Chapter 523: Chapter 272 Eastern Sect Master_2
Jade Illusion Zen Ren, upon spotting these three Nascent Soul True Monarchs who did not intend to leave, suddenly had an idea. Bowing in respect, she said, “Sect Hierarch, I still have some things left to arrange within the Liu Yun Sect. Could you wait for a moment, please?”
“Alright.” The lady in red agreed.
The expressions of the three Nascent Soul True Monarchs at the side flickered. They had originally planned to launch an attack on the Liu Yun Sect once the lady in red had left. Now it seemed that this was no longer possible.
They glanced down, where Lord Xuan Ming was still screaming in agony. This True Monarch of the Xuan Yin Sect, a Nascent Soul Great Perfection, probably didn’t want to leave. It was more likely that he could not, as all the Yin Qi within his body had been ignited by the flames, rendering him unable to move.
As time went on, his screams grew louder and louder.
Upon hearing the intense screams, the lady in red, looking at Lord Xuan Ming who was still struggling and screaming within the flames, furrowed her brows. “Disruptive.”
After saying that, a few balls of flame materialised beside her and shot violently towards Lord Xuan Ming. Immediately, the flames consuming Nascent Soul Great Perfection became even more vigorous, incinerating him into ash within an instant.
The faces of the three Nascent Soul True Monarchs around her turned ash-white. Their hearts turned cold – they had never expected the lady in red to outright kill Lord Xuan Ming.
A powerful cultivator at the Nascent Soul Great Perfection stage, an elder of the Xuan Yin Sect, an evil cultivator feared by many was vanquished so easily.
The image of the once self-satisfied Lord Xuan Ming surfaced in their minds. Now, he had met an unbearably agonizing death, without even leaving ashes behind.
Indeed, the Cultivation World was a dreaded and ruthless place, where only power held sway.
The three Nascent Soul True Monarchs exchanged glances. Simultaneously, they bowed and said, “Eastern Daoist Friend, it is our good fortune to have met you today. However, our Sects demand our presence elsewhere, so we bid you farewell.”
The presence of the Eastern Sect Master made them fear attacking Liu Yun Sect. After all, she had accepted Jade Illusion Zen Ren as her disciple.
Without Lord Xuan Ming, a Nascent Soul Great Perfection, and the man in the black cloak, they would need some time to break through the Protective Sect Array. True Monarch Lin Xiao could return at any moment.
The lady in red leaned against the sedan, flicked her hand dismissively like shooing away some flies.
The three Nascent Soul True Monarchs didn’t dare to stay any longer. Just as they were about to resume their departure, the voice of the lady in red echoed, “Hold on.”
Upon hearing her words, the three True Monarchs of the Cultivation World, the elders of their respective Sects, froze. None dared to move a single step, they turned around, somewhat uneasily, and asked, “What else can we assist you with, Daoist Friend?”
At this moment, they tasted the bitter feeling of living or dying at the mercy of others. It’s been years since they, as Nascent Soul True Monarchs, had endured such an ordeal.
“The Xuan Yin Sect is within the territory of my Sun Moon Divine Sect, and none may touch it without permission.” The lady in red said indifferently.
“Rest assured, Daoist Friend, we wouldn’t dare to overstep.” The three Nascent Soul True Monarchs hurriedly responded.
They had indeed intended on visiting the Xuan Yin Sect. With Lord Xuan Ming gone, the remaining Golden Cores would pose no challenge. If they couldn’t split the resources of Liu Yun Sect, they would at least have to compensate from elsewhere.
But now that the lady in red had claimed the Xuan Yin Sect, they had no choice but to back down.
They had never heard of the Sun Moon Divine Sect before. Could it be a reclusive sect that is now re-emerging in the Cultivation World with the intention of spreading its teachings?
They decided to study their Sect’s records carefully after they returned, to see if they could find traces that resemble the Sun Moon Divine Sect.
However, if the lady in red only claimed the Xuan Yin Sect as her domain, that implies they should be able to divide the resources of the Canghua Sect.
“The resources of the Canghua Sect, however, need compensation for the harm done to my disciples of the Sun Moon Divine Sect.” The lady in red, as if reading their thoughts, said without expression.
The three Nascent Soul True Monarchs wore forced smiles, they had no choice but to agree, “Rest assured, Daoist Friend, we wouldn’t dare touch the resources of the Canghua Sect.”
It seemed like their trip had been all in vain. However, they were relieved to have kept their lives in the presence of the lady in red. They were extremely grateful that they did not provoke Jade Illusion Zen Ren. Otherwise, they might have suffered the same fate as Lord Xuan Ming – death.
The lady in red said nothing more and simply waved her hand.
The three Nascent Soul True Monarchs dared not linger any longer. Transforming into rays of light, they vanished into the distant sky.
Upon seeing the departure of all the Nascent Soul True Monarchs outside, a loud cheer came from within the Liu Yun Sect. The faces of all the Real Golden Core Persons lit up with excitement.
At this moment, Jade Illusion Zen Ren received a message and hurriedly bowed and said, “Sect Hierarch, you have inadvertently resolved the crisis of the Liu Yun Sect. The Nascent Soul True Monarch of our sect wishes to express his gratitude, along with all the disciples.”
“If they wish to thank me, let them offer up all the resources of their sect. Otherwise, they can just keep their distance. I don’t have time to listen to their gratitude. Without even managing to keep their cultivation levels, what True Monarchs are they?” The lady in red said coldly, emanating an extremely powerful aura.
Jade Illusion Zen Ren paled at her words. A Nascent Soul Great Perfection True Monarch was like a dog at the feet of the Sect Hierarch. Even more so for her, being only at the Golden Core stage.
Suddenly, the lady in red appeared beside Jade Illusion Zen Ren, chuckling slightly as she patted her face, “I was wrong to scare you. Go ahead and collect your things.”
