Chapter 191 Why Are You Here?
Chapter 191 Why Are You Here?
The Truth-Telling Gu had lost its effect, but Ye Qianqian's words "yes" still reached everyone's ears.
Therefore, there is a way to save everyone in the cultivation world, but Ye Qianqian concealed the truth, or rather, the Heavenly Dao was unwilling to reveal the truth.
Xie Wanning turned her head and said solemnly, "Look, even the goddess said there are other ways to save the cultivation world, why should we rely on me alone?"
"You alone are trading your life for the lives of everyone in the world. This is Heaven's decree, and you cannot disobey it, nor can we," Zhuge Kuang said, stroking his beard. As the head of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion, he naturally believed most strongly in destiny.
"If I die and the earthquake occurs again, who will you sacrifice? If everyone becomes a victim and everyone else just stands by and watches, is that really right?" Xie Wanning said painfully.
"What other way is there? You are the best way right now." Liu Qingci, the leader of Bibo Pool, said, "We have already tried the sealing formation, but it is impossible to seal the power of chaos."
"If the earth fissures are not stopped, all the spirit beasts in the cultivation world will be corrupted and turned into demonic beasts," said Xiao Zheng, the valley master of Ten Thousand Beasts Valley, with a troubled expression.
"The power of chaos is extremely harmful to cultivators, and those corrupted by it are difficult to heal with medical skills," said Tang Zhang, the Valley Master of Hundred Herbs Valley, from the side.
……
The sect leaders, as high-ranking cultivators in the cultivation world, tried various methods, but to no avail. All eyes were on Xie Wanning; they all wanted to sacrifice her to save the cultivation world.
"No! Why must we sacrifice Sister Wan Ning? As the sect leader, are you only capable of forcing a disciple to die?" Tian Ruochun stood in front of Xie Wan Ning. She hadn't stopped Xie Wan Ning from being killed by Yan Ze before, and she would never allow the same thing to happen again.
"Xiao Tian." Xie Wan Ning felt a pang of emotion. She turned to look at Ye Qian Qian and pressed her for an answer: "What method is there to stop the overflow of chaotic power?"
"There is no way."
"Ye Qianqian, as a goddess, are you going to lie?" Xie Wanning's face flushed with anger. The Truth Gu wouldn't lie, but people are the best at lying.
“Heaven’s will is not in vain, the goddess is deceiving the world, and the cultivators are heartless. I think this is the destruction of the cultivation world,” Xie Wanning said sarcastically, her eyes reddening slightly.
She desperately wanted to live, even though she had just woken up from a deep sleep and barely escaped death. But why was everyone forcing her to sacrifice herself?
She knew that everyone else also wanted to live. Only one of them could survive—her or the entire cultivation world. She only hated why she was the one chosen by Heaven, and why her fate was so arbitrarily controlled by Heaven.
"Wan Ning, I won't let anyone hurt you. Let's escape," Tian Ruochun said with a smile, holding Xie Wan Ning's hand as if afraid of losing each other again.
Xie Wanning sighed helplessly.
There was no escape. The Heavenly Mystery Pavilion's divination techniques, the Azure Wave Court's tracking array, and the Ten Thousand Beasts Valley's hunting dogs—how could two people possibly escape the full-scale pursuit of the eight major sects? Not to mention that everyone now saw her as their only lifeline. Once Xie Wanning stepped into the Chaos Sea, there was no turning back. She had only come to learn the truth.
"Xiao Tian, don't be willful. Go back to Qingyun Sect. That's where you should be. It will be very dangerous for you if you follow me," Xie Wanning advised.
But Tian Ruochun's face darkened. She gripped Xie Wanning's hand tightly and said in a hoarse voice, "Why do you always choose to sacrifice yourself to protect others? Is it worth it?"
Xie Wanning paused slightly, but nodded: "It's worth it for you."
Tian Ruochun was speechless for a moment. She shielded Xie Wanning behind her and set up a defensive magic array. She would not abandon Sister Wanning; she would stand with Sister Wanning on the same side.
Seeing Tian Ruochun's resolute appearance, Xie Wanning felt a glimmer of hope.
"Then let's fight our way out!" Xie Wanning held the Luoze Sword in her hand, with the Guichen Sword beside her, ready to fight at any moment.
"Wan Ning, don't make the same mistake again," Yan Ze rebuked angrily.
"Ice Break!" Countless ice spikes appeared around Xie Wanning, flying in all directions.
