Chapter 167 Fighting
The two people who killed Geng Xiu in the scene were none other than Yun Fuzhao and that fox from Qingqiu.
Dai Junde's expression was solemn, and he said coldly, "Sect Leader Bai actually went so far as to fabricate images in order to frame our Sect Leader?"
Bai Yan had anticipated his response and immediately replied, "These are Geng Xiu's memories from his lifetime. How could I possibly forge them? If you don't believe me, you can have your sect leader come out and verify them."
"How did you extract the memories of the deceased? Does Sect Leader Bai lie without even thinking?"
“Dai Junde, I know you’re just stalling for time. Everyone here knows Yun Fuzhao’s character. She can even kill her own master, so why wouldn’t she kill a disciple of my sect?”
Bai Yan's face turned cold. "Today, I will avenge my sect's disciples!"
As soon as he finished speaking, his disciples summoned their natal sword spirit beasts...
Dai Junde glanced at them briefly and saw that most of those who came were direct disciples, and there were so many of them. Bai Yan was determined to wipe out their sect.
Unfortunately, Yun Fuzhao was not at the sect at this time, and Wang Zhi was still unconscious.
The onlookers got excited.
"The Boundless Sword Sect is truly finished this time. The Xuan Tian Sect has sent disciples with exceptional talent."
"Serves them right. Who told them to provoke the Xuantian Sect first, and to be so cruel as to rip out a person's heart?"
"I've said it before: the demon realm is no good. The wolf clan killed three disciples of the Xuantian Sect, and the Qingqiu fox clan killed a direct disciple of the Xuantian Sect. Tsk tsk, the Xuantian Sect is truly pitiful."
The onlookers largely agreed, saying, "The Boundless Sword Sect is acting far too arrogantly. If I were Sect Leader Bai, I wouldn't be able to swallow this insult either."
"This Yun Fuzhao is a scourge; no one who runs into her ends up well. Speaking of which, the Xuantian Sect's people have already reached her doorstep, so why hasn't she shown up yet? Could it be that Ren isn't in the sect right now?"
Standing beside Bai Yan, Yu Nian'er kindly advised, "Elder Dai, the sect leader does not want to provoke trouble. If you hand over Yun Fuzhao and the Qingqiu Fox Clan now, our sect leader will not make things difficult for your sect."
Dai Junde remained silent, but turned his head and spoke to Song Ying in his mind: "Send a message to Yun Fuzhao right now and tell her to come back immediately."
Song Ying was taken aback, her expression somewhat indescribable: Elder, are you really going to hand over Senior Sister Yun?
Dai Junde: What nonsense are you thinking? Only if she returns will our sect have a chance of survival.
Song Ying nodded and, taking advantage of the conversation, quietly retreated to the back to prepare to leave.
Unexpectedly, Yu Nian'er, who had been observing them, saw them clearly. "Song Ying, where are you going?"
Upon being called out, Song Ying paused, then ignored her and quickly left.
Yu Nian'er was furious, but she couldn't show it.
“Nian’er is right,” Bai Yan said. “As long as you hand them over, we’ll wipe the slate clean.”
Just as Dai Junde was about to speak, he heard his disciple behind him shout, "You wish! We will never hand over our sect leader!"
"That's right! There is no sect leader in this world better than our sect leader! If you want us to hand her over, you'd better step over our dead bodies first!"
Dai Junde turned around in surprise, only to see them talking with flushed faces and shining eyes, filled with the determination to protect Yun Fuzhao to the death.
Not only him, but all the cultivators present were stunned when they heard this.
For cultivators, sects are merely stepping stones to ascension. Apart from the direct disciples who enjoy all the benefits of the sect, other disciples do not have such deep feelings for the sect.
Especially for outer disciples, the idea of dying for the sect leader would seem absurd to them.
Bai Yan's face darkened, and he no longer hesitated. "Disciples of Xuantian Sect, listen to my command! Wuya Sword Sect has humiliated our sect. If we do not avenge ourselves today, they will kill you in the future."
With their own interests at stake, the disciples of the Xuantian Sect were more eager to fight than ever before.
"Kill the Boundless Sword Sect and avenge my sect's disciples!"
"Avenge my sect's disciples!"
Loud roars rose one after another, and the disciples of Xuantian Sect charged towards Wuya Sword Sect like arrows released from a bow.
Dai Junde formed hand seals, his eyes dark and brooding. "Bone-Shattering Formation, activate!"
In an instant, the stars shifted and white light spread out from beneath his feet.
The first disciple to rush into the gates of the Boundless Sword Sect didn't even have time to scream before being swept into the formation, instantly turning into a skeleton, and then dissipating into dust.
Everyone was stunned by this unexpected turn of events.
"This is the Boundless Sword Sect's protective formation? Are you kidding me? I remember their formations were only Rank 6. Is this the power a Rank 6 formation should have?"
The disciples who had been charging forward froze and stopped, their faces pale, no longer daring to go any further.
Bai Yan looked at Xi Mo beside him and asked, "Elder Xi, can you break this formation?"
Xi Mo stepped forward, "Let me give it a try."
After saying that, he leaped into the air and rushed straight toward the formation, a circular formation in his hand constantly rotating and changing.
Dai Junde's expression was solemn. Xi Mo was the most outstanding array cultivator in the current cultivation world. In terms of array formations, the only one who could rival him was probably Qu Wangzhi.
But now that he's unconscious, how can we stop him from breaking the formation...?
Dai Junde gritted his teeth. He had to go out and stop him from breaking the formation. If he succeeded, the disciples outside would rush in, and the disciples of the Boundless Sword Sect wouldn't be able to hold out for long.
He took a step forward and charged ahead, when a cold female voice rang out, "Elder, leave it to me."
Lan stepped out from the crowd, and step by step, she transformed into her original form as a mermaid.
This was the first time the other disciples had ever seen Lan, and they were dumbfounded. "A merman?"
"How many more surprises does the Boundless Sword Sect hold that we don't know about?"
Lan swung her tail and burst out of the formation, leaving streaks of blue light in the void. She whispered some ancient incantation.
Bai Yan's expression changed, and he shouted, "Use your spiritual energy to block your hearing!"
However, it was too late; many disciples fell into a coma before they could react.
Xi Mo was prepared and took precautions in advance. The ancient incantation had no effect on him. He continued to break the formation.
Upon seeing this, Dai Junde immediately drew his sword and charged towards Xi Mo.
Just as he was about to approach him, Wen Yan, who had rushed over, stopped him. "Elder Dai, I apologize for the intrusion."
Dai Junde gritted his teeth and had no choice but to engage him in a struggle.
The disciples of the Boundless Sword Sect were extremely anxious. "Elder, we're here to help you!"
"No need!" Dai Junde shouted, "You all stay inside the formation and don't move! If anything happens to you, I won't be able to explain it to Yun Fuzhao!"
Bai Yan chuckled, flicked his wrist, and directed his spiritual energy toward Lan, who was chanting a spell in mid-air. She calmly accepted the attack.
A wide-ranging incantation can only trap the disciple in a dream, lasting from an hour to the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.
Lan looked at Bai Yan. This cultivator was stronger than her, but she could hold him off.
All we can do now is wait for Yun Fuzhao to return...
