189: Know the truth

【 Meanwhile — — 】

【 On the ground in the distance, Meaty, at the Foundation Establishment Stage, clenched her fists tightly, her knuckles turning white. 】

【 Because her cultivation was too low to join the battle, she could only watch helplessly as her Revered Master struggled alone, hating herself in her heart for growing too slowly. 】

【 Elsewhere — — 】

【 In mid-air, Nangong Xueyu and True Man Ziyang were battling Fairy Zhiyun and Vast Emptiness Master. Both sides were Golden Core Cultivators, and for a moment, it was hard to tell who had the upper hand. 】

【 However, among the three battlefields, theirs was the only one that held an advantage. 】

【 And in the third battle group — — 】

【 Although Ji Yunfeng's Nascent Soul was only an inch tall, it was exceptionally agile. Its infant fire transformed into threads filling the sky, surrounding Sect Master Lin Haotian heavily. 】

【 "Junior, I originally intended to perform Possession on that Peak Master Wuji, but I didn't expect you to have hidden your Nascent Soul cultivation... I have decided that this Physical Body will be mine!" Ji Yunfeng said with a shrill laugh. 】

【 Although Sect Master Lin Haotian had revealed the strength of an Early Nascent Soul Stage, he was still suppressed by his opponent. He roared angrily: "Old scoundrel! Are you not afraid that my Lin Family and the Heavenly Sword Sect will hunt you to the ends of the earth?!" 】

【 "Hahaha!" Ji Yunfeng's Nascent Soul let out a harsh, wild laugh, "Have you forgotten that the Liu Clan Immortal Family stands behind me!" 】

【 Hearing this, Sect Master Lin Haotian's face darkened. 】

【 How could he not know the power of the Liu Clan Immortal Family? If he truly angered such a faction, his Family would not only fail to avenge him, but might even sacrifice him to calm the situation — — 】

【 This was the bloody Law of survival in the cultivation world. 】

【 Suddenly, a relaxed voice covered the entire battlefield: 】

【 "Yo, quite lively here, aren't you?" 】

【 You approached as a stream of light, smiling as you scanned everyone. 】

【 Seeing you appear, Ji Yunfeng was stunned at first, then overjoyed, and shouted loudly: "Fellow Daoist, help me take down this kid, and afterwards I will introduce you to the Grand Elder of the Liu Clan Immortal Family!" 】

【 You were currently disguised as an old man, and with Ji Yunfeng's current strength, he naturally could not see through your disguise. 】

【 Ji Yunfeng's words made the people of Ziyang Star's faces darken — — the thing they feared most had finally happened. 】

【 Just at this moment, Meaty gritted her teeth, her eyes reddening, and flew up on her sword, spreading her arms to block you with her thin, small body. 】

【 "If you want to help him, kill me first!" Her reddened eyes stared fixedly at you. 】

【 You felt a lump in your throat at Meaty's act of trying to stop a chariot with her arms. 】

【 At this time, Hu Yanfeng shouted to you: "Fellow Daoist! I am the Grand Elder of the Piaomiao Sect. If you help me capture these people, the Piaomiao Sect will surely reward you heavily!" 】

【 Ji Yunfeng's Nascent Soul also shrilly urged: "Fellow Daoist! Ignore that little girl, come and help me quickly!" 】

【 The corners of your mouth curled up slightly, and you replied in a clear voice: "Alright!" 】

【 Before the words had even faded, the light evasion boots at your feet bloomed with brilliant starlight — — your figure tore through the sky like an aurora, instantly appearing in front of Ji Yunfeng's Nascent Soul! 】

【 Sect Master Lin Haotian's expression changed drastically; he hurriedly pulled back and retreated, watching your movements vigilantly. 】

【 Seeing this, Ji Yunfeng laughed wildly with joy: "Hahaha — — Heaven helps me..." 】

【 The next second, the laughter stopped abruptly! 】

【 You saw your five fingers spread open, your palm gathering immense Nascent Soul Power, and you pressed down fiercely towards Ji Yunfeng's inch-long Nascent Soul — — 】

【 "Ah — —! You... what are you doing?!" 】

【 Ji Yunfeng's Nascent Soul let out a shrill scream in your palm, filled with fear and disbelief. The pure Nascent Soul Power was frantically refined by the Dao Pattern in your palm, and its light rapidly dimmed. 】

【 The next second, under the horrified gaze of everyone, that inch-long Nascent Soul shattered like glass, and with a "poof" sound, it turned into specks of spiritual light, dissipating between heaven and earth. 】

