Chapter 281 The Hehuan Sect Master Who Snatches People Everywhere in the Cultivation World (23)
Tianwu Peak of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect is the territory of Sword Master Changheng. It is covered with barrier formations from top to bottom. Apart from Sword Master Changheng and her two disciples, no one can usually get to Tianwu Peak.
Now, Tianwu Peak has gained an outsider named Leyan.
What was once a barren landscape has been transformed by the spur of the Sword Master Changheng, with vegetation growing, flowers blooming, and lush greenery.
"I remember the scenery outside your Floating Life Palace. Look, is it the same?"
Sword Master Changheng held onto Le Yan's hand. Although his expression was indifferent, his clear eyes were filled with anticipation.
Le Yan raised her eyes and glanced at Tianwu Peak, which was famous in the cultivation world. As her gaze fell upon it, it felt as if she were still in the Hehuan Sect.
The familiar setting, the familiar bamboo forest—if her Floating Life Palace weren't unique, Sword Master Changheng would probably have copied it over.
"Changheng—"
"Call me Aheng, Heng as in Hengyu, that's my name."
Just as Le Yan opened her mouth to call Chang Heng Sword Master, she interrupted her, staring intently at her, as if Le Yan would be guilty of a heinous crime if she didn't call him "Aheng".
Le Yan remained silent for a moment, choosing not to engage in an arm-wrestling match with this powerful woman.
She calmly nodded: "Then I'll call you Aheng from now on."
Sword Master Changheng was delighted and immediately seized the opportunity, "Then can I call you by your name too?"
"Xiao Yan?"
Le Yan: "Whatever you say."
A name is just something people call you by, so it doesn't matter how you call them.
Le Yan picked up her question again. She glanced down at the hand that Sword Master Changheng was holding, then looked away and asked, "Aheng, when are you going to send me back to Huan Sect?"
"If I, the dignified sect leader of the Hehuan Sect, were to be kidnapped by you like this, it would easily cause unrest within the sect."
That's why they say that those who kidnap people will be kidnapped in return. In the past, the Hehuan Sect kidnapped people every day, but now, as the sect leader of the Hehuan Sect, she has been kidnapped herself.
The key issue is that we really can't beat them!
This can be very discouraging.
Le Yan sighed inwardly, then heard Sword Master Changheng say calmly, "I will not send you back."
A stubborn glint flashed in her eyes, "Unless you agree to form a pact with me."
Le Yan: "Threatening me?"
She frowned, pulled her hand away from Changheng Sword Master's grasp, crossed her arms, and looked at him defensively.
"I'm the kind of person who responds better to gentle persuasion than force. The more you push me, the less likely I am to agree."
Le Yan sneered: "Don't think you can force me just because you're stronger than me. If you push me too far, I'll just kill myself."
Upon hearing her words, Sword Master Changheng was instantly stunned. He lowered his head, somewhat at a loss, and murmured, "I... I'm not forcing you... I just don't want you to leave my side..."
But she didn't want to let Leyan go either.
With both of her disciples in the Hehuan Sect, only she and Leyan remained on Tianwu Peak. No one disturbed them, and nothing could attract Leyan's attention. This place belonged only to the two of them.
Isn't this good?
Why must you leave?
Sword Master Changheng felt a pang of sadness, unsure of what to do.
Le Yan glanced at her sideways, her eyes darting around as she came up with a new idea.
"Ahem," she coughed lightly, raised her hand to place on Sword Master Changheng's shoulder, and softened her voice, "How about this, you come back to Huan Sect with me, that way you'll still be by my side, right?"
Le Yan looked at Sword Master Changheng with a beaming smile, a thought suddenly occurring to her, and she whispered in a slightly high-pitched voice, "Aheng~"
The already soft voice sounded even sweeter now, causing Sword Master Changheng to unconsciously rub his fingers together.
Her ears turned red, and she quickly lowered her eyes to suppress the overwhelming emotions within them.
With a slight pursing of his lips, Sword Master Changheng pondered for a moment and then chose to compromise, "Alright, I'll go back to Huan Sect with you."
