Chapter 94 Out of the Valley
Although Qingxuan was an elder, there was a difference between an elder and a sect leader. The thought of being able to take charge of the massive magic treasure, the Thunder Listening Hall, filled him with excitement.
For a moment, the news of the deaths of relatives and disciples was not so sad, but it was still not appropriate to laugh out loud in front of Zhao Xuansu. He could only symbolically squeeze out a precious tear.
"In that case, I entrust my two junior disciples, Qin and Xie, to you, senior!"
"Then there's one left in Fallen Dragon Valley. According to the jade tablet, his name should be Li Ya!" Zhao Xuansu said with a hint of amusement.
"Li Ya? I have an impression of this cultivator, but he should not be a formal disciple of my sect. It is already an incredible opportunity for him to be able to enter the Fallen Dragon Valley."
"Whether we can come out alive or not is entirely up to fate; there's no point in forcing it!"
"That's right!" Zhao Xuansu waved his hand and sent Qingxuan back to the main hall. Only he, Qin Xinru, and the unconscious Xie Lingji remained in the side hall.
"This senior..."
Qin Xinru intended to continue begging, but Zhao Xuansu waved her hand to interrupt her.
"Little one, I know you value loyalty and righteousness, but rules are rules. The reason you two were able to come out is because you have broken through to the sixth level."
"Besides, he has the means to compel my intervention, but what does that brat surnamed Li have?"
"Junior brother...he!"
"Consolidate your cultivation level properly. Subduing the Earth Dragon Fire was no easy feat; nurture it for a while using this method!"
As she spoke, a jade slip appeared out of thin air in her hand, and the next moment she was teleported to a quiet room.
……
When the thirty-day period was up, Li Ya left the cave and found a secluded stone cave to hide in, waiting quietly for the changes to occur.
"Buzz!"
The jade pendant in his sleeve suddenly began to shimmer with spiritual light, and soon enveloped Li Ya.
This scene was playing out simultaneously in the valley, and the spiritual light emanating from the jade pendants on the bodies of some fallen cultivators also enveloped their remains.
Countless golden talismans appeared above the white jade palace in the sky, swirling rapidly around it before transforming into countless beams of spiritual light that tore through the mist and landed precisely on the jade tablet in the Fallen Dragon Valley.
Li Ya's body automatically floated into the air. He did not move, letting the force pull him along.
The next instant, countless lights and shadows receded, and Li Ya couldn't help but close his eyes. When he opened them again, he was already under the dazzling sunlight.
Once his eyes adjusted to the bright light, Li Ya began to look around. This place seemed to be the White Jade Palace.
He was now standing in a square in front of the palace, a square paved with an unknown type of jade, flat and wide.
Eighteen towering jade pillars stand around the square, their shafts carved with intricate runes that shimmer with a faint golden light, as if they were in operation.
At this moment, there are more than a hundred cultivators on the square, some standing, some supporting each other, and quite a few lying on the ground.
"There were at least several thousand cultivators before we went in, and now only this many remain. The losses are too great!"
Li Ya couldn't help but sigh, but after scanning the crowd several times, he still couldn't find Senior Brother Lingji and Senior Sister Qin.
His heart tightened suddenly, and then an indescribable emptiness washed over him. For a moment, he couldn't even think, nor dared to think in that direction.
It wasn't until Zhao Xuansu's divine power enveloped the surviving cultivators and an overwhelming pressure descended that Li Ya finally awoke.
"roar!"
One of the cultivators from the Azure Water Heavenly Palace let out an inhuman roar.
The surrounding cultivators were immediately startled and took several steps back, staring at the cultivator with fear in their eyes.
The three lotus flowers on Zhao Xuansu's Taoist crown seemed to add a touch of humanity.
Upon seeing this, his gaze suddenly sharpened, and a smile curled at the corner of his mouth.
"You little worm, I knew you'd pull this trick!"
"go!"
