In front of Jade Plume Pavilion's gates, Yan Xiyue's hair was covered in pearls and jade, and she wore a robe of phoenix feathers. She sat diagonally on the back of a female swallow, a large red swallow with a wingspan of thirty meters. Scarlet tassels hung down from its body, making it look like a cloud of fire.
A large scarlet canopy hung from her phoenix coronet, its surface embroidered with twining branches and intertwining flowers. It was tied to a hundred red ropes and black silk knots that hung down from the canopy. Below them hung a Hundred Fate Bead. When the wind blew past, it would ring out crisp sounds from time to time, and it would also draw out streams of light.
Jade Plume Pavilion had brought out all of its resources for the sake of showing off the sect's foundation. There were more than two hundred maids standing in front of the gate, all of them floating in the air. Beneath them were Hundred Flower Rings that were several kilometers long. A dignified and well-endowed woman stood at the very front of the maids, holding a golden branch and silver dew vase in her hand.
Behind her was a pair of twin sisters, each of them holding a skirt covering bowl with a clear stream. The older sister on her left held a Sunbearing Myriad Seed Lotus, while the younger sister held a Moon Embracing Harmony Flower.
Behind the two of them was a pair of servant girls with identical appearances, each holding a large round fan. Further behind them was a pair of boys, holding a luan and phoenix cup. The rest of the servant girls all carried green baskets, sprinkling beads and flower petals. Fragrant clouds rose, and auspicious light overflowed in all directions.
However, Yan Xiaoyang, who was standing next to Yan Xiyue, had an unwilling expression on his face. He said, "Sister, are you really going to become dao companions with that Han Zuocheng? I heard he's half human, half demon, and not of our race. He's not a good match for you. As long as you say the word, your little brother will immediately take you back and ignore them. "
Yan Xiyue glared at him and rebuked, "Little brother, what nonsense are you spouting? Sister, let me tell you, when the people from Clear Nether Manor arrive, don't say such things again, or else I'll have to ask you to leave."
Yan Xiaoyang shut his mouth resentfully.
At this moment, the beautiful madam walked over with a happy expression. She said, "First lady, the young master has arrived. The young master has arrived. "
Yan Xiyue looked over and saw a golden flood dragon soaring through the clouds up ahead. A handsome young man stood on the dragon's head, dressed in a black robe. She wore a pleated skirt that covered her knees and a pair of high-heeled shoes. Behind her were more than ten strong men dressed in red.
Yan Xiaoyang saw that only a few people had come, completely unable to compare to his side. He couldn't help but curl his lips and say, "Bright Nether Heavenly Lake is only so-so."
Not to mention him. Even the few Elders of Jade Feather Pavilion frowned as they watched. The Clear Nether Heavenly Lake was also a blessed land, and Zhang Yan was the First Seat of the Ten Great Disciples. If his disciples were to marry, it would not be so shabby. Could it be that he looked down on this disciple of his? Thinking of this … They looked at Han Zuocheng with a strange gaze.
Yan Xiyue was faintly disappointed. Although she didn't attach much importance to these superficial things, her husband's actions inevitably made it seem like they were looking down on her.
At this moment, there was a rumble in the air, like a thunderclap, and the clouds parted. Out came a flying palace with four great pavilions at each of its four corners. It was five hundred zhang wide and took up almost half the sky from below. Clouds curled around it, and one could even hear the dance of cranes and the cry of phoenixes. An Elder of Jade Feather Pavilion couldn't help but cry out in surprise, "The Lofty Cloud Tower?"
The Lofty Cloud Tower was forged from the Earthfire Heavenly Furnace. Only the Ten Great Disciples of Qincang School could ride it. It was rumored that it could even block the attacks of Heaven Grotto-Heaven cultivators. They didn't expect that Zhang Yan would actually take it out and lend it to this disciple. This time, they couldn't help but reevaluate Han Zuocheng's status in Bright Nether Sect.
Yan Xiaoyang muttered a few times, "What's so rare about it? It's all thanks to Master's kindness. It's not like it's our own."
