The Sky River Branch’s request was directly rejected by the Wildlands ‘Ashhaze Race.
“The disciple you are looking for is not here.”
The experts of the Canglan Clan seemed to have received instructions from Clan Leader Canglan Tie to detain Xue Yeyu and all the people related to him first. They would then slowly examine and interrogate them later. Therefore, they were not polite to the people of the Heavenly River and denied it outright.
“This is not a place where you should be impudent. Leave immediately, or we won’t be polite.” The leader of the Azure Haze Race said.
When the white-robed elder from the Tianhe camp saw this, his snow-white eyebrows immediately raised.
He didn’t say it twice and slashed at the people from the Azure Haze Race.
There were many battles between the experts of the Desolate Mountains, and their methods were bloody and cruel.
The king of the Wilderness, Wolong Sha, was listed as one of the top ten experts of the Red Dust Devil Dao. In recent years, he and the Wilderness under his rule had gradually begun to have the intention of expanding north.
In the Heavenly River’s perspective, the other party could also be considered a demonic path.
It was just that the two sides rarely had direct conflicts before. Everyone had other opponents, so there was no real battle.
However, against such an enemy, the people of the Heavenly River would not hesitate to fight.
Since they couldn’t come to an agreement, then they would see the truth under the sword.
For the Sky River Descendant, he was always fearless in such a situation.
The white-robed elder waved his sword, and the other Sky River disciples immediately followed suit.
In an instant, the galaxy was vast and the sun and moon rose and fell.
Under the rotation of the stars, the dense sword qi covered the sky and covered the earth. It instantly enveloped the surrounding area and swept all the opponents in front of him.
The experts of the Wildlands ‘Ashhaze Race were prepared for this. They didn’t waste any time and started to fight.
The two sides instantly engaged in a battle.
Xue Yeyu didn’t take the opportunity to escape immediately, but he didn’t join the battle either.
As he adjusted his breathing and suppressed his injuries, his eyes flickered as he carefully observed the battle.
Chen Luoyang looked at the battlefield from afar and didn’t have any intention of rushing to attack. Instead, he was watching with great interest.
In general, in terms of individual strength, the Sky River disciples were still better.
The Heavenly River Inheritance had always been an elite route. It emphasized quality over quantity, and it was very dependent on the talent of the person who learned the sword.
In the various holy lands of the mortal world, the Two Rivers Sword Dao was rarely seen and only had direct descendants.
Compared to the other holy lands, the Heavenly River lineage had a much smaller population.
Anyone who could become a disciple of the Celestial River Sect must have outstanding talent in the way of the sword. One in a million.
This was something that even the enemies of the Heavenly River had always acknowledged.
Chen Luoyang had fought with many direct disciples of the Heavenly River, such as Yang Xuan and Gao Nanzhai. Among martial artists of the same realm, they were all superior even when compared to the direct disciples of other Holy Lands.
On the other hand, the average strength of the Azure Haze Race was obviously inferior to the Sky River Branch.
It was true that the Azure Haze Clan was one of the strongest clans in the Wilderness. However, in terms of heritage of martial arts, selection of talents, and accumulation of material resources, they were all inferior to the Heavenly River, the holy land of swordsmanship.
Perhaps it should be said that only the entire Wildlands could match the celestial river.
Furthermore, it had to be the Wilderness with the tribe leader, Wolong Sha, and the queen, Qing Kongsang.
Before ‘Overlord’ Wolong Sha rose up and unified the Wilderness, the Wilderness had no leader. It was impossible for it to compete with the behemoths on the level of the holy land.
The rise of the tribe leader not only allowed the Wilderness to have their own powerful figures, but it also meant that they could integrate their own resources. When dealing with the outside world, they wouldn’t be at a disadvantage like before, and they could fight for more benefits and a more comfortable environment for development.
On the other hand, while the tribe leader was ambitious, he was also broad-minded and was willing to guide the other experts of the Wilderness.
With the care of such a Martial Honor, Tian Fengyi, Yu Shanming, Canglan Tie, and the other top experts of the Wilderness benefited from their own cultivation.
And they could also take care of and guide their own clansmen, nurturing promising young talents.
In the past hundred years, the number of experts that had emerged in the Wildlands was clearly higher than in the past.
In the long run, the Wilderness would naturally become stronger.
However, even so, facing the Sky River lineage, the Wilderness seemed to be a little weak.
Even though the legacy martial arts of the Azure Haze Clan were exquisite, it was inevitable that they would lose their confidence in front of the Heavenly Sword Book of Tian He.
Canglan Tie’s strength was due to his talent, comprehension, and opportunities that far exceeded ordinary people. He was even more talented than many geniuses.
However, no matter how hard he tried to manage the Azure Mist Race, it was impossible for every clansman to reach his level.
Thus, when the people of the Azure Haze Clan faced the Sky River Descendant, it was inevitable that they would suffer losses in terms of individual strength.
Fortunately, this was the Wilderness, their home ground.
The Sky River Branch couldn’t send all their experts to the Wilderness, so their numbers were limited.
The individual strength of the Azure Haze Race was inferior, but they could make up for it with numbers.
They were also familiar with the environment here, so they could use some of the local phenomena to create a strange array to help them fight against the Sky River Descendant.
It was just like how someone had used the power of the formation to create a cage to stop Yan Mingkong and Taoist Banhai.
