23: Chapter 22: Overbearing Dominance!
“Uncle Ning, you must be tired after coming to Emperor Immortal Sect, why don’t you co down and have so tea?” Zhao Yulong hurriedly said.
The man surnad Ning looked at the white-robed youth, and seeing him nodding slightly, he agreed to the suggestion.
“Prepare the tea!” The Great Elder imdiately arranged it.
Zhao Yulong was also delighted, provocatively glancing at Ye Xuan, which caused Ye Xuan to shake his head secretly.
Just a jumping clown, not worth ntioning!
“Our sect has not hosted the two honored guests from afar well, we hope for your forgiveness.” The Great Elder bent his waist, his face full of obsequiousness, afraid that the two would feel dissatisfied.
Little did he know, just as he finished speaking, the white-robed youth halted and furrowed his brows tightly.
The middle-aged Ning reacted imdiately, swinging a backhanded slap that landed squarely on the Great Elder’s face!
“What are you worth?
You dare to address the young master as your ‘fellow Daoist’?”
With that blow, the Great Elder was sent flying, blood spilling from his mouth, yet he dared not show the slightest anger, hurriedly saying, “It’s my fault!
Your Excellencies, please calm your wrath!”
“Uncle Ning, the Great Elder is getting on in years and has beco muddleheaded, please don’t be angry,” Zhao Yulong quickly stepped forward, trying to smooth things over.
The middle-aged Ning snorted coldly, and said indifferently, “Don’t let there be another ti.”
At this mont, everyone’s hearts finally relaxed.
Ye Xuan watched with a cold eye, his expression indifferent.
These Elders usually held themselves above others, but now they groveled like dogs, seeking pity, truly laughable.
“Nephew, isn’t your father the Saint Master of Luotian Sacred Land?
How co you joined Emperor Immortal Sect?” the middle-aged Ning inquired, gazing at Zhao Yulong curiously while holding a teacup.
“Uncle Ning doesn’t know, I only ca to Emperor Immortal Sect to handle so matters, I’m not a part of the sect,” Zhao Yulong replied respectfully.
“I see,” Ning Zhengtian nodded, sipped his tea, then turned to Elder Zhao, “This ti, we need to take over Immortal Cloud Mine, your sect should prepare for the handover, as the Immortal Cloud Mine will no longer belong to you.”
Hearing this, Elder Zhao and the others all showed bitter faces, once again turning their eyes to Zhao Yulong.
In the face of Ning Zhengtian, they couldn’t even speak up.
Their only hope was Zhao Yulong.
Zhao Yulong was secretly pleased, yet he maintained a calm exterior, smiling and saying, “Uncle Ning, is there any way this matter could be discussed?”
“The Immortal Cloud Mine is the lifeline of Emperor Immortal Sect.
If it’s gone, the foundation of Emperor Immortal Sect would be gone too.
Could Uncle Ning perhaps consider an alternative condition?”
Zhao Yulong looked at Ning Zhengtian with a face full of hope.
Even though he had been confident before, now that he was truly facing Ning Zhengtian, he felt uneasy.
Everyone else also looked at Ning Zhengtian with hopeful faces.
At this mont, Ning Zhengtian also furrowed his brows and after a long silence, he finally shook his head.
“I’m afraid that’s not possible!”
“What?!”
As soon as Ning Zhengtian uttered these words, everyone from Emperor Immortal Sect was stunned.
Zhao Yulong thought a few kind words would suffice, what was happening?
“Why?!” Zhao Yulong asked reflexively.
“Hmm?” Ning Zhengtian raised his eyes to look at Zhao Yulong, a flash of cold light passing through his eyes.
Realizing he had misspoken, Zhao Yulong quickly added, “Uncle Ning, please consider it.
If the Immortal Cloud Mine is gone, Emperor Immortal Sect will be gone, Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect won’t be able to collect resources every three years either!”
“If it’s gone, then it’s gone!”
With a stern voice, the white-robed youth spoke indifferently, his voice like thunder.
“Is a re Emperor Immortal Sect really in a position to threaten the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect?”
“We dare not!”
As these words were uttered, everyone knelt to the ground, sweating profusely and turning pale!
The whole place fell into a deathly silence!
Zhao Yulong shivered uncontrollably, filled with fear and unease!
He never expected that the white-robed youth would get this angry!
And in the presence of everyone’s frightened gazes, the white-robed youth spoke again.
“Not taking the Immortal Cloud Mine is also not impossible.”
