Battle Through the Heavens: Taking advantage of Xun'er's naivety, trick her into becoming

Chapter 38 A Grand Display!

Yunlan Sect.

The long mountain road is shrouded in mist, and above the mist is a huge square, paved entirely with huge stones, which looks ancient and grand.

Looking around the square, there were thousands of people sitting cross-legged there.

These people sat in a semi-circle, all dressed in moon-white robes. At their cuffs, cloud-shaped longswords fluttered in the wind, seemingly alive, faintly imbued with a hint of sword intent.

At the top of the square, towering stone steps lead up to a platform, with each step gradually ascending, generally indicating increasing strength. The highest platform is currently empty, with no one sitting there. Below it, a dozen or so white-robed elders sit cross-legged, their eyes closed in meditation.

Although there were nearly a thousand people in the square, it was completely silent, with no sound except for the howling wind.

Occasionally, a slightly stronger gust of wind swept across the square, and suddenly, white robes fluttered everywhere, as if clouds were descending from the sky.

Such a sight is quite breathtaking at first glance.

Sometimes, a whooshing sound would suddenly ring out in mid-air, and then figures would appear on the towering treetops. Looking around, it became clear that there were quite a few figures standing on the tops of some giant trees around the plaza. Not only was Fa Ma, the president of the Alchemist Guild, there, but even Jia Xingtian, the patriarch of the Jia Ma Empire, had come.

In the capital, the heads and younger generations of some of the top families also came.

This shows just how enormous the impact of today's events is!

Almost all the prominent figures in the entire Gama Empire have arrived here!

"Dan Wang Guhe is a peerless sixth-grade alchemist. I really don't know what reason this young master of the Yunlan Sect has to dare to challenge Dan Wang Guhe!"

"Perhaps the two have some personal grudges. The young sect leader is young and impetuous, and it's inevitable that he will act impulsively."

"In my opinion, the reason why Danwang Guhe accepted this young sect master's challenge so formally is mostly because of Sect Master Yun's reputation."

"Alas! Youthful vigor is certainly admirable, but without ability, one will only become a laughingstock!"

Many bigwigs in the capital were whispering among themselves.

They came here, of course, not to witness a top-level competition.

It's simply to give face to Dan Wang Guhe and to give face to Yunlan Sect!

After all, no one would believe that a teenager could challenge a sixth-grade alchemist.

This is a fairy tale; there aren't that many daydreams for you to indulge in.

"Greetings, King Dan!"

Many alchemists suddenly stood up and bowed respectfully to the platform.

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound.

A man in a green robe flew out of the palace.

His expression was calm, but his gaze seemed to intentionally or unintentionally sweep across the top stone platform, as if checking whether Yun Yun was present.

When he saw the stone platform empty in the air, a barely perceptible hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes.

Arriving at his secluded spot beside the high platform, he bowed slightly to the crowd before calmly sitting down and waiting for the arrival of the young sect master of the Yunlan Sect.

He wasn't very interested in this battle.

I just wanted to see Yunyun and talk to her.

Unfortunately, she hasn't arrived yet.

……

The sun was blazing overhead.

Time passed slowly, and several hours later...

Yun Yun and Xiao Bai still did not appear before everyone.

This inevitably drew dissatisfaction from many people.

"Young Master of the Yunlan Sect! You have quite the nerve, making us wait this long and still haven't shown up!"

"Are we still going to compete after he's fallen? Why hasn't the young sect leader arrived yet?!"

"The sect leader and the young sect leader have been missing for several days now, and they haven't arrived yet. Could it be that something has happened that has delayed them?"

"What rubbish! In my opinion, he's just afraid of losing face, so he doesn't dare to come out."

Although the crowd's discussions were not loud, Gu He, a peak Dou Wang, could hear them clearly.

Even with his exceptional patience, he couldn't help but furrow his brow at this moment.

If it weren't for Yun Yun's sake, he would have already stormed off.

Yun Leng snorted coldly, displeased, "This boy is far too reckless and rude. He acted impulsively and wanted to challenge the Pill King, but now he's too afraid to show himself. He has no sense of responsibility whatsoever!"

These words immediately won the approval of many elders.

Because they had been waiting for several hours!

Anger had been building up inside him for some time.

"In my opinion, let's put this farce to rest!"

Yun Leng slowly stood up and said in a cold voice.

If this matter is simply concluded so hastily, when Xiao Bai returns to the sect, an elders' meeting will surely be convened to impeach and remove Xiao Bai from his position as the young sect leader!

They could even throw a bucket of dirty water at Yunyun!

"Alright! Let's call it a day!"

Some people shook their heads slightly, sounding somewhat impatient.

Anyone would be angry if they waited for several hours in vain.

With someone taking the lead, everyone in the room stood up, preparing to leave.

"Let's wait a little longer!"

Gu He suddenly spoke up. Although he didn't trust Xiao Bai, he did trust Yun Yun.

Even if Xiao Bai really doesn't dare to come, Yun Yun will definitely come.

Upon hearing Gu He's words, everyone stopped, exchanged glances, and returned to their original positions.

Yun Ling's gaze turned slightly cold, but he didn't say anything.

After all, offending a sixth-grade alchemist over this matter is not worth it.

Another hour passed.

One by one, people have made excuses to leave.

Because I simply couldn't wait any longer.

Moreover, nobody knows when this will end.

Even Gu He's face was extremely gloomy at this moment.

He actually got stood up by a little kid!

Just then, a loud roar suddenly rang out in the distant sky.

"Oh no! A royal-level magical beast is trying to attack the mountain!"

A disciple of the Yunlan Sect exclaimed in alarm.

In the sky not far away, you could see...

Purple flames rose into the sky, like a vast sea of ​​fire, burning away the void and melting the heavens.

A colossal, aura-filled amethyst winged lion king emerged from the sea of ​​fire, riding the clouds and mist.

This terrifying aura truly frightened many people.

"Prepare to activate the sect-protecting formation!"

Yun Leng suddenly stood up, let out a low roar, and prepared to call on everyone to form a battle formation to defend against the enemy!

But an elder nearby exclaimed in surprise, "Wait! There seems to be someone on the back of that Amethyst Winged Lion King!"

These words were spoken.

The entire audience was immediately thrown into an uproar.

Someone actually managed to control this Amethyst Winged Lion King, which is at the Douhuang level!

This is unheard of!

This person's strength must be beyond everyone's imagination!

Just as everyone was on high alert, from the watchtower not far away, Long Aotian exclaimed in surprise, "It's Sect Master Yun and Xiao Bai!"

"What?!"

Upon hearing this, Yun Leng's pupils contracted, and he looked incredulously at the figure on the back of the Amethyst Winged Lion King.

Upon seeing the figure's face clearly, they were instantly horrified.

"It really was the two of them!"

At this moment, the entire Yunlan Sect was in an uproar!

No one in history has ever had such a grand display of power, riding a Douhuang-level magical beast!
