201: Chapter 201 The Celestial Fox's True Eyes Display Their Power
"Credibility? I only obey my Revered Master's orders."
Hui Yi's tone was cold as she raised the Dagger in her hand, locking onto the black-robed person.
"Revered Master?"
"Who is your Revered Master?!"
The black-robed person's expression changed, a bad premonition suddenly surging in her heart.
"It is I."
As a playful voice rang out, the snow-white Flying Sword once again rushed out from the Void Realm, its Sword Qi grim as it slashed toward the black-robed person.
Bang!!
The black-robed person swung her blade in a horizontal slash, but this time she was shaken and let out a muffled groan, retreating repeatedly. Her mask shattered into pieces, and blood seeped from the corners of her mouth, revealing a slightly youthful and pure face.
She looked only about fifteen or sixteen years old, but her eyes carried a sense of worldliness; clearly, her true age was nowhere near as young as her appearance suggested.
"It's you!?"
When the black-robed person saw Ji Taichang, her pupils shrank violently, revealing a look of utter disbelief!
"Damn it!!"
"I clearly paid to hire your Night Owl organization to assassinate him, so why are you teaming up with him to harm me!"
"How can your Night Owl organization not have even a bit of professional ethics!?"
The black-robed person was both shocked and furious, yet she made the correct reaction instantly—she turned and fled!
Buzz—
Ji Taichang's hands formed a seal, and the surrounding mountains and rivers lit up with dense Formation patterns. Countless runes emerged out of thin air, their light interweaving to instantly form a massive Formation that sealed the Void Realm!
Before the black-robed person could get far, she slammed headfirst into the Formation and was bounced back on the spot, her head ringing.
Immediately after, the whistling sound of breaking air rang out. The green Flying Sword and the white Flying Sword intertwined like meteors crossing the sky, swirling with grim killing intent as they slashed toward the black-robed person!
The black-robed person immediately swung her Scimitar, no longer concealing her cultivation. Her powerful eighth-level Void Refinement Stage cultivation erupted as she slashed out a massive flaming Sword Qi, colliding with the two Flying Swords and producing a deafening roar.
Hui Yi took a step back and quietly vanished from where she stood, perfectly merging into the Void Realm.
While the black-robed person was doing her best to resist the two Flying Swords, Hui Yi's figure appeared behind her like a ghost, silently swinging her Dagger and leaving a bone-deep wound on her back, blood splattering.
The black-robed person turned and slashed out, sending Hui Yi flying with blood seeping from the corner of her mouth.
But with a flash of her body, Hui Yi vanished like a ghost again, appearing and disappearing unpredictably!
As one of the top assassins of the Night Owl organization, her frontal combat strength might not be considered very strong, but she was extremely skilled at stealth and sneak attacks!
"Stop!!"
"I am the Third Elder of the Chiyang Sect, Du Mengyue!"
"I have the Chiyang Sect's unique mark within my Primordial Spirit. If you dare to kill me, you will surely be possessed by the mark and be hunted relentlessly by the Chiyang Sect!"
"My Chiyang Sect is a first-rate power in the Eastern Desolate Region, with several Body Integration Stage Old Ancestors presiding over it!"
"Even the leader of your Night Owl organization wouldn't dare to easily offend our Chiyang Sect. Hui Yi, do you really want to provoke a powerful enemy for the Night Owl organization!"
The black-robed person, Du Mengyue, shouted sharply, but her slightly trembling hands still betrayed her internal cowardice.
She couldn't defeat Ji Taichang and Hui Yi now, nor could she escape or even contact the outside world. This unprecedented sense of mortal crisis made her heart tremble with fear!
All people fear death, let alone a high-ranking Elder of the Chiyang Sect who had a wonderful life ahead of her; she was even less willing to die!
"You talk too much."
Ji Taichang's tone was indifferent, and a mysterious white light began to glow in his eyes.
