Chapter 1594: Chapter 1594: Some People Can’t Be Let Go So Easily
"This Yusilan Heart Grass is just that the Power of Laws is too chaotic, so it cannot be directly consumed. I think if it is used in alchemy, to refine the Heaven and Earth Power within it, it might be of great use," said Mu Hanyan.
"This idea isn’t something those Great Alchemists of the Holy Court haven’t thought of before, but not a single person has succeeded," said Ye Lanfeng.
Even Ye Lanfeng said so, which made the others feel even more that Mu Hanyan was a bit whimsical. Although her Alchemy Technique is indeed formidable, in the Holy Court’s million-year history, countless Dan Dao Saints have appeared, and none have succeeded. How could Mu Hanyan possibly achieve it?
"Young Master Mu, I think it’s best to ignore it. Why waste your energy on such matters?" advised Sang Qinghe kindly.
"It’s fine, I will just give it a try," said Mu Hanyan.
Hearing her say this, the others felt it wasn’t appropriate to persuade her further.
Continuing towards the mountain range, it wasn’t long before they discovered a valley.
Everyone suddenly felt a lightness in their bodies, and the speed of their Cultivation Technique and Qi recovery increased significantly.
Evidently, within this valley was the Heaven and Earth Array Formation that Ye Lanfeng mentioned, which could resist the chaotic Power of Laws. Not only could it allow them to have a good night’s rest and recover their Qi, but it was also extremely beneficial for their cultivation.
Everyone was overjoyed and hurried towards the valley.
Suddenly, vague silhouettes appeared ahead, and faintly intense quarrels could be heard.
"Are they Holy Court Disciples?" Mu Hanyan glanced at Ye Lanfeng.
Those people were still a hundred feet away, and even with Mu Hanyan’s eyesight, it was hard to see clearly. But according to her guess, the ones appearing at the North Abyss Misty Plain at this time were likely the Holy Court Disciples who came to cultivate.
The Power of Laws in the North Abyss Misty Plain rose and fell like tides, and every ten thousand years, there would be a period when the Heaven and Earth Rules were the calmest, and the Power of Laws the weakest. This was also an excellent opportunity for many cultivators below the Sword Saint Realm. Taking advantage of this time, they could get a head start in comprehending the Laws, making future cultivation when they advance to Sword Saint easier.
"No, they are cultivators from the Continent Countries," Ye Lanfeng squinted and said to Mu Hanyan. This also showed the difference in their abilities. Even if Mu Hanyan’s Six Senses surpassed ordinary people, she still couldn’t compare to Ye Lanfeng.
"Cultivators from the Continent Countries?" Mu Hanyan was somewhat surprised.
"Last time, after the battle between the Longyan Mountain Range and the Netherworld Beast, the Mainland Countries suffered heavy losses. Out of thousands of masters at the Sword Saint Realm, less than one-third survived. Therefore, this time, with the Power of Laws weakening in the North Abyss Misty Plain, the various Imperial Families and families have sent their elite disciples for training," Ye Lanfeng explained.
As they spoke, the sounds of argument came faintly from afar.
"Put down the Heavenly Destiny Star Plate and leave this valley, and I can spare your lives. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being ruthless," a person said coldly.
"The Heavenly Destiny Star Plate was obtained by Brother Ye through great hardships, and as for this valley, clearly we arrived first. What right do you have to take it?" another person said unwillingly.
"What right? Just because my strength is greater than yours," the person from before said arrogantly.
"With the calamity looming over the Holy Court Continent, we cultivators from various countries should co-exist peacefully and face difficulties together. Isn’t your behavior going too far?" another person advised.
"Co-exist peacefully? Sure, as long as you hand over the Heavenly Destiny Star Plate and get out of this valley, I’ll be happy to coexist peacefully with you, hand in hand against challenges, haha," the person from before laughed wildly.
Mu Hanyan felt a stir in her heart, the voices of these two people sounded familiar, and with a thought, she remembered who they were and quickly rushed forward.
Zhuang Ping’an and others, upon hearing that those people were young elites from the Continent Countries and seeing them fighting among themselves, also became worried and hurried to follow.
Fortunately, they were still far from the Heavenly Curtain, without much danger. Along the way, they hadn’t encountered the Earth Split Abyss that Ye Lanfeng spoke of, so gradually they felt at ease and weren’t too tense.
In the valley, two groups were in a standoff, one with only six or seven people, led by Ye Fengyun, who had previous squabbles with Mu Hanyan but eventually made peace. The other group consisted of twenty to thirty people, led by Lv Junran, who had been defeated by Mu Hanyan in the Shangyue Sword Hero Academy competition.
"Lv Junran, are you really forcing me to make a move?" Seeing Lv Junran’s aggressive behavior, Ye Fengyun said in a deep voice.
"So what if I force you to make a move? Are you my opponent? I really want to see how capable the cultivators of Anyun Country are, and if everyone is like Mu Hanyan?" Lv Junran said with intense hatred.
"Mu Hanyan? No wonder you’re pressing us so hard, it’s because you were defeated by Mu Hanyan and still hold a grudge," Ye Fengyun said with sudden realization.
"You’re right. I’m giving you trouble because of Mu Hanyan!" Lv Junran gritted his teeth and said.
In the Sword Spirit Academy competition, being defeated so thoroughly by Mu Hanyan had always been considered a great shame by him. While he hated her to his bones, he also extended his hatred to other cultivators from Anyun Country. This was why he pressed Ye Fengyun and the others so hard upon seeing them.
Since he accidentally let it slip, he didn’t bother to hide it anymore.
"If you hate Young Master Mu so much, go seek your revenge on her, what’s the point of making things difficult for us?" A young man behind Ye Fengyun said contemptuously.
"I would like to seek revenge on her, but that bitch has gone to the Holy Court, so I’ll have to take it out on you guys instead. Blame your bad luck for being born in Anyun, hehe," Lv Junran said with a sinister laugh.
"What did you say!" Ye Fengyun’s expression suddenly changed. The previously calm and collected face was now filled with anger.
"I said, that bitch has gone to the Holy Court, so just..." Lv Junran continued with a sinister smile.
"Shut up!" Ye Fengyun drew his longsword with a clang, "Apologize immediately, or I will kill you."
An unprecedented fighting spirit and murderous intent emerged from Ye Fengyun, causing even his nearby companions to shiver uncontrollably and subconsciously take a step back.
Although Ye Fengyun had long buried that sliver of feeling for Mu Hanyan deep in his heart and had no unrealistic thoughts about her, it was only at this moment that he realized some people can’t be let go so easily. Hearing Lv Junran’s insults towards Mu Hanyan, he felt even more furious than if he had been insulted himself.
"You think you can make me, Lv Junran, apologize? What a joke!" Lv Junran gave Ye Fengyun a disdainful look and slowly drew his longsword as well.
"Fengyun, Rift Heaven!" Without further words, Ye Fengyun directly unleashed a sword slash.
