Two beams of light approached from afar. The one in the lead was Zhu Yan, the True Immortal who had temporarily taken the Yunxia Sect under her command. The other beam of light was Yun Chongyi and Yun Xia Fairy.

Seeing that Lu Xiaotian was still fine, Yun Chongyi was greatly relieved. At the same time, he was also somewhat surprised. Logically speaking, with the speed at which Yun Xia Fairy had notified them and returned, the battle should have already begun. Lu Xiaotian should have been unable to hold on long ago. The battle should have already ended, and Wu Zhongli should have already left. The current situation was one where the two sides were at daggers drawn. However, Lu Xiaotian was not injured at all. This was very strange.
Yun Chongyi was not the only one who felt strange. Even Zhu Yan's pretty face was filled with confusion. She had known Wu Zhongli for a long time. His eyes were always on the top of his head. He was not very strong, but he was very arrogant. He did not even care about some of the new True Immortals from the Turtle Spirit Immortal Sect, let alone a small sect like the Yunxia Sect.
There was also Lü Yiming next to him. They surrounded Lu Xiaotian from the front and back. It seemed that they wanted to attack him from the front and back. Was it necessary to put on such a big show to deal with a mere True Immortal? What were Lü Yiming and Wu Zhongli doing?
"Upper Immortal Zhu, Elder Dongfang has only just broken through to the True Immortal Realm. He is not a match for the Upper Immortals from the Turtle Spirit Immortal Realm." Yun Chongyi looked at Zhu Yan with a worried expression. If Wu Zhongli was just an Earth Tool Immortal without any foundation, it would be fine. Even if he was strong, Yun Chongyi would still join forces with Lu Xiaotian to fight. However, the other party was from the Turtle Spirit Celestial Realm. If they wanted to fight against the other party with numbers, the situation would be difficult to deal with in the end.
Moreover, judging from the current situation, Wu Zhongli still had other helpers. If he rashly joined the battle, he would only further anger the other party and would not be able to alleviate the situation at all. Now, they could only pin their hopes on Zhu Yan, who was also from the Turtle Spirit Immortal Realm and whose status was not lower than Wu Zhongli and Lü Yiming.
"Wu Zhongli, Lü Yiming, the two of you sure are capable. To think that the two of you would end up besieging a loose immortal. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at if word of this gets out?" Zhu Yan nodded. Although Lu Xiaotian was a member of the Yunxia Sect, he was no different from an ordinary Itinerant Immortal to Zhu Yan. She had always been a very protective person. If she didn't, it would be difficult for a woman like her to command an immortal army. Moreover, Lü Yiming and Wu Zhongli did not have a very good relationship with her.
Lü Yiming immediately felt wronged and spread his hands. As for Wu Zhongli, his face was about to turn red because of Zhu Yan's words. He immediately gritted his teeth and said, "Zhu Yan, don't be so sarcastic. This kid is a bit strange. Although he has just become a True Immortal, his speed is extremely fast. If Brother Lu hadn't blocked for me, I wouldn't have been able to catch up with him. If it were you, you wouldn't have been any better than me."
It was true that he had not been able to catch up with Lu Xiaotian. However, Wu Zhongli did not think that Zhu Yan could catch up with him.
"Oh?" Zhu Yan, Yun Chongyi, Lü Yiming, Yun Xia Fairy, and the others all looked at Lu Xiaotian in surprise. They were all in different realms, but they could not figure out how Lu Xiaotian had done it.
"If you didn't catch up with him, then you didn't catch up with him. Don't drag others into it. The Red Cloud Immortal Sect is now under my command. What, you want to make a move against my people? "Zhu Yan was naturally not easy to deal with. She immediately retorted with a few words.
"Xiang Qingcheng, who came with me, went missing when he charged into the Mist Hall. I asked him about Xiang Qingcheng's whereabouts and taught him a lesson. I don't think it's a big problem," Wu Zhongli said with a frown.
