Chapter 687 - 375: White Jade Longevity
Chapter 687: Chapter 375: White Jade Longevity
This sudden change was extremely abrupt, yet the disciples of the Yao Tai Sect were instantly invigorated.
"It’s the Sect Leader!"
"The Sect Leader has emerged from seclusion!!"
"This time, after emerging from seclusion, the [White Jade Scripture of Eternal Life] must have reached Great Success! We’re saved!"
Their hearts were lifted, with thoughts racing through their minds.
Meanwhile, the fat man slightly raised his eyes, only to find that this seemingly effortless palm strike resembled an antelope hanging from its horns, leaving no trace to follow.
If one wishes to break the technique, one must first understand its secrets.
Yet the technique couldn’t even be comprehended, let alone broken?
He couldn’t help but sigh softly:
"What a move, [Immortal’s Touch]!"
As he spoke, he unexpectedly leaned his head forward, actually sending himself under the hand.
Receiving a gentle stroke on the head by the palm.
It seemed inconsequential, but in reality, it was like a thunderous force.
In an instant, the fat man’s eyes turned bloodshot, filled with crimson streaks, and his head was momentarily compressed into his chest cavity.
But just at this moment, everyone was astonished to discover that the ability to press this man’s head into his chest cavity wasn’t solely due to Ji Yexue’s Palm Force.
More importantly, at the instant the fat man received the palm on his head, his figure inflated like a balloon filled with air!
His entire body swelled up.
To the extent that as soon as his head was compressed into his chest, it popped back out, the massive force rippling through the fat man’s body. He seemed like a ball; instead of flying straight backward, he rebounded skyward, drawing a ’circle’ in mid-air before gracefully landing on the ground with trailing arcs.
Shaking his head and rubbing his neck heavily, the fat man said with a smile:
"Luckily, my [Universal Qi] isn’t to be trifled with either."
This made Ji Yexue’s face, who initially thought she had succeeded with one palm, become incredibly grim... After delivering this palm strike, she had already returned to the front of the Yao Tai Sect disciples, revealing her true appearance.
She looked extremely young, standing there like a girl around twenty years old.
Clad in ethereal white garments like an immortal, adorned with cloud patterns, her skin was as fair as snow, her face beautiful yet somehow shrouded in frost.
Her eyes were deep, containing a sense of agelessness.
From her gaze, it was apparent that she was far from the youth her appearance suggested.
Her skin was flawless, but her features might not be the most striking; yet combined with her aura, she resembled a celestial being, making others feel that gazing upon her for long would be sacrilege.
Yet the skinny man watched with relish:
"What a charming mature woman."
He remained silent, but once he spoke, he incited public fury.
The disciples of the Yao Tai Sect were indignant:
"How dare you speak such foul words, who do you think you are?"
"Daring to speak to the Sect Leader in such a manner, we will not let this rest!"
"Even if it costs us our lives today, we must tear this skinny scoundrel to pieces!!"
The disciples of the Yao Tai Sect were all filled with righteous indignation, but Ji Yexue remained calm, slightly narrowing her eyes as she looked towards the other side, slowly speaking:
"Who are you?"
Her voice carried a unique ethereal quality, cold and indifferent, like autumn frost, akin to spring dew.
Upon hearing this, the fat man spoke coldly:
"Huang Fu, one of the eight generals under the General Celestial Kill of the Celestial Evil Cult!"
The skinny man then said with a grin:
"Qi Lu, one of the eight generals under the General Celestial Kill of the Celestial Evil Cult!"
Hearing the words ’Celestial Evil Cult,’ the disciples of the Yao Tai Sect were truly shocked.
They had been fighting all this time, suffering numerous casualties, only now realizing who their opponents were.
They were perplexed as to why the General would send troops to the Tai Cang Sect, yet some had silently slipped into the Yao Tai Sect?
Ji Yexue’s face also bore confusion:
"Celestial Evil Cult?
"Our Yao Tai Sect has no grievances against the Celestial Evil Cult, why have you come to cause trouble at our Yao Tai Sect?
"Breaking our gates, killing our disciples, for what purpose?"
The confusion on Ji Yexue’s face was genuine, and her words were sincere.
But upon saying this, even the two experts under the General were somewhat flabbergasted.
The fat man shook his head with a cold smile:
"Truly insulated from worldly affairs."
"To put it bluntly, just foolish, I like it."
The skinny man laughed and said:
"Sect Leader Ji, our Celestial Evil Cult seeks to dominate the Martial World, sweeping across the world.
"Today, we come to the Yao Tai Sect for no other reason than to ask one question... Are you willing to submit to our Celestial Evil Cult?
"If willing, we can reconcile and ensure Yao Tai Sect’s prosperity from today onwards.
"If not... Then we have no choice but to keep fighting until you’re willing to submit.
"How you choose, please consider carefully, Sect Leader Ji."
Hearing this, Ji Yexue nodded, turned back to the disciples of the Yao Tai Sect, and surprisingly, asked:
"Are you willing?"
The disciples of the Yao Tai Sect were momentarily exchanging glances, a few exchanged looks, and a middle-aged man stepped forward, just about to speak.
Suddenly someone shouted loudly:
"We are unwilling!
"Since the emergence of the Celestial Evil Cult, their massacres are countless, we absolutely refuse to associate with such evil demons!"
As soon as this was said, many echoed in agreement.
For a moment, emotions were high.
The middle-aged man, who was about to speak, had to take a step back.
However, he eventually caught Ji Yexue’s attention, she looked at the middle-aged man:
"Elder He, do you have anything to say?"
The Elder immediately said:
"My words are no different from theirs.
"The Celestial Evil Cult commits evil deeds, their methods are cruel and ruthless, our Yao Tai Sect is a prestigious sect, and we should uphold justice in the Martial World, how could we collude with them?"
"Rightly said."
Ji Yexue nodded, turned to look at the fat and skinny duo again:
