Chapter 26 Taking Over the Qinglan Sect
Chapter 26 Taking Over the Qinglan Sect
"Liu Xinyue... I truly have no obligation to protect her!"
After Li Chang'an finished speaking, he glanced at Liu Xinyue.
The two exchanged a glance. Liu Xinyue, who was at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage, quickly realized what was happening and began to use her spiritual power to leave.
Two Golden Core cultivators immediately made their move to capture Liu Xinyue.
Liu Xinyue glanced at Li Chang'an, her heart sank, and she felt she had been tricked. She couldn't help but curse.
"hypocritical!"
"I only said I'd let you off the hook. As for whether you can avoid marrying Wang Meng, that's up to you."
Li Chang'an smiled calmly as he looked at Liu Xinyue's angry expression and raised both hands.
He quickly approached the two Golden Core cultivators who were about to get close to Liu Xinyue and placed his palm against their chests.
"Sect Leader Li, what are you doing?"
The white-haired old man frowned, his voice filled with dissatisfaction and worry.
"I may not be obligated to protect her, but that doesn't mean you can take her away now."
Li Chang'an's tone was resolute, and at this moment he was also quantifying Liu Xinyue's value in his heart.
"I'm the only one who can harvest my own leeks. If I die like this, who's going to find me a lucky child?"
"Moreover, the system interface did not show any news of Liu Xinyue's demise today. It is unlikely that a woman of destiny who integrates the fortune of a region would die like this."
"Letting her escape under the protection of luck is not as good as letting Liu Xinyue owe me a favor. That seems like a better approach."
Li Chang'an could tell that Liu Xinyue was by no means a heartless person. Given her status as a woman of destiny, her favors were quite valuable.
"and……"
Immediately, he flew into the air and looked down at the entire Qinglan Sect, his gaze moving from near to far.
Li Chang'an first glanced at the Qinglan Sect's outer sect, which had been ravaged in the battle just now. Many of the outer sect disciples' corpses on the ground were still warm from being corroded by the Yin energy.
Some of the stone pillars of the pavilions have also been corroded and discolored. At the far end of the outer gate is a high peak, and passing through the peak leads to the inner gate.
The inner gate buildings were magnificent, and everything looked thriving.
Even though a fierce battle had just taken place in the outer sect, the inner sect disciples looked radiant and showed no signs of impending doom.
Li Chang'an turned his gaze to the two Qinglan Sect elders and pushed them away, then smiled.
"I would appreciate it if you two could return to the Wang family as soon as possible. I am also eagerly awaiting their reply."
"As for Liu Xinyue, as I just said, she cannot be taken away now, at least not today!"
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man angrily retorted.
"What do you mean?!"
Li Chang'an glanced at the man, his tone filled with coldness.
"If I didn't still hold the Wang family in some reverence, you would already be a corpse!"
Upon hearing Li Chang'an's words, the middle-aged cultivator was furious and prepared to desperately hold off Li Chang'an, while also signaling the white-haired elder to take Liu Xinyue away.
However, the white-haired old man took a step forward and reached out to help the middle-aged man.
"Sect Leader Li, I admire your consideration. Since we cannot take Miss Liu away, we will not insist any further."
After speaking, the white-haired old man bowed to Li Chang'an and glanced back at the middle-aged man.
"Walk!"
The middle-aged man looked unwilling, but seeing the meaningful look in the white-haired old man's eyes, he nodded slightly and followed him away from the place.
Not long after leaving the Qinglan Sect, the middle-aged man asked.
"Elder Chen, if I had just detonated my Golden Core, you could have definitely taken Liu Xinyue back to the Wang family. Why did you leave?"
The white-haired old man shook his head and sighed.
"The Eastern Continent is so vast, there is no longer any place for the two of us to hide!"
Not understanding the old man's meaning, the middle-aged man wanted to ask more questions but was interrupted.
"The Qinglan Sect will be devoured by the Cangyun Sect. We two elders, who are clinging to life, failed to bring Liu Xinyue to Wang Meng's side. What do you think the consequences will be?"
Upon hearing Old Chen's words, the middle-aged man frowned. After calming down, he understood everything.
"What do we do now?"
"If Li Chang'an can tolerate Liu Xinyue, a highly talented enemy, then why can't he tolerate the two of us?"
Upon hearing Old Chen's words, the middle-aged man fell into a thoughtful silence.
Qinglan Sect, Outer Sect.
Seeing the two Golden Core elders leave, Liu Xinyue blushed slightly and whispered shyly to Li Chang'an.
Thank you!
Looking at Liu Xinyue's appearance, Li Chang'an, who was in mid-air, couldn't hear what Liu Xinyue was babbling about.
He moved swiftly and grabbed Liu Xinyue below to prevent her from running away, then cleared his throat.
"From this day forward, the name of the Qinglan Sect will be completely erased from the Eastern Continent!"
Li Chang'an's voice echoed throughout the Qinglan Sect, startling some disciples and elders who were in seclusion.
"What! Who dares to utter such arrogant words?"
"Arrogant! It seems you've never witnessed Sect Leader Liu's unparalleled spear skills!"
"Hmph, he only has time to spout nonsense now. Because he's bound to get into trouble sooner or later."
Behind the outer gate peak, the inner sect, isolated from the world, began to discuss amongst themselves, and the commotion gradually reached the outer gate.
Many Foundation Establishment Peak cultivators, and even a few unsuspecting Golden Core early stage cultivators and Golden Core minor completion cultivators who had just emerged from seclusion, all headed to the outer sect.
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Chang'an turned his gaze to Ning Hanruo and then looked at the three characters "Qinglan Sect" on the gate of Qinglan Sect.
Ning Hanruo immediately understood, and with a swift movement of his longsword, the gate was sliced into seven or eight pieces and crashed down.
Watching the falling stones, Ning Hanruo turned her gaze to the golden pillar beside her.
Seeing that the words "Qinglan Sect" were also engraved on the golden pillar, Ning Hanruo stood up again and slashed with her sword, but was blocked by a Golden Core junior elder who appeared at this time.
Looking at the Golden Core cultivator in front of her, Ning Hanruo unleashed a bone-chilling aura, severing the man's head with a single sword strike, even freezing his blood into ice.
With another sword strike, the golden pillar was cleaved in two, and the pillar with the words "Qinglan Sect" engraved on it fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.
Upon seeing Ning Hanruo's terrifying strength, the group who had just arrived from the inner sect felt their hair stand on end and dared not utter a sound.
Li Chang'an glanced at everyone, his tone filled with the imposing aura of someone at the peak of the Golden Core stage.
"Lei Wu and Liu Yishui are dead. From today onwards, this place will be under the jurisdiction of my Cangyun Sect."
"If any disciples or elders are willing to stay, they may join my Cangyun Sect. I, the sect master, will treat them all equally."
After speaking, Li Chang'an turned his gaze to Liu Xinyue, released the hand that was holding him, turned his back, and stood with his hands behind his back.
"Leave! I, the sect leader, will give you a chance for revenge!"
When Li Chang'an spoke this time, his voice echoed throughout the outer gate.
Seeing Li Chang'an's actions, Liu Xinyue cursed inwardly.
"Damn it! You did all this for this?"
But then she saw Li Chang'an glance at her with murderous intent out of the corner of her eye. Liu Xinyue swallowed hard, swallowing the words she wanted to say.
Liu Xinyue dared not linger, fearing that Li Chang'an might suddenly change his mind.
With a swift movement, she transformed into a streak of spiritual energy and sped northward.
Seeing that Liu Xinyue had left alive, the people present began to whisper among themselves.
