C102 Two Great Sects
"Sect Leader came out of seclusion?"
Spiritual energy exploded like a tidal wave in the Elder's Courtyard.
Within the forest, Qin Shi was shocked. He had never expected that the Sect Leader of the Cloud Tripod Sect would come out of seclusion at this critical juncture. To them, this was undoubtedly a grievous news.
"Shitou ge, what do we do?"
In a state of panic, the hand that was holding onto Qin Shi couldn't help but tighten as Xu Qiao'er timidly said.
Qin Shang was even more terrified, his whole body trembling unsteadily. As a disciple of the Cloud Tripod Sect, he had personally witnessed just how powerful the Sect Leader of the Sect was. That level of power was definitely not something that Qin Shi and the rest could look down upon. In front of the Sect Leader of the Cloud Tripod Sect, they were as insignificant as ants.
Run!
This was the only thought that came to Qin Shi's mind.
Qin Shi didn't dare to hesitate. He grabbed Xu Qiao'er and Qin Shang and desperately fled down the mountain.
However, just as they were about to leave, a massive amount of Spiritual Energy tore open the clouds and swept across the Elder's Hall, as if it had awoken from a slumber. The spirit energy in the sky condensed bit by bit, forming a huge palm.
With his palm covering the entire universe, he pinched the three of them.
"Hehe, do you really think my Cloud Tripod Sect is easy to bully while I'm in seclusion? "What kind of cats and dogs would dare to barge in?"
As the three of them were trapped by the giant palm, a loud noise resounded like thunder. Then, the space trembled as a figure flashed above the Elder's Courtyard like a ghost, appearing in front of the three of them out of thin air.
This figure was handsome, dashing, and had the appearance of Pan An. He wore a long robe made from auspicious clouds.
The entire arena was practically deathly silent for a moment. Within the absolute silence, a spirit energy that caused one to tremble in fear was revealed.
Seeing this person, Qin Shang's body trembled. He immediately went limp and gave up on resisting. He trembled uneasily, his frightened face unable to calm down even after a long time. After a long while, he spat out a mouthful of saliva and said, "Lin Yunzhu, Sect Leader!"
"Is this the Sect Leader of the Cloud Tripod Sect?"
Qin Shi narrowed his eyes. All of the hairs on his body stood on end. He felt an unparalleled sense of danger from this person.
Lin Yun was the most powerful existence within the Cloud Tripod Sect and was a well-known figure even in the entire ancient city. It was likely that only the elder of the Li Huo Sect, Ling Xiao, would be able to look down on him.
"What should we do?"
These three words were like an ancient tomb bell ringing in Qin Shi's heart. Facing the Sect Leader of the Cloud Tripod Sect, he had no leeway left. They could only allow themselves to be slaughtered at will. The difference between the two of them was completely qualitative.
Swish, swish, swish!
At this moment, another few silhouettes appeared out of thin air.
This group of people were mostly the elders of the Cloud Tripod Sect as well as a few of their senior disciples, like the three small overlords, Chu Yuanba. They all gathered over and cupped their fists towards Lin Yun at the same time, "Congratulations Sect Leader for emerging from seclusion. Our guardian is at a disadvantage and is willing to accept punishment."
"Hehe, no wonder a traitor appeared!"
Lin Yun stood with his hands behind his back as he spoke. He glanced at Qin Shang and coldly said, "Little fellow, do you know the consequences of betraying the Cloud Tripod Sect?"
Clang! Clang!
Qin Shang's heart trembled. The Cloud Cauldron Sect had an order to betray the sect and make a decisive decision.
At this moment, Lin Yun flipped his hand into the air, and with a flip of his hand into the rain, the spiritual energy around Qin Shang suddenly condensed into sharp needles and pierced into the meridians of Qin Shang's entire body. An unprecedented pain caused Qin Shang to kneel on the ground, both his hands ferociously buckling around his neck.
"Brother Shang!"
Feeling flustered, Qin Shi wanted to charge forward.
"Little fellow, don't worry. It'll be your turn soon."
