Chapter 391: Golden Spirit, 3 Sky Critical Level
"Thank you for your comfort, fellow Taoist. I still have some trivial matters to attend to in the palace, so I will return to Taiyin Star first."
"Fairy, please do as you please!"
Upon hearing this, Chang'e gently raised her jade hand, and her fingertips moved slightly. A faint silver light overflowed from her sleeves and surrounded her body, just like the first appearance of the moon, which was beautiful beyond words.
Then, she nodded slightly, and her figure gradually became blurred, turning into a stream of light, like the brightest star in the night sky, cutting through the void, and disappeared into the sky in the blink of an eye, leaving only a faint fragrance lingering in this star field.
Luo Shu watched Chang'e leave until the stream of light completely disappeared from his sight.
Then, he collected his thoughts and focused his attention on the Sun Star in front of him again.
"Let's go around Sun Star first before going back!"
After saying this, Luo Shu moved slightly, stepped lightly into the void, and turned into a golden stream of light, heading towards the core area of the Sun Star.
……
At the same time, Wen Zhong brought his master, the Golden Spirit Mother, and his uncle, the Three Xiaos, back to Jiepai Pass.
At this time, Huang Gun and his son Huang Feihu were sitting in the main hall, looking at the sand table in front of them, their brows furrowed, and they were discussing tactics in a low voice.
"Father, Master Wen has not returned yet. Could it be that he encountered some difficult problems on the way to the East China Sea?" Huang Feihu asked worriedly.
Huang Gun sighed softly and shook his head, his gray hair fluttering gently in the breeze.
"The East China Sea is more than a thousand miles away from here. Even if the Grand Master is proficient in the Five Elements magic and can travel through the clouds, it will still take a considerable amount of time." There was a hint of helplessness in his words.
"However, the battle is at a stalemate, and the positions of the enemy and us are obvious. We need to be more cautious."
As they were talking, a breeze blew by, bringing a little coolness and an unusual scent.
Huang Gun and Huang Feihu looked up almost at the same time. At this moment, a brilliant light suddenly flashed across the sky, like a meteor across the night sky, brilliant and mysterious.
Immediately afterwards, Wen Zhong's figure, accompanied by the Golden Spirit Mother and the Three Sky, appeared in front of the two of them out of thin air like illusory fairies, causing slight ripples in the space.
"Grand Master!" Huang Gun's voice was filled with uncontrollable excitement. He stood up suddenly, his body trembling slightly due to excessive surprise.
In those eyes that had experienced many vicissitudes of life, there was first a gleam of joy, as if a long drought had finally come to an end, but then the joy was replaced by deep worry.
His expression became complicated and heavy, "You are finally back. But... I feel ashamed of the Grand Master's trust..."
Upon hearing this, Wen Zhong frowned slightly, and his eyes revealed a bit of understanding and relief. He raised his hand gently, signaling Huang Gun not to blame himself too much.
"General Huang, the world is unpredictable, and the battlefield is changing rapidly. You don't need to worry too much. Tell me first, what happened during this period of time?"
Huang Gun took a deep breath, trying to calm his inner turmoil, and slowly spoke:
"During the time when you went to ask for help, the villain Jiang Ziya became more and more arrogant. He sent people to provoke and declare war under the city almost every day. His words were sharp and his actions were rampant. It was outrageous."
"I have always remembered the teachings of the Grand Master and have endured humiliation and refrained from fighting. I have guarded the checkpoints and have not engaged the enemy head-on."
At this point, Huang Gun's eyes dimmed and his voice became a little deeper:
"However, the shouting and cursing of the Xiqi rebels is like a maggot on the tarsal bone, which continues day and night and is really hard to listen to."
"Therefore, several immortals from Jiejiao were indignant at the continuous insults and finally decided to set up a large battle array outside the city to fight against the immortals from Chanjiao."
Huang Feihu, who was standing by, couldn't stop his indignation, so he interrupted Huang Gun and continued:
"All the immortals of Jiejiao have great magical powers and great magical abilities. The formations they set up are so exquisite that they are almost breathtaking."
"However, the people who took action on the side of the Chan Sect were Guangchengzi and Chijingzi, and the difference in strength between the two sides became apparent."
"In the end, all the immortals of Jiejiao died at the hands of Guangchengzi and Chijingzi."
After hearing this, Wen Zhong remained silent, with a hint of regret in his eyes.
Upon hearing this, Fairy Bixiao's pretty face was instantly covered with frost, and her beautiful eyes were filled with rage that seemed to be able to set the entire sky on fire.
