Chapter 221 Invite Ancestor Youyou To Come Out
Chapter 221: Please Summon Senior Youyou
The problem before Long Yan was not only the issue of the alliance war and Zhang Chi's personal safety, but also her attitude towards public and private matters.
Of course, she didn't know that the person who launched the signal flare was Zhang Chi, she only knew it was the signal of the Sword Sect.
But if the Sword Sect was in danger, it meant that Zhang Chi might also be in danger.
She glanced at the chaotic battlefield and then looked south.
The signal flare was launched in that direction, and Zhang Chi was over there.
Long Yan didn't hesitate for long and prepared to fly towards the south.
The chaos here wouldn't make much of a difference with or without her.
But the situation with Zhang Chi was unclear, and if she went over, she might be able to change the outcome.
"Is the Palace Master planning to flee before the battle?"
Just as Long Yan was about to go to Zhang Chi's aid, Yin Xun jumped out.
Seeing Yin Xun, Long Yan's expression turned sour.
"Where I go is none of your business, get lost!"
Long Yan was polite to others, but she didn't want to give Yin Xun even a hint of a good expression.
Yin Xun's face darkened, and he sneered, "Palace Master, I hope you remember that you are the Palace Master of the Dragon Transformation Palace, and your every word and action represents the Dragon Transformation Palace.
If you leave from here now, do you want others to laugh at our Dragon Transformation Palace in the future, calling us cowards and deserters?"
Yin Xun was very good at finding people's weaknesses. He knew that Long Yan valued the Dragon Transformation Palace and the responsibility she had on her shoulders. By taunting Long Yan like this, he believed that Long Yan would reconsider her decision.
Hehe, when Long Yan looks back in the future and realizes that she had the chance to save Zhang Chi but let him die because of her sense of responsibility and her value for the Dragon Transformation Palace, I wonder how she will feel?
"I'll say it again, get lost!"
Long Yan didn't hesitate. She wasn't someone who couldn't distinguish right from wrong. The difference with or without her here wasn't significant, but Zhang Chi needed her.
She had a sense of responsibility, but she wasn't so stubborn that she couldn't adapt.
Yin Xun's face immediately became even uglier.
This woman was truly despicable with her double standards.
When he dealt with problems, Long Yan always criticized him for not being upright and fair, for not considering the image of the Dragon Transformation Palace and only caring about immediate interests.
Now, it was his turn. She prioritized saving her man, disregarding the bigger picture?
The more Yin Xun thought about it, the angrier he became. He wished he could attack Long Yan right now, but he held back.
Long Yi wasn't dead yet, and he hadn't completed his revenge. How could he give up everything because of Zhang Chi?
If he continued to obstruct, Long Yan would start to suspect him.
With the Gu in his body, Yin Xun didn't dare to act recklessly.
"Since you, the palace lord, prioritize your own interests, I won't say anything more. I just hope you remember what you've done today and how you used to evaluate me!"
With that, Yin Xun turned around and attacked the Water Monster, as if he had only blocked Long Yan earlier because of past grievances and had nothing to do with Zhang Chi.
Of course, Yin Xun had a backup plan.
Chen Yin and Cheng Feng played their roles at this moment.
In the midst of the chaotic battle, Chen Yin was hit by a tentacle and flew towards where Long Yan was.
He spat out blood and said to Long Yan, "Palace lord, the Monster King has extremely high defense. I'm afraid only your treasure sword can harm them. Please make a move!"
He made this request while injured, seemingly very serious.
Seeing this, Long Yan directly took out the big sword.
"Take the sword, go and use it!"
With that, Long Yan unleashed the Dragon Transformation technique and flew towards the direction of the signal flare.
Yin Xun: "..."
Chen Yin: "..."
Their plan had a small flaw in the details.
They were all thinking about stopping Long Yan from supporting Zhang Chi while ensuring their own safety. Seeing that Zhang Chi had already sent the signal flare, it must be very dangerous. If they delayed Long Yan a little longer, Zhang Chi would be gone.
There was also the possibility of Miao Yin Perfected Being going to support, but Miao Yin Perfected Being was also being watched by Cheng Feng, ensuring that time was being bought.
However...
Their scheming was in vain. Miao Yin didn't know the meaning of the red signal flare. Only the people from Sword Sect knew that it meant an extremely dangerous and urgent retreat. She thought it was a call for help and didn't know the severity of the problem Zhang Chi was facing.
And things had already become extremely chaotic here, so of course she had to help this side.
Miao Yin's choice was completely correct.
Different information leads to different decisions.
At this moment, Yin Xun could only pray that Zhang Chi would die quickly, rendering Long Yan's rescue ineffective.
However, he underestimated Zhang Chi's combat power.
A mere beginner in the Foundation Building stage would be easily killed by a fierce beast at the Foundation Building stage, let alone the fact that the Demonic Banner could gather more than one.
Yin Xun and Yi Ran's plan was to include the entire Sword Sect, including Chong Ling, in their calculations. They all had to die.
Therefore, the crisis brought by the Demonic Banner was beyond the resolution of the Divine Ability Realm.
This was just the beginning, and there would be more fierce beasts and monsters later. Even the Divine Soul elders would quickly deplete their true essence and divine sense.
However, Zhang Chi's swordsmanship was too strong.
He was using the purest swordsmanship to kill his enemies, without relying on sword techniques, which meant it was equivalent to ordinary attacks.
