542: Chapter 542 If it's a trap, then let's fight it!

A moment later, an old man dressed in blue robes entered the Council Hall.

The blue-robed old man looked around, and his gaze fell upon Su Yun.

His originally nonchalant expression became serious, and he spoke in a respectful tone:

"Greetings, Taixuan Holy Master! I am the Yimu Valley Elder, Immortal Master Shuangmu."

"Immortal Master Shuangmu, for what business have you come to our Holy Land?

The matter of your Yimu Valley Elders attacking our Taixuan Holy Land...

I haven't even settled that score with Yimu Valley yet!"

Su Yun said indifferently.

At this point in time,

Yimu Valley had suddenly sent someone.

Could they be here to declare war?

Wait, that's not right.

There was no need to send an Elder just to declare war.

Wouldn't it be simpler to just attack directly?

Furthermore, the attitude of this Yimu Valley Elder was a bit strange!

Hearing this, Immortal Master Shuangmu hurriedly cupped his hands:

"Taixuan Holy Master, I have come this time on behalf of Yimu Valley to convey our apologies for the events of a few days ago.

Also, our Valley Master wishes to apologize to you in person.

He invites you to be a guest at our Yimu Valley."

"Oh?"

A flicker of surprise flashed in Su Yun's eyes.

They actually came to apologize?

And even invited him to be a guest?

Could this be a trap?

It was possible.

However, it was also possible that they truly intended to offer reparations and apologies to the Taixuan Holy Land.

This was getting interesting.

Despite being a Hidden Sect, why was Yimu Valley taking this stance?

Could there really be internal strife within Yimu Valley?

"We accept Yimu Valley's apology.

If nothing else, at the very least, your Yimu Valley must compensate our Holy Land for its losses!"

"Taixuan Holy Master, that is only right. Our Yimu Valley will provide full compensation for the losses of the Taixuan Holy Land!"

Immortal Master Shuangmu nodded slightly.

He had originally thought that the Elders who went to the Great Profound Domain to investigate had exaggerated.

But seeing him now...

It was simply too terrifying.

The Taixuan Holy Master's strength was perhaps even more fearsome than he had imagined.

"As for the matter of visiting Yimu Valley as a guest...

Since your Valley Master has invited me, there is no harm in me making a trip."

Su Yun continued.

If it was a trap,

then they would just fight!

Who was afraid of whom?

He would give them a surprise.

Now that he possessed high-stage Mahayana strength, he no longer needed to be cautious and restrained.

Coupled with his many trump cards,

unless it was an Immortal,

even if he couldn't win, he could still make a clean getaway.

Furthermore, if he didn't go,

it wouldn't matter much to him personally,

but the reputation of the Taixuan Holy Land would suffer.

Others would think the Taixuan Holy Land was cowardly.

Having defeated the Yimu Valley Elders,

yet not daring to set foot in Yimu Valley.

In any case, the Taixuan Holy Land was now a power completely under his control.

The better it developed,

the more beneficial it would be for him.

It was better to go.

"Holy Master, this absolutely cannot be!

This journey is perilous. What if it's a trap?"

"Indeed, it would be better to deliberate further!"

"Holy Master, please reconsider!"

"Holy Master, you don't have to go in person. Wouldn't it suffice to send us to represent you?"

...

The group of Elders spoke up with worry.

"Elders, there is no need to worry. I know what I'm doing!

Elder Liu, Elder Miaomiao, Elder Cuihuo, the three of you shall come with me."

Su Yun waved his hand and spoke directly.

"We obey the Holy Master's command!"

Though the Elders were still somewhat worried, seeing Su Yun's certain expression,

they could only give up their persuasion.

Because they knew the Holy Master usually acted very prudently.

Since he was confident,

there surely wouldn't be a problem.

Besides, the Holy Master's strength was sufficiently great.

So what was there to fear?

"Let's go. Where is your Yimu Valley?"

With a flash, Su Yun brought the three Elders to Immortal Master Shuangmu's side.

"Our Yimu Valley is in the northern part of the Central Domain..."

Immortal Master Shuangmu was slightly stunned, then immediately gave the coordinates.

"Then let's go!"

Su Yun took a step forward and vanished from the spot.

Vanishing along with him were Immortal Master Shuangmu and the three Taixuan Elders.

Feeling the constant shifting of the surrounding space,

Immortal Master Shuangmu became even more shocked.

What kind of strength was this?

It was too terrifying!

He had actually been taken along in a teleportation without even noticing it.

One must know that he was at the Middle Stage Mahayana cultivation level.

What if this were in a battle?

Wouldn't he be able to be displaced at will?

Wouldn't that mean he had no power to resist before the Taixuan Holy Master?

At this thought, Immortal Master Shuangmu broke out in a cold sweat.

After several waves of spatial fluctuations,

the group arrived directly within a dense forest.

"Is that Yimu Valley?"

Su Yun looked around and finally gazed in a certain direction.

He saw countless giant trees in the vicinity,

towering into the clouds

and blotting out the sun.

Within the forest were various ancient trees thousands or even tens of thousands of years old.

Deep in the forest, a massive valley was surrounded.

Countless Restrictions were hidden upon the giant trees near the valley,

emitting a heart-palpitating aura

that blocked Cultivators from approaching.

"Yes, that is our Yimu Valley.

Taixuan Holy Master, please follow me!"

Immortal Master Shuangmu directly led the way.

Immediately, the giant trees outside Yimu Valley seemed to come to life.

Bursts of green light instantly bloomed.

Rumble rumble rumble rumble rumble.

The ground began to vibrate slightly.

Countless giant trees pulled back to both sides,

quickly opening up a passage.

Following that, the massive valley suddenly erupted with a dazzling spiritual light.

Several streaks of light flew out from within.

Flying at the front was a white-robed old man, followed by several green-robed old men.

"Holy Master Su, I have heard much of your great name. I am the Valley Master of Yimu Valley, Zhang Huai."

Upon seeing Su Yun, Zhang Huai spoke with great warmth.

"Valley Master Zhang, greetings."

Su Yun nodded and replied with pleasantries.

At this moment, he did not sense a single shred of killing intent or hostility from Zhang Huai or the other Yimu Valley Elders.

Previously, Su Yun had gained a slight understanding of the Law of Slaughter through a small fragment of a slaughter immortal bone.

Therefore, his perception of killing intent or hostility had become extremely sharp.

Even if there were hidden killing intent directed at him, he would be able to detect it.

But now, he felt none at all.

If his perception wasn't mistaken,

this might not be a trap after all.

They truly just wanted to invite him to Yimu Valley as a guest

and apologize in the process.

"Holy Master Su, the matter regarding Shen Cangbai was the fault of our Yimu Valley.

We are truly sorry!

We have caused trouble for your Holy Land!

Whatever compensation you desire, our Yimu Valley will agree to it!"

"By the way, Holy Master Su, please enter the valley with me first!

Our Yimu Valley has already prepared a banquet.

We can discuss this matter in detail during the feast!"

Zhang Huai said with a face full of apology.

Su Yun nodded slightly: "Very well."

Then, Zhang Huai turned around to lead the way.

Su Yun followed directly with the three Taixuan Elders.

Passing through the Restrictions between the giant trees,

they crossed a spatial barrier and entered the Small World where Yimu Valley was located.

But just then, Su Yun suddenly noticed something.

Inside his Storage Ring,

something that had been sitting there for a long time suddenly gave a violent tremor.

Immediately, Su Yun hurriedly released his Divine Sense to check the Storage Ring.