In a daze, it seemed as if a phantom of a nine-tailed Heavenly Fox that blotted out the sun emerged behind him. Infinite worlds of illusions intertwined and rotated within his eyes, like a god gazing upon the mortal realm with immense majesty!
Under the gaze of the Heavenly Fox True Pupil,
Du Mengyue's body suddenly stiffened, her eyes became somewhat hollow, and her consciousness fell into layer upon layer of illusory worlds.
But soon, her body trembled slightly and her eyelashes flickered. Her Primordial Spirit strength was astonishing, and she actually showed faint signs of breaking free.
Pfft!!
Hui Yi appeared silently and stabbed her blade into the back of Du Mengyue's head from behind, instantly dealing a heavy blow to her Sea of Consciousness and Primordial Spirit. This caused her to spray out a large mouthful of blood, and her aura instantly became withered.
Once her Primordial Spirit weakened, she no longer had the strength to break free from the illusion of the Heavenly Fox True Pupil!
Ji Taichang stood tall in mid-air, his long hair flying and his dark-green robe snapping in the wind. A mysterious holy radiance flowed within his eyes as strands of light continuously intertwined and poured into Du Mengyue's Primordial Spirit.
Hui Yi, on the other hand, returned to Ji Taichang's side, her gaze respectful and fanatical.
In just a few dozen breaths of time,
Du Mengyue reopened her eyes, a mysterious white light flashing through them briefly. She knelt respectfully toward Ji Taichang: "This servant, Du Mengyue, pays respects to the Revered Master!"
Yun Qiyao, observing in secret, couldn't help but have her eyelids twitch upon seeing this scene.
"The legendary Heavenly Fox True Pupil is truly bizarre to the extreme!"
Both Hui Yi and Du Mengyue's cultivations were much higher than Ji Taichang's.
Yet the two women had no resistance whatsoever before Ji Taichang; they were refined in an instant and forcibly taken as servants!
Such methods could be called eerie and terrifying!
Ji Taichang said calmly: "Speak. Besides hiring the Night Owl organization for assassination, how else does your Chiyang Sect plan to deal with me?"
"Yes."
Du Mengyue's tone was respectful as she revealed the Chiyang Sect's entire plan without hiding anything.
The Chiyang Sect had prepared several plans. The one most worthy of Ji Taichang's vigilance was that an Old Ancestor of the Chiyang Sect had already taken a heavy sum of money to the Lietian Holy Land to request their assistance!
The yang yao disk was the Chiyang Sect's sect-protecting treasure and held extraordinary significance for them. Even if it meant offending Nan Yin, who was an Old Ancestor of the Shuiyue Holy Land, they would not give up!
"Lietian Holy Land?"
"That is indeed a bit troublesome..."
Ji Taichang murmured softly, feeling that things were a bit tricky.
His good Revered Master, Nan Yin, came from the Shuiyue Holy Land, so he could negotiate somewhat, but it was unlikely that Nan Yin would stay by his side to protect him forever.
"Speaking of which, when was your Chiyang Sect's yang yao disk lost?"
Ji Taichang recalled a question.
Du Mengyue replied truthfully: "Five hundred thousand years ago. At that time, an Old Ancestor of the Chiyang Sect took the yang yao disk out to explore a set of ancient ruins, but he disappeared abruptly, and the yang yao disk vanished along with him."
Ji Taichang weighed the yang yao disk in his hand, lost in thought.
Did the yang yao disk rewarded by the System appear out of thin air as a copy, or did it take the lost yang yao disk and give it to him?
"Whatever, now that it's in my hands, it's mine!"
"It seems it's time to go find Aunt Meng for some help."
"I'd like to see if the Lietian Holy Land will offend two Great Holy Lands at once for the sake of the Chiyang Sect!"
Ji Taichang quickly thought of a countermeasure, a cold smile curling at the corners of his mouth!
"Go back. Lurk within the Chiyang Sect and contact me secretly as soon as there is news."
Ji Taichang waved his hand at Du Mengyue.
