Chapter 95: Gathering of the Strong

The old general, Gu Chang, helped Xie Lingtian up and handed the wooden box in his hand to the leader of the Silver Jade Sect.
At this moment, Yan Qing'er came running over; various forces also flocked to them, standing on opposite sides with mutual vigilance.
The largest group is led by the Mo family, and most of the guards are surrounding everyone outside the formation, ready for battle.
The second group consists of the five black-clad individuals, Qianjing and the purple-clothed old man, waiting for the right moment to strike. Also present are the masters of Xiu Ling Peak and Mu Qianying, along with several representatives from the Zhenzhou Du family who are there to watch.
Of course, there may still be people hiding in the shadows who have not appeared.
However, almost everyone's goal is for the fifth scroll and the divine brush.
Mo Yuan recovered from the sorrow of losing his beloved daughter and was even more saddened and angry when he saw this scene, unable to control his rage.
"It seems everyone is here. Which faction do you belong to? State your name!" Mo Yuan's face was gloomy, his gaze coldly scanning the surroundings with killing intent.
"You silly old hat, who would reveal their identity at a time like this? Hmph!" Upon hearing this, Qian Jing snorted and quickly retorted.
This statement almost made Mo Yuan vomit blood, but he couldn't come up with a rebuttal.
Besides, the purple-clothed old man beside that yellow-haired kid had a strength that was unfathomable; at least at the high level or even the peak of the Heaven Realm.
Moreover, the Eagle Elder from the Soul Hunting Sect, who was supposed to be present, has yet to show up, and there are only a few helpers from the Soul Hunting Sect!
It is unwise to take action in such an unclear situation.
他这样的身份不便直接与一个半大的小孩动手；但倒也不至于所有莫家人都默不作声。
“哪来的小东西，信不信我把你的舌头给割下来喂狗。”莫元的大儿子莫灵站了出来，阴狠地回击道。
"You...!" Qianjing wanted to retort, but was stopped by the old man beside him.
"Prince, be low-key, this old man doesn't want to be mobbed~~" The old man glanced at Qianjing lightly and said softly, but still looked calm and fearless.
Upon hearing this, Qian Jing scoffed and remained silent, but cursed inwardly.
After Qian Jing's interruption, it seemed that no one else would reveal their identity.
Seeing that no one responded to him, Mo Yuan's face became even more grim. He got straight to the point and stared at the black-clad woman next to Xie Lingtian who had the strongest power, saying, "Madam, you stole my Mo family's Fifth Scroll and the Divine Goodness Pen, and caused my beloved daughter to die. Today, you will not leave this place!"
The head of Silver Xiaoyao Sect glanced disinterestedly at Mo Yuan and ignored him, instead turning to Yan Qing'er and saying: "It will take some time for Cao Dan to break through this formation. Let's try to hold them back as much as possible. You take care of this guy."
Yan Qing'er nodded slightly, then helped the semi-unconscious Xie Lingtian sit on the ground and urgently treated his injuries.
"Hmph!"
At this moment, the master of Xiu Ling Peak, not far away, snorted coldly, and immediately a chill rushed towards the leader of Silver Yao Palace; wherever the chill passed, a layer of frost condensed on the ground.
The head of the Yin Yao Sect frowned slightly when she saw this. She was quite surprised that the first one to start a fight was the Showy Spirit Peak Master of the Town God Sect.
However, the head of the Yin Yao Sect waved her hand lightly, and a strong internal force emanated from her hand, instantly dispelling the coldness and the layer of frost.
"Yuxing Valley! I have no interest in this fifth scroll, but how do you explain your actions of targeting my disciple and infiltrating my Town God Sect?" Xiu Ling Peak Master's eyes were sharp and cold as he sternly questioned.
Grandmaster Yinyao remained unmoved and calmly said, "I saved your beloved disciple and placed a restriction on her, there is nothing inappropriate about it."
"The legendary Jade Star Curse is truly mysterious, even I am unable to unravel it; if it was just a 'restriction,' why bother with the Jade Star Curse? Saving someone? It's simply a joke!"
"Believe it or not, it's up to you; and your disciple has unlawfully revealed the secrets of our valley to outsiders, according to our rules, punishment is inevitable."
