Chapter 43: Purple Mansion, Assassination

Chapter 43 Return to Zifu, Assassination
Suddenly, the old Taoist paused, and a chill came over him: "Girl, good source technique!"

Before he finished speaking, a loud bang was heard, like thunder. At the end of the horizon, smoke and dust billowed up into the sky, accompanied by a strong energy fluctuation.

Purple Mountain! The epicenter was the Purple Mountain guarded by nine dragon veins. Even though they were far away, everyone could clearly feel the ground there shaking violently.

The Taoist priest turned around quickly and looked at the end of the horizon. His eyes were like two golden beads, shining brightly. At this moment, his skinny body exuded a terrifying aura, as if he was no longer a human being, but a wild dragon that had not appeared in ten thousand years. The people around him were almost paralyzed to the ground in fear.

"brush"

The old Taoist rushed straight into the sky, and with a wave of his Taoist robe, he almost swept the entire stone village into the air. He casually pointed his hand, and the village regained stability. This was hard for Yao Xi, whose cultivation was sealed. She was thrown up just now. Fortunately, Zixia hugged her in time, so she didn't make a fool of herself.

Several people were so frightened that their scalps went numb. This old Taoist's strength was so terrifying that he just subconsciously waved his sleeves and it had such power.

The old Taoist turned into a gray mist and rushed towards Zishan like a real dragon, causing the sky to tremble. "Do you want to go over and take a look?" Ye Fan asked.

"This person is too scary. Our cultivation is too low, so we'd better not go!" Ji Ziyue was a little worried.

"Let's go and take a look. I can sense that this Taoist has no ill will towards us, and he is very obsessed with source arts. You can give it a try."

"Then what about her?" Ye Fan pointed at Yao Xi.

Yao Xi's eyes sparkled with amusement, and she said coquettishly, "You don't want to throw me into that furnace again, do you?"

"Then do as you say! Zixia, help me!" Ye Fan grinned.

"You..." Yao Xi was so angry that she was speechless. Only then did she realize that the furnace also belonged to the Purple Mansion Saint. At this moment, her cultivation was sealed and she had no power to resist. She could only let others control her.

······
Before the three men and the dog got close, they heard the old Taoist conversing with a spiritual consciousness.

"Little brother, it's you!" Ye Fan recognized at a glance that the cultivator captured by the old Taoist was Kong Teng. Could that spiritual consciousness be from the Peacock King?

"You are...Brother Chilong." Zixia concluded that this was the voice of the Peacock King.

"Brother Chilong, where have you been? Why did you suddenly disappear one thousand five hundred years ago? I thought you were dead." asked the Peacock King.

"It's a long story. I was trapped on the Holy Cliff and nearly lost my life. I was trapped there for one thousand five hundred years." The old Taoist sighed.

"Holy Cliff", the three people and one dog who were watching the fun heard this familiar word again.

“I didn’t find the blood of the ancient holy body, but I accidentally ran into a formation carved by a great emperor and was almost refined alive.”

“Hahaha… I think Big Brother Chilong’s skills are now even stronger than before. He must have good fortune in the future after surviving a great disaster.” The Peacock King laughed.

"After fifteen hundred years of sitting in meditation, I finally had some enlightenment. I am better than before." The old Taoist smiled and nodded.

"What the big black dog said is actually true!" Ji Ziyue's face was full of disbelief.

"Humph!" The black dog raised his head, stretched out his neck, and said with disdain, "There is nothing in this world that I don't know!"

The Peacock King's mind transformed into a handsome young man of about sixteen or seventeen years old, and said, "I asked the demon cultivators to come here to lure the Holy Lord Yaoguang in this area to come over and kill him halfway. Brother, you are here too, so he is dead! I believe he has already received the news, so we'd better leave immediately."

"Are we leaving right away?" The old Taoist wanted to go back to the stone fort because the stones there frightened him and he thought there might be something he needed.

"Yes, leaving right away."

"Okay, I'll go with you." After the old Taoist Chilong said this, he glanced around and gently shook his sleeves. Dozens of people, including Ye Fan, appeared.

Most of these people were local minor monks who came to check after hearing the noise, and they were all trembling with fear. After all, there were only a few people in the world who dared to kill the Holy Lord.

"You'd better leave as soon as possible. This is not a place where you can get involved." The old Taoist Chilong glanced at everyone indifferently.

