Chapter 107: Great Powerhouses from All Sides Are Dumbfounded! There's Such a Move?

At this moment, even Saints like Laozi could not help but feel doubt toward themselves.

Especially Yuanshi, who had always felt superior to Jieyin and Zhunti in the past; his Dao heart nearly collapsed at this time.

After all, even the Three Pure Ones had never enjoyed such treatment as Lu Yun!

What face did he have left to mock Jieyin and Zhunti for being mere nominal disciples? Even Tongtian felt somewhat dejected at this moment, unable to help but wonder: In the eyes of the Dao Ancestor, do we disciples not count for anything at all? If they felt this way, the mood of Jieyin and Zhunti was even more unbearable.

Among all the Saints, only Nuwa, after a moment of shock, suddenly felt happy in her heart.

Because, no matter what, the fact that someone among the Human Race she created had obtained the Hongmeng Purple Qi was a monumental joyous occasion!

Such a joyous occasion completely diluted the slight sense of loss in her heart.

Moreover, in her view, since even Hongjun thought so highly of Lu Yun, Lu Yun would surely be able to Prove the Dao and become a Saint one day! Once Lu Yun became a Saint, with them joining forces, her status in the Great Desolation would inevitably rise significantly; let's see if the Three Pure Ones and the Western Two Sages would dare to coerce or threaten her again! The twelve Ancestral Witches had witnessed Lu Yun inexplicably obtain the Hongmeng Purple Qi from up close the entire time, and at this moment, they were extremely surprised and puzzled.

Zhurong could not help but mutter, "What exactly is that Hongjun thinking?"

Gonggong was equally bewildered: "It's truly strange! Lu Yun already said he didn't want it, so why did he insist on forcing the Hongmeng Purple Qi onto him?"

Ancestral Witch Jumang frowned, a thought surfacing in his mind: "Could it be that Lu Yun possesses some value we haven't seen, and this act by Hongjun is actually to sow discord between us and Lu Yun?"

Others might think Lu Yun had picked up a huge bargain, but the twelve Ancestral Witches, who were not interested in the so-called Hongmeng Purple Qi, always felt there was something wrong with it.

It was just that for a moment, they could not figure it out.

However, Houtu's expression suddenly changed, her gaze sweeping across all directions.

Looking at the gathering Di Jun, Taiyi, Kunpeng, Minghe, and the many Great Desolation powerhouses, she suddenly realized that now that Lu Yun had obtained the Hongmeng Purple Qi, it might invite immense danger! These guys would do anything for the sake of an opportunity to Prove the Dao!

Furthermore, Saints like Laozi might also disregard their dignity and strike directly.

After all, even before Lu Yun obtained the Hongmeng Purple Qi, they were all harboring ill intentions; now that Lu Yun had obtained it, once they regained their senses, their murderous intent toward Lu Yun would only be stronger! Thinking of this, Houtu could no longer afford to ponder the intention behind Hongjun's actions and hurriedly sent a voice transmission to the other Ancestral Witches, telling them to quickly prepare to protect Lu Yun!

The Ancestral Witches also suddenly snapped to their senses at this moment, all gathering under the Thunder Spirit Immortal Wood, protecting Lu Yun who was shrouded by the Lotus Lantern.

They scanned their surroundings, each revealing a fighting spirit, as if they were already impatient to have a great battle.

Nuwa noticed their actions and also suddenly woke up: she could not be happy too early!

She reacted instantly, flashing forward and bringing Fuxi into the range covered by the divine light of the Lotus Lantern, appearing beside Lu Yun with a guarded expression.

Their actions, however, startled the other Saints who were still doubting their lives, as well as the Quasi-Saints and powerhouses nearby.

In an instant, countless gazes fell upon Lu Yun's side, and the surrounding atmosphere suddenly plunged into tension!

Nuwa's expression sank, but she did not retreat; instead, she said firmly to Lu Yun, "Rest assured, we will definitely keep you safe!"

Hearing this, Lu Yun finally recovered from the previous turn of events.

He was actually very puzzled by Hongjun's actions and had been thinking about it just now.

Although he could not think of the specific reason, it was clear that Hongjun was plotting against him!

This really made him feel a bit panicked.

What made him feel slightly at ease was that his Eye of Delusion had not sent him any warnings about this, meaning the Hongmeng Purple Qi itself seemed to pose no immediate danger to him.

But at the same time, the Eye of Delusion sent a warning about his current situation!

Clearly, while the Hongmeng Purple Qi itself was not dangerous, it would bring him other troubles, such as the siege of the surrounding Great Desolation powerhouses!

No matter what, he was currently only a mere Golden Immortal at the perfection stage, while those around him were either Saints or Quasi-Saints, and the worst among them were Great Luo Golden Immortals!

