Chapter 342: Unjust Species
Tao Zi rushed out of Cun Xuyuan and knocked the alien to the ground with a hammer, which finally relieved the anger in his heart.
"Senior Sister!!!" Xi Jing screamed.
She looked back and saw Xi Jing and others standing opposite Cun Xuyuan, waving at her frantically.
Yan Wenxuan looked at her and said from a distance: "Not bad, you're still alive."
Time goes back half an hour.
Xi Jing and the others remained on the fifth floor. The spiritual energy surged more and more frequently. Just when Yan Wenxuan was about to give up, a voice appeared in the ears of everyone in Cun Xuyuan: "Leave within ten minutes."
The moment this voice sounded, the spiritual energy in the entire abyss quieted down. They didn't bother to think about other things and left quickly.
They met Xu Qianjia and others outside the abyss, and also learned from the elder that Tao Zi and the others had gone down to Xiaoyuan.
Before Xi Jing could ask about her senior sister's possible whereabouts, Cun Xuyuan exploded, and the spiritual energy in the air attacked indiscriminately. Even the elders in the out-of-body stage vomited blood. Many people fell unconscious on the spot, and only those who were far away were relatively better off.
Xi Jing was firmly protected by Hua Seng and Li Xiu. Furthermore, she was far enough away and in relatively good condition. She immediately rushed down to the abyss to find someone. However, Lan Yongji said, "There's no way she could have survived an explosion of this magnitude."
She ignored Li Xiu's attempts to stop her and angrily said, "Master Qingqin, you are cursing me!"
Seeing that she insisted on going down the abyss, Xu Qianjia gently dissuaded her: "Fellow Daoist Xi Jing, if Fellow Daoist Tao were still alive, he wouldn't want you to go looking for her."
"Do you all hope that Senior Sister will die?"
He sighed and said, "Fellow Daoist Xi Jing, if you have proof that she's still alive, we'll naturally go down to the abyss to look for her. But if you don't, we can't let anyone take the risk in vain."
Xi Jing's face was grim, but someone on the side echoed, "Young Master, this is also for your own good."
Li Xiu said in a calm voice, "Tao Mei's life and death are unknown. This is to resolve the matter of Cun Xuyuan, but the crisis of Cun Xuyuan should have been handled by Minglan Sect. I would like to ask, what did the young sect leader do during this crisis?"
Xu Qianjia's face looked unhappy. Hua Monk added slowly, "As far as I know, every time the Cunxuyuan Ruins are opened, the Minglan Sect takes up half of the training spots."
These two people almost said that Lan Zong was only taking benefits but not doing anything this time.
Lan Yongji wanted to speak, but Xi Jing spoke first, saying coldly, "I don't care about this mess. Remove the formation now. I want to go in."
One cultivator was furious and shouted, "Even the formation couldn't stop this spiritual energy riot. If you retreat again, do you want us to die?"
Her voice also rose: "So you want my senior sister to die? My senior sister shouldn't have come here today!"
The monk sneered, "Didn't your senior sister come here for you? If she dies, what does it have to do with us? Don't let her get us into trouble, okay?"
Xi Jing was so angry that she couldn't speak.
Li Xiu patted her shoulder soothingly and said slowly, "She went to Xiaoyuan to deal with the alien issue. Do you all think that the alien issue is only related to us? Or do you think that cultivators who get into trouble for killing aliens are not worth saving?"
As he said this, he glanced at the monks around him.
A cultivator stepped forward and said loudly, "That's wrong. If this matter involves the alien race, then it concerns the entire continent. I suggest that cultivators who are afraid of death or have low strength leave this place immediately, so that other cultivators who understand the greater good and are capable can descend into the abyss to rescue them."
The monk who spoke earlier was almost pale in the face.
Lan Yongji said unhappily, "How can we save them? You know how powerful that explosion was."
"Master Qingqin, you also know it's an explosion? Have you ever seen an explosion that lasts forever?"
The same thought flashed through the minds of many people: This cultivator either has a grudge against the Minglan Sect, or he is not afraid of death.
Very few people dared to speak to him like this, especially a casual cultivator. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He shouted, "What if it happens again halfway? Do you want those cultivators who went down to search for him to die in vain?"
The monk snorted, flicked his sleeves, and said, "I volunteered to go down to the abyss. As a monk, being afraid of this and that, looking ahead and behind, is just ridiculous!"
Yan Wenxuan laughed heartily and said, "Well said! Unfortunately, I'm seriously injured and can't get down from the abyss. Yinggui, I leave it to you."
He Yinggui: "...Follow the orders of the strict chief hall master."
The monk bowed and praised, "Master Yan is very courageous."
He Yinggui:...
At this moment, Xu Qianjia suddenly spoke up, "Yongji, you haven't thought it through. This time, it's indeed Minglan Sect's fault for not handling the situation thoughtfully enough, and there have been oversights. I'll go down with you all."
At this point, Minglan Zong has no choice but to speak up, otherwise, once today is over, all kinds of messy rumors will fly around.
A cultivator from the Minglan Sect asked gently, "Miss Xi Jing, do you have any way to determine Fellow Daoist Tao's location or whether he's alive or dead?"
She shook her head, looking dejected.
"I have it." A faint voice sounded, and everyone turned to look. A monk lying on the ground took out a jade pendant, "This was left by Daoist Fellow Tao. As long as the jade pendant is intact, the person is still alive."
Xi Jing's eyes lit up as she looked at the intact jade pendant.
Xu Qianjia smiled with relief and said, "That's good."
At this moment, only Lan Yongji, who was standing nearby, noticed his clenched hands.
Before he could pick a good person, a sound suddenly came from Cun Xuyuan, and an alien rushed out from inside, and was then knocked to the ground by a pink sledgehammer.
They didn't recognize the bloody and dirty monk, but they recognized the hammer!
Tao Zi jumped over from the opposite side, but before she could say anything, the sky suddenly changed.
The sky is filled with rosy clouds, auspicious clouds are swirling, and the sound of a phoenix can be heard faintly.
She turned around and saw Yue Qingya rising above the abyss holding a little phoenix, with a hairless fox on his shoulder. The rosy clouds in the sky fell on them, making them look even more celestial.
Someone murmured in shock: "It would be better if an immortal came down to earth like this."
Tao Zi watched this scene silently, and deeply realized what it meant to be wronged.
Yue Qingya looked at her, smiled awkwardly, landed on her side, and handed the little fox to her.
Tao Zi grabbed the little fox that was about to become depressed, and the moods of the master and pet were highly consistent at this moment.
At this moment, Xu Qianjia stepped out from the crowd and looked directly at the little fox in his arms, his eyes sparkling with brilliance: "What is this?"
"Phoenix." Yue Qingya paused and continued, "Before this, its aura had been hidden by Cun Xuyuan."
Tao Zi had doubts about this statement - the one hiding the aura of the little phoenix was more likely to be an alien.
Xu Qianjia smiled slightly and said, "Thank you for your help, Master Yue."
Could you please help me?
She raised her eyebrows, it turned out that she was not the only one who was being blamed.