Han Zuocheng rode the Golden Flood Dragon up. When he arrived in front of Yan Xiyue, he looked at his bride, stretched out his hand, and said warmly, "Wife, Master was afraid that the journey would not be peaceful, so he borrowed the Lofty Cloud Tower to come down. Why don't you accompany your husband up the Lofty Cloud Tower?"
When Yan Xiyue heard this form of address, her charming face blushed slightly. She lowered her head, gave a low grunt of agreement, and put her soft hand on his hand.
Han Zuocheng tightly gripped it, took two steps forward, and then stopped. Yan Xiyue looked at him in confusion. He laughed, and said, "Master bestowed me two Flying Starpivot Palaces before I left. After some thought, we are husband and wife, so one is enough. There's no harm in leaving the other one for little brother."
Yan Xiyue's beautiful eyes lit up, and she said happily, "Husband is truly considerate."
Yan Xiaoyang snorted, but didn't want to accept this invitation. However, that beautiful woman pushed him from behind, and he could only say stiffly, "Thank you, Fellow Daoist Han."
Han Zuocheng laughed, "No need to be polite, little brother. In the future, we will all be one family."
Yan Xiaoyang cursed inwardly, "Who's one family with you?"
Guests had gathered in the Bright Nether Heavenly Lake at this moment, and those who were on good terms with the various clans had all come with congratulatory gifts. However, Han Zuocheng was only Zhang Yan's disciple, after all, so apart from a few elders of small sects, most of the people who came were juniors.
Among them, there was a green-robed cultivator whose eyes flickered wildly. After walking in a circle, he found a secluded place, lit a short incense, and then silently prayed. When the incense burned out, he inhaled the white ash into his stomach, leaving not a single trace behind. Then, he calmly returned to the main hall.
Zhang Yan sat in front of the small mirror, watching every single movement of this person Just Now. He had the Head Seat's seal, so he recognized this person's identity after a slight examination. It seemed like he had already seen three of these demonic sect spies Just Now, and all of them came from the master and disciple sects. He hadn't seen a single disciple of an aristocratic family.
However, he wasn't surprised by this. The origins of disciples under the master and disciple sects were complicated. Some were born in the nine cities, and some were recruited from outside the mountains. Aristocratic families lived together, and most of them were of the same bloodline. It was very difficult for outsiders to sneak in.
Mirror Spirit said, "Master, do you want me to arrest them?"
Zhang Yan smiled, "No need. These three people are still useful. Don't disturb them."
Outside the Clear Nether Heavenly Lake, two disciples of the demonic sect were also watching from afar. Daoren stroked his beard and said, "Just Now, our fellow disciples in Qincang School sent a letter. Liu Yanyi and Wei Zihong are both here. It seems that you and I are worrying too much. It shouldn't be a big deal."
The black-robed Taoist was very suspicious. He always felt that something was wrong. He said in a deep voice, "Brother, you don't have to make a conclusion first. As long as the wedding banquet hasn't been canceled, we can't be idle. Also, we need to pay attention to the top ten disciples. But I don't have enough people to take care of them. Brother, do you have any ideas?"
Daoren glanced at him but didn't say anything.
The black-robed Taoist said earnestly, "Brother, don't be careless. If Zhang Yan purposely set up a banquet to attract our attention here and make some other arrangements, it will be a big crime if we lose our disciples because of this."
Daoren laughed at his suspicion. But when he thought about the torture in the sect, he was also terrified. He thought about it and finally said, "Brother, you are making things difficult for me. But we really can't be careless. I will think of a way."
At the same time. Peng Yuzhou had already passed through the Sea's Eye Devil's Cave under the Shouming Palace and reached the surface. He looked around and saw two figures waiting there. He said coldly, "Are you two Junior Brother Zhang's disciples?"
One of them said, "Junior Nephew Peng, you are late."
Peng Yuzhou heard this title. He was first angry, then confused. Then, he looked over as if he thought of something. When he saw the other person's appearance, he said in disbelief, "Elder Han?"
