Chapter 2262: Chapter 2260: [They Will Not Back Down]

Affection!

Loyalty!

In this martial arts world, they are truly precious because the martial arts world is reckless and cruel without reason, it’s terrifying. Everyone struggles for their fate, fights under the rules of the martial arts world. Killing others grants more cultivation resources and greater power. This is a widely known rule that makes people distrust and act ruthlessly!

However, this doesn’t mean the martial arts world is truly heartless. It depends on who and what!

Sang Qing is a compassionate and benevolent martial artist. Even though she is powerful, she doesn’t bully the weak. Despite the Flying Flower Zen Temple’s strength, it doesn’t oppress the weak. She set a precedent in the Barbaric Forbidden Land, accepting female disciples from other legacies, which was genuine kindness, imparting her lifetime absolute skills and understanding of the Taoism!

Seeing these outside female disciples leave after learning, Sang Qing wasn’t disappointed or regretted her decision. Instead, she was delighted because among these fifty female disciples, some were extremely talented and might surpass her. These individuals were Qin Mu, Mo Qin, and Peng Yan. When the Flying Flower Zen Temple was in peril, they defied their original legacies’ objections, gathered the sisters who studied at the Zen Temple to guard this crumbling legacy!

At this time, the first, second, and third Northern State Elders stood together, glaring ferociously at Princess Zi Xuan and others, seething with anger. They had the upper hand, able to annihilate the female disciples of the Zen Temple soon. Unexpectedly, such a group of female cultivators appeared, all with significant cultivation realms, vowing to protect the Zen Temple at all costs, causing a major obstacle!

"Sect Leader, please lead these injured sisters away first!" Qin Mu said after glancing at the battle.

"But..." Princess Zi Xuan said worriedly.

"Sect Leader, now’s not the time to fight. The power of the five Northern State Elders is overwhelming, we can only hold them!" Mo Qin nodded. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ

"The immediate priority is getting these injured sisters to safety, otherwise, they may be caught in the battle and die!" Peng Yan added earnestly.

"Alright, I will take them away first, I’ll come back for you!" Princess Zi Xuan thought briefly and nodded.

However, when Princess Zi Xuan finished speaking, Qin Mu, Mo Qin, and Peng Yan, the three high cultivation female cultivators, shook their heads, looking at Princess Zi Xuan with a solemn gaze. Qin Mu said, "Sect Leader, once you leave with the sisters, don’t come back!"

"Why?" Princess Zi Xuan asked, not understanding.

"Our trio can only fight the first, second, and third Northern State Elders. The other sisters can support from the side, but can’t join the battle, not to mention the fourth and fifth Northern State Elders, whose strength is unfathomable, posing great danger," Mo Qin analyzed.

"We came here to protect your safety, to ensure your safe departure. We can hardly kill the five Northern State Elders. It’s crucial to see the truth and address things rationally," Peng Yan nodded.

Princess Zi Xuan paused; she was profoundly touched, knowing the Northern State Elders’ power. They’re formidable in the elder martial realm, a combined force that could terrify legacies. Though knowing the danger, the sisters who studied at the Zen Temple still came to protect the fragmented legacy out of affection and loyalty!

Indeed, as Qin Mu, Mo Qin, and Peng Yan stated, although dozens of female cultivators with noteworthy cultivation levels came, there remains a gap compared to the five Northern State Elders. They’re ruthless, attacking with slaughter, and only those like the trio of sisters with significant strength can withstand them. The other female cultivators can only assist, as joining would only lead to annihilation!

Crucially, the fourth and fifth Northern State Elders possess immeasurable strength. No one here can withstand them. If they unleash their ruthlessness, it’ll be disastrous. Thus, the crisis at the Zen Temple isn’t resolved by these female cultivators arriving; it’s as dangerous, if not more!

"Understood, I’ll lead the sisters away; the rest is up to you!" Princess Zi Xuan realized she must not hesitate, which could spell doom for the already injured sisters and those who came to aid!

Then, Princess Zi Xuan gathered the over twenty injured sisters and led them toward safety. The first, second, and third Northern State Elders wanted to intercept but were blocked by Qin Mu, Mo Qin, and Peng Yan. Their cultivation levels matched. Achieving instant victory was no easy feat!

Crash!

After Princess Zi Xuan evacuated with the injured sisters, the battle zone was surrounded by other slightly lower cultivation sisters, who all wielded their longswords, enclosing the five Northern State Elders, Qin Mu, Mo Qin, Peng Yan, including Ye Tianchen, preventing them from intercepting Princess Zi Xuan and others!

"You really want to die!" the first Northern State Elder shouted at Qin Mu.

"Think Flying Flower Zen Temple is unprotected? The ones courting death are you!" Qin Mu retorted coldly.

"Humph, you’ve left the Zen Temple, no longer its disciples, why wade into this danger?" the second Northern State Elder sneered at Mo Qin.

"Really? You’re old soon-to-be-dead men, not much life left, why seek futile struggle? Enjoy your final days peacefully!" Mo Qin responded with a calm smile.

"Flying Flower Zen Temple’s legacy will be eradicated, no one can save it. Defying us means opposing the legacies behind us. Imagine the consequences..." the third Northern State Elder threatened brutally.

"Heh, despicable Northern State Elders, attacking our Zen Temple without shame. Think we’ll fear you? Refusing to retreat and battling means opposing Peng Yan and the legacies behind us; imagine those consequences..." Peng Yan counter-threatened.

Kill!

Words aren’t needed; it’s slaughter upon disagreement. The five Northern State Elders won’t retreat lightly, aiming to destroy the Zen Temple for gains. They can’t lose face now, not in the Barbaric Forbidden Land!

For Qin Mu, Mo Qin, and Peng Yan, retreat is impossible. No way will they yield, nor will the surrounding female cultivators protecting the Zen Temple. Knowing the dire events and outcomes, realizing the horrifying consequences, they still charged forward for affection and loyalty, willing to face brutal battle and annihilation!

Qin Mu, Mo Qin, and Peng Yan are the strongest among the female cultivators aiding the Zen Temple, possessing Mid-stage Martial Saint cultivation. They can individually fight the first, second, and third Northern State Elders. The battle started fiercely, with every move lethal!

At this point, Princess Zi Xuan had led the injured sisters out, as the five Northern State Elders were held back. She had this chance but worried about someone—Ye Tianchen!

High above, Ye Tianchen faced the fourth and fifth Northern State Elders alone, a dangerous and deadly aura constantly surrounded him...