Of course, all his attacks were enhanced by true essence, which strengthened his power and speed. But compared to the scene of sword qi sweeping through, this kind of seemingly mundane fighting method was undoubtedly more efficient.
Moreover, Zhang Chi found a position to bottleneck the monsters. Even if there were more fierce beasts and monsters, in their limited intelligence, only a small range could attack Zhang Chi.
Zhang Chi found a giant rock about ten zhang high, leaning against it to avoid being attacked from the front and back. He would kill any enemy that came at him.
Chong Ling came to support and saw Zhang Chi single-handedly fighting against a tide of beasts.
She was also shocked. How could there be so many ferocious beasts here?
Chong Ling also realized that something was wrong, but the immediate priority was to rescue Zhang Chi.
"Lingxi Sword!"
Chong Ling summoned her magic sword, transforming it into hundreds of afterimages, and attacked the ferocious beasts below. For a moment, blood splattered.
After all, she was a sword cultivator at the Divine Soul realm, and her killing power was impressive.
Seeing this, Zhang Chi silently activated his storage ring and stuffed the corpses of the dead beasts into it.
There were too many corpses, and it was not convenient to deal with them at the moment. He would handle it when he had the time.
Chong Ling saw how thrifty and frugal he was and was speechless.
"It's already this late, why aren't you following me and leaving?"
Chong Ling didn't ask why there was such a large tide of beasts here. The immediate priority was to quickly take Zhang Chi away.
Zhang Chi said in a deep voice, "No, I can't leave yet. If we leave, innocent civilians will be affected."
Not everyone in the Immortal Cultivation World can cultivate immortality. Most people are mortals who provide cheap labor for cultivators. They usually have a low presence.
As the cultivators' strength grew stronger, many cultivators no longer regarded mortals as equals.
The essence of cultivators is still human, and they have not surpassed the level of mortals in terms of life. However, they have consciously drawn a line between themselves and ordinary mortals, considering themselves superior.
However, the righteous Immortal Cultivation World follows the rules and includes mortals in their mission to protect the world and its people.
As a result, people in the mortal world take pride in sending their descendants to the Immortal Gate and provide a constant stream of fresh blood for the cultivation sects.
The people in the mortal world are the foundation of the Immortal Cultivation World, but when it comes to danger, if the foundation is lost, it's lost. Self-preservation is the most important.
But Zhang Chi's decision to protect mortals at this moment left Chong Ling speechless.
But she also knew what kind of person Zhang Chi was, so she had to be the one to do it.
"Where do mortals' lives matter to you? Follow me and leave now!"
"Elder, I'm sorry, but Zhang Chi cannot obey your command!"
After saying that, Zhang Chi directly rushed into the group of ferocious beasts.
Chong Ling was immediately furious.
He actually used this method to force her not to forcibly take him away. What made Chong Ling even more nervous was that a Divine Soul-level ferocious beast appeared.
It was a large black catfish hidden in the black mist. Its Divine Soul intensity was not enough to be detected.
And now, the mist was approaching Zhang Chi.
"Be careful!"
Although Zhang Chi was brave, there was a huge gap in cultivation level!
While reminding him, Chong Ling controlled the Lingxi Sword and attacked the ferocious beast.
But at this moment, the ferocious beast had already made its move. A huge tongue shot out from the black mist, aiming at Zhang Chi with incredible speed.
"I'll dodge!"
Zhang Chi twisted his waist and made a backhand strike, stabbing the sword into the catfish's tongue.
The catfish howled in pain and retracted its tongue, along with the sword.
This sword of Zhang Chi's was not ordinary. It looked ordinary but was extremely sharp and sturdy.
It was specially crafted by Jiang Qingyun because she saw that Zhang Chi's sword always broke in the Talisman Treasure Sect's secret realm. So she specially made an ordinary-looking sword.
The grade of the sword was not high, but it was made of excellent materials. Over the years, Jiang Qingyun had accumulated quite a fortune as an assassin, and when she became the Sword Sect's sect master, she had also saved some things.
As a member of the Demon Race, she didn't need these things much, so she spent a lot of money to make an ordinary-looking treasure sword for Zhang Chi.
The ordinariness of the sword was a disguise. Jiang Qingyun also considered Zhang Chi's current weak strength and knew that a treasure might not be able to protect him.
So this sword was only a Low Grade Law Weapon, without too many engraved spirit formations, but the sword itself was extremely sharp.
The most important thing was that this sword was a semi-finished product and could be further refined in the future.
If the craftsmanship was good, it could become a Law Treasure. If the craftsmanship was not good, it could still be refined into a High Grade Law Weapon.
This was the confidence Zhang Chi had in fighting against the ferocious beasts here.
For a sword cultivator, a good sword was really important.
Of course, Zhang Chi's even greater confidence came from Gu Youyou.
He could switch to his main account at any time, so what was there to worry about?
The incoming wave of monsters could provide materials and reputation.
However, with the appearance of the giant catfish, Zhang Chi also realized the danger.
He couldn't be reckless anymore. What if another old cunning guy launched a sneak attack? He would be done for. Now, it was time for the appearance of the Ghost Ancestor!
Gu Youyou: "..."
Whenever there was a need for battle, he thought of her, this scoundrel!
Moreover, Zhang Chi limited her to only use the strength of the Foundation Building stage, and she couldn't use some of her other methods.
Wasn't this making it more difficult for her?
However, after the difficulty increased, Gu Youyou became even more excited.
In the blink of an eye, the person controlling Zhang Chi's body had changed.
"Bring forth the sword!"
