Chapter 514 This was at the behest of my grandmaster.
"nonsense!"
After Xue Lan finished explaining things to Xue Tong, she came to her senses and heard the powerful figure's four resounding words.
The voice seemed to be infused with spiritual energy, making it exceptionally deep and resonant.
The vibrations made Xue Lan's ears feel a little uncomfortable.
Xue Lan raised her hand and rubbed her ear, unable to help but mentally complain:
"Can't you learn to care for a mere blind person like me?"
What if I go deaf again?
The only one present who knew what Xue Lan was thinking twitched at the corner of his mouth.
"If you're deaf and blind, go beg on the streets!"
Xue Lan was caught off guard by her inner demons, and her smile vanished as she spoke to the old man:
"What are you saying, senior? What nonsense are you spouting?"
The old man in black looked at Xue Lan, his anger rising:
"The Yuanming Realm is divided into two realms, an upper and a lower realm. This is the law of heaven and earth. The upper realm connects to the Nine Heavens Demon Realm and confronts the Demon Lord directly, while the lower realm resists the demonic tide and protects itself!"
"How dare you, a mere child, make such a decision?"
After saying these words, the old man turned to look at Dao Xuanzi:
"She is young and ignorant, and blind. Fellow Daoist Dao Xuanzi indulges her in talking nonsense. Could it be that she is blind in heart?"
Upon hearing this, Xue Lan's expression grew even colder.
The woman took a few slow steps toward the old man and spoke before Dao Xuanzi could speak:
"Fellow Daoist Dao Xuanzi is not qualified to interfere in this matter!"
The woman stood ramrod straight and raised her hand in a gesture of respect to her side.
"This matter was instructed by my grandmaster who ascended to the upper realm long ago. Dao Xuanzi is not qualified to interfere!"
Upon hearing this, not only the old man, but also Dao Xuanzi and the others behind Xue Lan were stunned.
Who?
Dao Xuanzi doubted his own ears.
Which grandmaster?
Of all the people from the Xuanhuang Sect who have ascended to the Upper Realm in the past three thousand years, there is only one—
Weihe Daojun.
The way people around Xue Lan looked at her changed.
If it was indeed that Daoist Weihe who instructed Xue Lan to do this, then they should think about it carefully.
Tu Shan Yan, who had been observing Xue Lan's inner demons from afar, raised a hand to tidy her disheveled hair, her voice gentle and melodious:
"Fellow Daoists, have you thought it through? That one is..."
"A sword fanatic of unparalleled talent, a righteous female immortal who kills without blinking an eye!"
With just one sentence, Tu Shanyan silenced all the other people and demons who were itching to jump out and criticize Xue Lan, keeping them all seated.
That's Weihe Daojun.
Ling Yuanzi's master was a sword fanatic just like him, a righteous female immortal whose sword always drew blood. Back then, she ascended to immortality in the desolate region and killed six demon lords with a single sword strike.
Xue Lan looked at the actions and expressions of the people around her and expressed that she was very satisfied.
Let's talk this out. Even if I'm young, you can't all just rush up and start yelling at me, can you?
If Dao Xuanzi knew what Xue Lan was thinking, the old man would definitely come up and pull her ear.
Dao Xuanzi: Insulting you?
If this weren't Xuanhuang Sect territory, and your master weren't Ling Yuanzi, beating you would be too lenient!
Unfortunately, Xue Lan, who was focused on being a persuader, was unaware of what her senior master was thinking.
The woman was now calmly looking at the old man in black who had just questioned her:
"Does Senior have any further questions? If not, I will continue."
The old man in black looked at Xue Lan, his tone softening:
"You say it was Wei He Daojun who instructed you, but do you have any evidence?"
Xue Lan smiled gently, her expression pleased.
She actually has that!
When Xue Lan accidentally entered the spacetime turbulence in the Wan Gong Fang, she saw the sword marks left by Wei He Dao Jun under the Tian Qi Pillar, where her sword intent remained.
The old man in black heard Xue Lan's loud voice:
"Then please take a good look, senior!"