"Punishment? Hahaha..." the master of Xiu Ling Peak laughed in anger, "Do you really think that the master of Xiu Ling Peak is easy to bully? I want to see how powerful your Yu Xing Valley really is!"
Xiu Lingfeng master is extremely dissatisfied with the other party's attitude, and they have already bullied her. If she does not take action, how can she establish her authority as a master in front of everyone!
Right now, the leader of Xiu Ling Peak exudes a terrifying energy as she flips her palms and creates a blue energy ripple in the center of her hands.
As the blue light flickers, the power of coldness intensifies, and a feeling of freezing all things suddenly emerges, causing the temperature inside the formation to drop by tens of degrees!
莫元等人脸色瞬间一变，一个个连忙撤退数丈；修为较低的护卫更是承受不了这股寒意，被冻得瑟瑟发抖，脚底生霜。
Only saw Xiu Ling Fengzhu clapping his palms, a blue light shining brightly, and the blue frost quickly spread into the formation.
"Boom boom boom...!"
A series of explosive sounds came one after another, the ground broke into pieces, and the fragments instantly turned into ice stones.
"Ka-cha! Ka-cha..."
Under the control of Xiu Lingfeng, hundreds of ice stones exploded and flew in all directions, combining into an arc-shaped ice wall that surrounded the area where Sect Leader Yin Yao, Elder Gu Chang, Xie Lintian, and Yan QingEr were.
Meanwhile, the ice debris transformed into arrows and spears, shooting rapidly towards the four of them!
Silver Yao Sect Leader finally showed a serious expression; their retreat was blocked and frozen, even if she could safely dodge Show Ling Peak Master's attack, Smoke Green and the current Xie Lingtian would not be able to escape from danger.
"Master, they are not bad people, I beg you, please stop!" Mu Qianying pleaded with the main peak of Xiuling when she saw the situation.
"Shut up! You have been bewitched by them. After I deal with them, you will obediently return to the mountain to cultivate for another five years!" The main peak of Xiuling glared at Mu Qianying and shouted coldly.
It's better late than never. The Silver Yao Sect Leader does not dare to be sluggish on this side.
With a flip of her hand, a black mist sprays out from her palm and covers the four of them. At the same time, the black mist transforms into several huge black panthers, roaring and pouncing toward the Showy Spirit Peak Master with lightning speed, catching them off guard!
Four black panthers have the same amber-colored demonic pupils, shimmering with strange fluctuations. Whenever their eyes flash, the speed and strength of the four black panthers increase.
Wherever they went, the hard and sharp ice rocks were instantly shattered and melted into water.
"A trivial skill!" sneered the head of Xiu Ling Peak; although she said that, she was still quite surprised in her heart.
The other party was able to easily dissolve her attack and strike back, indicating that their strength was not below hers!
"As Senior Brother said, this Yuxing Valley is indeed a mysterious organization founded by a group of extraordinary people from the world."
With a wave of his arm, Xiu Lingfeng drew the Tai Xu Divine Sword from Mu Qianying's body, and a majestic sword intent instantly spread out.
As the water vapor churned, everything pointed at by the sword intent was shattered by its unmatched sharpness, and the four black leopards were also turned into a powder of starlight and dissipated into the air.
The head of the Silver Yao Sect saw the opponent rushing towards him, and his hands suddenly stretched out. A pair of sharp and black-clawed leopard paws appeared instantly, and his body rushed towards the opponent.
Mo Yuan saw the two of them fighting fiercely, his pupils shrinking, and he couldn't help feeling a little shocked and delighted in his heart.
This unexpected helper at least saved him a lot of effort.
"Now, it's time to take action!" Mo Yuan's eyes immediately locked onto Xie Lingtian in front of Yan Qing'er and Gu Changlao.
'This kid must die!' thought Mo Yuan fiercely in his heart.
'Get him!' Mo Yuan's eyes gleamed with killing intent. He didn't care about the affiliations of these people, as long as they were hostile, they needed to be eradicated!
"Yes!" Mo Wuya, Mo Ling, and the elite offspring of the Mo family answered in unison.
Mo Yuan and Mo Wuya led a team of men and horses and rushed towards Xie Lingtian; while Mo Ling trapped the five black-clothed men in the corner of the formation.
