Chapter 471: Does the Truth Matter? Sea Covering Scheme (Double-Length, Please Vote)
On a deserted island, the sun shone faintly, and a few tufts of yellowing vegetation swayed with the breeze.
The next moment, the waves seemed to grow stronger, surging and crashing heavily onto the beach.
Many spirit fish were washed ashore, wriggling wildly among the gravel.
At this moment, beside the coastal rocks, a large-headed sturgeon suddenly emerged from the waves. The next moment, a cultivator wearing a spirit-blocking robe bizarrely stepped out from its enormous mouth.
The sturgeon then plunged back into the sea and disappeared from sight.
The figure in the spirit-blocking robe removed his veil, revealing a delicate young face. He looked around and then breathed a long sigh of relief, before starting to set up arrays on the island.
Several array banners fell, concealing the desolation of the island completely.
The young man raised his hand, signaling safety.
Just then, a larger sturgeon surfaced, also opening its massive mouth, out of which stepped another figure in a spirit-blocking robe.
This figure uttered not a word, nor did he make any extraneous actions, but headed straight to the island.
Once on the island.
The young man finally spoke:
"Uncle Qianyu, has the Ancestor truly encountered a problem?"
His gaze was somewhat disbelieving, for in his mind, no one in the Celestial Cloud Islands could ever harm the Celestial Cloud Ancestor.
What's more, the Soul Talisman of Tian Yun True Master was perfectly preserved. While many things can deceive people, a Soul Talisman cannot.
"Foolish, there are many capable individuals in this world, do you think your brother Bai Xuan and brother Baili could have been in trouble and your Celestial Cloud Ancestor would stand idly by?" the spirit-blocking robe figure spoke angrily.
"I know your Celestial Cloud Ancestor best; he's vengeful and that couldn't possibly be him. It's just pitiful that our Yun Family, with no Golden Core, has its house taken over, and yet who can we reason with?"
"Even, it's possible the Ancestor was possessed," Yun Qianyu sighed heavily after saying this.
If so, it would be a disaster for the entire Yun Family, being able to possess a Golden Core indicates one's cultivation within the Golden Core realm is certainly not weak.
Upon hearing those words, the young figure also appeared fearful.
Although everyone had checked the Soul Talisman, upon reflection, there were indeed anomalies.
"Then why not tell the other clansmen and think of a solution together?" the young figure asked again.
"They are confused; each was extremely shrewd in daily life, yet at crucial moments, they all grew muddle-headed, claiming the Ancestor couldn't possibly have had an accident!" The spirit-blocking robe figure instantly got furious.
He naturally pointed out some details and hinted at some doubts, but there was no one who believed him, much less acted alongside him.
After he finished speaking, he took out two upper-grade Spirit Stones, handing one to the young figure, keeping one for himself.
Upper-grade Spirit Stones are typically used for recovering spiritual energy, considered extravagant since they are mostly used in special arrays, teleportation arrays, or spirit gathering arrays for breakthroughs.
Using them to recover spiritual energy is somewhat excessive.
But at this moment, he couldn't care less. He planned to escape to other sea domains, then transfer to the Celestial Horse Sea Domain, where he would definitely be safe. As for what happens to the Yun Family, he couldn't be bothered.
This time, he brought along substantial wealth, enough to cultivate to the late stage of the Purple Mansion. Afterwards, he thought it was enough to find some outer sea to lie low.
However, he was puzzled to see Yun Baiqiu standing still, not taking the upper-grade Spirit Stone he offered. Just as he was about to scold him,
he noticed Yun's eyes slowly widening, pupils dilating.
After a moment, Yun Qianyu saw, reflected in his pupils, the figure of the ancestor of the Yun Family.
His body became somewhat rigid as well.
He closed his eyes slightly, not putting up any resistance.
The Divine Sense didn't detect anything, but the other party just appeared there, only signifying a genuine Golden Core True Master.
His mouth was bitter.
He knew perhaps he was being used as a test subject by other Yun Family members in the Purple Mansion.
Some might not see through it, but everyone not seeing through it, that he couldn't believe.
They were all merely waiting for his news!
"Does knowing the truth matter?" the voice of Tian Yun True Master came from behind, accompanied by a flying sword.
The flying sword shone with a cold gleam, Yun Qianyu's head flew off.
The young Yun Baiqiu swallowed slightly, wanting to say something, but he could not utter a single word from start to finish.
He too was decapitated by a single sword stroke.
After collecting the two storage bracelets and recovering several Spirit Leeches, Tian Yun True Master vanished from the island.
The array remained intact, but soon, an unusual wave overturned the island.
The entire desolate little island was engulfed by the endless sea.
...
In the outer sea, the calm surface occasionally pierced by the calls of seagulls.
A blue Spirit Shuttle landed before a massive island.
A figure in a five-colored Daoist robe appeared on the island, yet in just a blink, he turned into nothingness.
This man was none other than Ye Jingcheng, wearing a robe refined for him by Chu Yanqing, the five-colored Daoist robe, which possessed stealth properties.
Combined with his family's Supreme Turtle Cyan Spirit Technique, the stealth effect was exceptional.
"There really is a Great Demon on this island!" Ye Jingcheng's Divine Sense swept across the center of the island, yet he did not take any action. Instead, he directly opened up a hole in a hill on the island's periphery.
Then he set up an array and settled in.
He wasn't sure if Ye Xuecang was testing or careless.
But the Great Demon who newly occupied Cangyin Island, he could not possibly slay it now.
