Chapter 782 Mysterious Force (Part 1)
Somewhere in the central section of the Heavenly Sun World, Qi Le and Chu Yu held hands as they traveled along.
A figure followed behind them, and Qi Le stopped in his tracks.
The figure behind him immediately ran forward in a flattering manner.
"Grandnephew, do you have anything you want?"
The grand elder had a flattering smile on his face.
Qi Le was completely speechless.
"I already left the Li family, so why are you following me? If you want to restore the Li family's reputation, you can go ahead and attack."
"What are you saying?" the grand elder said sternly, "You may not be a member of the Li family, but you are my grandnephew."
"It's perfectly normal for me to protect my grandnephew. The reputation of the Li family is unimportant in comparison."
The grand elder said righteously, "Grandnephew, the Heavenly Sun World is dangerous, and a genius like you will definitely be targeted. Although there are rules in place, some people have their own methods of circumventing them."
Qi Le's face darkened. The grand elder was like a stalker, constantly following him around.
It was not good to really fall out with him.
He had fallen out with the Li family, but did not want to fall out with the grand elder.
The grand elder had asked him to return to the Li family, but he had not agreed. However, the grand elder still helped him take revenge against Madam Li, and also punished Li Wufeng to kneel in the ancestral temple and repent.
He was always thinking for Qi Le's best interests. The grand elder was also the reason why he had enjoyed all of the Li family's benefits.
In such a situation, Qi Le did not want to return kindness with evil.
He rubbed his forehead and ignored the grand elder. If the latter wanted to follow him around, then so be it. When he returned to visit his master, he would find a way to get rid of him.
…
Chu Xuan was currently preaching the Dao to the four divine beasts to help them break through to the Dao Supreme realm, though to them, it was less of a breakthrough, and more of a recovery of their former strength.
Suddenly, Chu Xuan felt something.
At his level, he would be able to sense any schemes that involved him, so long as the person scheming was weaker than he was.
A Dao Supreme realm expert was scheming against him?
It did not seem like it, as the sensation would not have been so weak.
Was this person testing him through his personal disciples?
"Derive the karmic link that I've sensed."
Chu Xuan used the system's derivation function, and an image projection appeared in his mind.
Somewhere in a desolate place stood a black stone house. Inside, there was a skinny old man sitting cross-legged.
At this moment, the old man frowned.
"The Xuan Gate sect's Qi Le and Chu Yu… They might make for good chess pieces," the old man muttered.
After a while, a figure appeared outside the stone house. The old man gave that person a few instructions, and the figure disappeared.
Several years later, the old man seemed to have sensed something again and left the stone house.
The scene disappeared.
Chu Xuan narrowed his eyes.
That old man was a Dao Supreme realm expert; one of six that currently resided in the Heavenly Sun World.
A few years later, he would take action personally to try and make Qi Le and Chu Yu his pawns.
Chu Xuan was not bothered by him, but rather the mysterious force that seemed to influence these Dao Supreme realm experts.
Those were his true opponents.
"Derive the hands that move in the dark."
"The derivation will consume one-ten-thousandth of your origin energy. Do you want to continue? "
Chu Xuan immediately refused.
A ten-thousandth of the origin energy of a Dao Supreme Ruler was a very terrifying amount.
This meant that the mysterious force was stronger than he was currently.
It seemed that Qi Le's and Chu Yu's talent had finally attracted the attention of certain existences who wanted to make use of them.
Furthermore, if such monstrous geniuses were not controlled in time, it was easy for unknown variables to occur in their scheme.
Chu Xuan sneered inwardly. They wanted to make his disciples pawns?
How delusional!
Although they were stronger than him now, Chu Xuan believed that he would catch up soon. Moreover, it seemed like that mysterious force could not directly show themselves.
Perhaps they were not in the Heavenly Sun World or the chaos…
Chu Xuan called Chunlan over.
"Go and protect Little Le'er."
"Little Le'er is in danger?" Chunlan asked, startled.
"There are some guys who want to use him and Chu Yu as pawns," Chu Xuan yawned and said lazily.
He passed a jade talisman to Chunlan and said, "Take this jade talisman with you. If a Dao Supreme realm expert doesn't show up, then you don't need to show up either. The rest can be dealt with by the others."
"Yes, sect master."
Chunlan took the jade talisman and left the valley. She did not probe the matter further.
Such schemes involving Dao Supreme Rulers was not something she would try to interfere with.
Time flowed like water, and another hundred thousand years passed.
After Chunlan left, she returned once every ten thousand years.
She continued to protect Qi Le and Chu Yu.
That Dao Supreme realm expert had been scared away by Chunlan during this time, and the other party realized how mysterious and powerful the Xuan Gate sect was.
Those two disciples were protected by a Dao Supreme realm expert!
