"Nice one, old man!"
Behind Shen Lang, Shark’s Kiss secretly gave Shangguan Feiyue a thumbs-up.
He had noticed early on that Shangguan Feiyue had secretly notified Liu Changhai and the other two from the Imperial Dragon Sect, who were just standing around, telling them to bring over the group of people who hadn’t dared to approach.
Only their arrival could ease the tension in the air.
And only Shen Lang’s parents could truly persuade him to let go of Nalan Ziyun and allow the three of them and Master Kongjing to join forces and save her.
These were old masters who had lived for thousands of years. When it ca to understanding human nature and worldly affairs, ordinary people were no match for them.
Sure enough, the mont Shen Lang’s parents appeared, his aura changed drastically. His previously aggressive deanor vanished, leaving only sorrow in its wake.
"Dad, Mom, don’t co over. Just wait for there for a mont," Shen Lang said, fighting back his grief.
He had to take Nalan Ziyun out of Celestial Phoenix City, find a secluded place to enter the Heaven-Sealing Cauldron, and then take her into the Gate of Creation to search for the Life Spiritual Liquid.
Just then, the voice of Zuo Wentian, who had been silent since the beginning, suddenly echoed in Shen Lang’s mind.
’Master, do not worry. Nalan Ziyun’s soul has not dispersed, and a thread of life remains within her body. I can revive her.’
At that mont, Shen Lang, who had been overwheld with anguish, saw his eyes fly open, a brilliant light flashing within them!
’You have a way to save her?’ Shen Lang roared in his mind.
Zuo Wentian replied, ’Master, you have no Life Energy left because you gave it all to Li Su in the Sorrow Swamp... But I still have so. The Life Energy within is enough to revive her.’
’You’re in a soul state and incredibly weak. If you give her your Life Energy, you yourself...’ Shen Lang hesitated slightly.
’It’s alright. The worst that can happen is I’ll fall into a deep slumber. Even without Life Energy, I’ll recover after a few thousand years of sleep at most. Besides, there will be more Life Spiritual Liquid later. When that ti cos, Master can just give a little, and I’ll recover.’ Zuo Wentian sighed and said, ’This disciple is useless. I have been in a deep sleep all this ti. It was only when Master risked your life to use the Demon Blade Technique that the world-shaking Sword Intent woke ... I’m sorry...’
’This isn’t your fault... How do you plan to save her now? In front of so many powerhouses, will they notice?’
’Though my soul is weak, hiding my presence from juniors like these is more than manageable. Leave it to .’
The mont Zuo Wentian’s voice faded, a rich surge of Life Energy, enveloped by powerful Soul Power, was transferred from Shen Lang’s body into Nalan Ziyun’s.
Under the protection of Zuo Wentian’s imnse Soul Power, even a powerhouse of Master Kongjing’s level failed to detect anything unusual.
Just like that, Zuo Wentian transferred all the Life Energy from his body into Nalan Ziyun.
’Disciple... this disciple is going to sleep now, Master... I’m sorry... for leaving you to face this crisis alone...’
Zuo Wentian’s thoughts ca into Shen Lang’s mind intermittently, then fell silent.
"Eh?!"
Master Kongjing, who had been silent all this ti, suddenly let out a soft cry of surprise.
"Such a strange occurrence! If this old monk’s ears did not deceive , her heart seed to have just beaten once!" A divine light shot from Master Kongjing’s eyes as he strode forward to stand before Shen Lang.
"Buddha be blessed! This young friend is brimming with vitality, and her ridians are continuously recovering. She can be saved!"
"What!" Nangong Yan and the other two were stunned.
They had clearly determined earlier that all of Nalan Ziyun’s ridians were severed and her heart had stopped beating, with only a wisp of life force lingering near her heart.
How could she suddenly...?
There were four dignified Emperor Martial Realm powerhouses here. How could they have been mistaken?
Without stopping to think, Nangong Yan and the other two rushed over.
The four powerhouses simultaneously sent their powerful Divine Thought into Nalan Ziyun’s body to investigate carefully.
Afterward, all four wore looks of absolute shock. "Where did this strange energy co from? It’s so heaven-defying!"
"Could it be that the Ten Thousand Years Life Extension Imperial Pill from Dingdang has taken effect...?"
