Chapter 1034 Lantern Festival
Chi Tan gritted his teeth, "Damn it!"
Luo Li snapped her fingers, and the surrounding illusions shattered.
The moment the illusion began to fade, the disciples of the surrounding Yao Chi Holy Land also noticed the situation here and rushed over.
A trace of blood flowed out of Chi Tan's body. Thinking of the Lord God's order, she gritted her teeth slightly. She absolutely could not expose herself to the sight of the Yao Chi Holy Land at this time.
Blood from Chi Tan's fingertips splashed onto the array pattern, and the black mist suddenly boiled and condensed into a teleportation array talisman.
Luo Li swung her sword towards the spatial crack, only to see Chi Tan's true form transformed into a shadow and evaded into the vortex of the spell. "Luo Li, I am the third apostle of the Lord God. Next time, you won't be so lucky!"
When the disciples from the nearby Yao Chi Holy Land arrived, they saw a messy street.
An Shuxue and others also rushed over. They were shocked when Luo Li, Lan Xiaoxiao and others suddenly disappeared.
Luo Li looked at the black fog that dissipated from the teleportation array, the soul fire on her fingertips gradually weakened, and her face turned pale.
Mu Ze supported her shaking shoulders in time. Lan Xiaoxiao withdrew the water dragon and quickly took out a pill and fed it to her, "Ali, how are you?"
"The third apostle?" Mu Ze kicked away the half-melted chain at his feet, lightning arcs crackling on the blade, "She is Yan Ye's! Damn it!"
Lan Xiaoxiao looked at the Yao Chi disciples who were gradually gathering around her and frowned. "How should I explain this to them? If I tell them it was someone from the You Clan who did it, will they believe me?"
Luo Li leaned against Mu Ze and breathed a sigh of relief, her fingertips stroking the pale golden lines on her palm: "No need to explain."
She raised her eyes to look at the young man who was leading the Yao Chi disciples. The latter was staring at the charred remains of the Soul Devouring Formation on the ground with a frown.
"Young Master Luo, this..."
Lan Xiaoxiao lowered her voice and said, "But the You Clan coming to the Yaochi Holy Land is definitely not simple. We..."
"Here's the evidence." Luo Li handed the black blood-stained Xuan Yue Sword to the young man. The unburned soul fire on the blade was burning the remaining array talismans. "Please convey this to the Seventh Peak Master. The apostles under the Lord God have extended their evil hands to the Yao Chi Holy Land."
The young man's pupils shrank slightly, his face solemn, and he clasped his fists towards the three people: "I understand. Thank you, Young Master Luo, for telling me."
He glanced around and said, "Young Master Luo, go and recover first. Leave this to us."
"good."
Luo Li nodded and took Lan Xiaoxiao and the others back to the inn.
After returning to the inn, Luo Li took another pill. After a while, she was almost fully recovered.
Lan Xiaoxiao sat on the stool and pressed her forehead. "What kind of luck do we have?"
An Shuxue asked worriedly, "Are they planning to do something at today's prayer meeting?"
"Probably not," Luo Li shook her head and said, "They're probably here for the Immortals' Gathering. The conflict with Chi Tan today was unexpected."
Mu Ze stabbed his long sword into the ground, lightning flashing across the blade. "Yan Ye's reach is long enough to even disrupt the gathering of immortals at Yao Chi Holy Land. Could it be that he's come all the way here to cause trouble?"
Luo Li tapped her fingertips lightly, "Yan Ye actually sent people from the You Clan. I'm afraid it's not just to cause trouble."
Yue Hanchuan frowned, "If they also want to participate in the Immortal Gathering, Yaochi Holy Land will not be able to refuse them. Doesn't that mean we will definitely confront us?"
Luo Li's eyes darkened slightly, and her fingertips tapped lightly on the table, making a rhythmic sound. "Yan Ye's actions have always been mysterious and unpredictable. If they really participate in the Immortal Gathering, they must have some ulterior motive."
Lan Xiaoxiao suddenly sat up straight, a hint of vigilance flashing in her eyes: "Wait, do you think... could this be related to 'that thing'?"
Song Wanbai's expression changed when he heard this: "You mean—the treasure of Yaochi Holy Land?"
Mu Ze gripped the hilt tightly and lowered his voice, "The legendary 'Tongtian Divine Mirror' that can communicate with the laws of heaven and earth? But isn't that just a rumor? It's still unclear whether it exists."
Yue Hanchuan crossed his arms, "Now that the power of chaos has dissipated, Yan Ye might be desperate."
Mu Ze and the others suddenly became serious, looking at Yue Hanchuan and nodded seriously, "That makes sense. After all, Yan Ye is indeed a dog."
Luo Li looked at them playing tricks, laughed and shook her head. Just as she was about to speak, a strange sound of wind suddenly came from outside the window.
She flashed and appeared at the window in an instant. She raised her finger and a cold light shot out of the window.
"Ah!" A scream was heard, followed by the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.
The others quickly came to the window and saw a man in black lying in a pool of blood with an icicle stuck in his chest.
"They are from the You Clan," Song Wanbai's eyes flashed, "It seems we have been targeted by the You Clan."
Lan Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth and said, "What should we do now? Should we notify the people from Yao Chi Holy Land?"
Luo Li narrowed her eyes. "The Yaochi Holy Land is no pushover. The Seventh Peak Master, Mu Zhong, should already know about our fight. We don't need to worry about it anymore."
"That's right," Makize scratched his head, "So what should we do now?"
Luo Li turned around and sat down. "Before the gathering of immortals, the You Clan shouldn't be exposed again, so next, we still have to wait for the prayer meeting tonight."
Lan Xiaoxiao and the others' eyes suddenly lit up.
“I haven’t even attended a prayer meeting yet!”
"Me too!"
"We just arrived in the Continent of Gods, and we've never participated before."
Luo Li smiled and said, "Let's have fun and relax tonight."
As night fell, the prayer meeting of the Yao Chi Holy Land was held as scheduled on the lake island outside Yao Chi City.
The seventy-two holy lotus lanterns around the lake lit up one after another, reflecting the water surface with radiant light.
Lan Xiaoxiao clutched Song Wanbai's sleeve and pushed forward, the newly inserted jade hairpin in her hair swaying slightly with her steps. "Look! Is that the lotus lantern brewed by the spiritual mist? It smells so good!"
There were also quite a few people from other factions hanging around, most of them locals from the Yaochi Holy Land. However, as Luo Li had expected, none of the Wanhua Territory or You Clan members showed up.
Lan Xiaoxiao and An Shuxue were having a great time, so Luo Li followed them and strolled around the blessing lantern festival.
Yue Hanchuan and the other boys were not very interested in this kind of place, but they still followed Luo Li and the other two.
Walking to the lake, Lan Xiaoxiao said excitedly, "Look over there! They seem to be releasing Holy Lotus Lanterns to pray for blessings! Let's go release one too!"
Luo Li looked in the direction of Lan Xiaoxiao's finger and saw a lot of people gathered by the lake, placing crystal clear holy lotus lanterns into the lake.
Under the light, the lake looks like a galaxy of stars, which is beautiful beyond words.
"Okay," Luo Li nodded with a smile, "Since we're here, we naturally have to pray for good luck."
Song Wanbai looked helplessly at his sleeves wrinkled by Lan Xiaoxiao, and said softly, "Walk slowly, the lamp won't run away."
Lan Xiaoxiao stuck out her tongue, let go of her hand, but still ran quickly towards the stall by the lake.
