Chapter 1112: Chapter 1116: He is My Fiancé

“Understood, he is a disciple of Sage Qingjue, right?”

Ye Tiande looked coldly at Sage Qingjue.

This was the only explanation that could fully explain why Sage Qingjue would intervene.

“My disciple?”

Sage Qingjue shook his head with a bitter smile and said, “I’m just a mere cultivator at the fifteenth level of Qi Cultivation. How could I have the merit or ability to be his master.”

“A mere cultivator at the fifteenth level of Qi Cultivation? Old Daoist Fellow Qingjue, you’ve lived so long, your brain must have rusted!”

“Sect Master Ye, I advise you to calm down this incident quickly, otherwise the consequences are beyond what you can bear, even your Xuantian Sect cannot bear them.”

Sage Qingjue was no longer as relaxed and casual as usual.

As he spoke these words, a cold aura spread out from within him.

Everyone present felt a chill down their spine.

“Hahaha, are you trying to scare me? If you want to rely on Shu Mountain to contend with my Xuantian Sect, then my Xuantian Sect is ready anytime!”

Instead of being shocked, Ye Tiande laughed. Sage Qingjue’s words were too much!

“No matter what, he must die today!”

“Presumptuous!”

A thunderous shout burst forth, and a powerful aura surged, causing mountains and rivers to lose their color.

“Don’t think you’re the only one who has reached the fifteenth level of Qi Cultivation!”

Ye Tiande coldly stated, then also unleashed a fifteenth-level Qi Cultivation aura.

Instantly, the pressures of these two peak cultivators clashed, and the world fell silent.

The surrounding space became even more oppressive.

“Four elders, I will hold back Qingjue, you go and kill that brat!”

“Yes!”

The four elders exchanged a glance and spoke in unison.

Sitting cross-legged on the ground, calming the rigid force within, Xia Liu suddenly stood up.

“Since your Xuantian Sect is so stubborn, there’s no reason to let it continue to exist!”

As he spoke, Xia Liu changed his hand art, intending to unseal again.

“Young Friend Xia, you mustn’t do this.”

Sage Qingjue immediately shouted to stop him.

He knew the terror within Xia Liu’s Sea of Consciousness, and if the seal was undone in an instant,

Xia Liu would certainly be unable to control it.

At that time, what he would have to face might be Huaxia’s most formidable demon.

A demon with a fifteenth-level Qi Cultivation, the abilities he wielded would cause even Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators to tremble.

“Haha! Brat, show me whatever skills you have, I want to see who can save you today!”

Ye Tiande paid no heed to Xia Liu’s sealing.

Such childish tricks couldn’t scare him.

“Sect Master Ye, you are going to die.”

Looking at the aggressive Ye Tiande, Sage Qingjue’s expression finally turned grave.

He wasn’t sure about Xia Liu’s seal, but the demon thought that even Venerable Yun Fan couldn’t dispel — if Xia Liu unsealed it, this world would be thrown into chaos.

“Enough! You can stop acting. One-on-one, if you can still protect him, I won’t pursue previous matters.”

Ye Tiande was very confident in himself.

Even though his energy body hadn’t fully recovered.

But it was enough to restrain Sage Qingjue.

Four elders with the thirteenth level of Qi Cultivation could definitely kill Xia Liu.

“Sect Master Ye, your strategy is unworkable, why not include me?”

Just as Ye Tiande was about to order the four elders to attack Xia Liu,

a light laughter came down from the mountain peak.

Then, an ethereal figure descended, seemingly walking on air.

“Liu Hong from the Qingyun Sect!”

Seeing the newcomer, Ye Tiande’s heart momentarily descended into chaos.

“So it’s Liu Hong, the Great Elder of the Qingyun Sect.”

“Meeting Senior Qingjue today is truly a fortune,”

Liu Hong said, cupping his fists in respect.

“Calling me ‘senior’ is too much. You and I have similar cultivation, we’re all of the same path,”

“Senior Qingjue’s cultivation is profound; I, Liu Hong, as a later comer, dare not presumptuously equal myself to you.”

…

Watching the friendly exchange between the two, Ye Tiande’s face grew even darker.

He couldn’t have imagined that killing a mere tenth-level Qi Cultivation kid would involve Sage Qingjue and the Great Elder of the Qingyun Sect.

“As for these four elders, leave them to me.”

Suddenly, a person appeared in front of Xia Liu, followed by a man and a woman behind him—Lu Fang and Liu Mingyue.

“Lu Mu, Sect Master of the Qingyun Sect!”

Seeing Lu Mu, Ye Tiande grew even more anxious.

With such a figure here, there seemed to be no gain from today’s endeavors.

“Brother Xia, are you alright?”

Seeing Xia Liu, whose face was a bit pale, Lu Fang quickly asked.

“Thank you for your concern, Brother Lu, I’m fine.”

Xia Liu smiled bitterly. It was miraculous enough that Sage Qingjue had come.

Never had he imagined that even the Great Elder and the Sect Master of the Qingyun Sect would arrive.

Of course, this was absolutely related to Liu Mingyue and Lu Fang.

These two had involved their families to come help him.

This favor would be hard to repay.

Liu Mingyue stole a glance at Xia Liu and seeing he was alright, didn’t say much more.

“Lu Mu, Sect Master of the Qingyun Sect!”

Seeing the formidable fourteenth-level Qi Cultivation force in front of them, the four elders of Xuantian Sect’s expressions shifted.

“Haha, Sect Master Ye, how about it? Do you still want to fight?”

Liu Hong laughed heartily, loving the sight of Ye Tiande’s twisted expression.

“Liu Hong, he killed my son, why are you protecting him?”

Ye Tiande gritted his teeth in anger, turning to Sage Qingjue and roaring, “And you, Old Daoist Qingjue, isn’t it a timeless truth that murder should be repaid with life? Do you intend to bully the few with the many?”

“For example, if your junior wanted to take my daughter’s treasure, but ended up being killed by her instead, what would you do?”

Liu Hong retorted ungraciously.

Murdering for loot and then getting killed in return only proved one’s incompetence, nothing more.

“He’s just a loose cultivator, and yet you still target me. Could it be that you’re treating the agreements our ancestors signed as a joke? Qingyun Sect, Shu Mountain, you should weigh whether you can withstand the allied onslaught of the Four Great Immortal Sects?”

Since Xia Liu wasn’t a member of one of the Five Great Immortal Sects, Ye Tiande could use the old agreements to threaten the Qingyun Sect into withdrawing.

As long as Liu Hong and Lu Mu weren’t involved, relying only on Sage Qingjue of Shu Mountain, he wouldn’t be able to turn the tide.

Speaking of the old agreements, Lu Mu and Liu Hong were aware,

When incidents occurred outside the Five Great Immortal Sects, no matter what, the other sects couldn’t get involved.

After all, many conflicts are often triggered by trivial matters,

So back then, the Five Great Immortal Sects signed a ceasefire agreement.

When any sect handled matters outside, no other sect could participate.

If anyone violated this, they would face the united assault of the other sects.

“Who said he was a loose cultivator? Xia Liu inherits Shu Mountain, grew up in the Huaxia Realm, belongs to a reputable sect, and now he is my fiancé, so he is part of the Qingyun Sect.”

During the silence at the scene, Liu Mingyue suddenly spoke.

Err… err… err…

Xia Liu was instantly stupefied, and so was Lu Fang.

Liu Hong’s eyes widened in disbelief at his daughter.

She actually said that, putting her entire happiness on the line…
