After a long while, it seemed that the heavenly lightning had lost its temper, and outside the pavilion, Lu Chen was still kowtowing.
With a "bang," three bolts of lightning struck down from the sky, hitting Lu Chen directly. Even though Lu Chen's Taoist magic was extraordinary, he was still struck by the lightning and his whole body was blackened. His Taoist robe was also torn to shreds, and at first glance, he looked like a beggar.
Lu Chen coughed up a mouthful of blood, but an indescribable joy appeared on his face as he kowtowed to the sky once more.
The sky, which had been covered with dark clouds and thunder, slowly began to disperse, and soon the sun and clear blue sky appeared.
In the main hall of the True Lord, the Heavenly Lord sighed heavily, and then his figure disappeared from the hall.
Lu Chen lay on the ground under the pavilion, blood still flowing from his mouth, but he showed no sign of frustration. Instead, he lay down facing the sky, as happy as a child who had just received a reward.
"Three years?" "That should be enough." Lu Chen didn't know who he was talking to, and then he just lay there and fell asleep.
However, it caused a huge uproar throughout Longhu Mountain. Just as the lightning struck, the majestic power of heaven descended, and a large number of Longhu Mountain disciples and Taoists were unaware of what was happening. They simply knelt down in unison under this divine might.
The culprit that caused all this was now snoring softly in the sunlight.
Grandpa and Shui Yanling were originally staying with Fang Shuang, but suddenly Grandpa's expression changed drastically, and he looked up sharply towards the west.
Chapter Fifty-Two Dead End
A faint aura surged from the west, its target Fang Shuang, who was lying on the kang (heated brick bed). The aura of the Great Dao rushed towards him, and although it was still far away in the air, it had already firmly locked onto Fang Shuang.
Grandpa's face turned pale. He quickly calculated in the air with his fingers, then slammed his hand on the chair and stood up immediately, smashing the chair behind him into dust.
Shui Yanling, unaware of what had happened, quickly sensed her surroundings but found nothing suspicious. However, the sudden outburst from her grandfather indicated that something was amiss.
Shui Yanling also realized something was wrong and quickly shielded Fang Shuang with her body. Then she looked straight in the direction her grandfather was looking, her eyes filled with doubt.
"A powerful being is using the Great Dao to exclude Xiao Shuang'er, setting up a killing trap with minimal energy!" Grandpa felt the surging energy approaching and trembled all over, but he was more angry than fearful.
Why is it that even though Xiao Shuang'er has such a tragic past, there are still people who can't let her go? Do they really want to kill her completely?
Could it be the enemy of Fang Shuang's parents? But this conclusion was quickly rejected. The person's aura was strange, more like the true essence of Taoism from Longhu Mountain.
Could it be related to Lu Chen? Grandpa felt the aura coming from the sky, which seemed to be from the Heavenly Lord of Longhu Mountain, getting faster and faster. His heart sank to the bottom of the sea. He quickly took out the jade pendant from his pocket and tied it to Fang Shuang's wrist.
Grandpa, having done all this, seemed to have no other choice. If this energy came from the Heavenly Lord of the Celestial Master's Mansion, then no one here could stop it.
They could only pin their hopes on the jade pendant, hoping it could block the murderous intent emanating from that aura.
At this moment, Shui Yanling was finally able to sense something. It was an incomparably vast Daoist essence, rapidly approaching from afar. Shui Yanling's expression hardened, and she had actually made up her mind to fight that aura to the death.
When Grandpa saw this, his heart ached. How could he let these little children bear so much? So he rolled over and held the peach wood sword in his hand. Just as he was about to cast a spell to block them, a true incantation suddenly resounded throughout the sky, exploding in their ears like thunder.
Grandpa was alright; upon hearing the voice, his body only trembled slightly. But when Shui Yanling heard the words, she immediately covered her head and rolled around on the ground. The voice seemed to have exploded in her heart, causing her unbearable pain.
However, when the mantra was spoken, the mysterious energy lost its momentum and turned into a gentle breeze.
The mantra disappeared immediately after it was uttered, and Shui Yanling slowly stopped rolling around, but her face was extremely pale and she was covered in cold sweat.
Then you see a wisp of breeze moving from west to east, from outside the house to inside, then bypassing Grandpa and Shui Yanling, drifting onto Fang Shuang, and then disappearing.
After a gentle breeze passed by, Fang Shuang, who was fast asleep, revealed a smile that was as warm and comforting as a spring breeze.
The jade pendant hanging on Fang Shuang's hand flashed with a green light, and then the scars on the jade pendant lessened.
The sudden change was followed by its sudden disappearance, leaving everyone bewildered. Shui Yanling only breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that Fang Shuang was alright. That aura was terrifying, and the mantra that transformed killing intent into a spring breeze was even more vast and powerful.
Shui Yanling glanced at her grandfather. Although she didn't know who the first aura was, she had already guessed who the second incantation was, and she didn't ask her grandfather.
Grandpa, meanwhile, stared at Fang Shuang's smile, lost in thought, seemingly pondering something.
Then, Grandpa's gaze narrowed again, gradually turning towards the west, feeling the majestic power of the heavens, and he was startled.
"A heavenly tribulation?" Grandpa didn't even blink, just staring at the west. After a long time, a look of admiration appeared on his face.
