Chapter 80
You Can Also Consider Me His Mother~
Nanli City, within the Headmaster’s Office of Nanli Academy
A mature and composed middle-aged man sat at his desk, his fingers interlaced, his expression solemn.
He was Xia Guo, the Headmaster of Nanli Academy in Nanli City.
Standing before Xia Guo was a beautiful woman.
Her expression was equally serious as she reported the urgent situation unfolding within Nanli City.
“Headmaster, the Sacred Lotus Sect Leader, Song Yan, has personally arrived in Nanli City, accompanied by two Holy Envoys and hundreds of Sacred Lotus Sect disciples!”
“Each one of them is an elite disciple of the Sacred Lotus Sect!”
“According to reports, Sacred Lotus Sect Leader Song Yan has left the Jiang family residence, and the Sacred Lotus Sect disciples in the city have also begun to make their moves!”
“It’s likely that the Jiang family is planning to use the Sacred Lotus Sect to attack the Qi family and that woman named Luo Ruying!”
Upon hearing this, Xia Guo frowned deeply, his expression troubled.
What was bound to happen had finally come…
When he heard that the Qi family had unexpectedly won against the Jiang family in the Contest of Commerce competition, he was both happy and worried.
Happy because the Jiang family had lost control of most of the businesses in Nanli City and could no longer monopolize various resources and act recklessly as they had before.
Worried because the Jiang family had the backing of the Sacred Lotus Sect. Once they informed the Sect, the Qi family and the woman who represented them in the competition would be in danger!
Recently, the Qi family had launched the Immortal Refining Pill, completely shattering the Jiang family’s foundation and pushing them to the edge.
He knew it wouldn’t be long before the Jiang family would call upon the Sacred Lotus Sect to intervene.
But he didn’t expect it to happen so soon…
And right during the New Year festival…
This was the situation he least wanted to see.
Tonight was likely to be a bloodbath…!
The Sacred Lotus Sect would definitely not let the Qi family and that family off…
Nanli Academy had the responsibility of maintaining peace and order in the city. As the Headmaster of Nanli Academy, how could he stand idly by and watch the Qi family and that family be massacred?!
However, he was definitely no match for Song Yan. If he chose to intervene, it would also put Nanli Academy in jeopardy.
But he couldn’t bring himself to turn a blind eye!
Nanli Academy was established in Nanli City not only to cultivate outstanding cultivators but also to protect the city.
Allowing the Sacred Lotus Sect to run rampant in Nanli City would render the existence of Nanli Academy meaningless!
“Lin Ya, immediately gather all the experts in the academy!”
“Have them go protect the Qi family and that family!”
“I will personally go and negotiate with Song Yan.”
Xia Guo pondered for a moment, then instructed Lin Ya, who stood before him.
If Han Guangzhi of the Treasure Merchant Alliance was still in the city, he could join forces with him to deal with Song Yan.
But the Jiang family had clearly seized the opportunity to strike while Han Guangzhi was away from Nanli City.
He alone couldn’t contend with Song Yan, so he could only try his best to negotiate with her.
Otherwise, if he and Song Yan truly clashed in Nanli City, it would inevitably affect the residents and common people.
“Yes! I’ll gather everyone right away!”
“Headmaster, please be careful!”
“I heard that the Sacred Lotus Sect Leader is already at the peak of the Heavenly God Realm!”
Lin Ya nodded, gave Xia Guo a word of caution, and immediately set about arranging personnel.
Any further delay, and the Qi family and that family would be in grave danger!
……
In the night sky above Nanli City
Song Yan personally led a group of Sacred Lotus Sect disciples, swiftly flying towards the location reported for Luo Ruying.
However, a breathtakingly beautiful and cold figure was already standing in the night sky, silently waiting for them.
Yue Qingyou’s icy, profound eyes gazed calmly at Song Yan and her group.
Song Yan immediately stopped, her brows furrowed as she stared at Yue Qingyou.
She couldn’t see through this woman!
Is she from Nanli Academy…?
Before the operation began, Song Yan had predicted that the biggest obstacle this time might be Nanli Academy.
The Headmaster of Nanli Academy, Xia Guo, also possessed Heavenly God Realm cultivation and was indeed not to be underestimated.
But she had never heard of this woman being part of Nanli Academy…
“Who are you?”
Song Yan asked Yue Qingyou coldly.
“Are you the mastermind behind them?”
“Are those people in the city yours?”
Yue Qingyou ignored Song Yan’s questions and instead asked coldly, “Are you the one in charge?”
“Are those people in the city your disciples?”
Song Yan sneered and admitted bluntly, “Yes!”
“I am the Sect Leader of the Sacred Lotus Sect, and those people in the city are all my disciples.”
“Is that so…”
A cold glint flashed in Yue Qingyou’s icy eyes. She raised her slender finger and said softly, “Explode.”
“Hmm…?”
Song Yan looked puzzled, not understanding what Yue Qingyou was up to.
However, in the next second, strange sounds came from the disciples behind her.
Song Yan turned her head in confusion, her expression instantly turning to shock.
The disciples following her suddenly swelled up, their bodies expanding like balloons, becoming round and enormous!
Each disciple’s expression was contorted in pain. They desperately reached out to Song Yan, pleading, “Sect… Sect Leader… save… save me…”
As soon as they finished speaking, the dozens of disciples behind her exploded like balloons!
Blood and body fragments bloomed in the night sky like fireworks!
Eh…? (⊙?⊙)!!
Song Yan froze in place, her face filled with horror. She stared at Yue Qingyou in disbelief.
This time, her gaze held none of the arrogance from before, only fear!
“You, what did you do to my disciples?!”
Song Yan pointed at Yue Qingyou and questioned hysterically.
She hadn’t seen Yue Qingyou make any spellcasting gestures, nor had she sensed any fluctuations of spiritual energy from her.
With just a single word, she had caused all her most elite disciples to explode and die!
She had cultivated for over three hundred years and had never witnessed such a technique!
At this moment, Meng Niu and the other two had just arrived behind Yue Qingyou, witnessing the scene of blood and flesh splattering everywhere. Their faces instantly turned pale.
Even though they often fought in the Demonic Beast Forest, they had never seen such a bloody and explosive scene…
Yue Qingyou slowly walked towards Song Yan, stepping through the air.
Although her steps and posture were graceful and elegant, and there was no trace of spiritual energy around her, Song Yan felt an unprecedented and immense pressure in her heart.
“Don’t underestimate me!”
“I am the Sect Leader of the Sacred Lotus Sect!”
Song Yan transformed her fear into anger, her hands forming incantations.
But Yue Qingyou simply said calmly, “Twist.”
In the next moment, Song Yan’s arms started to twist and contort in an irregular manner, the sound of bones breaking echoing crisply!
Her hand bones were even exposed!
Meng Niu and the others, standing to the side, couldn’t help but frown, feeling pain all over their bodies just by watching…
“Ahhhhhhh!”
The intense pain contorted Song Yan’s face completely, leaving only endless fear! Tears streamed uncontrollably from her eyes as she desperately questioned Yue Qingyou, “Who… who are you?!”
Yue Qingyou approached Song Yan and finally answered her question.
“I am merely a servant of that supreme and revered Lord.”
“Of course, you can also consider me his mother~”