Without waiting for Qin Shi to step forward, a surge of Xiong Tao's Spiritual Qi viciously struck Qin Shi.
With just a single strike, Qin Shi was sent flying away like a kite with its string cut.
"Shitou!" In the burning book, Yu screamed, causing her to panic. This was the first time she had panicked like this since she met Qin Shi. Looks like this Sect Leader of the Cloud Tripod Sect was truly full of threat. Even she was helpless.
Qin Shi tried his best to grab it, but it was difficult for him to get up.
His eyes darted around as he felt uneasy.
"What should I do? What should I do to escape from the hands of the elders and Lin Yun? I can't die. If I die, then Qiao'er and Brother Shang will also die. I can't do this, this isn't something I want to see. How exactly do I get out of this mess? " Under the fear, Qin Shi felt extremely powerless.
"I've just killed Yang Ziyun, and now that I'm about to leave the Cloud Tripod Sect, what should I do?"
For the first time, he was so close to death.
"Brat, you're the one who killed Yang Ziyun, right? "You are still young, but I didn't think you would be so ruthless. Killing you today could also be considered helping the Li Huo Sect solve its problem." Glancing at it, Lin Yun's face was expressionless as he casually pronounced Qin Shi's death sentence: "Yuanba, kill him."
Facing Lin Yun, Qin Shi felt even more powerless.
There was a chasm between their strengths. To Qin Shi, this was an insurmountable existence. Perhaps, in the future, he might have a chance to surpass Lin Yun. However, if he didn't succeed in escaping today, everything would just be nonsense.
"Understood."
Chu Yuanba nodded and he stepped forward.
The spirit power of someone at the peak of the Spirit Sealing Realm came crashing down on Qin Shi in raging waves.
"Am I going to die?" Desperately, Qin Shi closed his eyes.
Bang!
However, at this moment, a surge of heaven-shaking spiritual power suddenly roiled violently down the mountain.
Spiritual power swept through the fallen leaves and made whistling sounds. It was like a hard steel wall that blocked Chu Yuanba's attack. After blocking the attack, the spiritual energy was like a wolf in the night sky as it fiercely collided into Chu Yuanba's body. Chu Yuanba was forced back a few steps, "Who?"
"Sneaking around, how dare you trespass my Cloud Tripod Sect, come out!"
It was not only Chu Yuanba who was shocked. Lin Yun and the various elders also became serious. They could clearly feel that this Spiritual Energy was not the least bit weaker than Lin Yun's existence.
Realizing this, Lin Yun made a grab in the air.
The spiritual energy in the air flashed under the moonlight, forcefully tearing a gap in the sky.
Ripping open the gaping hole, one figure after another walked out from it. The one leading was a middle-aged man who looked ordinary, but was filled with a strong sense of strength. Most of the people behind him were familiar to Qin Shi. Lin Yu, Su Ming, Zhou Qin, Mo Chen, Elder Xun, Cui Yunhai, and the other elders of the Lihuo Sect were all gathered here.
"Shitou ge!"
Seeing Qin Shi's miserable state, Lin Yu, Su Ming, and Zhou Qin rushed forward worriedly.
Glancing at the members of the Li Huo Sect, Lin Yun and the Cloud Tripod Sect members grew serious. With an embarrassed expression, they said, "Haha, Sect Leader Ling Xiao, with your grand display, does the Li Fire Sect want to send the entire city to be our guest?"
"Sect Leader Lin Yun, you must be joking, I am only here to pick up my sect's disciples to return to the sect."
The person known as Soaring Cloud was the sect master of the Li Huo Sect. He did not buy Lin Yun's words at all, and he said coldly.
"You want to take him? I'm afraid that something is amiss. Not only did he trespass into our Cloud Tripod Sect and secretly let go of our felon, he even killed many of our disciples. If I let you take him away like this, I'm afraid you won't be able to explain yourself, right? " Lin Yun looked displeased as he said directly.
Fallen leaves rustled in the wind as the two Sect Leaders stared at each other.
