Chapter 637 Unexpected Changes
However, the two Nascent Soul cultivators were also very resolute in their attitude.
They said no entry, and that meant no entry. The remaining nearly one hundred people were kept outside.
Bang!
With a loud bang, the door slammed shut.
The group was left completely bewildered, standing there in a daze.
"Are they really going to close the door and not let anyone in?"
Yu Changsheng was also puzzled. Was this really an auction?
Yu Changsheng felt increasingly that something was off about the auction.
But just then, a series of noisy sounds suddenly came from afar.
Then a group of people rushed over and dispersed the crowd that had been blocking their way.
A tall woman, riding a magnificent horse, rushed over and reined in her horse, stopping in front of the pavilion's door.
This person was Xie Quanling, the dark-faced woman who had previously made an appointment with Yu Changsheng to come here.
Not far behind him was a rather frail girl, whom Yu Changsheng had seen on the high platform.
Xie Quanling shouted loudly, "Xie Quanling of the Xie family, one of the four great families, is here again! Open the door now!"
Many people had previously wondered about the identity of this frightening-looking woman, but now they finally understood why she was so arrogant.
"So it's the Xie family, one of the four great families!"
"No wonder they dare to make such a fuss, it's not surprising now."
"I just don't know if the Xie family will be allowed to enter?"
"Hehe, this is going to be interesting."
"I never expected to see such a lively scene today."
However, after Xie Quanling called out, there was still no response from inside the attic.
Xie Quanling, standing outside the door, also darkened considerably and called out again:
"Xie Quanling of the Xie family again, open the door now!"
No matter how loudly Xie Quanling shouted, the attic door remained completely still.
Xie Quanling was also a little angry. When had she ever been wronged like this?
Within this Sanling Town, the four major families she represents are not people that just anyone can offend.
"Someone come here!"
Soon, several cultivators gathered around.
"Break down this door!"
"yes!"
Just as they were about to make their move, several cultivators descended from the pavilion above.
They blocked Xie Quanling's men.
"Stop! Fengpiao Pavilion, how dare you run wild like this! I think you'd better not be so arrogant!"
Xie Quanling sneered, "Fengpiao Pavilion? I've never even heard of it, yet you dare to cause trouble here?"
"I think you guys better not be so arrogant!"
The two sides were immediately enraged and the tension was palpable. Seeing this, the people around knew that a fight was about to break out, and they all retreated.
Seeing this, Yu Changsheng also crossed his arms and watched the commotion.
Since this matter doesn't concern me, I naturally won't get involved.
Xie Quanling waved her hand and said, "Fengpiao Pavilion, is it? Today I'll show you that in Sanling Town, you can't afford to offend the Xie family!"
"Smash his dilapidated attic!"
In an instant, a storm swept in, spiritual energy surged, sword light flashed, and fists and feet flew without a trace.
The two sides clashed instantly, and the combined power of the several Purple Mansion cultivators was terrifying.
The attack quickly spread to the surrounding area.
The pavilion also faintly shimmered with light, clearly indicating that a defensive array was protecting it from the outside.
Yu Changsheng, who was also watching the commotion, was puzzled and asked Lin Hao, "Senior, what is the background of this Feng Piao Pavilion?"
"How come I've never heard of such a force before?"
Lin Hao also showed a thoughtful expression, "Feng Piao Pavilion, I seem to have heard of it before, but I remember it was just an insignificant small force, and I don't remember having a master with the Nascent Soul cultivation level in charge."
"Unless Fengpiao Pavilion has developed its own experts after so many years of development."
Yu Changsheng said, "So it seems that Feng Piao Pavilion has already appeared here before?"
"But since they're one of the forces that's been here for a long time, how dare they offend the four great families?"
After fighting for a while, the two sides suddenly stopped.
It's not because the outcome has already been determined, but because the Xie family's strength is clearly at a disadvantage.
After all, Xie Quanling did not anticipate the current situation when she came out.
Therefore, he did not bring many experts with him, less than ten in total.
There are only two experts at the Nascent Soul stage.
However, the opposing side had four Nascent Soul stage experts, and many more Purple Mansion stage experts.
This power is something even the four major families are very wary of.
At this moment, Xie Quanling also realized that something was wrong. After all, she had never heard of Feng Piao Pavilion having such strength in the vicinity of Sanling Town.
The terrifying power of these four Nascent Soul cultivators is beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
Xie Quanling angrily retorted, "How dare you! You really intend to attack the four great families!"
