124: The teleportation array is blocked

Lin Feng looked at the two stunning women bowing before him; although Yan Li was not as breathtaking as Yao'er, she was still one of the most beautiful women in the Human Realm.

With a calm expression, he extended his hand, and a gentle force lifted the two women.

"I see that Miss Yan is still somewhat weak. Why don't the two of you rest well here for the night? Once you are well-rested, you can leave with me."

Upon hearing this, a hint of worry appeared on Yao'er's beautiful face. She took a step forward, her voice tinged with anxiety: "Senior, this place is, after all, within the Huangsha Sect. The longer we sisters stay, the greater the danger. If the situation becomes critical, Senior, you don't need to worry about us two. It is already a great kindness that Senior has helped us sisters this far!"

Yan Li glanced at her Junior Sister beside her, and in her beautiful eyes, looking at the man in green, there was a sparkle she had never seen before.

Her heart stirred slightly, and she also spoke up, "Junior Sister is right. The kindness of Senior, we two sisters will never forget, and we must not let Senior fall into danger because of us."

Lin Feng's gaze swept over the two women, his calm face showing no ripple of emotion.

"There's no need to worry about this Lord," he said indifferently. "If the situation becomes impossible, this Lord has his own way of escaping."

Yao'er finally breathed a sigh of relief and said no more. She helped the still-weak Yan Li to the side of the bed, and the two sisters lay embracing each other.

Lin Feng walked to a nearby chair and sat down, his eyes slightly closed, his mind sinking into his Sea of Consciousness.

He began to silently comprehend a trace of the profound Space Law he had coincidentally perceived in that Inner Universe not long ago. If he could thoroughly understand even a trace, he wondered what changes would occur to his Nascent Soul Stage instantaneous movement.

The room fell into silence for a time.

Yao'er lay on her side on the bed, but she had no intention of sleeping. She quietly turned her head, secretly observing the figure sitting quietly with closed eyes, illuminated by the faint light filtering through the window lattice.

His side profile was distinct, his nose bridge high, his lips tightly sealed; even in meditation, he exuded an indescribable charm. Yao'er felt her heartbeat uncontrollably quicken, and her cheeks also felt a little hot.

And Yan Li, lying beside her, simply watched her Junior Sister, who was experiencing her first stirrings of love. In the depths of her beautiful eyes, a complex, hard-to-read emotion flashed, finally turning into an almost inaudible sigh.

The night passed without incident.

As dawn broke, the entire Huangsha Sect was quickly enveloped in a festive atmosphere.

Inside and outside the mountain gate, lanterns were hung, and red silks fluttered. Disciples, dressed in new clothes, bustled about, clearly making final preparations for Yellow Sand Forefather's five-hundredth birthday celebration.

At the entrance of Huangsha Sect, the Huangsha Gate Young Master, whose arm had been healed by Spirit Medicine but whose face was still somewhat pale, was leading a group of Elders of the Sect, standing there to welcome guests from all directions.

However, most of the Cultivators who came to offer birthday wishes merely glanced at him and walked straight in. Some people didn't even bother to greet him; they simply dropped off their birthday gifts and then went off to find familiar Fellow Daoists to chat with.

The smile on the Huangsha Gate Young Master's face, which had been full of youthful vigor at first, gradually stiffened, finally turning a dark green. Standing there, he felt as if every gaze cast upon him was a silent mockery, making him feel as if he had thorns in his back.

Just as he was about to lose his composure due to the humiliation in his heart, a majestic voice sounded from behind him.

"Still standing here making a fool of yourself! Prepare to welcome your Grandmaster!"

The Huangsha Gate Young Master jolted, turning his head to see his father's gloomy face.

"Father!"

The Huangsha Sect Master ignored him, simply gazing intently at the sky, his eyes filled with a trace of reverence and nervousness.

Grandmaster!

The Huangsha Gate Young Master's heart skipped a beat. This was also the first time he had the Opportunity to meet this legendary Grandmaster. That was a high and mighty Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator!

For a moment, he even forgot his hatred for Lin Feng, his heart replaced by excitement.

Just then, a dazzling starlight streaked across the sky, like a falling meteor, accurately landing in front of the mountain gate.

The light dispersed, revealing a middle-aged man dressed in the uniform of an Xinggong Elder. His face was ordinary, but when his eyes opened and closed, stars seemed to revolve within them, and an invisible pressure emanated, causing all the Cultivators present to feel a surge of trepidation.

The Huangsha Sect Master dared not show any neglect, quickly stepped forward, and respectfully knelt on the ground.

"Disciple Huangsha respectfully welcomes Master's arrival!"

Behind him, the Huangsha Gate Young Master also quickly knelt, bowing his head to the ground.

"Grand-Disciple respectfully welcomes Grandmaster!"

The middle-aged man merely gave a faint "Hmm," and with a wave of his hand, a Magic Treasure shimmering with colorful light flew to the Huangsha Sect Master.

"This shall be your birthday gift."

