A great war broke out, and he returned to his sect.
Fairy Yue Xuan's gaze toward Chen Yuan held less resentment.
Chen Gong was dumbfounded; they had not expected Chen Yuan to jump out at this moment, and with a few words, he had directly dumped all the blame onto Qin Shi and the Kunxu Holy Land. It was so airtight that it was difficult to refute!
"You... you are talking nonsense! How could Qi Wenhai's sword be in your hands?!" Chen Gong pointed at Chen Yuan in exasperation.
Daoist Ming Xuan's face turned pale instantly!
The content of the memory stone linked perfectly with the logic of Chen Yuan's narrative.
"Ming! Xuan! Old! Thief!" All of Fairy Yue Xuan's rage and grief were now completely locked onto the Kunxu Holy Land. Her voice was ice-cold and bone-chilling, "Do you have anything else to say?!"
Daoist Ming Xuan's face was ashen, his lips trembling. Looking at the memory stone and the sword, he knew that the Kunxu Holy Land this time... could not wash itself clean even if it jumped into the Yellow River!
Seeing that Daoist Ming Xuan was speechless, the grief, anger, and murderous intent that had accumulated in Fairy Yue Xuan's heart could no longer be suppressed!
"Old thief Ming Xuan! Pay with your life—!"
She let out a shrill, desperate shriek, and the moonlight surrounding her body instantly became ice-cold and piercing, as if it could freeze the Soul!
A jade ruler, entirely translucent white and wreathed in the power of Taiyin, appeared in her hand. Carrying the might to destroy heaven and earth, it tore through the sea of clouds and struck directly at Daoist Ming Xuan's face!
This blow was struck in anger, with no reservations!
"Yue Xuan! You are crazy!" Daoist Ming Xuan was both shocked and furious. He did not expect the other party to dare to attack directly in the Source Flow Sea of Clouds, in front of everyone!
In his haste, he sacrificed a mysterious black beast banner. As the banner surface surged, it seemed as if powerful Yao Beasts were roaring, meeting the Taiyin jade ruler.
"BOOM—!!!"
The full-force collision of two Body Integration Perfection powerhouses was like stars colliding! A terrifying shockwave exploded instantly, as if a destructive sun had risen above the Source Flow Sea of Clouds.
"Protect the Disciples!"
"Retreat quickly!"
The leading Elders of other factions changed color drastically and moved one after another to protect their own Sect members.
"Kunxu Holy Land, pay for the lives of my Guanghan Immortal Palace Disciples!"
Fairy Yue Xuan acted as if she were mad. The Taiyin jade ruler transformed into thousands of moon wheels, like a cold rain of death, covering the sky and smashing towards the floating island where the Kunxu Holy Land was located.
She had led the team this time; with this result, how could she explain it to the Sect Master upon returning?
So how could she not be angry?!
Daoist Ming Xuan was also provoked into true fire, knowing that this matter could not end well, and roared:
"Form the array! Meet the enemy!"
Although the Kunxu Holy Land Disciples were panicked, under the command of the Elders, they quickly formed an array. Daoist spiritual light soared into the sky, linking with the black beast banner to resist the invasion of the moonlight.
The floating islands of the two top-tier factions instantly turned into a tragic battlefield!
The light of Spells, the sound of Magic Treasures colliding, the roar of energy, and the screams of Disciples from both sides before death intertwined, turning this peaceful sea of clouds into an Asura killing field!
On the Xuantian Sect flying boat, Sect Master Song Yuanji made a prompt decision: "This place is not suitable for staying long! Retreat quickly!"
The flying boat's Formation was fully activated, turning into a stream of light, and without hesitation, it sped away from the direction of the battlefield.
Luo Feng, Qin Shuhan, and the others looked at the earth-shattering battle behind them with complex expressions.
The giant sword flying boat of the Nine Heavens Sword Pavilion let out a sword cry, tore through space, and fled instantly.
The golden lotus platform of the Thunder Sound Temple shone with Buddha light, and also no longer lingered, slowly sinking into the depths of the sea of clouds and disappearing.
