Chapter 132: The Crisis of Langtian City
"Pavilion Master!"
"Lord Pavilion Master!"
"......" The crowd looked at the familiar figure before them with sudden joy, and the knot in their hearts was swept away. Since Lord Pavilion Master had already come out of seclusion, it was time for that group of rats to meet their misfortune!
Hahaha~
Yi Huang was also somewhat surprised by Xiao Han's appearance, "You..."
If she remembered correctly, the ten-year period had not yet arrived, so this guy's strength should not have recovered yet, right?
However, the vast aura radiating from Xiao Han's body truly manifested his own power, so Yi Huang set aside this doubt.
"You... have come out of seclusion?" Originally, she wanted to ask if Xiao Han had recovered,
but considering there were others present, Yi Huang was a bit tactful.
"Yes, I came out early this time." Xiao Han also understood the implication and responded with perfectly normal words as well.
It was just that the interaction between the two Pavilion Masters, primary and secondary, made everyone in the hall feel extremely strange; however, this emotion was quickly replaced by the ecstasy in their hearts.
"Now that Lord Pavilion Master has come out of seclusion, I want to see if those guys still dare to be so arrogant." The Second Elder with red hair and red eyebrows slapped the table and said excitedly.
"Indeed, indeed..." And this statement received the unanimous agreement of the many high-ranking Elders.
"Alright,
now tell me what happened!" Xiao Han took charge without hesitation, directly taking over the leadership of this meeting and beginning to understand the whole event.
Yi Huang nodded and told everything that had happened over the past year in detail, making Xiao Han's expression change as he listened, and the jade cup in his hand silently turned into nothingness.
That group of rats from the Soul Hall actually still didn't know pain, provoking trouble time and time again. That would be one thing, but he didn't expect there to be another one rushing to their death...
"Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan!"
Xiao Han muttered calmly, and many Elders revealed cold smiles; when Lord Pavilion Master behaved like this, a certain force was about to be unlucky!
"But why didn't you let this guy take action?" Xiao Han quickly adjusted and was puzzled. He gestured toward the silent Thunder Spirit.
Hearing Xiao Han's question,
Thunder Spirit tilted his head and looked at him,
then continued to drink tea. It was best not to take action,
he still wanted to have a good rest!
Ever since leaving the sealed ruins, Thunder Spirit had been living a retired life. Usually drinking tea and walking his bird,
while practicing on the side, the days were quite pleasant.
"It was just to guard against certain restless guys." Yi Huang smiled, "However, since you have returned, everything is nothing."
A trace of fatigue showed on her beautiful face; mobilizing the manpower of Langya Pavilion to fight during this period had consumed a lot of her mental energy. Now that Xiao Han was back, the relaxed Yi Huang revealed a fragile posture.
"You get some good rest, leave everything to me!" Xiao Han held Yi Huang's hand and frowned, adding another reason to his list for the must-kill of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan.
"If possible, it is best to capture them alive." Seeing the killing intent in Xiao Han's eyes, Yi Huang advised.
"Five Dou Saints, we can earn quite a lot, right?" At this moment, the Vice Pavilion Master of Langya Pavilion was beaming, a bit like a black-bellied little fox.
"Fine, I'll listen to you." Seeing Yi Huang's appearance, Xiao Han also felt much more at ease and readily agreed.
However...
Xiao Han gave a wicked smile and aimed his gaze at the leisurely Thunder Spirit,
"Elder Lei, any interest in taking a trip to the battlefield?"
Hearing Xiao Han's words, Thunder Spirit's movements stalled,
his face twitched, and he really wanted to say "no," but having eaten someone's food, he felt obligated...
"I'm interested!" Thunder Spirit shamefully bowed his head; anyway, he had learned a lot of intelligence from Yi Huang, a bunch of weaklings, what was there to fear!
"Then I'll trouble Elder Lei to accompany this Pavilion Master on a trip!" Xiao Han clapped his hands and stood up to say.
He casually tore open a pitch-black crack and stepped directly into it, with Thunder Spirit following closely behind...
