923: 253_5 923: 253_5 If it were someone else, he certainly wouldn’t be so polite, but to such a beautiful Immortal, of course one must be cordial.
Ling Xi has always been treated with courtesy by others, and she is even more courteous in return.
Looking at the male disciple in front of her, she also brought her hands together in a salute and said, “Hundred Peaks Sect, Four Treasures Peak’s Ling Xi, requests an audience with your Sect Leader.”
“To see our Sect Leader, Immortal Lady, you…” The man suddenly realized something, his eyes widened as he stared at Ling Xi and exclaimed in a low voice, “The Ling Xi from the Hundred Peaks Sect?”
“Correct.” Ling Xi nodded, a smile spreading across her face.
However, in the next moment, the disciples in front of the Mountain Abyss Sect’s gate retreated back through their gates in an instant, following which, the Mountain Protection Array of the Mountain Abyss Sect was activated.
Li Buzhou also took the initiative to ring the Warning Bronze Bell inside the gate immediately.
Ling Xi, the very Ling Xi from the Hundred Peaks Sect, one of the top ten Immortal Generals of the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty, and moreover, among the top of those ten generals.
She represented the pinnacle of the Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection.
Why had she suddenly appeared at their Mountain Abyss Sect?
Soon after the Warning Bronze Bell of the Mountain Abyss Sect rang, disciples gathered within the sect, and the Sect Leader of the Mountain Abyss Sect flew out directly toward the direction of the gate, quickly inquiring, “What’s the situation?
Why did we activate the Mountain Protection Array and ring the Warning Bronze Bell all of a sudden?”
Hearing the bell, Li Buzhou hastily responded, “Ling Xi, Ling Xi from the Hundred Peaks Sect is here, right outside.”
“Ling Xi?” The Sect Leader of the Mountain Abyss Sect paused momentarily, then quickly arrived at the gate and spotted the solitary figure standing outside their gate.
Some disciples of the Mountain Abyss Sect might, due to their weaker cultivation base, have never seen Ling Xi’s portrait.
But as the Sect Leader of the Mountain Abyss Sect, he had seen the images of numerous experts within the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty, and he recognized Ling Xi at first glance.
Ling Xi?
Why would she come to the Mountain Abyss Sect?
The Sect Leader of the Mountain Abyss was filled with confusion.
Although their Mountain Abyss Sect was close to the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty, being not particularly strong, they seldom had dealings with the Imperial Dynasty, let alone conflicts—He had no idea why Ling Xi would come to their sect.
With curiosity in his heart, but still as a Sect Leader, he spoke out, “Dao Companion Ling Xi, what brings you to our Mountain Abyss Sect?”
Although he only saw Ling Xi alone, he did not open the mountain gate.
Who knew if there were more people from the Hundred Peaks Sect behind her?
Ling Xi looked up to find that more figures had appeared at the Mountain Abyss Sect’s gate, and the one who spoke, surrounded by others like stars around the moon, protected in the middle, was a young man.
It seemed that this person must be the Sect Leader of the Mountain Abyss Sect.
Ling Xi had no intention of entering the Mountain Abyss Sect and directly said, “I know that someone has approached you, hoping you would join hands with them to attack our Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty.”
The Sect Leader of the Mountain Abyss Sect was momentarily startled; indeed, someone had approached their sect, and it was just yesterday.
It had only been a day, and people from the Hundred Peaks Sect had already come?
No, it would take time for the Hundred Peaks Sect to fly here, which meant that Ling Xi had already set out before the other party came looking for them?
Ling Xi, or rather the Hundred Peaks Sect, must have known in advance that someone would come looking for them?
The other party said they were also going to ally with other Immortal Sects.
Does that mean the Hundred Peaks Sect knew everything about it?
Even the other Immortal Sects of the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty?
The Sect Leader of the Mountain Abyss suddenly felt how unreliable the person who had come to find him was.
They thought they were acting in secrecy, yet their actions were already known to the other party.
He hesitated for a moment, but still nodded in acknowledgment and said, “Indeed, someone has come to find us, and it was a person from the Red Refinery Demonic Sect.”
Since others had approached him, as a Sect Leader, he had to show some responsibility and would not deny it.
“The Red Refinery Demonic Sect?” Ling Xi scoffed and asked, “Do you know who is behind the Red Refinery Demonic Sect?”
The Sect Leader of the Mountain Abyss nodded and replied, “I’ve heard some things.”
“Then do you know who is really behind the Red Refinery Demonic Sect?
It is the royal remnants of the previous Dynasty, the Qi Tian Dynasty.
Do you also know what their goal is?
Their intention is to restore the Qi Tian Dynasty.”
The Sect Leader of the Mountain Abyss nodded again and said, “I’ve also heard about this.”
Previously, the major Immortal Sects were unaware of the Qi Tian Dynasty’s affairs, but later, news of the remnants of the Qi Tian Dynasty came from the ten great Immortal Sects of the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty.
He believed this news to be true.
But he had still agreed to the proposal of the Red Refinery Demonic Sect, because what they said wasn’t wrong.
After the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth ended, once the Grand Preceptor awoke, he would surely find trouble with them.
So it was better to take this opportunity to directly obliterate the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty and dig out the Grand Preceptor’s living grave.
As for the Qi Tian Dynasty, whether or not they restored themselves, it wasn’t much of their concern.
The Qi Tian Dynasty couldn’t be more terrifying than the Grand Preceptor, could it?
If Qi Tian Dynasty turned to deal with them later, they could naturally unite to overthrow the Qi Tian Dynasty.
Ling Xi, standing afar, suddenly asked as she looked at the Sect Leader of the Mountain Abyss whose expression had hardly changed, “Then, do you know where the Qi Tian Dynasty comes from?
Have you never wondered where all those people, so many at the Golden Core Stage, could be hiding?”
“They don’t cultivate, don’t explore outside, and have no Immortal Sect?
Over so many years, why has no one discovered their Immortal Sect?”
