Chapter 1269 - Jiu Zhuan Qu Nest (2)

At the peak of Hidden Sword Mountain, Xi Yi, Wei Xuan Pavilion, Meng Xingshu and the other elders of the seven sects were standing at the entrance of Heavenly Sword Hall.

In front of them, there were over ten cultivators. They were either old men with white hair and beards, old women with white hair, handsome and refined middle-aged men, or tall and sturdy young men … Although their appearances were all different, the auras radiating from their bodies were extremely tyrannical.

These people were all experts at the peak of the Nine Revolutions Transcendental Tower. Some were the sect leaders, while others were the leaders of their clans.

"Master Xi, have you made your decision?"

A voice suddenly sounded.

The white robed old man who spoke was actually the "Ling Xiao Sword Sect" Sect Leader, Jiang He Xian. He looked indifferent, but there was a hint of arrogance between his brows.

When Xi Yi, Wei Xuan Pavilion and the rest heard this, they remained silent, but their expressions turned uglier and uglier.

As their gazes crossed each other, they were filled with unconcealable regret.

Not long after the great battle had ended, Tang Huan had left for the Firing Dragon Mountain Range, while the few strongest people of the 'Pure Yang Sword Sect' had stayed behind to guard the Yan Yang City.

Later on, the various Void Transformation Stage cultivators came over and they did their best to receive him.

Even when the esteemed elders of the "Nine Star Saint Sect" gathered many Void Transformation Stage cultivators, they would still support Li Yin. After all, Li Yin was extremely strong and Tang Huan did not know when he would return. Under the threat of Heaven's Will City, having a leader could also increase the cohesion and combat strength of their side.

But what they didn't expect was that not too long after, the foreign cultivators began to make various requests.

Initially, for the greater good of the situation, Xi Yi and the seven Great Elders had tried their best to be satisfied. However, those foreign cultivators were getting more and more out of hand. Xi Yi's group had limited strength, and did not want to alarm Tang Huan, so they could only turn a blind eye to the situation. Originally, they thought that as long as they could protect Heavenly Sword Hall, they would be free of worries.

However, not long ago, Xi Yi suddenly discovered that the sword intent had actually been suppressed by something.

Xi Yi immediately realized that the situation wasn't looking good. Indeed, it hadn't even been two hours before Jiang He and the rest came knocking on his door, demanding that they give up Heavenly Sword Hall.

Xi Yi understood in his heart that regardless of whether it was the invasion of Hidden Sword Mountain by foreign cultivators previously, or the current coercion of Jiang He Xian and the others, they were all at the command of Li Yin, the "Nine Star Holy Gate".

But now that his sword intent had been suppressed, it was too late for regret.

Brother Xi, in this current situation, it is useless for all of you to guard this Heavenly Sword Hall. Why not give it up?

Another voice sounded.

The one who spoke was an old lady, her tone was gentle, as if she was thinking for the "Pure Yang Sword Sect", but her tone was full of threat.

She was the sect head of the "Ru Yi Sect", Gong Jing.

"Xi Yi, our patience is limited. Even if you don't want to, you have to give way to Heavenly Sword Hall today!"

Immediately after, another raspy voice sounded. This time, it was the tall and sturdy man who spoke, his bell-like eyes filled with disdain.

He was the Lord of the Southwest Devil Region, Mo Qianjiang, a Demonified.

"Everyone, this old man will definitely not allow this Heavenly Sword Hall to leave!"

Xi Yi's face turned ashen. Taking a deep breath, his gaze swept across Jiang He Xian, Gong Jing and the rest as he gritted his teeth and spoke, word for word, "If you want to enter Heavenly Sword Hall, you should first kill this old man and the rest. However, all of you must consider whether or not you can bear the consequences! "

When they heard Xi Yi's words, the expressions of Jiang He Xian, Gong Jing, and Mo Qianjiang all changed slightly.

Of course they had heard the implied meaning behind his words.

Any one of them would be able to easily kill off Xi Yi and the others. However, besides Xi Yi and the rest, the "Pure Yang Sword Sect" would also have the "Sword Sovereign" Tang Huan!

Before the invasion of Heaven's Will City, Tang Huan was already an existence which caused everyone's expressions to change, and this was even more so after the invasion of Heaven's Will City.

It was obvious how much strength Tang Huan had. Especially after the great battle with Heavenly Will City a few months ago, the number of puppets Tang Huan had must have possessed must have increased exponentially. What was even more terrifying was that the puppet even included a Spirit Stage powerhouse.

If they were to become enemies with Tang Huan, Tang Huan only needed to send out that Nascent Soul Puppet and they would be annihilated with a single word.

If they were to force Xi Yi and the others to hand over Heavenly Sword Hall, then it could be said that they would be ordered to do so by Alliance Master Li Yin. However, if they were to kill Xi Yi and the others, then the conflict between them and Tang Huan would only end with death.

"Well said!"

Just as Jiang He Xian and the rest were hesitating, a stern shout suddenly burst out. "Since you don't want Heavenly Sword Hall to go, then go to hell!"

Almost at the same instant as his voice rang out, a figure shot out explosively from behind Jiang He Xian. A resplendent and dazzling golden light pierced through the air like a meteor, piercing towards Xi Yi with a mind-boggling speed. Terrifying sharpness instantly spread outwards, and the area within a radius of ten meters around it seemed to have become filled with thousands of holes.

The person who suddenly attacked was a middle-aged man. He wore a black robe and his body was as thin as a bamboo pole. A sinister killing intent hung from his face.

He was the sect head of the Great World's northern Youzhou 'Arclight Sect', Zhu Xuantong.

"Brother Xuan, stop!"

"Sect Leader Zhu, don't be rash!"

"Zhu Xuantong, have you gone mad?"

"..."

Upon seeing Zhu Xuantong's actions, the expressions of Jiang He Xian, Gong Jing, and Mo Qianjiang all changed drastically.

Although this person was powerful, he had never revealed himself to anyone ever since he came to Yan Yang City. This time around, Alliance Master Li Yan had sent him along with Jiang He Xian and the others. After arriving at the place, he acted as if he was an outsider and did not say a word.

Judging from the momentum behind Zhu Xuan Tong's attack, it was obvious that he had used his full strength.

Even though Xi Yi was also the head of a sect, his strength was worlds apart from Zhu Xuantong's. It was absolutely impossible for him to block Zhu Xuantong's full-power attack. Moreover, Zhu Xuantong's attack this time was too sudden. Jiang He Xian, Gong Jing, and Mo Qianjiang didn't have enough time to save him.

"Master!"

The expressions of Wei Xuan Pavilion, Meng Xing Chun and the rest changed. Now that they were talking about Pure Yang Sword Sect, their biggest reliance was no longer the terrifying sword intent of the Heavenly Sword Hall, but rather Tang Huan. In their minds, as long as Tang Huan was still alive, Jiang He Xian and the rest would definitely not dare to kill him.

However, they never expected that someone would actually make a move!

"You're courting death!"

Right when everyone thought that Xi Yi was undoubtedly going to die, an enraged roar suddenly exploded in the air, and right after, a figure flashed and appeared in front of Xi Yi, seemingly out of thin air.
