Chapter 1755
Chen Xuan ignored the Second Elder's angry rebuke, but upon hearing the First Elder's "well-intentioned reminder," he abruptly turned around, a cold sneer on his face:
"As Yao'er's master, you have taught her cultivation since she was a child. All the great paths she has cultivated in this life were personally taught by you, and she will inherit your lineage and continue to move forward in the future. Even if you perish one day, your great path will continue to flow in this universe through her body—you are right, aren't you?"
Upon hearing this, the Grand Elder was struck dumb, staggering back two steps, his face deathly pale. His finger trembled as he pointed at Chen Xuan, and he opened his mouth several times but could not utter a single word, as if an invisible boulder had blocked his throat.
Chen Xuan pressed on relentlessly, his invisible aura growing heavier with each step, his words like a thousand steel needles piercing the Grand Elder's heart:
"But now, your personal disciple is being plotted against by forces from all sides, and her life is hanging by a thread. As her master, it's one thing for you not to protect her from the storm, but you actually condone this disgraceful act of treating her like a commodity for sale?"
The contempt in his eyes was almost tangible as he stared intently at the Grand Elder: "Laughable, and even more pathetic. I have seen those small sects on insignificant stars, even if their elders are only at the Myriad Manifestations Realm or the Nascent Soul Realm, when their sects are destroyed, they would rather rush towards powerful enemies like mayflies trying to shake a tree, or stand in front of them like mantises trying to stop a chariot, risking their lives to buy their disciples a chance to escape, just so that the Great Dao they have comprehended in their lives can be preserved as a spark."
"Hehehe..." Chen Xuan's laughter was full of undisguised contempt. "And what about you? Is this how you abandon your disciples when you claim to be passing on the Great Dao?"
"You're talking nonsense! You're being insolent!!!" The Grand Elder, a dignified First-Class Celestial Immortal, was forced to cough up blood by a few words from a junior in the Void Reversal Realm. His Dao Heart cracked instantly, and his eyes were filled with shame, indignation, and rage.
Chen Xuan showed no sign of stopping, his gaze sweeping over the two elders like an icy blade: "After this matter, I intend to cripple Yao'er's cultivation. The 'Great Dao' cultivated by these so-called masters of Qilin City is not worthy of her inheritance and development."
"Boy, you are courting death!"
These words were like igniting a powder keg. The First Elder and the Second Elder were both enraged. Their Celestial Immortal aura erupted without reservation, and the power of the Great Dao condensed in their palms. It looked as if they were about to kill this arrogant junior on the spot.
However, at that moment, a figure suddenly blocked Chen Xuan's path—it was Lin Yuqiong.
Without hesitation, he activated the protective array of the young master's mansion in Qilin City. Hundreds of ancient restrictions were instantly activated, like a sleeping dragon suddenly awakening. Countless runes flowed in the void, forming an indestructible barrier.
"Qilin City belongs to my Lin clan, not to you scheming elders!" Lin Yuqiong's voice was as cold as iron, filled with unprecedented resolve. "If you dare to lay a hand on Brother Chen Xuan again, don't blame me for being ruthless and activating the ultimate killing restriction!"
The First Elder and the Second Elder were instantly suppressed by the pressure of the great formation. It was a killing formation that the ancestors of Qilin City had painstakingly reinforced layer by layer. Once it was fully unleashed, it was enough to annihilate a Celestial Immortal.
Even though they were both first- or second-class Celestial Immortals, they felt a tremor from the depths of their souls and dared not make the slightest move.
The two stared in astonishment at Lin Yuqiong, who stood in front of Chen Xuan, as if they were seeing him for the first time—they simply couldn't believe that Lin Yuqiong would use such an ancestral formation, capable of threatening their lives, for an outsider.
"Hahaha...Good, good indeed!" The Grand Elder looked at Lin Yuqiong, two streams of turbid tears rolling down his cheeks, his laughter filled with endless sorrow. "What a fine 'Qilin City is not the Qilin City we are waiting for,' what a fine Qilin City of the Lin Clan! Good! Good! Good!"
