Chapter 707

Chapter 756: 14.32 Last Violet Star Smoking things out.

The Crown Prince marveled at how powerful the barrier is. His eyes glowed in delight as he saw the usefulness of this black barrier.

Hong Longqing said, This thing is extremely useful. I wonder if we can recreate this barrier to surround the whole human world or at least the capital.

Wasnt this barrier created by Chun Hongyun-Juns subordinate? Lets have Brother Yun ask Chun Hongyun-Jun for help then. Yun-gege~ said Sect Master Jin coyly at Yun Huaxia making the Sect Master of (Blue Fleeting Cloud Sect) Lan Zhuayun Sect recoil in discomfort.

Bai Qiyin stood before his other half and bellowed at the coquettish white lotus, Jin Baihua.Please visit ??e???????. ???

Move away! Stay away from my Dao Companion! said Sect Master Bai.

Jin Baihua took this opportunity to play the white lotus role and squeeze some tears at the corner of his eyes while looking at Bai Qiyin and sneakily peeking at Yun Huaxia behind the former.

Sob~ please dont get angry, Sect Master Bai. I-I was only suggesting that Yun-gege talk to his younger brother and ask him on behalf of his people. I dont mean anything else! said Jin Baihua.

.....

Seeing this oscar awarded acting Sect Master Bai couldnt help but roll his eyes at Sect Master Jins face not even giving the latter a face as someone with the same authority as he is.

Behind him, Yu Huaxia is so proud as he was endlessly complimenting his Dao Companions cuteness.

My darling is the best. Yiner is the cutest! Thoughts of Sect Master Yun.

Bai Qiyin mumbled, It would have been better if Brother Baiji was alive, that way it would be him representing the Jin Tiangui Sect (Gold Heavenly Turtle Sect) instead of this white lotus.

Jin Baiji. Courtesy name: Jin Bailu. The rightful heir of the Jin Tiangui Sect (Gold Heavenly Turtle Sect) as well as the eldest son of the old sect master Jin. He is also Bai Qiyins brother-in-law as this person married Bai Qiyins biological younger sister, Bai Qiqi.

Even though Bai Qiyin whispered those words with a low tone everyone else is a cultivator they would be able to hear someone else breathing within more than a meter distance much less Jin Baihua who was standing before Bai Qiyin. Everyone else heard Sect Master Bais words. Most of them couldnt help but nod their heads in agreement. In their eyes, Sect Master. Bai Jinhua pretends not to see this and smiles as friendly as always but deep inside his heart, he is cursing everyone for treating him like a fool.

Before everyone fell into an awkward atmosphere Yun Xiajie who was riding on his sword appeared and joined the rest of the Sect Masters.

Sect Master Yun Huaxia showed a gentle smile seeing his younger brother arrive.

Yun Xiajie said upon his arrival, Forgive me for arriving late.

Dont worry. Have you finished what Ive told you to do? asked Yun Huaxia with a meaningful smile.

Yun Xiajie nods his head and said to his elder brother, Thank you, Dage.

You are really welcome.

The brothers were talking with riddles and only Bai Qiyin, who knows the inside story, asked worriedly.

Was it effective? asked Sect Master Bai.

Yun Xiajie said, Please dont worry. Ive checked. Its effective. I plan to do it every night.

If its that effective I should practice playing lullabies next time, said Bai Qiyin whose musical talent is almost a disaster.

Yun Huaxia saved his wifes face and stopped his plan at the same time.

Darling, you can leave it to Jieye. If you want to play your flute you can only play for me! said Sect Master Yun.

Lu Er this smarta.s.s understood their conversation barely and commented, Big Brother Yun you wanted to become deaf?

What did you say, Second Master Lu!!? shouted Bai Qiyin.

As someone who grew up with Bai Qiyin and Bai Wuan, he knew how disastrous Bai Qiyins talent was with the flute. In their childhood no matter how expensive or how powerful a flute was given to Bai Qiyin the sound it would produce would be even worse than a chicken being slaughtered. In short, it wasnt something humans would love to listen to.

Sect Master Bai understood the meaning of Lu Ers words and immediately gave the latter a glare and was about to jump on him. Lu Er immediately hides behind his big brother while Sect Master Yun had to hug his wife to stop him from scratching Sect Master Lus face in anger.

While the Crown Prince didnt intend to get involved with the things in the childhood of these people, he stayed silent about where he was. Watching the play before him with a pa.s.sers-by att.i.tude. On the other hand, only Sect Master Jin Baihua was bewildered. Lu Er, Lu Yi, Yun Huaxia, Bai Qiyin, and Yun Xiajie had been talking with riddles only they could understand. Though he would usually not be interested in such gossip for some reason not only he felt left out, but he also felt annoyed as if they were talking about something or someone he knows as well but left out of the group on purpose.

He was about to ask about it but paused when he saw Chun Hongyun-Jun entering the black barrier without any hesitation.

Yun Xiajie said, Lets go. The faster we finished the faster we can go back.

Bai Qiyin, Crown Prince Hong, and Bai Jinhua followed after Yun Xiajie. Yun Huaxia and Lu Er stayed a bit to bid their short farewell to Lu Yu who would stay behind to take command of the young disciples which would stay out of the barrier in case it disappeared. Their role is to stop monsters from spreading within Luan City.

Yun Huaxia said, We are going. Dont worry I will protect Lu Er inside.

I will leave it to you, Erdi (Second Brother), said Lu Yi to Yun Huaxia.

Lu Yi said to his younger brother, Lu Er. Listen to your Big Brother Yun inside. Dont run around randomly. Run outside as soon as you feel danger which will affect your life. Do you understand Xiao Er!?

