The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor
Chapter 667 - 666: Leaving First

Chapter 667: Chapter 666: Leaving First

At this moment.

The quarreling between Red Sparrow Institute and Six Demon Sect seemed to have momentarily halted, and everyone’s gaze returned once more to Ye Xuan and the others.

Under the watchful eyes of all, Ye Xuan led his group, having already arrived at the entrance to Hengduan Mountain.

Upon reaching this place, everyone immediately felt a vast pressure assaulting them, a pressure that made one’s scalp explode and evoked a feeling of wanting to kneel in submission.

Heavenly Dao Restriction!

These were natural restrictions formed by heaven and earth, also the reason why Hengduan Mountain was known as a Forbidden Land.

No one could withstand the prohibitions of the Heavenly Dao.

Even Huang Yue from the Mountain God Dao turned pale at this moment, a serious look surfacing in his eyes.

If the people present had not believed in Ye Xuan, they probably would have already turned around and left.

The oppressive force of the Heavenly Dao that was transmitted made it difficult for anyone to resist.

It was only because none of them had reached the Saint Realm; otherwise, even if they had not yet touched the entrance’s Heavenly Dao restriction, they would have been instantly killed.

This kind of power was not something ordinary people could bear.

Ye Xuan took the lead, walking at the very front; the suppression he suffered was the strongest, and even the Dao Patterns on his body were automatically activated.

A power, immune to all techniques, was slowly emerging.

Ye Xuan took out his right hand from his pocket, slowly raised it, and gestured for those behind him to stop.

Following that, Ye Xuan formed a Daoist Seal with his right hand and began to chant towards the entrance of Hengduan Mountain.

That scene made everyone tense up, and they hardly dared to breathe heavily.

And, in the distance, the tens of millions of cultivators from East Desolate waiting for the entrance to open displayed various expressions: some puzzled, some mocking, and some indifferent, as if they were watching a dead man.

No one could understand what Ye Xuan was doing.

In others’ view, Ye Xuan was a fool, engaging in the actions of a fool, followed by a group of other fools.

"What on earth is that guy doing?" Ye Qingyue really wanted to rush up and ask Ye Xuan.

Not just Ye Qingyue, but Lei Mingze, Leng Hongmi, Ruan Mengyue, and even Qu Zhongyuan, An Xueyao, and others were all full of doubt.

Was Ye Xuan planning to open Hengduan Mountain single-handedly?

That was simply impossible.

Moreover, there were only two hours left until the true opening of Hengduan Mountain.

Two hours was but a blink of an eye for cultivators.

Couldn’t they wait?

Everyone thought Ye Xuan must have gone mad; otherwise, why would he do such a thing?

"Does this person not even require my intervention..."

The Eighth Prince from the Heavenly Dragon Dynasty watched the scene, a hint of coldness appearing in his eyes.

He was determined to kill Ye Xuan, not just because of the deaths of Dong Xiyue and Zheng Wenlun, but also due to their opposing stances.

"Since he is seeking his own death, we’re too lazy to bother," commented Wei Qing, who seemed indifferent with a smile. To this matter, he didn’t mind at all.

Death was good; it would save him from dirtying his hands.

"Do you guys really think someone would lead his people to their deaths?" Chang Zuhua from the Myriad Artifacts Saint Sect, however, narrowed his eyes thoughtfully.

He always felt that things weren’t that simple, only he couldn’t figure out the depth of it.

In fact, no one could understand what Ye Xuan was thinking.

The actions of Ye Xuan had already gone beyond the realm of ordinary people’s imagination.

Especially those who had previously entered Hengduan Mountain, they were even more puzzled about what exactly Ye Xuan was trying to do.

Hengduan Mountain, being a renowned Forbidden Land in East Desolate, attracted countless cultivators each time it opened.

That’s why there were so many records on Hengduan Mountain.

But never had there been an instance when its opening was advanced.