One of the Nascent Soul cultivators sneered, "You dare to call yourself one of the four great families? Do you even represent the four great families? You can't even represent the Xie family."
"What a joke! Trying to run wild on my Fengpiao Pavilion's head? They're practically asking for death!"
"Charge! Capture these women from the four great families alive! I want to see what these four families are capable of!"
Xie Quanling's expression changed drastically; she had only been joking, but she hadn't expected the other party to actually dare to make a move like that.
She herself wasn't afraid of anything, but she dared not let Wu Qianqian, who was beside her, be in any danger.
After all, Wu Qianqian came with her today at her own request.
But this mess turned out so badly that she really couldn't explain it to anyone.
Xie Quanling said to the Nascent Soul cultivator beside her:
"You two protect Wu Qianqian, and whatever you do, make sure she doesn't get hurt!"
"yes!"
Although both cultivators were Nascent Soul cultivators from the Xie family, they knew Wu Qianqian's identity and both nodded in agreement.
Those who had initially been watching the spectacle also realized that something terrible was about to happen.
Almost all of them dispersed and quickly left the place.
However, just as these people were about to leave, they were stopped by a large group of people.
The deployment of these people was very orderly, clearly a premeditated organization, which kept all the onlookers out.
"I told you to leave, but you all stayed and wouldn't leave."
"Trying to leave now? You're finished! Anyone who dares to take another step will be killed without mercy!"
The speaker was a master at the Nascent Soul stage, so his words carried considerable weight. In addition, almost all the people who came to join in the fun were cultivators below the Purple Mansion stage.
No one dared to disobey this person's words, and they all remained where they were.
Yu Changsheng whispered to Lin Hao beside him:
"Senior, please don't make a move yet. Let's assess the situation first."
Lin Hao nodded slightly; he was unwilling to take action unless absolutely necessary.
As for the safety of those four major families, it had nothing to do with him.
After all, Sanling Town is within the sphere of influence of the Third Elder, Wang Donghai, and has no connection with the Second Elder, Chenping Town.
Soon, the four Nascent Soul experts surrounded them at the same time.
Xie Quanling's two Nascent Soul guards also immediately made their move, with terrifying sword lights sweeping across the heavens and earth. The power of heaven and earth that a Nascent Soul expert can mobilize is far beyond what a Purple Mansion cultivator can achieve.
The violent tremors of magical energy even caused some of the weaker cultivators below to bleed from their mouths and noses, nearly losing consciousness.
Even some of the stronger cultivators had to exert all their magical power to barely resist the aftershocks.
Fortunately, these Nascent Soul cultivators seemed to have intentionally or unintentionally aimed their attacks upwards, minimizing the impact on those below.
As the six Nascent Soul experts gradually disappeared into the distance, Xie Quanling and the remaining guards began fighting against the remaining cultivators of Piaoyun Pavilion.
Unfortunately, the difference in strength between the two sides was too great. Soon, almost all the cultivators around Xie Quanling were injured, and two of them even died.
Seeing this, Yu Changsheng also felt it was time, so he said to Lin Hao who was standing beside him:
"Senior Lin, shall we make our move now? But it's best not to reveal too much of your strength. Get Xie Quanling away as soon as possible and cover the others' retreat. We'll meet up outside."
I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.
Lin Hao gave a soft "hmm" and then, like a ghost, rushed into the crowd of cultivators from the Floating Cloud Pavilion.
In the blink of an eye, heads were severed. Lin Hao's longsword, like a wheat-harvesting machine, sliced off heads one by one.
They acted swiftly and decisively, without any hesitation or delay.
Even those who were killed didn't get a clear look at the newcomer before their heads were severed.
Lin Hao simply said in a low voice, "Come with me!"
They then turned and attacked from another direction.
The remaining cultivators from Piaoyun Pavilion were also shocked, not expecting that there was such a master among the crowd. They immediately sent out a message talisman to ask for help.
Xie Quanling did not know the identity of the person who suddenly came to her rescue.
Having finally found a savior, they dared not hesitate for even a moment.
They immediately organized a group of men to follow Lin Hao and charge out. With a Nascent Soul expert leading the way, the pressure on the remaining people dropped dramatically, and they all had hope, so they fought desperately.
Instead, it deterred the Feng Piao Pavilion cultivators from launching a surprise attack, preventing them from doing anything to stop them.
Seeing this opportunity, Yu Changsheng also rushed over with the crowd.
