Chapter 1219 1211: Welcoming the Blood Evil Sect
Wind Ridge Town, Lord's Mansion.
A crescent moon shone down on the brightly lit Lord's Mansion.
The banquet lasted until the hour of Hai, with guests enjoying themselves, and several families gradually taking their leave.
These families were well aware of the enmity between Qin Yang and the Blood Fiend Sect, and were quite familiar with the Blood Fiend Sect's ways, so none of them chose to stay overnight.
Qin Yang understood this and saw them off from the mansion.
However, the Bai family's top members, including Bai Qingtian, Bai Qingyuan the old patriarch, and Grand Elder Bai Zhixun, chose not to leave.
In addition, the young Commandery Princess Xia Yu'Er and Elder Sun Cheng also decided to spend the night at the Lord's Mansion, likely wanting to witness the conflict between him and the Blood Fiend Sect. Qin Yang did not say much.
Apart from the Bai Family and the Marquis's Mansion, several other families closely allied with the Bai Family also stayed behind.
The night deepened.
It was already midnight.
Seven figures stood in the courtyard of the Lord's Mansion.
They were Qin Yang, Nangong Feiyang, Zilan, Nangong Huozhu, Bi Luoyue, Leng Feng, and Mu Shuiyuan.
"Let's go. We'll set up some preparations to welcome the Blood Fiend Sect,"
Under the night sky, Qin Yang, dressed in white, stood with his hands behind his back, gazing towards the northwest, a faint cold smile playing at the corner of his mouth, he said.
"Yes, Sect Leader."
Nangong Feiyang and the others responded in unison.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
As the words fell, seven figures transformed into streams of light under the night sky, heading straight to the area outside the Northern Gate of Wind Ridge Town.
The moon was bright, stars sparse, and the night was silent.
Wind Ridge Town, outside the Northern Gate.
Array flags flickered with various colors, fluttering in the night. Between the array flags, threads of spiritual power connected everything together.
The night slowly faded.
The morning sunlight poured down, illuminating Wind Ridge Town.
By now, the city walls of the Northern Gate of Wind Ridge Town were filled with numerous cultivators.
All of these cultivators' eyes were uniformly focused on the seven figures sitting cross-legged in the air ahead.
Among the seven figures, a slender figure dressed in white sat cross-legged at the forefront.
The six other young figures sat floating in the air behind him.
The sunlight fell upon the seven figures, their eyes closed, surrounded by a faint spiritual light, as if waiting for something.
"It's the Lord and his entourage, but what are they doing?"
"Do we even need to ask? They're certainly waiting for the Blood Fiend Sect. The Lord has quite a grudge against them. That Yuan Ming was rumored to be considered to become a direct disciple by the Supreme Elder of the Blood Fiend Sect, but was ruined by the Lord."
"Besides, the Lord also drove away Elder Xue Yue."
"Now that the Lord has appeared, based on the Blood Fiend Sect's methods, they should certainly be coming today."
"That's why the Lord is here waiting in advance."
"No wonder. I saw them setting up an array here last night, but didn't see much longer before the Lord used a blinding technique to obscure everything within dozens of miles, leaving nothing visible."
"..."
On the city wall, conversations among the cultivators filled the air.
Last night's visit by the various families from Celestial Cyan City was enough to spark discussion and shock among Wind Ridge Town's cultivators, making Qin Yang the center of attention and curiosity.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
As thousands of cultivators discussed on the city wall, more than ten streams of light arose from the Lord's Mansion, landing directly in the sky above Wind Ridge Town.
All these people wore white robes, emblazoned with a unified family crest—the Snow Lion Beast.
"Look, it's the Bai Family. They didn't leave, so it seems they're going to stand on the Lord's side."
"I've heard the Bai Family became the top family in Celestial Cyan City, taking down the Yuan Family, thanks in no small part to the Lord."
"Yes, it seems the two have really strong ties; otherwise, the Bai Family in the past would never dare to offend the Blood Fiend Sect."
"The Blood Fiend Sect is notoriously fierce. Normally, who would dare provoke them? They've even harbored fugitives wanted in the Royal Capital."
"..."
Seeing the Bai Family's high-ranking members appear, the conversation among the cultivators shifted toward the Bai Family.
However, at this moment, the Bai Family's top members paid no attention to the discussion.
All of Bai Qingtian, Bai Qingyuan, and others directed their gazes toward the seven figures sitting cross-legged in the air.
"It seems young friend Qin Yang is well-prepared."
Bai Qingtian's gaze slightly narrowed as he spoke.
"Indeed, young friend Qin Yang is no ordinary person. His daring to appear here shows he has some confidence in dealing with the Blood Fiend Sect."
Beside Bai Qingtian, Grand Elder Bai Zhixun nodded in agreement.
"Well, regardless, since the Bai Family has chosen to side with young friend Qin Yang, we must exert our full strength when the time comes. The Blood Fiend Sect may be powerful, but within the Immortal Cultivation Realm, even the mightiest sects have their decline."
The Bai family's patriarch, Bai Qingyuan, swept his gaze over Bai Qingtian and the others, his voice carrying a certain firmness.
"Yes, Patriarch."
Upon hearing Bai Qingyuan's words, the Bai family members collectively nodded, then turned their attention to the figures sitting cross-legged in mid-air.
For some reason, looking at that calm white figure at the forefront, an inexplicable sense of ease filled their hearts. Even facing the formidable members of the Blood Fiend Sect soon to arrive, a belief in victory rose within them.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Just as thousands of cultivators on the city wall directed their gazes toward the figures in the air, two more silhouettes descended into view.
One of them wore a blue shirt and white pants, with a black ponytail bouncing in the morning sunlight, exuding freshness and vitality.
"Elder Sun, are they preparing to deal with the Blood Fiend Sect already?"
Summer Yu'Er's eyes blinked, her beautiful eyes bearing a hint of surprise.
"Yes, it seems so. Based on the Blood Fiend Sect's methods, they'll certainly send people today. Otherwise, their warrant would become a laughingstock."
Elder Sun Cheng's gaze also slightly narrowed as he nodded.
"Aren't they being a bit overconfident? Just seven of them, even with the Bai Family, they might not be a match for the Blood Fiend Sect."
Summer Yu'Er's lips slightly pouted, her eyes blinking as she spoke.
"Commandery Princess, you mustn't underestimate him. Back then, when he had just advanced to the Immortal Venerable Realm, he slew the Water and Fire Dual Venerable and drove away Elder Xue Yue of the Blood Fiend Sect."
Elder Sun Cheng shook his head gently, speaking with a smile.
"Since he drove away Elder Xue Yue, the ones coming this time must be the highest-ranking members of the Blood Fiend Sect. If Grand Elder Xue Yan were to come..."
Summer Yu'Er's beautiful eyes glimmered as she spoke.
"This..."
Upon hearing this, Elder Sun Cheng hesitated. Xue Yan's reputation was intimidating, his methods ruthless, with more than twice ten Immortal Venerable Realm cultivators slain by his hand.
As Elder Sun Cheng hesitated, his gaze suddenly lifted to the distant sky.
There, a large group of figures surrounded by a blood-colored spiritual power burst forth, resembling a blood-red cloud, quickly approaching Wind Ridge Town.
"The Blood Fiend Sect has arrived!"
Elder Sun Cheng's gaze narrowed, and his expression turned solemn.
