Chapter 2316 - 2316 2306 The Elder Guarding the Door

2316: Chapter 2306: The Elder Guarding the Door 2316: Chapter 2306: The Elder Guarding the Door The main reason for this is that the whereabouts of the Thunder Spirit Bead are known only when the Five Spirit Pearls are gathered together, which can then be combined into the Holy Spirit Pearl 1, an artifact of Ancient Times.

Long Yan, although in possession of the Fire Spirit Pearl, does not know its purpose and can only feel the immense Fire Attribute Spiritual Energy within it.

“I don’t know, but I doubt our Sect Leader would agree to it.”

In fact, the question Long Yan Just now asked would not be agreed upon by most Sects, as each Sect has its own lineage and traditions, and this was a significant issue for Cultivation Sects beyond the rise and fall of Sect power.

“Hmm, then I shall go take a look at the Mingyue Sect for you.”

Long Yan spoke casually, as the previous topic was merely a conversation starter.

His real objective was the Thunder Spirit Bead held by one of their Sect Elders.

Yin Yue seemed very happy, chatting nonstop with Long Yan, and so the much-anticipated peace that Long Yan had finally enjoyed was once again disturbed by Yin Yue.

Of course, having reached Long Yan’s level, even going one month without sleep would not greatly affect his vigor.

Thus, amidst the chattering of the Mingyue Sect disciples early in the morning, everyone embarked on their journey once again.

The Mingyue City got its name from the Mingyue Sect, therefore the Mountains and Ranges where the Mingyue Sect was located were not far from Mingyue City.

One just needed to cross a large lake to reach the foot of Mingyue Mountain.

Long Yan gazed at the opulence of Mingyue Mountain and couldn’t help but exclaim in astonishment.

It was just one of the First-Class Sects of the Qin Dynasty, but already so rich and splendid.

The grandeur of the Mountain Gate was resplendent with gold and jade, and the entire Main hall further up exuded an aura of Immortality.

Although it appeared somewhat austere, it was clearly a cut above the Seven-Star Hall in mere appearance.

Of course, the concentration of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi found here was far beyond what Saint Que could compare to.

If such a place were put in the Star Domain, it would undoubtedly be regarded as a Holy Land of Immortals.

Rousing Long Yan from his reverie, Yin Yue and a lot of Mingyue disciples led the way into the sacred mountain.

Naturally, Yin Yue was the only one who dared to speak with Long Yan, as he looked cold and not easy to talk to.

But Long Yan was also content with the tranquility, following along with Yin Yue and others towards the main hall of the Mingyue Sect.

“Stop, who dares to intrude upon the Mingyue Sacred Place?”

A cold voice echoed through the air.

It wasn’t just Long Yan who tensed up — all the Mingyue Sect disciples nervously wrapped their clothes tighter around themselves as an invisible chill arose in everyone’s heart, the kind of cold that seemed to seep into one’s bones.

“To report to the Third Elder, I am Yin Yue, I have returned.”

Yin Yue bowed respectfully towards the Mountain Gate, showing a gesture of reverence.

This somehow amused Long Yan; disciples of the Sect having to pay respects upon returning to their own Sect indeed indicated very strict customs of the Mingyue Sect.

However, being an outsider, he did not comment.

“Hmm, you may enter.”

That icy voice came through the air, though the person did not show themselves, just listlessly uttered the words.

“Hold on, why is there a man among you?”

Before the group could move, a strong pressure targeted Long Yan and pressed down fiercely, with the cold frost in the air congregating towards Long Yan.

The Trees around them even began to form frost under the influence of this chill.

“Hmph, is this how the Mingyue Sect welcomes its guests?”

With a cold snort from Long Yan, the overwhelmingly domineering True Qi burst forth from his body, and a sharp Sword Qi erupted as if Long Yan himself were an unrivaled Godly sword.

“Eh?”

The voice held a tinge of surprise, and the chilling True Qi in the air became even heavier, frosting the surrounding vegetation with a thick layer of white frost, and even the ground under Long Yan’s feet formed a thin layer of frost.

A nameless anger arose, and the temperature in the vicinity was forcibly brought back to its original state by Long Yan in an instant; the frost on the surrounding vegetation was scattered by the True Qi of Long Yan.

A muffled hum emitted from the voice in the air, indicating that it was at a disadvantage in the clash against Long Yan’s True Qi.

“Third Elder, this person is our savior who saved many lives.

After questioning, we learned he has no name or sect, so we wished to induct him into Mingyue Sect.”

Yin Yue hurriedly held onto Long Yan, but the one behind her was a master who respected no one’s face; naturally, she was still a guest, so Long Yan did not speak.

However, the voice in the air clearly had no intention of letting Long Yan off.

“Humph, what guest?

You nearly destroyed our Mountain Gate, how can you still be considered a guest?”

“Yin Yue, heed my command, seize this person.”

At the same time, an old lady hiding her figure in the air had a glint flash in her eyes.

She had seen Yin Yue stopping the person very clearly just now; perhaps he was another of Yin Yue’s admirers, or possibly even the sweetheart of the current Miss Yin Yue.

Thinking of this, a nameless anger surged in the old lady’s heart.

A shameless wench, not wanting to be with her own nephew, claiming she did not want to be entangled by worldly emotions, all because it was just a trip down the mountain and she took a lover back.

Obviously, Yin Yue was aware of the temper of the Third Elder of her Sect — although her cultivation base was not high, her power within the Sect was overwhelming.

But Long Yan was brought back by her; how could she possibly take him down?

Not to mention herself, even if all the disciples joined forces, they wouldn’t be able to capture Long Yan.

“Why are you not making a move, Yin Yue!

Are you defying orders?”

The Third Elder looked at Yin Yue who was delaying and thought that if the Sect Leader arrived later, things would become troublesome, so she urged Yin Yue to act with some urgency in her tone.

“I want to see the Sect Leader!”

After a brief thought, Yin Yue came up with a solution that would satisfy both parties, but obviously, this idea did not please the Third Elder up in the air very much.

“Humph, do you have no regard for me, your Third Elder?”

The Third Elder snorted coldly, and the cold qi that had been encircling Long Yan before started to surge wildly towards Yin Yue.

In an instant, the air around Yin Yue dropped to its lowest, and in just a while, a layer of white frost appeared on Yin Yue’s face.

“Shameless old hag, when you can’t defeat others, you bully your own people?”

With a wave of Long Yan’s hand, the violent cold qi in the air instantly disappeared, and the warmth returned to her body, which made Yin Yue breathe a sigh of relief; just now she felt as if her body would be frozen by the cold qi.

“Kid, for offending my Sect today, I must report this to the Sect Leader; and Yin Yue, you even dare to betray our Sect, I will report this to the Sect Leader as well.”

Fighting when one cannot win is foolishness; after the single exchange, the Third Elder knew she was absolutely no match for Long Yan, and with the Treasures on her, she thought to flee to the mountain top.

“Come down.”

The Third Elder, who had wanted to flee, felt the Space around her solidify, which brought a fearful expression to her face.

“Kid, you dare make a move against me at the front of my Mountain Gate?

Do you know who I am?”

“I don’t care who you are.”