"Aside from that, I can’t think of any other possibility..."
Seeing this, Xue Dangdang, with tears still on her face, hurried to Shen Lang’s side, took his arm, and said, "Brother Lang, let’s put Sister Ziyun down. Master Kongjing wouldn’t lie. He’ll do everything he can to save Sister Ziyun."
"Okay." Knowing that Nalan Ziyun could be saved, Shen Lang no longer rejected their help, especially since it was Xue Dangdang who had spoken.
He gave a slight nod and gently placed Nalan Ziyun on the ground.
Kong Jing and the other three Emperor Martial Realm powerhouses imdiately took action, sitting cross-legged and exerting all their strength to help Nalan Ziyun recover.
The shimring golden Buddhist Bead appeared once more, hovering above Nalan Ziyun’s head. Countless rays of Buddha Light condensed into threads of light and entered her body.
They were incapable of bringing soone back from the dead. But since Nalan Ziyun had inexplicably regained her life force, she was now rely a severely injured person. With four Emperor Martial Realm powerhouses working together, the difficulty of saving her was reduced imnsely.
Moreover, among them was Master Kong Jing, who had reached the terrifying Seventh Heaven of Emperor Martial Realm, and he possessed the Bodhi Prayer Beads, an artifact passed down in the Ruyi Buddha Sect for ten thousand years!
If they still couldn’t save Nalan Ziyun under these circumstances, then Shangguan Feiyue and the other two might as well retire from the martial world.
Mysterious runes and streams of profound, pure Spiritual Power, glowing with a divine radiance, gathered from the hands of the four experts and entered Nalan Ziyun’s body one by one.
Nalan Ziyun’s originally pale, bloodless face began to regain its color!
"Brother Lang, look! Sister Ziyun is breathing! Her heart is beating!" Xue Dangdang cheered ecstatically.
The crowd watching from a distance, who had been holding their breath, burst into cheers.
In the crowd, Nalan Ziyun’s parents wept with joy. Supported by several servants, they staggered over.
Shen Lang and Xue Dangdang quickly went to support them.
At this ti, the eight Xuanwu Realm Powerhouses from the Imperial Dragon Sect were still kneeling on the ground, not daring to rise. Their faces were pale, and they were constantly wiping away sweat.
However, seeing that Nalan Ziyun could be saved, they all breathed a sigh of relief, and their anxious hearts finally settled.
Six of them ntally cursed the eighteen generations of ancestors of the two who had been slapped and kicked away earlier.
’Those two good-for-nothings, what kind of ss did they get us into!’
’Didn’t our group rush over because we saw the Token Xue Dangdang released and knew sothing major had happened?’
’Weren’t we trying to help this Little Witch, Xue Dangdang?’
’And what happens? Those two idiots go and offend this kid directly!’
’Isn’t this kid the one Xue Dangdang wants to protect?’
’And he even pointed at the Elder Ancestors and cursed them, and they didn’t even talk back!’
’Now they’re desperately trying to save this young woman!’
’What kind of person is he?’
As the n cursed internally, they desperately tried to figure things out.
Among the crowd watching from afar, the three Xuanwu Realm powerhouses from the Imperial Dragon Sect who had been on the Martial Arts Arena, Liu Changhai and his companions, wore long faces as they sent a voice transmission to the kneeling n.
They explained the cause and effect of the situation to the eight n...
The eight n kneeling on the ground instantly turned deathly pale!
’He casually taught one move to Ling Chen, who’s at the Xuanwu Realm Fifth Heaven, and it was enough to severely injure Yuwen Huaji, who’s at the Peak of Xuanwu Realm?’
’A guy at Spirit Martial Realm Second Heaven killed Yuwen Huaji with a final slash?’
’And he used the Secret Skill of the Dark Gold Level Influence, the Celestial Purity Sect—the Emperor Level Technique, ’Demon Blade Technique’?’
’Holy hell, this is enough to scare a man to death!’
The eight powerhouses, whose cultivation was no weaker than Yuwen Huaji’s, stood frozen like stone statues, completely motionless.
The Celestial Purity Sect... that was a legendary Major Sect.
It was currently a Dark Gold Level Influence, but it was said to have been a Legendary Power ten thousand years ago.
