Chapter 2156: Chapter 2154: [Flying Flower Zen Temple—Sang Qing]

Princess Zi Xuan’s appearance initially caused some concern among the martial artists leading the invasion of the Flying Flower Zen Temple. It wasn’t just because of Princess Zi Xuan’s formidable combat strength, but also because her return reinvigorated the disciples of the Flying Flower Zen Temple, who had previously been defeated and injured. Suddenly, their spirits were lifted, and with blood boiling together, they swore to coexist with the Flying Flower Zen Temple, to fight to the death, which instilled fear in the invading martial artists!

Often, the enemy’s strength isn’t what’s most terrifying; it’s the unyielding battle intent, the resolve to fight to the end, that truly frightens people. And now, with Princess Zi Xuan’s return, the female disciples of the Flying Flower Zen Temple gained such cohesion!

However, Zhao Qiuyan, a scandalous woman among the young strong loose cultivators in the Northern State Territory, plunged the Flying Flower Zen Temple into a life-and-death crisis with her appearance. Zhao Qiuyan is a shameless woman who specializes in luring powerful male martial artists, selling her charms and body to receive protection from these powerful male martial artists, and Bai Wuji from the Demon Blood Sect is Zhao Qiuyan’s male protector!

Zhao Qiuyan is unscrupulous, shameless, and despicable, someone many people don’t wish to converse with or associate with. But behind Zhao Qiuyan is Bai Wuji from the Demon Blood Sect, a notorious figure among all young martial artists in the Northern State Territory, coupled with the Demon Blood Sect’s viciousness, there truly aren’t many willing to provoke this woman!

When Princess Zi Xuan blocked Zhao Qiuyan, the martial artists instigated by Zhao Qiuyan surged forward, unleashing powerful slaughter power, all intent on killing the female disciples of the Flying Flower Zen Temple, completely severing the lineage of the Flying Flower Zen Temple!

In such circumstances, Princess Zi Xuan gave up battling Zhao Qiuyan, abandoning the idea of harshly punishing Zhao Qiuyan, the vicious woman. Her first thought was to protect her fellow sister disciples of the Flying Flower Zen Temple, even if it meant putting herself in danger, even if she faced annihilation!

”Hmph, truly ignorant of life and death. No matter how powerful you are, you can’t stop the combined strikes of these many people!” Zhao Qiuyan sneered coldly.

Boom!

With a loud explosion, the invading young martial artists, none of insufficient strength, all unleashed formidable power on Princess Zi Xuan. Although Princess Zi Xuan is very strong in single combat, the young martial artists here aren’t her match. But with twenty-plus young strong entities attacking, Princess Zi Xuan felt significant pressure, a feeling of being unable to hold back!

Yet, just when everyone thought Princess Zi Xuan was doomed, even Princess Zi Xuan herself felt she might face annihilation, the female disciples of the Flying Flower Zen Temple couldn’t help but cry out in pain.

”Zi Xuan...”

”Don’t Zi Xuan...”

”Zi Xuan, for us sister disciples...”

”We’ll live and die with you...”

Boom!

Blown away - not Princess Zi Xuan, but those twenty-odd invading martial artists, including Zhao Qiuyan, were all blown away, astonishingly gazing at the scene before them, all dumbfounded, including Princess Zi Xuan herself, unaware of what happened!

”Zi Xuan, come in!” A gentle female voice arose!

”Master, it’s Master...”

”Master hasn’t passed away, Master hasn’t passed away!”

”We knew, Master was surely alive, our Flying Flower Zen Temple is saved!”

”Anyone who dares to harm our Flying Flower Zen Temple will face retribution tenfold!”

Sang Qing, the Sect Leader of Flying Flower Zen Temple, her voice appeared, invigorating all female disciples of the Flying Flower Zen Temple, making them all passionately emotional, with tears brimming, because the master’s survival meant they had a source of confidence. The lineages threatening the Flying Flower Zen Temple suddenly felt apprehensive, daunted to act recklessly toward the Flying Flower Zen Temple, which was truly a sentiment, a belief for these disciples!

”Master!” Princess Zi Xuan softly called toward the pavilion not far away.

”Come in!” Sang Qing’s voice sounded, speaking gently.

”But Master, these people...” Princess Zi Xuan was somewhat worried about leaving, wondering if these martial artists pouncing would harm her fellow sister disciples of the Flying Flower Zen Temple?

”Rest assured, with Master here, they wouldn’t dare do anything. If anyone dares to make a move, I’ll go to their place of inheritance to seek justice!” Sang Qing’s voice was very gentle, yet it intimidated the martial artists present, causing their faces to turn pale and even take a few steps back!

