Crafting an Immortal Race with Daily Hexagrams

Chapter 387: Chapter 206: Southern Border Invasion

After Jiang Xiuqi left, Le Zhiyi glanced at Wei Qiuling, whose lower abdomen was slightly swollen, and after a brief pause, she said, ”The Golden Core Assembly has ended, and the sect currently has no major affairs.”

”You and Wen’an should tidy up and return to Yangnao Land in a couple of days.”

Upon hearing this, Wei Qiuling’s complexion slightly changed, as she understood her master’s intention.

Now that the assembly was over, it was time for reckoning.

”Master, let me and Wen’an stay to assist you?”

Le Zhiyi shook her head with a smile and said:

”They are just some petty people. When Luoxia Mountain takes action, no one will stop us.”

Changing the subject, she continued seriously: ”I’m not trying to drive you away this time.”

”Qiyun Valley has sent word that a few days ago, Dean Yao Lin of Cliff Mountain Courtyard took two hundred disciples to Yangnao Land.”

Meeting her gaze, Shen Wen’an frowned slightly.

The reason the Shen Family’s relationship with Qiyun Valley had deteriorated to this point was largely due to significant issues within Qiyun Valley.

But the most direct cause was his conflict with Cliff Mountain Courtyard.

Yao Lin was a person who held grudges, and now that she went to Yangnao Land, precautions must be taken.

Wei Qiuling’s face also changed upon hearing this.

Given the current situation, there was no reason for Qiyun Valley to fall out with the Shen Family, but Yao Lin’s character was an unpredictable factor.

If she suddenly went mad and hurt members of the Shen Family.

Even if Qiyun Valley were to be eradicated afterwards, what good would it do?

After some thought, Wei Qiuling turned to Shen Wen’an and said, ”I’ll take mother back to rest first. Do you and Chongming want to inform Lingshan Sword Immortal?”

Huang Lingshan specifically instructed them to visit Cyan Ruo Sword House before returning to Yangnao Land.

Shen Wen’an looked at the sky outside the house which was completely dark, and said solemnly, ”Tomorrow we’ll go.”

”When Chongming and I return from Cyan Ruo Sword House, we’ll immediately head back to Yangnao Land.”

Wei Qiuling nodded slightly, then supported the still somewhat drowsy Hu Yufen as they left the wooden house.

...

Western Wilderness.

When Yao Lin rushed back to the Magma Lake with Tong Tianhe’s corpse, she found that the remaining six corpse cultivators had already fled. Only some corpse puppets, which she had previously slammed into the hard ground with a single palm, were still struggling.

Even after extending her divine sense to the maximum range, she found no trace of the six remaining corpse cultivators, and her face, which was already livid, darkened further!

Tong Tianhe had mentioned before his death that they were from the Yin Corpse Sect in the Southern Border.

After they escaped, if they reported back to their sect, the secret of this Magma Lake would be exposed.

At that time, if a strong cultivator from the Yin Corpse Sect arrived, not only would the Magma Lake be lost, but Qiyun Valley’s operations in the Western Wilderness might also take a hit.

With this in mind, Yao Lin immediately tossed Tong Tianhe’s body beside the Magma Lake.

”Since these people are from the Southern Border and know they cannot defeat me, their first thought must be to flee back there to save their lives.”

With this assumption, Yao Lin quickly used a spell to manipulate the wind and chased south of the Magma Lake!

In the desolate desert, a group of six, along with fourteen copper corpses and numerous iron corpses, was hastily fleeing forward.

Since Yao Lin appeared and captured Tong Tianhe, they knew they could no longer stay in this place.

Having divided Tong Tianhe’s fourteen copper corpse puppets, along with the iron corpses they previously refined, they indeed had ample gains.

They planned to immediately return to the Southern Border to report the breach in the Void Combination Corridor Array to their sect, and informing their master of the Magma Lake’s existence would surely earn them many rewards.

Although these individuals were quite cautious, their greed was undeniable.

With their collective cultivation, if they had not taken these corpse puppets along, or even deprecated the iron corpses, they would have had enough time to escape to the Southern Border.

But they were reluctant to part with these corpse puppets.

Carrying these burdens naturally slowed their pace.

In the void, Yao Lin swiftly approached using wind manipulation, and with just one look, she spotted the grand procession below. A sweep of her divine sense brought a pleased smile to her face.

”I’ve found you!”

Her hand gesture shifted slightly, and she swooped down like an eagle discovering its prey!

Below, the six corpse cultivators’ expressions instantly changed upon feeling the divine sense sweeping over them!

”Not good! That crazy woman has caught up with us!”

”Damn it! How did she know we headed in this direction?”

”You fool! Have you refined your brain into a corpse too?”

”I said we should take a detour instead of heading back directly, but none of you listened!”

”Senior Brother Liao, Senior Brother Qi, each of you grabbed three of the most powerful copper corpses; quickly, think of a way to stop that crazy woman, she’s descending upon us!”

Seeing Yao Lin approaching to kill, the six became flustered and began blaming and scheming against one another.

In the crowd, Liao and Qi also wore dire expressions.

When Yao Lin appeared last time, she specifically targeted the highest-cultivation member, Tong Tianhe.

Her current pursuit left them unsure if she aimed to kill them all this time or, as before, was just going for specific targets.

”At a time like this, you’re still scheming against each other!”

Faced with potential annihilation, a corpse cultivator surnamed Qi suddenly shouted, disrupting their selfish calculations.

Making eye contact, each recognized the dire situation. With Yao Lin’s late-stage Fetal Breathing cultivation, without working together, they stood no chance.

”Listen to Senior Brother Qi!”

”We fight!”

Determination flashed in their eyes, and they ceased their escape, instead deciding to fight Yao Lin with their lives.