Later, an event that shook the entire continent occurred, involving dozens of Legendary Powers and various powerful Sects. Only then was it knocked down to beco a Dark Gold Level Influence.
For so unknown reason, the founding ancestor offended dozens of Legendary Powers and was hunted by countless experts, eventually disappearing without a trace.
From then on, the status of this powerful Sect plumted.
If the War God Hall hadn’t intervened, this Sect probably wouldn’t even exist on the Star Continent anymore.
Even so, the current Celestial Purity Sect was still a behemoth that others could only look up to.
Furthermore, it was said that although the Celestial Purity Sect’s talents had dwindled, each of its mbers possessed world-shaking Secret Skills. They were all known to be domineering, arrogant, and extrely protective of their own.
If anyone offended one of their people, they would swarm in, and with one slash per person, they could annihilate an entire Sect!
’Since this kid knows the Celestial Purity Sect’s ultimate Sword Skill, the "Demon Blade Technique," he must have an undeniable connection to them!’
’What if he really is from the Celestial Purity Sect? If they co looking for the Imperial Dragon Sect, who could possibly stop them?’
’This joke has gone too far. That bastard Yuwen Huaji got himself killed and dragged us down with him. Damn it, I knew that scoundrel would co to a bad end...’
The Xuanwu Realm Powerhouses cried out endlessly in their hearts.
The boy who had been like an ant in their eyes now stood tall and mighty, like a giant!
A person of his status was soone that not just them, but the entire Imperial Dragon Sect, could not afford to offend!
They finally understood why their Elder Ancestor had worn that expression.
The fact that the Elder Ancestor hadn’t just slapped them to death was already a show of utmost rcy.
The ones sent out on this mission were the eight of them, Yuwen Huaji, and the two martial uncles who had just returned.
Now that Yuwen Huaji had caused such a massive disaster, they couldn’t escape the bla either!
Just as these Xuanwu Realm Powerhouses from the Imperial Dragon Sect were racking their brains, trying to figure out what to say and do next...
"Mmm..."
A soft moan from Nalan Ziyun sounded as beautiful as celestial music.
Everyone present felt that it was the most beautiful sound they had ever heard in their lives.
The oppressive atmosphere, which had been stretched to its limit, dissolved like ice. Shen Lang took two steps forward, panting heavily as he said, "Is she okay? Is she alive? Is she alright?!"
At that exact mont, Nalan Ziyun’s eyes opened. Her beautiful gaze fixed on Shen Lang, whose face was almost pressed against hers.
The next mont, Nalan Ziyun’s delicate brows shot up, and she raised her hand to slap Shen Lang across the face!
The people who were just about to cheer all froze, seemingly unable to comprehend this sudden turn of events.
"You bastard! You idiot!" Nalan Ziyun cursed loudly.
"Do you think you’re so great? Do you think you can control everything? Do you think you’re such a big man?"
"I was willing to die so that you could live a good life!"
"So why did you want to die too? If you died, it would all be over for you... but what about Uncle Tian and Auntie Die? What about Moran? What about Dingdang! Do you really think you’re so damn great? Are you even a man? Do you not know what the word ’responsibility’ ans?"
"You were ’dead.’ How could you know what happened afterward?" Shen Lang asked, his face darkening as he rubbed his cheek.
Tears stread from Nalan Ziyun’s eyes. "In the mont before I lost consciousness, I saw the intent to ’die’ in your eyes..."
As she spoke, she threw herself forward and hugged Shen Lang tightly, bursting into loud sobs.
Her cries were uninhibited, unrestrained, and heart-wrenching...
Many of the people of Celestial Phoenix City in the distance began wiping their eyes, and the great powerhouses sighed at the sight.
Tears fell from Xue Dangdang’s face once more. She clamped her hands over her mouth, trying to keep herself from crying out loud...
Just then, the Buddhist Bead that had been floating above Nalan Ziyun’s head suddenly spun around. WHOOSH! It shot down through Shen Lang’s Baihui Acupoint and entered his body!
Master Kongjing, who had been holding a serene, Buddha-like smile, suddenly looked horrified!
Seeing Master Kongjing’s expression, Shark’s Kiss, Shangguan Feiyue, and Nangong Yan were also shocked. "The Buddhist Bead... it entered Shen Lang’s body on its own!"
