A Hand That Blotted Out the Sky
"Who?!"
The cultivator was greatly alarmed and was about to turn around.
"Bang!"
A muffled thud.
He exploded into a cloud of blood mist!
Immediately afterwards, a familiar figure in green robes slowly emerged from the Xukong and stood in front of the two sisters.
"My woman, is she someone you can touch?"
That sound...
Li Hongxiu and Li Qingyue trembled as if struck by lightning!
They looked up abruptly at that broad, upright figure, and tears instantly streamed down their faces!
"Husband... husband?!"
"Dongfang?!"
Dongfang Yueming turned around, looked at the two women's tear-streaked faces, opened his arms, and smiled:
"I'm sorry to have startled you."
"I've come to take you home."
A moment later, at the city lord's mansion.
When Dongfang Yueming returned with the two sisters, Hong Ling and Shi Qing, who were sitting in the courtyard basking in the sun, widened their eyes in surprise.
"Sister Hongxiu! Sister Qingyue!"
Shi Qing rushed forward with delight, and the four women embraced and wept.
Hong Ling puffed out her cheeks, jumped in front of Dongfang Yueming, and pinched his waist hard with her small hand.
"Hmph! You big jerk! I knew you wouldn't be up to anything good when you went out!"
"How long has it been? And they've brought back two more!"
"Are we going to move the entire harem here in the future?"
Dongfang Yueming winced in pain, but could only manage a helpless, bitter smile.
"Alright, everyone's here."
He summoned the women to the main hall, his expression becoming solemn.
"The Immortal Realm is dangerous; your current cultivation levels are still too weak."
"Since we're here, let's improve our strength first."
He waved his hand dismissively.
"Splash--!"
Countless shimmering immortal stones, elixirs, and jade slips, piled up like small mountains, filled the entire hall!
The intense, precious light almost blinded the women!
"This... this is..." Li Hongxiu covered her mouth in shock.
"And these pills... they all seem to be top-grade?!"
In the Lower Realm, they had never seen such extravagant wealth.
Don't be stingy.
Dongfang Yueming picked up a bottle of [Marrow Cleansing Immortal Pill] and stuffed it into the hands of the girls like candy.
"This kind of pill can be eaten as food."
"Here are a few [immortal techniques] suitable for your physiques, take them and practice them!"
"And these magical artifacts, each of you pick a few for self-defense!"
His current net worth is truly "rich enough to rival a country".
Raising several wives is just a drop in the ocean!
"Husband... did you go to cultivate, or did you go to plunder the entire Immortal Realm?" Li Hongxiu swallowed hard and couldn't help but ask.
"More or less."
Dongfang Yueming smiled but didn't explain further.
In the days that followed, peace and tranquility prevailed within the city lord's mansion.
Dongfang Yueming did not rush out, but instead spent a rare period of peace with the women.
During the day, he guided the women in their cultivation, helping them quickly adapt to the laws of the Immortal Realm and smoothing out their meridians.
At night, it is...
Red waves roll, spring colors are boundless.
With the accumulation of massive resources and the assistance of dual cultivation based on Dongfang Yueming's "special physique".
Li Qingyue, Hong Ling, Shi Qing, Su Wurao...
All four women have broken through to the Heavenly Immortal Realm!
If word got out about this cultivation speed, it would probably terrify everyone in the entire Desolate Ancient Immortal Domain!
"Call..."
Watching the women who were in seclusion to consolidate their cultivation, Dongfang Yueming sat in the courtyard, sipping his immortal tea, a hint of contentment flashing in his eyes.
"This is... life."
However.
The tree may wish to be still, but the wind will not cease.
His keen [Innate Supreme Dao Bone] suddenly twitched slightly as he sensed a faint malice approaching Wuhe Immortal City from the distant horizon!
"Um?"
Dongfang Yueming put down his teacup, his gaze becoming deep and cold.
"Finally... did they find them?"