He gave a low shout, and countless yellow talismans emerged from behind his head, completely enveloping the thing and forming a cocoon.
The cocoon emitted incessant, inhuman roars. In the next instant, the cocoon was sealed by the restrictions on the white jade palace and dragged towards the core of the palace.
Then Zhao Xuansu waved her hand, and the eighteen jade pillars dimmed, clearly stopping some kind of formation.
Before long, elders from various sects and families came to pick up the people, but many more arrived only to find no one to greet them.
Li Ya, however, remained unattended for quite some time, prompting Zhao Xuansu to feel somewhat sentimental.
"If you don't wipe out the sect, who will? Such a cold-hearted sect, a once-great sect has been ruined like this."
Thinking of this, he waved his sleeve and disappeared from the square with Li Ya. This action immediately attracted the attention of the elder leading the Tai Xuan Dao team.
"Dodge, was that little fellow Li Ya, the one you gave out the Jade Token?"
Ning Daoqi cupped his hands and replied, "Replying to Elder, it is indeed this disciple!"
"Alas! This little fellow is truly pitiful, but at least he has settled his past affairs and can enter my sect without any worries."
"May I ask, Elder, what do you mean by what you just said?"
"What else can happen? As far as I know, the Yunfu Sect is now down to just him and one elder. All the others are dead."
Ning Daoqi was stunned and couldn't believe what the elder had said.
The Reflecting Mirror also floated in the air at this time. After a private conversation with the elder in charge, the mirror and the person walked into the hall.
……
When Li Ya stood still again, he had arrived at the door of a bedroom.
"Junior brother!"
A surprised exclamation rang out, and just as Li Ya was about to speak, he was pulled into his senior sister's arms.
My body stiffened at first, then slowly relaxed.
"Alright, alright, you two kids aren't ashamed, but this old man is ashamed!"
"He's suffocating!"
Although Zhao Xuansu called himself an old man, he looked only a little older than Li Ya, and his speech did not sound like that of an old man at all.
Senior Sister Qin blushed instantly and released her grip. Then, the group sat down in the room. When Li Ya learned from Senior Sister Qin that Yunfu Sect had been razed to the ground, he immediately thought of his master and Wei Que.
"Your master is probably alright. I personally witnessed her activate a high-grade talisman and escape! As for her whereabouts, I have no idea!"
Upon learning that his master was alright, Li Ya felt a little relieved. However, Wei Erge was just an ordinary cultivator. If he really had any skills, he wouldn't have ended up like this. He would probably be dead by now.
The more Zhao Xuansu looked at them, the more surprised she became. Could it be that all the fortune of the Yunfu Sect had been gathered on these three little guys?
"How strange!"
Zhao Xuansu's words immediately caught the attention of the two of them.
"The three of you, though you're in the Yunfu Sect, aren't actually disciples. One of you got a Dragon Ball fragment, another subdued the Earth Lung Spirit Flame, and you, little brat, seem to have gotten nothing."
"However, his foundation is solid, much stronger than those useless disciples of my senior brother."
"I have already accepted them both as my disciples."
"It wouldn't be right to leave you out, so how about..."
"Xuan Su, you brat, have mercy!"
A magical mirror appeared outside the door; it was Ning Daoqi's Shadow Mirror, which transmitted a message to Zhao Xuansu. Only the two of them knew about this conversation.
Li Ya assumed he was pondering something and waited quietly for the second half of the sentence.
The cultivator in the mirror image clearly had a close relationship with Zhao Xuansu.
"Oh, who is it now? It's you, you wandering ghost! What, you've taken a fancy to this little kid too? Don't you know your own limitations? How dare you snatch him from me!"
"Xuan Su, you brat, it wasn't me who tried to steal it, it was you! He's already accepted the Jade Token!"
Zhao Xuansu immediately retorted angrily, "You damned old Taoist!"
"Aren't you a Taoist priest too?"
