"Ha ha ha… Your misty cloud sect is really shameless. Why didn't you stop Brother Shen Yi and ask for an explanation when he warned you three years ago? Now you want an explanation from my Xiao clan that has nothing to do with this case."
Xiao Yan's mocking laughter sounded; he glanced at the elder Yun Leng in disdain and added,
"Even if our Xiao Clan is an accomplice… It's not your retarded old man's turn to hold us accountable. I can leave whenever I want; you or your misty cloud sect are in no position to stop me."
After speaking, he turned around and walked toward the outside direction of the sect, while Yun Leng's expression became cold, and he ordered the law enforcement disciples,
"Hurry up, surround him. Don't let him leave the sect at any cost."
"Yes," The law enforcement disciples and other elders moved surrounding Xiao Yan.
On the other hand, far away in the void,
Both Shen Yi and Zi Yan were looking at the developing scene below intriguingly.
"Aren't you going to intervene? He won't be able to leave like that."
Zi Yan asked, looking at Xiao Yan surrounded and attacked by the elders, even after using his flying skill and heavenly flame. He couldn't outrun the three Dou King realm elders, and then he was trapped by these three elders using a combined sealing technique.
Shen Yi glanced at Xiao Yan trapped inside the sealing technique; he shook his head and replied calmly,
"Don't underestimate his luck; even if the whole sect attacks him now, he will survive somehow and grow up by leaps and bounds in return."
Zi Yan was startled, and just as she was about to doubt, she saw the sealing technique was frozen and destroyed by Hai Bidong; a surprise flashed through her eyes.
Yun Leng was also surprised by Hai Bidong's intervention; still, he, along with the other two elders, managed to overpower Hai Bidong.
A dark spear flashed through the void and pushed back the elders; slowly another figure appeared and rose up from the shadows.
"Now who are you?"
Yun Leng's brow furrowed, looking at the figures popping out one by one in his way.
"I, Ling Ying, will take him away today. I hope your Misty Cloud Sect don't get in my way; there are forces more powerful than this second-rate sect."
Xiao Yan and Hai Bidong were also surprised, looking at the unexpected figure. It was the same unknown dou huang they encountered before.
"Ling Ying? You are not from the Jia Ma Empire… But you shouldn't interfere with Misty Cloud Sect affairs. You shouldn't underestimate our sect."
Yun Leng scoffed hearing Ling Ying's introduction and then threatened in return; after that, he raised his hand, revealing a jade flute.
Immediately everyone's faces changed as they recognized the jade flute; it is the emergency summoning jade that was passed to the current sect leader by Yun Shen before retreating. The whole Jia Ma Empire knows about this jade.
Everyone recognized it because this jade presence was deliberately announced in order to deter the ambitious forces eyeing the misty cloud sect.
"I didn't expect him to be alive… Yun Shen."
The guardian of Jia Ma recognized the jade flute in Elder Yun Leng's hand, and even Hai Bidong's brow furrowed looking at it.
Yun Leng smiled cockily and started blowing the flute; immediately, a strange rhythmic sound spread through the whole sect and surrounding floating mountains.
The next moment, a heavy pressure spread around, covering the whole misty cloud sect; everyone's face changed as one of the mountain peaks burst and a figure flew outside from it.
The white figure was wearing an extremely plain, white-colored long robe. The gentle breeze brushed by, and his long robes fluttered, giving him a kind of otherworldly and elegant aura. His age did not appear very old, and his face did not have the wrinkles that an old man ought to have. Instead, it was like warm jade that was emitting a glow. If it were not for his long hair being snow white.
He is Yun Shan, the previous sect leader of the Misty Cloud Sect.
Everyone's expression sank, especially Fa Ma and Guardian Jia Xing Tian, seeing that Yun Shan is standing on the void without dou qi wings.
'Dou Ancestor…' A thought flashed through everyone's minds as they saw the flickering figure of Yun Shan.
Swish! Bang!
After each step he crossed a large span, and his footsteps left behind waves in the void that destroyed the surrounding floating mountains.
'This guy is really a show-off.'
Shen Yi speechlessly glanced at the destroyed mountains and oscillating void because of Yun Shan's steps.
"Are you sure he can still get away?" Zi Yan asked doubtfully, pointing at the Yun Shan below. Shen Yi glanced at her and nodded calmly.
"Well, he can… but I have to intervene now. I was just waiting for this guy's arrival. I will just solve this problem once and for all."
On the other hand, Xiao Yan glanced at the Yun Shan that appeared in front of them calmly.
"Old Sect Master," The disciple and elders greeted him respectfully, then Yun Leng pointed at Xiao Yan and spoke.
"Sect master, you arrived on time, or our sect would have been destroyed. This Xiao Yan is the culprit behind this chaos."
He dumped everything on Xiao Yan; everyone glanced at him speechlessly, and some even called him shameless in their hearts.
Yun Shan glanced at the injuries of disciples and elders, also the destroyed stage and structures, then he glanced at Xiao Yan and asked calmly,
"What do you want to say about yourself?"
Xiao Yan's expression became thoughtful, and then he walked forward and said calmly,
"I just want to say that my grievance with the misty cloud sect is over, and I won't give in against any slandering or accusations."
Immediately a heavy pressure affected him and Hai Bidong beside him.
Boom! Boom!!
Both of their figures fell below, and their stature bent as heavy pressure affected them. The colorful python sleeping in the Xiao Yan sleeves appeared outside, but it was also suppressed by the Yun Shan dou qi pressure.