At this moment, another person walked out and sighed, "In terms of cultivation, Junior Nephew Peng couldn't compare to us. Martial Nephew Peng, you still can't compare to us, but who would have thought that you would be one step ahead of us? "
Peng Yuzhou took a step back and looked over. He said in shock, "Elder Cai? Why are you here? Didn't you two get chased out of the sect? "
Han Wangke said, "Thanks to Junior Uncle Shen's help, we can return to the sect. This time, we are also under Junior Uncle Shen's orders. We will help Junior Brother Zhang to deal with the Demon Tribulation. "
He looked at Peng Yuzhou with a complicated expression. He heard that this junior nephew was afraid of that senior uncle and didn't dare to go to the Sixteen Sects Spell Conference to fight. Later on, the Chen tribe forced him to give up his position. But even so, he cultivated in the Daylight Hall of the Floating Celestial Palace and improved much faster than the two of them. Why would they waste their time outside? They would probably be able to cultivate to the middle of the third stage. Because of the delay, their lifespan was almost up and they had no hope of entering the Grotto-Heaven. However, they could return to the sect, and they could still take in disciples and reincarnate in the future.
He shook his head and said, "The matter at hand is urgent, so let's not talk too much. Junior Nephew Peng, your cultivation is the highest here, why don't you take charge of this matter?"
Peng Yuzhou hurriedly waved his hand and said, "To be frank, I'm just a sinner. With the two uncle-masters here, how would I dare to take charge?"
Just Now, Han Wangke was just being polite. He nodded and said, "If that's the case, then there's no need to delay. We will depart now."
Peng Yuzhou naturally agreed.
The three of them used their escape techniques and flew towards the west. To prevent the cultivators of the Demon Sect from detecting them, they didn't enter the Extreme Heaven. Instead, they flew on the surface. After two days and two nights, Green Bull Mountain was already in sight. However, the turbid air in front of them shot up into the sky. There were flashes of spiritual light and tremors. It seemed like there were quite a number of people attacking the Mountain Guarding Formation.
Han Wangke didn't rush forward. Instead, he stopped and looked up for a moment. He asked, "Junior Brother Peng, how far can your Forbidden Locking Technique go?"
Peng Yuzhou replied, "Normally, it's six to seven miles. If I use my full strength, it can barely reach ten miles. However, it can only last for two hours at most."
Han Wangke couldn't help but lower his head and think. Just Now, he saw that there were four rays of light in front of Green Bull Mountain. However, they weren't gathered in one place. Instead, they were separated by a few miles. It was obvious that they were guarding against the Heaven and Earth Forbidden Locking Technique. That was why they purposely split up to avoid being caught in one fell swoop.
According to the letter, there were at least five Nascent Soul Elders on the other side, and one of them was nowhere to be seen at the moment. Either they had left a long time ago, or they were hiding to the side in case someone suddenly launched a surprise attack. He speculated that it was most likely the latter.
From this, it could be seen that the cultivators of the Demon Sect were cunning and ruthless. They weren't easy to deal with.
He couldn't help but feel that it was troublesome. He wasn't afraid of them, but he was afraid that if he rushed forward, he would scare them away. If that happened, they could at most leave one or two people behind.
Peng Yuzhou thought for a moment. His eyes flickered. "Martial nephew has a plan that can break out of the current situation."
Han Wangke nodded and looked at him expectantly. "Martial nephew, please speak."
Peng Yuzhou said, "Elder Han, you can send a letter to Linqing Monastery to pretend that the formation is broken and let these four people in. Then, you can close the formation door. We can first deal with the devil sect cultivators outside, including the person hiding in the dark. Then, we can go back and kill the four people."
Han Wangke closed his eyes. This plan wasn't bad, but if the four cultivators of the Demon Sect killed their way into Linqing Monastery, even if the two Yuanying elders could stop them, they would suffer heavy losses.
This was actually using the lives of the disciples of Linqing Monastery to exchange for a chance to kill the cultivators of the Demon Sect. Moreover, under such a dangerous situation, they had no other choice. If they succeeded, they would have a chance to kill all the people of the Demon Sect here. However, this would be using their fellow cultivators as bait. Should they do it or not?
