Chapter 480 You can't tell Sister Xian'er
"Hiss!!" Shen Yun gasped, quickly reaching out to support Ao Fei, who was about to collapse.
"This... don't cry. This isn't your fault; it was purely an accident."
"Waaaaah..." Ao Fei remained silent, only covering her face and sobbing uncontrollably. Even Shen Yun could tell from her cries that she was very sad.
The girl was clearly scared.
'What a mess!' Shen Yun was speechless, never expecting things to turn out this way!
No wonder I felt a sense of joy when the Yin and Yang primordial energies converged; this is the reason.
Seeing that Ao Fei kept crying, Shen Yun knew that she needed time to calm down, so he could only wait silently.
After a long while, Ao Fei's crying gradually subsided, and she murmured in a trembling voice, "Brother Yun, you must not tell Sister Xian'er about this."
Although it was an accident, no matter the reason, once it's told, it will definitely make Sister Xian'er prejudiced against her.
In her heart, Sister Xian'er was the best, and she didn't want this matter to become a thorn in their hearts.
“Actually, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with being honest,” Shen Yun said. “Xian’er is sensible, and we should tell her the truth…”
"No!" Ao Fei interrupted him in a panic:
"Please, Brother Shen, I don't want Sister Xian'er to know!"
It felt like she had secretly betrayed Sister Xian'er; even though Sister Xian'er was magnanimous, she would still feel guilty.
"Alright then, we'll do as you say." Seeing her resolute attitude, Shen Yun agreed.
Consort Ao finally breathed a sigh of relief. Only then did she realize how open and honest the two of them had been. Her face flushed slightly, she crossed her arms and whispered:
"Brother Shen, you, you close your eyes."
"Hmm." Shen Yun quickly closed his eyes and noticed that Ao Fei slowly got up.
Although she was a cultivator, she was still a woman and even stood up unsteadily. Shen Yun quickly supported her and silently channeled his immortal energy into her to regulate her body.
Be careful.
"Mmm~..." Feeling a warm sensation within her, Ao Fei gently bit her pink lips and stole a glance at Shen Yun, whose eyes were closed. A sweet feeling inexplicably welled up inside her.
'Brother Shen is still very considerate...'
But she could only whisper these words in silence; even though she had feelings for Brother Shen, she could only keep them to herself.
Sometimes, liking someone doesn't mean you can have them just because you want them, which will undoubtedly hurt Sister Xian'er.
After tidying up, the two left the Jade Pool.
The yin-yang mist flowing in the pool had long since disappeared and entered the two people's bodies.
After looking around, Shen Yun asked softly:
"Consort Ao, do you think Qinglian has any further guidance?"
The ancient Heavenly Court possessed three supreme treasures: besides this broken Taiji Yin-Yang Diagram, there were also the Taiyi Bell and the Nine Provinces Divine Sword, all of which were top-grade Chaos treasures.
"Okay, Brother Shen!" Ao Fei had already adjusted her mood and summoned the Chaos Green Lotus upon hearing his words.
However, the little one remained still, quietly hovering in her palm.
Ao Fei explained, "Brother Shen, there shouldn't be any treasures nearby. It only makes a sound when you get close."
"Let's go then." Shen Yun nodded slightly, controlling the Void Creation Cauldron to protect the two of them, and walked forward.
If we go back the way we came, there will definitely be many cultivators behind us. If we encounter them, they might ask us all sorts of questions. It's better to find another direction to leave in a quieter way...
……
"We can't withstand the attack of this phantom at all!!!" At the entrance to the back mountain of the Ancient Heavenly Court, the auras of the Dao Ancestors fluctuated, and they all looked at the mountain range in front of them with fear in their eyes.
In the middle of the crumbling mountain range, a giant phantom clad in golden armor was stuck.
Judging from the numerous wounds on the other party's body, they appear to be celestial soldiers who perished here after an ancient war.
But anyone who dares to enter through this entrance will be attacked automatically by the spear that materializes in his hand.
Many Dao Ancestors present had tried to approach with their magic weapons, but even for Dao Ancestors as strong as those at the sixth level of the Heavenly Realm, their attacks with magic weapons were completely ineffective.
Those with lower cultivation levels were even more injured by the backlash from the magic weapon.
The prolonged siege made the group of cultivators consider giving up.
"I know that you fellow cultivators have your concerns and are all thinking of preserving your strength." As the Dao Ancestor with the highest cultivation level present, Fu Chuan looked around at the twenty cultivators present and said in a deep voice:
"But the golden armor phantom's light has dimmed, and it obviously won't last much longer! Once we break through it, we can enter the ancient Heavenly Court ruins to explore for treasures!"
"If we give up now, all your previous efforts will have been in vain!"
His words were undoubtedly inflammatory, causing the Dao Ancestors to frown slightly.
Besides them, cultivators in other places have also found the entrance to the ancient ruins and are frantically attacking the golden-armored phantom, fearing that if they are a step behind, they will miss out on the treasures inside.
But the progress should be similar to theirs.
If they give up now, all their previous efforts will have been in vain.
Seeing that everyone was silent, Fu Chuan knew that his persuasion had been accepted, and signaled everyone to continue attacking for another half an incense stick's time!
If it still doesn't work, then everyone can just disband.
After all, attacks require energy, and if we continue, we'll run out of strength and it will be futile to fight for the treasure.
"Alright! Let's do as you say, fellow Daoist, and attack for another half an incense stick's time!" The crowd agreed one after another and began to recklessly attack the golden-armored phantom.
The effect was remarkable. In less than half an incense stick's time, the golden-armored phantom stuck between the mountain peaks was finally blasted apart.
'Getting these old foxes to do the work is really a hassle!' Fu Chuan looked at the road extending from the mountain peak, a smile on his face.
"Fellow Daoists, we will need to look after each other after entering the mountains. This place is not like the outside world!"
At this point, the smile on his face vanished:
"If anyone tries to harm others inside, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
With his assurance and the golden armor broken, the crowd's emotions were stirred up:
"Fellow Daoist Fu, rest assured, we understand!"
"Fellow Daoist Fu is absolutely right! We must all work together once we're inside!"
Seeing everyone's response, Fu Chuan was secretly delighted.
He came here because the cultivators here are relatively weak.
Firstly, it allows him to easily control the situation. If a top-quality treasure appears, he can easily use underhanded tactics and escape, since no one knows anyone else anyway.
Secondly, even if he doesn't find any treasures, he can still accumulate prestige and make acquaintances with other cultivators here.
"Let's go!" Pulling himself out of his thoughts, he waved his hand and strode into the mountains.
Others followed closely behind, afraid of missing the opportunity.
But as the group entered the mountains, they saw a man and a woman flying towards them.
The woman in the lead held a blue lotus flower, and her cultivation level was only... fifth level of Loose Immortal?!
No way, a wandering immortal is actually here?!
'It seems that the blue lotus in her hand is a great treasure!' In an instant, Fu Chuan's eyes flashed with a sharp light.
The same expression appeared in the eyes of the surrounding Dao Ancestors.
How could a mere rogue cultivator, an existence as insignificant as an ant, possess such a treasure?!
