Chapter 994: Dao Sect Gathering_2

The numerous main peaks stood tall, and on the former Heroic Sword Peak, one silhouette after another had already arrived.

“What happened? Is there movement on the mysterious side?”

Xiang Yuntian arrived, addressing the already present Purple Fairy.

But Purple Fairy just shook her head: “I don’t know. An Li sent a message. We will know when he arrives.”

“Brother Xiang,”

Another silhouette arrived, it was Gu Canye, and as soon as they met, Xiang Yuntian greeted him with surprise and delight, saying, “Your Sword Dao is still progressing, you’re already a Quasi-Daluo…”

Back in the day, Xiang Yuntian and Gu Canye were both top geniuses of the Dao Sect’s Heroic Sword Peak. After leaving the Spirit Realm, for a long time, the two also advanced side by side.

However, later, Gu Canye became more meticulous in dealing with matters, taking on the task of developing the Dao Sect, and by involving himself too much in worldly affairs, he fell behind Xiang Yuntian.

Of course, one could say he was held back; he had more wisdom, and therefore more worries, while Xiang Yuntian was simpler at heart, thinking less, which was a blessing on the path of Sword Dao cultivation.

Until now, with the great disaster approaching, Gu Canye cleared all his thoughts, and with the Sword Heart reappearing, his cultivation suddenly caught up.

“Having secluded myself for years, with nothing else to do, I could only hone my cultivation for a while.”

Gu Canye smiled slightly, saying, “Before the Yunluo Sacrificial World, I’ll wield my sword one more time anyway, the stronger the cultivation, the less embarrassing it is.”

“Why are you concerned with Yunluo Immortal Venerable? You should find a wife, hahaha… Is anyone else coming?”

Xiang Yuntian asked, and then more silhouettes arrived: Li Qingran, Thunder Vibration, Fen Yuan, and others came, though the others have yet to be seen.

“An Li, you brat, finally arrived, what on earth happened?”

At last, An Li arrived, and Xiang Yuntian asked.

But An Li only smiled wryly, saying, “I don’t know either, it was Junior Sister Li Nianxue who sent the message… I gave her a Jade Talisman that can contact everyone.”

Even though he said so, an indistinct excitement flickered in his eyes, clearly having guessed something.

The others were even more puzzled, but Purple Fairy suddenly said, “By the way, where is Miss Shangguan? Why hasn’t she come?”

An Li was also confused, as it was impossible that Li Nianxue didn’t notify Shangguan Xiaoxiao. Why didn’t she come?

While they waited, suddenly there was a slight tremor in the void.

“She’s here!”

“Ask her and you’ll find out.”

Everyone looked towards the source.

In the void, two figures appeared together, one of them was Li Nianxue, but the other…

“What kind of demon or ghost!”

Xiang Yuntian’s eyes widened, roaring angrily, he drew the Ta’e Stone Sword directly, and the Daluo Sword Qi roamed, about to slash at the person with a sword.

“Master, don’t act rashly!”

An Li was shocked, hastily stopping Xiang Yuntian with both hands.

“Don’t stop me, can’t you see? Li Nianxue must have been controlled by a ghostly thing, it must be sent by Yunluo Immortal Venerable, it might even be an incarnation of Yunluo Immortal Venerable themselves, daring to transform into the likeness of the old sneaky one. Damn Yunluo Immortal Venerable, die!”

Xiang Yuntian was furious, suspecting it was a plot, and most importantly, the person beside Li Nianxue dared to turn into that form, which, to him, was an unchallengeable bottom line.

Even Gu Canye was momentarily stunned, with immense confusion in his eyes.

“Supreme?!”

Li Qingran frowned deeply.

At the critical moment, Purple Fairy intervened, restraining Xiang Yuntian, saying, “Don’t panic, he… does not seem like a Mysterious Creature.”

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Li Nianxue and Li An finally stepped forward, Li Nianxue stood beside with respect and silence, while Li An smiled lightly, looking at the familiar faces before him, feeling a warmth he couldn’t explain, letting his gaze settle on Xiang Yuntian, and said:

“Good thing you, the ungrateful rat, back in the Celestial Killer Mountain range, you owed me a life, now you want to wield a sword against me, it seems you want to kill to silence, lest someone comes to claim the life you owe…”

He brought up the past, back when Li An was meditatively cultivating in the Celestial Killer Mountains, he once saved Xiang Yuntian, who was then destitute, claiming the life-debt Xiang Yuntian owed.

This matter was never mentioned again by either, except for Xiang Yuntian, Li An, and An Li, no one else knew.

Thus, when Li An brought it up now, Xiang Yuntian was momentarily stunned, staring at Li An, saying, “You…”

“Me what? I damn well lived, were you hoping I’d be dead?”

Xiang Yuntian was at a loss for words, this very figure, who once wielded swords against Xiang Changqing Immortal Venerable and was acclaimed as the first Sword Cultivator of the current age, was choking with emotion on the spot, with tears filling his tiger-like eyes, even his stone sword dropping to the ground, body trembling slightly, just like that, watching Li An intently.

“Is it… really Brother Li?!”

Gu Canye stepped forward, embracing Li An’s shoulder with joy, exclaiming, “You, you’re really still alive?!”

Behind, Li Qingran, Thunder Vibration, Fen Yuan and others were even more astounded.

This legendary figure in the history of the Dao Sect, has he truly returned?

Purple Fairy stared at Li An, with extreme astonishment in her eyes as well, that Li An was still alive, was simply unimaginable.

One must know, back then Li An was sacrificially offered by Evergreen Immortal Venerable to the living altar, assuredly dead and gone!

“The portrait of Shangguan Supreme, originates from Li Supreme.”

An Li did not step forward; he watched the scene of the people’s recognition with Li An, feeling both gratified and nostalgic, smiling slightly, saying, “Back when we besieged Hongbo Fairy, we almost lost, in the end, the Bone Transformation Array I set up suddenly became stronger, at that time it was Li Supreme who secretly helped me.”