"It turns out that the person who can fight against the Holy Lord is so terrifying, it's chilling..." Ye Fan said to himself.

"Don't worry, we will be stronger in the future!" Zixia patted Ye Fan on the back to encourage him.

"Hurry and leave. Such a ruthless person makes me feel great danger." The big black dog turned into a black light and disappeared on the horizon.

·······
Half a month later, in Quzhou, Ye Fan found Tu Fei and asked him to help settle these people. When Ye Fan moved, he put the entire stone village into the jade bottle, all the stones were collected, and even the foundation was pulled out.

As soon as they met, Tu Fei saw Ye Fan standing side by side with three women, and said in surprise: "You, you, you conquered them all?" "My wish in this life is to steal a saint as my wife, and you actually found three! Tell me how you did it!" Tu Fei started to talk without restraint again.

Ye Fan hurriedly covered his mouth, fearing that he would anger Zixia, and whispered in his ear: "I'll teach you this later, you help me settle these people first!"

Finally, Tu Fei brought him to a place called Haozhou. This oasis was thousands of miles in radius and vast in territory. It was his grandfather's territory.

It is not a problem to resettle dozens of families. Just find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers. The environment is much better than the original stone fortress.

"I say, why are you moving stones when you move house?" Tu Fei was stunned.

I saw a pile of stones piled up like a mountain. They looked ordinary and there was nothing special about them.

The people of Shizhai were very satisfied with this beautiful place with mountains and rivers. Since they had purchased a large amount of supplies in advance, they did not lack anything and only needed to build houses.

The villagers are full of energy and are building new houses enthusiastically.

Seeing the villagers like this, Ye Fan felt relieved and said to Zixia: "I have saved up ten thousand jin of source, enough to enter the third heaven of the Dao Palace. I plan to go into seclusion for a while, and I would like to trouble you to help look after Ji Ziyue and Yao Xi."

"Since you want to go into seclusion, I will go back to the Zifu Holy Land. They must be very angry that I left without saying goodbye. I will take them with me so that they will have company on the road. If you want to find me, come to the Holy City Gambling Stone Shop in a month or two." Zixia also made a decision.

On the way back to the Zifu Holy Land, Zixia took Yao Xi flying, but Ji Ziyue had already been released by Zixia. She was a little afraid of Zixia and didn't want to go with her.

"Sister, Ji Ziyue has been released, why don't you release me!" Yao Xi's eyes moved and she smiled brightly.

Zixia thought for a moment and said, "I said I'm saving you, do you believe me?"

"Haha! Stop joking, sister. The biggest loss I've suffered since my debut was when you hit me with that broken gourd." A heavenly chuckle came from her voice, but her emotions could not be heard.

"It was the first time I did that kind of thing, and I didn't know how to control myself!" Zixia explained.

"I said that the Yaoguang Holy Land has been occupied by someone else! It's rotten to the core! It's no longer the place where you grew up." Zixia revealed a shocking secret.

But after hearing this, Yao Xi did not refute, but remained silent.

"You knew already?"

"Is it the power behind the Holy Son of Yaoguang?"

Zixia did not answer Yao Xi's question, but instead extended her hand to her: "Join us!"

"Joining the team of shameless thieves and vile women? You think so highly of this useless body?"

"You're just missing a bra. I'll give it back to you." Zixia covered her mouth and chuckled.

"Why is it here with you!" She chuckled and took the bra. She didn't look angry, but a charming smile appeared on her face: "Could it be that you have already given yourself to him?"

"Boom!"

A cold light suddenly appeared, and the murderous aura was chilling!
Zixia instantly swung out a palm, sending Yao Xi far away, and at the same time unlocking the ban on her cultivation.

A shadow suddenly appeared, and an iron sword flew across the sky, piercing Zixia's chest. It was as fast as lightning and was impossible to defend against.

"when!"

At the critical moment of life and death, Zixia used the will of heaven to block the sword. However, a tear was still made on her chest, and a trace of blood appeared on the snow-white.

"Zheng!"

The sword light was cold, illuminating the earth, and three figures came floating in like fairies from the sky, with white clothes fluttering and fierce momentum!

It was too fast. The three white-clothed assassins combined their swords into one, forming a Three Talents Formation, blocking the space, and their swords went straight for Zixia's vital points.

There was no way to avoid it, everything happened so abruptly and quickly, as if it suddenly appeared out of thin air.

"Hmm? Assassin? Who wants to kill me?"
