129: Chapter 129 You dare use evil magic to disrupt my Holy Maiden's Dao heart!
"Giving one's all to help." That term is used so accurately.
In the side hall of the Immortal Palace, those Nine Heavens were more than just "giving one's all"; it was practically "emptying the whole treasury."
I have to say, although this Saintess of Taiyi was incredibly aloof at the beginning, her Comprehension Ability when learning new knowledge is simply astonishing.
Cao Kun felt secretly smug, but on the surface, he put on an unfathomable expression, nodded slightly, and sighed repeatedly:
"It's nothing, it's nothing. For the sake of Saintess Luo's path of Dao, it is only right for this Elder to exert some effort and shed some sweat."
Meng Yudie, standing to Cao Kun's left, rolled her eyes immediately upon hearing this. She curled her red lips slightly and spat internally.
"Pah, you little slut, you really know how to put on an act. Back then, you were drawing your sword and acting like you'd rather die outside the door; now that you've gained the advantage, you're acting coy, and you even dare to blurt out such lewd words in front of so many people."
Yun Xiyue, on the right, quickly turned her face away. Two blushes uncontrollably rose upon her ice-clear and jade-clean cheeks.
In mid-air, Chu Qianqiu stood with his hands behind his back. Having lived for over a thousand years, he was deep in thought, yet he could not hear the subtext in Luo Qingcheng's "giving one's all to help."
In his view, "giving one's all to help" naturally meant that Cao Kun, an outsider, had exerted some effort, but the core reason was definitely the decisive role played by his own Saintess's Innate Dao Body!
As for Cao Kun? A demonic Cultivator from the Hehuan Sect, what big help could he provide? It was probably just good luck, tagging along and benefiting from the Saintess!
His mind was now filled with the grand blueprint for the future of the Taiyi Dao Sect. In time, let alone dominating Qingzhou, even stepping into the wider world of cultivation might not be impossible!
As for those Disciples and Elders who died in the Secret Realm? Compared to a bright future, all of them added together were nothing more than insignificant numbers.
"Qingcheng!" Chu Qianqiu shouted, braving the pressure of the Lightning Tribulation.
"You have just glimpsed the threshold of Soul Transformation; the Lightning Tribulation is extremely dangerous. You must not forcefully break through here!"
"Immediately suppress your aura and seal your Dantian! Return to the Sect with me!"
"The Sect Master has long since issued a decree: if you encounter the Lightning Tribulation, you must activate the Sect's Taiyi Nine Heavens Lightning-Resisting Formation, supplemented by three top-grade defensive Spirit Treasures, to ensure you are foolproof! You must never undergo the tribulation here rashly!"
Luo Qingcheng certainly knew the terror of the Soul Transformation Lightning Tribulation. She immediately circulated the Origin power of her Innate Dao Body to suppress the surging spiritual power within her.
As Luo Qingcheng hid her aura, the thick tribulation clouds in the sky seemed to lose their target. The speed of their churning slowed significantly, and the silver lightning snakes weaving through the clouds dimmed slightly.
However, that destructive pressure still hung over everyone's heads. The Lightning Tribulation was only postponed, not disappeared. As long as Luo Qingcheng completely released her aura, the Nine Heavens Divine Lightning would still strike down without mercy.
With the crisis temporarily averted, Chu Qianqiu let out a long sigh of relief. "What are you still standing there for? Get on the carriage quickly!" Chu Qianqiu urged.
But Luo Qingcheng did not move. She stood in place, turned her head, and looked at Cao Kun beside her. In those eyes that had always looked down on everything, there was now a look filled with reluctance and attachment.
"I... I have to return to the Sect." She was currently at the stage of being infatuated and inseparable, yet they were forced to separate because of this damned Lightning Tribulation. She felt empty inside. Even looking at that old man, Chu Qianqiu, felt incredibly annoying.
Seeing Luo Qingcheng's aggrieved expression, Cao Kun felt a tickle in his heart. He completely ignored Chu Qianqiu in mid-air. Under the gaze of hundreds of eyes, he reached out and pinched Luo Qingcheng's fair and smooth cheek.
"Hiss—" A sound of gasping echoed across the snowfield. Everyone widened their eyes, unable to believe what they were seeing.
Was this still the high and mighty Saintess of Taiyi who never gave a good look to any male Cultivator in the world? That shy appearance! That docility, letting someone pinch her cheeks without daring to resist! That reluctant gaze! What on earth was going on!
"Go on." Cao Kun had a smile on his lips, his eyes gentle. "After you break through to Soul Transformation, remember to take out the Ruyi and study it well."
"I... I know." Hearing the word Ruyi, Luo Qingcheng was too shy to look into Cao Kun's eyes again. After whispering a reply, she flew towards Chu Qianqiu's flying carriage.
