The Prime Elder wasn’t too knowledgeable about what happened at Heaven’s Boundary.
Since Venerable Yun Ji had deliberately hidden it from him.
Luo Tian kept touching his bottom line. He was none other than Mount Hua Immortal Sect’s Leader yet Luo Tian spoke of him like a good for nothing. This made Venerable Yun Ji extremely annoyed.
——–
The grounds of Heaven’s Boundary.
A place where strong immortal force lingered and cranes soared through the sky.
The scene was like heaven appearing in the mortal realm, making everyone indulge in their senses and not wishing to leave.
It was because of this that people named it Heaven’s Boundary!
Which meant a place resembling the heavens.
At the outer edge of Heaven’s Boundary.
Han Hua, Yun Ling, and Yun Yi were covered in injuries. Their faces made them look like they were under some sort of illness.
Xu Shan’s injuries were even more serious, and lying down next to him was a person – Zhao Chen!
His face looked drained of blood and his breathing was very faint. His entire body was covered in blood and there were several long bloody scars noticeable on his face. His eyes stared off into the distance without any energy. He kept clenching his fists on and off while unwillingness plagued his heart.
“Elder Xu, junior brother Zhao… he…” Han Hua softly asked.
Xu Shan shook his head and replied: “His injuries are too serious, there’s nothing I can do. Who would’ve imagined that the people of Starsea Immortal Sect would be that vicious in their attacks? Using fatal moves the moment they step out? If Zhao Chen didn’t immediately use a defensive array to block it, most likely he would be dead already.”
Yun Ling was silently sobbing before saying: “Elder Xu, can you please find a way to save junior brother Zhao? He, he, he rushed to the front all because of me.”
Yun Yi also looked at Xu Shan with tears in her eyes and a begging look on her face.
Xu Shan hiddenly clenched his fists while the wrinkles on his forehead revealed his frown. He could only show his bitter expression while saying: “I’ve already done what I can. Unless Elder Tian Ling comes here and uses his top tier medicinal pills, only then can we save his life. But the Elders of Mount Hua Immortal Sect… sigh~…”
Speaking up to this point…
Xu Shan could only heavily sigh. He thought that it wouldn’t be long before Mount Hua Immortal Sect would send some people for reinforcement. What he never imagined was that not a single person came after he waited for half a month. This made his heart ache, and it also made it very clear that they had been abandoned.
This kind of immortal sect…
Was something Xu Shan hated the most.
“Fuuu~…”
Han Hua heavily exhaled before saying: “We should return to Mount Hua Immortal Sect.”
Immediately after…
Everyone became stunned.
Back then, they could’ve left Heaven’s Boundary embarrassingly with the rest of the Mount Hua Immortal Sect disciples, but Han Hua didn’t do that. The four of them clenched their teeth and endured the mocking so that they could cultivate as hard as they could.
She and the others were very clear that participating in Heaven’s Boundary was something Luo Tian had fought for them. So, they couldn’t let Luo Tian down.
Therefore…
No matter how those immortal sect disciples insulted and mocked them, they just continued enduring with all their might. All they tried to do was hide themselves at the outer edges of Heaven’s Boundary to absorb the faint immortal force. Even under such conditions, each of them still managed to make breakthroughs in their cultivation in just a short month.
Some Mount Hua Immortal Sect disciples were killed while some sustained heavy injuries. Some couldn’t endure these conditions anymore and ran back to Mount Hua Immortal Sect.
Han Hua never had thoughts of leaving.
This cultivation opportunity was something that didn’t come by easily, so they couldn’t waste it.
Ever since the other Mount Hua Immortal Sect disciples left, them four were the only ones left from the sect. Those other immortal sect disciples became even more arrogant in their ways and didn’t even put Xu Shan in their eyes at all.
Just yesterday…
Three Myriad Sword Immortal Sect disciples came to provoke them. They spoke some disgusting words to the group, especially towards the twins Yun Ling and Yun Yi. Their words were so obscene and dirty that Zhao Chen couldn’t hold back anymore.
The moment he took action, he was immediately attacked by all three of them in unison.
