Chapter 516 - 236: Inheritance Obtained, True Identity Revealed
Beside Ao Langtian, the hooded Golden Core Late Stage cultivator who once went with him to Jiuhua Sect, asked.
Upon hearing this, Ao Langtian hesitated slightly, but ultimately shook his head.
Watching the Jiuhua Sect people pilot their flying boat away, he furrowed his brows slightly and said:
"After the competition concludes, the alliance specifically instructed not to let the two Supreme Elders interfere in this matter.
Yu Changge is formidable, and coupled with Gong Yuyuan, even the four of us may not be able to stop them.
Let’s wait for Junior Brother Sun to bring others out. The many legacies and treasures within the site are more important."
At this point, Ao Langtian’s eyes flickered slightly, revealing a haughty smile:
"As long as our Daluo Sect can acquire the Secret Treasures of several sects inside, in a few decades, our strength will greatly increase.
By then, our status in the alliance will surely rise, and we can deal with Jiuhua Sect at our leisure."
"That’s true!" The hooded elder nodded, then asked with a puzzled look:
"It’s strange how Junior Brother Sun and the others allowed so many cultivators from Jiuhua Sect to leave, yet they themselves have not come out.
We originally thought of taking this opportunity to further weaken Jiuhua Sect by eliminating some Foundation Establishment disciples.
Now, they’ve only lost five people; they were lucky."
"Indeed, it’s a pity." Ao Langtian’s tone also contained a hint of regret.
He then cast his eyes back towards the direction of the spatial site.
"It could be that when Junior Brother Sun and the others’ cultivation was detected, these Jiuhua Sect disciples chose to escape.
Regardless, with Junior Brother Sun inside, along with nephews pairing up to match the techniques of Golden Core cultivators...
Ultimately, nothing is likely to go wrong. The legacy will eventually fall into our hands; we just need to wait."
Ao Langtian naturally did not expect that after waiting day after day, the barrier still showed no response.
Meanwhile, on the other side, the Jiuhua Sect members, under the leadership of Yu Changge and four Golden Core cultivators, returned smoothly to Jiuhua Sect.
Inside the council hall of the Nine Spirits Peak, Yu Changge immediately gathered all of the sect elders.
When all nine elders were present, Yu Changge looked towards Chu Ning and the others, asking:
"You’ve kept silent the entire journey, can you finally tell us what happened now?"
Everyone’s eyes simultaneously turned to Chu Ning, and He Yanmao immediately said:
"Senior Brother Li Qun, you should speak."
Upon hearing this, apart from Ge Liuyang, the other elders were somewhat surprised.
When this ’Li Qun’ was included in the group of twenty, several elders were surprised.
After all, they had never seen this Foundation Establishment Late Stage cultivator Li Qun before.
But since Yu Changge arranged it, out of trust for the Sect Leader, they voiced no objections.
Now, seeing the way He Yanmao and others treated Li Qun, as though he was the chief among them, they were indeed a bit taken aback.
However, once Chu Ning started speaking, they decided to listen patiently.
Chu Ning then succinctly explained how he entered the Wolong Mountain site and encountered two Daluo Sect cultivators being chased by the Red Flame Beast.
He killed the two and went on to save Shang Xiaohan.
At this point, Chu Ning paused, turning to Shang Xiaohan:
"Junior Sister Shang, you know what happened next. Why don’t you continue?"
From Chu Ning’s perspective, it was difficult to explain everything, so he let Shang Xiaohan speak.
"Alright." Shang Xiaohan nodded and said,
"Soon after entering the site, I also encountered two Daluo Sect cultivators."
"You encountered two Daluo Sect cultivators as well." Female Cultivator Fu Lihong, among the nine Golden Core Elders, couldn’t help but ask.
When Chu Ning spoke of encountering two Daluo Sect cultivators, they were only slightly puzzled.
Now, as Shang Xiaohan mentioned the same.
They realized something was amiss.
Shang Xiaohan nodded and continued to describe how the two coordinated, how Chu Ning saved her, and how he later joined He Yanmao and others.
At this, the elders cast a few more glances at Chu Ning.
They now understood why this ’Li Qun’ received such treatment from everyone.
When Shang Xiaohan continued, mentioning Chu Ning discovering the presence of Golden Core Cultivator Sun Shifan,
and how others also had techniques nearly equating Golden Core strength, Yu Changge and others’ faces turned serious.
Shang Xiaohan already felt immense gratitude towards Chu Ning for saving her twice, so she couldn’t help but embellish Chu Ning’s actions slightly.
Upon hearing Chu Ning volunteered to distract the Golden Core cultivator, they were all moved.
Their curiosity about the subsequent events grew stronger.
After all, facing a force like Daluo Sect, numbers won’t necessarily determine the outcome.
Yu Changge and Ge Liuyang vaguely guessed some things at this point.
But they weren’t certain.
Shang Xiaohan continued:
"The Three-Colored Light Shield array formed by five Daluo Sect members was incredibly powerful. Despite so many of us attacking, several were still injured.
Just as Senior Brother He and others were launching an attack to distract them, and we prepared to scatter and escape...