Since Xiao Yan wanted to go back, she would let her leave so as not to upset her.
In any case, I will definitely stick close to her side.
Having made up his mind, Sword Master Changheng led Leyan away from Tianwu Peak while secretly thinking that since she and Xiaoyan were going to return to Hehuan Sect, some people in Hehuan Sect should no longer stay there.
With a flash of insight, she made a decision.
Le Yan knew nothing about this. As soon as she landed at the Hehuan Sect, she left Sword Master Changheng at the Fusheng Hall and went out on her own.
He claimed, "I need to have a meeting with our sect elders. You are a member of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect and cannot participate."
He left Changheng Sword Master behind and hurriedly ran to find Azhao.
Sword Master Changheng could tell that Leyan was fooling her, but she didn't care.
As long as Leyan doesn't want to get rid of her or stop her from staying by her side, everything is fine.
As for Leyan going to a "meeting"?
This also gave her time to get rid of all the people who were an eyesore.
Sword Master Changheng had no intention of staying obediently in the Floating Life Palace. She released her powerful divine sense, covering the entire Hehuan Sect, and took control of the whereabouts of those who were in the way. Then she began to send them away one by one.
The first to be sent away by her were naturally her two own disciples.
Before having a Daoist partner, a disciple is a treasure; after having a Daoist partner, a disciple becomes like a wild animal.
Sword Master Changheng decisively issued summons to his two disciples, forcibly summoning them back to Tianwu Peak, saying that he had something very important to discuss with them.
When the brothers Qi Lan and Qi Qing received the summons, they were just about to go to Fusheng Palace to find Le Yan, but they immediately hesitated on the spot.
"Master has never summoned us so urgently before. Could it be that something terrible has really happened?"
Qi Lan hesitated, while Qi Qing tilted her head slightly and glanced in the direction of the Floating Life Palace, feeling a little disappointed. "No matter how important it is, since Master has summoned us, we have no choice but to go back."
It's a pity they haven't spent much time with Immortal Venerable Xuanyu.
Qi Lan sighed, "Let's go and say goodbye to the Immortal Venerable. We'll visit again another day."
After dealing with their master's affairs, they will have another chance to be by Xuan Yu Immortal Venerable's side.
The two brothers reached a consensus and soon arrived at the Floating Life Palace, only to find that a barrier was set up outside the Floating Life Palace, enveloping the entire palace.
The two exchanged a glance, somewhat puzzled.
Qi Lan: "Could it be that the Immortal Venerable is currently cultivating?"
Qi Qing: "Perhaps."
If Immortal Venerable Xuanyu was indeed cultivating, then their wish to see her before leaving would be in vain.
Qi Lan could not hide her disappointment, but she could only resign herself to leaving a farewell message, which would be delivered to Xuan Yu Immortal Venerable the moment the barrier opened.
The two brothers quickly left the Hehuan Sect, unaware that the message they left behind did not reach the ears of the Xuanyu Immortal Venerable they longed for, but was directly destroyed by their beloved master.
Sword Master Changheng watched his departing disciples with a blank expression.
She didn't look for long before quickly resuming her actions.
Sheng An, whose eyesight was poor, was targeted by her. Her light gaze fell on the white veil covering the eyes of the person opposite her, and the Sword Master Changheng made his move with swift and decisive action.
A burst of spiritual power bound Sheng An's entire body. His eyes were about to unleash powerful energy to resist the attack, but because he had not yet fully mastered them, he was completely unable to resist the spiritual power of Sword Master Changheng and could only surrender.
Sheng An demanded sharply, "Who are you?! Why did you hurt me?!"
Sword Master Changheng remained silent, simply casting a silencing spell on him. Then, with a flick of his hand, a teleportation array instantly appeared, accurately sending Sheng An back to the Heavenly Dao Alliance.
Upon landing at the Heavenly Dao Alliance and feeling the familiar surroundings, Sheng An felt a surge of rage, "Bastard!"
Who brought him back?!
He was determined to make the other person wish they were dead!
