Chapter 348 Luo Lingxi departs! Teleportation activated, finally arriving at the Flame Sun Holy Land!
"Senior Burning Heaven, can you let us leave now?"
After handing that half-scroll of the Emperor's Scripture to Lin Mo, Luo Lingxi slowly turned back to face the Phoenix Phantom in the sky, her tone carrying a hint of testing the waters.
"Mm, you may."
"Go."
Huang Feiyan's voice was lazy and casual, as if she were merely dismissing two insignificant passersby, with no intention of making things difficult for them further.
"Thank you, Senior Burning Heaven."
Despite Huang Feiyan's nonchalant attitude, Luo Lingxi did not dare to show the slightest dissatisfaction.
After nodding slightly to Lin Mo once more, she turned and pulled the ashen-faced Shui Yunqing along. With a flicker of her figure, she vanished cleanly from the spot.
Her hurried manner suggested she feared that if she stayed even a second longer, Huang Feiyan might suddenly regret her decision and find an excuse to keep them there.
"Heh..."
"Alright, the nuisances are gone."
Seeing the two from Yaochi flee so quickly, a light chuckle drifted from the Phoenix Phantom.
"The rest of you should also get back to whatever you were doing!"
As her voice fell,
The Phoenix Phantom circling in mid-air, radiating endless Divine Might, transformed into specks of brilliant crimson light and slowly dissipated between heaven and earth.
“Whew!!”
Only after that terrifying powerhouse had completely departed did the Fierce Sword King, Lei Jingxiao, and the others—who had been acting as background characters, not even daring to breathe loudly—
Finally feel as if a thousand-pound burden had been lifted. They exhaled in unison, their entire bodies going limp.
It couldn't be helped.
The invisible pressure emanating from those two Saint Realm powerhouses just now was enough to suffocate small fries like them.
They didn't even have the courage to interject, fearing they might accidentally be shaken to death by the aftershocks of those masters.
"El... Elder Yang?!"
After recovering slightly, Lei Jingxiao immediately leaned toward the Fierce Sword King and asked in a low, terrified voice,
"Grand Supreme Fentian... has she really already...?!"
He swallowed hard, his eyes filled with deep shock.
Although Shui Yunqing's words earlier were practically a explicit statement, he still wanted a definitive answer from his own well-traveled Elder.
That First Grand Elder...
Had she truly stepped into the legendary—Quasi-Emperor Realm?!
However,
Faced with Lei Jingxiao's inquiry, the Fierce Sword King's expression instantly became incredibly grave.
"Shh...!"
He abruptly raised a finger in a silencing gesture and gave Lei Jingxiao a sharp glare.
"Jingxiao, watch your words!"
"This is not something for us to inquire about, nor is it something we are allowed to discuss!"
The Fierce Sword King lowered his voice, warning sternly,
"Grand Supreme Fentian did not personally admit to entering that Realm just now."
"So..."
"We shouldn't be making blind guesses here!"
"If any rumors get out or if we are exploited by those with hidden motives, the consequences will be more than we can bear!"
"Do you understand?"
This was a massive secret concerning the Holy Land's foundation and future!
Such matters can only be understood intuitively, not spoken of aloud!
Why was a youngster so full of curiosity?
Be careful, for trouble comes from the mouth!
"Uh..."
Seeing the Fierce Sword King's state of high alert, Lei Jingxiao was no fool and naturally understood the implication.
He pulled his neck in and hurriedly shut his mouth, not daring to ask another word.
After all...
Who knew if that Grand Supreme Fentian with her sky-reaching power was still secretly watching them from some corner?
If she heard him, he might just receive a sound thrashing!
However...
Though he didn't dare discuss that powerhouse further, when Lei Jingxiao turned his gaze toward Lin Mo,
The original fear on his face was immediately replaced by an undisguised envy!
"Brother Lin!!"
"What did I tell you?!"
"You've truly struck it big this time!"
Lei Jingxiao rushed to Lin Mo in a few steps, slinging an arm around his shoulder and patting him vigorously with great enthusiasm.
"Not only have you become the Personal Disciple of the Grand Supreme Fentian, but even the position of Saint has been reserved for you!"
*Tsk tsk tsk...*
"This treatment is practically reaching the heavens!"
"If you become the Holy Lord in the future, you absolutely must not forget about your brother here!"
Regarding Lin Mo's earlier near-choice to join the Yaochi Holy Land, Lei Jingxiao showed no dissatisfaction or grudge.
After all, he was a sensible person.
Which power to join was entirely Lin Mo's freedom and his right.
Moreover...
Truth be told, the conditions Yaochi Holy Land offered just now were simply too tempting!
One could even call them insane!
Even as an outsider, he felt his heart stir upon hearing them; there was nothing to criticize.
Reasonably speaking,
If he were in Lin Mo's position, and if the Yanyang Holy Land side didn't have a powerhouse like Huang Feiyan personally raising the stakes,
For the sake of his own future, he would also have chosen to join the Yaochi Holy Land without hesitation!
It was only human nature and beyond reproach.
"Sigh, Brother Lei, stop teasing me."
Facing Lei Jingxiao's banter, Lin Mo gave a wry smile and shook his head.
"Being able to study under Senior Burning Heaven is naturally my good fortune and a massive Opportunity."
"But..."
"It is also a heavy pressure!"
Lin Mo sighed, his tone tinged with a bit of helplessness.
While it was great to have a powerful backer, this backer's temper...
Didn't seem like the easy-going type at all!
"Mm... that's true."
Lei Jingxiao nodded in deep agreement, his smile fading slightly as he showed a look of sympathy.
The temperament of that Burning Heaven Holy Venerable...
After that display just now, he could be said to have a slight understanding of it.
It was absolutely overbearing to the extreme!
If someone really made her unhappy...
Even a Personal Disciple would probably be hung up and beaten, right?
And being hung up and beaten by a Quasi-Emperor...
Just visualizing that scene made Lei Jingxiao's scalp tingle and his whole body ache!
"Ahem, alright."
"Enough small talk, let's continue our journey!"
Just then, the Fierce Sword King spoke up, interrupting their conversation.
Although the people from Yaochi had been scared off, the lingering sense of unease in his heart had not dissipated.
To avoid any further complications, he had to deliver Lin Mo safely to the Yanyang Holy Land immediately!
Only once they were inside the Holy Land's gates could his hanging heart finally settle!
Thinking of this, the Fierce Sword King's figure flickered, and he vanished from the spot, heading outside.
When Shui Yunqing descended earlier,
To prevent the commotion here from being observed by too many idle people,
She had simply waved her hand and moved the group of Formation Masters responsible for maintaining the teleportation array to some unknown corner.
Now, to continue using the teleportation array, he had to find those unlucky fellows first.
The Fierce Sword King moved quickly.
Before long, he returned to the plaza with the group of bewildered Formation Masters who still hadn't figured out what was happening.
"Don't just stand there!"
"Quickly activate the Cross-Domain Teleportation Array!"
"We need to leave immediately!"
With the Fierce Sword King's authoritative shout, how could those Formation Masters dare to delay?
One by one, they rushed back to their posts, frantically beginning to recalibrate the Formation.
Buzz!
The spatial Formation lines lit up once again.
This time, no more accidents occurred.
The teleportation array was successfully activated, and a majestic spatial force immediately enveloped everyone in the center of the plaza!
Following that, a blinding white light burst forth!
Swish!
Lin Mo and the others' figures instantly crossed the endless Void Realm, heading straight for the Yanyang Holy Land!
