177 Resolving the Contemptible Scoundrels
Elder Li looked at the back of the two people walking away, his eyes full of sympathy. He only hoped that these two people knew their own limits and would not go looking for death.
The things that happened in the secret realm were still vivid in their minds. Ye Xuan’s power was beyond their imagination.
Shen Hai and Xie Yixuan only felt that Elder Li was sick, and it was a serious illness as if he had been brainwashed by Ye Xuan.
They tried to probe the others, and the situation was similar.
There were even some who directly showed a vigilant expression and refused to say a word, which made the two somewhat inexplicable and couldn’t help but ridicule.
“I’m afraid Ye Xuan has cast a spell on these people. How did they become like this after coming back from the secret realm?”
If the two of them knew what had happened in the secret realm, they would not even have the courage to face Ye Xuan, let alone deal with him.
The most important thing was that their little tricks these days had been reported to Ye Xuan in the blink of an eye. They probably didn’t realize that Ye Xuan’s support from the people had already reached this point.
“Elder Chen and Elder Xie have been disrespectful to you previously and have repeatedly provoked you. This time, they are unrepentant. Should we expel them?”
Ye Xuan didn’t want to pay attention to these two contemptible scoundrels, but he felt that it was unnecessary to do it himself, so he let the Penglai Immortal Beasts take care of these people.
The next day, they received news that they were attacked and needed to recuperate for a while.
At this point, everyone in the Tai Qing Sect followed Ye Xuan’s lead.
“By the way, have you found the whereabouts of the sect master?”
“Elder Ye, after you entered the secret realm, we have not given up on searching, but we have not found any clues about the sect master.”
After coming out of the secret realm, those who were close to Ye Xuan, including those sects, all sent manpower to search for her. Strangely, they still couldn’t find Han Yue, as if she had disappeared from the world.
“Could it be that the sect master has already left Jingdu?”
Just as Ye Xuan was deep in thought, a few grand elders suddenly came to visit.
“Sorry to disturb you, but I actually have some questions to ask.”
Initially, these grand elders wanted to go to the secret realm to check out the situation. However, they realized that the secret realm had suddenly disappeared as if it had never appeared.
In this way, all the clues were cut off, so he could only put his target on Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan was also a little surprised that the secret realm would suddenly disappear.
“Actually, according to the previous commotion, the secret realm won’t be able to hold on for long. It’s just that we want to investigate the origin of the black mist, but we don’t know where to start. We can only trouble you.”
It was no wonder that these grand elders were on guard. The things that happened in the secret realm were truly shocking.
The black mist could actually transform people into immortal monsters. If this news were to spread to the outside world, one could imagine how much of a stir it would cause.
This was also the reason why they made the surviving disciples swear on their Dao hearts.
“There’s one more thing. The disciples who were once infected by the black mist have lost their memories of that period. They only said that they were attacked by the black mist of unknown origin and then fell unconscious.”
Ye Xuan told them everything he knew, but he hid some information about the Penglai Immortal Beasts and Penglai Immortal Island. He only said that he had accidentally entered the underground palace and discovered these things by accident.
Some people had already guessed that the black mist had an extraordinary origin, but they didn’t expect it to be from the millennium. Moreover, from Ye Xuan’s tone, someone was controlling it behind the scenes.
Even though these grand elders had extraordinary status and powerful cultivation, they couldn’t help but be shocked when they heard this news. They had thought of many things before, but they never thought that it would be beyond their imagination.
“It’s actually from a thousand years ago…”
Ye Xuan’s tone was extremely calm, but everyone was shocked. The process inside could be said to be fraught with danger, and the slightest carelessness could lead to the danger of being crushed.
After so many years, one could only imagine how powerful the black mist was. No wonder it had such heaven-defying abilities. It was not difficult to understand why the people who were parasitized by the black mist were like this.
If the black mist really did emerge from the secret realm and appear in Jingdu, even with so many of them working together, they would probably not be a match for it. It would probably bring disaster to all of them.
Although immortality sounded good and could achieve another form of immortality, the price was to become such a monster. What was the difference between them and puppets? They would probably not be themselves by then.
“Fortunately, it’s all thanks to our little friend Ye Xuan this time.”
Everyone’s admiration for Ye Xuan went up another level, imperceptibly helping them avoid a great disaster.
Such a powerful and mysterious black mist had actually been destroyed by the divine lightning that Ye Xuan had drawn down.
“If it wasn’t for our little friend Ye Xuan, I’m afraid the consequences would be unimaginable. This black mist can wreak havoc in the secret realm, but we don’t know anything about it. When the secret realm is opened, we won’t be able to take any precautions.”
At this moment, their gazes were filled with respect.
Ye Xuan was very modest and didn’t take all the credit. In fact, he still had doubts about the disappearance of the black mist.
Although the golden divine lightning was indeed powerful, did the black mist really disappear? After all, it was an evil object that had existed for thousands of years, so Ye Xuan was not sure.
“You can’t say that. Although this black mist is powerful, it seems to have some restrictions. It seems to be sealed by something.”
This was his own guess.
Otherwise, he would have saved the Penglai Immortal Beasts and destroyed the black mist’s thousand-year-old plan. This alone was enough for the black mist to kill him.
In fact, he did not. Instead, he sent out those who were parasitized by the black mist and did not come personally.
It wasn’t until Ye Xuan arrived at the underground palace and completely destroyed Bai Haoyu that the black mist finally showed up.
