Chapter 438: Heavenly Mist City is Going to Change
Translator: CatatoPatchEditor: Vermillion
Nangong Wan didn't know why, but she had a sense of brooding. Her entire body was covered with goosebumps.
The Nangong Family's courtyard was calm and peaceful… Smoke could be seen floating into the sky and it scattered in all directions.
Even though it was extremely calm, Nangong Wan felt a sense of anxiousness.
The smoke got thicker and thicker as it became a river of fog. It enveloped all life and the entire courtyard. Even Nangong Wan was shrouded in the fog.
What in the world was going on?
What was happening?
The pores on Nangong Wan's body opened as true energy flowed out of them. Her Half-Step Divine Realm cultivation caused her aura to be extremely condensed.
However, no matter how hard she tried, she was unable to blow the dense fog away.
Could it be an enemy attack?
That shouldn't be possible… This was the Nangong Family's courtyard. There were countless experts protecting the area. There was no way for an enemy to enter so deeply into the family residence.
Nangong Wan became more and more anxious. She even brought out her green alchemy fire. The expression on her face was extremely grave.
”Who is it? Get your ass out here! Since you dare to attack my Nangong Family, you'd better stop hiding and get out here!” Nangong Wan was unable to control herself and she shouted.
Shush…
The fog which filled the surroundings became thicker.
Nangong Wan's shout could be heard echoing through the entire courtyard… The entire residence was extremely quiet and the silence gave her an uneasy feeling.
Haha!
A sound of laughter could be heard coming from all four directions and Nangong Wan was unable to find its source.
Boom!
Her alchemy fire erupted and covered the entire courtyard. It rose to the sky like a fire phoenix, covering the entire sky.
However, it seemed as though there was a wall of wind blocking her attack. When her alchemy fire smashed into the wall, it only managed to light up half the sky.
Nangong Wan's heart instantly sunk. Who would have thought that her attack wouldn't be able to break through the dense fog?
Within the fog, a human shadow could be seen floating in the air. It gradually became clearer and Nangong Wan stared straight at the shadow. The fog gradually dispersed and the shadow stood right in front of Nangong Wan.
When she looked at the appearance of the person standing in front of her, Nangong Wan's eyes narrowed as she released a cold breath.
”Second Elder… How could the Second Elder be here? Didn't he follow father into the Cloud Sea Secret Realm? What i s he doing here?”
The Second Elder, Nangong Xuanying, was an existence who broke through two of the Supreme-Being's shackles.
”Didn't he follow father into the Cloud Sea Secret Realm? Wasn't today the day where they would both return?”
What was the Second Elder Doing there? This made absolutely no sense.
Everything was in a mess right now and Nangong Wan wasn't able to process everything in her brain.
With a wide smile on his face, the Second Elder looked at Nangong Wan. His eyes revealed some sort of complex scheme.
”Little Wan, why don't you follow grandpa Xuanying? Grandpa will bring you to a good place. No harm will come to you.” Nangong Xuanying spoke to Nangong Wan with a mild tone. The gaze which he used to look at her seemed to be filled with warmth and affection.
Nangong Wan immediately started to think. Something seemed extremely off. Everything which happened seemed extremely strange. Why did the Second Elder need to bring her elsewhere? Nangong Wan was no fool. Although she didn't know what was going on, she knew that if she followed the Second Elder, she would be trapped.
While the tone of the Second Elder was friendly and warm, a chill ran down Nangong Wan's spine. She felt extremely cold in her heart.
”Come… Follow Grandpa Xuanying.”
Nangong Xuanying raised his hand as he made a hand gesture toward Nangong Wan.
”No!”
Nangong Wan's eyes lit up as a green alchemy fire enveloped her entire body. An explosion rang out from below her feet as a wild gust of wind blew through the entire area.
Nangong Wan inhaled a deep breath as she turned around. She was ready to dash out of the courtyard. She was trying to escape!
The smile on Nangong Xuanying's face disappeared.
”Why wouldn't you listen to me… You have the same temperament as your father. Too bad… With this kind of temperament, you won't face a good outcome,” Nangong Xuanying said in a cold voice and became serious.
Looking at the streak of light which was escaping from his field of vision, Nangong Xuanying raised his palm. Two streaks of hidden black chains appeared on his back all of a sudden. The Pressure of Heaven and Earth became agitated instantly.
An enormous pressure pinned Nangong Wan to the ground and her eyes widened.
The Pressure of Heaven and Earth released by a Supreme-Being who broke through two of the Supreme-Being's shackles wasn't something a half-step Divine Realm like Nangong Wan could handle. The gap in strength was too wide.
Facing the pressure, she was unable to do anything. The expression in her eyes was filled with doubt and unwillingness. She didn't want to be part of whatever was happening.
...
The dense white fire covered the entire area as it burned through the True Yuan energy from the transport array.
As the transport array opened, the entire building shook. From the top to the bottom, the entire building started shaking.
Nangong Wuque, who controlled the Nine Hell King Flame, looked on with a steady glance.
The Great Elder, Nangong Xuanhe, stood at the far end as he looked at Nangong Wuque who looked quite dashing. With a twitch of his mouth, a smile was revealed.
The transport array shone brightly as it was opened. A ray of light shot towards the sky and through the clouds.
Heavenly Mist City quickly experienced rapid changes. The originally clear sky became covered with dark clouds.
This presence…
All the members of the top families turned their gazes into the sky and all the experts in Heavenly Mist City did the same. They looked toward the source of the fluctuation.
Did the Nangong Family open another transportation array? Could it be that the members of the Nangong Family were returning from the Secret Realm? The fight for the position to enter the secret realm would start again soon...
Before long, the entire Heavenly Mist City became filled with chatter.
