Chapter 1497
Upon hearing Chen Xuan say that a force of several hundred people was rapidly approaching, Qing Tianyu, Zhan Xin, Piao Xue, and the others were all startled and became alert.
Although Chen Xuan did not specify who it was, the fact that he treated it with such seriousness meant that it must be someone not to be trifled with.
For a cultivator of Chen Xuan's level, traveling 12,000 li is just a matter of a few breaths.
Feng Ling and Ni Chang are moving so slowly, they probably haven't yet grasped the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth and the Great Dao of Space.
As the saying goes, "the wind follows the tiger, and the clouds follow the dragon," and even before the people arrived, Yu'er and the others could already feel a powerful and oppressive aura.
How intense was this overwhelming and crushing aura?
Swish swish swish —
Soon, small black dots appeared within the visible range, followed by a dense array of more black dots.
The young girl, Ni Chang, and the young man, Feng Ling, were born in the quasi-saint city of Nine Dragons. Their appearance alongside Qingyun Tianxian was incredibly impressive. After they appeared, not only Chen Xuan's side recognized them immediately, but Nalan Mingyue and the others who were struggling below also recognized them.
"They are the two prodigies of Kowloon City!"
"Young Master Mingyue, look! The prodigy of Kowloon City has arrived! We're saved!"
"Very good, very good! The prodigy of Kowloon City suffered a great loss at the hands of Chen Xuan's partner, but I didn't expect him to arrive at this critical moment. It seems that Heaven has not forsaken the Nalan clan!"
"Should we immediately regroup and head to rendezvous?"
Upon hearing this, Nalan Mingyue immediately rebuked, "Absolutely not! With the strength of those five women, you could very well be killed by them working together. Hold on and wait for an opportunity."
"Yes!"
At this moment, the other Nalan clan members at the Nascent Soul stage all felt immense awe for the Bright Moon Prince who had returned from beyond the realm. It was astonishing that he could maintain absolute rationality at such a critical moment and not be blinded by the hope before him.
In just two or three breaths.
The Hundreds of Nascent Soul Realm cultivators, led by the Twin Heroes of Kowloon City, had already arrived before them.
After witnessing the hellish scene below, even the well-traveled Feng Ling and Ni Chang were taken aback.
More than 20,000 Nascent Soul Realm cultivators were killed in such a short time?
"Junior brother, are you confused? Quickly take your siblings and let's go!"
Wang Kaixuan was currently being held captive by Ni Chang's spiritual energy. Upon seeing Chen Xuan and his five younger siblings appear, he also shouted a low warning.
Upon hearing this, Ni Chang smiled and stepped forward, looking down at Chen Xuan and the others, saying, "Chen Xuan, you are indeed a person of great loyalty and righteousness, but also quite foolish."
"Oh? Please enlighten me, fairy." Chen Xuan looked at the smug young girl, Ni Chang, dressed in a bright and beautiful feathered robe, and said with a smile if he was going to give any advice.
"Hmph, seeing that you have some courage, I'll tell you then?" Ni Chang snorted lightly, "When you're adventuring in the outer space, once someone knows your weakness, you'll have a clear flaw, and your enemies will definitely seize on this weakness to plot against you."
Chen Xuan chuckled and nodded, "For example, right now, the famous Twin Heroes of Kowloon City went so far as to capture my senior brother alive to lure me out, right?"
Although the goal was achieved, it's still better to say something unpleasant about such a despicable act.
In particular, he represented the pride of Kowloon City.
"Hmph, Chen Xuan, don't try to win with your words." Feng Ling's eyes flashed with murderous intent when he saw Qing Tian Yu'er. "The reason we acted this way is because you all are too good at hiding."
Seeing Feng Ling's cold eyes fixed on Yu'er, Chen Xuan smiled and followed up, "So, now that we've seen our senior brother appear, the geniuses of Nine Dragons City should release him, right?"
Upon hearing this, Feng Ling was momentarily speechless, though he still felt that something was amiss.