In the entire Northern State Territory, the inheritance of the Flying Flower Zen Temple is exceedingly powerful, and Sang Qing is one of the top elders in the Northern State Territory. This is well known, otherwise, for so many years, the location where the Flying Flower Zen Temple controls the Immortal Origin Liquid, a coveted item by anyone and any inheritance, would have faced a great catastrophe long ago if Sang Qing wasn’t strong enough. The location of the Immortal Origin Liquid would have been unprotected for a long time!

Princess Zi Xuan cast a fierce glare at these retreating invading martial artists as both a warning and a threat before proceeding to the nearby pavilion!

The pavilion was not very grand in appearance, yet it was the place where Sang Qing has always resided. During Princess Zi Xuan’s recent trip outside, Sang Qing had not emerged from the pavilion, claiming to be in seclusion. In fact, only a few female disciples of the Flying Flower Zen Temple knew that Master Sang Qing had already reached the point of exhaustion and might sit in final meditation at any time. This posed a significant challenge for the entire Flying Flower Zen Temple; one could easily imagine the dire situation the Temple would face upon Master Sang Qing’s demise, possibly even the eradication of their inheritance, making survival difficult for all Flying Flower Zen Temple disciples!

Several months passed, and the pavilion where Sang Qing resided remained surrounded by a rune array. No disciple of the Flying Flower Zen Temple was allowed to enter the pavilion without Sang Qing’s permission, nor do they possess the ability to enter. Since Sang Qing entered the pavilion for seclusion, it’s been several months with no sound from her and no appearance. Not only has the outside world been buzzing with rumors, even internally, some female disciples are speculating on whether Master Sang Qing has already passed away!

Princess Zi Xuan arrived in front of Master Sang Qing’s pavilion, and the rune array at the pavilion’s entrance automatically opened a gap. After a moment of hesitation, Princess Zi Xuan entered!

”Master...” Princess Zi Xuan walked into the pavilion and immediately saw Sang Qing meditating on a cushion, prompting a somewhat heartbroken cry from her.

”Zi Xuan, it’s good that you’re back!” Sang Qing opened her eyes and said with a smile.

”Master, you’re alright; I’m so happy!” Princess Zi Xuan said joyfully.

When Princess Zi Xuan saw her master, Sang Qing, she noticed that her master showed no signs of aging but was rather energetic. Perhaps Master had found a way to extend her life and wouldn’t pass away immediately. There was no better news for her and the entire Flying Flower Zen Temple!

Sang Qing looked at Princess Zi Xuan and then laughed, saying, ”You must have gained much from your journey out there!”

”Yes, I went to the East State, Southern State, and West State!” Princess Zi Xuan said with a bitter smile.

”Let’s not speak of other matters now. Release the person from your jade flute; let me examine his injuries!” Sang Qing glanced at Princess Zi Xuan and said.

”Master... you already know?” Princess Zi Xuan asked in surprise.

”Haha, your jade flute is a powerful treasure of our Flying Flower Zen Temple. I entrusted it to your second master back then, who then passed it on to you. Naturally, I’m aware!” Sang Qing said with a smile.

”But... the issue with the eldest and second masters...” Princess Zi Xuan paused, struggling to speak.

”I know all about Sang Hua’s situation; it was her destiny and her choice. Fortunately, she realized the truth in the end, and there won’t be any regrets. Release this person now; his injuries must not be delayed!” Sang Qing said as she looked at Princess Zi Xuan.

Princess Zi Xuan nodded and then retrieved the jade flute from behind her. She activated a force that released Ye Tianchen from within, along with Tu Qiuyu!

”Brother Ye, Brother Ye, wake up; what’s wrong?” Tu Qiuyu cried out with tears upon seeing the heavily injured and bloodstained Ye Tianchen.

”Qiuqiu, he’ll be okay; let my Master take a look!” Princess Zi Xuan said, leading Tu Qiuyu to the side.

Tu Qiuyu glanced at Princess Zi Xuan, then at Sang Qing, who sat cross-legged on a cushion, with reddened eyes standing aside. Sang Qing looked at Tu Qiuyu before focusing on Ye Tianchen, who was already unconscious on the ground. With a wave of his right hand, a gentle light enveloped Ye Tianchen. After a moment, Sang Qing frowned and said:

”His injuries are severe. His body is bound by a sinister rune, preventing healing regardless of any treatment. To fundamentally shatter this evil Buddhist rune is likely very challenging!”

”Master, is there no other solution?” Princess Zi Xuan asked anxiously.

”In Buddhist inheritance, most people know the doctrine of compassion and salvation, though few are aware that over the billions of years, some evil inheritances have emerged, resulting in monster monks and demon monks!” Sang Qing said.
