Chapter 301: Seduction
The setting sun gradually disappeared.
Fifteen miles southwest of the capital city of Riyan lies a desolate plain, with few trees to provide any shelter.
High above, a massive floating palace, reflecting the last rays of the setting sun, rests serenely.
At the summit of a mountain, Jiang Lingyun stood with her hands behind her back, raised her beautiful face, and gazed at the enormous object floating in mid-air.
She raised an eyebrow, then turned around to look.
Gu Heng appeared behind her without her noticing, as if he had crossed over in an instant.
"Here he comes."
Jiang Lingyun narrowed her eyes. Was this young master Gu using some kind of "shrinking the earth to an inch" technique to travel just now?
This understanding of spatial rules requires an extremely profound level. It's different from teleportation, which allows one to break through the limitations of spatial rules and shrink the space to an inch. This, however, makes spatial rules conform to one's will and shrink...
This level of understanding is extremely profound and unfathomable.
What level of attainment does he actually reach?
Jiang Lingyun was very curious.
Gu Heng silently put the "Swift Boots" into his system backpack, and then stood side by side with Jiang Lingyun.
His gaze was fixed intently on the floating palace in the distance.
"Ha, he's not exactly low-key at all. Why doesn't he just build a palace over the capital of Sunfire?"
Gu Heng said sarcastically in a low voice.
Needless to say, this is Yu Yinzi's palace. "Given his personality, it's not impossible for him to do something like this."
Jiang Lingyun also chimed in at the right moment, expressing her agreement.
Upon hearing this, Gu Heng glanced at her sideways.
"Do you really know him, or are you just responding to me?"
"Well..."
"..."
After an awkward silence, the two continued to look at the floating palace ahead.
“I can draw out the falling string.”
Jiang Lingyun suddenly said calmly.
Her tone remained aloof.
But Gu Heng keenly sensed a hint of murderous intent in her tone.
Clearly, Luo Xian wasn't seen as a friendly figure by her, but that's understandable; it's always good to be wary of strangers.
"Then let's do it this way. I still stand by my opinion: he will betray Yu Yinzi."
Gu Heng smiled.
"Mm." Jiang Lingyun nodded.
She raised her hand, snapped her fingers lightly, and then lowered her hand.
Gu Heng was a little confused. He had only snapped his fingers, yet Luo Xian had been summoned... Well, Luo Xian was a genuine Supreme Saint cultivator, while Gu Heng had only managed to become a mediocre Supreme Saint through temporary experience vouchers.
She said it can be brought out, so it can be.
……
Inside the floating palace.
Luo Xian stood in the empty hall, his face solemn and his eyes icy, but in reality, he was just feeling irritable.
No other reason.
Because of his cultivation level, he was stuck at the tenth level of Mahayana. He couldn't go any higher, and the more he couldn't go higher, the more anxious he became. He shouldn't have been anxious, but as a result, Luo Xian would never see the opportunity for "revenge".
Although he was at the tenth level of Mahayana, if he were to face Yu Quzi, who was at the third level of Sainthood... it would be considered that he was holding back if he could withstand five moves from him.
Luo Xian had also considered assassination, but the only thing in the world capable of assassinating a Saint-level cultivator was the "poison that kills immortals and saints" that had been passed down from the primordial and void eras.
But those poisons...aren't they all extremely precious and rare?
Although Luo Xian is the Grand Elder, he is far from being able to access such a supreme treasure and potent poison.
“Sister E…it seems I will never be able to avenge you in this lifetime.”
As Luo Xian thought this to himself, his sense of frustration intensified.
Qing'e.
His most beloved woman, who was also Yu Quzi's Daoist partner and Yu Yinzi's mother, was tragically unable to win Qing'e's heart, not because he was not good enough, but because he was too obsessed with pursuing the Dao.
This gave Yu Quzi the opportunity to seize the opportunity and quickly fill the void in Qing'e's heart.
Unfortunately.
Marrying Yu Quzi was perhaps the biggest mistake she ever made.
That man, in order to create a descendant with monstrous talent, did not hesitate to use her as a sacrificial womb to give birth to Yu Yinzi, this extremely wicked and wicked bastard!
Both father and son deserve to die! But Luo Xian felt that he might never have that chance in this lifetime.
He couldn't help but close his eyes, trying to calm himself down, but then—
Boom!
He suddenly opened his eyes and looked in a certain direction.
Such powerful swordplay!
Just now, Luo Xian only felt a barely perceptible breeze brush past his ear, but he immediately realized that it was not the wind, but the sword aura of a powerful figure that had broken through the protective array of this palace and was then sensed by him!
Moreover, only he can sense it!
That sword strike was aimed at him!
The other party meant no harm; they just wanted him to feel that there was a powerful figure outside.
Moreover, the opponent must be very powerful! This palace is a sacred-grade magic treasure with extremely high defensive capabilities. Even he would have to exert a lot of effort to break through it with his full strength, but the opponent's sword strike entered without any resistance.
This strength... is absolutely that of a Saint!
Could it be that……
The other party wants to invite him to meet?
Luo Xian's heart clenched suddenly. At this moment, would any powerful person want to see him?
"..."
Without thinking too much, Luo Xian glanced back into the depths of the main hall, where Yu Yinzi was meditating and cultivating.
Without saying a word, he immediately left the floating palace and headed towards the direction from which the sword aura had come. In no time, he found traces of the sword aura atop a mountain.
Luo Xian pondered deeply, then looked into the distance. It seemed the other party intended to lead him further away.
But since they had already decided to meet, Luo Xian had no intention of backing down now.
So he continued on his way until he was ten miles away from the floating palace, and stopped in a forest somewhere.
The traces of the sword's momentum stopped here.
"I wonder what kind of powerful figure you are. Since we are going to meet again, please reveal your true identity!"
Luo Xian said loudly.
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a loud crash, and the surrounding trees, bushes, and flowers were instantly reduced to dust. Then, two figures emerged from the dust.
Luo Xian's pupils suddenly contracted slightly.
He couldn't sense the other person's presence at all just now...
Who exactly is this powerful figure?
"I thought he wouldn't dare to come." Jiang Lingyun walked out indifferently, looked at Gu Heng beside her, and said dejectedly, "Looks like you were right after all."
Gu Heng shrugged: "I'm not wrong, he hates Yu Quzi and Yu Yinzi very much, enough to make him betray them."
After saying that, he looked at Luo Xian, who was standing there with a look of surprise and uncertainty on his face, and smiled.
"Am I right, Elder Luoxian?"
