Chapter 196: Bait (1)

Translator: Daoist6fubtiW

Following that, the group of people led by the Third Elder left.

Silence returned to the Immortal Palace.

After a while.

“Since Ye Wudao doesn’t want to be the bait, how about sending Yao ‘er to take on the heavy responsibility?” the sect master of the Qianyuan Sword Sect said.”

“Senior Sister?”

The Sea Suppression Palace Lord looked at the other party with a shocked expression.

Through the clouds, he saw the gentle but determined face. The doubt in his heart finally turned into a sigh.”As you command, Sect Master.”

The others looked at each other and then cupped their hands.”We will obey the sect master’s decree!”

“Good!”

The sect master nodded.

“Father, i don’t object to capturing Daoist Master Shenjue, but why should I be the bait?”

In a majestic immortal palace, a cultivator wearing a green Daoist robe with a golden vertical pattern on his forehead said indignantly.

“Oh?”

Ye Yin’s expression was indifferent, and it was hard to tell whether he was happy or angry.” You mean, it’s been hard on you to let you be bait?”

“Father, that’s not what I meant.”

Ye Wudao’s arrogant face showed a hint of dissatisfaction.” I just don’t want to put my life in that person’s hands!”

“Who?”

It’s him, Qin Zhan…”

“Pa!”

Before he could finish his sentence, Ye Wudao felt his body fly up involuntarily. Then, he felt a burning pain on his left cheek.

Bang!

Ye Wudao’s body fell heavily onto the jade floor of the hall.

Inside the Immortal Palace.

When the maidservants standing on both sides of the hall saw this scene, they all lowered their heads and trembled in fear.

Ye Wudao stood up with a gloomy expression.

In the next moment.

The maidservants in the hall were burning with colorless flames.

In an instant, all the maids, whose cultivation was only at the ninth level of the Aura Refining realm, turned into ashes. They didn’t even have the chance to beg for mercy.

“Dad, are you satisfied?”

Ye Wudao said gloomily.

“You don’t deserve to call him by his name.”

Ye Yin’s expression did not change at all, as if the one who had just slapped him was not him, but someone else.

“The Sea-suppressing Hall Master is the most talented disciple in the history of our Qianyuan Sword Sect. You… Not worthy!”

Sensing the terrifying aura from his father, the anger in Wudao Ye’s heart was instantly extinguished. Cold sweat involuntarily flowed down his temples.

Seeing his son trembling and not daring to speak, Ye Yin’s eyes unconsciously revealed a touch of sadness, and his tone also became a bit gentler: “Does it hurt?”

Ye Wudao shook his head in horror.

“Father…”

Ye Wudao’s tone became cautious.” I’m worried that if I’m used as bait, if the Sea-calming Palace Lord takes this opportunity to take revenge on you, then my life would be…”

Hearing this.

Ye Yin glanced at Ye Wudao.

Seeing Ye Yin’s gaze, Ye Wudao did not dare to argue anymore. He hurriedly bowed and said embarrassedly,””Father, your son will take his leave.”

“Yes.”

Watching Ye Wudao slowly retreat, Ye Yin raised his head and looked at the flowing clouds outside the Immortal Palace, muttering,””Child, don’t blame me!”

Southwest Sea, Infinite Star Sea.

In the sky.

One after another, spirit ships blotted out the sky and sun as they flew from Guang ‘an Prefecture Immortal City towards Cangzhou Immortal City.

These spirit ships were the alliance army formed by the various large families of the Azure Continent.

On a Spirit Void Battleship.

Chen Daoxuan, Zhou Mubai, Zhang Xuanling, and Fire Spirit Daoist stood side by side.

“Brother Zhou, do you mean that Cangzhou Immortal City and Ye Wudao are just bait set by the Qian Yuan Sword Sect?”

“Yes.”

Zhou Mubai nodded.” The zombie tide on Lotus Island has been going on for so long, but there’s no news from Daoist God-End. It’s obvious that Daoist God-End’s target isn’t Guang ‘an Prefecture, but the entire Cang Prefecture!

He paused for a moment.” If we want to take down the entire Azure Continent, we must attack the Azure Continent Immortal City, the largest immortal city in the Azure Continent!”

Hearing this.

