On the 22nd of the third month.
The heavily injured Gu Yan seemed to have bad luck, yet it was not bad either.
He was said to have bad luck because while his injuries did not heal completely, he had been noticed by Donghuang Yinxuan's group and they were on a chase against him.
However he was said to have no bad luck either because during this pursuit process, he had been saved by Yea Chen and Yu Jiuhui who had passed by.
However, his luck could not be said to be good since he was saved by two Dao Institute disciples, so it could only be said to be not bad.
As they watched this scene, many cultivators in the outside world were stunned.
It was common knowledge that the Dao Institute had always maintained an impartial stance among the five extreme Imperial Regions. No matter whether it was heading towards the Oracle Mountain, the Dao Nuwa Palace, the Sovereign Sect, or the Divine Institute, the Dao Institute had always adopted a strategy of not helping anyone.
Under such circumstances, Yea Chen and Yu Jiuhui who were extremely influential disciples of the Dao Institute suddenly saved the severely injured Mountain Oracle disciple, Gu Yan, the Donghuang Yinxuan. So, everyone could not help but have doubts because of this.
What does this mean?
Could it be that the Dao Institute had changed its attitude and was getting closer to Oracle Mountain?
At this moment, even the expressions of Lei Fu and Chi Song’zi could not help but become gloomy as they watched this scene, and a cold wisp emerged from their eyes.
“Ha ha! I never expected that after Chen Xi joined Kong Youran to eliminate so many disciples from your Dao Institute, he said, the disciples of your Dao Institute will truly be kind enough to take the initiative to save an Oracle Mountain disciple. It was incredible. ” Chi Song’zi laughed coldly, and her voice echoed in the hall.
In fact, it was not only Chi Song’zi and Lei Fu, even Wen Ting and Yu Zhen had never imagined that such a scene would actually happen, so they could not help but become very confused in their hearts.
Huai Kong’zi had returned to Convergence Hall a few days ago. At this moment, he was seated in the central seat of the host, and only Imperial Emperor Ying Qin was not in the hall anymore.
In other words, since Imperial Emperor Ying Qin had left with Huai Kong’zi the other day, he seemed to have disappeared and never appeared again.
However, this clearly did not cause the others in the hall to be alarmed at all.
At this moment, when Huai Kong’zi heard the words Chi Song’zi who carried a mocking and wondering tone, he seemed to be somewhat calm.
He only pondered deeply for a moment before saying, “This is just the actions of two little people, and it does not represent the attitude of my Dao Institute. Perhaps they could not bear to see an esteemed opponent like Gu Yan being expelled from the second round of the Dao Discussion.
Chi Song’zi laughed even colder when she heard this, and she chuckled. “I hope this is as Fellow Daoist said, otherwise, it will cause us great disappointment.”
His voice carried a blob of threatening tone.
Huai Kong’zi looked as if he did not see this at all, and he smiled and said, “Daoist Partners can feel comfortable.”
Chi Song’zi let out a cold snort and did not continue.
Lei Fu, on the other hand, frowned, and he glanced at Huai Kong’zi while looking confused. He felt that ever since Huai Kong’zi returned to Converge Hall a few days ago, Huai Kong’zi's attitude had somewhat undergone some changes.
Not only Lei Fu, even Wen Ting and Yu Zhen also noticed him, but they were simply unable to determine exactly what Huai Kong’zi was thinking in his heart.
But in any case, Wen Ting still heaved a sigh of relief in his heart when he saw Gu Yan together being saved by Yu Jiuhui and Yea Chen.
Currently, only Chen Xi, Gu Yan, and Tu Meng were left from among the disciples of the Oracle Mountain. Thus, if an accident were to happen to Gu Yan, then the Oracle Mountain would suffer a crushing defeat at half-time.
…
On that very night, the moon shone brightly in the sky while the surrounding stars were rare.
Chen Xi sat cross-legged on the side of the ravine while a sea of clouds churned around him, and it was a calm and majestic scene beneath the night sky.
His expression became indifferent to the extremes and no trace of emotion could be seen there. He's like a clay statue.
Since he parted with Kong Youran until now, he was still unable to find any trace of information related to the other disciples of Oracle Mountain.
Even to the point that he had yet to meet a single opponent as well.
If only he himself were to participate in the Dao Discussion this time around, then he would naturally be very happy to deal with such a situation. At the very least, he obtained the Ancient Dao Engraved Cauldron and did not fight with his opponents to maintain his possession, so such a situation could not have been better.
Unfortunately, Chen Xi was not alone. He represented Oracle Mountain, and he had many other disciples participating in the Dao Discussion.
This meant that he could not just act on his own interests.
Luck Reversing Disk …. Sovereign Sect …. You'll all pay for this! Chen Xi muttered in her heart while her expression was completely indifferent, and piercing bones and cold light soared in the depths of her eyes.
Chen Xi took a deep breath before she stood up, and then she continued forward. However, right at this moment, he suddenly frowned.
“Eh!” At almost the same time, a surprised cry sounded from the distance.
However, when Chen Xi's gaze swept over the two of them, it instantly descended onto Yu Jiuhui's back.
There was someone carried on Yu Jiuhui's back. His clothes were dyed red with blood while his face was pale, and he looked extremely desperate.
However, Chen Xi instantly recognized him as Gu Yan!
In an instant, Chen Xi's gaze turned ice-cold to the extreme while clangs echoed as he unsheathed his sword. The killing intent at the tip of his sword swept out like crystal clear water to cover the heavens and earth as he aimed it at Yea Chen and Yu Jiuhui from afar.
“Let him down!” Each word was said sharply like a knife and filled with abundant killing intent. This expanse of heaven and earth lamented and was on the verge of collapse.
