Chapter 412: Uncle Master, Uncle Master

Upon hearing the Grand Elder's words, Chen Qingyu silently nodded. Indeed, if Yu Mo and the two others could exhaust their own lifespans, that would be perfect.

Likewise, the Huang Ji Sect held the same view; Sect Master Ji Wushuang shared this idea.

In the Luo Xia Sect's main camp, Su Luoxing said in a deep voice.

"How could the Dao Yi Sect be so foolish? With Qi Xiong's despicable, shameless, sinister and vicious nature, how could he possibly let Yu Mo and the two others waste their lifespans for nothing?"

Su Luoxing's thought was the same as Chen Qingyu's and Ji Wushuang's, but he harbored deep doubts about it.

Qi Xiong is not that foolish; he cannot possibly be unaware of what Yu Mo and the two others mean to the Dao Yi Sect.

Upon hearing Su Luoxing's words, Yang Xian, seated below, fell silent for a moment and then said.

"Senior Brother, do you think there's a possibility that Yu Mo and the two others themselves have encountered a problem?"

"Hmm? Please elaborate."

"If Yu Mo and the two others themselves have a problem, and closed-door meditation cannot preserve their lifespans but instead forces them to emerge early, then everything makes sense."

"That makes some sense."

"But if that's the case, then Yu Mo and the two others' current actions must be purposeful."

"What purpose do you think they have?"

"Once the Dao Yi Sect learns it will lose its Great Saint guardian and cannot reverse it, given Qi Xiong's character, what do you think the Sect Master would choose?"

"Yang Xian responded with a counter-question, while Su Luoxing pondered for a moment, then his eyes lit up and he said through gritted teeth."

"Let Yu Mo and the two others fight to the death to replace the old ancestors of other sects?"

"Exactly, this is only human nature; without our Great Saint guardian, you cannot have yours either—only thus can balance be maintained."

"As I said, Qi Xiong that despicable villain is surely scheming something behind the scenes."

"Then what we need to do is preserve our strength and avoid conflict with the Dao Yi Sect?"

"Correct."

"But what if Yu Mo and his group come to our door?"

"That would only awaken our uncles and such, but after the battle ends we should immediately enter closed-door meditation, and at the same time gather as many lifespan-extending treasures as possible, regardless of grade."

"Even if it buys us just one more day, as long as we can exhaust Yu Mo and the two others, we can act against the Dao Yi Sect."

"Correct, what you said is correct."

"After Yang Xian's words, Su Luoxing nodded repeatedly."

"Meanwhile, he secretly calculated that the Dao Yi Sect was indeed in trouble; everything Yu Mo and the two others are doing is merely a smokescreen."

"They three are about to die, merely wanting, before death, to forcibly drag the venerable elders of these three great sects to accompany them in death."

"Thus, Su Luoxing would absolutely not give them a chance."

"As long as we wait for Yu Mo and the two others to die, then the Luo Xia Sect's opportunity will arrive."

"All major sects have their own speculations and are closely watching; naturally, the focus is on when Yu Mo will die."

"Yet in everyone's eyes, Yu Mo and the two others, whose lifespans are nearly exhausted, are now comfortably eating a meal at their encampment outside Yuan Mountain."

"Moreover, all three have ruddy complexions, appearing in better condition than before they emerged from seclusion."

"Even the deathly aura surrounding them has faded considerably without notice—this hardly looks like people about to die."

"Ah, Little Changqing, this coconut chicken is endlessly enjoyable."

"Exactly, old man feels his body much lighter."

"Haha, who says otherwise? Old man feels he could live another five hundred years."

"The three are in high spirits, but Hong Zun and the others beside them stare longingly."

"Uncle Master, can we have this broth base?"

"What broth base?"

"Saying this, Yu Mo lifted it and drank it down in one gulp."

"Having eaten and drunk their fill, the three leaned back on the recliners—this is what life is about."

"Meanwhile, the two hidden Yuan tribe old ancestors, in just a few days, have seen their deathly aura grow somewhat stronger."

"Without entering closed-door meditation, they actually only have two or three years left as well."

"Furthermore, these past days they have watched helplessly as Hong Zun and the others capture the demon beasts of Yuan Mountain."

"It's utterly inhumane."

"Their faces turned deathly pale, and one of the old ancestors gritted his teeth and said."

"\"Damn these people, when will they finally leave? What do they think of my Yuan Mountain? \""

"\"Hmph, however many they kill now, I will make the Dao Yi Sect bury them with them later. \""

"The two sides are worlds apart in mood, and another anxious person is Qi Xiong, rushing over at speed."

"He had chased them all the way, finally reaching Yuan Mountain, where from afar Qi Xiong saw Hong Zun's group's spirit city."

"With a flash, he landed directly inside the spirit city."

"\"Who goes there...... Sect Master? \""

"The guard disciple suddenly saw a figure; his first reaction was to step forward and seize him, but before he could finish speaking, he froze, wondering, \"How did the Sect Master come here? \""

"His expression grim, he coldly said."

"\"Where is the old ancestor? \""

"\"In...... in the kitchen's backyard...... \""

"\"The kitchen? Lead the way. \""

"\"Yes. \""

"Not daring to defy Qi Xiong's order, a disciple could only obediently lead Qi Xiong toward the kitchen."

"All along the way, Qi Xiong's face was as black as a pot bottom; it's been almost half a month, damn near half a month."

The senior martial uncles have wasted so much of their lifespan for nothing; if they were in secluded cultivation, this half month's lifespan could at least offset several years.

It's heartbreaking, even to the point of bleeding; to supplement the senior martial uncles' lifespans, Qi Xiong specially brought three stalks of ninth-grade spirit fruit from the Sect.

Although the effect isn't great anymore, any bit helps.

All the way to the kitchen, Qi Xiong pushed aside the disciple leading the way and strode straight to the rear courtyard.

"Senior martial uncle, senior martial uncle, I'm here, you don't need to worry, I brought.................."

Before he even entered, he shouted loudly, but when Qi Xiong really stepped into the rear courtyard, the sight before him left him stunned on the spot.

"I brought ninth-grade spirit fruit............. had.................."

This is completely different from what I imagined; Shīzūn and the others shouldn't be shrouded in deathly aura, with pallid faces, and their lifespans should be almost exhausted, right?

Why the hell are the three of them sitting together chatting and drinking tea, not to mention each of them has an extremely rosy complexion, and the deathly aura has even lessened somewhat.

No way, this shouldn't be like this, damn it! Could my eyes be playing tricks on me?

Unable to believe what was before them, upon seeing Qi Xiong, Yu Mo and the three others also froze, then spoke with some displeasure.

"Little Qizi, why aren't you holding down the Sect, what are you doing here?"

"I........... I came to take you senior martial uncles back home."

"Going back for what? We're doing just fine here."

"But senior martial uncle, lifespan.................."

"I told you not to worry about the lifespan matter; it's all taken care of."

"If it were before, Qi Xiong would definitely not believe it, but now he can't help but believe it."

"Just looking at their appearance, Yu Mo and the three's situation is clearly improving; their lifespan should have increased."

"But damn, this is outrageous; even a saint-grade heavenly treasure could hardly achieve this, how did the senior martial uncles manage it?"

"After being stunned for a while, eventually Qi Xiong seemed to suddenly realize something, and he spoke with a worried expression."

"Senior martial uncle, you wouldn't be deceiving me by using some secret art, would you? This must not be done.................."

"Get lost."
