The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud

Chapter 484: Cang Yun’s Spotlight Moment

“This bastard, what is he trying to do?

Could it be that he wants to drag my Dongxuan Academy down with him?”

Han Ning frowned and muttered to himself.

His gaze fell upon another Soul Formation stage elder.

The latter’s face was equally grim.

The two of them could be considered the most composed individuals who had entered the Daitan Ruins.

They had only brought Dongxuan Academy’s younger generation to broaden their horizons and pick up some treasures.

They had never intended to clash head-on with the top powers of the several states.

After all, although the two of them were Soul Formation stage cultivators, they were only at the middle stage.

Their primary task was to ensure the safety of the younger disciples of Dongxuan Academy.

But Cang Yun’s actions at this moment undoubtedly dragged the academy into the fray.

“Who is that guy?

He seems a bit unfamiliar. He shouldn’t be from Evil Moon Sect or Treasure Gathering Pavilion, right?”

“If I’m not mistaken, I saw him with Dongxuan Academy back when we were in Dan Holy City.

I didn’t expect the always aloof Dongxuan Academy to step forward, but what’s surprising is that they chose to side with Evil Moon Sect.”

“…”

Cang Yun’s sudden appearance naturally aroused everyone’s curiosity.

Many eyes turned towards Han Ning and the others from Dongxuan Academy.

In this instant, Cang Yun and the people of Dongxuan Academy undoubtedly became the center of attention.

Hou Zhenxi, Ancestor of Heavenly Fiend Sect and others looked at Cang Yun standing in the middle and couldn’t help but frown.

A sharp murderous aura suddenly emanated from Hou Zhenxi’s body.

He was about to eliminate Cang Yun directly.

But at this moment, Cang Yun spoke directly, “My name is Cang Yun, from Dongxuan Academy, a direct descendant of the Huangzhou Cang family.”

At this time, Cang Yun directly declared his lineage.

Hearing this, Hou Zhenxi and the others stopped in their tracks.

Their brows furrowed again.

They had to admit that the two words “Dongxuan Academy” still carried a certain amount of weight.

At least in this public setting, they had no reason to kill a talented disciple of Dongxuan Academy.

Until Cang Yun revealed his family background, Han Ning and the others on the other side couldn’t help but speak up.

Han Ning stepped forward into the air.

He looked directly at Cang Yun and said in a sharp tone: “Cang Yun, Dongxuan Academy will not be involved in this matter. Come back quickly!”

If Cang Yun’s actions were purely personal, and he insisted on participating using the reputation of the Huangzhou Cang family, Han Ning naturally wouldn’t interfere.

But for him to act under the banner of Dongxuan Academy, they had to step in.

In response to Han Ning’s words, Cang Yun smiled and said, “Elder, please remain calm.”

He then turned his gaze to all the top powers present.

He pointed to the grand hall in front of him and said, “Actually, everything this time is very simple. Our ultimate goal is just this hall.

And you may not know that there are already quite a few people in the hall at this moment. “

Cang Yun’s words caused a stir among all the top powers gathered on the square.

Everyone who came here had only seen the Evil Moon Sect’s Longyan Branch and the Holy City’s Treasure Gathering Pavilion.

The main gate was tightly shut.

Most people assumed that the Evil Moon Sect’s Longyan Branch was the first to arrive, and they believed that no one else had managed to enter the hall.

“It seems the situation is more complicated than we imagined.”

“If someone has already entered, it must be the Evil Moon Sect’s Linjiang Branch, which has the descendants of the Daitan clan.”

“Since we arrived here, I haven’t seen anyone from the Evil Moon Sect’s Linjiang Branch. It seems there’s something fishy going on.”

“…”

The crowd began discussing again.

Cang Yun’s lips curled into a smile once more.

He knew that none of the top powers present were fools. As long as he gave them a slight hint, they would connect the dots themselves.

Observing the atmosphere gradually shifting, Cang Yun revealed another smile, radiating a sense of control.

He then continued, “I believe everyone knows who has the ability to enter this hall first and obtain its treasures. I won’t say much about that.

And now, Cang Yun and the Evil Moon Sect’s Longyan Branch have discovered a way to enter the hall.”

“I believe everyone has already seen the mystery within the Tantai ruins. Compared to the potential treasures within, shouldn’t we temporarily put aside past grievances?

If we all work together, we might be able to open the hall’s doors.

Let our Dongxuan Academy act as a mediator, and I implore the Evil Moon Sect’s Longyan Branch and the Free and Unfettered Sect to temporarily lay down their animosity.

Let’s first obtain all the treasures within the Daitan Ruins, and we can settle old scores later!”

Although Cang Yun appeared confident and in control at this moment, as if he held everything in his grasp.

But deep down, he was extremely nervous.

He knew this was his only chance.

He had already felt the intense killing intent emanating from Zou Zeyu and Tuoba Junlin several times before.

Although he had weathered their killing intent unscathed, his murderous intent towards Su Jingzhen had not diminished in the slightest.

Now that all the top forces were gathered here, he wanted to seize the opportunity once more.

He knew that as long as everyone joined forces to open the grand hall’s doors, Su Jingzhen and his companions would inevitably become the target of everyone’s attacks.

Perhaps this would make it even more difficult for him to obtain some of the fortunes within.

But Su Jingzhen would undoubtedly die.

And if he missed this opportunity, and Zou Zeyu and the others were truly forced to retreat, then he wouldn’t know how to kill Su Jingzhen.

He had once again used the name of Dongxuan Academy to act as a mediator.

Even though Hou Zhenxi and Heavenly Fiend Sect and the others were furious, they dared not act rashly.

As soon as Cang Yun spoke, the square fell into a brief silence once more.

“You insolent brat, stop outing nonsense!

Considering you are a disciple of Dongxuan Academy, I won’t kill you today.

Scram!”

Before everyone could ponder his words, Hou Zhenxi, who stood at the forefront, roared at Cang Yun.

A powerful spiritual force from the Soul Formation stage suddenly blasted towards Cang Yun.

Although there was no killing intent, it sent Cang Yun flying to the edge of the square.

Hou Zhenxi was very precise with his attack. Cang Yun spat out a mouthful of blood but wasn’t seriously injured.

He immediately regained his composure, his aura still firmly locked onto the Second Elder and Zou Zeyu.

For Hou Zhenxi, whether or not they obtained the blessings was no longer important.

The humiliation suffered by the Free and Unfettered Sect at the hands of the Evil Moon Sect’s Longyan Branch had to be avenged.

Even if he couldn’t kill Zou Zeyu and the Second Elder today, he was determined to prevent them from obtaining any blessings.

Hou Zhenxi leaped into the air, approaching Zou Zeyu and the others.

Before he even got close, he unleashed a palm strike towards them.

The powerful palm wind even distorted the void itself.

However, a sneer crept onto the Second Elder’s lips at this moment, he didn’t retreat but instead advanced.

He met Hou Zhenxi’s attack with a palm strike of his own.

The two palm forces collided in the void.

A chaotic gust of wind scattered outwards.

The two elders each retreated several dozen steps in the void.

At this moment, a hint of surprise flashed in Hou Zhenxi’s eyes.

In his mind, Heavenly Fiend Sect and the others should have joined him in attacking, right?

In his plan, the four of them against one shouldn’t have resulted in a stalemate with the Second Elder.

With this question in mind, he turned his head to look back, but discovered that the Ancestor of the Heavenly Fiend Sect and the others were already standing at the edge.

There was no sign of them fighting alongside him.
