CHAPTER 283: 281. JUST WANT TO TAKE HUA XIAOZHU AWAY (3/4)

However, the fact that this sword didn’t kill a single Profound Realm cultivator seemed truly unbelievable to Wen Ping.

Currently, he was at the Middle Profound Realm, and using Sword Control Skill to kill someone of the same realm was definitely no problem for him. Coupled with his Fire Spirit Body, he was confident in killing an Upper Profound Realm cultivator.

Yet, against this Profound Realm in the sea, he couldn’t achieve a one-hit kill.

Fortunately, he was a Guardian and wouldn’t flee just because he was injured. He would continue attacking, and once he did so, injured as he was, fighting in the sea would make no difference from standing in front of Wen Ping.

Blood left him nowhere to hide!

Just as Wen Ping was waiting for the Guardian to attack once more, Hua Zixun ascended the mountain.

Seeing the empty Immortal Sect Master Hall, Hua Zixun’s impression of the Immortal Sect changed once again.

Lately, in East Lake, the Immortal Sect was quite the talk of the town, stirring up quite a commotion.

The disciple with the Double Innate Purity Body even caught the attention of the Three-star Influence behind him, tempting them with the idea of poaching. However, they only entertained the thought but didn’t act. Given the current situation of the Immortal Sect, isolated by East Lake and dragging Cangwu City down along with it, no one wanted to step into this muddy water.

Today, he was determined to take away Hua Xiaozhu.

Huan Cheng said beside him, "Senior, I’ll help you find Sect Leader Wen."

"I’ll go too!"

As Hua Zixun was about to step forward and follow Huan Cheng, he saw the Mountain Dog Ha Ha not far away and quickly stopped Hua Zixun.

"Senior, outsiders can’t wander around the Immortal Sect." If Hua Zixun hadn’t said his daughter was in the Immortal Sect, he wouldn’t have wanted to bring Hua Zixun here.

It was the kind of task that was thankless.

If he let Hua Zixun wander, he, as an uncle, probably wouldn’t need to return to the Immortal Sect again in the future.

After stopping Hua Zixun outside, Huan Cheng headed toward the dormitory area.

But instead of finding Wen Ping, he encountered Elder Yu Mo, "Elder Yu, sorry to bother you, a Middle Profound Realm cultivator claiming to be Hua Xiaozhu’s father is looking for Sect Leader Wen. By coincidence, I also have matters to discuss with Sect Leader Wen, so I took the liberty of bringing him up here. Could you please inform him?"

Yu Mo didn’t say much, knowing that he and Wen Ping had an unusual relationship. After pondering where the Sect Leader might be, Yu Mo replied, "The Sect Leader should be cultivating, and I’m reluctant to disturb him... However, since it’s Hua Xiaozhu’s father, I’ll go meet him. I do recognize a couple of the Hua Family."

With that, Yu Mo headed toward the Main Hall.

Huan Cheng followed closely behind.

As they approached, Yu Mo looked at Hua Zixun, and Hua Zixun looked back at him.

Yu Mo smiled faintly, while Hua Zixun wore a stern face.

"Yu Mo, what are you doing here?"

"I am now an Elder of the Immortal Sect."

"It’s quite surprising; the Wandering Sword Yu Mo has joined a Sect."

"It’s time to settle when it’s time. By the way, is Hua Xiaozhu really your daughter?"

"Indeed, who else could she be? Have your Sect Leader come out; I have something to tell him. Hua Xiaozhu cannot cultivate in the Immortal Sect; I must take her away."

Upon hearing this, any trace of a smile vanished from Yu Mo’s face, and his expression grew particularly solemn as he looked at Hua Zixun.

"Brother Hua, whether Hua Xiaozhu is your daughter or not, please show respect to our Sect Leader while in the Immortal Sect, or don’t blame me for being impolite."

Bang!

Yu Mo immediately opened the Meridian Gate.

His Middle Profound Realm cultivation was revealed.

