Chapter 786: Chapter 786: Things like the Xuanyun Sect, We Don’t Care For!

Xuan Tong’s words naturally caught the attention of Xuan Du and Xuan Jie.

They looked towards the pit, their faces turning extremely unsightly in an instant.

The Mystic Cloud Chains were a unique secret technique of the Xuanyun Sect; they used chains to trap their prey, rendering the captive unable to channel their Spiritual Power, and thus unable to cast any spells.

Besides, their greatest advantage was that if someone attempted to destroy the Mystic Cloud Chains by external force, each link of the chain would instantly transform into a Shadowless Sword, directly slaughtering the captive!

With Spiritual Power unusable within and external powers unable to break through from without,

the Mystic Cloud Chains were almost an unsolvable predicament!

Seeing this, Li Qingyao’s face also turned cold, showing no fear in the face of the three Nascent Soul Stage elders.

"The three seniors must have seen, this is indeed the doing of someone from your Xuanyun Sect!"

Her cool words offered no face-saving grace, and Xuan Tong said with an awkward laugh, "Fairy, please do not misunderstand, this must be the mischief of some short-sighted junior."

"To you, they indeed are juniors," said Li Qingyao, raising her eyebrows, "but my man has been trapped here for years!"

Xuan Tong replied with a bitter smile, "We who are at the Nascent Soul Stage are often in closed-door cultivation, comprehending the Dao, and do not manage the sect’s affairs! Rest assured, I’ll release him now. It’s fortunate that he is still alive, otherwise..."

He could tell that the several people here were all related to Lu Chen.

Better to release him before Lu Chen came to question them; by then, it would be too late.

"Alive?"

Li Qingyao stepped forward, positioning herself in front of the pit as if to block Xuan Tong from casting a spell, "Alive, yes, but it has been a living death!"

"What do you mean by that?"

Xuan Tong was taken aback; he felt the resentment in Li Qingyao’s words.

And Qin Yaotiao also hesitated for a moment before swiftly gliding to stand alongside Li Qingyao.

Looking carefully, she even seemed to be half a step ahead of Li Qingyao.

Li Qingyao’s heart warmed. She was naturally detached, apart from towards Lu Tianren and Lu Chen, no one could enter her eyes!

Even her gradual change of heart towards Qin Yaotiao had been solely because of Lu Chen!

"Two fairies, this was not our doing. We will personally resolve the mistake of this junior, so there’s no need for hostility," Xuan Tong said, seeing their reluctance to have him release the Mystic Cloud Chains. His tone softened further, and afterward, he glanced over at Lu Chen.

Lu Chen had just slain another demon beast.

Now, there were more cultivators floating in the air than there were beasts.

"We’re not stopping you," Li Yanran shook her head and said, "The seniors are all at the Nascent Soul Stage. Why don’t you have a look and see what other torments my man has suffered in addition to captivity!"

The three Nascent Soul stage cultivators paused, and seeing that Li Yanran had stepped aside, they released their Spiritual Sense.

Their Spiritual Sense filled the pit completely in an instant.

Immediately after, their expressions changed dramatically.

On the walls of the hole, there were numerous small openings, clearly indicating that some creatures were living within!

"What is inside that...?"

Xuan Tong’s face turned particularly ugly.

"Bloodthirsty demons!"

Li Qingyao uttered these four words and could no longer hold back her tears. Although she had not endured such pain, she had always watched as Lu Tianren suffered it.

"Bloodthirsty demons?"

The expressions of the three changed as well.

If it were just bloodthirsty demons, it wouldn’t matter much. Not only could they easily crush a bunch, but so could an ordinary cultivator at the Foundation Establishment Stage.

But for someone to have survived for years trapped by the Mystic Cloud Chains, it was unimaginable what kind of torment he had endured!

"I’m sorry."

Xuan Tong was silent before saying, "Whatever compensation you seek, our Xuanyun Sect will try its best to satisfy you."

Li Qingyao wiped away her tears, her voice becoming resolute.

"Whatever the Xuanyun Sect offers, we as a couple are not interested!"

The three were taken aback but then heard Li Qingyao point to Lu Chen in the sky and say, "However, whatever my son wants, that is what your Xuanyun Sect must try its best to satisfy!"
