Chapter 449: Disaster in Yuyuan
Upon learning that someone had broken into Yuyuan, everyone was first incredibly shocked, then turned their heads simultaneously to look at Su Xuan, who was standing beneath the Fusang Divine Tree.
Su Xuan felt the gazes of the crowd, but felt no tension; instead, he questioned them, "What are you looking at me for? You don't think this has anything to do with me, do you?"
"I, Su Xuan, never play those kinds of tricks."
"This matter has nothing to do with me!"
"Just because you say it has nothing to do with you, does it really not?" Yu Jun sneered.
Even though he had lost all his power, and even though Su Xuan had demonstrated the mysterious ability to communicate with the Fusang Divine Tree, he had no fear of Su Xuan.
"Today, you ascended Shushan, and someone took the opportunity to break into Yuyuan. There is no doubt that this matter is related to you!"
Su Xuan said somewhat helplessly, "If you want to put it that way, there is nothing I can do, as it is reasonable and well-founded."
It had always been Su Xuan making others take the blame; when had he ever taken the blame for someone else?
Well, strictly speaking, there had been one such time.
That went back many years ago when he was in the Han State; because he was refining pills for the King of Han, he was framed by Ji Ji Wuye and subsequently became the murderer of the King of Han.
That time, he had indeed taken the blame.
And the price for that was that the people behind the scenes, such as Ji Ji Wuye and Bai Bai Yifei, were all killed by Su Xuan.
Su Xuan also wanted to know who had broken into Yuyuan today and dared to frame him. He had a premonition that this person might be an old acquaintance.
"Stop wasting words with him. Capture this person first, then go and deal with the one who broke into Yuyuan!"
A hot-tempered Yuyuan Guard spoke, and the others also revealed their fighting spirit.
Afterward, seeing that the Great Elder did not express his stance and did not stop them,
All the Yuyuan Guards attacked Su Xuan simultaneously. The methods they employed were strange; bursts of ghostly mist were released from their hands, condensing into the shape of dragon-snakes. The ancient gods all wielded dragon-snakes.
The methods of the Shushan tribe were passed down from ancient times, so they naturally carried a bit of ancient, strange color.
Many dragon-snake-shaped ghostly mists came toward Su Xuan, but Su Xuan's expression remained calm, without any change.
Many Yuyuan Guards merely thought Su Xuan was being arrogant.
But immediately after, they were astonished.
They saw the Fusang Divine Tree behind Su Xuan swaying gently, and golden light spilled down.
Under the golden light, the attacks released by the many Yuyuan Guards were quietly dissolved.
"How could this be?"
This scene shocked the many Yuyuan Guards.
Even Yu Jun's expression was one of horror.
He had tacitly allowed the Yuyuan Guards to attack Su Xuan because he had already made up his mind that even if the Shushan tribe were to perish together with the invading enemy today, the Fusang Divine Tree must absolutely not be lost.
Yet he had never expected that the Fusang Divine Tree would actually turn against them and help Su Xuan.
This could not help but remind him of the earlier scene.
Su Xuan's palm landed on the Fusang Divine Tree, and the tree stopped absorbing heaven and earth energy, as if obeying his command.
"What did you do to the Divine Tree?" Yu Jun asked Su Xuan coldly.
"If I said that upon sensing my arrival, the Fusang Divine Tree was willing to be used by me, would you believe it?" Su Xuan explained softly.
"Impossible!"
Yu Jun's attitude was very firm; such a thing could absolutely not happen.
"Whether you believe it or not, this is the fact!"
Su Xuan said again.
Facing the Yuyuan Guards who were attacking him again, the Fusang Divine Tree behind him swayed again, and subsequently, all their offensives turned into nothingness under the golden light.
Yet even so, these people did not give up their fighting spirit against Su Xuan, continuing to attack him unyieldingly.
"Is there any meaning to this?"
Su Xuan looked at these people and sighed.
Afterward, the power of the Fusang Divine Tree no longer actively met these people's attacks, but instead merged into his body. He used the power of the Fusang Divine Tree to perform the Qi-Sealing Method.
Wherever the roots of the Fusang Divine Tree spread, they were all affected by the Qi-Sealing technique.
Many Yuyuan Guards, like Yu Jun, all lost their power.
"Power is disappearing!"
"Why is my power gone?"
"What did you do to me?"
The power they had obtained through years of hard cultivation disappeared, and all the Yuyuan Guards' expressions changed drastically, their hearts filled with horror. Some directly questioned Su Xuan.
Su Xuan did not pay attention to these people, but continued to look at Yu Jun.
"I said, I came with sincerity, and I hope you can recognize reality!"
"If you continue to be obsessed and deluded, I don't mind letting your Shushan tribe be exterminated!"
Yu Jun was silent.
After the many Yuyuan Guards clamored about losing their power, he could not help but associate it with what had happened to him.
He had lost his power earlier because of that one finger from Su Xuan.
He had thought that even if he lost his power, as long as the many Yuyuan Guards were still there, they could still contend with Su Xuan by using their combined strength.
But now, contend with a ghost!
The Fusang Divine Tree had turned against them for some reason and was helping Su Xuan. Su Xuan seemed more like the master of Shushan than they were. By using the power of the Fusang Divine Tree, everyone had lost their power.
The Yu clan had served the Divine Tree for many years and knew very well how powerful the Fusang Divine Tree was.
Su Xuan, using the power of the Divine Tree, to put it bluntly, could indeed exterminate the Shushan tribe with his own strength.
"The Fusang Divine Tree suppresses Yuyuan; it is impossible for it to be handed over to you!"
Yu Jun spoke in a deep voice. Compared to his earlier constant shouting about killing, his attitude had actually improved a lot due to the circumstances.
"Perhaps the Fusang Divine Tree did indeed suppress Yuyuan in the past, but soon, it will no longer be able to suppress it!"
"What do you mean by that? What exactly did you do to the Divine Tree?" Yu Jun's tone had only just improved for a moment before it turned back to anger. Earlier, Su Xuan could borrow the power of the Divine Tree, so he suspected that Su Xuan had done something to it.
Now, he asked this question again.
"It is not what I did to the Divine Tree, but that someone has broken into Yuyuan. Through the message transmitted by the Fusang Divine Tree, the seal there seems to be about to break... So, are you really not prepared to send someone to take a look?"
"If you are prepared to prioritize dealing with the Yuyuan matter, I don't mind letting some of your subordinates recover their power!"
Su Xuan's proposal made Yu Jun surprised again.
Listening to Su Xuan, it seemed he hoped he would prioritize dealing with the Yuyuan matter.
Could it be that the person who broke into Yuyuan and this person were really not in the same group?
