Chapter 1269: Chapter 1266: Hesitant to Act Due to Hostages
"Stop!"
"Jiang Yao, as a Sect Master and a Half-step Divinity Transformation Realm expert, you actually attack a group of Foundation Establishnt juniors. Have you no sha?"
Almost simultaneously, Yan Wuji and Ling Shuanghua exclaid in alarm, their aura surging as they attacked Jiang Yao together.
A cold gleam flashed in Jiang Yao’s eyes as he casually struck a palm towards Yan Wuji. In the void, Yan Wuji’s figure seed to be bound by a strange force, his movents slowed, and at the sa ti, a thick, solid palm force blasted towards him.
Buzz!
A dazzling golden light flashed, manifesting a golden shield in front of Yan Wuji. The invisible palm force crashed against the golden shield, exploding with golden light, sending Yan Wuji flying, enveloped by the shield.
Whoosh!
At the sa ti, Ling Shuanghua launched a mana attack towards Jiang Yao, igniting a blazing firelight in the void before him with a whoosh.
This firelight seed to condense into a sharp, long sword, burning away the force restraints in the surrounding void with explosive sounds, rushing towards Jiang Yao relentlessly.
Under normal circumstances, such an attack thod would be instantaneous, as fast as lightning. Not to ntion Foundation Establishnt Cultivators, even early to mid-stage Core Formation experts would likely be instantly killed.
However, at this mont, in everyone’s view, the speed of this attack seed fast but was actually constrained by an invisible force law, moving in slow motion.
No wonder it’s the Divinity Transformation Realm!
Within this domain, the power rules and space rules were all controlled by the Divinity Transformation Realm expert. Despite Ling Shuanghua being a late-stage Nascent Soul peak expert, this attack appeared so slow, weakened by sixty to seventy percent of its power.
After Jiang Yao sent Yan Wuji flying with a palm strike, he turned to look in the direction of Ling Shuanghua. At this mont, the Fiery Fla Sword was shooting towards him, less than ten ters away.
He was secretly astonished.
His control over such domain laws was still too weak. The opponent could still launch an attack of such power within his rules, even posing a certain threat to him, which was truly extraordinary.
He snorted coldly and casually flicked his hand.
A terrifying icy aura suddenly descended, rapidly enveloping the Fiery Fla Sword.
"Sizzle-sizzle..."
The void echoed with harsh explosive sounds.
At that mont, two opposing power elents collided intensely.
The Fiery Fla Sword’s terrifying power was instantly subdued, becoming weaker and weaker, finally completely suppressed by the frightening icy aura, disappearing less than a ter in front of Jiang Yao.
Though it sounds lengthy, all this happened in an instant.
As Yan Wuji was sent flying and Ling Shuanghua’s domineering attack was easily neutralized, the other Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators began to act.
A great battle was on the verge of erupting.
Jiang Yao roared, "Do you really not care about the lives and deaths of these disciples or their descendants?"
With this roar, the thirty-one Foundation Establishnt Cultivators on the Spirit Ship all turned pale, collapsing to the ground, spitting blood.
"Stop!"
Xiao Yue’s expression changed dramatically as she shouted sternly.
Among the Foundation Establishnt disciples on that Spirit Ship was one of her secular family’s direct nephews.
The other Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators also had their expressions change drastically, all urging Jiang Yao to stop.
They too had disciples or relatives by blood on that Spirit Ship.
Jiang Yao’s heart settled.
These Foundation Establishnt Cultivators returned at just the right ti; otherwise, today’s situation would certainly spiral out of control, and the consequences would be unimaginable.
Xiao Yue and the other five Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators all hovered in mid-air, not daring to continue the attack.
Although Yan Wuji and Ling Shuanghua were decisive in killing, unwilling to compromise for the Foundation Establishnt disciples, the other Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators were cautious, not daring to act rashly. Even if the two joined forces, they might not be Jiang Yao’s match, let alone with Hai Lingfeng and Jiang Jun assisting from the side. The two could only sigh secretly and halt their attack.
"Jiang Yao, as a righteous Sect Master, and a Half-step Divinity Transformation Realm expert, who uses the lives of Foundation Establishnt juniors as leverage, are you not afraid of being ridiculed by the Southern Domain Cultivation World?" Yan Wuji asked angrily.
Jiang Yao smiled indifferently, replying coldly, "You five families ganging up on our Lingxiao Sect lineage, aren’t you afraid of being ridiculed by the Cultivation World?"
Yan Wuji retorted, "We are all of Nascent Soul Stage cultivation, and even if we challenge you, a Half-step Divinity Transformation expert, it’s not shaful to speak of."
Jiang Yao said, "As a Sect Master, the survival of the sect takes precedence over all. Extraordinary tis call for extraordinary asures, and this is not unreasonable."
Ling Shuanghua said solemnly, "Jiang Yao, do you think rely the lives of dozens of Foundation Establishnt Cultivators can threaten the five families of the Southern Domain? Compared to our families’ future life and death in the Southern Domain, what significance do these Foundation Establishnt disciples’ lives hold? As sect or family disciples, they die for the rise and fall of their family and sect, and it’s an honorable death."
Most of the Foundation Establishnt disciples oppressed on the Spirit Ship showed expressions of despair upon hearing this.
Who is willing to die?
But a very few of the Foundation Establishnt Cultivators had a resolute look in their eyes, agreeing with Ling Shuanghua.
Of course, these individuals mostly belonged to the Feng, Zhong, and He families. As descendants of cultivation families, their sense of belonging to their families was high, willing to sacrifice even their lives for their families.
"In that case, I’ll fulfill their loyal hearts," Jiang Yao said coldly.
"No!" Xiao Yue Fairy’s expression changed dramatically, exclaiming.
Ling Shuanghua frowned, internally cursing her stupidity, but since the other party was her fellow sect junior, she couldn’t flare up in person.
The other Nascent Soul Cultivators with relatives on the Spirit Ship also showed tense expressions.
Jiang Yao laughed, "Their lives are all in your hands now. Will you let them live, or will you let them die?"
Xiao Yue Fairy hurriedly said, "Sect Master Jiang, calm down. If they die, then our feud will be eternal, and it will bring no benefit to your Lingxiao Sect."
"Buzz!"
At that mont, a fluctuation suddenly ca from the Transmission Channel.
Everyone swept their Divine Senses, seeing a Foundation Establishnt Cultivator flying in on a Spirit Boat.
A Nascent Soul Cultivator from the Fla Moon Sect frowned and asked, "Dongfang Qing, why have you returned alone?"
Dongfang Qing was precisely the Fla Moon Sect’s Foundation Establishnt Cultivator sent back by Yang Fei to deliver the ssage. Seeing his uncles, the Nascent Soul ancestors of his sect present, he was overjoyed and quickly reported, "To report to the ancestors, there is grave news. Most of our disciples who went to Earth for the workshop trade have been slaughtered by Earth Cultivators. Now, only a few have escaped doom, captured by Yang Fei in the White Jade City."
"What?"
Hai Lingfeng’s expression changed dramatically, grabbing Dongfang Qing and lifting him into the air.
"How is my son Hai Mo?" Hai Lingfeng’s heart was in his throat as he stared at Dongfang Qing and asked.
