The Prodigies War

Chapter 1779: The Influential Figures of the Alchemy Dao Sect

The boundary ship hovering in the air felt as huge as a floating continent, covering an area of thousands of acres and was built with all sorts of magnificent buildings, pavilions, rockery and water features.

It roared like thunder as it came from the far horizon, flowing with splendid light and casting a massive shadow on the earth.

The many cultivators gathered near Snowdrift Sacred Mountain gasped, then their eyes blazed with desire.

This was a boundary ship that could cross the barriers of a world, roam the starry sky, and reach other galaxies. Not any great sect or clan could possess one!

The possession of a boundary ship was a symbol of an ancient orthodoxy.

“It’s here!” Controlling his excitement, Gongyang Qi soared into the air to greet the visitors.

After a while, the boundary ship slowly made its landing and a group of important figures from the Alchemy Dao Court were personally welcomed by Gongyang Qi and brought to the great hall of the Tianxing Sword Sect.

……

A total of seven influential figures from the Alchemy Dao Sect had come this time, headed by Elder Ma Taizhen, a true Saint-King of the Alchemy Dao Sect.

Among them was also Yu Yunhe, an inner true disciple of the Alchemy Dao Sect and a descendant of the Imperial Yu Clan[1]. He was exceptionally gifted and had a solid foundation. This time he came with Ma Taizhen to widen his experience.

The combined strength of those seven people could sweep the entire Tianqu World. Moreover, they were only a tip of the iceberg; the power of the Alchemy Dao Sect was tremendous.

“Are they the ten people selected this time?”

In the great hall, Ma Taizhen asked aloud. His hair and beard was dark as ink. Clad in a blue daoist robe embroidered with the Alchemy Dao Sect symbol, he sat on the main seat in the hall and exuded the majesty of a sovereign.

Mu Xiuyuan, Nan Qiu and the others who stood out in the Battle of Tianqu Kings were all standing respectfully in the hall.

“Elder, they are indeed the ten people selected,” Gongyang Qi answered humbly.

Although he was the sect master of the Tianxing Sword Sect, he was still inferior to someone like Ma Taizhen in terms of both cultivation and status.

“Not bad, not bad.”

Ma Taizhen nodded with a smile, then he suddenly asked, “Which one of you is Mu Xiuyuan?”

Mu Xiuyuan quivered and he immediately stepped forward and bowed respectfully. “I am Mu Xiuyuan, pleased to meet you, Elder.”

Ma Taizhen’s eyes gleamed a divine light. He studied Mu Xiuyuan carefully for a moment, then smiled with satisfaction. “Before I came here, your older sister Mu Xiuqi said that I won’t be disappointed when I see you. Now that I’ve met you, you are indeed a rare talent, a dragon among men.”

Mu Xiuyuan’s face lit up, but he said humbly, “Elder, thank you for the compliment, but I don’t deserve it.”

There was a low commotion in the hall. Many people were surprised to find out that Mu Xiuyuan had an older sister training in the Alchemy Dao Sect!

“Your older sister and I are close. If you run into any trouble in the Alchemy Dao Sect, you can come to me,” Yu Yunhe suddenly said aloud.

He had a handsome face and a plump and round forehead. As his eyes opened and closed, there seemed to be visions of rising clouds and booming lightning flashing across them.

“Senior Brother, thank you for your support!” Mu Xiuyuan beamed.

Many people couldn’t help but look at him enviously. He hadn’t even gone to the Alchemy Dao Sect yet, but someone had already paved the path for him!

“Then it’s decided. We will rest here for three days and after that we will leave with these ten people and return to the Great Yu World,” Ma Taizhen announced.

“Please step aside for now.” Gongyang Qi commanded and right away, Mu Xiuyuan, Nan Qiu and the other eight selected cultivators as well as unimportant Tianxing Sword Sect disciples left the hall.

“Gongyang Qi, what’s the matter?” asked Ma Taizhen

Thud!

Gongyang Qi did something that no one expected. He came to the front of the hall and dropped to his knees, his expression sorrowful. “Elder, please save our Tianxing Sword Sect!”

Ma Taizhen and others were bewildered.

The Tianxing Sword Sect was the greatest sect in the Tianqu World and enjoyed an extraordinary status, and their sect master, Gongyang Qi, was the number one expert in the Tianqu World and had supreme authority.

Even so, he was crying for help on his knees!

Right away, Ma Taizhen gathered that Gongyang Qi must be in quite a predicament. Otherwise, why would he kneel down before saying anything?

While Ma Taizhen was contemplating, Yu Yunhe couldn’t help but ask curiously, “What’s going on? Tell us what happened.”

An expression of sorrow and resentment clouded Gongyang Qi’s face. He gritted his teeth and recounted what happened, from Lin Xun’s unexpected appearance, to his tyrannical behavior and cruel killings on the Tianxing Sword Sect.

PA!

Yu Yunhe smashed the table in front of him with a slap. “What an audacious fellow! How dare he force Junior Sister Xiuqi’s brother to kneel, does he have a death wish?!”

Ma Taizhen and other influential figures of the Alchemy Dao Sect smiled wryly. They all knew that Yu Yunhe had a crush on Mu Xiuqi and was currently pursuing her.

His main purpose of coming to the Tianqu World was to meet Mu Xiuyuan, hoping to use this opportunity to show off his abilities and win Mu Xiuqi’s heart.

Yu Yunhe turned to face Ma Taizhen and asked, “Elder Ma, since we know about this, we have to help. What do you think?”

