Chapter 993 Supreme Elder
Chapter 993 Supreme Elder
At this moment, an extremely powerful aura suddenly descended, as heavy as a mountain pressing down on one's head, causing everyone present to tremble.
In an instant, the originally noisy battlefield became silent, and everyone widened their eyes and stared at the old man who suddenly appeared.
Time seemed to stop at this moment, and the whole world froze.
Everyone's heartbeat was audible, and the tense atmosphere was suffocating.
What was even more shocking was that as soon as this figure appeared, he attacked with a force as powerful as thunder and easily defeated the Black Dragon Heaven and Earth Dharma Image.
There was a loud bang, and the black dragon let out a painful roar, then turned into starlight and dissipated in the air.
This sudden change caused the whole place to fall into silence. Everyone stared at the figure in amazement, completely forgetting words and actions.
It was not until a moment later that a cry of surprise broke out from the crowd:
"The Supreme Elder!"
Li Wenfu was the first to come back to his senses and shouted loudly with a look of joy on his face.
His voice broke the deadlock, and the others seemed to have just woken up from their dreams and started cheering.
"It really is the Supreme Elder! We are saved now!"
Lin Fengze, Qin Yuntian and other masters also showed surprise on their faces. They spoke to each other in low voices, but could not hide their excitement and admiration.
The old man known as the Grand Elder stood with his hands behind his back, his figure as straight as a pine tree, exuding an unparalleled majesty.
His eyes were as sharp as lightning, quickly scanning the entire battlefield, as if he could see through everything with just one glance.
Then, his sight fell on Li Anxuan who was standing in the air not far away. His brows frowned slightly, and he was obviously not unfamiliar with this opponent.
The two looked at each other from a distance. Although there was no verbal communication between them, it seemed as if invisible sparks were colliding, causing ripples.
Then, the visitor slowly turned his head and looked at Li Wenfu with a sharp gaze, and then asked in a serious tone:
"What on earth is going on? Why is there such a fierce fight here? Have you all completely forgotten the sect's rules?"
His voice was like a huge bell, deep yet powerful, echoing continuously in this vast space, as if it would penetrate everyone's eardrums.
When Lu Chen heard this, his heart trembled violently, and an ominous premonition instantly surged into his mind.
He thought to himself: This old guy is just standing there asking questions, could it be that he has no intention of taking any action at all?
If that was true, then why did he come all the way here? Was it just to act as a peacemaker?
Thinking of this, Lu Chen felt his mood becoming heavier.
At this moment, Li Anxuan also cast a scrutinizing look at the person who came.
After a brief eye contact, he also quickly recognized the other person's identity.
After all, strong people at the same level still have some understanding of each other.
Li Anxuan did not rush to take action, but instead remained calm and unhurried.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, a faint smile appeared on the corners of his mouth, and then he spoke slowly:
"I have heard that in the past, there was an elder in charge of handling external affairs in the Yuhua Sect. He successfully cultivated the Yuhua Shengxian Sutra to the fifth level.
As a result, he was promoted to the position of Grand Elder as an exception. I think you must be the Grand Elder Gongsun Yao who was famous and powerful back then!"
After hearing this, the visitor neither made any denial nor paid any attention to Li Anxuan beside him. He just stood there quietly, waiting for Li Wenfu's response.
Li Wenfu understood what was going on and immediately bowed his hands, saying humbly:
"Elder Gongsun, the specific situation is like this..."
However, just as Li Wenfu had just finished briefly describing the incident,
He didn't even have the chance to defend Lu Chen or help him absolve himself of his guilt.
Gongsun Yao suddenly raised one hand and made a stop gesture. At the same time, he interrupted Li Wenfu and said in a deep voice:
"Okay, no need to say anything more, you should lead the others back to the sect immediately, and just leave this boy and the girl behind.
As for other matters, this elder naturally knows what is going on."
Although Gongsun Yao's tone of voice seemed quite calm, the majesty contained in it did not allow for any questioning or disobedience by others.
Moreover, while speaking, he pointed his finger at Lu Chen who was standing in the air not far away.
After hearing these words, Li Wenfu's face instantly showed a look of embarrassment.
You know, he is an elder with rich experience in the sect, and also Lu Chen's master.
As for keeping Yunxi, he actually didn't have much objection;
But if he were to leave Lu Chen here, that would absolutely not be feasible.
He was well aware of Lu Chen's importance in the sect, not only because of Lu Chen's extraordinary talent, but also because of the potential he had demonstrated and his astonishing growth rate.
If Lu Chen was left here like this, no one knew what Gongsun Yao would do to him, and this uncertainty made Li Wenfu feel inexplicably uneasy.
"Elder Gongsun," Li Wenfu spoke again, with a hint of pleading in his voice, "Lu Chen is my disciple.
He is also an outstanding talent of the sect, and his presence is crucial to the future development of the sect. Perhaps you can consider letting him go back with us."
As soon as Li Wenfu finished speaking, Elder Wang interrupted:
"Elder Gongsun, Elder Li is right. Lu Chen is not only a rare talent, but this incident is not entirely his fault.
Moreover, as a disciple of the sect, he should be protected by the sect, so please give him a chance and let him return to the sect with us?"
Li Aotian and four other fellow brothers and sisters stood quietly by, listening nervously to the conversation between the elders.
They had mixed feelings. Li Aotian opened his mouth several times as if he wanted to express some opinions, but in the end he chose to remain silent because of fear.
At this time, Yunxi heard the conversation between the two, and a very bitter smile appeared on her face, which was already as pale as paper.
That smile seemed like a helpless compromise with fate, which made people feel pity.
Lan Caiyi saw all of this. She bit her lip, hesitated for a long time, and finally mustered up the courage to say:
"Please think twice, Grand Elder. Aren't you afraid that outsiders will laugh at our Yuhua Sect by doing this?"
Although her voice was not loud, it was exceptionally clear in this quiet atmosphere………………