"Luring souls."
The soul-guided object flew out from Xue Lan's sleeve and was held in her hand:
"My grandmaster once taught me a sword technique for self-defense. I wonder if this senior can understand the essence of her swordsmanship?"
After saying this, Xue Lan held the Soul-Guiding Sword and thrust it towards the old man in black.
If Xue Lan's sword is like a shower of falling flowers, or light, white snowflakes, killing without a trace, all sword intent is concentrated at the tip of the sword. Its sharpness remains undiminished until it is used.
The sword of Weihe Daojun was like piercing ice, emanating a chilling aura. A lonely, icy sword intent coiled within the strike, rushing straight towards the black-clad elder, conveying a cold and deadly message:
When the sword is drawn, blood will surely be drawn!
After the murderous sword intent dissipated, the old man in black bowed slightly to Xue Lan:
"Master Xue, it was my rashness just now!"
"But it breaks down the barrier between the upper and lower realms..."
After stubbornly refusing to admit it for a while, the old man finally spoke his true feelings to Xue Lan:
“We old folks have lived for thousands of years, so naturally we are not afraid of those from the upper realms. But what about the children like you in our sects?”
"Let not the evil spirits remain unexterminated, lest discord arise again between the upper and lower realms!"
"What you said is incorrect, senior!"
Xue Lan lightly raised her hand and released the soul-guiding technique. The small sword transformed into a little girl dressed in brocade and floated beside her.
"If Yuanming Realm wants to expel evil spirits and live a peaceful and prosperous life, it cannot avoid the path of breaking through the boundary."
The woman took a few more steps forward, and with a wave of her hand, a huge scroll unfolded before everyone.
The painting depicts towering mountains, rushing rivers, human cities scattered across the plains, and immortal grottoes hidden among the mountains and rivers.
It was the painting "Yuanming Tu" that Xue Lan created when she interfered with the trials of the Ascension Assembly.
"Esteemed seniors, you must already have some understanding of the current situation in the Yuanming Realm."
"The mountains and rivers are in turmoil, the Heavenly Way is powerless, and the earth's veins are in disarray, yet the human spirit and the demon race's fortune are growing stronger!"
Xue Lan's greyish-white eyes, like glass, pierced the crowd, her voice carrying a hoarse, howling north wind:
"The behemoth is about to die, preparing for a desperate fight! Should we still hesitate and be afraid because of the discord between our left and right claws?"
The woman's voice was so solemn that it struck the hearts of everyone present.
The tolling of bells filled me with grief.
Yes!
The Yuanming border has already reached this point, how can we still think about preserving it?
"Lanlan, you're right!"
The hearty voice of Master Hengyang came from behind Xue Lan:
"You said that Senior Wei instructed you to break through the boundary. Are there any specific arrangements? If there's anything I can do to help you, just let me know!"
The powerful figures who were just thinking about their own sects felt their faces burn with embarrassment upon hearing Master Hengyang's words.
The Qingyun Sect Leader cursed him inwardly as an ignorant fool, but then he thought about it again.
The weapon-forging experts from the War Puppet Mansion have already spoken, so why are the sword cultivators of our Longsword Sect the ones who are frightened?
Thinking of this, the old man stroked his beard and looked at Xue Lan:
"Fellow Daoist Hengyang is right. I'm sure Senior Weihe already has a foolproof plan. Would you mind telling us about it?"
Xue Lan's expression stiffened slightly.
Wei He Daojun naturally had no foolproof plan to tell Xue Lan. In fact, the only time he met that grandmaster was when they drew their swords and faced each other.
All the methods were in Xue Lan's mind, and the specific actions were so ruthless that they could not be explained to outsiders.
Xue Lan had no choice but to avoid the main issue, talk about other things, and embellish the situation.
The woman smiled faintly, then looked in the direction of the Qingyun Sect Leader and suddenly spoke:
"It's not appropriate to go into details about this matter; I can only reveal a small part of it."
"Does the Qingyun Sect Leader know Fellow Daoist Yan Chengxue of the War Puppet Mansion?"