Ling Xiao, on the other hand, did not give Lin Yun a chance to continue speaking and said, "Lin Yun, you don't have to beat around the bush. Qin Shi came to the Cloud Tripod Sect because he loved his little sister dearly, so he did something wrong. Moreover, you were the one who captured her little sister first, wasn't that so? "
"Soaring Cloud! "Don't go too far!"
Those from the Cloud Tripod Sect all smirked at the same time.
Unexpectedly, Ling Xiao ignored them and swept his gaze across the few elders. A wave of spirit power rose, covering the entire heaven and earth as he jokingly said, "Excessively? How laughable, I've come to save my disciple, is there something wrong with this? "I am definitely going to take Qin Shi today. If your Cloud Cauldron Sect has any objections, you can give it a try!"
The night rippled and the sky surged.
The moment his voice fell, the many elders of the Li Huo Sect burst with spirit energy at the same time.
For a time, the two sides were in a stalemate, ready to strike at any moment.
But at this moment, Lin Yun suddenly raised his hand and stopped the elders of the Cloud Tripod Sect, signalling them not to act rashly. He looked at Ling Xiao with an embarrassed face, gritting his teeth as he humphed, "It seems that Sect Leader Ling Xiao is going against my Cloud Tripod Sect today?"
"Lin Yun, you don't need to call me that. Since I dared to bring people here today, I'm not afraid to make a move." "Qin Shi is a Violet Rank disciple of my Li Huo Sect. Even if he were to be punished, he is not a member of your Cloud Cauldron Sect!"
"Hiss, hiss, hiss …" Purple Level? "
A few elders, including Lin Yun, were stunned.
Violet Rank disciple of the Li Huo Sect? This was something they did not expect.
"So he is a Violet Rank disciple. No wonder he could shock Sect Leader Ling Xiao!" Lin Yun narrowed his eyes and said coldly: "Haha, forget it. Since the head of the Lingxiao Sect has personally appeared, if I do not give this face, it would seem that I am not generous."
After he finished speaking, his gaze swept across Qin Shi, Qin Shang, Xu Qiao'er, and finally raised his head towards Ling Xiao. He laughed sinisterly, "Ling Xiao, in half a month, the Triennial Burning Heaven Secret Realm will arrive. I think this kid will participate, right?"
"Burning Sky Secret Realm?"
Qin Shi had heard of the Burning Heaven Secret Realm before. When he was in the Li Huo Sect's library to exchange for the remnant volume of the Burning Mist Curse, he had heard elder Sheng mention that the remnant volume of the Burning Mist Curse was obtained a hundred years ago during the training session of the Sky Law. He just did not know what kind of place that was.
Ling Xiao looked around and nodded, "Of course!"
"That's good!" After obtaining Ling Xiao's affirmation, a cold, malicious intent flashed through Lin Yun's eyes. After which, he laughed and said, "Kid, I look forward to your performance in the Burning Heaven Secret Realm half a month from now."
"I'll be waiting for you at the Burning Heaven Secret Realm in half a month." At that time, Chu Yuanba who was standing behind suddenly stepped forward and coldly stared at Qin Shi. He had just been beaten back by Ling Xiao, and his heart was filled with resentment. He said coldly, "As long as you dare to come here, I'll make sure you won't be able to return!"
These words were full of threat.
A surge of spirit power approached Qin Shi, demonstrating his strength.
"Fine, I'll wait for you in half an hour!" Being pressured by the spiritual energy, Qin Shi used all the remaining spiritual energy in his body to face Chu Yuanba in a direct confrontation. Although he did not know what the Burning Heaven Secret Realm would be in half a month, he absolutely could not lose such an imposing battle.
Yet at that moment, when they saw Qin Shi retreating due to the loss of his Spiritual Energy, Lin Yu and Su Ming suddenly stepped forward.
Qin Shi was stunned when he saw this. Before he could regain his senses, Lin Yu and Su Ming's spirit power had already been absorbed into his spirit power. The three people's spirit energy surged in the air and combined together to fight against Chu Yuanba, "Wrong, half a month from now, we brothers will be waiting for you!"
