Chapter 208 I Must Persevere
Although she was arrogant back then, she always called me Fifth Brother sweetly every time she saw me.
He thought he was different in her heart, and he wanted his father to come and propose marriage, but he heard that she was missing.
Thinking back to when he learned she was missing, he searched almost the entire Cangwu Realm but still couldn't find her.
Over the years, he had traveled extensively, hoping to find her somewhere in the Cangwu Realm. He always returned disappointed, and this time, just as he was about to give up, she appeared again.
She was still as bright and beautiful as ever, but she looked much more stable. She had become even more perfect. If she became the head of the Dongfeng family, I'm afraid she wouldn't marry me!
He was feeling sad, and he raised his head to look at Dongfeng Xiyue again.
At this time, Dongfeng Xiyue kept looking around the square. Ever since she learned yesterday that Gu Liyue had left, she had been a little absent-minded.
She kept wondering why Gu Liyue left her without even saying goodbye. Didn't she know that she was worried about her?
I thought she might come to the square today because of the new recruitment, but I couldn't find her. What should I do?
Those few people just now gave me a very special feeling. I thought it was Gu Liyue, but when I looked closely, I found that it was not her. It was just an ordinary female cultivator.
She was upset, but she had to cheer up and preside over the recruitment.
She looked around the whole place and found that the guards of the Dongfeng family and the other three families were diligently patrolling around the square. Her Dongfeng family's secret guards were also hiding in the dark, ready to show up at any time to protect the whole place if they found any abnormal situation.
Her mind fluttered. No, those people were Li Yue and the others. They must have used the Disguise Pill. She scanned them carefully with her spiritual sense, confirming her inner thoughts, and finally calmed down.
The head of the Dongfeng family finished his speech and left the stage.
Dongfeng Xiyue announced that the Dongfeng family had started recruiting new members. A crystal pillar for testing cultivation was placed on the stage, and the registered new disciples came on stage to take the test.
At this time, a huge vortex appeared in the originally clear sky.
The spiritual energy in the square swirled around, and was eventually swallowed by the vortex. At first, the cultivators thought it was a gimmick put on by the Dongfeng family to recruit new members.
Until the cultivator with low cultivation level was almost knocked down by the spiritual energy flow, the head of the Dongfeng family looked at the sky, and the face that had been calm for years changed slightly. Dongfeng Xiyue had already landed on the stage. She looked at the head of the family, waiting for his instructions.
The surrounding spiritual energy was swept high into the sky and disappeared.
Gu Yue looked at Qing'er, and Qing'er shook her head slightly, indicating that this was not her work.
Then a loud thunder exploded in the sky.
"Boom", the thunder with black air struck straight towards the platform.
The head of the Dongfeng family mobilized his spiritual power to strike the lightning directly. Seeing this, the other three family heads also took action at the same time, gathering their spiritual power. The spiritual power turned into three strong lights and struck the lightning with black energy.
Spiritual power and lightning collided in the air, strangling and devouring each other.
There was a loud bang, which stunned the monks present for a moment.
The monks around looked at this scene in horror, and then a powerful airflow of spiritual energy spread in all directions.
Many monks were blown away and fell heavily to the ground. Their internal organs were displaced and they screamed in pain.
Most of the spiritual power of the four family heads was consumed by that black lightning, but it still hit the stage in the end.
There was another loud bang, and the solid platform shattered into pieces, with rocks and gravel flying everywhere.
Gu Yue and the others stood around Qing'er, their bodies enveloped in Qing'er's barrier, and they were not harmed.
Gu Yue found that these ten people were too conspicuous, so she hurriedly pulled Qing'er and followed the crowd of people led by Xin Fei to retreat to the surrounding area.
The VIP seats below the stage were mostly filled with cultivators of advanced cultivation. Some of them threw out magical instruments to resist, while others gathered spiritual energy shields to protect themselves. In the end, they all retreated several feet.
The four patriarchs were shocked by this blow and their blood surged. The head of the Lin family, who had a lower level of cultivation, directly spat out a large mouthful of blood.
The four of them looked pale, they didn't expect the thunder to be so strong. They were already the ones with the highest cultivation in Suzaku City, and their combined strength only consumed a part of it. When did such a strong figure appear in the Cangwu Realm?
Dongfeng Xiyue protected the four of them and retreated a few feet away.
She was so shocked. She couldn't even see her opponent clearly, but the four family heads were in such a mess. How high must the opponent's cultivation level be?
A hint of pride flashed in Dongfeng Linyuan's eyes. He also walked to the side of the Dongfeng Patriarch and asked with concern, "Patriarch, are you okay?"
The head of the Dongfeng family glanced at him and thought his expression was a little strange, but he had no time to delve into it, so he shook his head.
The other monks ignored the pain and immediately left the square after getting up. The scene was in chaos. The joy turned into wailing and people fled in fear.
The head of the Dongfeng family looked very unhappy this time. He didn't expect that after not recruiting new members for many years, he decided to recruit new members this year but something like this happened.
The head of the Cheng family whispered, "There's nothing we can do today. Let's just leave it at that."
The head of the Dongfeng family looked at the shattered platform unwillingly, then looked at Dongfeng Xiyue. He shouldn't blame her, as the power of the thunder was not something she could control.
He said to Xiyue resignedly, "Let's clean up the mess first!"
Dongfeng Xiyue said respectfully, "As you command, Patriarch."
She poured her spiritual energy into her voice and said loudly, "The Dongfeng family's recruitment is temporarily suspended. All registered cultivators should disperse and rest. The Dongfeng family will recruit new members on another day."
Gu Yue and the others were at the edge of the square, watching all this quietly, wondering what they were thinking?
Qing'er said, "That thunder explosion doesn't seem to be from a cultivator from this world."
Then she fell into deep thought.
Gu Yue said: "Xiao Xuan, what are you doing?"
Xiaoxuan hasn't appeared since he was showered by the spiritual rain. Gu Yue looked at his own space and found that there was something unusual happening in the space, as if some powerful force had erupted.
Bai Rui was jumping around nearby, saying in a baby voice, "Xiaoxuan looks so miserable! He's grown so much!"
Gu Yue was shocked.
Qing'er said, "Don't alarm him. His memory should be recovering. Wait a little longer."
Gu Yue also felt Xiao Xuan's discomfort at this moment. She had a splitting headache and her whole head felt like it was going to explode. She tried her best to endure it and couldn't help but scream out.
"Ah!" Then the dense pain attacked her head again, as if countless silver needles pierced into her brain, but strangely, a trace of warmth appeared in her heart.
She knew she needed to persevere. If she persisted a little longer, perhaps Xiaoxuan would remember what happened before.
Nie Zhou looked at Gu Yue, his face pale, cold sweat pouring down his head, his lips trembling, and he murmured unconsciously in a low voice: "Persist, persist, I must persist."
He looked at Qing'er and asked, "How can I help her?"
Qing'er supported Gu Yue and asked, "Is there any elixir that can restore spiritual consciousness?"
