Chapter 1277 Many Doubts
"Do you think the Sect Master doesn't want to use force? This kid is being hunted down by several Immortal Emperors personally. There must be some unknown secrets involved.
If force is used, who can guarantee that this matter will be foolproof? If there is even the slightest negligence, who can withstand the wrath of several Immortal Emperors?
"Okay, since the Sect Master has asked us to do this, there must be a reason behind it, so we just have to do as he says." Xingyao explained.
Lu Chen soaked his body in the spring water, feeling the new power in his body.
The power of his body refining technique after breaking through to the Dao Body Realm made him feel unprecedented confidence and joy.
Every inch of skin and every muscle seemed to have been reforged, full of vitality and vigor.
However, while enjoying this joy, Lu Chen's gaze involuntarily fell on the Haoyue Fairy Spring.
This spring water is not only crystal clear, but also contains powerful law power. It is a rare treasure for practitioners.
A trace of greed flashed through Lu Chen's mind, wanting to take some of the spring water away. But soon, he felt something was wrong.
Just because when he was thinking, an obscure spiritual consciousness quietly passed through his heart, like an invisible hand gently touching his soul.
Lu Chen immediately became alert. He quickly calmed his mind and carefully sensed the surrounding atmosphere.
Sure enough, there was a very obscure spiritual consciousness watching him. Although the other party did not show any hostility, the strength of this power made Lu Chen dare not be careless at all.
"It should be a high-ranking member of the Haoyue Emperor Sect." Lu Chen guessed secretly in his heart. He knew that the person who could possess such a hidden and powerful spiritual consciousness must have a cultivation level of at least the middle stage of Taiqing Xuanxian Realm.
In front of this realm, even if he had broken through to the Dao Body Realm, he still had no confidence in defeating the opponent. Thinking of this, Lu Chen decisively gave up the idea of taking the spring water away.
He knew that if he really started fighting, he would be noticed and stopped before he even got close to the spring.
Moreover, offending a strong man in the middle stage of Taiqing Xuanxian Realm or above is undoubtedly seeking death.
With a hint of regret, Lu Chen flew away from the Haoyue Immortal Spring. The moment he left the water, the powerful immortal energy circulated, and the water stains on his body were swept away.
Then, Lu Chen took out a set of clothes from the storage ring and put them on quickly.
Just as Lu Chen was getting dressed, Ye Ying and Xing Yao appeared from the darkness. Their faces were solemn, as if they had something important to tell Lu Chen.
"Brother Lu, we've received news that several great emperors are collaborating to find you. They've even issued an Immortal Emperor Order. You've become a highly sought-after figure in the Immortal Realm."
Ye Ying spoke first, his voice low and rapid. His words made the air around them seem to freeze.
"Yes," Xingyao added, "According to our understanding, these emperors include Ao Tian, the leader of the Dragon Clan."
Hearing this, Lu Chen raised his brows slightly. After thinking for a moment, he realized that Ao Tian must be forcing the human emperor to hand himself over because of the Chaos Tree.
However, if that’s the case, why didn’t the Haoyue Emperor Sect reveal their information, but instead chose to tell it directly?
Thoughts flashed through Lu Chen's mind, but he pretended to be shocked on the surface and said, "Oh? There is such a thing. No, I have to leave here quickly to avoid causing unnecessary trouble to your clan."
"That's not necessary. You are an honored guest of our Haoyue Imperial Sect. The Sect Master has already ordered that anyone who knows your whereabouts must practice in seclusion and not step out of the sect.
So you can just stay in my Haoyue Imperial Sect and wait for ten days or so, and then we'll go to the exchange conference together." Xingyao hurriedly explained.
Hearing this, Lu Chen's doubts grew even stronger, so he decided to say, "Brother Yeying, Brother Xingyao, I will never forget your kindness, but I have an unwelcome request, so I beg for your help."
"Brother Lu, we hit it off right away. There's no need to be so polite. Please feel free to speak." Ye Ying looked at Lu Chen and said.
Lu Chen smiled slightly and said, "I hope to meet your sect leader. I have some questions I would like to ask him in person. Otherwise, I am afraid I will not bother your sect anymore."
Yeying and Xingyao looked at each other after hearing this, as if they were communicating silently.
After a moment, Ye Ying nodded and said, "Since Brother Lu has this request, we will do our best to satisfy it. Please follow us."
…………
The two men took Lu Chen through the intricate corridors and courtyards of the Haoyue Emperor Sect, and finally arrived in front of a magnificent hall.
The door of the main hall is towering into the clouds, and a faint spiritual aura hangs around it, as if this is a fairyland isolated from the world.
"Brother Lu, please come in." Ye Ying said softly, "The sect leader is already waiting for you inside."
After entering the hall, he found that the decoration here was simple yet solemn. Several ancient calligraphy and paintings were hung on the walls. In the center was an exquisite wooden table, and behind it sat a middle-aged monk dressed like a scholar.
This man was about forty years old, with a thin face and gentle and deep eyes. His temperament was like a quiet lake, giving people a feeling of tranquility and far-reachingness - it was Ye Wenxuan, the current leader of the Haoyue Emperor Sect.
As Lu Chen entered, the middle-aged monk who was fiddling with the teacup paused for a moment, then slowly raised his head.
His gaze was like a calm lake, without any ripples, but when his eyes fell on Lu Chen, it seemed as if he could penetrate his body and take in everything about him.
The middle-aged cultivator looked Lu Chen up and down, with a barely perceptible glint of admiration in his eyes.
He smiled slightly, and that smile was like the warm sunshine in spring, making people feel warm and comfortable. Then he said, "Are you Lu Chen? You are indeed young and promising. Come on, come on, sit down and talk."
Upon hearing this, Lu Chen hurried forward a few steps, walked in front of the middle-aged cultivator, and bowed, saying, "Junior Lu Chen, greets the Sect Master."
Ye Wenxuan smiled and nodded, motioning Lu Chen to sit on a chair beside him.
At the same time, he gently raised his palm, and saw a steaming teacup, as if held by an invisible hand, slowly flew up from the table, then stopped steadily in front of Lu Chen, and automatically hovered there.
Seeing this, Lu Chen couldn't help but secretly marvel at the sect master's profound cultivation. After thanking the sect master, he picked up the teacup and took a sip. He felt the fragrance of the tea overflowing and refreshing.
After Lu Chen put down the teacup, Ye Wenxuan asked, "I heard that you wanted to see me. I wonder what it is for?"
Lu Chen took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and then answered the questions in his mind one by one.
He spoke at a moderate speed and clearly, and every question he asked hit the nail on the head, clearly after careful consideration...
