Talisman Emperor
Chapter 923 Blocked at the door
Heavenflow Dao Sect, Grand Valiance Hall.
Inside the spacious and empty hall was a carved pillar that was like a 3 km jade pillar that raised the ceiling and many octagonal glass lanterns hanging on the wall and illuminated the entire hall with brightened.
This hall was the place where Bing Shitian and Qing Xiuyi would unite as Dao Companions.
At this moment, many figures were gathered in the hall and seated in their respective places.
They were all mostly from the 10 great immortal sects, the Unknown Land, and the Ascension Holy Land. Although the others were also from large and honorable sects, none of them were ruler-level figures that were famous throughout the world.
For example, Grand Heartcontrol Swordhouse Elder, Jiang Shenghai, Treble Truth Master Embraced Crimsonflame Hall Fu Yunzi, Skyreach Sect Third Elder Hua Wenxuan … All of them were great figures who enjoyed great reputations for a long time in the cultivation world.
Overall, there was absolutely no ordinary person among them who could have a seat in the hall.
At this moment, Bing Shitian and Qing Xiuyi had yet to appear. The ceremony was in its early stages, and they had to wait until the sun rose high in the sky before the curtains for the ceremony would be drawn.
The Sect Master of the Heavenflow Dao Sect, Lu Beiyu, smiled as he looked at this scene while frequently conversing with everyone sitting in the hall, and they emitted a warm wave of laughter, which was very good, it makes it seem a bit crowded.
"Secte Master, I've already conveyed your instructions. Do you have any other instructions? "In the meantime, a disciple arrived at Lu Beiyu's side before speaking through a voice transmission.
"Mmm, you can go." Lu Beiyu waved his hand, and he instantly felt much more relaxed.
He lifted his eyes to sweep the chairs between the chairs in the hall before pulling his gaze, and then he said to himself. That old man Lie Peng was probably still waiting for Chen Xi to come. Unfortunately, it would probably be very difficult for him to see the little man before the ceremony ended …
Lie Peng was drinking wine alone when he suddenly realized something and raised his head to stare at Lu Beiyu, and he could not help but shake his head when he saw Lu Beiyu chatting casually. Lie Peng felt he was too sensitive.
Unfortunately, why has little brother Chen Xi not come yet? Could something unexpected happen? Lie Peng frowned while a wisp of worry emerged from within his heart.
He arrived at the Heavenflow Dao Sect much earlier than Chen Xi, but until now, he had not received any communication from Chen Xi. Now that Bing Shitian and Qing Xiuyi would be united as Dao Companions, how could Lie Peng not be anxious?
"Eh, Daoist Fellow Lie Peng, why has your Chen Xi sect not arrived yet?" Meanwhile, a surprised voice suddenly sounded out from the side, and Lie Peng did not need to raise his head to know that it was Grand Elder Heartcontrol Swordhouses' Jiang Shenghai.
"He will come when he has to come." Lie Peng replied nonchalantly, and then he acted curiously. '' Fellow Daoist Jiang, I never expected that you would be so worried about my Nine Swords Sect disciples so much. Should I thank you on behalf of Chen Xi? "
Lie Peng was naturally aware that Chen Xi had killed countless disciples of the Heartcontrol Swordhouse in Dark Parasol's Abyss, thus as the Grand Elder of the Heartcontrol Swordhouse, Jiang Shenghai, was, it naturally carried ill will in his heart when he spoke out abruptly at this moment.
Jiang Shenghai wore a plain white embroidered robe, had three long beard strands under his chin, and revealed a sage-like appearance. He couldn't help but laugh. “No need to thank. I had just heard that the little guy was betting with Lord Bing Shitian and today was the day the winner was determined, so I couldn't help but be a little curious. Could it be that he knew he was going to lose, so he had no face to come here? "
Lie Peng frowned and said indifferently, "That's between him and Bing Shitian. Seems like it has nothing to do with you, Fellow Daoist Jiang, right? ”
Jiang Shenghai suddenly laughed out loud and said, "Daoist Fellow Lie Peng, you treat me like an outsider with those words. Right now, everyone in Dark Reverie knows about your Nine Chen Radiance Sword Sect. Even I couldn't help but stir up a feeling of appreciation towards peerless genius. "
He paused for a moment and suddenly sighed. “But unfortunately, he just had to offend Lord Bing Shitian and even make this bet under his obsession. To be honest, this little fellow was a little too arrogant, so who could he blame for hurting himself from his own deeds? ”
Lie Peng's face was drowned.
Jiang Shenghai acted as if he had not noticed at all, and he continued. “Unfortunately, there is no such thing as a peerless genius. After Lord Bing Shitian and Qing Xiuyi were united as Dao Companions today, he might have to meet the wagering and suicide requirements. "
Meanwhile, everyone in the hall noticed the unusual atmosphere here, and they had already stopped chatting long ago. So Jiang Shenghai's words practically echoed clearly in everyone's ears.
Instantly, the atmosphere in the entire hall became a little oppressive.
All of these great figures from far and wide had lived for countless years, so how could they not be aware of the enmity between Chen Xi and Bing Shitian?
Precisely because they knew that, they did not want to talk about it. After all, this was the territory of the Heavenflow Dao Sect, and it was the day that Bing Shitian and Qing Xiuyi were united as Dao Companions. If this matter was discussed by them, it would reduce the atmosphere of the event.
Especially since Elder Nine Radiance Sword Sect Lie Peng was present. Although the strength of the Nine Swords Sword Sect was decreasing, it was still one of the 10 great immortal sects in the end, so no one was willing to offend the Nine Swords of Nine because of this.