【 The Nascent Soul had actually been refined by you in an instant. 】

【 The entire battlefield immediately fell into a deathly silence. 】

【 Hu Yanfeng's pupils shrank, his face turned livid, and he instantly understood that the situation had changed. He did not hesitate to unleash the full power of his Late Nascent Soul Stage, his figure retreating a hundred feet, and his hands quickly formed seals — — 】

【 "Wind and Thunder Evasion, rise!" 】

【 In an instant, violent air currents swirled around him, turning into a cyan rainbow that tore through the clouds, and in a blink, he was hundreds of miles away. 】

【 At the same time, his resentful roar came from the horizon: "Old thief! I will remember today's grudge!" 】

【 Fairy Zhiyun and Vast Emptiness Master only then came to their senses, scared out of their wits. 】

【 The two looked at each other and tacitly fled for their lives in opposite directions. 】

【 However, for Golden Core Cultivators to want to escape in front of a Nascent Soul powerhouse was no different from a pipe dream. 】

【 You saw Peak Master Wuji's figure flicker, leaving behind trails of afterimages, while his true body had already blocked Fairy Zhiyun like a ghost. 】

【 "Senior, spare..." 】

【 Before Fairy Zhiyun could finish her plea for mercy, Peak Master Wuji raised his hand expressionlessly and clenched it — — Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi condensed into a giant palm covering the sky, crushing her along with her Protective Aura, turning her into a rain of blood filling the sky! 】

【 Almost simultaneously, Sect Master Lin Haotian also struck out with a palm, his powerful palm force blasting the fleeing Vast Emptiness Master, who had escaped a hundred feet, into pieces, destroying his Divine Soul completely! 】

【 The people of Ziyang Star secretly felt lucky — — if it had been a helper from Tianyang Star, the consequences would have been unimaginable. 】

【 Meaty ran over smiling, thanking you with a face full of joy: "Grandpa, you are amazing!" 】

【 After you put away Ji Yunfeng's qiankun ring, you looked at her gently: "You are also very brave. To dare to block a Nascent Soul with Foundation Establishment cultivation, there are probably few people in the world who can do that." 】

【 Meaty said with a giggle: "I didn't think that much at the time, but looking back now, it's really scary!" 】

【 Peak Master Wuji walked over and cupped his hands: "Many thanks for your help, Fellow Daoist. May I ask why Your Excellency helped us? Could it be that you have a grudge against the Piaomiao Sect?" 】

【 "I have no grudge against the Piaomiao Sect, but since they are willing to be the henchmen of the Liu Clan Immortal Family, they are my enemies," you replied calmly. 】

【 Everyone was shocked upon hearing this. 】

【 "You are actually enemies with the Liu Clan Immortal Family?" Sect Master Lin Haotian exclaimed, then smiled, "Fellow Daoist's spirit is admirable." 】

【 True Man Ziyang looked you over carefully and said solemnly: "If I am not mistaken, Senior must be Qin Chen, whom the Liu Clan Immortal Family is currently searching for, right?" 】

【 "Ah — —?" Meaty stared at you with wide eyes, "Qin Chen? Then aren't you the follower of that bad guy?" 】

【 As soon as the words left her mouth, she hurriedly covered her mouth. 】

【 Nangong Xueyu gently patted Meaty's head: "You aren't growing in height, why aren't you growing your brain either?" 】

【 At this moment, everyone knew clearly that you must have changed your appearance — — no wonder you would help. 】

【 "It is fine," you smiled, without answering directly. 】

【 Next, you asked them about the recent situation on Tianyang Star over the past year or so — — 】

【 It turned out that the Piaomiao Sect, the Divine Dragon Cult, the True Spirit Immortal Dynasty, these Three Great Factions, as well as countless Loose Cultivators, were all searching for your whereabouts everywhere. 】

【 Not only that, the teleportation array in Tianyang City had been closed, and everyone was trapped on this star, unable to leave. 】

【 The people of Ziyang Star had originally been training in various places, and this time they wanted to try their luck in Tianyang City to see if there were any other ways to leave. 】

【 Unexpectedly, they met Hu Yanfeng and his group on the way. 】

【 It just so happened that Ji Yunfeng's Nascent Soul had not found a suitable Physical Body, and upon seeing Peak Master Wuji, he developed the intention of Possession. 】

【 It was just that they did not expect Sect Master Lin Haotian to have hidden his true cultivation, which was why they were deadlocked for a time. 】