Their figures disappeared under the gaze of the crowd of Elders.
Southern Region of Central Plains, Langtian City.
Langtian City is located at one of the junctions between the Southern Region of Central Plains and the Beast Domain. Due to its excellent geographical advantage, many rogue cultivators and powerful forces pass through it, and it possesses various rare treasures, Medicinal Herbs, and other precious resources, making it exceptionally prosperous.
It had long since become the most powerful city controlled by the top force of Central Plains, Langya Pavilion, outside of the main city of Langya City, providing a large amount of resource support for Langya Pavilion and holding a very important status.
In the past, there were nearly ten Dou Zun Elders stationed here, enough to suppress all sorts of petty scoundrels, and the city was also extremely peaceful and stable.
However, for the past month, the atmosphere in Langtian City had been quite tense, and the flow of people had been sparse. For no other reason than that this place had become a battlefield for Langya Pavilion and the two major super forces, the Soul Hall and the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan.
Outside the city, there were many camps and powerful auras, clearly the invaders this time. Inside the city, shops were tightly shut, there were no pedestrians on the road, and only the Langya Pavilion Disciples responsible for patrols walked through the streets with serious expressions.
And in the tallest building in Langtian City, there were two figures with terrifying auras.
"Ye Elder, is your Langya Pavilion definitely alright?" An old man with a youthful face and crane-like hair asked with a solemn expression; he was none other than the Tianyin Laoren who had come to provide support.
And the person he was talking to was naturally the other Dou Saint expert here, Ye Jianxin.
"Cough~" Ye Jianxin coughed somewhat weakly, smiled at the worried gaze of the other party, and said: "Senior Tianyin, please rest assured, even if the Soul Hall Hall Master and the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan Leader attacked in person, nothing would happen."
The tone was quite confident, and Tianyin Laoren immediately felt relieved.
However, after a while, that slightly ruddy complexion became unsightly again, "I estimate that those guys will come again in the next few days. Can your body still hold up?"
Ye Jianxin's injuries did not look like a big problem, but only Tianyin Laoren knew how tricky they were. As a Dou Saint expert, one possesses a terrifying recovery ability, and ordinary injuries can recover quickly.
But Ye Jianxin's injuries were somewhat strange; there was a force inside his body preventing the recovery of the wounds, and even with the treatment of Tianyin Laoren, it had not been completely eradicated.
"I don't know what kind of thing the Soul Hall used, it's so troublesome." Tianyin Laoren said angrily.
When the five were fighting, the Soul Hall Great Heavenly Venerable suddenly threw a dart-like hidden weapon at Ye Jianxin. The latter was caught off guard and hit; he originally thought it was just a minor injury, but only afterwards did he learn the mystery behind the hidden weapon.
As a result, it had remained there until now, and quite a bit still lingered; at least another month of recuperation was needed.
"This time, I estimate I will have to ask for reinforcements from the Pavilion." Ye Jianxin also had a solemn expression; at first, he did not have this idea, he had only reported the intelligence to the Langya Pavilion headquarters.
Yet, these past few days, he discovered the hidden problem: Ye Jianxin was not some stubborn child; if he could not handle it himself and his family had the spare capacity, he naturally would not stubbornly refuse to speak up.
But...
"Perhaps it is a bit late." A bad premonition arose in Ye Jianxin's heart. That bunch of fellows from the Soul Hall would not give him such ample time.
Sure enough...
"Ye Jianxin, old ghost Tianyin, come out and die at once!"
The arrogant, hoarse voice of the Heavenly Venerable rang out outside Langtian City, clearly spreading throughout the entire city.
"Let's go." Ye Jianxin drew his long sword from its sheath and said coldly, "After this time, it will be them who die!"
"Since that is the case, I, this old man, shall move my bones a bit more!" Somewhat surprised by Ye Jianxin's calmness, Tianyin Laoren glanced at the former, then smiled.
At the same time, he sighed in admiration in his heart:
"Langya Pavilion, truly unfathomable!"
