Chapter 924: Chapter 920: Wrathful Beheading of Qing Lian (Part 2)
At this mont, Qing Lian appeared very candid, also because her cultivation level was inherently low within the Pan Gu secret realm, and Wu Ding could easily crush her to death.
Ye Fan asked with so tension in his heart, “Where is Zhao Jun…?”
“After seeing you, Zhao Jun was also injured and is currently in a special place recuperating. You should follow , and before Sister Fa Ying arrives, you take her away,” Qing Lian said, her tone sowhat wistful, “In the future, don’t return to the Pan Gu secret realm. I have fulfilled my accountability to your master.”
“Are you really that kind?” Wu Ding scrutinized Qing Lian with deep distrust.
“I know Sister Wu Ding has so misunderstanding, but Zhao Jun is now injured by Ye Fan’s Nine Yang Divine Skill, with only mories of her forr lover left in her mind. As her master, can I just watch her continue to suffer?” Qing Lian appeared very fond of her disciple, her face sowhat sorrowful as she spoke.
Wu Ding said, “Fine, then I will accompany junior brother to see if you will hand her over!”
“Senior Sister… perhaps should not disrupt the reunion of this pair of lovers, better to let Ye Fan go by himself,” Qing Lian said with a composed deanor.
Wu Ding sneered, “Who knows what you might do to my junior brother, I have to go see for myself. As long as you hand her over, we’ll let bygones be bygones. If you need anything in the future, as your senior sister, I can still help you, but if you remain stubborn, then there is no more courtesy to speak of!”
Qing Lian hesitated for a mont, then nodded, “Since senior sister insists, then follow and Ye Fan for a trip, but we should not disturb them when they et.”
“That also depends if you have any sinister plots,” Wu Ding remained deeply guarded against Qing Lian, clearly she had suffered from Qing Lian before.
…
As Qing Lian led the way, allowing Wu Ding to support Ye Fan towards the millennia-old ice cellar, in the main hall there was also a battle underway where the balance of power was originally very skewed.
The old Daoist, who appeared to be only at the Golden Core Stage, surprisingly withstood Sect Master Ling of the Earth Origin Sect’s killer move, remaining unscathed under her fierce assault, and could even counterattack. The elder’s power was clearly above the late-stage of the Great Ascension, possibly reaching the Transcendance Tribulation Stage.
Such a skilled expert hiding in the hall for two days, yet no one knew.
The elder’s purpose at Emperor Mountain was likely to explore the truth of the white jade stone and find the true master of Tai Ning, the destined one to save the Pan Gu secret realm.
Ling’s killing intent was steep, determined to put the elder to death. His offensive waves surged higher and higher, and the battle between two Transcendance Tribulation Stage experts had a vast impact, causing those with lower cultivation to hastily flee down the mountain, still resulting in so casualties.
Unclear if the elder was friend or foe, the people of the six major sects could only consider the elder an ally, as aside from the elder, seemingly no one else could engage Ling in one-on-one combat.
The Earth Origin Sect was notorious for tyrannical sect annihilations, actions that could even be described as calamities.
No one would regard the Earth Origin Sect as an ally, and the power of a single sect like the Earth Origin Sect was almost enough to contend with all cultivators in the Pan Gu secret realm.
…
Within the second tier of the ice cellar in the back mountain, several hundred feet above the bottom of the cellar, Yuan Mo and Cheng He stood against the rock wall, their heads wrapped in green lotus leaves, hopping on one foot. Despite wearing many clothes, they still felt frozen like popsicles.
“Senior Brother Yuan, it’s really cold here, do you think Master Qinglian isn’t playing a trick on us?” The fat-faced Cheng He had frost on his face but had to circulate the trace amount of spiritual energy at his Qi Cultivation Stage to maintain his body temperature.
Yuan Mo said coldly, “She wouldn’t dare, that woman is nominally under our Emperor Mountain, with my grandfather backing her. She has to be respectful towards . Moreover… I have heard about Junior Sister Yun Zhao from Fa Ying herself, to sever her emotions and desires, only destroying her would suffice. We can say we’re getting this for free.”
Fatty Cheng He bead, “Didn’t expect mistakes to turn into good luck, Ye Fan injured us, drained our cultivation, and now his girl is ours. I wish I could see his face when he coughs up blood and dies!”
“But we should still be careful. Even though that kid is severely injured, he’s at the Golden Core Stage. In a fury, he might be a threat to us, but thankfully I know the conditions inside this ice cellar. The millennia-old ice below acts as a barrier, even if he’s past the Nascent Soul Stage, he can’t break through!” Yuan Mo showed so anticipation, “Once we get down there, we only have a quarter of an hour, so we must hurry. Otherwise, we might end up playing for our lives!”
“I know, I know,” Cheng He nodded, “But… with just the two of us going down for only a quarter of an hour, I’m afraid… we won’t finish, and that would be unpleasant. Senior Brother Yuan, I have an idea, I’ll go first, finish once, then co back, and you go. That way, we each have a quarter of an hour?”
Killing intent appeared in Yuan Mo’s eyes, and he had no objection to the idea itself but could not accept Cheng He going first and leaving the rest to him.
What right do you have to take the first share and leave the scraps?
“Alright, junior brother, go ahead. It doesn’t matter whether that woman Qing Lian cos or not,” Yuan Mo said with a smile.
“Good, good.”
Cheng He was excited, thinking Senior Brother Yuan was really easy to fool, so he would just go ahead without hesitance.
Who knew Cheng He had barely taken two steps down when he suddenly felt imnse pressure from behind. Yuan Mo had struck his back with his palm, causing Cheng He to stumble and fall to the ground.
“Senior brother… you?” Cheng He turned his head, looking at Yuan Mo with a malicious smile on his face.
Yuan Mo grinned wickedly, “Junior brother, oh, junior brother, why would you ever think that way? The two of us going down separately ans each only gets one Fire Spirit Pill, allowing just a quarter of an hour each. But if I have your Fire Spirit Pill, I could stay down there for an hour. Don’t you agree, junior brother?”
Cheng He regretted it deeply, regretting being fooled by Senior Brother Yuan and falling into such a trap.
But then he thought, it was his own greed that led to this situation.
“However, if junior brother wants to go down with , that’s fine. I know a shortcut for a quick slide down, saving a lot of ti. The spiritual energy of this magical item can support a while longer, if you can hold on below until I’m done, you have a shot.” Yuan Mo laughed heartily.
Only then did Cheng He realize that Yuan Mo, being the grandson of Elder Yuan, was more familiar with Emperor Mountain’s layout than Qing Lian.
Qing Lian said it took a quarter of an hour to get down, but that was by walking. Sliding down would be much faster.
Yuan Mo continued, “Actually, it wouldn’t matter if you went down; you don’t know how to operate the final chanism of the ice cellar. But I do. That conniving Qing Lian might plan to kill us afterwards, so we’ll go now, finish before she arrives, and let her watch her disciple’s downfall!”