The old Gu Chang felt a little nervous when she saw two Heavenly Spirit Realm powerhouses attacking her. She couldn't forcefully elevate her cultivation to the Heavenly Spirit Realm at the moment.
With her peak Lingyuan Realm strength, she might be defeated within a few moves against two genuine Heavenly Spirit Realm powerhouses!
But now the situation is such that she has no choice but to retreat!
"Hey, you two old men teaming up against a woman, isn't that a bit too much?" came a soft voice from far away and gradually drew near.
Before the words had even finished, the purple-clothed old man appeared in front of Gu Changlao, blocking the path of Mo Yuan and Mo Wuya.
Mo Yuan and Mo Wuya couldn't help but stop their footsteps, their expressions stiffened, and their gaze towards the purple-clothed old man became full of caution.
"If it's not related to this matter, I advise you to mind your own business!" Mo Yuan said in a deep voice, narrowing his eyes with a sinister gaze.
"Hey, I don't want to meddle either...but unfortunately, I was entrusted by someone, so I have no choice," the Purple Cloth Elder scratched his head, wearing a helpless expression.
Between the conversation, Mu Qianying and Qian Jing also came to the side of Xie Lintian.
"Lintian!"
"Brother Lintian!"
Both of them called out to Xie Lintian while half squatting.
Under the continuous supply of spiritual energy from Yan Qing'er, Xie Lintian finally regained consciousness and woke up.
"Qianying!" Xie Lingtian's eyes lit up when he saw Mu Qianying, but he felt dizzy and had to put his hands on the ground and pant.
A solid blow from a Heaven Spirit Realm expert is no joke.
If it weren't for his powerful and tenacious demon body, he would have died a long time ago.
"It's you..." Xie Lintian looked at Gu Changlao, Qian Jing, Yanyinger behind him, and his heart felt warm.
"You're awake now. Take this pill and your injuries will heal faster," Yan Qing'er said, looking a bit tired as she stood up and handed him a pill.
"Thank you, Qing'er," Xie Lingtian took the spirit medicine from Yan Qing'er, inadvertently touching her hand. Yan Qing'er recoiled her arm as if frightened, then stood aside without speaking, looking a bit unhappy.
There seemed to be an awkward atmosphere between the two, which was clear to Mù Qiǎnyǐng and Qiān Jǐng; and at this moment, there was also an indescribable feeling between him and Mù Qiǎnyǐng.
It seems that he has really become a husband and should not have the illusion of having any affairs with other women.
Qian Jing looked left and right, feeling a headache. She quickly took Xie Lintian to one side.
“Brother, it's not that I'm criticizing you, but your relationship makes my head ache just by looking at it. You'll have to think about it yourself, because I can't help you with this.”
Although Qian Jing said something, it seemed like she didn't say anything at all. Xie Lingtian still felt that the atmosphere was somewhat subtle.
And just as they were in this strange atmosphere of their small group, suddenly there was a loud thunderous sound coming from the northeast.
A dazzling and enormous beam of light broke through the air, shooting straight up to the sky and illuminating the whole sky like daylight!
Immediately, a violent earthquake accompanied by fierce winds swept in, stirring up layers of dust and shrouding the sky!
Giant abysses opened up on the ground, houses collapsed one after another, and the people of Zhenzhou City once again fled in panic. However, countless people were killed by falling rocks and buried under collapsed buildings, resulting in a tragic scene of blood flowing like a river, as if hell had descended upon them.
For a moment, everyone looked in shock towards the northeast.
"What happened?"
"What is that?"
They saw a huge pillar of light suddenly split open a massive rift in the sky, as if it were a black hole leading to hell.
An enormous demon body, as vast as a mountain range, slowly hovered in the sky from the black hole, emitting a terrifying, fierce, malevolent, and destructive aura that made people tremble in fear!
Suddenly, Silver Yao Palms, Xiuling Peak Master, Mo Yuan, Mo Wuya, Purple Head Scarf Elder, Xie Lintian, Yan Qing'er, Mu Qianying, Qian Jing and others all stood there dumbfounded.
Under the huge demonic body, was a mountain peak that was suspended in the air and had already split in half.
"That's... the location of the Town God Mountain!" exclaimed the Master of Xiuling Peak.