If he were even slightly careless, he could truly be done for at any moment! He felt that this must be caused by the Heavenly Condemnation Halo.

Otherwise, he had only transmigrated for less than twenty days; how could he have caused such a big scene? Regarding the unreasonableness of the Heavenly Condemnation Halo, Lu Yun had gradually become accustomed to the fact that there might be danger at any time, so he was not too panicked.

Not to mention, he had Nuwa, Fuxi, and the twelve Ancestral Witches helping him; he was not facing the danger alone.

This also made him secretly glad that he had followed the many suggestions of his group members earlier; otherwise, how could he have obtained the protection of Nuwa, Houtu, and the others?

It was just that Nuwa and the twelve Ancestral Witches would surely be outnumbered; even if they fought with all their might, they probably could not withstand a siege from the other Great Desolation powerhouses!

Thinking of this, he had another flash of inspiration: it was time to ask everyone for advice again!

He hurriedly opened the Transmigration Chat Group.

Lu Yun: "Big shots, what should I do now? That old man Hongjun doesn't play by the rules and actually forced the Hongmeng Purple Qi onto me! Is he trying to use someone else's hand to kill me? What should I do?"

The members of the Transmigration Chat Group, who were watching the live stream, were actually also shocked by the current situation.

Although it was Lu Yun who was surrounded and it didn't really affect them much, they could not help but break into a cold sweat for him.

Moreover, Lu Yun had brought them too much, and they also did not want Lu Yun to just finish like this! Therefore, upon hearing Lu Yun's plea for help, they all quickly analyzed and thought of countermeasures.

Liu Chongxiao: "The current situation feels very tricky!"

Jiang Ye: "That Hongjun definitely has a conspiracy; there must be something wrong with the Hongmeng Purple Qi!"

Xiao Ling'er: "Regardless of whether there is a problem with the Hongmeng Purple Qi, think about how to let Lu Yun get out of this situation!"

Zhou Yu: "It's too hard! I can't think of any way at all! I used to envy Lu Yun for being able to transmigrate to the Great Desolation, but now I'm suddenly a bit glad I didn't go!"

Ling Yan: "I really didn't expect the power of the Heavenly Condemnation Halo in the Great Desolation to reach this extent!"

Seeing that the barrage was basically just simple exclamations and complaints, Lu Yun felt secretly anxious.

Could it be that everyone had no countermeasures this time?

He inexplicably became a bit nervous, thinking to himself: It seems I have to open the two Legendary Treasure Chests first and see if I can get anything useful!

Just at this moment—

Qiu: "What are you panicking about? Isn't it just a strand of Hongmeng Purple Qi?"

Lin Chen: "Hmm? Old Qiu, could it be that you have a way?"

Lu Yun perked up instantly, watching the barrage carefully.

Qiu: "Since everyone has guessed that the Hongmeng Purple Qi is problematic and has brought trouble, wouldn't it be over if Lu Yun just gave the Hongmeng Purple Qi away and let it trap someone else?"

As soon as these words were said—

"Holy crap!"

"Holy crap!"

"Holy crap!"...

Liu Chongxiao: "Damn it! That's right! Since this thing is a ticking time bomb, why not just let it go and bring disaster to someone else?"

Jiang Ye: "Haha! Great idea! I suddenly thought that Lu Yun might be able to turn the tables now and use the Hongmeng Purple Qi to kill those guys he doesn't like!"

Lin Chen: "Don't even mention it, it's highly feasible! Perhaps it won't work against those Saints, but it would absolutely be no problem if used against Quasi-Saint powerhouses like Di Jun and Taiyi!"

Chen Hai: "But, just handing over this Hongmeng Purple Qi like this? Isn't that a bit too much of a pity!"

Lin Yan: "Indeed! After all, this is the Hongmeng Purple Qi that others would give anything to obtain!"

Lei Hong: "Who said it has to be handed over? Can't Lu Yun auction it off?"

Qiu Wanli: "Damn! Lei Di, your move is even more ruthless! This way, not only can Lu Yun divert the disaster, but he can also take the opportunity to rake in benefits!"

Fang Xu: "Even if the person who obtains the Hongmeng Purple Qi is killed, they wouldn't even be able to blame Lu Yun!"

Ming Xi: "Hiss!"

Xiao Ling'er: "Terrifying! Is this the way a big shot thinks?"

Fang Wenjie: "666!"

"Ding! Suggestion received: Auction the Hongmeng Purple Qi! Reward: One Legendary Treasure Chest!"

Lu Yun's eyes lit up!

Sure enough, the people in the group never disappointed him! Didn't this just trigger a high-level mission again?

Moreover, such a miraculous idea as auctioning the Hongmeng Purple Qi was indeed something he couldn't have thought of himself!