When Xie Quanling saw someone approaching, she was initially nervous, but when she saw that it was actually Yu Changsheng, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
What angered Xie Quanling was that this group actually showed up.
However, the fact that he had been hiding all along and only appeared at this moment made Xie Quanling quite disdainful.
However, Yu Changsheng didn't care what Xie Quanling thought of him.
As long as we can escape at this time, that's all that matters.
At this moment, many other cultivators also realized that if they didn't run now, when would they?
They might not even be able to walk in a moment, so they all joined the breakout team.
The pressure on Xie Quanling, Yu Changsheng, and the others who were walking at the front also suddenly decreased.
After all, there were still many other cultivators behind them resisting the pursuit.
However, at that moment...
A terrifying aura suddenly appeared in the sky.
It turned out that a Nascent Soul expert who had learned about the situation here had rushed over immediately.
Every move he makes is a killing blow.
A terrifyingly huge curved blade swept across, instantly spraying blood and causing countless cultivators to perish in that instant.
Yu Changsheng was also startled.
This Nascent Soul cultivator's sweeping attack was aimed at all the fleeing cultivators.
More than thirty cultivators perished as soon as it ended.
However, Lin Hao immediately intervened, pointing his longsword and unleashing a sharp sword aura that pierced straight towards the sweeping blade aura.
The two magical forces collided, unleashing a terrifying magical energy explosion.
This also gave the few cultivators at the forefront a chance to await orders and immediately leave the area.
Lin Hao did not intend to linger in the fight and retreated immediately after the first move.
Even if that Nascent Soul cultivator wanted to catch up, he wouldn't be able to.
Looking down at the other cultivators who hadn't yet managed to escape, he roared, "Kill them all on the spot!"
A chorus of pitiful screams erupted at the scene; those who hadn't managed to escape also became victims of the blade.
A forest in the distance.
Yu Changsheng stopped and landed behind a large, hidden rock, where Lin Hao had been waiting for a long time.
No one was chasing them, and it seemed that the other party was not determined to arrest them.
Yu Changsheng looked at Xie Quanling, who had sustained minor injuries, and smiled:
"I wondered what Miss Xie wanted to see me about? Turns out she was just putting on this good show for me. It's truly an eye-opener for me."
"However, if it weren't for my senior's intervention today, Miss Xie would probably have gotten herself into serious trouble."
Xie Quanling sneered, "You call yourself a man? What were you doing hiding in the crowd the whole time?"
Yu Changsheng said, bewildered:
"Miss Xie and I only met once. There's no need for me to offend an unknown force for your sake, is there?"
"Besides, in the end, wasn't it I who asked this senior to help me rescue you?"
"Otherwise, even if Miss Xie doesn't perish at Fengpiao Pavilion, she'll probably be captured by them."
Even if you don't thank me, there's no need for you to complain about me, is there?
"Every wrong has its perpetrator, and every debt its debtor. Miss Xie should find a suitable person to vent her anger on, not do something as ungrateful as repaying kindness with enmity!"
Xie Quanling was speechless after hearing Yu Changsheng's words. She wanted to retort but knew she was in the wrong, so she simply stopped talking to Yu Changsheng.
Instead, he turned to Lin Hao, cupped his hands, and said:
"Thank you for saving me, senior."
Lin Hao nodded slightly without saying anything.
Yu Changsheng curled his lip. This frankness with Rui Cheng, who treated him with such arrogance, was truly opportunistic.
He did contribute something this time, yet he didn't even receive a thank-you gift.
Xie Quanling said, "This junior begs the senior to intervene one more time and rescue that girl; she is innocent."
Lin Hao frowned and said, "I can't help you."
Xie Quanling was still thinking of helping, but Yu Changsheng stopped her.
"Miss Xie, the most urgent matter is that asking this senior for help again won't help. Your Xie family doesn't need another Nascent Soul expert, does it?"
"Although it's quite a distance from Sanling Town, you can still call for help in time."
Xie Quanling gritted her teeth and looked at Yu Changsheng, though she still felt some hatred for him.
However, it must be said that Yu Changsheng's words do make sense.
The enemy outnumbers us, and even with Lin Hao's help, we might not be able to save them. It would be best to ask our family for help as soon as possible.
Xie Quanling immediately instructed her subordinates to request help from her family. Time was of the essence, and there was no time for further explanation.
Only one person was sent back to Sanling Town immediately to explain the situation in detail.
The letter only urged the family to provide support to the Nascent Soul stage expert as soon as possible. (End of Chapter)
