Chapter 222
Feng Yi said that the matter of the immortal vein was ordered by that Immortal Lord named Zhu Yan. Moreover, this Zhu Yan seemed to have ties to both the Southern and Western Celestial Courts. As for which side he was truly working for, that remained unclear. The incident with the Devouring Beast also bore traces of Zhu Yan’s meddling.
Feng Yi was right. Now that both of these plots had been uncovered, that Zhu Yan would undoubtedly come knocking. But what Yun Jiao didn’t expect was that he would come so soon—and not quietly either. He came openly, boldly, without the slightest hint of guilt for being exposed.
It had been less than a month since the Xuanmen Grand Competition ended when the protective mountain array of the Heavenly Master Hall opened once again. Unlike the time when Feng Yi had appeared—when the sky was filled with dark clouds—this time, the sky above the Hall was dazzlingly bright. It was as if the heavens had opened a gate, and seven-colored light poured down from above, illuminating everything within a hundred miles. Ethereal celestial music drifted from the sky, faint yet echoing everywhere. Waves of divine energy poured down from the heavens, condensing into a sea of auspicious clouds.
Countless celestial beings appeared above, surrounded by radiant light and overflowing immortal aura, so bright that no one could see their true forms.
Every disciple of the Heavenly Master Hall raised their heads, staring in stunned silence. This was the descent of true immortals—beings they had always aspired to become. Under normal circumstances, they would have been thrilled, even awestruck. But after learning who these beings were and what they had done, their excitement turned to cold dread. Complex emotions filled their hearts, and none could tell what they felt anymore.
Yun Jiao had not hidden what Feng Yi’s dragon soul had told her, including the earlier incident with the evil flood dragon. She had reported everything truthfully to the Hall. Naturally, everyone could guess what purpose these so-called immortals from the Upper Realm had in descending now.
The celestial beings in the sky put on full airs of superiority. For a full quarter of an hour, the seven-colored glow blazed like a grand display, and only then did the brilliance fade a little, the divine music tapering off as if ending a performance.
Hall Master Xu frowned. As the master of the Hall, he was the first to step forward. He took one step ahead and was just about to speak—
When a deep, resonant male voice descended from the heavens, heavy with celestial pressure and icy contempt.