"The Flowing Clouds Sect..."
In Wuhe Immortal City, the clear blue sky suddenly turned as dark as ink.
"Boom--!!!"
A deafening roar, like a chariot crushing the sky, rolled in from the distant horizon. Accompanying it was an undisguised, terrifying pressure filled with brutality and murderous intent!
Under this oppressive force, the city's protective array creaked under the strain, its light flickering erratically.
Countless cultivators in the city looked up in shock.
A thousand-foot-long azure warship pierced through the clouds and hovered above the immortal city. Banners fluttered on the warship, and the two large characters "Flowing Clouds" exuded a breathtaking immortal aura.
"It's... it's the enforcement warship of the Flowing Clouds Sect!"
"My God! The one leading the team... is actually Yun Sha, the Grand Elder of Law Enforcement of the Flowing Clouds Sect!"
Someone recognized the sinister-looking old man at the bow of the ship, his body Entanglement in black lightning, and their voice trembled.
"This is a genuine Late True Immortal! The number of souls who have died at his hands must be at least eight or ten thousand!"
"It seems the Flowing Clouds Sect is here to settle scores because of Elder Yun Zhongzi's disappearance some time ago!"
For a time, the entire Wuhe Immortal City was filled with unease.
Those family forces that had originally submitted to Dongfang Yueming now began to have their own ideas again.
The remnants of the Sun Family, along with the heads of several other small and medium-sized families, hid in the shadows, their eyes gleaming.
"This new city lord is powerful, but in the end, he's just one person."
"The Flowing Clouds Sect is a major sect with Mystic Immortal Ancestor presiding over it! This time, True Immortal is pressing in; can they withstand it?"
"Should we... take this opportunity to betray them and pledge our allegiance?"
High in the sky.
Yun Sha stood with his hands behind his back, coldly looking down at the city lord's mansion below.
"Where is the new leader of Wuhe Immortal City?!"
His voice was like rolling Tianlei, and with the enhancement of magical power, it made the eardrums of all the cultivators in the city ache.
"I have determined that the last trace of Elder Yun Zhongzi of our sect disappeared in this vicinity!"
"Furthermore, someone saw you in contact with Elder Yun Zhongzi!"
"I'll give you three breaths to come out and face your death! Otherwise..."
"Slaughter the city!"
"Slaughter the city! Slaughter the city! Slaughter the city!"
On the warship, hundreds of elite Flowing Clouds Sect roared in unison, their killing intent soaring to the sky!
Inside the city lord's mansion, the women listened to the commotion outside. Although they knew their husbands were incredibly Heaven Reaching, they still couldn't help but feel a little nervous in the face of such a scene.
"Husband..." Li Hongxiu looked towards the inner room with some worry.
It's alright.
A languid voice came from the inner room.
Dongfang Yueming was leaning back on the soft couch, toying with a jade slip in his hand, showing no intention of even getting up.
"Just a bunch of flies."
"Since you're here, don't leave."
The moment the words left his mouth.
Outside, the world suddenly changed!
"Boom--!!!"
An indescribable wave of terror suddenly erupted from the depths of the City Lord's Mansion!
Immediately afterwards, to the astonishment of all the cultivators in the city, a gigantic hand of magical power, capable of blotting out the sky, materialized out of thin air!
The giant hand was a chaotic color, with clear palm lines like ravines, and its five fingers were like pillars supporting the sky, with various Divine Chains of Law swirling around it!
It rose slowly, and in an instant, it covered the entire sky!
Before that giant hand, the Flowing Clouds Sect Sect's warship, which was a thousand feet long, looked like a laughable toy model!
"What... what is this?!"
The coldness and killing intent on Yun Sha's face completely collapsed in that instant!
He looked up, his eyes widening in disbelief at the giant hand that was slowly descending!
That aura...
It's not just vastness, it's an absolute crushing on a different level!
"Law... law?!"
