Becoming a Saint by Touching Corpses - Chapter 533 - 510: Take My Move
Chapter 533: Chapter 510: Take My Move
Elder Chen arrived soaring on a flying carpet, his Foundation Establishment Stage’s powerful Spiritual Essence and Divine Sense tightly controlling the scene.
He looked at the chaotic scene in front of him, disciples lying injured and moaning everywhere, and the Guiyun Inn engulfed in roaring flames and thick smoke, furrowing his brows, his expression becoming even more pained.
“Ah, why are you fighting?” Elder Chen waved his hand, and a large frigid rain shower fell, extinguishing the flames at the scene.
“Reporting to Elder, it’s a female cultivator from your esteemed sect who struck first and injured us!” A young male cultivator from the Red Sun Sect stepped forward, indignantly accusing first.
“Wasn’t it your vile words first?” Han Taomeng retorted angrily.
“Gentlemen resolve disputes through words, not fists. Besides, we only spoke the truth, it’s you all who are narrow-minded and couldn’t take it!” The male cultivator sneered continuously.
“What exactly is going on…” Elder Chen’s face wrinkled like old tree bark.
He began inquiring about the details, and soon understood the course of events.
This time, Elder Chen felt troubled, hearing how it seemed like his sect’s disciples were more at fault.
’Whoosh!’
At this moment, a red light appeared above everyone at an astonishing speed, descending slowly to reveal a stunningly beautiful female cultivator in a red dress.
Her gaze was icy and fierce, a murderous aura lingered in her eyes, and seeing the surrounding chaos, she frowned and said: “What’s going on?”
The disciples of the Red Sun Sect present, upon seeing her, all changed their expressions, cowering like mice seeing a cat.
“Reporting to Uncle Wang, we were drinking at that inn when unexpectedly a woman from the Corpse-Driving Sect attacked indiscriminately and injured Brother Wu…”
“Uncle Wang, I’m in pain!” The previously flirtatious and frivolous-looking male cultivator of the Red Sun Sect was now lying on the ground, clutching his chest.
On it was a visible wound with blood gushing out.
“You strike with excessive viciousness!” The red-dressed female cultivator with a furious expression glared at You Qingyi.
“I don’t like men approaching me.” You Qingyi’s face remained cold and unmoved.
“Chen Changqing, is this how your Corpse-Driving Sect treats guests?” The red-lighted eyes of the Red Sun Sect female cultivator turned to Elder Chen.
“Ahem, Qingyi, apologize.” Elder Chen immediately said.
However, You Qingyi remained unmoved, causing everyone to change their expressions.
Not listening to one’s own Sect Elder, what kind of arrogance and disrespect is this?
Even some of the disciples from the Corpse-Driving Sect showed expressions of resentment.
“Well well well, quite bold.
No apology is necessary if she accepts my challenge!” The Foundation Establishment female cultivator from the Red Sun Sect sneered coldly.
With these words, the room burst into an uproar.
“She seems to be… the prodigy Wang Enning of the Red Sun Sect, who once slayed an injured mid-level Demon General, winning a top ten spot on the Moon Demon Elimination list!”
“Even if she’s at the Peak of Qi Cultivation, she’s far from a match for a Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator, impossible to fight across stages.
Let alone this woman’s reputation as a master, her strength surpasses ordinary Foundation Establishment considerably.”
“One move could decide life and death, I think the Corpse-Driving Sect’s female cultivator will have to bow her head now.”
On scene, Elder Chen listened to Wang Enning’s words, his expression grew increasingly troubled, looking at the sect’s female disciple:
“Qingyi, why haven’t you apologized quickly?”
He certainly did not want to see the sect’s genius fall here.
Yet You Qingyi, normally expressionless, showed hesitation after the female elder proposed one move.
“Qingyi, apologize quickly!” Bi Yaoyao urged, continuously shaking her friend’s arm.
“Fine.”
After more than ten breaths, her clear cold voice sounded, agreeing to the elder’s request.
“Is she crazy, isn’t she courting death?” The round-faced female cultivator from the Corpse-Driving Sect, Geng Shujie, shouted angrily.
