The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 2326: Chapter 2326: Min Lan, Get Out Here!

After Jing Yan left the room, Elder Kuo Lian immediately hurried out in a panic. By the time he left the room, Jing Yan’s figure had already disappeared without a trace.

”It’s over!”

”Fellow Daoist Jing Yan, this time it seems there’s no escape from disaster. Alas...” Elder Kuo Lian sighed heavily.

The likelihood of Jing Yan going to Huatong City to kill Min Lan Immortal Venerable successfully is very low, unless Min Lan Immortal Venerable is alone and happens to be intercepted by Jing Yan in a secluded place, then Jing Yan has a chance to kill Min Lan Immortal Venerable without delay. But once Jing Yan kills Min Lan Immortal Venerable, it’s certain death; even Slaughter God Hall doesn’t need to intervene, there will definitely be a group of people wanting to kill Jing Yan.

And if Jing Yan doesn’t have the chance to kill Min Lan Immortal Venerable, but if Jing Yan shows himself in Huatong City and is discovered, then Min Lan Immortal Venerable will definitely have Xima Immortal Venerable deal with Jing Yan. Xima Immortal Venerable is already extremely powerful, and with the added support of the city’s formations, Jing Yan’s chances of survival are very low. And even if he survives, escaping Huatong City would be difficult.

No matter how you look at it, Jing Yan is bound to die.

As for Elder Kuo Lian and the people from Mystic Moon Trading House, I cannot go to Huatong City to support Jing Yan, as the involvement is extremely complex. If mishandled, even the entire Mystic Moon Trading House could suffer losses. Elder Kuo Lian has helped Jing Yan so much, not because of any close relationship with Jing Yan, but because he wanted to befriend Jing Yan, recognizing Jing Yan’s potential.

Now, Jing Yan’s actions seem suicidal to him, so how could he allow the entire Mystic Moon Trading House to be buried with Jing Yan?

Anyway, he has already said what needed to be said, and tried his best to dissuade Jing Yan, but Jing Yan didn’t listen, leaving him without a choice.

Jing Yan repeatedly used Instantaneous Movement to travel.

The distance from Mystic Moon Trading House Headquarters to Huatong City is not very far; within half a cup of tea’s time, Jing Yan arrived at Huatong City.

This city of Huatong City is managed by a Shen Zhou Heavenly Monarch. Xima Immortal Venerable has long lived in Huatong City, but he does not directly manage the city.

In Faro Heaven, the Immortal Venerables under Wu Guo Heavenly Lord, like Xima Immortal Venerable, some live within a city, while others choose a suitable place to build a palace to reside. Yuantong Immortal Venerable, for instance, built a palace in a valley for residence and cultivation.

”Huatong City!” Jing Yan narrowed his eyes, staring at the city within sight.

He descended from the air and entered the city through the city gate.

In Faro Heaven, almost every city has Big Array defenses guarding it. Cities like Huatong City generally have strong defensive power, with numerous formations. Normally, not all city formations are activated, but a few run to prevent unexpected situations.

If Jing Yan chooses to forcefully breach the city, and cannot break through the city’s operating formations in one go, then the next moment, the entire city’s Protection Array will activate. By then, even if Jing Yan has the ability to break through the city’s array, he will waste time and energy needlessly.

Entering through the city gate is naturally very easy. Additionally, by entering through the city gate, he can verify whether Min Lan is indeed in Huatong City or not. If Min Lan isn’t there, he can also leave quietly.

Once inside the city, Jing Yan quickly confirmed the news: Min Lan was currently a guest at Xima Immortal Venerable’s mansion within Huatong City. Many cultivators in Huatong City have recently seen Min Lan Immortal Venerable in person.

Min Lan is a very high-profile person.

After confirming the news, Jing Yan went straight to Xima Immortal Mansion. This mansion is very large, but not many cultivators live within. There are no other buildings near Xima Immortal Mansion.

Inside Xima Immortal Mansion, in a hall.

Min Lan Immortal Venerable was here, drinking and making merry with Xima Immortal Venerable. At this small banquet, there was also an Immortal Rhythm Peak Cultivator, the Shen Zhou Heavenly Monarch overseeing the Huatong City area, named Xu Shun.

Xu Shun’s strength is considered formidable among Immortal Rhythm Cultivators, yet at a banquet hosted by Xima Immortal Venerable for Min Lan Immortal Venerable, he originally wouldn’t have been qualified to attend. Today, however, Xu Shun happened to come to Xima Immortal Mansion to report some matters. Recently, battles between Mystic Moon Trading House and Slaughter God Hall have occurred in the Huatong City area he oversees.

What Xu Shun reported to Xima Immortal Venerable was precisely this matter.

Of course, he might have chosen this timing deliberately, possibly using the report as an excuse.

Under normal circumstances, someone like Xu Shun wouldn’t be qualified to contact Min Lan Immortal Venerable. With Min Lan Immortal Venerable visiting Xima Immortal Venerable lately, Xu Shun saw this as a rare opportunity.

Xu Shun is under Xima Immortal Venerable’s command, and Xima Immortal Venerable has long lived in Huatong City, so his relationship with Xu Shun has always been good. Since Xu Shun came, Xima Immortal Venerable allowed him to join the banquet.

The banquet had only these three people, yet the atmosphere was lively. Xu Shun was very adept at flattery, with every word directed at Xima Immortal Venerable and Min Lan Immortal Venerable.

Good words, everyone likes to hear.

Due to Xu Shun’s ability to liven the atmosphere, Min Lan Immortal Venerable gradually warmed up to him, moving from initial indifference to being quite cordial.

”Haha!”

”Who doesn’t know the renown of Min Lan Immortal Venerable in Faro Heaven? I dare say even Lord Heavenly Master must give Min Lan Immortal Venerable face.” Xu Shun looked at Min Lan Immortal Venerable, continuously extolling him.

”Across the Heavenly Domain, who else... can connect Slaughter God Hall and Heavenly Gate Dao Sect?”

”That Wuxia Immortal Venerable, isn’t it said she has a Daoist couple relationship with Jing Yan? It’s rumored that Lord Heavenly Master thinks highly of Jing Yan. When Wuxia Immortal Venerable was forcibly taken by Slaughter God Hall, Lord Heavenly Master must’ve been very angry! But so what? Now, doesn’t Lord Heavenly Master remain silent?” Xu Shun praised Min Lan Immortal Venerable endlessly.

”Xu Shun, you’re quite the talker. Very well, I see much potential in you.” Min Lan Immortal Venerable turned his sinister gaze and chuckled.

”Thank you, Lord Min Lan, too kind!” Xu Shun showed a humble expression.

”Hehe, that little beast Jing Yan disrespected me, I will make him regret it. Once he returns from Nightmare City, I will have him kneel before me and beg for forgiveness.”

”Hmph, an Immortal Charm brat dares to be rude to me, Min Lan. Who does he think he is!” Min Lan Immortal Venerable spoke with disdain.

”I’ve heard this Jing Yan is quite strong; even though he’s in the Immortal Charm realm, he killed E Si Saint of Slaughter God Hall.” Xima Immortal Venerable squinted his eyes and said.

”That E Si was just a waste.” Min Lan scoffed, ”He, a Cultivator in Immortal Venerable Realm, couldn’t even beat an Immortal Rhythm Netherworld Realm; living was worth less than dying.”

”Min Lan, come out!”

At this moment, a furious shout echoed throughout the mansion!
