All of them acted at the same time, at once, a layer of gold shield protected everyone inside it, they then dragged the three that had collapsed into the defense array, only then did they look more relieved from the pain.
Everyone lifted their heads and looked up at the sky in the terror. They then realized that it was full of spirit swords, densely lining the entire sky. Every one carried sword qi that made oneâs blood run cold and could drop down anytime. Right in the middle, a man could vaguely be seen riding on a sword.
Yu Luan paled instantly, exceptionally nervous at heart. This was a sword cultivator! And it was a sword cultivator that could subdue a Soul Formation cultivator, that means he was also in the Soul Formation stage. But he did not know why he was suddenly striking at them, hence he could only bite the bullet and shouted, âMay I know which expert has arrived at my Gui Yi Sect?â
Lonemoon also glanced at Chef in the air who had summoned a sword array, the corner of his mouth twitched instantly and he scolded through a voice transmission, âWhat are the two of you doing? I said to show off, not wipe out the sect!â Could they bring out some acting skills like they do when they fool him?
Chef stiffened. âUm, habit!â He was familiar with fighting, but showing off was evidently in Father Niuâs line of business, it was another profession!
Hence, the spells in his hand changed, at once all the spirit swords in the sky started to gather and formed an eight huge white sword spirits. They flew in eight different directions, then with several rumbles, landed around Gui Yi Sect, forming an enormous array formation. In moments a layer of white light flashed and covered the entire Gui Yi Sect, in the next second, it gradually lightened and disappeared with the eight huge swords.
Since he accidentally ruined a Protective Mountain Array, heâll just compensate them.
Below, everyone who was on guard as if they were facing a formidable enemy suddenly faltered, what was going on? Earlier on, he acted like he was here to wreck the place, now, not only had he retracted the sword qi, he even set up an even more powerful Protective Mountain Array for them.
Everyone was dumbfounded, but seeing that the other party seemed like he had no intention of attacking, they involuntarily sighed in relief deep down and curiously looked up into the sky.
A while later, they saw a man descending on a sword, dressed in blue, his body radiating a faint Sword Qi, the spirit qi surrounding him was already that of late stage Soul Formation. His handsome and aloof face looked likeâhe was here to give out money.
âWhy did you transform into Boss Lanâs appearance?â The corner of Lonemoonâs mouth twitched. It gave him a scare, he thought that Boss Lan had come to the lower realm with Radish.
âMaster told me to change my appearance, I couldnât think of any others so I changed in someone familiar.â Chef sent through voice transmission, I was afraid of being recognized by the invader.
âSomeone familiar, why didnât you pick Fatty but Boss Lan?â
âFatty is too short, he doesnât look like one!â Yi Qing was bold and justified.
ââŚâ Only a fool would believe you, you just mind that heâs fat, donât you?
âGreetings Supremacy!â Yu Luan went forward, nervous and fidgety and bowed with cupped fists. âPardon my ignorance, may I ask which sect Supremacy is from?â
âItinerant cultivator!â
âItinerant cultivator!â Yu Luan was even more surprised, when was there such an ace sword cultivator amongst the itinerant cultivator. âThen why did Supremacy come to our Sect?â
âNo reason!â Yi Qing answered subconsciously.
ââŚâ Yu Luan was stumped, then why did you scare people for nothing?
âChef, find a reason to stay!â Lonemoon sent through a voice transmission, this was a ready-made chance, donât dream of slacking anymore.
âWell, there is a trivial matter!â Yi Qingâs tuned changed as he turned and looked towards Zuo Shuming at the side.
Zuo Shuming had yet to return to his senses from that shocking Sword Qi earlier, he gazed at Chef with shock, agitation, yearning and disbelief. Turns out that this is a sword cultivator! He had chosen correctly, turns sword cultivators can be this powerful, able to subdue cultivators of the same phase simply using Sword Qi.
âMay I know whatâs the matter? Is there anywhere that my Gui Yi Sect can be of help?â Yu Luan said with great respect, a Soul Formation sword cultivator was equivalent to a Traveling immortal, no sect would easily offend such a cultivator, instead, they ought to do their best to be on friendly terms with him, whatâs more, he was in the late stage of Soul Formation!
Chef stiffened for a moment, it was so difficult to make up excuses and whatnot, he wasnât Father Niu, what to do what to do? He hated making up stories and all. He thought for a moment and still decided to use a ready-made one.
âOh dear!â With a stiff face, he suddenly let out an exceedingly exaggerated and fake exclamation as he pointed to Zuo Shuming who was still in a daze, âIsnât this the fellow Daoist Zuo who borrowed two pieces of spirit stones from me? Long time no see! Do you have money to pay me back now?â
Yu Luan: ââŚâ
Everyone: ââŚâ
What the hell? Chasing all the way here for two pieces of spirit stones, you must be kidding me!
( ĚâłĚ;)
Lonemoon: ââŚâ
This definitely isnât the son that he taught! Was it too late to cut off all ties now?
âAh! Is that so?â Yet Zuo Shuming really subconsciously brought out four pieces of spirit stones and handed them over. âThank you fellow Daoist!â
âYouâre welcome!â
Wait! Why does this scene feel so familiar?
Zuo Shumingâs hand froze, he could not help but shoot his mouth off and asked, âMay I know what is Supremacyâs Dao name?â
âYi Qing!â
ââŚâ
Again!
Zuo Shuming only felt the corner of his mouth twitched, his eyes instinctively searched around before he found a familiar figure crunching on a fruit behind Yi Qing.
âHey! Two bucks!â Shen Ying greeted with a wave.
ââŚâ And⌠and it really was for real!
He could not help but turn and looked towards the person beside him, Brother Lonemoon, are such methods of asking for travel expenses once you appear a tradition of your people?
âEh, this fellow DaoistâŚâ Yi Qing turned towards Lonemoon and continued making up his excuse in all seriousness. âArenât you the one who loanedâŚâ
âI dare you to try saying that I owe you money?â Before he could finish, Lonemoon directly retorted through a voice transmission.
Yi Qing froze, subconsciously grabbing his ingredients storage bag, the words that came out next took a forceful turn. âLoaned⌠to, me, a lot of spirit stones, Fellow Daoist Lonemoon?â Alright, he really didnât remember how much food allowance Father Niu had given him.
âSupremacy Yi Qing, long time no see!â Lonemoon suppressed the restlessness at the bottom of his heart before smiling and continuing the conversation that the other party had messily made up. He turned towards Gui Yi Sectâs Sect Master Yu Luan. âReporting to Sect Master, before I joined Gui Yi Sect, I was lucky enough to run into Supremacy Yi Qing. He did not have spirit stones with him them so I did him a small favor, I didnât think I would have another chance to meet him again.â
He then turned to Zuo Shuming. âTurns out Brother Zuo was also acquainted with Supremacy before you joined the sect?â
âAh?!â Zuo Shuming faltered and nodded subconsciously. âYes!â
âThen weâre really fated!â He smiled. âSupremacy is really a considerate good person, turns out you had ten thousand spirit stones that I lend you on your mind all this time and specially came all the way to Gui Yi Sect to return them.â He specially emphasized on the words âten thousandâ and stretched out his hand. Donât even know how to be a show off, what use do I have raising you two, pay up your living expenses!