Those small and medium-sized Sects and Loose Cultivators were even more frightened out of their wits, scattering like birds and beasts, desperately urging their Magical Artifacts to flee this place of right and wrong.
In the blink of an eye, the originally bustling Source Flow Sea of Clouds was left with only the two major Sects, the Kunxu Holy Land and the Guanghan Immortal Palace, fighting to the death, as well as some unlucky Cultivators who could not escape in time and were struggling in the aftermath of the energy.
Chen Yuan stood at the edge of the Xuantian Sect flying boat's deck, looking far away at the increasingly distant battlefield, with a faint smile on his lips.
Shen Nianchu smacked her lips: "Tsk tsk, the battle of the Body Integration Stage is really scary."
The Xuantian Sect's flying boat soon disappeared into the vast sea of clouds.
Several days later, the Xuantian Sect flying boat passed through the Sect-protecting Formation and landed steadily on the main peak square.
The Sect high-level officials who had received the message long ago had already gathered in the main Sect hall.
Sect Master Song Yuanji led Luo Feng, Su Muyun, Qin Shuhan, and other Personal Disciples who had returned from the Secret Realm and walked quickly into the hall.
Chen Yuan, Ye Baixi, Lin Xue, and others also followed in the procession.
The Revered Masters of each peak were already seated on both sides of the hall, and below them were a group of inner Sect Elders.
"Sect Master." As soon as Sect Master Song Yuanji entered the hall, the other peak Revered Masters and Elders all stood up and saluted.
Song Yuanji nodded slightly and sat back in the head seat.
Subsequently, he explained that the Body Integration Legacy of the Secret Realm had been obtained by an unknown force, the five major top-tier factions had returned empty-handed, and finally, the fierce conflict that erupted between the Kunxu Holy Land and the Guanghan Immortal Palace due to the heavy casualties of their Disciples, leading to a big fight on the Source Flow Sea of Clouds.
The atmosphere in the hall was heavy.
Although it was regrettable that the Secret Realm Legacy had fallen elsewhere, the infighting between the other two top-tier factions was undoubtedly even bigger news.
Afterwards, Luo Feng, as the Disciple leader, added some details inside the Secret Realm.
When reporting on how the Guanghan Immortal Palace initially wanted to capture Chen Yuan, and later how the contradiction pointed to the Kunxu Holy Land, many gazes fell on Chen Yuan.
Song Yuanji looked at Chen Yuan, his tone peaceful: "Chen Yuan, explain in detail what you experienced to the peak Revered Masters and Elders."
Chen Yuan stood out as requested. Facing the gazes of the many peak Revered Masters, he remained calm and stated those words again.
After listening to Chen Yuan's statement, the hall was silent.
The peak Revered Masters and Elders had different expressions, pondering.
"This matter is of great importance. The dispute between Kunxu and Guanghan has already begun. Our Xuantian Sect needs to respond cautiously and observe the changes. You have worked hard on this trip. Go down and rest well first. The Sect will make its own decisions on subsequent matters."
After the Sect meeting ended, everyone returned to their respective peaks.
Chen Yuan had just returned to his residence when he received a voice transmission from his Revered Master.
The night was deep, and only a few dim spirit lamps were lit in the hall, making Leng Youmeng's figure appear even more hazy and aloof.
"Greetings, Revered Master!" Chen Yuan first saluted Leng Youmeng, then walked to her in two or three steps, burying his head in her bosom, and said aggrievedly: "Revered Master, I almost thought I would never see you again."
"It's okay, it's okay."
Chen Yuan got up and started to undress.
Leng Youmeng's face turned red, and she said shyly: "Why do you want to do this as soon as you get back?"
As soon as the words fell, Chen Yuan's mouth blocked hers.
When their lips parted, Leng Youmeng pushed his chest.
"Go to the bedroom."
"No need, this place is quite good."
"Here?" Leng Youmeng pursed her lips. In this main hall, on her throne? Her face became even redder.
...
Two hours later, the battle ended.
