565: Chapter 565 The First Special Guest
"What is going on?"
Lv Yang's vision was a bit blurry, and he had some ringing in his ears.
He clutched his uncomfortable ears and opened his eyes to look around.
Most of them hadn't landed steadily and were sprawled on the ground. Only Xie Bian, who was standing with Xieli, didn't look disheveled.
Looking over at Li Hua, Li Hua was staring at him with wide, disbelieving eyes, backing away while seemingly saying something.
After recovering a bit, he was able to vaguely hear what the other person was saying.
"What is going on! What is going on!"
"You, you, you, why are you a man? And a bald monk at that?"
Lv Yang hated it when people called him a bald monk, but he didn't have time to retort now. He just shook his head to calm himself down.
After calming down, he realized what Li Hua had said and hurriedly felt his body.
"I've changed back?"
Realizing he no longer had to carry those two ounces of flesh, Lv Yang couldn't help but feel a bit relieved.
If it were before, turning into a female might have been helpful, but now that things were this chaotic, it was definitely better to have the effect removed.
But Li Hua was in a miserable state.
Having always thought Lv Yang was a female, he suddenly discovered the other party had turned into a bald monk, to the point where his gaze toward Xieli was off.
Xieli was extremely angry about this and glared back fiercely.
"Look again and I'll dig your eyes out!"
Li Hua wanted to glare back, but upon thinking of the strength gap between the two, he just turned his head away with a cold face.
However, Li Hua was still curious about Lv Yang's state.
This guy was clearly just a Mortal. Even with some strange items, he shouldn't have been able to deceive him, a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator.
He just couldn't unleash his full strength; it wasn't like his Nascent Soul level cultivation was gone. Besides, Xieli, who was at the Soul Transformation Stage, had clearly reacted just now; it was obvious she hadn't seen through Lv Yang's disguise either.
So, what exactly was going on with this disguise?
"Someone is coming."
Bai Ling interrupted the group's conversation, and everyone looked toward the direction of the newcomers.
Even Lv Yang couldn't help but sigh; why were people coming endlessly? Surely it couldn't be their own people again.
"Finally, I see the organization!"
The brown-haired Middle-aged Man leading the group rushed toward Ge Diao without a word, holding his hands as if he had met family, which left Ge Diao stunned for a moment.
This was a group of Cultivators wearing the same combat attire, and every one of them had high cultivation levels.
The leader's Aura even reached the Soul Transformation level, but this demeanor really didn't look like a Soul Transformation Cultivator.
"Do we know each other?"
Ge Diao was a bit puzzled. He didn't seem to have met this person, and given the other party's cultivation, if they were from the Joyous Union Sect, he should have had an impression of them.
"We will know each other, we will know each other."
"Actually, I haven't met you either, friend, but anyone willing to pay money is a good friend of our Lianxing Pavilion."
"Wha... what money?"
Yelena, who was quite sensitive to money, stepped forward quickly to ask about the situation.
"It's just that you have a wealthy friend from the Taiyi Sect who covered the hiring fees for all of us in one go."
"Now we count as temporary mercenaries for the Taiyi Sect; we've signed a contract."
After saying this, the Middle-aged Man showed the contract to the two of them. Ge Diao didn't think much of it, but Yelena exploded first.
"What!"
"Why is it so much money!"
Well, it was their own people again.
Lv Yang wiped his face and pushed away Li Hua, who was trying to touch his chest to verify something.
Only then did he look seriously at Xieli.
"What on earth did you mean by what you just said?"
Xieli didn't even look at him, just holding the hand that had grabbed Xie Bian's wrist, giggling incessantly, which scared Xie Bian into silently retreating behind Bai Ling.
Looking at the group arguing about prices over there and the bunch of people in front of him with whom he couldn't communicate, Lv Yang suddenly felt his prospects were hopeless.
Even though the future he saw was so bleak, this group of people was so unreliable; wouldn't the future be doomed then?
However, Zhou Yan still gave him a surprise. Although he didn't know how this group from Lianxing Pavilion arrived, it must mean that the people in one area were also their own.
If all four areas could remain stable, perhaps this battle wouldn't even need to be fought. Everyone was awake and stable, so they should be able to reach a consensus.
But imagination ultimately contradicted reality.
