Chapter 662 A Ten-Year Promise
After hearing the shout, Yao Li’s expression changed drastically. She looked in the direction of the voice and saw a white figure flashing over. There were nine other figures following closely behind.
The leader was a woman dressed in a white outfit. Her long hair fell over her shoulders and she carried a sword on her back. Her face was delicate and she had a regal manner.
She hovered in the air and looked like a Saint. The nine people behind her were also at the level nine of Supreme Power Realm and one of them was Feng Wu.
Xuanyuan Lige was the current Master of the Cihang Sword House and the other eight people were the eight elders of the Cihang Sword House.
“Xuanyuan Lige, I did not expect you to come!”
Yao Li’s expression was extremely solemn. The Devil Gate and the Cihang Sword House had fought for so many years and they had never been as passive as they were now.
There were two Saint-level masters and 11 ninth level supreme power masters on the other side. Such a powerful force was enough to crush them.
But at this time, there was no way to retreat. With her cultivation, of course, she could escape unscathed. But the six elders behind her would definitely not escape from Xuanyuan Lige’s sword and there was another Saint, Jia Shihan.
The reason why she came to Shanghai this time was because of the Demonic Seed in Nalan Wuxia’s body. According to her calculation, the Demonic Seed was about to hatch.
There was another new Saint from the Cihang Sword House, which put a lot of pressure on them. If the Demonic Seed could be reborn, the Devil Gate would have two Saints, which was enough to compete with the Cihang Sword House. Therefore, she brought the six elders along to protect the seed.
She did not expect the Cihang Sword House would take this opportunity to set a huge trap for them.
If the Demonic Seed could successfully hatch, it would be fine. However, Qin Haodong actually stopped the Demonic Seed from being reborn with seven needles. Moreover, he used the Soul Refining Grass to kill the primordial spirit of Yao Li. This was completely beyond her expectation. freew(e)bnove(l)
Xuanyuan Lige said, “We’ve been fighting for so many years. It’s time to end it today.”
Yao Li shouted, “Do you really want to fight to the death, Xuanyuan Lige? Even if you have the advantage today, if you really want to fight, you will have to pay a heavy price.”
“Killing evil is our duty. As long as we can kill you, it doesn’t matter how many lives we have to sacrifice!”
Xuanyuan Lige said to the people behind her, “Elders, it’s time to kill demons!”
“We will follow you and slay the demons!”
Jia Shihan, Feng Wu and the other elders shouted and pulled out their swords, one after another. For a moment, Sword Qi swirled about everywhere, which was breathtaking!
Despair flashed across Yao Li’s eyes. The difference in strength was so great that the result of the fight could be imagined. However, she still shouted fiercely, “Elders, even if we have to die, we have to capture some people from the Cihang Sword House to die with us.”
Xuanyuan Lige looked solemn. She raised her hand and pulled out the sword on her back. A life-and-death battle was about to break out. At this moment, someone next to her shouted, “Wait a minute.”
Everyone turned their heads and saw that it was Qin Haodong who was speaking.
Xuanyuan Lige did not say anything and said, “Haodong, what do you want to say? Let’s talk about it after we kill these evils of the Devil Gate.”
Qin Haodong said, “These people can’t be killed. Let them go!”
After he finished speaking, the expressions of the others suddenly changed. Not only were the people from the Cihang Sword House shocked, but even those from the Devil Gate were also puzzled.
Logically speaking, he should have taken the opportunity to take revenge since he was about to be killed by Yao Li just now. How could he let these people go?
Xuanyuan Lige kept a straight face and did not say anything. She knew that the young man in front of her was the sacred master of the Cihang Sword House. The reason why she did not greet him immediately was because she was afraid that Qin Haodong’s identity would be revealed and the strong people of the Devil Gate would hunt him down.
According to the rules of the Cihang Sword House, the sacred master was the master of the Cihang Sword House. They had to unconditionally obey all the orders of the sacred master, so she remained silent.
Feng Wu said anxiously, “Haodong, what do you mean? Do you know how much time and effort it took us to set this trap?
“After so many years, we finally found an opportunity to severely injure the Devil Gate. How can we let them go?”
She really felt that this opportunity was too rare. Even if they could not kill Yao Li today, she would definitely be seriously injured. None of the other six elders at the ninth level of the Supreme Power Realm could leave. All of them had to die here.
“In fact, there’s no need to do that. We’ve been fighting for so many years and it’s all been a mistake.”
Qin Haodong knew that today was the best time to tell the truth, so he briefly told the story of how he entered the Forbidden Area of the Jiuli Tribe and heard the true story of the ancient war, in front of many surprised eyes.
In the end, he said, “In fact, Chi You was not killed by the Yellow Emperor, but by the Alien Demon.”
Moreover, the survivors of the Alien Demon were still on earth. They were waiting for an opportunity to tear open the space hole again and lead their people to earth to totally wipe out our human race.