On the flying carriage, Chu Qianqiu's expression could no longer be described as ugly. It was iron-blue, it was black-purple! Watching Luo Qingcheng's shy and helpless young girl posture, even if he was slow, he realized something was wrong at this moment.
"You little beast! You killed my Sect's Elders, slaughtered my inner Sect elites!" "And you used Demonic Techniques to disturb the Dao Heart of my Taiyi Dao Sect's Saintess!" "I have recorded this debt!"
The killing intent in Chu Qianqiu's heart had climbed to its peak. He wished he could slap this little beast to death right now. However, he did not dare.
The oppressive tribulation clouds in the sky were still churning. As long as he made a move here, the traction of the Qi would inevitably trigger the Lightning Tribulation to descend early. Without sufficient preparation, the probability of forcefully undergoing the Soul Transformation Lightning Tribulation was negligible.
"I will let you live a few more days." "Once the Saintess successfully undergoes the tribulation, I will personally go to the Hehuan Sect!" "I want to see what reliance your Hehuan Sect has to dare to bully my Taiyi Dao Sect like this!"
Facing the death threat of a Soul Transformation expert, Cao Kun was not only unafraid but sneered. "Old thing, you don't need to come!" "When Qingcheng undergoes the tribulation, this Elder will personally take a trip to the Taiyi Dao Sect."
Once these words were spoken, everyone suspected that there was something wrong with their ears. Was this Devil Head crazy? He actually dared to visit on his own initiative? Did he really think those Soul Transformation Old Ancestors of the Taiyi Dao Sect who were in seclusion were made of mud?
Cao Kun didn't care what these people thought. He looked directly at Chu Qianqiu in mid-air and continued: "After all, I don't trust your Taiyi Dao Sect's Formation." "My person, I still have to watch over her myself to feel at ease."
Arrogant! Insolent! Right in front of a Soul Transformation Elder of the Taiyi Dao Sect, he directly declared sovereignty. Calling the Saintess of the Taiyi Dao Sect his person so blatantly. Such a thing, looking at the thousands of years of history in the entire Qingzhou cultivation world, was definitely the first time ever.
Chu Qianqiu was so angry that his vision went black, and he gritted his teeth. "Good! Very good!" "I will be waiting for your arrival at the Taiyi Dao Sect!" "As long as you dare to come, I guarantee you will not return!" After saying this, he directly drove the flying carriage and sped off towards the direction of the Taiyi Dao Sect. If he stayed any longer, Chu Qianqiu was really afraid that he would not be able to help himself from making a move.
That's it? The Cultivators on the snowfield looked at each other, unable to recover from the shock for a long time. The Taiyi Dao Sect had lost so many people, and even the Saintess's heart had been stolen away. That Elder Chu Qianqiu, who always acted domineeringly, actually just left a few harsh words and then slunk away like that?
Everyone's gaze gathered once again on that young demonic Cultivator standing in the wind and snow. In their eyes, besides awe, fear, and deep shock. This Devil Head not only had a great life, but his methods were also heaven-reaching!
After today, the name of Hehuan Sect Grand Elder Cao Kun will surely shake the entire Qingzhou! He not only slaughtered his way through the Taiyi Secret Realm, but also trained the high and mighty Saintess of Taiyi to be completely obedient. He even dared to openly challenge the Taiyi Dao Sect's Soul Transformation Old Ancestor, threatening to visit in person! Such a record, what arrogance. Unprecedented and unrepeatable!
Cao Kun ignored the awe-filled gazes around him. He turned to look at Yun Xiyue and Meng Yudie behind him. "Let's go, we're going back too." Cao Kun waved his large sleeve. An exquisite flying boat carved with pink Hehuan patterns appeared in mid-air. The three of them leaped onto the flying boat.
In the crowd, an elderly clan Elder looked at the direction where the flying boat disappeared and sighed long. "The sky over this Qingzhou is afraid it is going to change."
No one refuted. Originally, the Taiyi Dao Sect was the sole dominant force, suppressing all Sects and clans in Qingzhou until they couldn't breathe. But now, a Grand Elder of the Hehuan Sect had emerged from nowhere. Not only were his methods ruthless and his killing decisive, he even threatened to go to the Taiyi Dao Sect to protect the Dao personally!
Such behavior was tantamount to directly declaring war on the hegemon of Qingzhou! This scoundrel Cao... ah no, this Elder Cao. Who knows how much blood and carnage he will stir up in this cultivation world in the future, and how many ice-clear and jade-clean Fairies he will ruin!
Thinking of the beautiful female Disciples in their own Sects, many Sect Masters and Elders could not help but shiver. They secretly decided to quickly issue a confinement order after returning. They couldn't afford to offend him, simply couldn't afford to offend him!
