Yue Qianchou's Legend
An ancient, weathered, and serenely indifferent voice resonated in the minds of everyone on Fu Xian Island: "The Demon Ghost Domain is not a place for you. I will not allow a group of people with your cultivation level to disrupt the balance here. You have half an hour to retreat and are not allowed to venture further into the Demon Ghost Domain, or you will be killed without mercy!"
"Who exactly are you? Why don't you come out and show yourself?" Grandma Ma Jiu shouted sharply, but her face betrayed her fear. The other party was too powerful, so powerful that a single thought could severely injure a group of cultivators at the late Tribulation Transcendence stage Realm. Unfortunately, the man did not respond to her.
Suddenly, they saw Ao Li nodding vigorously, clearly indicating that the powerful figure was also speaking to him. After a moment, Ao Li said to his four subordinates in a somewhat flustered tone, "Let's go back." After saying that, he took the lead and flew away, with the four following closely behind. As for the Green Vine Soft Sedan they had come in, it had long been blown apart by the shockwave.
Seeing the once arrogant Ao Li retreat in such a sorry state, the people of Fu Xian Island remained silent. Guan Dinghai suddenly thought of an impossible possibility and exclaimed in surprise, "Could it be the Spirit Transformation stage?"
Upon hearing this, everyone was shocked. Yes, besides the legendary Spirit Transformation stage, who else could possess such strength? It was truly unbelievable; if they hadn't experienced it firsthand, who would believe that Spirit Transformation stage cultivators actually existed? Grandma Ma Jiu said in a deep voice, "He gave us half an hour. Let's retreat back to the mountaintop first."
Five retainers flashed to Dongfang Changao and the others, each grabbing two and quickly rushing towards the mountain peak.
The elders from various sects on the mountain were startled to see the approaching group. Regardless of whether they were righteous or demonic, they all rushed over. Upon seeing them clearly, they were so shocked that they couldn't even close their mouths. Ten elders from Fu Xian Island, including Dongfang Changao, were unconscious, while the five elders were pale and had blood on their lips.
The guardian who remained on the mountain was Lu Qing. Upon seeing this scene, he exclaimed in disbelief, "Ninth Aunt, what exactly happened?"
"Lu Qing, no need for further words, you should heal their wounds first." Grandma Ma Jiu said, pointing to the ten elders, including Dongfang Changao, who had already been placed on the ground. She then sat down cross-legged with the other four retainers.
The elders from the other factions exchanged bewildered glances, their faces filled with astonishment and uncertainty. What had they encountered down the mountain? Even five late Tribulation Transcendence stage Elders were injured? It was simply unbelievable. They all turned their gazes down the mountain, but unfortunately, they couldn't discern anything amiss.
After a long while, the five elders exhaled and stood up one after another. After a short while, the ten elders also slowly woke up. Dongfang Changao opened his eyes and exclaimed, "Impressive! I never thought that the Demon Ghost Domain would hide such a person."
Grandma Ma Jiu immediately shouted, "Chang'ao, stop talking nonsense." The former looked around and realized that they had returned to the mountaintop, where people from all the major sects were. He quickly shut his mouth, got up, and stood aside.
The other elders exchanged glances, their hearts filled with shock. Although Fu Xian Island was trying to conceal something, they could tell from Dongfang Changao's words that the people of Fu Xian Island had encountered someone at the foot of the mountain—someone capable of single-handedly severely injuring five of Fu Xian Island's elders and ten other elders. If Dongfang Changao wasn't talking nonsense, then this person was far too terrifying. The Demon Ghost Domain was indeed no place to be trifled with.
"Chang'ao, check if those six disciples are still alive?" Guan Dinghai asked. Dongfang Changao, took out a compass, cast Method Formula, and placed it in front of everyone. The six points of Divine Sense on it were still bright and clear, and judging from the distance between them, they were obviously clustered together.
Guan Dinghai asked again, "Do you know who these six people are?" These six guys had made him and his fellow old men look disheveled and embarrassed. He couldn't convince himself otherwise without finding out who they were.
Elder Quan and Elder Sun exchanged a glance; Guan Dinghai was their master. Elder Quan stepped forward and said, "Master, I know who these six people are. They are Gu Qingyun from the Cultivation Pavilion, Xiao Wanqing from the Anran Pavilion, Kou Xuehua, Murong Xian, and Mei Yinhong from the Myriad Fragrance Garden, and one more is..."
