52: Chapter 52 Three Sects Attack

Lin Xueyue, Yang Yao, and the others were startled and suddenly looked up!

Lin Xueyue acted decisively, immediately activating the Sect Master's token to open the Protective Sect Array.

With a loud "boom," dense Formation runes and symbols lit up on the ground around the Qingyun Sect, interlacing to form a massive Formation that enveloped the Qingyun Sect's territory.

"Wuding Sect, Yumen Sect, Leiting Sect!"

"What business do your three Sects have with my Qingyun Sect?"

Lin Xueyue rose into the air. Seeing the flags and emblems of the three Sects on the Cloud Ships, her gaze turned cold.

"What business?"

"Sect Master Lin should be very clear about that..."

A bearded middle-aged man stepped out onto the deck of the Wuding Sect's Cloud Ship, a playful smile on his face. "Your Qingyun Sect's Grand Elder Yang Weile has fallen into the Demonic Path and become a peerless Devil Head. Naturally, we are here to slay the demon!"

Lin Xueyue, Yang Yao, and the others felt their hearts sink upon hearing this!

They had blocked the news immediately; how did these three Sects know this secret?

Could it be... there is a spy within the Sect?!

But there was no time to investigate for spies now.

Lin Xueyue said in a deep voice, "Nonsense! Previously, a demonic rogue Cultivator infiltrated my Qingyun Sect. It was our previous Sect Master and Grand Elder, working together with Senior Ji Aotian, who killed that demonic Cultivator!"

"The Grand Elder sacrificed himself heroically for this. How dare you slander him!"

Even though Lin Xueyue hated Yang Weile to the core in her heart.

She could not make the truth of his fall to demonhood public at this time; otherwise, it would be a huge trouble for the Qingyun Sect!

It would be equivalent to giving other Sects an excuse to investigate and suppress the Qingyun Sect!

"Heh... it seems Sect Master Lin is soft all over, except for her mouth, which is the toughest part."

On the Yumen Sect's Cloud Ship, a man clad in silver armor stepped forward. With a wicked light in his eyes, he stared straight at Lin Xueyue's mature and graceful figure, unable to resist licking his lips!

"Sect Master Lin, stop being stubborn. We already know about your Grand Elder's fall to demonhood."

"We seriously suspect that the Qingyun Sect is colluding with the Demonic Cult!"

"Please open the defensive Formation, Sect Master Lin, and let us in to inspect."

A powerhouse also appeared on the Leiting Sect's Cloud Ship. His black hair stood on end, and lightning patterns flickered on his forehead. His tone was majestic and overbearing!

"I said the Grand Elder did not fall to demonhood!"

Fury blazed in Lin Xueyue's beautiful eyes as she said word by word, "If you dare to force your way into my Qingyun Sect, it will be equivalent to declaring war!"

These three Sects had clearly come prepared.

They claimed it was an inspection, but if she really let them into the Qingyun Sect, who knew what they would do!

The world of cultivation had always been one of deception and the law of the jungle!

"Declare war? Oh my... I'm so scared."

The silver-armored man from the Yumen Sect patted his chest and said sarcastically, "Your Qingyun Sect's strongest old fogey and the Grand Elder are both dead. With just you nobodies, what are you going to use to declare war on us?"

"Hahaha... how truly ridiculous!"

"However, I see that Sect Master Lin still possesses quite the charm. If you come over and accompany me into the room for a proper 'investigation,' I might be in a good mood and speak up for your Qingyun Sect."

As soon as these words were spoken, fury welled up in the hearts of Lin Xueyue and the others, their fists clenched tight!

The powerhouse from the Leiting Sect also said coldly, "Either you open the Protective Sect Array, or we blast it open!"

As his voice fell.

Hundreds of Cultivators with powerful Auras appeared on the three Cloud Ships of the Wuding Sect, Yumen Sect, and Leiting Sect.

Each Sect had dispatched four Golden Core Stage powerhouses, totaling twelve in all!

In particular, the three leading powerhouses had cultivation levels of seventh-tier Golden Core Stage and two eighth-tier Golden Core Stage!!

Such formidable strength was enough to annihilate the entire Qingyun Sect!

"Not good!!"

Sensing the cultivation Auras of the powerhouses from the three Sects, the faces of Lin Xueyue, Yang Yao, and the others changed drastically, their hearts sinking to the bottom!

"They aren't here to investigate Yang Weile's fall to demonhood at all; that's just an excuse!"

"They want to destroy the Qingyun Sect and divide our resources and territory!!"

It was as if a bolt of lightning flashed through Lin Xueyue's mind, and she instantly understood their plan!

If it were truly just to investigate Yang Weile's fall to demonhood, there would be no need to dispatch so many powerhouses!

"Xiao Chang... where are you?"

Lin Xueyue was both angry and helpless, missing Ji Taichang immensely in her heart!

If only Ji Taichang were here...

"Sect Master Lin, be a good girl and open the Protective Sect Array."

"Otherwise... once we blast open the array, you're going to suffer quite a lot!"

The silver-armored man from the Yumen Sect chuckled, his gaze lewd and greedy, staring straight at Lin Xueyue and... the equally beautiful and moving Yang Yao beside her!

Many powerhouses from the three Sects also burst into laughter, their gazes cruel and greedy as they stared at the people of the Qingyun Sect.

With the Qingyun Sect's Grand Elder and old Sect Master dead, no one could hold up the banner. This was the perfect opportunity to destroy and divide the Qingyun Sect!!

"Is that so?"

Just then, a cold voice suddenly rang out: "Who did you say was going to suffer?"

As that voice sounded, a Mysterious Yellow light pierced through the sky like a falling star hitting the ground, hurtling toward the silver-armored man with thunderous momentum!!

The silver-armored man's face changed abruptly as he felt an intense sense of mortal danger!

In this critical moment, he let out a roar, and a silver spear appeared in his hand, held horizontally in front of him in an attempt to block that Mysterious Yellow light.

Bang!!

Immediately following was a deafening roar!

The Mysterious Yellow light transformed into an ancient tower, emitting a heavy and towering Aura. It forced the silver spear in the man's hand to bend, and the terrifying force smashed him from mid-air to the ground with a loud blast!

The solid stone ground was smashed into a huge deep pit; the earth shook, and dust flew everywhere!

The armor on the silver-armored man shattered, his chest caved in, and he immediately spat out a large mouthful of blood, suffering a heavy blow!!

"Who is it?!"

This sudden turn of events gave the Cultivators of the three Sects a huge fright!

One must know.

The silver-armored man was at the seventh-tier Golden Core Stage, yet he was severely injured in an instant. How shocking!

They all drew their weapons and Magical Artifacts, as if facing a great enemy, staring intently ahead.

Under the wary and solemn gazes of many Cultivators.

Ji Taichang, wearing an Ink-Green robe and a bronze mask, his black hair flying in the wind, arrived by treading through the air with his hands behind his back!

His figure was tall and straight, and his whole being emitted an indescribable pressure and grand spirit, giving people an invisible sense of oppression!!

Even those Golden Core Stage powerhouses tensed up, sensing a great threat from Ji Taichang!

"He is that mysterious powerhouse, Ji Aotian?!"

The Cultivators of the three Sects felt a chill in their hearts, a trace of wariness flashing in their eyes.

"Xiao Chang!!"

"You're finally back..."

Lin Xueyue's body trembled slightly, her eyes brimming with tears as she finally let out a long sigh of relief!