“How about I don't?” Ya Chen was stunned, and then he couldn't help but smile.
“Young Martial Ancestor Park?” Right at this moment, Gu Yan who was lying on Yu Jiuhui's back had raised his head, and his dim eyes suddenly surged with clumps of bright light as he looked at Chen Xi. But soon after, he realized that Chen Xi had misunderstood, and he spoke hurriedly. “Young Martial Ancestor's Uncle, you misunderstood. They were the ones who saved me. ”
“Why did you say that? I want to fight this guy. You're so boring. ” Yea Chen pursed her lips, and then she glanced at Yu Jiuhui.
Yu Jiuhui understood secretly, and he immediately placed Gu Yan off his back.
Chen Xi was stunned. He stared carefully at Yea Chen and Yu Jiuhui for a long time, and then glanced at Gu Yan who was walking towards him. In the end, he put away Banisher and hurriedly moved to Gu Yan.
Chen Xi helped Gu Yan down to sit on the rock at the side, and then he pulled out some medicinal pills and herbs before putting them into the mouth of the latter. Only then did he frown when he said, “What is all this?”
His voice carried a wisp of worry. According to his observation, Gu Yan's injuries were extremely severe, and they nearly injured Gu Yan's foundation. Moreover, the vital energy within Gu Yan's entire body was in chaos. At this moment, even medicinal pills and herbs were simply unable to directly relieve his injuries.
“When we met him, he was chased by Donghuang Yinxuan of the Divine Institute.” Ya Chen and Yu Jiuhui walked over as well.
“Divine Institute?” The coldness in Chen Xi's eyes grew.
“It's not a Divine Institute. I was heavily injured in the battle with the Leng Xinghun Sovereign Sect and the others. However, I was able to eliminate two of their disciples, so it was worth it. But I never imagined that my luck seemed to be a little bad, and I met Donghuang Yinxuan's group today. If Yea Chen and Yu Jiuhui have not helped, then I am afraid …. ” Gu Yan gasped for breath as he spoke, and it seemed like he was a little out of breath. He had not even finished speaking when cold sweat poured out from his forehead.
An unrivalled Divine Realm expert of the Universe realm had been reduced so far now, and even speaking was so exhausting for him. This clearly shows how severe the wound is.
“Enough. Rest for now and leave the rest to me. ” Chen Xi feels resentment and heartache. After he stopped Gu Yan from speaking, he looked at Yea Chen and Yu Jiuhui.
“Thank you...” Chen Xi took a deep breath before speaking.
Yea Chen smiled and said, “Are you very curious about why the two of us who are members of the Dao Institute will save him?”
Chen Xi nodded calmly. “Indeed. I just can't figure it out. Up until now, many disciples of the Dao Institute had been lost in my hands. “
“It doesn't matter.” Yea Chen shook his head while his expression became solemn. He said, “Because this is the Dao Discussion, and there will be victory and defeat. I'm not going to bring you enemies just because of that. “
Chen Xi's eyebrows shot up, and she glanced at Yea Chen with a slight surprise as she said, “Because of that, then why did you save Gu Yan?”
Ya Chen and Yu Jiuhui exchanged glances, and then she spoke honestly in the end. “I just hope that your Oracle Mountain does not consider the Dao Institute as an enemy.”
Chen Xi's eyes narrowed. “How is it?”
“Some have made a mistake, so there must be someone else to make up for that mistake. I just want to tell you that my Dao Institute has always held on to a fair and impartial attitude to hold this Dao Discussion. But I believe that many people never thought that this problem would develop in such a way. ” Yea Chen sighed lightly and said, “I hate schemes the most. No matter what reason it was done, such shady methods should not be used in the Dao Discussion. “
Chen Xi could sense that Yea Chen was telling the truth, and she even determined that Yea Chen might have known about something a long time ago. Thus, Yea Chen had used such a method to try and resolve Chen Xi's hostility towards the Dao Institute.
“Once an error has been made, just making amends is not enough. The appropriate price must be paid as well. If you can't achieve that, forgive me for not being able to forgive. ” Chen Xi was silent for a long time before she spoke.
Ya Chen did not think that Chen Xi's attitude was excessive. He pondered for a while before he nodded and said seriously, “I believe that Dao Institute will give you Oracle Mountain and Nuwa’s Dao Palace explanation.”
Chen Xi said, “Then I will wait and see.”
“Then it's done. We'll take our leave first. Chen Xi, no matter what happens, this Dao Discussion should continue, and I am really looking forward to the day I can fight with you. Maybe we'll be opponents by the time we meet next. ” Yea Chen smiled lightly, and then she put her hands behind her back as she turned around and left with Yu Jiuhui.
“Two of these people are not bad.” Chen Xi watched them leave, and then she pondered deeply for a long time before she finally shook her head. He stopped thinking about all this and looked at Gu Yan.
“Young Martial Ancestor Park, no need to worry, just leave me here. I'm not sorry even if I'm eliminated this time, but you have to endure to the end. ” Gu Yan sensed Chen Xi's gaze, and he opened his eyes while he forced a smile onto his ghastly pale face.
He was worried about being a burden to Chen Xi.
Chen Xi patted Gu Yan on the shoulder, and then ignored Gu Yan's objections as he carefully carried Gu Yan on his back. Afterwards, he said, “Be calm and recover. No one can get rid of you while I'm here. “
His voice was flat and calm, yet it exuded a powerful and unquestionable thread of power.
A wisp of unstoppable warmth suddenly burst out from Gu Yan's heart. He wanted to say something but hesitated, and then he did not say anything in the end.
This was an order from Young Martial Ancestor Uncle, and he would not forget it for the rest of his life.