Suddenly, everyone was overjoyed!
“Thank you, my lord!”
In an instant, everyone bowed down collectively once more!
But before anyone could say more, the white-robed youth spoke again.
“I’ve heard that Emperor Immortal Sect has a good dicine Field.
Since we’re not taking the Immortal Cloud Mine, let’s take that dicine Field instead.”
“dicine…dicine Field?!”
The Great Elder was instantly dumbfounded, his face turning as ugly as a pig’s liver!
Besides the Immortal Cloud Mine, the dicine Field was the other lifeblood of Emperor Immortal Sect!
Not taking the Immortal Cloud Mine but taking the dicine Field instead?
What was the difference?
“Elder!
The dicine Field is also a lifeblood asset of our Emperor Immortal Sect.
If we lose it, I fear our sect won’t last a year!” the Great Elder hurriedly said.
Yet upon hearing this, the expression of the white-robed youth changed instantly.
“Immortal Cloud Mine is a lifeblood asset, dicine Field is a lifeblood asset, how many lifeblood assets does your Emperor Immortal Sect have?”
“Is it that if I ask you for a table and chairs, you’re also going to tell
that they’re a lifeblood asset of your Emperor Immortal Sect?”
“Is it that your Emperor Immortal Sect doesn’t take my Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect seriously, or are you…
playing ?”
“No disrespect intended!”
In a flash, the face of the Great Elder turned utterly grim, and he knelt on the ground, trembling all over, unable to speak!
Under the trendous oppressive force, he dared not look up!
Observing the Great Elder, the white-robed youth let out a cold snort once again.
“The dicine Field, I’m taking it.”
“Additionally, I’ve heard your sect’s Holy Daughter has awakened her Divine Body?
Let her co out and see.”
That statent imdiately caused a great change in the expressions of everyone from the Emperor Immortal Sect!
The Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect, they actually want Zhou Youwei too?
Zhao Yulong’s face turned deathly pale, filled with imnse regret.
Yet, at this mont, he didn’t dare speak a single word!
How powerful was the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect?
How could he compare?
But just then, a chilling voice suddenly rang out.
“What do you want with my wife?”
The white-robed youth looked in the direction of the voice, his tone also turned colder as he looked at Ye Xuan.
“The Holy Daughter is your wife?”
“Ye Xuan, don’t spout nonsense!” Jiang Jing’s face changed slightly.
“My lord, there’s no need to attend to this person, he is but a fool,” Elder Zhao quickly said.
Unfortunately, the white-robed youth was unmoved!
Boom!
A terrifying Sword Intent erupted from the white-robed youth, instantly causing everyone present to be unable to raise their heads.
“I wasn’t asking you all!”
With one phrase, he forced everyone to lower their heads, silent as cicadas in winter!
The dense murderous intent was terrifying!
At that mont, the white-robed youth’s gaze landed on Ye Xuan.
“Reach Profound Ninth Layer, Mortal Body spirit, Divine Gate unopened, do you also deem yourself worthy of being the husband to the Holy Daughter?”
“So what if I am?” Ye Xuan’s expression did not change as he stared at the white-robed youth, a faint glimr of light flashing in his dark pupils.
“Mister…” Wu Jingshan was on high alert.
The power of the white-robed youth seed unfathomable, and even Wu Jingshan felt an endless pressure.
“So what?” the white-robed youth laughed, “A person with an awakened Divine Body should not linger here!
I’ve co to take her away.”
“If she is not your wife, then let it be.”
“If she was in the past.”
As he spoke, the corners of the white-robed youth’s mouth suddenly curled slightly, and a hint of disdain flashed in his eyes.
“From today onwards, she is not!”
At these words, everyone’s face significantly changed!
Zhao Yulong looked to Ning Zhengtian, a tide of bitterness rising in his heart.
He could see that even Ning Zhengtian did not dare to show disrespect to the white-robed youth!
The words spoken by the white-robed youth left no room for negotiation!
This…
was unquestionable!
But at that mont, Ye Xuan, who had been silent all this ti, spoke up again.
“Scram!”
“What did you say?” The face of the white-robed youth darkened!
In all these years, nobody had dared speak to him like that!
Yet when he looked up, he saw that Ye Xuan was holding a black Ancient Order in his hand, not knowing when he had taken it out.
On the front and back of the black Ancient Order, a single character was etched.
Heaven!
Suppressing!
And Ye Xuan once again spoke with a cold voice.
“Don’t understand human speech?”
“I said, scram!”
