1488 Chapter 1488 Threat
The tall and sturdy old man's face was twisted, and his two bell-like eyes were about to pop out of their sockets, "If the Void Zen Sect coveted our Dan Yang Sect's alchemy skills, they would have made their move three thousand years ago. Why would they wait until now? Zuo Yi, the Dan Yang Sect belongs to everyone, not to you alone! "
Just like the tall and skinny old man, this tall and sturdy old man also called out the Sect Leader's name, gritting his teeth as he waited for Zuo Yi, "At a time like this, you are still clinging to that 'Di Ling Immortal Pill'. If the Dan Yang Sect is really destroyed by the Void Zen Sect today, you will be the culprit!"
"Elder Fu is right. Sect Leader, hand over the 'Di Ling Immortal Pill'!"
"Although immortal pills are rare, they can't be refined. They're no different from trash. Keeping them will bring disaster, but giving them away will give our sect a chance of survival!"
"Zuo Yi, this old man knows what you're thinking. Do you think that after giving away the 'Di Ling Immortal Pill', the Void Zen Sect will kill you to prevent the news from leaking out? There is indeed such a possibility, but if you don't even try, how do you know that the people from the Void Zen Sect won't keep their promise? "
"..."
The other dozens of elders spoke one after another. Some had ugly expressions, some shouted angrily like fiends, and some tried to persuade him with reason and emotion.
Zuo Yi's expression was wooden, and there was an indescribable exhaustion between his brows.
This kind of scene had played out many times in the past few days.
Many of the elders said that they wanted to preserve the three thousand years of inheritance and not let the Dan Yang Sect be destroyed now. To put it bluntly, it was nothing more than "fear of death". However, this was human nature. After all, it was already a matter of life and death. It was impossible to ask everyone in the Dan Yang Sect to be like him, the Sect Leader.
When the noise had weakened slightly, Zuo Yi took a light breath and said in a deep voice, "Elders, there is no need to say anymore. There is no such thing as an 'Emperor Spiritual Immortal Pill'. Even if you kill me, I will still say the same thing! If you don't believe me, you can search any area of the sect. "
The lanky old man and the others were furious. The palace fell into a dead silence, and an extremely oppressive atmosphere lingered in the void. During this period of time, they had already searched the entire sect over and over again. If they had found anything, they would not have forced Zuo Yi again and again.
In an instant, the tall and skinny old man's face darkened as he angrily said, "Zuo Yi, do you really think that we don't dare to kill you?"
"Dying in your hands is better than dying in the hands of those people from the Void Zen Sect." Zuo Yi looked at the crowd and sighed softly. A relieved smile appeared on his face.
"You …"
The tall, skinny old man and the others were once again exasperated.
In the entire Dan Yang Sect, if there was anyone who knew the whereabouts of the "Di Ling Immortal Pill", it would be the Sect Leader, Zuo Yi. If Zuo Yi were to die, then there would be no hope at all. If they could not obtain the immortal pill, the Void Zen Sect would definitely not let them off.
However, Zuo Yi refused to budge. These days, no matter how they persuaded or threatened him, Zuo Yi refused to budge. This made them angry and frustrated.
"Eh, who's that?"
After a while, a low voice suddenly broke the silence of the space. Finally, someone noticed Tang Huan, who was lying on the ground behind Zuo Yi.
Hearing this, many people immediately looked over.
"I'll go take a look!"
A Black Costume Old Man snorted coldly and shot forward.
Seeing this, Zuo Yi subconsciously stretched out his arm, wanting to say something to stop them, but when the words reached his mouth, he swallowed them back. The senior on the ground was a half-dead person, if they wanted to take a look, they could take a look. If he showed too much concern, it might arouse suspicion and have the opposite effect.
"No Dao Nascent Soul?"
After probing for a bit, the Black Costume Old Man was stunned for a moment, but then he reacted, "Looks like his Dao Nascent Soul has been broken. Tsk tsk, this injury is really heavy! "However, it's strange that he didn't die immediately after his Dao Nascent Soul was broken …"
As he said this in surprise, the Black Costume Old Man seemed to have thought of something and frowned in surprise, "This person looks very unfamiliar. There are thousands of people in the Sect of Dan Yang, and even if this old man can't call out all of their names, I have more or less seen them a few times. However, this old man has never seen him before!"
"Sect Leader, who is he?" His voice paused slightly, and Black Costume Old Man looked at Zuo Yi in the blink of an eye.
"Uh, this senior is …"
Zuo Yi was a little hesitant. He couldn't possibly say that this person had appeared on the altar out of thin air. If he said that, not many people would believe him.
"Senior?"
Catching Zuo Yi's hesitation, a sinister smile suddenly surfaced on the Black Costume Old Man's face, "Sect Leader, this senior must have a deep relationship with you? Otherwise, you wouldn't have kept the heavily injured him in the Sect of Dan Yang! If that's the case, then things will be easy. Hand over the 'Di Ling Immortal Pill', or else, this old man will kill him right now! "With that, Black Costume Old Man's right palm was already pressed on top of Tang Huan's head, black Qi surging between his palms.
When the surrounding elders heard this, their eyes lit up. If this injured person really had a deep relationship with Zuo Yi, they might really be able to threaten him to hand over the immortal pill.
"Elder Hu, don't go too far!" Zuo Yi's anger could be seen between his brows.
"Is this old man going too far, or are you going too far?"
Black Costume Old Man sneered, "For the sake of a 'Di Ling Immortal Pill' that you can't use, you dragged thousands of people from the sect to die with you. Don't you feel guilty at all? "Zuo Yi, this old man can't be bothered to waste words with you. Either hand over the Di Ling Immortal Pill, or this old man will kill this person!"
Zuo Yi's eyes flashed with guilt. If there really was a way to save the sect, even if he had to give up his life, he wouldn't hesitate in the slightest. However, the problem now was that there was no way for the Pill Yang Sect to continue existing. The Void Zen Sect had used some unknown method to seal off the Pill Yang Sect's encampment, and they couldn't even send out any information. If the news of the "Di Ling Immortal Pill" were to spread, it would definitely attract those powerful sects.
As a result, the threat of the Void Zen Sect was not worth mentioning, and the news had already been leaked, so there was no need for the powerful sects to kill them. That way, the Pill Yang Sect would have a chance of survival. Unfortunately, the information could not be sent out, so this method could not be carried out at all.
"Elder Hu, I have never met this senior before. More than ten days ago, I saw this senior heavily injured at the foot of the mountain, and I couldn't bear to see him die, so I brought him back. It's useless even if you use this senior to threaten me!" Zuo Yi sighed inwardly, and said in a deep voice, "Moreover, without the 'Di Ling Immortal Pill', even if you kill this senior, I won't be able to take out half a pill!"
"You …"
The Black Costume Old Man's expression was unsettled, and the other elders' expressions were also gloomy.
Everyone believed what Zuo Yi had just said. After all, Zuo Yi had stayed in the Dan Yang Sect for so many years. If he really had a deep relationship with someone, it was impossible for them to not know about it. However, believing it was one thing, and accepting it was another.
"Very good, since he has nothing to do with you, then this old man will help him escape!"
