Old Man Xuan You was at his wit's end and had no choice but to unleash the forbidden technique. Everyone in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension fell into a state of panic. With his cultivation, he could destroy the entire Intentionless City with just a little bit of his power. If no one stopped him, all lives would be lost.
However, no one had expected that a woman would come to the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension at such a critical moment.
A mass of white light slowly rose from the east side of the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension. The mass of light was a little cold, like a lotus flower on a snowy mountain. However, it did not make one feel cold. Instead, it made one feel relaxed and happy.
"That's!"
Old Man Xuan You's expression froze as he stared blankly at the horizon. His entire body was frozen on the spot. The forbidden technique in his body had not stopped. He could not stop it even if he wanted to. However, it was as if an invisible hand had gripped his body, causing him to be unable to use any of his power. It was all trapped within his body.
Because the power of the forbidden technique was terrifying, it was all trapped within his body. If it could not be released, it would continue to destroy his body.
Old Man Xuan You was so depressed that he could not even cry. It was that woman! That woman had actually come to the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension!
He felt that he had never been so unlucky in his life. He had come to this tiny Green Ancient Mystery Dimension only to fail miserably and be forced to use the forbidden technique, cutting off his future path of cultivation. In the end, the taboo technique was used, and before he could take revenge, it was forcefully stuffed back into his body. Instead, it destroyed his internal organs.
His body, which had been crippled from using the forbidden technique, was now even more severely damaged.
A ball of white light approached slowly. There was a beautiful figure in the light, dressed in a palace gown the color of the moon.
Everyone looked at the ball of light. The entire world was silent. No one dared to speak or even breathe too loudly, as if the slightest sound would disturb the woman.
It was a beautiful young woman with skin of ice and bones of jade. She was as cold as frost, and a pair of empty eyes seemed to reflect the entire world.
Mo Wen had never seen this woman before. However, the aura on her body had a feeling of emptiness and emptiness, as though it was illusory.
"Palace Lord Nie, why are you here?" Old Man Xuan You's voice was dry, and the expression on his face was worse than if he had just swallowed a fly.
Nie Wuxin! The Second Palace Lord of Huatian Palace! She was a woman who could strike fear into the hearts of the people of the Peng Lai Deity Realm. This woman had killed countless high-level cultivators in her life. Back then, the Ghost King of the Ghost Lair had been killed by her sword because he had taken a second glance at her. She had not given the Hades Mountain any face.
In the Peng Lai Immortal Realm, all the cultivators feared her like a tiger. She was listed on the list of people they could not afford to offend.
In the entire Huatian Palace, Nie Wuxin's cultivation was second only to the Grand Palace Lord, Xiao Hongyu. However, she was far more difficult to deal with than Xiao Hongyu. At least Xiao Hongyu was reasonable, but this woman did not know what reason was.
Meeting this woman, Old Man Xuan You lost all temper. He knew very well how frightening this woman was. Rumor had it that even the Huatian Palace Grand Palace Lord, Xiao Hongyu, was unwilling to provoke her.
"Xuan You, you asked me why I came to the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension?"
Nie Wuxin looked at Old Man Xuan You calmly. Her voice was very calm, but it was this calm voice that caused Old Man Xuan You to sink into extreme fear.
"No … no … I'm just curious. Why would someone as important as Palace Lord Nie come to a place like the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension?" Old Man Xuan You said with a long face. Everyone in the world knew that Nie Wuxin was a difficult person to talk to. One wrong word and someone might die.
"Then I'd like to ask you this. Why would a dignified Sword Valley Lord like you come to the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension? Also, have you filed a record with the Huatian Palace? If you haven't, then you've snuck out and broken the law. The consequences are very serious, you know? "
Nie Wuxin said calmly. On the surface, she seemed like a very easy person to talk to, but Old Man Xuan You felt a chill run up his spine, and he could not help but shiver.
"Palace Lord Nie, I've been wronged. I was exploring an ancient ruin when I was accidentally transported here. I didn't know that this was the main space, and the people in this space were very hostile toward me. That's how we ended up in conflict … You know, our Sword Valley has been following the Huatian Palace for generations, and we absolutely abide by the Huatian Palace's laws. We never dared to violate them …"
Old Man Xuan You would rather die than admit that he had snuck in from a heretic organization. If he was convicted, he would not be the only one to die. The entire sect would be implicated.
Now that things had come to this, Old Man Xuan You could only play the emotional card and hope that Nie Wuxin would spare his life on account of the fact that the Sword Valley had been following the Huatian Palace for generations.
"Oh, you're really lucky. You can find a new passage in any ruin," Nie Wuxin said calmly.
"Lucky, lucky …" Old Man Xuan You kept wiping away his cold sweat. He did not dare to move an inch as he stood in front of Nie Wuxin. Although his cultivation was not low and was enough to dominate the Peng Lai Immortal Realm, Nie Wuxin could probably destroy him with just a wave of her hand.
"As the Valley Leader of the Sword Valley, you came to the main space to cause trouble. You can be spared from death, but you can't escape punishment."
Nie Wuxin said expressionlessly.
"Please punish me, Palace Lord Nie!"
