"What should we do now?" Old Monster Meng Shan asked anxiously.
"What can we do? The Senate has already received the news and will send people over at any time. Junwang Fei Huya and a few Nascent Soul cultivators close to Dongfang have already arrived at the Innocuous Lake. Dongfang still has supporters in the Senate, and I reckon that many people will be happy to do a favor to an alchemy grandmaster. "Yuan Tianfang took a deep breath and said," Things can't be done, goodbye! "
With that, Yuan Tianfang led the Yuan family cultivators and left the Innocuous Lake.
Xiao Jinlei clenched his fists so hard that they creaked as he looked at the teleportation array angrily.
"Patriarch Xiao, you have mobilized people here. Seeing that Grandmaster Dongfang has arrived at the Innocuous Lake, you did not lend a helping hand. Now, you are blocking the teleportation array. What do you want?" An extremely cold voice sounded. A figure flashed and arrived at the bottom of the lake. Compared to the voice, the other party's expression was even colder.
Xiao Jinlei looked over, and his pupils immediately shrank. The person who came was Princess Yu Xin, Xiang Qingcheng, who was on good terms with Lu Xiaotian. The two people behind her were also great cultivators from the Senate. He did not expect the people from the Senate to come so quickly.
"Princess Yu Xin has misunderstood. When I heard that Grandmaster Dongfang was in trouble, I specially led the family's experts to help. Who knew that I still couldn't make it in time." No matter how arrogant Xiao Jinlei was, he did not dare to admit it in front of the Senate. In the Xiang Country, the Xiang Shi Royal Family still had absolute dominance. It was not something that the Xiao family alone could contend against.
"That's for the best!" When Xiang Qingcheng learned that Lu Xiaotian was in danger, she immediately rushed back. She did not even have time to meet up with Lu Wushuang and the others. In her anxiety, she directly came to the teleportation array. Of course, Xiang Qingcheng would not believe Xiao Jinlei's nonsense. She knew better than anyone about the grudge between Lu Xiaotian and the Xiao family.
However, with Xiao Jinlei's status, without conclusive evidence, Xiang Qingcheng could not do anything to him. It was only because she represented the Senate that she could enter the bottom of the Wushang Lake. As for Ji Wushuang, Huya, and the others, they didn't even have the chance to come here. They were blocked outside by the Xiao Family and the Yuan Family. Even if they tried to force their way in, with the strength of Lu Wushuang and the others, they would not be able to make it here.
"Since the Council of Elders has come in person, there's no need for this old man to do anything unnecessary. Farewell!" Xiao Jinlei cursed in his heart, but there was nothing he could do. Just as Yuan Tianfang said, this matter couldn't be done. If he had known this would happen, he would have left with Yuan Tianfang. It would have been better than looking at Xiang Qingcheng's expression now.
"Princess Jade Heart, it seems that Great Grandmaster Dongfang has already entered the Transmission array. The price of activating the Transmission array is not small, and the reason why Xiao Jinlei and Yuan Tianfang are guarding outside the Transmission array is probably because they are afraid of the dangers inside the secret realm. Grandmaster Dongfang had been here several times and was very familiar with this place, so he should be fine. The reason why he was not willing to come out was probably because he knew that Xiao Jinlei and Old Monster Meng did not have good intentions. Perhaps after a period of time, Great Grandmaster Dongfang will come out. "
Xiang Mingxin, whose black hair was as hard as needles, glanced at the broken Transmission array and said.
"That would be for the best. Otherwise …" The extremely sharp killing intent in Xiang Qingcheng's eyes was not concealed at all. After a while, Xiang Qingcheng's killing intent receded. He looked at Xiang Mingxin and Xiang Fu and said, "I'll have to trouble the two of you to wait in Wushang City for a while. I'll be leaving for a few days."
Xiang Mingxin and Xiang Fu, the two experts of the Council of Elders, nodded. They did not ask much about Xiang Qingcheng's temporary departure.
Xiang Qingcheng turned around and shot away.
"Sister Qingcheng!" Xiang Qingcheng had just emerged from the lake when Lu Wushuang came over. Seeing Xiang Qingcheng, she could not help but feel happy. Previously, the Yuan and Xiao Families had joined hands to seal off this lake region. Even she did not have the ability to approach. The Yuan and Xiao Families had just retreated when Lu Wushuang anxiously rushed over. She just happened to bump into Xiang Qingcheng, who had just turned around. "Did you see Little Brother?"
"No. You stay here for the time being. I have some things to take care of." Xiang Qingcheng shook his head. In front of Lu Wushuang, he did not have the coldness that he had in front of outsiders. He could not help but reveal a hint of anxiety between his brows.
"What's more important than waiting for Little Brother to come out?" Lu Wushuang's puzzled tone carried a hint of dissatisfaction. Back when Xiang Qingcheng was in trouble in the stone cave, it was all thanks to Lu Xiaotian's care that he was able to escape danger and keep his life. Could it be that Xiang Qingcheng had only come to take a look and then left?
"The other side of the teleportation formation is extremely dangerous. I came in too much of a hurry and did not have time to prepare. I will go to the Black Prison of Xiang Du to bring a few people over. Also, the Red Spider Lilies are extremely difficult to collect. The few times they appeared in the past, they were all taken by the East. I still have to ask Great Grandmaster Kuang Yang to use his connections to see if he can collect enough leaves or petals to open the teleportation formation. When the time comes, I will check out the situation at the other side of the teleportation formation, "Xiang Qingcheng explained.
"I see. Sister Qingcheng, you have a way." Lu Wushuang could only sigh when she thought of how she was blocked outside by the Xiao Clan and the Yuan Clan. She could not defeat them and could only watch anxiously. In the past, when Lu Xiaotian was here, even in a place like Xiang Du where crooks mixed with honest folk, Lu Wushuang had never encountered any big trouble. However, after Lu Xiaotian left, Lu Wushuang and his companions felt that they, as Great Demons, were far from being able to do as they pleased in Xiang Country. Once they had a little conflict with these big Xiuxian clans, they might not necessarily be taken seriously by the other party. Lu Xiaotian, the backbone of their group, could not be missing.
"I, Huya, and a few others will stay here. Sister Qingcheng, you should go and come back quickly."
Xiang Qingcheng nodded. Time was precious. She did not stay any longer and flew away on her sword. In fact, she was no less worried about Lu Xiaotian than Lu Wushuang and the rest.
More than ten days later, Xiang Qingcheng led a group of five people behind her. All of them had cultivations ranging from Early Nascent Soul Stage to Mid Nascent Soul Stage. Along the way, she suddenly saw a familiar figure in the wilderness. Xiang Qingcheng's eyes flashed. Her speed was much faster than before. Her sword flashed past and directly blocked the figure.
"Princess Yuxin, what a coincidence." Xiang Yihang secretly cursed his bad luck. When he was schemed against by Lu Xiaotian in the Black Sky Mountain Range, he barely managed to escape with his life and entered a temporary hiding place to heal his injuries. However, Lu Xiaotian's flying sword sliced off a piece of his skull and the sword intent entered his brain. Even if his magical power was stronger than Lu Xiaotian's, it was extremely difficult to get rid of the raging sword intent in his brain. Moreover, he was not stronger than Lu Xiaotian. He only temporarily stabilized his injuries. Every day, Xiang Yihang would feel a splitting headache, as if his head would be cut open by the misty sword intent at any time.
