Chapter 214 : Daoxuan's Request
Chapter 214: Daoxuan's Request
As Daoxuan continued his explanation, Lu Xueqi gradually came to understand what had happened below the mountain.
More than ten days ago, five highly powerful cultivators had suddenly appeared on the Divine Continent.
When these cultivators first appeared, they did not immediately begin slaughtering the inhabitants of cities. Instead, they traveled everywhere gathering information about this world.
However, after seemingly confirming that there were no powerful experts in this world, the five immediately became unrestrained and began massacring entire cities and villages.
In just a short period of time, they slaughtered the inhabitants of numerous cities, causing countless bloody massacres.
After receiving the news, the various sects of the Righteous Path across the world all dispatched disciples to investigate.
However, the majority of those disciples never returned. Some of the smaller sects below the mountain were even retaliated against by the Blood Demons and wiped out entirely, throwing the entire Righteous Path into panic.
After learning of the situation, the Qingyun Sect also sent many disciples to investigate, but they likewise all perished.
Even Burning Incense Valley and Tianyin Temple, which stood alongside the Qingyun Sect, had numerous disciples who disappeared without a trace after setting out.
After losing many disciples, Daoxuan realized the seriousness of the situation and, some time ago, dispatched Elder Shuiyun of the Qingyun Sect to lead more than a dozen disciples to investigate.
Yet this elder, who had reached the Second Level of the Upper Purity Realm and was considered one of the stronger elders within the Qingyun Sect, was completely powerless after arriving there and was killed like a lamb awaiting slaughter.
The Qingyun Sect realized that sending any other elders or Peak Chiefs would most likely only result in more needless deaths.
At present, the only people the Qingyun Sect could dispatch were Daoxuan, Wan Jianyi, and Lu Xueqi.
However, even with the strength of Daoxuan and Wan Jianyi, they had little confidence in succeeding. Therefore, the only person who truly had a chance of resolving the matter was Lu Xueqi.
The reason Daoxuan had invited Master Shuiyue here this time was precisely because he had hoped she would return and awaken Lu Xueqi from her closed-door cultivation so that she could go down the mountain to deal with the Blood Demons.
Unexpectedly, Lu Xueqi had emerged from seclusion of her own accord, which was truly excellent news.
After finishing his explanation, Lu Xueqi pondered briefly before asking, “Martial Uncle Daoxuan, may I ask what your plan is now?”
Daoxuan replied directly, “Martial Niece Lu, you already know the situation. Under the current circumstances, only you can deal with those Blood Demons below the mountain.
Therefore, I hope you will personally take action and eliminate them. Otherwise, the living beings below the mountain will likely suffer a great calamity.
These Blood Demons are cruel beyond measure, even more bloodthirsty than the members of the Demonic Sect. This matter must be resolved as soon as possible.”
After hearing this, Lu Xueqi thought for a moment before nodding.
“Yes, Martial Uncle. Since that is the case, I shall set out immediately and eliminate those Blood Demons.”
Daoxuan quickly said, “Martial Niece Lu, there's no need to rush. You're unfamiliar with the situation below the mountain, so I'll assign someone to act as your guide.”
Lu Xueqi was slightly startled. Just as she was about to decline, Daoxuan had already called toward the outside.
“Yicai, come in.”
A moment later, Xiao Yicai quickly entered the Jade Purity Hall. Upon seeing Daoxuan and the Peak Chiefs, he respectfully saluted.
“Greetings, Master and all Martial Uncles.”
Daoxuan looked at Xiao Yicai with satisfaction and nodded.
“Yicai, there's no need for formalities. I called you here this time because I want you to serve as a guide for your Junior Sister Lu while she goes to eliminate the Blood Demons below Qingyun Mountain. Are you willing?”
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yicai's face immediately filled with joy, and he hurriedly nodded.
“Master, I am willing!”
He then raised his head and glanced at Lu Xueqi.
Previously, he had not participated in the Seven Peaks Tournament and therefore knew very little about Lu Xueqi, only that Xiaozhu Peak had such a junior sister.
However, at Flowing Wave Mountain, he had been captivated by both Lu Xueqi's strength and her peerless beauty, and the thought of pursuing her had taken root in his heart.
Fortunately, what he saw now was Lu Xueqi's altered appearance. Had he seen her true face, his thoughts would likely have become even more intense.
Seeing that Daoxuan had already made his decision, Lu Xueqi said no more.
“In that case, I'll have to trouble you from now on, Senior Brother Xiao.”
Xiao Yicai immediately shook his head.
“Junior Sister Lu, you're too polite. This is all for the sake of the Righteous Path. Junior Sister Lu, shall we set out now?”
Lu Xueqi nodded.
“Very well, Senior Brother Xiao.”
She then rose and bowed to Master Shuiyue.
“Master, I'll be going now.”
Master Shuiyue nodded.
“Xueqi, go.”
She then added with some concern, “Xueqi, after going down the mountain, you must be careful.”
Lu Xueqi replied, “Don't worry, Master. Given my current strength, it won't be easy for anyone to injure me.”
Although Master Shuiyue acknowledged Lu Xueqi's strength, she still could not completely set her mind at ease.
“You still need to be careful.”

“Yes, Master,” Lu Xueqi answered.
She then turned and walked out of the Jade Purity Hall.
Now that she possessed the Immortal Armor, beings below the Immortal Grade could hardly injure her. Combined with the supreme restraining treasure, the Immortal Binding Rope, and her own terrifying strength, it was simply impossible for others to kill her.
Moreover, even if she encountered a Supreme Powerhouse whom she could not defeat, she could simply use the Chat Group to leave directly, so there was no danger to her life.
After Lu Xueqi and Xiao Yicai walked out of the Jade Purity Hall and arrived at the plaza,
Lu Xueqi glanced at the sky outside before asking Xiao Yicai, “Senior Brother Xiao, do you know where the Blood Demon closest to the Qingyun Sect is at the moment?”
After hearing her question, Xiao Yicai pondered for a moment before replying,
“Junior Sister Lu, as far as I know, the Blood Demon closest to the Qingyun Sect is currently advancing toward Heyang City. (For an exhilarating reading experience, visit!)
0...0
And the direction it is heading will most likely bring it to our Qingyun Sect.
It seems that because our Qingyun Sect previously sent an elder to eliminate that Blood Demon, it was thoroughly enraged, and now it intends to retaliate against the Qingyun Sect.”
After hearing this, Lu Xueqi nodded.
“Very well. In that case, Senior Brother Xiao, let us head to Heyang City now.”
Xiao Yicai did not object and nodded.
“Alright, Junior Sister Lu. Let's make our way to Heyang City now.”
He immediately moved, preparing to fly toward Heyang City.
However, Lu Xueqi stopped him.
“Senior Brother Xiao, wait a moment.”
Hearing her words, Xiao Yicai looked at her in confusion, not understanding what she meant.
Seeing this, Lu Xueqi directly explained,
“There's no need to go through so much trouble, Senior Brother Xiao.”
She then waved her right hand before her.
Instantly, a vast, dark passage appeared.
Seeing this, Xiao Yicai's eyes widened in shock, and he exclaimed,
“Junior Sister Lu, what is this?”
Looking at the deep passage, Lu Xueqi explained,
“Senior Brother Xiao, this is a Spacetime Passage. This kind of Spacetime Passage allows spatial transportation. We'll go directly to Heyang City through it.”
After speaking, without waiting for Xiao Yicai to respond, Lu Xueqi stepped into the Spacetime Passage.
Only then did Xiao Yicai come back to his senses. As he recalled Lu Xueqi's words, his eyes sparkled with astonishment.
