Chapter 219 Yin Shang Challenges, Yellow Dragon Goes into Battle
In the Xibo Marquis's mansion, Ji Chang paced back and forth in the hall, almost wearing the bluestone slabs under his feet down.
His brows furrowed deeply, and with each turn of his head, as his gaze swept over Yu Ding and Manjushri, who sat quietly to one side, his sigh grew heavier, echoing in the empty hall.
"Two immortals, please think of a solution quickly! Staying cooped up here is not a long-term solution."
The city's food supplies are dwindling day by day. If this stalemate continues, we will be trapped and die in Xiqi City without the enemy even needing to attack!
Yu Ding and Wen Shu exchanged a glance, both seeing a hint of helplessness in each other's eyes.
After the Ten Deadly Formations were broken, Venus had already retrieved the Pangu Banner that he had lent him.
If he had such a supreme innate treasure, Yu Ding would still have the confidence to fight Qiu Shou Xian. But now that he has lost the treasure, he knows that he is no match for Qiu Shou Xian based on his own cultivation alone.
Yu Ding lowered his gaze and gently comforted her:
"My lord, please rest assured, things will take a turn for the better soon..."
Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly stopped and looked up at the night sky outside the Marquis's residence at the same time as Wenshu. A familiar aura was rapidly approaching.
Yu Ding said no more and raised his hand to form a magic seal.
The Tai Chi array surrounding Xiqi rippled slightly, and a crack quietly appeared.
The next moment, three beams of clear light descended, revealing their figures: Daoist Ran Deng, Guang Chengzi, and True Man Huanglong.
Upon seeing this, Ji Chang's eyes suddenly flashed with a burning light. He hurriedly took a few steps forward, his voice trembling:
"Have the three immortals come to help Xiqi?"
As the chief disciple of the Chan Sect, Guang Chengzi took the lead, leading Huanglong and Randeng to bow to Ji Chang:
"I, Guang Chengzi, have come here by the decree of my master, the Primordial Heavenly Venerable, to assist you, my lord, in overcoming this difficult time."
Upon hearing this, the gloom that had been hanging over Ji Chang's face for days instantly dissipated, and a cheerful smile appeared on his face.
He understood that Yu Ding and the others must have sent the message for help back to Kunlun. The newcomers were clearly of higher cultivation and status, so Xiqi might be saved.
"Good! Good! Heaven has not forsaken Xiqi! Men, quickly go and summon the Prime Minister..."
"Ji Chang, you old scoundrel! You coward, come out and face your death!"
"You cowardly rats, do you really think you can rest easy hiding in this tortoise shell, relying on a few useless trash from the Chan Sect?"
"Ji Chang! I've heard you have many sons. If the city runs out of food, why not cook your ninety-nine sons and share them? The bond between father and sons is strong; it must taste delicious! Hahahaha!"
Just then, a series of foul and obscene shouts pierced through the formation and entered the Marquis's residence with crystal clarity.
The voice was arrogant and grating, full of insults, not only tearing Ji Chang to shreds but also humiliating the disciples of the Chan Sect in the city.
At first, the Chaoge soldiers who were challenging them outside the city were also terrified, after all, there were real immortals among the people they were insulting.
But the immortal with the wavy head hid in the shadows, protecting them with his supernatural powers and promising to keep them safe. Only then did the soldiers become bolder and hurl increasingly vile insults.
Inside the Marquis's residence, the atmosphere suddenly plummeted to freezing point.
Guang Chengzi's face was ashen. As the chief immortal of Yuxu Palace who struck the golden bell, he had never been so humiliated by a mere ant.
"Hmph. How dare a mere mortal so desecrate the Jade Purity Sacred Realm? He truly has no sense of mortality."
"Senior Brother Guangchengzi, I request permission to teach these arrogant fools a lesson!"
Let's curb their arrogance and teach them a lesson: the disciples of a sage should not be slighted!
Guang Chengzi's gaze swept over Huang Long, seeing his anger blazing and murderous intent stirring within him, and he nodded slightly.