"Qingyun, set up the formation!" An attack formation appeared beneath Tian Ruochun's feet, blasting away the disciples who tried to approach.
Xie Wanning took out a teleportation talisman, intending to leave with Tian Ruochun, but her hand was entangled by a golden thread.
"Senior Sister, don't even think about escaping!" Ye Qianqian held the other end of the golden thread, preventing Xie Wanning from teleporting away.
Luo Ze Sword and Gui Chen Sword struck the golden thread together, but the thread remained unchanged. This golden thread was formed from divine power, and unless Ye Qianqian loosened it herself, there was no way to untie it.
Seeing that disciples from other sects were rushing forward, trying to capture Xie Wanning.
Suddenly, a dense rain of arrows appeared in the sky, instantly interrupting the sect disciples' actions.
"You dare touch my people!" Qingqiu Yu appeared high in the sky, her eyes flashing with purple light, and many disciples were immobilized in place.
Qingqiu Yu picked up the bow and fired ten arrows at Ye Qianqian.
"Demon Emperor, your opponent is me!" Yan Ze and Song Huai'an stood in front of Ye Qianqian, the master and disciple holding swords, ready to rush forward.
Suddenly, four figures appeared behind Qingqiu Yu, their immense pressure pressing down on the sect leader and disciples.
They are actually the Four Divine Beasts!
The moment the four divine beasts appeared, Xie Wanning felt a tremor in her consciousness space. She had actually signed a contract with the four divine beasts! When did this happen?!
With a flap of its wings, the Vermilion Bird's wind blades severed the golden threads.
Qingqiu Yu cast a glance at Xie Wanning, signaling her to run quickly.
Xie Wan Ning understood immediately. She took out a teleportation talisman and was about to leave when a crossbow bolt pierced the talisman.
"Xie Wanning, don't even think about running away!" Zhuge Kuang said, not allowing anyone to defy the decisions of Heaven.
Tian Ruochun tried to set up a teleportation array, but Liu Qingci neutralized it.
Xie Wanning pulled Tian Ruochun to rush out of the crowd, but they were blocked by a huge polar bear.
"Xie Wanning, you can't leave!" Xiao Zheng, the Valley Master of Ten Thousand Beasts Valley, commanded the spirit beasts to block Xie Wanning. Meanwhile, a ninth-grade stasis talisman appeared around Xie Wanning and Tian Ruochun, instantly freezing them in place.
"I'm so sorry, your teacher!"
Yan Ze thrust the Purple Lightning Sword in his hand toward Xie Wan Ning's heart. How was this scene different from the scene in Qingyun Palace five years ago?
"Bang!"
A massive ice wall appeared before Xie Wanning. Lin Xuanjin, holding the Xuanbing Sword, sneered, "Yan Ze, what are you going to do to my eldest disciple? Do you think I'm just a figurehead?"
"Master, what brings you here?" Xie Wanning exclaimed in surprise.
"As your teacher, I won't let you face everything alone. I will definitely protect you."
Meng Qingyue and Mu Zhi removed the immobilization charms from Xie Wanning and Tian Ruochun.
"Big sister, how are you?"
"Senior Sister, are you alright?"
Qi Shaozhuo stepped forward to check Xie Wanning and Tian Ruochun's injuries and found no obvious marks. He breathed a sigh of relief: "Senior Sister and Senior Sister Tian are both fine."
"Why are you all here too?" Xie Wanning asked with a frown and concern.
Mu Ruo stepped forward: "Senior Sister, really! You didn't tell us about something so important. Our Twilight Snow Sect is a unified entity; how could we let Senior Sister face all of this alone!"
Meng Qingyue drew his sword, and he and Lin Xuanjin fought side by side, defeating those who tried to harm Xie Wanning.
Mu Ruo held the zither, and Mu Zhi picked up the xiao (vertical flute). Their music made a large group of disciples cover their ears and unable to move.
Xie Wanning held the Luoze Sword, its blade flashing, while Tian Ruochun set up an array to cover her. Qingqiu Yu, accompanied by the four divine beasts, roamed freely, causing the once orderly sect disciples to become flustered and chaotic.
Sudden.
"All beings, heed my command! Kneel!"
A majestic voice rang out, Ye Qianqian's golden eyes flashed, golden butterflies danced around her, and the golden feather mark on her forehead was particularly striking. Golden patterns appeared on her face, and her aura was overwhelmingly imposing.
This is not Ye Qianqian, this is the Heavenly Dao of Fusang!