I understand, Ge! I will listen to Big Brother Yuns command! said Lu Er.

Only then did Yun Huaxia and Lu Er go in the barrier to follow after the rest who had already gone inside. Lu Yi watches their back become smaller with a frown. If he wasnt injured back then he would definitely be the one leading this group to exterminate those monsters.

If only I wasnt careless that time. I would have been able to join them inside, said Lu Yi.

Some elders from his sect pat his shoulder with understanding gazes in their eyes.

Dont worry. Chun Hongyun-Jun entered inside with Sect Leader Lu. With Sect Master Yun inside he would definitely not run around.

I would appreciate it if he wasnt reckless instead.

Okay! Get information! Get ready for any changes or anything that would come out of the barrier. We must protect Luan City!

Yes, Sir!!!

Inside the black barrier

The interior of the barrier was different from what Lu Yi and Lu Er had seen a few days ago. This time the forest surrounding the Ancestral Mound is no longer a lively greenery of tall and healthy trees, instead, it was a forest of dead trees. The closer they walk towards the center the more trees with only black and drying tree trunks and branches multiply. If one looked closer the land under their feet turned yellowish, dry, and barren. It got worse as they walked toward the entrance of the underground mound.

But unlike before when Lu Yi and Lu Er went to this place, there isnt any black fog coming out of the stone door entrance as theyve described.

Sect Master Jin spoke, Where is the black fog you guys mentioned? This area is clean.

Annoyed as he felt being pointed at as a liar, Lu Er rebuked, When I and dage went here the last time theres a black fog coming out of that stone door. Dont talk in a tone as if you are pointing at me as a liar!

I... I-I didnt mean it that way... B-Brother Yun? said Sect Master Jin as if he wanted to run behind Yun Huaxia trying to hide from Lu Ers unfriendly eyes.

But sadly, Bai Qiyin isnt going to allow him to do so. He immediately pulled out his white whip hanging on his waist and slashed once near Sect Master Jin as a warning.

Yun Huaxia looked serious as he felt things werent as simple as he thought.

Stop playing around. Keep your guard up! command Yun Huaxia as he glances at his younger brother.

Yun Xiajie understood what his big brothers eyes meant and pulled two guqin strings from his storage.

Yun Huaxia commands, Get ready! Be careful of the black fog if it ever comes out from the door!

Yes! was the collective response of the Sect Masters in the area.

The two strings flew towards the grip carved on the stone door. Once it clutched the door handle Yun Xijaie exerted force to pull out two heavy stone doors and forcefully opened them.

The stone door opened but the expected black fog didnt come out. Instead, a dark and narrow stair entrance appeared. Yun Xiajie observed the interior beyond the stone door and found nothing. There arent monsters or even ordinary animals, much less the devil race as Zhi Yang reported.

As everyone saw this, they began to feel things werent going right. It was as if the place was desolated, there isnt even a single trace left behind by the humanoid monster Lu Er and Lu Yi had met before.

Crown Prince Hong asked, What should we do next? Enter and go down the path?

No! Its dangerous, said Yun Huaxia.

Innocently Sect Master Bai suggested, Lets smoke them out?

Good Idea, darling~ then Your Highness Please~, said Sect Master Yun.

Among everyone in the group, only Crown Prince Hong Longing is able to wield fire element and so theyve all looked at him. The Yun Brothers, Yun Huaxia, and Yun Xiajie wild water and sound elements. Lu Er is a wind element user, Jin Baihua uses Earth while Bai Qiyin uses Ice element.

Crown Prince Hong asked, I only need to throw fire inside? But isnt this a graveyard for the Lu Clans Ancestry?

No worries. The interior must have longed to be destroyed with all those monsters inside. Big brother and I plan to rebuild it even if its destroyed and the elders all agree. We dont want a monster nest existing in the middle of Luan City right? said Sect Master Lu Er.

The crown prince and the rest all unhesitatingly agreed to Lu Ers words, as people of the cultivation world it was their duty to protect the weak.

Hong Longqing pulled out his sword and started executing techniques from his sect, the Hou Long Sect (Red Dragon Sect). As someone from the royal family, the sect was theirs and everything in it was provided by his family to train soldiers that would serve the blue blood family.

After circulating his qi around him a red gold qi appeared around him, this is the elemental qi of fire. Whispering a few chants of the spell, 8 sword qi made of fire elemental qi appeared before him.

Crown Prince Hong spoke, Fiery Sword Dance!

As he motioned a thrusting movement of his sword towards the opened stone door in front of them the eight fire swords qi all entered the dark path and illuminated everything on its path. The scene inside the dark entrance was brightened for a split second and everyone saw the eerie scene of monsters in various shapes of bugs, bats, and snakes gathering inside the underground graveyard.

Just the sheer number of them by the entrance of the stone door was enough for those who saw it to feel something crawling on their skins directly. It was disgusting and extremely uncomfortable to see. It was like seeing hundreds of wriggling creatures enclosed in a tight s.p.a.ce. Everyone except Yun Xiajie frowned in disgust.

Once the fire swords qi exploded, echoes of shrieks coming from monsters can be heard coming from the path. Just the sound itself indicates the numerous monsters living underground.

SHRIEKS~ Roaar~ SHAAAA~

Pale-faced Lu Er commented, If he destroy the entrance and blocked it would those things die inside?

Dont dream about it. They would just dig another path underground. Prepare yourself, they are coming out! said Sect Master Bai.

As he mentioned, countless monsters come out of the smoking entrance of the underground graveyard. It seems that Crown Prince Hongs attack just now caused a wildfire within the mound itself and the monsters started coming out afraid of death.
