Chapter 165: The Calm Mortal World
After this series of events, even the densest idiot would know that something had gone wrong.
The forces of the Heavenly Mortal World came to investigate the situation.
Countless cultivators who were closer rose into the sky.
Most of the cultivators were not strong enough to break through the clouds.
A few of them were blocked by the World Barrier.
However, they could see what was happening from behind the hazy barrier.
Yu Tianxing was facing thousands of soldiers and horses alone.
Some smart forces had already started to send out inquiries to the forces of the Hidden Edge Sect and the Emperor Artifact Formation.
Sect Master Ding was preparing to go into seclusion, while the others were busy with their own matters.
Abbot Qing Cang received this batch of inquiries from the flying swords.
Without hesitation, he directly asked a boy to Reclining Firewood Peak to find out what was going on.
Very soon, Ye Changge informed Qing Cang of the basic situation, which was then known by all the forces in the world.
The sacred lands were shocked.
They did not expect that the forces in the outer realms had already attacked again.
It was too soon. They recalled everyone’s inspection when Ye Changge had set up the World Barrier.
Countless powers had sent out requests, hoping that the Heavenly Tower of Legacy could once again determine the situation in the sky.
The new tower lord of the Heavenly Tower of Legacy had always hoped to improve his relationship with the Hidden Edge Emperor.
Now, he learned that the powers from the outer realms had once again invaded and were blocked by the World Barrier.
No matter what the outcome was, at least the strength of the World Barrier would be displayed.
If that was the case, the Hidden Edge Emperor’s merit would once again be displayed.
After some thought, the lord of the Heavenly Tower of Legacy activated the Heavenly Timepiece of Legacy.
He then contacted the Wan Xiang Sect and other factions to explain his plan.
Soon, water screens appeared above the various cities.
“What’s going on? Why did the water screen that was taken away appear again?”
“Could it be that something big is about to happen for us to see?”
“The major powers shouldn’t dare to go against the Emperor now, right? Then what’s their purpose for doing this?”
Countless people started asking questions.
Although it was nighttime, but they were still quite happy.
After all, they did not have any form of entertainment in the past.
There was a way to see what was happening in the world, and these mortals felt a sense of participation.
The cultivators who could not reach the clouds and see what was happening in the sky realized that empty water screens had all gathered.
In an instant, the entire Heavenly Mortal World was once again as grand as before.
Billions of people were watching the battle outside the barrier of the Heavenly Mortal World.
“What forces are those people from? They all look fierce and powerful.”
“Why is there only one person on our side? Can one person handle so many enemies?”
“This female cultivator is so beautiful. As expected, powerful female cultivators are so beautiful.”
“Brother, can’t you think about something else when the Mortal World is in danger?”
“But this female cultivator is really beautiful. Don’t you think so?”
In the midst of the discussion in Floating Elegance City, someone successfully changed the topic.
“I also think she is very beautiful. Not only is she beautiful, but she is also extremely bewitching.”
Someone suddenly interrupted. Everyone took a look and saw that it was a young guy who looked like he was only twelve or thirteen years old.
“Go away. You are so young. How would you know if she is beautiful or not?”
Someone laughed mockingly.
“Hmph! Of course I know. Moreover, that female cultivator in the air is my younger sister!”
The young guy’s words caused everyone to be stunned, and then they burst into laughter.
“Don’t spout nonsense. A cultivator with that kind of strength would at least be close to a thousand years old. She’s more like an ancestor.”
Everyone laughed mockingly.
There were also people with kind hearts who knew that many things could not be said carelessly, so they warned the young man.
“That’s right, that’s right. Little one, be careful. If your fellow disciples hear you, you’ll suffer.”
The boy who had been taught a lesson seemed to be very unhappy and still wanted to argue. Unfortunately, everyone’s attention was gradually drawn away by the situation in the air.
Although no one believed the truth that Yu Xiuzhu said in Floating Elegance City, many people from the Hidden Edge Sect still recognized it.
“Do you think the female cultivator in the air is our Hidden Edge Sect’s younger sister Yu Tianxing?”
“Sister Yu? How come I didn’t know our sect had someone like her?”
“That’s impossible. Judging by her strength, even the sect leader is far inferior to her. How could she be our junior?”
The Hidden Edge disciples discussed animatedly.
“I think I saw her when I went to the Reclining Firewood Peak to deliver supplies. She was with Senior Li. But I remember that she looked much younger than now.”
A female disciple recognized her and retorted.
“Now that you say it, I think it’s very possible. After all, she is from Reclining Firewood Peak.”
“Then whose disciple is she? And you call her younger sister. Is she really very young?”
“Of course. I saw her with my own eyes. Her master is the chief of the Reclining Firewood Peak, Ye Changge.”
“Well, although the sect master and the others didn’t say it, many people from various factions now say that the Hidden Edge Emperor is Brother Ye Changge.”
“Brother? More like uncle!”
“Oh! I forgot. He’s too young and handsome. I always remember wrongly.”
The female disciple who had been taught a lesson stuck out her tongue.
“Regardless of whether it is true or not, only the sect leader and the others know the truth. Let’s pretend that we don’t know.”
An older and stronger disciple came to a conclusion.
No one refuted him.
Thus, this became a fact that everyone in the Hidden Edge Sect understood.
“Then, Sister Yu Tianxing is fighting those enemies alone. Does she have any chance of winning?”
“I don’t know either. We have to think of a way to support her.”
“Don’t think about it. Do you think Uncle Ye Changge doesn’t know? He must be watching. Maybe this is a trial to him.”
“Tsk tsk tsk. If only I could fight such a powerful opponent as a trial one day.”
Unlike what the other factions in the sky had thought, the people of the Heavenly Mortal World were not nervous.
Jiayu and the others thought that the people below would tremble when they sensed what was happening.
In fact, the vast majority of people treated this as entertainment to pass the time.
As for the reason, it was because Ye Changge’s series of actions had already made the people of the Heavenly Mortal World knowledgeable.
Ye Changge was at a loss whether to laugh or cry when he heard the discussion of the Hidden Edge disciples on Reclining Firewood Peak.
He felt that these disciples were really a little funny.
He also did not deliberately hide his identity and strength.
Now that he could suppress the entire world, he no longer needed to care about the existence of hidden beings in the Heavenly Mortal World.
It was just that after his breakthrough, he didn’t go out of his way to show off and publicize it.
However, it made the disciples of his own sect misunderstand. They thought that it was not very good for him to keep quiet about it.
Thinking of this, Ye Changge decided to let Sect Master Ding slowly convey this news to the sect after a period of time.
