Chapter 575 Space Rift
Chapter 575 Space Rift
Wangyouzi paused, slowly raised his head, and after looking at Li Yuanzhen, who had a casual smile on his face, for a second, he immediately began to explain with a wry smile.
"Seniors, I am just a cultivator who came to Qingyuan Sect to assist. Now that the crisis has been resolved, I will take my leave and not disturb you any more. Haha..."
Li Yuanzhen raised his hand and held down Wangyouzi who wanted to lower his head and slip away.
"I'm quite interested in your natal spirit. How about giving away a wisp of your soul, my friend?"
Wangyouzi's eyelids twitched.
What he said is that he is also interested in Chiyue's head. Can Chiyue give it to him?
Wangyouzi looked towards Hanxuzi for help, only to see Hanxuzi sigh slightly, take a step forward, pat his shoulder, and speak in a deep voice: "She didn't even let me, the ancestor, go. Why are you struggling? Brother Wangyou, you can't beat a Divine Transformation cultivator."
"What do you mean, who..." Wangyouzi looked at Hanxuzi with a puzzled expression: "Wait, what do you mean by that? Do you know the leader of the Yuling Sect that Chiyue mentioned?"
The Soul Controlling Sect gathers the souls of cultivators from all over the world. Wherever they go, all the cultivators surrender their souls and turn against them. Ordinary low-level cultivators are unaware of this, but well-informed Nascent Soul cultivators like Wangyouzi know it, so he turned around and fled for his life in panic after hearing the name "Soul Controlling Sect". What he feared came true, as he was targeted by the Soul Controlling Sect!
But Wangyouzi hadn't expected that the notorious Yuling Sect's leader was actually someone he knew. Apparently, he was also familiar with Old Man Hanxu! Who was this person...?
"Alas." Hanxuzi sighed again: "Brother Wangyou, I, Hanxuzi, will always remember your kindness in helping Qingyuan Sect... But I can't help you with this matter..."
"Tell me, who is this person!" Wangyouzi suddenly became anxious.
"The sect leader's surname is Bai Minglan. My friend Wangyou, now that you know the sect leader's secret, it is even more impossible for me to let you leave safely today." Li Yuanzhen spoke in a deep voice. As he spoke, he raised his hand and drew a barrier around Qingyuan Sect, imprisoning all the cultivators who tried to escape within the sect. Several Jindan elders who stepped out of the barrier were also picked up back by the big hands of the Shenhua cultivators.
"Bai...wait, it's Xue'er's master! She's actually the leader of the Yuling Sect!" Wangyouzi was shocked. The image of a certain righteous leader flashed through his mind, and his scalp suddenly felt numb: "Could Xue'er's soul also..."
"Anyone who follows Bai Lan will lose a bit of their soul to some extent." Han Xuzi has seen through everything.
Wangyouzi's face darkened again, and his gaze swept over the two great masters Li Yuanzhen and Chiyue. After hesitating for a moment, his expression suddenly became flattering: "Two seniors, this matter concerns the life and property of the cultivators. It is of great importance. Why not allow me to consider it again..."
As he spoke, Wangyouzi's fingertips secretly touched the storage bag on his waist. After a flash of inspiration, he sent out a sound transmission note for help.
Wangyouzi's movements were covert, but he was unable to escape Li Yuanzhen's awareness. Or perhaps she had anticipated that Wangyouzi would seek help in a critical moment, and instead condoned his behavior, watching him struggle with a smile and letting him use every possible means of escape.
"Are you asking Wu Chenzi for help? It doesn't matter, I'll wait for her here." Li Yuanzhen looked neither angry nor afraid.
After hearing the three words "Wu Chenzi", Wang Youzi's face changed and he suddenly looked up at Li Yuanzhen: "How did you know?"
Of course, it was the information told to her by the omnipotent leader. If Bai Lan had not explained it in advance, Li Yuanzhen would not have known that Wuchenzi, the master behind Wanbao Tower, and Wangyouzi, the master behind the black market, had a close relationship. The two were close friends, one earning spirit stones from the white world, and the other earning spirit stones from the black world.
Wu Chenzi naturally would not sit idly by if he wanted to collect Wang Youzi's soul. Bai Lan had already considered the relationship between the two and had prepared countermeasures. He also dug a pit and waited for Wu Chenzi to jump into it. Li Yuanzhen was waiting for Wu Chenzi.
Ignoring Wangyouzi's changing expression, Li Yuanzhen turned to look at Hanxuzi and handed him a storage bag. "The storage bag contains the cultivation resources that the Sect Master gave to the Qingyuan Sect cultivators. The Sect Master said that as long as the Qingyuan Sect cultivators are willing to hand over their souls, all resources will be given preferential treatment."
Hanxuzi took the storage bag in silence and looked at Lingxiao Zhenjun. They both saw the helplessness in each other's eyes, as if it was the feeling of being stabbed by Bai Lan and then she gave you a million spirit stones.
Fu Guang, who was completely unaware of this, was completely bewildered. Seeing that the situation was not right, she finally realized and said, "Didn't Senior Wan Ze say that the Yuling Sect is still a third-rate sect and asked me to take good care of it... Wait, do I have to hand over a wisp of my soul too?"
Li Yuanzhen nodded with a smile: "Of course."
"No, don't even think about it!" Fu Guang's face changed and he suddenly wanted to retreat, but was pinned to the spot by Li Yuanzhen's divine power.
"Master Fuguang..." Li Yuanzhen smiled, then spoke in a voice transmission, "Should I still call you the Divine Beast Xuanwu? The Sect Master has already told me that you are not a human cultivator, but the Divine Beast Xuanwu that once served Master Fuguang. Master Fuguang's life and death are unknown, and you were ordered by her to guard the sect for her. I'm right."
True Lord Fu Guang is a genius of the Qingyuan Sect and the Nascent Soul cultivator who has the greatest hope of advancing to the Divine Transformation stage. When she appears in the world as Fu Guang, even though she has been in seclusion for many years and has never taken any action, people will still covet her and the mythical beast Xuanwu behind her, and will also be more wary of the Qingyuan Sect.
With one more Nascent Soul cultivator, the Qingyuan Sect would have more say among the five righteous sects, so the fact that Fu Guang was missing naturally could not be known to outsiders.
The secret he had kept for many years was revealed in one sentence. Fake Fu Guang immediately struggled: "How did you know this! Even Senior Wan Ze doesn't know this!"
Because Bai Lan knows everything.
"Then where is the real Master Fuguang now?" The matter of collecting souls cannot allow any fish to slip through the net.
Fake Fuguang whispered: "...I don't know."
If Bai Lan were here, she would definitely be able to tell what the turtle in front of her was thinking with just a glance. Unfortunately, she is not here now, so interrogating it would be much more troublesome.
Seeing Li Yuanzhen frowning, as if thinking about threatening him, Jia Fuguang sighed and spoke in a deep voice.
"I truly don't know her whereabouts. Many years ago, I accompanied her to the Hulong Grassland, and along the way, we stumbled upon a battle between two Divine Transformation cultivators. The power of their battle was so devastating that it could destroy the heavens and the earth. Space rifts were created all around us by the battle, and the resulting heavenly tribulations struck us one after another. In the chaos, Fu Guang was unable to escape in time and was instead sucked into the rifts."
"Oh?" Li Yuanzhen fell into deep thought.
"I originally thought she was dead, but I never imagined that the spiritual connection between her and me has not been severed. She must still be alive, but she must be trapped in that rift and unable to escape..."