"It's really abominable!" Her voice was filled with uncontrollable anger, like a sudden thunder in spring. "Guangchengzi is at least the eldest brother of the Chan Sect, but he actually bullied my Jie Sect disciples like this. He is simply shameless! I will never be able to get rid of the hatred in my heart if I don't take revenge!"
As she spoke, she waved her sleeves violently, creating a gust of wind that made the tables and chairs around her tremble.
Although Fairy Yunxiao has a gentle personality, her face is livid at this moment, and the anger flashing in her eyes is like an undercurrent surging beneath the sea, dangerous and deep.
"Junior sister, what you said is absolutely right." Her voice was soft, but every word was powerful, like a sharp blade in ice. "Guangchengzi and Chijingzi, relying on the power of the Chan Sect, look down on everyone and act recklessly, bullying our Jie Sect, which has no one."
"If we don't take action, won't the world laugh at us, the Jiejiao, for being weak and vulnerable?" Yunxiao gently stroked the ribbon around his waist, a look of determination flashing in his eyes.
Qiong Xiao gritted his teeth, his teeth itching with hatred, as if he wanted to chew every word and swallow it.
"Humph, Guangchengzi, Chijingzi, and other disciples of the Chan Sect, just wait and see!"
"I, the disciples of Jiejiao, are definitely not lambs to be slaughtered. I will not be a human being if I don't take revenge! I will definitely let you know how powerful I, Jiejiao, am!"
Seeing this, the Golden Spirit Holy Mother was also furious. She swept her eyes over the three junior sisters one by one, and finally fixed on Wen Zhong, and said in a deep voice:
"Three junior sisters, calm down for a moment. It's not worth it to get hurt because of those hypocritical followers of the Chan Sect."
"Since they dared to kill my disciples, they must pay the price."
"Disciple, take down the exemption from battle sign and go out of the city to challenge. I have not taken action for several Yuanhui. Today, I will try my hand on the people of the Chan Sect."
"Let them know that my disciples are not someone they can kill at will."
Upon hearing this, Wen Zhong bowed and said respectfully, "I will obey Master's orders!"
After saying this, he turned to look at the Huang father and son and said:
"General Huang, King Wucheng listens to your orders!"
"The old minister is here!"
"Go out of the city and challenge!" Wen Zhong's order was concise and powerful.
Upon hearing this, Huang's father and son looked at each other and nodded in agreement without saying anything more.
Then, the two turned around and walked outside.
……
After a while, the gate of Jiepai Pass slowly opened, making a dull and long sound, as if a sleeping beast was awakened, foreshadowing the coming storm.
Wen Zhong, dressed in a black robe and riding majestically on the black unicorn, led his army out of the city to fight.
Battle flags fluttered, swords and spears flashed coldly in the sun, and morale was high.
When they reached the place where the two armies were facing each other, Wen Zhong stared closely at Jiang Ziya in the opposite camp, with a hint of sharpness flashing in his eyes.
Then, he slowly raised his right hand and waved his fingers lightly. A young general quickly rushed out from behind him on a war horse. The horse neighed and dust flew, like a black lightning, breaking the silence of the battlefield.
"Xiqi boy, is there anyone who dares to fight this general?"
The young general's voice was loud and challenging. He held a spear in his hand, and the tip of the spear flashed brightly in the sun, as if it was going to pierce the sky and point directly at the Xiqi army opposite.
In the Xiqi army, after a brief silence, a general wearing golden armor and holding a sledgehammer slowly walked out to the front of the formation. His figure was as burly as a small mountain, and the ground trembled slightly with every step he took.
He stared at the young general opposite with a cold look, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth:
"Humph, boy, you dare to show off your skills in front of this general? Today, I will let you see how powerful this general is!"
As he spoke, he strode towards the center of the battlefield, swinging the sledgehammer in his hand, causing gusts of whistling wind that seemed to tear the air apart.
When the young general saw this, a hint of fighting spirit flashed in his eyes. He gripped his spear tightly, moved his body, and rushed towards the general on the opposite side like a flash of lightning.
"Watch out for the gun!" the young general shouted, and the long spear was like a dragon, bringing with it a sharp gust of wind, piercing straight into the opponent's vital points.
The Xiqi general snorted coldly, swung his hammer and met the spear.
There was a clang sound, the sound of metal clashing, sparks flying, and the two men retreated several steps each. It was obvious that neither of them had gained the advantage in this attack.