Afterward, his gaze swept across the entire scene, lingering for a moment on the descendants of several other Nascent Soul Old Ancestors who had also come to offer birthday wishes. A gentle smile appeared on his face, and he stepped forward to exchange pleasantries with them.

The Qingyang Sect Young Master was prominently among them, talking animatedly with the Xinggong Elder, enjoying the envious gazes of those around him.

And the Huangsha Gate Young Master, completely ignored, his face had become extremely unsightly, his fists clenching in his sleeves, making cracking sounds.

With the arrival of this Xinggong Elder, the main guest, the birthday banquet officially began.

On the high platform, songs and dances filled the air, and the Disciples of Huangsha Sect enthusiastically performed various entertaining acts.

However, the Xinggong Elder, seated at the head, and the Qingyang Sect Young Master and others, seated in secondary positions, all seemed somewhat uninterested. This small Huangsha Sect, whether in terms of grandeur or the Aptitude of its Disciples, was far inferior to their respective Sects.

It wasn't until a group of graceful female Disciples of Huangsha Sect came on stage to perform a dance that the Qingyang Sect Young Master's eyes brightened slightly.

But that was all.

In his opinion, although these female Disciples had some beauty, they were ultimately common and vulgar, far inferior to the Cauldrons he had abducted.

Not long after, the lengthy and tedious birthday banquet finally ended, and the guests began to disperse one after another.

The Xinggong Elder was invited by the Huangsha Sect Master into the inner hall, seemingly discussing some confidential matters.

At this moment, the Qingyang Sect Young Master suddenly remembered something.

That man in green!

He looked around and realized that from beginning to end, he had not seen that person at the birthday banquet.

His heart suddenly pounded, and an ominous premonition surged within him. He didn't bother to bid farewell to other Fellow Daoists, immediately turned around, and quickly rushed towards the guest courtyard.

When he pushed open the door of that guest room, all he saw was an empty room.

The person had already left!

"Bastard!"

The Qingyang Sect Young Master's face changed drastically; he finally realized that he had been tricked!

He immediately turned and rushed towards the mountain gate.

At this moment, the Huangsha Sect Master was respectfully seeing off the Xinggong Elder outside the mountain gate.

"Nephew Qingyang, why are you so anxious?" The Xinggong Elder looked at the Qingyang Sect Young Master, who was rushing over, and slightly frowned.

The Qingyang Sect Young Master dared not be presumptuous, quickly bowed, and exaggeratedly recounted the events of yesterday.

"Elder, Junior Martial Uncle! Yesterday, Brother Huangsha had a conflict with an unfamiliar mysterious Cultivator. Your nephew saw that the person's cultivation was unfathomably deep, and fearing that Brother would suffer, I pretended to invite him into the residence, intending to ask the Elder to decide today. Who knew that person would be so cunning, taking my two Dao Companions and secretly slipping away during the birthday banquet!"

The Huangsha Sect Master's face darkened upon hearing this. He called over a guard standing nearby.

"Do you have any impression of the person who just left?"

The Qingyang Sect Young Master immediately added, "That person was dressed in green, with two women accompanying him!"

The guard recalled for a moment, then quickly nodded.

"Reporting to Sect Leader, a green-robed Senior did indeed leave with two Fairies towards the teleportation array just now. They didn't look like Cultivators from this island."

Upon hearing this, the Qingyang Sect Young Master made to give chase.

"Nephew Qing, wait!" The Huangsha Sect Master stopped him, "You said that person's cultivation was above yours; this old man will go with you!"

A look of joy appeared on the Qingyang Sect Young Master's face. The Huangsha Sect Master was a renowned Core Formation Peak Cultivator, and with his help, their chances would be much greater.

"Oh? Is that so?" The Xinggong Elder at the side suddenly became interested. "Since I have nothing to do, this Lord will also go and see this unfamiliar Cultivator."

The two were both greatly startled upon hearing this, and then the Qingyang Sect Young Master's heart was filled with wild joy.

With a Nascent Soul Stage Elder personally taking action, that person would not be able to escape even if he had wings!

"There's no time to lose," the Xinggong Elder said indifferently, and with a wave of his large sleeve, a gentle but irresistible force swept up the Qingyang Sect Young Master, his attendant, and the Huangsha Sect Master. "This Lord will take you to pursue him."

A shocking streak of light shot into the sky, tearing through the air, and sped towards the direction of the teleportation array.

At the same time, in front of the teleportation array on Kumen Island.

Lin Feng was with Yao'er and Yan Li, preparing to take the teleportation array to Wanming Island to find Ling Yuling.

Looking at the long queue in front, Lin Feng was a little speechless.

Due to the birthday celebration of the Huangsha Sect Master, a large number of foreign Cultivators had gathered here, and now they were all leaving at once, causing the teleportation array to be jammed.

"Senior, we..." Yao'er looked at the long queue ahead, feeling a little uneasy.

Lin Feng did not answer. He suddenly looked up, gazing in the direction of Huangsha Sect.

In his Divine Sense, he had already clearly sensed that the Nascent Soul Elder was rapidly pursuing him.

Lin Feng felt a little helpless.

It seems that he won't be able to leave without showing off a bit.