Old Man Xuan You breathed a sigh of relief in his heart and hurriedly bowed, looking like he was admitting his guilt. Actually, he knew that the chances of Nie Wuxin killing him were not high. Although it was true that he had snuck into the main space, the Huatian Palace did not have concrete evidence. Like what he had said earlier, he had been exploring an ancient ruin and then mysteriously transported here. That made sense. There were indeed many such mysterious ruins in the Peng Lai Immortal Realm. As long as there was no concrete evidence, he could not be accused of having snuck in intentionally.
And he was the Valley Leader of the Sword Valley, a dignified sect leader. As long as there was no concrete evidence, it was not easy to kill him. Perhaps the Huatian Palace did not care about the Sword Valley, but there were too many sects in the Peng Lai Immortal Realm. If he was executed without any evidence, it would definitely cause the sects in the Peng Lai Immortal Realm to be displeased. As the ruler, if he were to kill someone without any evidence, all the major sects in the Peng Lai Immortal Realm would feel insecure. Even the Huatian Palace would have to consider the pressure of public opinion.
Of course, if it had been another Huatian Palace Lord here, Old Man Xuan You would not have worried that he would be killed. But Nie Wuxin was different. Others might not, but Nie Wuxin might. That was why he was so afraid of Nie Wuxin.
Fortunately, Nie Wuxin restrained herself a little and did not kill him because she did not like him. If she had said that, he would probably not have died.
"Then you shall face the wall and reflect on your mistakes. From now on, you are not allowed to take a step out of the Sword Valley for a thousand years. Also, the disciples of the Sword Valley are not allowed to take a step out of the Peng Lai Immortal Realm, "Nie Wuxin said lightly.
Facing the wall and reflecting on his mistakes was not a heavy punishment, but it was for a thousand years. That was a different story.
Old Man Xuan You almost fainted when he heard that. Being grounded for a thousand years? Was she kidding? He might be a Supreme Profundity Realm cultivator, but how many thousand years did he have in his life?
Moreover, she actually forbade the people of the Sword Valley from leaving the Peng Lai Immortal Realm. That was equivalent to cutting off all contact between the Sword Valley and the outside world. Moreover, this also meant that the people of the Sword Valley could no longer come to the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension to seek revenge. If Mo Wen hid in the main space, the Sword Valley would not be able to do anything.
Because of this punishment, even if the people of the Sword Valley could sneak out, they would not dare to come to the main space easily. Once they were discovered by the Huatian Palace, they would be accused of a crime. When that time came, the Huatian Palace would have a justifiable reason to do anything to them, and no one would be able to say anything.
He finally understood why the Huatian Palace strictly forbade the cultivators of the Peng Lai Immortal Realm from coming to the main space, especially during this period of time. Indeed, there was someone in the Huatian Palace protecting Mo Wen, not wanting them to come out and cause trouble for him.
But he would never have dreamed that the person protecting Mo Wen would actually be this terrifying woman, Nie Wuxin. Since when did Mo Wen and Nie Wuxin get involved?
He could not understand it, and he was very indignant and angry. He had paid such a huge price, even using a forbidden technique that cut off his path to immortality. Not only did he not get revenge, but he was also grounded for a thousand years, and no one else from the Sword Valley could come to seek revenge in the future.
He knew that Nie Wuxin was protecting Mo Wen, but she was being too protective. She grounded us for a thousand years just to protect this brat?
"Palace Lord Nie …" Old Man Xuan You's heart was pounding. This was too much of a bully.
"What? Do you have any objections? "Nie Wuxin glanced at Old Man Xuan You lightly. She was very calm, as if she was not angry at all.
But Old Man Xuan You shuddered. He did not finish his sentence, and he did not dare to say another word for a long time.
"I wouldn't dare." Old Man Xuan You looked like he was on the verge of tears. He knew that there was no way he could reason with this woman.
"Scram," Nie Wuxin said lightly.
"Then I'll take my leave."
Old Man Xuan You took a deep breath and cupped his fists. His teeth were almost crushed from gritting them, but he could only turn around and leave with indignation and anger. He was afraid that if he did not leave now, he would not even have the chance to leave.
"Also, help me pass on a message when you get back. Say that I, Nie Wuxin, will be cultivating in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension for a hundred years. No matter who or what their motives are, I hope that they will not disturb my cultivation here. Otherwise, they will bear the consequences," Nie Wuxin said coldly.
Old Man Xuan You almost fainted when he heard that. Nie Wuxin wanted to cultivate in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension for a hundred years? Was she kidding? What was there to cultivate in a lousy place like the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension? You didn't have to do this just to protect Mo Wen. Who was he to you?
Old Man Xuan You could not believe his ears. Nie Wuxin was actually going to cultivate in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension for a hundred years? Naturally, he knew who Nie Wuxin wanted him to pass on the message to. If Nie Wuxin was really going to cultivate in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension for a hundred years, those sects would not dare to cause trouble even if they were given a hundred guts.
Nie Wuxin's words had directly cut off the possibility of those sects coming to the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension. They could not afford to offend this woman.
But was she really going to cultivate in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension for a hundred years? Even if she wanted to protect Mo Wen, she did not have to go to this extent.