Thinking about it carefully, he felt this strategy was actually quite viable! Anyway, Hongjun never said that Lu Yun couldn't auction the Hongmeng Purple Qi! In this way, not only could he solve the current trouble, but he could also divert the disaster, and even take the opportunity to fish for some benefits! Killing multiple birds with one stone! Thinking of this, Lu Yun decisively prepared to take action.

Lu Yun: "@Lei Hong, many thanks for the suggestion, Big Shot Lei Di! I'm taking action now!"

Lei Hong: "You're welcome!"

Everyone in the group couldn't help but feel expectant, wanting to see exactly how Lu Yun would operate, and even more so, wanting to see what kind of reaction these Great Desolation natives would have because of such a wild move from Lu Yun! Many people even prepared to record new material at the first opportunity!

As it happened, the atmosphere around them had already become tense to the extreme.

The Demon Race powerhouses like Di Jun, Taiyi, and Kunpeng had already gathered together, and even Baize had returned to their side.

They were clearly planning to seize the Hongmeng Purple Qi first, and then decide how to distribute it.

Other great powers from various sides were also moving closer to those they were familiar with, looking as if they were preparing to join forces.

Seeing this situation, the twelve Ancestral Witches did not care at all.

Zhurong even stared at Kunpeng, grinning as he said to Dijiang: "I didn't expect this Kunpeng to deliver himself to our door. Big Brother, it seems the big pot I prepared can finally be put to use!"

The other Ancestral Witches also revealed expressions of being very greedy and impatient to start catching Kunpeng.

Seeing this, Kunpeng couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

However, thinking that he still had Di Jun and the others on his side, and that there were many other Great Desolation powerhouses around who were also hostile to the twelve Ancestral Witches, his heart settled down quite a bit.

He even sneered and said with disdain: "If you have the ability, feel free to come and try!"

This was actively provoking the twelve Ancestral Witches, preparing to lure them into making a move!

The twelve Ancestral Witches really fell for it; several of them were already impatient and were just about to strike directly.

Just at this moment, Lu Yun's voice unexpectedly reached everyone's ears.

"It's rare for everyone to be here, so I might as well announce something!"

With one sentence, he abruptly drew everyone's attention back to himself.

Everyone was somewhat surprised; they didn't expect that Lu Yun would dare to speak up in such a situation! Those Ancestral Witches also gave up the idea of attacking for the moment and looked at Lu Yun with curiosity.

Nuwa naturally looked at Lu Yun as well, and discovered a faint smile on the corner of Lu Yun's mouth; for some reason, she suddenly felt a bit uneasy.

Nuwa couldn't help but ask: "Lu Yun, you... what are you doing?"

Lu Yun just smiled and said: "Nothing, I just suddenly thought that the Hongmeng Purple Qi is useless to me, but others seem to want it very much, so I was thinking, should I sell it to someone who needs it?"

Once these words were spoken, the surrounding people, who had been serious and tense, suddenly fell into a state of confusion once again.

Many people widened their eyes, doubting whether they had just suffered from auditory hallucinations? "This Human Race... what did he just say?"

"He seems to have said he wants to sell the Hongmeng Purple Qi?"

"How is this possible? Is he crazy?!"

"Don't you think this Human Race has always had something wrong with his brain? Maybe he really is prepared to sell the Hongmeng Purple Qi?"

After a period of confusion, many people looked at Lu Yun with increasingly heated gazes.

Even the Saints like Laozi, Yuanshi, Jieyin, and Zhunti, who had been thinking about how to attack Lu Yun just a moment ago, slightly narrowed their eyes, their gazes flickering.

Nuwa and Fuxi, the siblings, looked at Lu Yun with disbelief, completely unable to understand why Lu Yun would suddenly pull such a stunt out of nowhere? Could it be that his soul is truly incomplete?!

Finally, Minghe Laozu couldn't help but be the first to speak, asking Lu Yun: "Human, do you really intend to sell the Hongmeng Purple Qi in your possession?"

Others also looked at Lu Yun nervously.

Just as Lu Yun was about to open his mouth to answer, Nuwa, who was on the side, spoke first.

"Hahaha!"

Nuwa laughed loudly and said: "Minghe, you are truly naive! Not to mention how precious the Hongmeng Purple Qi is, it was bestowed by the Dao Ancestor; how could Lu Yun just sell it whenever he wants? What if the Dao Ancestor punishes him for it?"

Everyone fell silent at once.

Because Nuwa's words were clarifying the stakes to Lu Yun, reminding him not to act recklessly.

At the same time, wasn't she also telling everyone around that even if they wanted to snatch it, Hongjun might just take the Hongmeng Purple Qi back later! By then, they would have come away empty-handed, and might even offend her, a Saint, in the process!

This forced them to carefully consider things before taking action!