“What if Daoist Shenjue still doesn’t make a move?” Chen Daoxuan frowned.”

“Phew!”

Zhou Mubai let out a sigh of relief and muttered,””No, he will make a move!”

“Brother Zhou, what makes you so sure?”

“Because this time, the corpse riot in Cang Prefecture is not a simple riot, but a premeditated act!”

Before Zhou Mubai could speak, Zhang Xuanling said,””I just received news that Cloud Dream Pass has been attacked by the Xuan Qing Dao Alliance!”

“There are also signs of a large number of Black Pure Dao Alliance troops being active in Red Water Immortal City!”

“Do you mean to say that we’re working together from the inside?”

Chen Daoxuan couldn’t help but think of Xia Hong who had committed suicide in front of him, and a line in his heart gradually became clear.

“Daoist Shenjue has joined the Xuan Qing Dao Alliance?” he asked in a deep voice.”

“Not really,”

Zhou Mubai shook his head.” People like Master Shenjue won’t rely on anyone. To be precise, they use each other. Master Shenjue needs the Xuan Qing Dao League to relieve his pressure, and the Xuan Qing Dao League also needs him to create chaos for the Qian Yuan Sword Sect.”

“This…”

Chen Daoxuan was quite puzzled.” It should be very difficult to do it with just Daoist Shenjue, right?”

Although he didn’t know how strong the Qianyuan Sword Sect was, the fact that the Qianyuan Sword Sect didn’t even send a Nascent Soul Perfected Lord showed that suppressing the corpse chaos was not worth mentioning in the eyes of the other party.

“It’s very difficult to get to.”

Zhou Mubai also frowned and said in confusion,” Perhaps Daoist Shenjue still has some trump card that we don’t know about.”

Hearing this.

Everyone’s mood became heavier.

Now, the Azure Continent Immortal City was a chess piece, and so was their Azure Continent alliance army.

The real standard-bearers on the chessboard were the Qianyuan Sword Sect and the Xuan Qing Dao League. Even Perfected Shenjue was just a slightly stronger chess piece.

Of course.

With Daoist Shenjue’s personality, he would definitely not be willing to be a chess piece. He must have some unknown method to break the situation.

He just didn’t know.

Was it the Qianyuan Sword Sect who was better, or was it Master Shenjue who was better?

Facing this scene, Chen Daoxuan was unwilling, but he knew very well.

Whether it was in front of the Qianyuan Sword Sect, the Xuan Qing Dao League, or even in front of Daoist Shenjue, he and his family were all weak and had no right to bargain.

Strength was the only bargaining chip in chess.

He and the Chen family did not have such a bargaining chip. They could only be chess pieces for others.

Ye Wudao had a Nascent Soul cultivation father. He was unwilling to be a chess piece, but he could still escape.

The various families of the Azure Continent Alliance did not have such a backing that could save them from this disaster.

Besides…

Perfected Shenjue came for Cangzhou. As a local family in Cangzhou, if they did not contribute now, who were they waiting for?

The atmosphere was a little heavy.

Zhou Mubai smiled and waved his hand.” Forget it, let’s not talk about these unhappy things. No matter what, we have to save the Azure Continent Immortal City. We have to clear the zombie tide!”

“Brother Zhou is right.”

Daoist Fire Spirit nodded.

“Since we’re not going to talk about this, why don’t we talk about the way of the sword?”

“Very good!”

When they heard Zhang Xuanling talk about the sword, Zhou Mubai and Chen Daoxuan’s eyes lit up.

As sword cultivators, if they were most interested in a topic, the way of the sword would definitely be ranked first.

It was every swordsman’s dream to be able to talk about their understanding of the Tao of the sword with a swordsman of similar cultivation base and similar Tao of the sword.

However, whether in the Infinite Star Sea or the Celestial Cloud Continent, the number of sword cultivators was very small.

Not to mention, it was simply a fortuitous encounter to gather two sword cultivators with similar cultivation and sword path realms.

If it wasn’t for the corpse chaos in Cang Prefecture.

Zhou Mubai rarely had the chance to sit down with Zhang Xuanling and discuss swordsmanship.

When he heard that Zhou Mubai, Zhang Xuanling, and Chen Daoxuan were going to discuss Sword Dao, Daoist Fire Spirit immediately put on a helpless expression..
