold. He said, "Do you really think that I can't do anything without you?"
The person in the sword was also unyielding. He said, "You said the appearance of the person holding the bead. According to my deduction, he should be the person in charge of the Celestial City of Mount Shen Wu, Priest Zhang. This person's Sword Escape Technique is brilliant. If I don't help you with my magic sword, don't even think about taking him down."
Guo Yuan Jun's eyes darkened. He said, "Is this person really as powerful as you say?"
The person in the sword only snorted.
Guo Yuan Jun said in a low voice, "The Four Seas Jade Plate's restriction is strong. He Yizhu is already like a bird startled by the twang of a bow. There's no chance to kill him. If worst comes to worst, I'll help your Fengxiang Sword School after your two sects fight."
After saying this, he waited for a while. Seeing that the person in the sword did not say anything, it was obvious that he agreed. A strange smile appeared on his face. He stretched out his hand to summon the sword. Then, he guided a swift escape light and flew toward the North Continent.
Five days later, Hongyu Mountain, Guangchi Peak.
The Soaring Hall was shrouded in an oppressive atmosphere at the moment.
Chen Yuan's expression was solemn. He looked at the four Elders and said, "I've summoned all of you here to inform you of something. Just Now, He Zhangmen sent someone to say that Brother Shang killed two of his Elders and hundreds of people on his way. If you don't hand over Shang Qingjun and give him a satisfactory explanation, he'll personally come here with more than ten thousand people to seek justice."
As soon as he said this, the Elders' faces were filled with disbelief.
Rainbow Sword Master Zhu Xuan had a look of disbelief on his face. He said, "I know Brother Shang's abilities very well. The accompanying Elders of Ku Xin Sect might not be his match, but it's absolutely impossible for him to kill He Zhangmen and his hundreds of people!"
Great Elder Long Jingcheng cupped his hands and said, "Sect Leader, is there a misunderstanding? Isn't Brother Shang in Kwantam-in? Why would he kill He Zhangmen halfway? "
Chen Yuan said in a deep voice, "I'm worried about this. What if it's really Brother Shang's doing?"
Long Jingcheng widened his eyes and said, "Sect Leader, you mean it's that seal …"
He seemed to know that he had said something wrong and quickly stopped. However, how could the Elders not figure out the meaning behind his words? They couldn't help but look at each other.
Shang Qingjun didn't have such an ability, but if he took the opportunity when they were attending the banquet in Northern Continent and secretly took the item, it would be very hard to say.
Chen Yuan looked to one side and said, "Elder Xu, has Brother Shang sent any letter recently?"
Elder Xu replied, "Letters are only sent every seven days. If there's nothing, they should arrive today."
Chen Yuan said resolutely, "There's no need to wait. Elder Xu, you go to Kwantam-in immediately and don't investigate this matter."
Fengxiang sword school had spent over a hundred years for that seal, so there must be no mistakes.
Elder Xu solemnly cupped his fists and said, "I will obey your order."
Long Jingcheng stroked his beard and said, "The situation is really hard to predict now, but we still have to be wary of Ku Xin Sect's revenge. It's not appropriate for Elder Xu to go alone. It's better to send another person to go with him."
Chen Yuan nodded and said, "That's right. We must be careful. Junior Brother Zhu, you go with Elder Xu."
Zhu Xuan did not accept the order immediately. Instead, he raised his head and said, "If we meet Brother Shang, what should we do?"
Chen Yuan was silent for a moment. He untied a magic sword from his waist and threw it down. He said, "We must first investigate if he is the one who did the Ku Xin Sect incident. If he is really the culprit, ask him if he is willing to come back. If he is willing, treat him nicely and calm him down. If he is unwilling, use my Imperial Sword to cut him down and bring his head back."
