127: Chapter 127 Crisis Everywhere
"Our Chen Family is willing to submit to the Anti-Immortal Alliance." Chen Yuanwen spoke hurriedly.
Matters had reached this point, and they had no other choice.
Fortunately, they still had Wuyue Mountain led by Chen Changqing. At the very least, even if their lineage perished, Wuyue Mountain could still be preserved.
Chen Changyue did not object from the side either. As a Purple Palace Cultivator, it was far too easy for Zhao Tiangang to wipe them out, leaving them with no room to resist whatsoever.
Zhao Huaiyi, who was standing beside Zhao Tiangang, stepped forward and took out a porcelain bottle containing two black Medicinal Pills.
Chen Yuanwen and Chen Changyue felt helpless. As expected, since the other party had come, they were definitely fully prepared.
After taking them, the two immediately swallowed them, while their minds were already searching for countermeasures.
Then they looked towards Zhao Tiangang, realizing clearly that Zhao Tiangang was not yet satisfied with this.
The two had gloomy expressions in their eyes, knowing that they wouldn't be able to get through this hurdle today without taking an oath.
The two took their oaths one after another. However, the oaths they took did not implicate the Family—a point that both sides tacitly avoided mentioning. If they were truly forced to implicate the Family, they would rather die than willingly drag the Family's fate into this.
As for Zhao Tiangang, the main purpose of his trip was to make the Chen Family work for him. If things went contrary to his wishes, it would be troublesome, because it was impossible for them to truly massacre the Chen Family either; otherwise, it would attract the attention of the Yuxu Sect.
"Since the two little friends have decided to submit to our Anti-Immortal Alliance, we will be fellow travelers in the future." Zhao Tiangang stroked his beard with a chuckle and said.
Then he motioned to the two people beside him. Understanding his meaning, they immediately took out a porcelain bottle containing two foundation establishment pills.
Afterwards, they left.
Chen Yuanwen and Chen Changyue looked at each other with bitter expressions. From today onwards, if the two of them betrayed the Anti-Immortal Alliance, their cultivation would never make even a shred of progress, and even after death, their Divine Soul would be completely destroyed.
Fortunately, at least the people with the greatest potential in the Family were not present here. This was also one of the main reasons why they were willing to take the oath.
"Changyue, starting from today, you will go into seclusion to Cultivate, and you must not interfere in other matters." Chen Yuanwen said in a deep voice.
"Tenth Uncle, this... I understand." Chen Changyue wanted to say something, but ultimately didn't speak out. He knew this was the best way, which also meant that Chen Yuanwen before him was preparing to turn against them at any moment.
As long as Chen Changyue did nothing, he would not be considered as betraying the Anti-Immortal Alliance, because he knew nothing.
"Tenth Uncle, what about these two foundation establishment pills?" Chen Changyue asked.
"When Chen Changqing returns from the Zifu Secret Realm, I will give these two foundation establishment pills to him." Chen Yuanwen mentioned.
"Mn, since that's the case, Tenth Uncle, I will go into seclusion first." Chen Changyue nodded and said. Starting from today, he would completely enter closed-door seclusion and no longer manage any affairs of the Family.
...
Just as Chen Xuanyi was about to return to the Family, the moment he stepped out of the marketplace, he was targeted.
Chen Xuanyi said calmly, "Fellow Daoists, why are you following this humble one?"
Hearing this, several people not far away revealed themselves one after another, numbering four in total.
The aura of each of them was not weak. Among them, three had the cultivation of the third layer of Foundation Establishment, while the other was at the fifth layer.
This lineup was far more powerful than the two brothers Xiao Lin and Xiao Qi previously.
In particular, one of them, even though his cultivation was a layer lower than his own, possessed an aura that made even him somewhat wary.
And that person was none other than Qin Yu.
Qin Yu smiled and said, "It's nothing. You just need to know that you're going to die. Fellow Daoists, let us make our move. Once this is over, we will drink and make merry together."