Hua Zixun was unperturbed and continued, "Middle Profound Realm... no wonder the temper is so large. I’m just here to take my daughter; my daughter inexplicably abandoned joining a Three-star Sect to join your Immortal Sect. I disagree, so I’m taking her away! Even if heaven were to collapse, I’d still be reasonable."

With that, Hua Zixun seemed to curse Luo Qianye one hundred and eighty times.

If it wasn’t for Luo Qianye’s foolishness, how would this issue arise?

Then, they heard Yu Mo speak, "Brother Hua, ordinarily, I wouldn’t interfere with your daughter’s choices. Where you want her to go is your freedom, but today the Sect Leader is cultivating, and I can’t make decisions on his behalf. So, either wait here, or leave now. If you continue to speak so freely in the Immortal Sect, as a friend, I’ll have to act."

As an Elder, he couldn’t tolerate a Middle Profound Realm cultivator demanding, "Have your Sect Leader come out."

Did they honestly think this was the Hua Family?

Last time, even a Divine Profound Realm cultivator shouted and perished here.

Certainly, Hua Zixun was really asking for it to continue living?

"You!"

Upon hearing Yu Mo’s words, Hua Zixun’s expression instantly froze.

His stubbornness flared up too.

"What if I choose to rush in?"

Yu Mo hadn’t yet responded, but the nearby Mountain Dog bared its teeth and barked fiercely.

It was ready to use him as a meal if he dared intrude.

But unaware of this, Hua Zixun continued, "Brother Yu, don’t block me, I don’t want conflict over such matters... I’m just here to take my daughter away."

Seeing the Mountain Dog about to act, Yu Mo secretly chided himself.

With the Sect Leader absent, if Ha Ha was intent on killing Hua Zixun, no one could stop it.

If this dog truly killed Hua Xiaozhu’s father, the situation would spiral out of control.

Yu Mo quickly responded, "I’ll find Hua Xiaozhu for you; wait here."

Soon, Yu Mo brought Hua Xiaozhu to the Main Hall.

Upon seeing her father, Hua Xiaozhu was overjoyed and quickly stepped forward, clinging to Hua Zixun’s arm.

"Father, why are you here?"

She had thought of sending a letter to her father in a few days, but before she could, he had come for her.

She couldn’t deny being happy.

Hua Zixun, seeing his children, was also pleased.

He immediately said, "The entry test for the Mitian Sect is about to begin. Your mother and I have arranged it all for you, granting entry to the Inner Sect and ensuring abundant resources."

Hua Xiaozhu hesitated for a moment but bit her lip and spoke up.

"Father, I’m not going."

With that, Hua Xiaozhu lowered her head.

Upon hearing that his daughter was defying his wishes, Hua Zixun immediately roared in anger, "What do you mean you’re not going! Do you know the current state of the Immortal Sect... The whole East Lake is isolating it; they’re almost unable to afford meals. And the order from the Hundred Sects Alliance, no one dares defy... What are you staying here for?"

...

In the Immortal Sect, the father and daughter continued to argue.

Meanwhile, Wen Ping had already killed the Guardian once, and now held a fragment in his hand.

It looked like the tip of the Long Yue Sword!

As the system’s voice echoed in his ear, Wen Ping lost the mood to continue and immediately halted his cultivation, heading straight to the Main Hall.

At the same time, as the commotion grew louder, many who were resting and playing in the dormitory area gathered over.

Upon Wen Ping’s arrival, he saw Hua Zixun dragging Hua Xiaozhu down the Thousand Layers Steps, while no amount of persuasion from Luo Mi was effective.

Wen Ping immediately spoke in a cold voice.

"Clan Leader Hua, you have the spare time to come to my Immortal Sect to snatch a disciple?"

Hua Zixun’s action of pulling Hua Xiaozhu abruptly stopped, and when he turned around and recognized Wen Ping, he immediately realized who it was.

Young, always speaking with such calmness—that was one of the most notable aspects of Wen Ping he knew.

But before Hua Zixun could speak, Wen Ping spoke again, "Luo Mi, take Hua Xiaozhu back... And all of you, return to your places; do you all enjoy watching a good show so much?"