With the help of the geographical advantage and the advantage of numbers, the Ashhaze Race was able to fight evenly with the Heavenly River Descendant. Neither side could do anything to the other.
If not for that, Xue Yeyu would not have stayed in place so calmly and quietly.
He sat cross-legged on the ground.
Xie Xingmang, who was dressed in black, had his eyes tightly shut. He had lost consciousness and was lying on the grass nearby.
In the Heavenly River camp, Tao WangJi and Si Huaifei looked at Xie Xingmang anxiously.
They wanted to move forward, but there were experts from the Azure Haze Race blocking them. They could only focus their attention on the opponent in front of them.
However, Shi Jing was nowhere to be seen.
Chen Luoyang watched from afar. He wasn’t anxious or impatient and was filled with patience.
He naturally knew where Shi Jing had gone, and he also knew that the other party would appear soon, so he was not in a hurry.
Cult Master Chen even had the time to observe Tao WangJi and Si Huaifei fighting.
More than half a year ago, during the great battle of the Heavenly River and the Blood River, he had seen Tao WangJi fight. He knew that Tao WangJi had also improved after coming to the Mortal Dust World, breaking through his original shackles and reaching the acme of perfection, successfully reaching the fifteenth realm.
However, he was already a little old, and his blood essence had fallen.
It was almost impossible for him to break through to the 16th level of the Martial Saint Realm.
It was already a blessing to be able to break through to the 15th Realm. He had to thank his years of hard work. Returning to the Heavenly River and entering the mortal world was a great opportunity that had come late, allowing him to finally take a step forward.
However, the fourteenth to fifteenth realms were still the Martial Emperor Realm after all. It was another level of difficulty to break through to the Martial Saint Realm. With Tao WangJi’s situation, there was almost no hope.
Of course, he had always been indifferent to his own encounters, and he might not mind it that much.
Whether he could save Xie Xingmang and whether Xie Xingmang had fallen into the Devil Dao was what worried him the most.
On the other hand, the average strength of the Azure Haze Race was obviously inferior to the Sky River Branch.
The other party was already a Martial Emperor at the 14th level, not inferior to his master Tao WangJi back in the Divine Lands.
Si Huaifei was the same as Su Ye. They had both broken through from the 12th level Martial King Realm to the 13th level Martial Emperor Realm in the Divine Lands last year.
His Zhongtian Righteous Sword was calm and grand. It was indestructible and firm at the same time. Compared to Su Ye, who took the unconventional path, it could be said that he was brilliant for a moment.
Returning to the Heavenly River lineage with Tao WangJi also allowed his Sword Dao to make another leap, successfully breaking through to the fourteenth realm.
His opportunities naturally weren’t as many as Chen Luoyang, Yan Mingkong, Su Ye, and the others. Such a speed of improvement could be said to be rare.
Chen Luoyang had observed him using his sword. He already had the appearance of an outstanding successor of the Heavenly River, and he wasn’t inferior to those secular geniuses who had joined the Heavenly River since
young.
Normally speaking, if he continued to develop like this, he believed that the Heavenly River would pour more and more resources into him. In the future, he had the hope of becoming another legendary sword master of the Heavenly River.
Of course, this still needed time.
Right now, he needed to face the siege of the Azure Mist Race with his fellow disciples of the Sky River Sect.
As time passed, more and more people from the Canglan tribe came to help from all directions.
The people of the Heavenly River were fearless. Although the other party had the advantage in numbers, it was not enough to threaten them.
The problem was that it had become an extravagant hope for them to get past the defense line of the experts of the Azure Haze Race to take down Xue Yeyu and take back Xie Xingmang.
However, the people of the Heavenly River did not have any intention of giving up. They kept attacking the enemy’s defense line with overwhelming momentum.
Chen Luoyang was watching the show from afar when his heart suddenly stirred.
Almost at this moment, the situation changed.
A ball of hazy moonlight suddenly lit up near Blood Night Rain.
Under the moonlight, the cold sword Qi shot out in all directions, as if a clap of thunder had sounded on the ground.
The experts of the Azure Haze Race were all shocked.
Someone had sneaked past their line of defense and approached Blood Night Rain to dispel the starlight.
After a brief moment of shock, everyone immediately reacted. It was an expert from the Illusory Moon branch in the Heavenly River. His sword will was like a cloud that covered the moon, hiding in the invisible.
The fierce attacks of the other people of the Heavenly River, which seemed to be risking their lives, put too much pressure on the people of the Azure Haze Race, making them unable to divert their attention.
In the end, that moonlight-like sword qi suddenly appeared, like clouds breaking through the moon.
By the time everyone realized what was going on, the sword will had already arrived beside Xue Yeyu.
At this moment, the first person to react was Xue Yeyu, who was busy healing his injuries.
There was no other reason. Elder Blood River had dealt with people from the Heavenly River for a lifetime, so he had a deep understanding of the ability of the Heavenly River Sword Principle, far above the others.
Although he was recuperating, he was also observing the battlefield and guarding against the sneak attack of the experts of the Illusory Moon of the Heavenly River.
Thus, when the sword energy in the moonlight slashed down, Blood Night Rain immediately attacked.
A blood-red light suddenly rose up and blocked the moonlight-like sword Qi.
At the same time, Xue Yeyu reached out and dragged Xie Xingmang away.
Another hand reached out from the moonlight and grabbed nothing..