After saying that, he formed hand seals with both hands, and a set of Flying Swords instantly flew out, striking towards Chen Xuanyi.
The others also made their moves one after another.
Seeing this, Chen Xuanyi felt doubt in his heart along with wariness.
Although he didn't know why the other party attacked him, it must be an enemy that the Chen Family had offended before.
Chen Xuanyi first took out a glazed talisman, activated it, and blocked it in front of him to buy himself a moment of time. Fortunately, when he planned to leave the Chen Family, he had asked Chen Changqing for many glazed talismans.
However, after years of consumption, this single one was his last glazed talisman; once used up, they would be completely gone.
Then, the chiyang sword in his hand was raised, and he immediately slashed out several sword strikes.
Instantly, a series of explosions resounded in mid-air, but no one noticed at all, because those four intended to solve Chen Xuanyi in this desolate place.
By then, no one would know who killed this person, and even if Li Qingling wanted revenge, she would have nowhere to seek it.
After blocking Qin Yu's attack, the glazed talisman was shattered in just a few breaths.
This power shocked Chen Xuanyi. The strength of this person was definitely not below his, and the quality of his Dao foundation was at least on the same level as his own.
Seeing that the strength of the few opponents was not something he could contend with, Chen Xuanyi had no choice but to fight while retreating.
Those people were unlikely to let Chen Xuanyi go, so naturally they chased after him as well.
Thus, both sides fought all the way from the sky to the ground, and then from the ground back up to the sky.
During this period, Chen Xuanyi even took out some millennial spiritual milk to consume. This scene made the few people even more frantic, as they hadn't expected Chen Xuanyi to actually have such a treasure on him.
Originally, the other three came to help only because of the high benefits offered by Qin Yu, but now it was different. This millennial spiritual milk was enough to make them risk their lives to kill the Chen Xuanyi before them.
Chen Xuanyi was not afraid either. There were still three drops of millennial spiritual milk inside his Storage Pouch. As long as he had this spiritual milk, he still had some hope of turning defeat into victory, because the four of them lacked such a method to rapidly recover their magical power.
Seizing an opportunity, Chen Xuanyi slashed one of them into heavy injuries with a single sword strike, but he was also struck by Qin Yu's Flying Sword because of it.
If not for the escape Talisman in his hand displaying its might, he would have been completely slain here just moments ago.
Fortunately, at least one of the opponents was unable to fight again for a short time.
Chen Xuanyi's persistence greatly shocked the few of them. Clearly he was only at the fourth layer of Foundation Establishment, yet he was so difficult to deal with, and he possessed so many Talismans in his hands as well.
Had it not been for these Talismans and that millennial spiritual milk, the few of them would have already killed Chen Xuanyi long ago.
The two sides fought for a day and a night. Qin Yu's side had consumed a lot of their magical power, and during this period they had also taken Medicinal Pills to recover their magical power; otherwise, no matter how much magical power they had, it couldn't withstand such consumption. Meanwhile, Chen Xuanyi silently took out his last drop of millennial spiritual milk.
Watching Chen Xuanyi's complexion turn from pale to ruddy, all of them felt a certain urge to retreat in their hearts.
Seeing what the others meant, Qin Yu hurriedly spoke, "Fellow Daoists, if you let him go today, none of you will be able to run away in the future either."
"Furthermore, I am willing to give each of you one or two of the second-rank Enlightenment Tea as a gift, and I will not take a single coin of the deceased's belongings."
Only after Qin Yu said so much did the few of them pick up their ambition to kill Chen Xuanyi once again.
"I refuse to believe the opponent still has so much millennial spiritual milk." One of them said angrily. He could swear that today's battle was the hardest fight he had ever encountered in his life.
Hearing this, the others also successively increased the intensity of their attacks.
Meanwhile, Chen Xuanyi's situation was becoming increasingly dangerous, because the millennial spiritual milk could only restore magical power and could not heal wounds. He had previously been attacked by several people, and at this moment his entire body was covered in injuries. If not for the burning desire to survive in his heart, he would have already died long ago.