Ma Taizhen sighed to himself. In ordinary times, I would not care about such a matter unless Gongyang Qi paid a huge price.

The problems of Tianxing Sword Sect have nothing to do with our Alchemy Dao Sect.

But Yu Yunhe’s words made Ma Taizhen know that he had no choice but to help out. But he was unhappy to just agree without any benefits.

What for?

It was at this moment that Gongyang Qi, who was kneeling on the ground, said aloud, “Elder, our Tianxing Sword Sect is willing to offer one thousand dao crystals, ten one thousand-year-old divine herbs and all kinds of divine materials and treasures. I only ask that you get us out of this deep water!”

Ma Taizhen’s eyes flashed, and after a moment of wavering, he agreed solemnly, “Fine, Yunhe is right. Since we came across this matter, we can’t just stand by and do nothing!”

His words were sonorous and filled with righteousness.

Upon seeing this, other influential figures of the Alchemy Dao Sect also nodded with a smile.

It was just a request to eliminate a supreme Big Saint. This was no difficult task for them.

What’s more, Gongyang Qi had tactfully offered a huge reward for it. How could they refuse?

“This matter should not be delayed. Gongyang Qi, lead the way. Let’s settle things with that audacious fellow! I also want to see who dares to be so arrogant!”

Yu Yunhe stood up with a look of disdain on his face.

“He indeed has gone too far. Not only did he kill, but he also occupied someone’s cave to meditate. His behavior is simply despicable and outrageous.”

Ma Taizhen also rose to his feet. “Yunhe is raging and can’t wait any longer. Let’s take action now and get rid of that beast so that Gongyang Qi can feel at ease.”

“Thank you Elder!” Gongyang Qi choked back tears of gratitude.

In truth, he felt his heart was in tears. The reward he offered was almost half of the wealth of the Tianxing Sword Sect. How would his heart not ache?

A thought struck Yu Yunhe and he ordered, “Oh, right, call Mu Xiuyuan. I want him to see the audacious fellow who dared to humiliate and trample on his dignity die before his eyes!”

Ma Taizhen and the others couldn’t help but smile. Even at such a time, Yu Yunhe did not forget to use the opportunity to please Mu Xiuqi who was far away in the Alchemy Dao Sect.

Naturally, Gongyang Qi did not object.

……

In the blessed land at the rear of the mountain.

Gongyang Qi was enormously smug and satisfied that his plan was going as planned. His heart was pounding with excitement and anticipation, but his face remained very calm.

“Is Fellow Daoist Lin here?” he asked.

“What’s the matter?”

Very quickly, Lin Xun emerged from the cave dwelling. He withdrew his qi into his body and his aura became so ordinary that it did not ripple in the slightest.

The greatest form was formless, returning to its true self!

Gongyang Qi drew a deep breath and said aloud, “Fellow Daoist, today the experts of the Alchemy Dao Sect came by boundary ship and they want to meet you.”

Lin Xun nodded with a half smile. “I see. They came at the right time then. I was planning to leave by boundary ship. I indeed must meet them.”

Gongyang Qi smiled coldly. Do you think you can take the boundary ship? I’m afraid you won’t live to do that!”

At this moment, Lin Xun suddenly walked up to Gongyang Qi and clapped him on the shoulder, reminding in a gentle voice, “Fellow Daoist, you must have had a very bad time these days, but you must not do anything stupid. Otherwise, it will only hurt others and also hurt yourself. The entire Tianxing Sword Sect might even be implicated.”

Gongyang Qi shuddered inside and his body stiffened. How could he not tell that Lin Xun was threatening him?

But when he thought of Ma Taizhen and the others, his emotions quickly settled and he forced a smile. “Fellow Daoist, you say funny things.”

Lin Xun chuckled. “Where are they?”

Gongyang Qi pointed to the distant sky. “The group of experts from the Alchemy Dao Sect are chatting over drinks in the clouds, admiring the beauty of the scenery.”

Lin Xun looked over and exclaimed, “What a great place! Even if a battle breaks out, it won’t affect the Snowdrift Sacred Mountain or damage any of the flowers and plants of the Tianxing Sword Sect.”

Gongyang Qi’s smile froze on his lips, and a wave of bewildering and frightening feelings swept over his heart. Has the kid realized?

Shua!

Lin Xun put his hands behind his back and floated into the air.

“Young man, don’t blame me for being too cruel. You are the one who pushed me this far!”

Watching Lin Xun leave, Gongyang Qi felt a weight lifted off him. His eyes flashed and without further ado, he followed him to watch him be executed!

……

Far away in the distance, the sea of ​​clouds rolled. Ma Taizhen and the others were standing above the clouds like a group of immortals. Their robes fluttered gracefully.

Mu Xiuyuan was also among them. He could barely hide his excitement.

When he heard that Ma Taizhen and the other experts of the Alchemy Dao Sect were going to take action to kill Lin Xun, he was so happy that he almost jumped up.

“I can finally wipe away the shame and humiliation I suffered! That bitch Nan Qiu and the Musang Tribe also can’t escape their punishment!” He gnashed his teeth.

In recent days, he was almost unable to sleep or eat at all. Every time he thought of the scene of him being forced to kneel, he felt like his heart being stabbed countless times.

But after today, all of this would dissipate like smoke!

“He’s here.”

Ma Taizhen’s eyes were as sharp as lightning as he looked into the distance.

Almost at the same time, Yu Yunhe and the other Alchemy Dao Sect experts also looked over.

In the distant sky, a figure was coming their way across the sea of ​​clouds, his robe and black hair fluttering in the wind. It was Lin Xun!
