Li Yundong exhaled slowly and crossed his ar, confident, like he could handle anything; and the reassuring presence of the Fan of Seven Treasures under his feet only served to bolster that confidenceDeep inside hisa steady strea hisin his lower Dantian where they were absorbed by his Vital OrbHis spiritual energy had never felt so powerful before
”Who are you?”
Li Yundong glanced down at the owner of that cold voice—a youngthe assaultThanks to the Fan of Seven Treasures, the 's face
Li Yundong could tell that the ht difference
”Who are you?” the man repeated in a harsher tone
”Someone who is about to put an end to your barbaric acts,” Li Yundong said as he scanned the faces of everyone in the large assee
C' pushed his Zhenqi to his Shenting
Ningshen: Eryue!
A soft buzzing entered his ears
”Barbaric, you say?”
The golden sword rose until its length was parallel to the ground
Under his feet, the Fan of Seven Treasures started quivering uncontrollablyEasy, buddy… Easy, Li Yundong sent a telepathic e to the fanLetstopped
”Attacking a wounded oldcommander”What else would you call that? An act of virtue?”
The golden sword lowered until its tip touched the ground
Li Yundong ignored the look of incredulity on the young commander's face and continued to scan the crowd for Zi Yuan's elegant figure
Zi Yuan hadn't spoken to hiranted to hishen phase, he still found it difficult to isolate Zi Yuan's voice fro the te whispers fro who he was
There were just too Godda roared
The Great Six's legion fell silent
”…hear o…
Zi Yuan's voice sounded like it calanced up surreptitiously but saw nothingSo she wasn't in the sky, then
Maybe she's on higher ground?
”… Left”
Li Yundong frownedWhat? Left? His eyes darted leftHe didn't see Zi Yuan or Ruan Hongling
What did she mean, left?
He focused harder on Zi Yuan's voice
”…leftI repeat, if you can hear me, turn your head left,” Zi Yuan whispered softly
Li Yundong turned his head left
”I repeat—” There was a hitch in Zi Yuan's voice”You can hear ain
”About tih her voice was only a whisper”Talk to him” There was a pause”He probably can't hear me, but I don’t want to take any chances”
Li Yundong glanced down at theback at Li Yundong with calculating eyes, as though he was trying to decide his next ot the impression that the man wanted to attack, but was too wary to do so
Li Yundong uncrossed his arms and waved a hand at the te these people?”
”That's it… Keep talking to hi coion re co
”Here are the basic facts,” Zi Yuan said in her nore of the co-qiánbèi is still alive, but she was sealed inside a powerful …”
Li Yundong decided that he didn't like that tone; it sounded way too o
”It… It was… It was my shībó… She…” He heard a sharp intake of breath”She's the one behind everythingI… Sorry” Zi Yuan cleared her throat”Hongling has scoured the entire Mount Tianlong including the suns of Su ChanThe only place we haven't checked is the temple—”
”Don’t'…” Zi Yuan's voice hardened the ling is already inside the teht now, you need to stay here and hold off the attack, do you understand?”
Li Yundong clenched his jaw and turned back around to face the legion of the Great Six's CultivatorsThe young cohter
”What the hell is so funny?” Li Yundong growled”Are the lives of those wohtering thelare at the man”Do you not fear Buddha's wrath?”
Those who hearcoh”I'm sorry, but you seem to be a bit confused here” The commander levelled his sword at the temple”That, my friend, is the Fox Zen SchoolThe lair of fox spirits” The tip of the sword shi+fted towards a group of woathered beside the entrance”And they, are all fox spirits”
”And you're all supposed to be Cultivators,” Li Yundong said brusquely”Not a bunch of cold-blooded killers”
The same look of incredulity flitted across the coain, but Li Yundong was too focused on Zi Yuan's voice to listen to the
”Keep Grandmaster Liu Ye alive” There was a pause”The Great Seer is our only hope of finding Su Chan if it turns out that she isn't inside the telance at the te women had formed a circle around the injured old manA few of the wo to his woundsThe rest of theuard their leader with their lives
Li Yundong had counted three dead bodies so farOne ender of the third body since bones and dry skin were all that was left of it; there wasn't even any clothing or fabric lying around to help hi co
”…of the Great SixThis does not concern the Esoteric Sect”
”The Esoteric Sect?” Li Yundong raised his brow”Who says I'm from the Esoteric Sect?”
Zi Yuan's voice drifted to his ears again”That's Zhang Tianhé zhenren froe in her tone when she mentioned that name”Do not underestimate him” A pause”He's the only one here that you need to worry aboutThe others don't stand a chance against you”
”Oh? So you're saying you're not frohed”Sorry, but I don't buy itOnly a true master from the Esoteric Sect can pull off the techniques from the Mahamudra Tantra like you did”
The crowd erupted in screa zhenren's lips
Zhang zhenren thrust the golden sword towards the sky”Silence!”
The uproar died down
”That's the Sword of Seven Stars,” Zi Yuan whispered”A very powerful swordIt's one of the five most well-knoords in the Cultivation world”
”… I don't knohat kind of connection you have with the Fox Zen School,” Zhang zhenren continued, ”but letzhenren took a step forward”Fro raised his brows
”Walk away,” Zhang zhenren said coldly
Li Yundong stared at the hing and glared at Zhang zhenren”And let you slaughter these people?” He jerked his chin towards the tee you to reconsider, my friendThis is an official business that you're interfering with”
Li Yundong's brows rose higher”Official business?”
”This assault was sanctioned by the Great SixAny atteainst the Great Six” Zhang zhenren paused e to turn a blind eye if you walk away now”
Anger coursed through Li Yundong
”I' zhenren shook his head”Listen tozhenren pointed at the teround for evilNothing good will coanizationYour name and reputation will be tarnished forever if you associate yourself with them!”
”If they are evil, then what are you?” Li Yundong said, crossing his arain”Thieves? Robbers? Murderers?”
Zhang zhenren's expression faltered
Instead of leaping down fro lowered himself into a crouch so that their faces were closer”I'll tell you what you are,” he sneered, pointing a finger at Zhang zhenren”You're all bigotsDogmatists who villainize anyone with different values” He lowered his finger and let his gaze sweep across the ar zhenren”Wolves in a sheep's clothingDevilsflickered inside Zhang zhenren's eyes, which had groide at the accusation
”GoodJust keep talking,” Zi Yuan said”None of the because they're afraid of youLet's try to keep it that way”
”You're erous tone
Li Yundong smirked”A mista—”
Shrieks and screams broke out before he could finish his sentence
”No! Liu zhǎng wheeled around and saw the Fox Zen School's wo around franticallyshi+tDid the old man just die?
