Chapter 739: Chapter 549: Leave the Explanation to Them

Southern Hong, Immortal’s Cave.

Two figures stood outside the cave, clearly in the midst of an argument.

"No, Zi Lan, listen to me, I really never thought it would come to this. You know my brother has issues in his head!"

Yue Tiance gave a wry smile and made a pleading gesture with his clasped hands, simultaneously using his shoulder to block Zi Lan Fairy’s path, "Don’t rush, lest he goes mad and hurts you. Rest assured, I will save him for you, just trust me this once."

"..."

Zi Lan Fairy glared angrily at the man before her, remembering how he had previously helped her unconditionally. Her chest heaved rapidly before she finally managed to steady her breathing, "One incense stick’s time, I’ll only wait that long."

She really found it hard to imagine, the Seven Sons of Southern Hong, already so cautious, relegated themselves to a corner of Southern Hong.

Yue Tian Ji, as the eldest legitimate son of a major Northern Hong family, actually still went out of his way to cause trouble, taking advantage of someone else’s peril, utterly despicable!

"Don’t worry! That’s enough time! I’ll go and speak to him now."

Yue Tiance calmed the other party and then turned around to stride into the cave, his apologetic expression immediately fading away as soon as his figure entered.

He crossed his arms and leaned against the wall, silently watching ahead.

Between the ruins of the shattered hall, on a large sloping wooden beam, a wooden body was tightly bound by the Spiritual Rope.

In front of the beam, a man who looked seventy percent similar to Yue Tiance, but much more aged and haggard, squatted down, his fingers slowly grazing over the wooden body, his raspy voice echoing in the Immortal’s Cave.

"What an interesting method, so this is how you’ve barely managed to survive."

"What have you been doing for these past hundred thousand years, cowering under a woman?"

"I really find it hard to imagine that the person I’ve been longing for day and night now..."

Crack! Crack!

His fingers suddenly crushed the wooden corpse, viciously tearing off a large chunk.

"Has become so weak."

The man raised his head, appearing both crying and laughing, and he opened his mouth, saliva connecting in threads, and from deep within his throat, he roared, "Where is your foundation, where is your Hongmeng Purple Qi! You can’t even take out your Dao Soldier now, can you?"

Without the Hongmeng Purple Qi, the Dao Palace is deficient, thus unable to summon the Immortal City.

Accompanied by the roar, Yue Tian Ji fiercely punched, and in front of that powerful Demon Body, Xuan Qing’s body suddenly exploded into pieces, but in an instant as the wood dust flew about, the man clasped his hands again and the scattered wood dust instantly gathered back, reforming the wooden body to its original state.

"Look, all the Myriad Laws you knew, now I know them too."

Yue Tian Ji boasted as he pressed his palm against Xuan Qing’s face, then burst into frenzied sobbing, "What’s the use? You are just a piece of trash now! You are not even worthy of my painstaking efforts!"

In the midst of these howls, Xuan Qing looked at him indifferently and finally spoke, "That’s enough, let him go."

"Did I allow you to speak?!"

Yue Tian Ji fiercely exerted force, again crushing Xuan Qing’s head, "I know you must have prepared a backup plan. You can try it if you want, even if you invite all the Sect Masters of the South Hong Seven Sons, whether they can save him from my hands in time, and after I crush this bell, whether they dare to offend my Northern Hong Yue Family because of a few Return to Void Loose Cultivators."

"..."

Xuan Qing closed his eyes, he was no fool; on the contrary, a hundred thousand years of meditation had made him even more lucid.

After that incident, the Sect Masters who were as close as brothers surely also began to weigh gains and losses, a growth from lessons learned.

Even if they were furious, aside from tormenting their hearts, there would be no substantial action.

Because those master-uncles had already learned how to be proper Sect Masters by taking Nanyang Sect as a lesson.

In a hidden corner outside the Immortal’s Cave.

Li Qingfeng curled up, holding a Dao Plate and a mirror in his hands, watching the scene within the mirror, already inadvertently biting through his lip.

A group of Nanyang natives, along with a group of Vassal Loose Cultivators picked up from outside by the Sect Masters, were abducted; within the entire Seven Sons of South Hong, only Nanyang Sect would compare them and the major forces of Northern Hong.

Among this rare group, Elder Xuan Qing cared only because he knew Sect Master Shen cared.

Certainly, even though he had seen the situation very clearly, Elder Xuan Qing still let him bring the Dao Plate here, in case Yue Tian Ji truly reneged, if there was even a slight possibility, he intended to summon several Sect Masters in person.

Before this, the more the other party was tortured, the higher the chance the Sect Masters would intervene.

Sharp voices arose again inside the Immortal’s Cave.

"If you want me to let him go, then stand up and fight me properly." Yue Tian Ji unlocked the Spiritual Rope.

Xuan Qing appeared somewhat helpless, but he still enacted the same spell he had used before to restore his head as it was originally.

This sort of "spell-duel" had already occurred dozens of times in recent days.

The opponent seemed to revel in it, repeating the act over and over.

Without the support of the Dao Soldier and the Immortal City, and missing much Hongmeng Purple Qi, Xuan Qing, let alone confronting Yue Tian Ji, even an ordinary Baiyu Capital Cultivator could defeat him now.

But he didn’t say much, adroitly manipulated the Spiritual Technique, and a Dao Sword suddenly turned into dense, swarming sword shadows, attacking from all directions.

Yue Tian Ji, unflinching and indifferent, watched as these Dao Swords shattered against him.

Then he strode forward, slapped Xuan Qing to the ground, and then pinned him down firmly, "Are you joking with me?"

Watching this scene unfold.

"Tsk."
