Chapter 106: An Ominous Atmosphere
"I think I just mentioned the word 'fate', you all heard it," seeing the other party nod, Luo Yu continued: "My thoughts are consistent with my master sister's, wait until everyone wakes up or is sent out, at that time this place should change."
"What chance brought Miss Huang here?"
"I'm not sure, the idea of fate is just my personal guess, and besides, you probably have similar guesses in your minds too. If you believe me, then wait and see; if you don't, I have nothing more to say." Since it's fate, how can one explain it in detail? Wouldn't that be giving away one's own advantage? A reminder was already given earlier, and now they want to dig deeper, thinking she's easy to bully?
Ke Zhengdong was scolded by her, and he immediately felt displeased in his heart, but on his face, he smiled and said: "How dare I, how dare I, I naturally believe Huang Shimei, it's just that my heart is anxious, so... Hehe..."
Zi Xuan saw that this person was hypocritical and didn't bother to continue pretending, directly opening his mouth to drive him away: "Ke Daoyou, you can go back and respond to others now, we also need to take a break, please."
Upon hearing this, Ke Zhengdong secretly resented: Where do I need to go and respond? Everyone is already listening in on our conversation with their ears perked up. Hmph! The disciples of the Great Sect are indeed arrogant, but we aren't just loose cultivators, being treated so rudely by you all. When the opportunity arises, don't blame us for uniting against you.
Ke Zhengdong stormed back, exchanging glances with the others, and they all cast a glance at Luo Yu and the others, their eyes revealing malice. The atmosphere in the great hall suddenly became eerie.
Even the rough-skinned Sun Daniu noticed something was off, and he chuckled: "Jade sister, don't worry, they're just a few weak chickens. When the time comes, I'll snap one dead with one hand." As he spoke, he stretched out his palm and made a grasping motion, his finger joints cracking loudly, like the sound of a neck being snapped.
Ke Zhengdong and others were shocked in their hearts, and they didn't dare to move their eyes randomly again.
Luo Yu smiled: "I'm not worried, as long as I follow Ninth Sister. No one can bully me."
"Seventh Brother, Thirteenth Sister Sun's junior apprentice." Huang Luoxue opened her eyes and stood up.
Zi Ye and Sun Da Niu both paid their respects, Luo Yu teased with a smile: "Ninth sister, you're not cultivating anymore."
"It's just a matter of adjusting your breath. However, now that you've woken up from your illusions, why don't you hurry up and adjust your breath instead of idly chatting with people who have nothing to do with you?"
Huang Luoxue furrowed her brow, her face icy cold, as she lectured the three of them, causing them to hang their heads in shame.
In the distance, a group of cultivators suddenly felt a chill, and a crisis arose. Among the sixteen people floating in the air, only fourteen were currently awake. Two scattered cultivators were alone, while Ke Zhengdong used previous conflicts to gather eight people together. He had thought that Bing Mei Ren, who hadn't paid attention to Tian Xuan Sect's three people for a long time, must have a bad relationship with them. With their current cultivation at the initial stage of foundation building, it should be easy for the eight of them to deal with the three. Who would have thought that Bing Mei Ren actually joined forces with those three, and they seemed to get along well? Ah, even calling each other brother and sister, how could their relationship not be close?
Eight people shrank to one side, not daring to make a move. This Ice Beauty's foundation-building middle period cultivation was enough for her to take on three or four foundation-building early period cultivators alone. They shouldn't think about bullying Tian Xuan Sect cultivators anymore; as long as the Tian Xuan Sect cultivators didn't hold grudges against them, that would be fine.
With a glance, she saw that the eight people had become honest, and Huang Luoxue no longer paid attention to them. She just looked at her junior brothers and sisters with her eyes, waiting for them to finally close their eyes and rest before sitting down again.
Time flew by, and Song Ning woke up. After exchanging a few words with his fellow disciples, he took out a meditation cushion and sat down beside his junior sister Huang Luoxue. A scorching gaze flashed across his eyes, then he closed them to meditate.
Half a time later, Hou Yong woke up, and another fellow female cultivator also woke up, named Ruan Mingyan.
It was another round of conversation, and Hou Yong and Ruan Meiyan sat down cross-legged, closing their eyes to meditate. Before doing so, the former couldn't help but take a glance at Luo Yu, while the latter almost stuck her eyes on Song Ning.
Five hours later, the spiritual energy suddenly fluctuated, and everyone opened their eyes to see that the five floating cultivators had disappeared, leaving the remaining cultivators in the hall in an instant commotion.
"Don't worry, everyone. Those five fellow Taoists didn't pass through the illusion, they were probably transported out by the Tongtian Tower and won't be in any danger." Song Ning said softly.
Seeing Song Ning's affirmative words and calm demeanor, the crowd's agitated hearts slowly calmed down.
"Sung Shixiong, how can you be certain they were transported away and not swallowed up?" Er Rangzi Le Ying asked.
Maple Valley, only Le Ying was sucked into the Tower of Heaven, just because he was young, coincidentally they had just entered the secret realm, at that time Le Ying was suddenly wrapped in suction force, scaring Maple Valley's White Shixiong and others, White Shixiong and others rushed to chase after him, but in the blink of an eye, Le Ying disappeared from sight, until now, White Shixiong and others have not given up searching for Le Ying.
"My intuition tells me that they are not a threat, and neither are we in the hall at the moment." Song Ning's smile was warm and elegant, instantly captivating the female cultivators.
Twenty-six people were left in the hall, including seven from Tianxuan Sect, three scattered cultivators, and sixteen from fourteen sects in the Eastern Domain. At this moment, the number of people was compared, and the advantage of Tianxuan Sect suddenly appeared.
"I agree with Brother Song, I also didn't notice any malice from the Tongtian Tower. As a cultivator, one's intuition is always sharp, and I believe this is an opportunity for us." A delicate and charming female cultivator stepped forward, speaking eloquently, but her eyes were fixed intently on Song Ning, as if afraid that others wouldn't understand her thoughts.
"Yes, my intuition is the same, but I'm not as sure as Brother Song. It's indeed a great school, and it's not ordinary." The crowd nodded in agreement, showing their conviction.
Lè Yīng felt disheartened; the entire hall had only two Qi Refining stage cultivators, and he was one of them.
He had just woken up and found himself in a strange place, surrounded by unfamiliar monks. He was panicked in his heart, but suddenly saw a familiar figure, that "fat fairy", who was meditating with her eyes closed at the time. He wanted to sit beside her, but was driven away by a fierce-looking man named Xiong with a glare.
Just as he was at a loss, the spiritual energy in the hall suddenly fluctuated, and everyone stood up to check. The 'Fat Fairy' was no exception. After waiting for Song Shixiong to speak, he was both puzzled and wanted to attract the attention of the 'Fat Fairy'. Who would have thought that she just glanced at him and then shifted her gaze away, as if she didn't know him? The other cultivators looked at him with eyes like they were looking at an idiot. This was something he had never experienced in Fenglan Valley. His fellow disciples, both male and female, all spoiled him and gave in to him. Even Yun Shijie, who was prone to violence, only scolded him because she cared about him.
The plump fairy, Luo Yu, looked at Le Ying with eyes like a abandoned puppy. She instantly shifted her gaze away, thinking to herself: "Whose dog is it? Let them take their own dog home! It's none of my business!"
