Chapter 737 - 112: Reunion with an Old Friend

Fairy Qiao agreed to the magical combat, and as the barrier formed, Dan Chenzi advanced with a fierce attack.

Previously, Dan Chenzi had been instructed by Zhao Zhiye to test by trading a Foundation Establishment Pill, but he only thought that Fairy Qiao could handle it, so he didn’t exert too much effort. The result, however, was not enough, so this time he naturally would not hold back.

In an instant, Dan Chenzi unleashed his secret magic technique from the bottom of the chest and even wielded a magical treasure.

By now, Fairy Qiao still couldn’t ascertain Zhao Zhiye’s intentions, but with someone as skilled as Elder Dong nearby, she dared not use the Earth Spirit Master’s power, and could only focus her mind to maneuver with conventional magical power. However, her cultivation level and magical treasures were inferior by a notch. Soon, she was at a disadvantage, facing imminent danger.

In just a few moves, her complexion turned pale, her breath unstable.

"Wait a moment!" Just as she was almost unable to hold on, a loud shout echoed.

The place was already close to Feihong Immortal City, a necessary path to and from the city. As the conflict erupted, more and more onlookers gathered around.

And this shout came from within the crowd of onlookers.

Before the words had even fallen, two figures quickly approached.

"Elder Xiao, Fairy Yunyao." Upon recognizing the newcomers, Zhang Zhiwei rejoiced and hurriedly welcomed them.

Qin Chuan also showed a shocked expression.

"Fellow Daoists, I am Xiao Changfeng from Biyun Sect in Celestial Cyan Domain. What exactly happened here? How did it come to this?" Xiao Changfeng nodded to Zhang Zhiwei and Qin Chuan, and then clasped his hands toward the Business Alliance’s Law Enforcement Honored Guest Elder and Zhao Zhiye.

"Biyun Sect?" Zhao Zhiye glanced at Xiao Changfeng, only in the Early Period of Core Formation, and immediately dismissed him with indifference.

"True Man Xiao, what do you mean by this? Why interfere with the magical combat?" The Business Alliance’s Law Enforcement Honored Guest Elder cast a glance at Xiao Changfeng, slightly frowning.

"Fellow Daoist, please understand, I was merely passing by and happened to see fellow Daoists from my Cangyun State in magical combat with others, so I intervened hastily, I beg your pardon. Besides, Fairy Qiao is an old acquaintance of mine, and I cannot ignore this, so I came to understand the situation." Though Xiao Changfeng was in the Early Period of Core Formation, his long-standing Station at Biyun Sect gave him considerable status, and he did not allow himself to be undermined, having been invited here.

The Law Enforcement Honored Guest Elder looked at him again, considered briefly, and then recounted the matter.

Meanwhile, Qin Chuan and Zhang Zhiwei added their own explanations from the side.

After listening, Xiao Changfeng’s expression instantly darkened. He naturally believed Qiao and her companions, but upon sensing Zhao Zhiye’s Magical Power at the Middle Stage of Core Formation, he suppressed his anger and clasped his hands toward Zhao Zhiye and the Business Alliance’s Law Enforcement Honored Guest Elder, his tone as earnest as possible: "I understand the character of Fellow Daoist Qin and his companions. This is surely a misunderstanding.

However, since we are all here at the invitation of the Business Alliance, there’s really no need to harm our harmony. Why not settle this peacefully? I, Xiao Changfeng, will mediate for Fellow Daoist Qin.

No matter the previous reasons, let the Foundation Establishment Pill return to its original owner, and the Spirit Stones spent, return only two thousand, let the rest be a gesture to invite Fellow Daoist Zhao for a cup of Spirit Wine.

I hope Fellow Daoist Zhao can show me some respect. When you visit the Celestial Cyan Domain, the entire Sect will surely welcome you with open arms, how does that sound?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Zhiye sneered openly, revealing unabashed contempt: "Biyun Sect? Celestial Cyan Domain?" He shook his head, "Taoist Friend Xiao, even if it’s your Celestial Cyan Domain head personally, in this Ten Thousand Merchants Domain, in front of my Tiandu Zhao Family, what does it matter? This matter is well-documented, fellow Daoists of the Business Alliance will judge fairly. You better not meddle unwantedly and embarrass yourself."

Xiao Changfeng, hearing this, turned red, short of breath, yet felt a deep sense of powerlessness. The absolute disparity in strength and background rendered his "face" insignificant.

He attempted several times to speak again but failed to find words.

"Ha~ what an overblown tone from this fellow Daoist! Is my Celestial Cyan Domain so insignificant in your eyes?" Suddenly, a soft scoff came from the crowd.

Then, a scarlet escape light instantly shot over.

In the next moment, as the escape light gathered, a graceful figure landed lightly.

"Blood Spirit Saintess!" Xiao Changfeng and the others paused.

The Blood Spirit Sect had rooted itself in Celestial Cyan Domain, and since the former Blood Spirit Saintess assumed the position after the previous Blood Spirit Holy Mother perished decades ago, she had been immersed in cultivation, not interfering much in Domain affairs.

Yet the Blood Spirit Sect’s foundation was indeed unmatched versus Corpse Puppet Sect.

Moreover, the shadow of Fairy Yunyao, Xiao Changfeng’s Dao companion, being imprisoned by the Blood Spirit Sect for years made them dread and resent the Sect.

In particular, as per Zhang Zhiwei, Fairy Qiao, and others, Li Ping’an got stuck in the Blood Spirit Sect to rescue Fairy Yunyao. Although how he eventually escaped to Yellow Heaven Domain was unknown, their resentment toward the Blood Spirit Sect lingered.

This time, it was unfathomable the other party took the initiative to intervene.

Blood Spirit Sect! A giant in the Demon Dao of the Boundless Domain! Zhao Zhiye’s expression changed slightly, and some of the disdain receded as he clasped his hands: "So it’s the Blood Spirit Sect Leader, forgive my disrespect, my previous words were not aimed at Celestial Cyan Domain, I apologize and seek your pardon."

Blood Kite scanned the vicinity, failing to find the ’master’ who had long lost traces over decades, showing slight disappointment.

Her gaze finally swept over Fairy Qiao before turning to Zhao Zhiye again: "In that case, let’s drop this matter. Consider the Foundation Establishment Pill as your apology."

"Hmm? What does Blood Spirit Saintess mean by this?" Zhao Zhiye was slightly surprised. The Boundless Domain’s intrusion into Celestial Cyan Domain naturally made them and the initial Sect forces unlikely to be close.

More shocked were Xiao Changfeng and his companions.

They incredulously looked at Blood Kite, unable to fathom why she would help them.

"I merely passed by and couldn’t bear witnessing this," Blood Spirit Saintess said casually.

"This..." The situation subtly shifted due to the Blood Spirit Saintess’s intervention, leaving Zhao Zhiye momentarily unsure of how to decide, turning his head to Elder Dong.