In less than a round, he was already seriously injured. Those three still didn’t let him off at that point and continued to land several heavy blows.
Han Hua and the others instantly made their move.
But…
It was an even more tragic outcome when they made their move because other immortal sect disciples jumped in to help the Myriad Sword Immortal Sect.
Those immortal sect disciples here were all the talented ones that had the focus grooming from their respective sects. Their cultivation realms were all above Han Hua and her group. And their cultivation area was the center of Heaven’s Boundary which had the thickest amount of immortal force. Their cultivation speed was obviously much faster than Han Hua’s group.
How could Han Hua and the others be their opponents?
“Senior, senior sister; we cannot leave. You still haven’t broken into the Profound Venerate realm yet. We cannot disappoint Team Leader. The price he had to pay for us to come to Heaven’s Boundary should be really huge. Otherwise, there’s no way Grand Elder would have agreed to it.” Zhao Chen’s breathing was faint while his voice was shaking.
Han Hua furrowed her brows and said: “Junior brother Zhao, you shouldn’t speak anymore. The opportunity to cultivate might be hard to come by, but your life is more important. I believe Team Leader will also agree with my choice.”
Yun Ling and Yun Yi both nodded their heads.
Xu Shan’s eyes tightened. He then clenched his teeth before saying: “I’m afraid we won’t be able to leave even if we wanted to. There’s no way they will let us reach the teleportation array and leave just like that. Their plan is to force us to our deaths.”
Their current location was the outer edges of Heaven’s Boundary while the teleportation array was at the center.
It was impossible for those immortal sect disciples to allow them to reach there that easily.
There was no way for them to escape now.
They could only wait for their deaths!
The eyes of everyone became even more depressed. Han Hua then clenched her fists before saying: “Elder Xu, can you bring junior brother Zhao and the others away? I will protect the rear for you guys.”
“No!”
“We too will protect the rear with you.”
“Yun Ling, Yun Yi; Team Leader is waiting for you two to return. You two cannot stay here and take risks.”
Just as they started arguing who was going to stay…
Several immortal sect disciples with perverted smiles walked over.
A large sword charging into the sky was sewn on their clothes. Out of the ten great immortal sects, they were the disciples of the 8th ranked Myriad Sword Immortal Sect.
“Yoh!”
“That piece of trash hasn’t died yet?”
“Senior brother, I think you’re way too benevolent. If it were up to me, I would’ve pierced his chest and not allow him to keep living in this world. It’s useless for trash like him to keep living anyway so he might as well just die already.”
“Third junior brother, you really don’t understand senior brother. That’s not called being benevolent and actually called being vicious. Do you see that trash’s painful expression? He’s been in pain since yesterday. Don’t you think it’s kind of fun to see him with such a painful expression?”
“Second senior brother, it looks like what you’ve said is right. I can’t help being happy when I see his painful expression, hahaha…”
The three of them started loudly mocking.
Xu Shan became angry and slowly got up. He then said: “Is there no one in Myriad Sword Immortal Sect that has taught you guys on how to be a decent human being?”
“Old bastard, it’s not your turn to manage how we act as humans.”
“What kind of old thing do you think you are?”
“Old bastard, you can make your move once more if you don’t like what’s happening. I welcome you anytime on the Heaven’s Boundary competition stage. I heard you are an outer sect Elder of Mount Hua Immortal Sect. If a piece of trash like you can become an Elder, it looks like Mount Hua Immortal Sect will take on any random cats and dogs.”
Xu Shan was clenching his teeth so hard that cracking sounds could be heard.
His anger surged into the sky while his face started turning red. He then scolded: “Presumptuous!”
Han Hua, Yun Ling, and Yun Yi all stood up.
One of the Myriad Sword Immortal Sect disciples stared at Yun Ling’s chest and started drooling. He then said with a perverted smile: “Little sister, your angry expression is really too attractive. Do you want to follow this big brother to have some fun? This big brother will guarantee that you will experience heavenly enjoyment.”
“Courting death!”
A shout containing cold killing intent was suddenly heard behind them!