The opening of Hengduan Mountain had always followed a three-thousand-year cycle, not a minute more, not a minute less.

An early opening?

Heh.

Wishful thinking.

Who do you think you are? Would Hengduan Mountain open early just for you?

It’s simply a joke!

In the midst of everyone’s confusion and ceaseless mockery, Ye Xuan finished reciting.

Then, under the gaze of all, Ye Xuan gently pushed with both hands.

It was as if he were pushing an invisible gate.

However, in reality, there was no change whatsoever.

"Has this kid lost his mind?" Mu Yiyang, who was following Prince Peng, couldn’t help but frown and speak out.

No one answered him.

At this moment, everyone was watching Ye Xuan.

After "pushing" open that gate, Ye Xuan stepped aside and said in a gentle voice, "You all go in first. Remember my words, once you’re inside, do not move around. Stay where you are and wait for me."

"Yes!"

The crowd responded in unison.

At this moment, Zhou Youwei took the lead, exchanging a glance with Ye Xuan. They both nodded slightly, understanding each other without words.

Zhou Youwei took that first step.

Hum————

And as Zhou Youwei took that step, her figure instantly vanished from everyone’s sight.

Zhou Bingyi, following behind, turned somewhat pale at the scene, but she still gritted her teeth and followed suit.

Zhou Bingyi also disappeared.

Then, one after another, Ye Ling’er, Ye Yuxuan, Ye Hao, Duan Rourou, Zhu Xiaofei, and others, disappeared in succession.

Under the watchful eyes of all, person after person vanished from sight.

Moments later, with Huang Yue gone as well, only Ye Xuan stood there.

"This..."

The scene left everyone flabbergasted.

What’s happening here?

Wasn’t it said Hengduan Mountain wouldn’t open in advance?

Suddenly, a few people couldn’t sit still anymore and started flying toward the entrance of Hengduan Mountain.

Boom!

However, the moment they neared the entrance, a terrifying force erupted, instantly killing those few cultivators.

They were completely obliterated!

Those cultivators were all of the Heavenly Human Realm.

But they couldn’t even withstand it for an instant and died on the spot.

This moment caused an uproar.

"What’s going on, Ye Xuan’s group has clearly already gone in, why can’t the others?"

If not for the knowledge that this was Hengduan Mountain, some might even suspect Ye Xuan had used a backdoor.

"Gentlemen, just wait patiently."

Unconcerned by the deaths of those several cultivators, Ye Xuan faced the myriad cultivators from East Desolate, smiled faintly, turned, and with one step, vanished from view.

Now, everyone was truly unsettled.

But, having witnessed the recent outcome, although they were anxious, no one dared to test the waters.

"What exactly is going on?" Fierce Sun Saint frowned and spoke to the red-robed elder beside him.

"This shouldn’t be happening..." The red-robed elder was also full of confusion and said in a low voice, "Three thousand years ago, I entered Hengduan Mountain with a senior from my sect, and we all waited for Hengduan Mountain to open naturally before proceeding along the mountain path. There’s something off about Ye Xuan, it seems they didn’t really enter Hengduan Mountain, but rather went somewhere else?"

"There are multiple places in Hengduan Mountain?" Fierce Sun Saint furrowed his brow.

The red-robed elder quickly replied, "No, this is just my speculation, but their disappearance indeed defies logic."

Fierce Sun Saint didn’t speak further since he felt the man’s words were utterly nonsensical.

Didn’t he know it defied logic?

If he did, why the hell would he ask!

"Send someone to check it out," Fierce Sun Saint said indifferently.

As these words were spoken, the disciples of the Fierce Sun Heavenly Sect behind him grew visibly apprehensive, while a few elders appeared nonchalant, each focusing on their own breath.

The fate of those Heavenly Human Realm cultivators was still fresh in their minds; to go and investigate was to embrace a certain death!

Whoever went would be a fool...