"Xieli!"
"Have you already betrayed us!"
A roar awakened the giggling Xieli, making her instantly look toward the bottom of the floating island with vigilance.
At this moment, "Li Heng" was leading Winter and the others back quickly to provide support. Even Cen Xiu and his group were no longer guarding the breach; it was clear it was no longer needed.
And the shout just now was from Aleph.
"If you don't want to die, then attack!"
Xieli also snorted angrily and attacked to meet the enemy without a second thought. Explanations were useless at a time like this; fighting was the only way.
Seeing the suddenly evolving combat situation, the first to react was Lv Yang. Without a word, he started his small flying vehicle and ran away.
Once this group of guys started fighting, no matter how many good items he had, he couldn't withstand the aftermath of these guys. Running away first was the most important thing.
He also grabbed the astonished Li Hua along the way.
"Wait, put me down first, I want to go..."
"Alright, since you already know that's not him, you should think about yourself first. Don't you think about it, could someone who can impersonate your father be weak?"
Lv Yang's words left him speechless.
The moment he saw the other party, the connection of Bloodline had already verified the other party's identity. However, whether it was what his eyes saw or what his Soul perceived, that was no longer his father.
He had originally thought it was just his old man being controlled or held hostage, but when he saw this appearance, he still couldn't believe it.
This was the worst outcome; his old man might have already...
Looking at Li Hua, who wasn't struggling, Lv Yang brought him straight into the Truth Cult's base.
And outside, a great battle began abruptly.
"Oh, brother, we won't earn this money."
"You didn't say we were going up against a Body Integration!"
The people from Lianxing Pavilion panicked the moment they saw the incoming Aura. They shoved the newly signed contract into Ge Diao's arms, preparing to run.
But before Ge Diao could angrily curse them for being disloyal, they immediately changed their tune.
"I was kidding, we are good friends, we will definitely help, give the contract back to me."
Ge Diao didn't react in time, but he still shoved it into Yelena's arms first.
Yelena hadn't reacted at first, but when Ge Diao shoved the contract over, she saw the situation clearly.
It turned out that just as the leader of the group below was about to attack, Zheng Dafu suddenly jumped out of a space gate.
Although he was a bit disheveled, his Aura remained undiminished, and he engaged Li Heng in battle first.
Unlike before when "Li Heng" had a group of people helping him, this time Bai Ling, Xie Bian, and others were present, so the pressure was significantly reduced. Zheng Dafu was no longer panicked, and the situation became officially intense.
Seeing this, Yelena signaled to Ge Diao and pushed him out.
The two of them quickly went to support Zheng Dafu.
"We'll talk about the contract later; it depends on your performance."
After saying this, they also joined the battlefield.
A sudden melee broke out, but no one knew that as they started this battle, a machine below the base was responding rapidly.
"How is it possible, has Sui activated?"
Zhou Yan had been searching for Sui at the fastest speed possible. Unfortunately, Sui was hidden extremely well, and the security was very strict. He only found this location after fighting his way here.
But when he arrived at the guard area near Sui, there was only a pile of corpses left.
Realizing there was a problem, Zhou Yan sped up his pace, but when he arrived, he saw a shocking scene.
Sui's body resembled a giant octopus. At this moment, its tentacles were like the hands on a clock, rotating rhythmically, like a delicate gear structure.
At the same time, an unimaginably active Aura of the Law of Time rushed toward him, even affecting the Law of Time within his own body.
And the person standing in front of that huge machine was actually Isaac!
Isaac slowly turned his head, looked at Zhou Yan, and frowned.
"Who are you?"
"How did you find this place?"
"But never mind, being able to witness the advent of Truth can be considered your luck."
After saying this, Isaac leaped over the railing and flew into the "mouthpart" of that giant octopus.
In an instant, those tentacles were no longer rhythmic, but were rotating in reverse in their own directions and at their own speeds.
A huge phantom of a clock suddenly unfolded.
Before Zhou Yan could do anything, he suddenly heard a poem being chanted.
"Half a life of loneliness reading the dust and frost of the world, investigating things and observing the heavens to comprehend the mysterious principles."
"A single spiritual fruit connects to the power of creation, a thousand autumns of Law serve as an immortal chapter."