"What are you stammering about? There are only five. Who is the other one?" Guan Dinghai turned around and scolded his disciple.
Elder Quan was hesitating whether to remind his master that the disciple was his son's disciple, but seeing that his master was unhappy, he simply said, "There is also the only personal disciple of Senior Brother Guan from the Alchemy Pavilion, named Yue Qianchou."
"Uh... a powerful personal disciple? When did he start taking on disciples?" Guan Dinghai asked in astonishment. He knew his son too well; he was no fit to be a teacher, he was practically a disservice to students.
"Is it Yue Qianchou?" Grandma Ma Jiu suddenly exclaimed, "I met this disciple at the Sang Cao Garden. I never imagined that Wei Wu would take in such an outstanding disciple. Ah! It's true that fools are often blessed!"
Guan Dinghai was even more astonished. Just how outstanding was the disciple his son had taken on? Even his aunt, who was never one to praise others, was full of praise for him. He really had to see for himself.
At the summit, fewer than eight hundred disciples from various sects remained. They overheard Yue Qianchou being whispered about by only one or two people initially, but soon almost all the disciples were discussing him, as if they all knew him, their words filled with admiration and praise. This scene left the sect elders somewhat incredulous.
Qiu Wuyuan of the Ten Yue Qianchou Myriad Demon Palace had met Yue Qianchou once Chou Wuyuan. First, he heard Grandma Ma Jiu praising him, and now he heard the disciples praising him as well. He had never seen such a situation before. When had he ever seen disciples from Righteous and Demonic paths praise one person at the same time?
Chou Wuyuan had a bad temper, but people with bad tempers are usually impatient. He was so agitated by the crowd that he couldn't help but shout, "Can anyone tell me what's going on with Yue Qianchou?"
The first to respond were naturally the disciples of his Myriad Demon Palace. After bowing to him, several disciples began to recount Yue Qianchou's legendary story, one after another. Perhaps some felt their account was inaccurate, or that they had omitted details, or something like that. First, more and more disciples from the Myriad Demon Palace gathered around, and then disciples from various other sects gradually joined in.
Let's start with how Yue Qianchou faced the Ghost General's Qian Jun, how he led everyone into the Ghost General's camp, how he remained unmoved in the face of the Ghost General's rebukes, how he refused to kneel, and how he chatted and laughed in front of the Ghost General and his men.
There's also the story of how the Ghost General was captivated by Yue Qianchou's song; the story of his soldiers shouting "Mr. Yue, you are a genius!"; the story of the Ghost General inviting Yue Qianchou for a drink; and finally, the story of Yue Qianchou rescued everyone.
The disciples from various sects recounted the story of Yue Qianchou and the Ghost General with earth-shattering detail, especially the part where Yue Qianchou's song determined the fate of the world, which they described with such fervor that it moved heaven and earth to tears. In short, the details of the events were described very thoroughly, making everyone feel as if they were there themselves. Some disciples, unable to get a topic of conversation, added embellishments, exaggerating the dangers and making the explicit scenes even more thrilling, thus greatly amplifying the story. Some of the musically talented female disciples from the Wangyue Sect even spontaneously joined in singing "Love the country more than the beauty."
The elders from various sects and the six elders from Fu Xian Island were dumbfounded, all wishing they could immediately bring Yue Qianchou to see what kind of person he was. Qiu Wuyuan stroked his beard and sighed, "Chou Wuyuan a peerless hero! I misjudged him! I misjudged him!"
Elder Quan and Elder Sun looked at each other in bewilderment. How come we didn't realize that Yue Qianchou, who was drooling and sleeping on the spaceship, was such a person?
Guan Dinghai's facial muscles twitched, and he said woodenly, "Is this the disciple of Wei Wu? My Fu Xian Island actually has such a person hidden away? It's really hard to believe!"
Grandma Ma Jiu recalled that day at the seaside, when it was Yue Qianchou's song that moved Yan Zixia, which led her to have the idea of matchmaking the two. She couldn't help but sigh and said, "I believe what they said. I have personally heard Yue Qianchou's music and singing skills. It would not be an exaggeration to say that he is the best in the world in this field. It is truly breathtaking. Besides, these disciples of the Righteous and Demonic paths did not know him before. Is it necessary for them to praise him?"