So this was why their reaction would be so strange when they saw Jiang Shenghai frankly discussing the matter.
Elder Lie Peng's expression was furious as he stared coldly at Jiang Shenghai, and his gaze killed.
Jiang Shenghai chuckled endlessly, and he did not care at all.
Right at this moment, waves of footsteps suddenly sounded from outside the hall, and accompanying these footsteps was the sound of bells that sounded like the sound of nature curving into the sky.
The attention of everyone in the hall was instantly attracted.
They saw True Jade who was wearing beautiful palace clothes walking in front with dignified and wavy hair rolled into a bun, while Bing Shitian and Qing Xiuyi followed behind her.
Bing Shitian seemed to be very solemn today. He wore a furry crown of star crests, a robe with a dark violet cloud pattern, a belt gilded with gold and ornamented with jade, and soft shoes made of pine wood. He had starry eyes, red lips, and white teeth, and every movement he made showed a dignified and steady attitude.
Her jet-black and beautiful hair rolled over her head, revealing an incomparably beautiful white face. Her neck was long and slender, her lips were red like rose petals, and her waist was graceful and delicate. She was wearing a fiery red and beautiful dress with twisting tassels, and a phoenix-shaped pin was placed in her hair, causing her to exude a beautiful and extremely shocking beauty.
He's too perfect! She was like another world heavenly maiden who had descended into the mortal world. Even though everyone present were great figures in the cultivation world, they could not hold their breath as soon as they saw this scene.
Bing Shitian and Qing Xiuyi walked forward side by side, and they were just like a pair made in heaven, causing the entire hall to appear to be thrown into shadow.
Amidst everyone present, only Lie Peng did not have the mood to appreciate this scene, and the anxiety in his heart increased. The ceremony will begin soon. Where is Chen Xi? Where exactly is he now?
…
At the foot of the mountain where the Heavenflow Dao Sect lived.
A group of cultivators were blocked outside the entrance.
“Daoist colleagues, I'm sorry but the ceremony has started now. So please leave. For the sake of security, my Heavenflow Dao Sect will be in a state of full alert from now onward, and no one will be able to set foot in this sect. "A disciple from the Heavenflow Dao Sect stood in front of the entrance and spoke proudly.
The group of cultivators actually came to watch the ceremony as well, but they muttered to themselves before leaving in succession as they had no invitation.
But they did not leave and stood outside the entrance. They seemed intent on waiting here so that they could figure out everything that was happening within the Grand Valance Hall at the first possible moment.
The disciples standing guard outside the entrance could not do anything about this, and they could only close their eyes to it.
"Go report to Bing Shitian that I, Chen Xi, have come to fulfill my bet." Right at this moment, Chen Xi's tall figure suddenly arrived before the entrance, and he spoke calmly while staring at the disciples.
Previously, he had already noticed that the entire Heavenflow Dao Sect was maintained by layer after layer of restrictions, and if he intended to enter the sect, they were the only way they would probably enter by force. But he had come for the sake of fulfilling the bet and bringing Qing Xiuyi with him, so there was no need to enter without permission by force.
"What's? You are Chen Xi? "The disciple was stunned, and he looked at Chen Xi as he sized up Chen Xi before he nodded. “Alright, wait a minute. I'll report it. "As soon as he finished speaking, he had already passed through the entrance.
"Khen Xi!"
"He's Chen Xi! My god! He really is coming! "
"Ha huh! There's a show to see now. "
When the cultivators waiting nearby saw this scene, all of their spirits were refreshed, and the gazes they shot at Chen Xi were filled with curiosity, respect, and fear, and they did not even dare to speak out loud.
Just like the entire Dark Reverie, they were well aware that Chen Xi had overcome tribulation every five years, and he was probably an Eternal Earth Realm expert who was a Peak Sovereign, so they had no choice but to adore him.
Chen Xi was indifferent to all of this, and she waited quietly with a calm and calm expression.
It's thundering!
After a while, he suddenly frowned and flicked his sleeves, causing the restrictions that enveloped the surroundings of the entrance to become easily torn apart like paper.
"Dirt! That guy barged in! "
"Quickly, quickly report to the elders!"
The group of disciples behind the entrance were extremely shocked, and they screamed loudly.
Chen Xi reached out her hand and grabbed, and she pulled one of them towards her before she asked calmly. "Didn't you go to report the news of my arrival? Why are you hiding behind the entrance restrictions? ”
This person was precisely the disciple who had spoken to Chen Xi before. At this moment, his throat was held by Chen Xi, and it frightened him to the point that his face was pale and rendered him speechless.
"I understand now. Your Heavenflow Dao Sect did not welcome my arrival, right? "Chen Xi frowned and continued. "Because it's like this, then don't blame me for trespassing."
His voice was calm and indifferent, and it did not carry any emotions.
At the next moment, Chen Xi had already walked towards the Heavenflow Dao Sect.
"really presumptuous! This is the Heavenflow Dao Sect, and this is not a place you can run wild! "
“Quick stop him! The Elders have instructed that we must not let him enter the sect! "
"Kill!"
When Chen Xi had just stepped through the entrance and towards the Heavenflow Dao Sect, he saw a group of cultivators suddenly surging from all directions like waves, and they shouted as they charged towards him.
It's really like that. It seems like not only did they welcome me, they seemed to be afraid that I would ruin the ceremony, and his clear and calm eyes suddenly flashed with a wisp of piercing cold killing intent.
