Chapter 474 - Layers of Defense

Chapter 474: Layers of Defense

Headquarters of the Luo Ding Sect.
“Elder Pang, Elder Wang, Elder Liu… quickly gather in the main hall.”
The moment Xu Longfei received the call from Qin Chuan, he contacted many elders.
These elders were all experts in the Immortal King realm, and all of them were very powerful.
Soon, the elders who had been notified arrived at the hall.
Xu Longfei didn’t explain much. When everyone was present, they headed to the Mega Planet, where the third division was.
…
Mega Planet, North Cloud City.
Thunder boomed in the sky.
Boom!
The ground was trembling.
Like a rainbow, ten figures arrived in the air above North Cloud City in a whoosh.
Xu Longfei looked down. His authoritative aura as Sect Master was fully revealed.
The elders and disciples guarding the place almost pissed their pants.
They were dumbfounded.
The elders behind Xu Longfei were all Immortal Kings.
Such a lineup was rare.
Everyone below didn’t have time to think and hurriedly kowtowed.
Xu Longfei did not elaborate on his intentions. He only said, “All of you, continue guarding.”
After speaking, he led the Immortal King elders into the barrier and met up with Qin Chuan.
“Greetings, Sect Master and Elders.” Qin Chuan was very polite. Seeing that Xu Longfei and the others had arrived, he bowed with clasped hands.
Dan Yangzi was very unwilling, but he did as he was told.
Xu Longfei and the others landed on the ground.
“Xiaochuan, what did you find?” asked Xu Longfei anxiously.
Qin Chuan cut to the chase and replied, “I discovered a spatial passageway.”
“A spatial passageway?” Xu Longfei’s expression turned grim. The same went for the elders around him.
Qin Chuan continued, “I can open this spatial passageway, but I’m not sure what dangers there are inside. Therefore, I could only seek help from you.”
Xu Longfei rubbed his chin in deep thought and glanced at the elder beside him.
He thought about how he had so many Immortal King elders on his side. Even if there was any danger, he would be able to retreat safely.
After some thought, he said, “Xiaochuan, go ahead and open it. I want to see who’s behind this.”
“Yes, Sect Master.” Qin Chuan stretched out his finger and lightly tapped the air in front of him.
Something strange happened.
A circular hole appeared in front of Qin Chuan. Hurricanes howled from within, and the surrounding air became lively.
This was the entrance to the spatial passageway.
This was because, after a long time, the passage inside was not especially complete. It was like a broken house, with holes everywhere inside.
Outside the spatial passageway was spatial turbulence. It would be very dangerous to be swept in.
Due to the damage to the passageway, the spatial storms wreaking havoc in the spatial turbulence blew in. The pressure inside was immense, and the air flow was especially violent. There were also spatial wind blades. Without any protective measures, one’s life would be in danger.
“Xiaochuan, stay out on this trip.
“Although our lineup is not bad, if the enemy’s lineup is not weak, we might not have the time to split up. It would be dangerous for you to come with us,” said Xu Longfei solemnly.
Qin Chuan said confidently, “Sect Master, I have the ability to protect myself.
“If we encountered danger, I will retreat immediately and certainly won’t implicate you and the elders.
“Furthermore, the spatial passageway has already become very unstable. If it collapses midway, all of you will be swept into the spatial turbulence, and it will take a lot of effort to return.
“If I come along, I can prevent such a thing from happening.”
Xu Longfei caught some key information from these words, but he did not say it explicitly.
“Xiaochuan, I think it’s still too dangerous for you to come.
“You have the potential to reach the Martial Monarch Realm. We don’t even know how dangerous it will be. I won’t let you come.
“As for the collapse of the spatial passageway you mentioned, you don’t have to worry about it.
“If it collapses, so be it. It will simply take more time for us to return.”
Xu Longfei and the others were experts in the Immortal King realm. Just their physical bodies alone could withstand the damage caused by the storm or wind blades in the spatial turbulence.
However, Qin Chuan was still very interested in the mastermind. No matter what, he had to follow them.
However, given Xu Longfei’s current attitude, he basically wouldn’t agree to let him join them.
After much thought, Qin Chuan could only agree verbally.
Before Xu Longfei and the others were about to enter, Xu Longfei called the elder guarding the barrier outside and asked him to bring Qin Xiaochuan and Dan Yangzi out. He also forbade them from entering.
Xu Longfei had a good grasp of Qin Chuan’s intentions. He knew that he would play some tricks.
Under his watch, Qin Chuan and Dan Yangzi were brought out of the barrier.
Xu Longfei was still worried.
He had placed many restrictions in this area. Without a way to break the array formation, even a Golden Immortal would not be able to destroy it with external forces.
With these measures, Xu Longfei could finally relax.
They entered the spatial passageway.
On the other hand, Qin Chuan and Dan Yangzi were closely watched by the elders outside the barrier under Xu Longfei’s orders to prevent them from messing around.
“Elders, there’s no need for this, is there!” Qin Chuan awkwardly smiled.
An elder said, “Xiaochuan, we don’t want to do this either, but this is the Sect Master’s order. We dare not disobey.”
Qin Chuan smiled awkwardly, “Well, isn’t the Sect Master gone now?
“Just turn a blind eye. I guarantee that I won’t do anything rash.”
Qin Chuan’s expression was rather serious when he said the last sentence. He was just short of making an oath.
These elders shook their heads and did not compromise.
“Xiaochuan, you have to understand our job. We don’t dare to take this risk.
“If the Sect Master finds out, we will definitely be punished. Please understand us!” the elders advised earnestly.
“Alright! Alright! In that case, I have no choice but to leave then.”
“I’m returning to my dormitory. Elders, you don’t have to follow me now, do you?” said Qin Chuan.
The elders exchanged glances and communicated with their divine consciousnesses.
“How about this! Elder Chu and I will go with you,” said an elder.
“No problem!” Qin Chuan had long expected this to happen. It didn’t matter whether they followed him or not.
“Old Dan, let’s go.” Qin Chuan turned around and patted Dan Yangzi’s shoulder.
“Got it!” Dan Yangzi knew Qin Chuan well enough. He definitely wouldn’t let this matter rest.
Just like that, they flew south and returned to the third division in a few minutes.
“Elders, I’m home.” Qin Chuan smiled and bowed.
What he meant was, I’m home. You guys can leave now.
However, it was unknown whether these two elders did not understand or were doing it on purpose, but they only nodded and did not have any intention of leaving.
Qin Chuan thought for a second and said, “Elders, why don’t you have a seat in my room.
“I have special tea from the Lower realm. Please have a taste.”
“No need! Elder Chu and I never like to drink tea.”
“In that case, I’ll return to my room to rest.”
“Go!”
After Qin Chuan returned to his room, through his divine consciousness, he saw that the two elders still hadn’t left. He couldn’t help but curse inwardly.
“It seems that as long as Xu Longfei and the others aren’t back, these two won’t leave.
“But you guys are still too inexperienced to keep an eye on me.”
Qin Chuan chuckled. He already had a plan.
But there was no hurry now. He would sleep first.
After all, it took a lot of effort to piece together the spatial fragments. He had to recover his energy first.