That's why it's said that language is an art; if a sentence isn't carefully considered, it can easily lead to such an awkward situation.
Yes, when you made that threat, you said that if Chen Xuan didn't show up within ten days, we would kill your senior brother.
Now that he has shown up on his own initiative because of this constraint, shouldn't you release Wang Kaixuan in public as well?
Feng Ling looked at Ni Chang with a gloomy expression. Ni Chang hadn't expected Chen Xuan to take advantage of the situation like this. Originally, based on their arrogance, they hadn't taken Wang Kaixuan seriously.
Releasing oneself voluntarily is different from being instructed to release oneself.
“Alright, but you’ll need to exchange it for the remaining members of the Nalan clan.” Ni Chang looked at Chen Xuan, her eyes glancing at the three hundred Nalan clan members not far behind Chen Xuan and the others.
Chen Xuan's eyes narrowed upon hearing this. Kowloon City was actually openly helping the Nalan family?
"It seems the Nalan family and Kowloon City have a very close personal relationship?" Chen Xuan smiled meaningfully and turned to look at Nalan Mingyue and the others, whose faces were grim. "You traitors, hurry up and hug your new master!"
Betraying one's own people?
New owner?
Nalan Mingyue was completely confused, but little did he know that the hidden power in Chen Xuan's words was not aimed at the Nalan clan cultivators in this area at all.
It was directed at Nalan Qingtian, the ancestor of the Nalan clan who was watching from the outside world.
The phrase "betraying one's own people" was a reminder to Xuan Xiaomo, while the new master was a genuine humiliation of Nalan Qingtian.
On the outside, in the auspicious cloud-shaped viewing area, the air almost froze as Chen Xuan mouthed those words.
Many feudal lords and the head of the God-Slaying Guard glanced, intentionally or unintentionally, at His Majesty the Emperor above, and at Nalan Qingtian, whose face alternated between pale and dark.
His Majesty the Emperor was still pretending not to notice, his expression extremely calm.
However, Bei Shan Xiaolong, Tian Hu'er, and Wu Xin Lao Zu all had solemn expressions, and their eyes were filled with killing intent as they looked at Nalan Qingtian from time to time.
Colluding with outsiders to target the geniuses of the Xuanxiao Great World is treason; betraying one's own people is the least of one's crimes.
Having received benefits from Nalan Qingtian, Qingyun Tianxian naturally needed to stand up for the Nalan clan. He looked at Xuanxiao Mo, whose expression was calm, and said, "Brother Mo, you wouldn't doubt the meritorious officials under your command because of a junior's words, would you?"
Seeing Xuan Xiaomo smile and shake his head, Qingyun continued, "The reason why Feng Ling and Ni Chang helped the Nalan Clan is because I killed hundreds of Nalan Clan Earth Immortals and punished the loss of the Divine Mine City. They couldn't bear to see their people being slaughtered again."
People have to bow their heads under the eaves.
What can Xuanxiao Mo say?
He could only nod and smile, saying, "This junior Chen Xuan has no idea about my relationship with the Nalan clan. He can create discord between us with just a few words. His intentions are despicable."
Seeing this, Qingyun Tianxian smiled and nodded, not expecting Xuanxiao Mo to be so shrewd.
"Such a young age, yet so adept at scheming; he is indeed a potential threat." Seeing Chen Xuan's keen insight, Qingyun Tianxian immediately used his means to inform Feng Ling and Ni Chang that they must kill Chen Xuan and the others in the Mountain and River World.
At this moment, within the world of mountains and rivers.
The two sides in the standoff are exchanging hostages.
Chen Xuan gestured for the remaining three hundred members of Nalan Mingyue's clan to go to Kowloon City, while Ni Chang waved her hand and threw Wang Kaixuan, whose cultivation was sealed on the Soul-Suppressing Pillar, over.
The two groups of hostages passed each other in mid-air.
Suddenly, Feng Ling's voice rang in Nalan Mingyue's mind, "Kill Wang Kaixuan."