"Little Sister Qingcheng is trapped in the Illusionary Mist Swamp." Zhu Yan's beautiful face changed. Then, she looked at Lu Xiaotian with a questioning look in her eyes. Obviously, she had a close relationship with Xiang Qingcheng.
Lu Xiaotian's expression remained the same. It seemed that Xiang Qingcheng had a deep connection with the Turtle Spirit Immortal Region. If others knew about his whereabouts, he would not be able to follow him easily. Although it would be safer for Xiang Qingcheng to stay in the Turtle Spirit Immortal Region, since he had promised Xiang Qingcheng, he could not go back on his word. At this time, it was not appropriate to let Zhu Yan and the others know about Xiang Qingcheng's whereabouts.
"At that time, Immortal Wu and his nephew brought three formation experts with them, two women and one man. They asked us to explore the way in front of the Mist Hall. The formations in the nine Mist Halls were extraordinarily powerful, and there were many True Immortal Realm werewolves. If Immortal Wu and his nephew were confident, why would they need others to test the waters in front of them? Since you were not confident, it was not strange that Fellow Daoist Xiang and I were separated for some reason, "Lu Xiaotian said in a flat tone.
"Nonsense! It was clearly your fault for not protecting him well enough!" Wu Zhongli was furious. He did not intend to let Lu Xiaotian continue. He formed a sword with his two fingers and pointed at Lu Xiaotian. A flying sword covered in raging flames slashed directly at Lu Xiaotian. Waves of flames rolled and radiated in all directions, adding a layer of faint flame to the surrounding space.
In the blink of an eye, Wu Zhongli began to affect the surrounding space with his own Celestial Core Power.
Zhu Yan frowned slightly and snorted inwardly. Both of them were not good people. No matter what reason Lu Xiaotian lost Xiang Qingcheng, she had to teach him a lesson. Since that was the case, it was better to let Wu Zhongli do it. After that, she would teach Wu Zhongli a lesson. As for Xiang Qingcheng, Zhu Yan sighed inwardly. She was also helpless. Trapped in the Howling Moon Wolf Clan's array, she was also helpless. Otherwise, Wu Yanshan and his nephew would not have returned empty-handed, especially when Wu Yanshan was seriously injured.
Wu Zhongli was not a big deal as Zhu Yan did not even take him seriously. However, Zhu Yan knew that Wu Yanshan's strength was extraordinary. Wu Yanshan had fallen to the point where he could not even show his face and had almost died in the Illusory Fog Swamp. Zhu Yan did not dare to underestimate him. Not to mention that so many days had passed and they had no way of knowing where Xiang Qingcheng was, whether he was alive or dead. Even if they knew, Zhu Yan admitted that she did not have the ability to get through the Howling Moon Wolf Clan's heavy blockade to rescue him.
While Zhu Yan's thoughts were in turmoil, the Fire Dipper Sword had already slashed towards Lu Xiaotian's head. Lü Yiming had already retreated. He did not want to be involved in this battle.
Seeing that Lu Xiaotian did not make any moves to dodge, Yun Chongyi became anxious. The moment the Fire Dipper Sword appeared, Yun Chongyi's eyelids twitched. In terms of cultivation level, Wu Zhongli was slightly weaker than him. However, Wu Zhongli was one of the immortals. The purity of his Celestial Core Energy was not something that ordinary True Immortals could compare to. Even though Yun Chongyi's cultivation level was higher, the density of his Celestial Core Energy was much weaker than Wu Zhongli's. When he attacked, his combat strength was more obvious. How could he block such a sharp Fire Dipper Sword?
Lu Xiaotian held the Demon Subduing Pagoda in his hand. A golden light shot out from the pagoda and the Buddha seal formed a faint golden lotus. The seal on it flashed. It was the Golden Lotus Seal of the Ancestral Buddha Ancient Seal.
