Chapter 1417 Hand over the Qinglian to protect Luofeng
Yun Xing looked at Zuo Fei with a hint of greed.
He licked his lips and said, "Hehe, my main purpose in destroying the Green Sect was indeed to destroy the Green Flame Mountain, but your Falling Phoenix Valley has many female cultivators."
"Moreover, Fairy Zuo Fei, you are quite beautiful, and you are only at the early stage of the Tribulation Transcending Realm. Following this sect master will not be a loss for you."
"Yunxing, you've gone too far."
"Haha, this is too much! I'll give you one day and three choices: either you become my Daoist partner, or you hand over your precious disciple Li Qinglian, or you destroy the Qingmen Sect and use Luofeng Valley to prove your Dao."
Zuo Fei's heart skipped a beat after hearing this. It seemed that Yun Xing was determined to fight to the death today.
However, there was one thing she was very curious about: what did she need Li Qinglian for? She was just a minor cultivator in the Foundation Establishment stage.
"Hahaha, I never thought that a powerful cultivator in the mid-stage of the Tribulation Transcending Realm would have to make things difficult for a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator. Everyone in Falling Phoenix Valley is ashamed of you."
Yun Xing seemed completely unconcerned by Zuo Fei's sarcasm.
"Hehe, Li Qinglian was just an afterthought. Someone took a fancy to her, so it was just a side thing."
"Hmph, Yun Xing, my Falling Phoenix Valley has a protective formation. If you're so capable, come in first and we'll talk later."
,
After saying that, Consort Zuo disappeared from the spot and returned to her study.
After listening, Yun Xing looked at the protective formation and shook his head with some disdain.
Then he turned to his disciples: "Everyone, attack the formation with all your might! It's full of beautiful female cultivators inside, hahaha..."
Upon hearing Yun Xing's words, the demonic cultivators became incredibly energetic, unleashing their full power to attack the protective formation of Falling Phoenix Valley.
After returning to the main hall, Consort Zuo frowned as she looked at the swaying array.
"Gentlemen, my Fallen Phoenix Valley is now in grave danger. Do you have any good ideas?"
As soon as Zuo Fei finished speaking, a commotion broke out below.
"Elder, let's break out. As long as you can hold off their mid-stage Tribulation Transcending expert, we still have a chance to fight."
"Senior brother, we must not act rashly. I think the most important thing for us right now is to ask Qingyan Mountain for help. The destruction of Qingmen was originally aimed at Qingyan Mountain, so they have an obligation to help."
"The distress call has been sent out, but we don't know if it has been intercepted. If it has been intercepted, our situation will only worsen as we wait for rescue."
Zuo Fei was completely exasperated by the commotion below.
What did you say? I'll hold off someone in the mid-stage of the Tribulation Transcending Realm. Why don't you go and try to find someone a minor realm stronger than you?
Ask for help? Since they've already surrounded you, why would they give you the chance to ask for help?
They're all a bunch of good-for-nothings. They're great at fighting over girls all the time, but when it really matters, they just screw up.
While everyone was arguing fiercely.
Suddenly, a woman stood up: "Elder, there is something I want to say, but I don't know if I should."
"Say something quickly."
"Just now outside, Senior Yun also said that their goal is not to destroy our Falling Phoenix Valley."
"Isn't there still room for negotiation?"
Upon hearing this, Zuo Fei frowned, and her heart skipped a beat. Was this woman up to something?
At this critical juncture, she showed a willingness to make peace. Could it be that Yunxing had already bribed her?
"Okay, don't say any more."
"Elder, Senior Yun said that as long as you hand over your precious disciple, he will temporarily refrain from attacking you."
"As everyone knows, Li Qinglian has been a disciple for a long time, but her strength is still only at the Foundation Establishment stage. Such a person cannot be considered a prodigy."
"Moreover, Senior Yun and the others' goal is her. Sacrificing a Foundation Establishment cultivator like her to protect Falling Phoenix Valley is worthwhile."
Consort Zuo was surprised that this person suddenly disobeyed her and directly revealed Li Qinglian's affair in front of everyone.
This makes things more difficult.
Indeed, she wanted to protect Li Qinglian.
Yun Xing specifically requested Li Qinglian, which must have been for a reason. Moreover, Consort Zuo could also guess that Li Qinglian was Chu Chen's wife.
Therefore, they definitely want Li Qinglian to deal with Chu Chen.
After all, this kid is just too strange.
But now that this woman has said it in public, it's impossible to please everyone, so protecting Li Qinglian might not be so easy.
As expected, after the woman started talking, a flurry of discussion immediately arose below.
"Yes, what right does she, a Foundation Establishment cultivator, have to drag our entire Falling Phoenix Valley to our deaths?"
"I don't want to be harmed by her, to be toyed with by those demonic cultivators... It's disgusting. I am a pure and noble immortal."
"The elder is too biased."
"Alas, what can we do? We are just ordinary disciples, not as good as the personal disciples of the high and mighty elders."
Hearing the murmurs below, Consort Zuo immediately sensed something was wrong.
Then he shouted sternly to those below, "Silence! With a formidable enemy at hand, anyone who attempts to sow discord will be killed and expelled from Falling Phoenix Valley."
"Our Fallen Phoenix Valley will never sacrifice any of our disciples to gain temporary peace."
"Do you think they will stop attacking if we hand over a disciple?"
The discussion below paused briefly at Zuo Fei's stern shout.
But they only paused briefly before starting to whisper among themselves again.
Zuo Fei suddenly felt a headache coming on. Although she could suppress it for a while, the attacks outside were getting more and more intense, and she was afraid she couldn't keep it up for long.
It would be troublesome if these people stirred up internal strife.
You can't just kill all those who harbor resentment; otherwise, what difference would there be between you and a demonic cultivator?
"Quiet down, everyone. What is your intention, leaders?"
Left with no other option, Consort Zuo simply passed the buck, thinking that with her authority, those in charge below would consider the bigger picture.
If all else fails, then we'll have no choice but to hand Li Qinglian over.
After hearing this, the people sitting in the chairs all lowered their heads and remained silent. It was obvious that none of them wanted to offend him, nor did they want to face the attack from the demonic cultivators outside.
The situation suddenly became a dilemma.
At that moment, Li Qinglian was in the next room, and she heard everything clearly outside.
She stood up and let out a long sigh of relief.
For someone who has lived for hundreds of years and has lived in modern society for so long, this situation was already expected.
She was very grateful for Consort Zuo's consideration in protecting her.
It was also clear that the demonic cultivators specifically wanted him by name, so it must be related to Chu Chen.
Therefore, she was in a dilemma at this moment, torn between her husband and the many disciples of Luofeng Valley.
No matter what choice you make, a satisfactory outcome is unlikely.
After a moment's thought, she walked slowly and calmly outside.
Every step was difficult. She knew that once she appeared in everyone's sight, being handed over would already be a fact.
"My lord, Qinglian is in a very difficult situation!"