“Darn it, now Elder Chen can’t save her even if he wanted to!” Another person shook his head.
Elder Chen Changqing also immediately stayed silent; he had done all he could, what more could he do now?
His side was already in the wrong and had a poor attitude, so just let them handle it alone.
Meanwhile, Lou Yi had been quietly observing the development of the situation.
After this series of events, he was more than ninety percent sure.
Qingyi’s original consciousness had been suppressed by Master Han Yue.
Previously checked ancient texts described Master Han Yue’s personality: as cold as iron, with a heart like stone, disregarding human emotions…
In other words, she’s a woman who knows only cultivation but has very low emotional intelligence.
You Qingyi is simply a bit cold, but is pure-hearted and respects elders and values protocol, completely different from Master Han Yue.
Her temperament couldn’t suddenly change to such a degree.
Lou Yi subconsciously used his divination gift and frowned suddenly.
He just divined the odds of ’You Qingyi’ accepting the other’s move.
Discovering not only the likelihood of not being harmed was high but also might break through under the pressure, achieving a qualitative leap.
Once breakthrough occurs, Master Han Yue might seize control, and the real Qingyi would be completely consumed by her.
Lou Yi absolutely would not allow this to happen.
Thinking this, Lou Yi strode forward.
“Elder Wang, I’ll take this move for her!”
Lou Yi’s words shook the whole venue.
Everyone present looked over in shock.
“Is he crazy, still thinking of playing hero to save the beauty at this time?”
“Ridiculous, I bet that woman’s like ice, may not appreciate it!”
“Foolish, too foolish!”
Even You Qingyi herself showed a hint of confusion.
’Why is he helping me, isn’t it dangerous, might lose his life.’
’Why is this scene somewhat familiar, has something similar happened before?’
’Who exactly is he, why do I feel a twinge of sorrow, a desire to cry…’
You Qingyi or Master Han Yue was startled by Lou Yi’s actions.
In her heart, an image seemed to pass by but was swiftly cut down by the Taiyin Emotion-Cutting Profound Ice Technique.
Leaving an intense emotional fluctuation that wasn’t cut clean.
You Qingyi did not know, Lou Yi calculated she might break through under great pressure and then took bold action.
Of course, if she couldn’t withstand it, Lou Yi wouldn’t stay idle.
Opposite, upon hearing Lou Yi’s proposal, Red Sun Sect’s Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator Wang Enning sneered coldly.
“You are quite the romantic, but I won’t hold back, think it over!”
“I’ve thought it over.” Lou Yi said casually.
He walked to the center of the street, where others scattered, avoiding him for fear of being caught up.
“Elder Chen, he requested it himself.” Wang Enning’s piercing gaze shot over, staring firmly at Chen Changqing.
“I heard it all.” Chen Changqing nodded.
“Good!” Wang Enning turned to Lou Yi, “Accept my move, regardless of success or failure, today’s matter will be settled!”
As soon as her words ended, Wang Enning’s vast Spiritual Essence surged within her, then she lifted a jade hand, causing a flaming giant sword of over ten zhang to appear in the void ahead!
The flaming sword, entirely deep purple as if crafted from crystal, scorching the surrounding void with a ’sizzling’ sound, masses of white mist ascending.
Many disciples close by felt their hair curl, sweat flowing, unable to help moving further away.
“Hah!”
Soon after, the flaming giant sword chopped down on Lou Yi, its momentum astonishing and unstoppable!
In the concerned gaze of everyone including You Qingyi.
Lou Yi’s sleeve released a black and white scroll, quickly unfurling on the ground, encompassing him within.
The scroll was filled with countless dense black lines, like blood vessels.
Then, one hundred and eight black shadows fell into the scroll, arranged in a regular pattern.
They instantly emitted a blinding white light, while black lines beneath their feet began to flow rapidly.
Masses of ribbon-like gray Energy alternately emerged, layering and intertwining, quickly filling the air above the scroll, tightly protecting Lou Yi below.
’Boom!’
The flaming giant sword made intimate contact with the scroll in the blink of an eye.