“Now we don’t have the ancient Capables like Yellow Emperor and Chi You. If the space gap reopens, what we need to do is to unite, improve our strength as much as possible and eliminate all the remnants of the Alien Demon.”
After he said these words, everyone had horrified looks on their faces, including Xuanyuan Lige, who had been calm all the time. Her face was also full of horror!
Qin Haodong continued, “So it’s a mistake for the Cihang Sword House to fight against the Devil Gate for so many years. These are all the evil tricks left by the Alien Demon Emperor. We have a common enemy, so there’s no need to continue fighting.”
Yao Li was shocked. The Devil Gate and the descendants of the Yellow Emperor had fought for so many years. Could it be that it was all a mistake and that they had been used by others? She could not accept it for a while.
She said, “Boy, why should we trust you?”
Qin Haodong said, “I’m not a kind-hearted person. I did kill your Four Heavenly Kings, but that was before I knew this truth.
“If it were not for the big threat from the Alien Demon and for the sake of the human race, do you think I would let you go?”
“The reason why we let you leave is because we are all strong. In order to preserve the strength to fight against the Alien Demon, we should not kill each other.”
Yao Li lowered her head and said nothing. As Qin Haodong said, the Cihang Sword House had the absolute advantage now. There was no need to lie to her at all.
Qin Haodong said, “I’ve found traces of the Alien Demon, which means that it will not be long before they take action. I hope you can focus on the overall situation. At least don’t kill each other in a short time.”
She turned her head to look at Xuanyuan Lige. “What do you think?”
She did not know Qin Haodong’s identity. In her opinion, the final decision was still in the hands of Xuanyuan Lige.
Xuanyuan Lige nodded and said, “I believe it’s true. In order to maintain our strength, you can go.”
If this had been said by someone else, she might have thought it was just a story. But now it was the sacred master of the Cihang Sword House who was talking about all this, so she had to treat it cautiously.
Yao Li’s expression was shocked. “Are you sure you want me to leave? This is a rare opportunity that you can’t find in thousands of years.”
Xuanyuan Lige said, “As he said, it’s just a misunderstanding. We’ve been fighting for thousands of years. We should have a break now.”
Yao Li said, “Do you really believe this little brother’s words?”
Unconsciously, her way of addressing Qin Haodong had changed.
“I believe him!”
“Very well then. Since you choose to trust him, then I will believe him too,” said Yao Li. “On behalf of the Devil Gate, I swear to the heavens that for a period of ten years, I will not take the initiative to attack the Cihang Sword House.
“Ten years later, let’s see if what he says is true or not. If the Alien Demon makes an appearance, then what he says is true. If everything is calm, then what he says is false. We from the Devil Gate will continue to avenge our ancestor, Chi You.”
After that, she turned around and left with the six elders behind her.
“I, Xuanyuan Lige of the Cihang Sword House, pay my respects to the sacred master...”
“My respects to the sacred master...”
“My respects to the sacred master...”
After the people of the Devil Gate left, under the leadership of Xuanyuan Lige, a group of people from the Cihang Sword House greeted Qin Haodong together.
Qin Haodong was slightly stunned. He waved his hand and said, “We don’t need to be so formal.”
He turned around and came to Nalan Wuxia’s side. At this time, the primordial spirit in the Demonic Seed had been burned clean by the Soul Refining Grass. Without the control of the primordial spirit, the Demonic Seed in her dantian had also stopped growing. But at this time, it had turned into a white bead, which was formed by pure inner Spirit power.
Nalan Wuxia’s cultivation remained at the peak of Level Nine and she had lapsed into a coma.
Qin Haodong knew that her skills had improved so much in succession. She had consumed too much mental energy. He checked her pulse to make sure that there was nothing wrong and did not attempt to rouse her.
Feng Wu said, “Haodong, is what you just said true? Is there really an Alien Demon?”
Xuanyuan Lige scolded, “Feng Wu, how can you talk to the sacred master like that?”
“Uh... Master, I’m in the wrong.”
Feng Wu said quickly. She was used to being with Qin Haodong, but now she realized that her master was by her side.
Qin Haodong said, “There’s no need to be so formal. You can call me Little Qin.”
Xuanyuan Lige hurriedly said respectfully, “Sacred master, I don’t dare.”
Qin Haodong shook his head. He really did not understand why there was such a conservative person in the current society. It seemed that he had to seize the time to spread the Xuanyuan Skill in the future and let these women marry.
He said, “How did you get here today?”
Xuanyuan Lige said, “Ever since you were besieged in Hong Kong, we increased the surveillance on the people of the Devil Gate. We found that the other elders of the Devil Gate had all come to Shanghai, and some of them were even about to take action. So I rushed over with my people to protect you.
Qin Haodong said, “Well, it’s all over. We should not have any conflicts with them in the future.”
“Yes, sacred master.” Xuanyuan Lige said, “Please give us some instructions on what to do in the next round.”