"Alright. Let them know what's what, but they need to remember to be careful."
"Disciple obeys!"
Upon receiving the order, Master Huanglong did not hesitate for a moment.
He swayed slightly,
It transformed into a hundred-foot-long golden dragon, soaring into the sky and circling above Xiqi City, casting a suffocating shadow.
The awe-inspiring pressure of the true dragon, like a tangible tidal wave, swept towards the direction from which the shouts and curses came from outside the city.
Under the oppressive force, the previously noisy shouts and curses outside the city came to an abrupt halt, turning into a chorus of terrified gasps and chattering teeth.
Huanglong Zhenren hovered in the air, his golden dragon eyes looking down at the army formation below, which resembled ants, and his anger subsided slightly.
The reason why Master Huanglong did this was simply to make those mortals who were challenging him leave.
In this way, one can both vent one's anger and avoid being tainted by negative karma.
However, just as the soldiers were terrified and about to collapse and scatter, a chilling wave of magical power quietly rippled out from behind the army formation.
The gentle waves caressed each soldier, instantly dispelling the fear in their hearts.
Someone in the formation shouted in a hoarse voice:
"Afraid...afraid of what! This serpent won't dare touch us!"
"Ji Chang, you old scoundrel! You trash of the Chan Sect! Come out!"
"That's right! Come out! What kind of skill is it to hide!"
After a brief silence, even more rampant and filthy shouts and curses rang out again, even louder than before.
When Huanglong Zhenren heard the group of mortals still cursing, he was slightly taken aback. He did not expect them to be so audacious.
His anger was fully ignited, and his last shred of restraint vanished under this blatant provocation.
"Great...very good!"
A thunderous sound rolled through the air, containing boundless rage.
Suddenly, the golden light in the air contracted, and the enormous dragon body quickly dissipated. Huanglong Zhenren had transformed back into human form and landed on the ground.
Just then, Qiu Shou Xian withdrew his magic power.
When the mortals saw the immortal approaching them, they immediately fled in panic.
With a mighty wave of his hand, Huanglong Zhenren erected a barrier that blocked all the mortals.
"Fellow Daoist, as a disciple of the Chan Sect, how dare you attack a mortal? Aren't you afraid of incurring karmic retribution?"
Before he finished speaking, Qiu Shou Xian appeared and punched Huanglong Zhenren.
Caught off guard, Huang Long was sent flying backward by the blow.
With just this one strike, Huanglong realized the difference in their cultivation levels and that he was no match for them.
Knowing he couldn't fight for long, he turned and tried to escape into the Tai Chi formation.
"Now that you've arrived, why the rush to leave?"
Qiu Shou Xian calmly raised his hand and summoned the Taiyin Talisman. With the activation of his magic power, the talisman transformed into a cold light and struck Huang Long's back.
Boom!
Huanglong Zhenren was unable to dodge in time and took the blow head-on, instantly his whole body... He coughed up blood and fell to the ground.
The wiry-headed immortal was in no hurry to kill him. He slowly walked up to the yellow dragon and sneered:
"Fellow Daoist, why are you doing this? You are already disregarded in the Chan Sect, why risk your life like this? If you are willing to become my mount, I might spare your life."
"You dare to challenge me? I am a disciple of a sage, how could I possibly serve as your mount? Kill me if you wish, why waste words!"
After saying that, he closed his eyes and said no more.
Qiu Shou Xian had long coveted Huang Long's true dragon bloodline and powerful physique.
If one can subdue a Taiyi Golden Immortal as a mount, one's own strength will surely increase greatly.
More importantly, as a disciple of a sage, he was not afraid of being questioned by the Primordial Heavenly Venerable.
In his view, the Tongtian Sect Leader would never sit idly by and watch himself be humiliated in order to protect the reputation of his disciples.
Moreover, this is a time of great calamity, so it is the perfect time to make a move.
If I were a monkey, I would say: Read this book!
