Chapter 1014: Ji Tianfu Takes Action!
The person who appeared was dressed in a light blue robe with a golden belt around his waist. He appeared to be a middle-aged man.
With his arrival, a strong, oppressive aura filled the space. The aura of the Yuan Emperor Realm spread out, directly suppressing the two elderly men!
“Sect Leader Ji!”
Upon seeing this figure, Su Yi, who was about to open the mysterious space, froze in place.
How could he not recognize the person who had suddenly shown up? It was none other than Ji Tianfu, the sect leader of the Mysterious Sword Gate.
Without wasting any time, Ji Tianfu immediately struck out with two swift palm strikes. The movements were simple and straightforward, landing directly on the chests of the two old men in the Yuan Void Realm.
“Poof…”
“Poof…”
With two dull sounds, the two elderly men exploded into a mist of blood, completely obliterated!
In the face of a Yuan Emperor Realm cultivator, the Yuan Void Realm cultivation was powerless!
“You are… you are…”
Not far off, the three remaining individuals were stunned, eyes wide in fear, almost wetting themselves.
Some had seen the leader of the Mysterious Sword Gate, Ji Tianfu, before. How could they not panic seeing him now?
“Die!”
However, Ji Tianfu didn’t bother to say anything further. A cold voice rang out as his figure appeared in front of the three people.
With three muffled sounds, the trio was turned into mist and perished!
“Truly worthy of the Yuan Emperor Realm!”
Su Yi watched all of this, stunned, unable to respond immediately.
“Stop staring, let’s go!”
Ji Tianfu quickly appeared beside Su Yi, grabbing his arm and pulling him away without a word. They disappeared in the blink of an eye, leaving no trace behind.
Soon after their departure, three figures arrived swiftly from the distance and stopped.
If Su Yi had still been there, he would have recognized these figures as powerful Yuan Emperor Realm members of the Golden Sword Sect, with Yang Baikun among them.
“Swoosh…”
Yang Baikun and his companions had just arrived and were about to speak when the air suddenly shook.
Five figures quickly appeared, standing in two groups. These were the five elders of the Seven Star Sword Sect, who had previously guarded the mine.
“The person who sent the message was from my Golden Sword Sect, and now they are all dead!”
Yang Baikun’s face darkened, his expression almost dripping with anger.
“There are several strong individuals around that kid. It’s understandable that they couldn’t stop him!”
The elder from the Seven Star Sword Sect, leading the group, spoke coldly, continuing, “That brat can’t have gotten far. Go after him!”
Ignoring Yang Baikun and the others from the Golden Sword Sect, the elder once again led the warriors of the Seven Star Sword Sect to chase after them.
“I don’t believe you can escape the pursuit of the Golden Sword Sect and the Seven Star Sword Sect!”
Yang Baikun’s eyes turned icy, clenching his fists tightly as he swore, “If I don’t tear you apart, I, Yang Baichuan, will never live as a human!”
With a wave of his hand, he and his companions set off to follow the faint traces of energy.
Some time later, the leader of the Seven Star Sword Sect, Ran Jianxuan, and another Yuan Emperor Realm figure appeared here. Many other powerful members from both sects arrived, but they quickly continued their pursuit.
Meanwhile, Su Yi, led by Ji Tianfu, arrived at an open area.
A group of people had gathered there. Su Yi scanned the area and saw about a dozen young disciples with the Mysterious Sword Gate insignia, including Ji Hanluo.
A few older individuals, clearly experienced experts of the Mysterious Sword Gate, were also present.
“Thank you, Sect Leader Ji, for saving me!”
After understanding the situation, Su Yi expressed his gratitude immediately, as Ji Tianfu had led him to safety.
He still couldn’t grasp why Ji Tianfu had appeared just in time to help him.
Thanks to Ji Tianfu’s intervention, Su Yi didn’t have to call on the Green Emperor and others to eliminate those people, and he managed to escape from his pursuers!
Even though Su Yi didn’t feel particularly close to Ji Tianfu, he appreciated the timely help.
“You really know how to stir up trouble, making such a big scene!”
Ji Tianfu glanced at him with a slight smile, adding, “But the person you should really thank isn’t me!”
His eyes briefly flicked to the figure standing beside him, his smile a little mischievous.
“Dad!”
Ji Hanluo’s face flushed red. She shot an angry look at Ji Tianfu, then turned to Su Yi, her shyness clear. She asked seriously, “Are you okay, Su Yi?”
Ji Hanluo blinked her bright eyes. Though she tried to mask it, Su Yi could still sense the care behind her gaze.
At that moment, Su Yi still had his changed appearance. Ji Hanluo had been staring at him for quite some time. Only when Ji Tianfu spoke and Su Yi’s voice confirmed his identity did she realize it was truly Su Yi in front of her!
“Thank you, Miss Hanluo. I’m fine!”
Su Yi smiled gently, feeling warmth in his chest.
Since their first encounter in the Chaos Realm, Su Yi and Ji Hanluo had only met once before, when they had been chased by Yang Baikun not long ago.
But those brief encounters had left a strong impression on Su Yi.
When the maid had died before his eyes, Su Yi could tell that Ji Hanluo’s grief was sincere.
Later, when the Sea Dragon Gang was pursuing them, Ji Hanluo had even told Su Yi to escape while she stayed behind to hold off their pursuers.
Not long ago, when Su Yi killed the Guardian of the Golden Sword Sect, Ji Hanluo had likely kept that secret too.
Otherwise, Yang Baikun wouldn’t have been tricked into fighting the Soul Devouring Emperor!
And today, it seemed Ji Tianfu had acted to save him because of Ji Hanluo?
“I’m glad you’re okay!”
Ji Hanluo smiled brightly, her eyes sparkling.
The young girl’s hair fluttered in the breeze, and her face still carried a hint of innocence, though her beauty was already beginning to show.
“Alright, we’ll talk later. The Golden Sword Sect and the Seven Star Sword Sect will likely find us soon! You just need to pretend to be a disciple of my Mysterious Sword Gate. As long as you don’t reveal your identity, they won’t be too disrespectful in front of me!”
Ji Tianfu gave his daughter a deep look before turning to Su Yi, his expression serious. “The Golden Sword Sect and the Mysterious Sword Gate are joining forces?”
Su Yi was shocked, as he hadn’t considered this. Only now did Ji Tianfu inform him.
It seemed that those two major sects were truly enraged and had formed an alliance to target him.
This was the Chaos Realm. Although there might not have been a deep rivalry between the Seven Star Sword Sect and the Golden Sword Sect, they were certainly in fierce competition with each other.
The fact they had put aside their differences only meant one thing: Su Yi had caused a huge stir, prompting both sects to seek his death!
On the other hand, the presence of such powerful individuals around Su Yi likely made both sects fearful.
“The people who blocked you before were from the Golden Sword Sect. But they’ve gotten smarter, disguising themselves as wanderers. There are quite a few of them around here.”
Ji Tianfu explained further, “Many wanderers nearby have already heard the news and left. Only those who are brave or powerful remain.”
Upon hearing this, Su Yi finally understood something.
His attempt to cook meat and stew soup earlier had been to draw out the few people and make it easier to slip past the Yuan Emperor Realm cultivators of the Seven Star Sword Sect.
To his surprise, however, his true motives were revealed after just a few words. There had been another reason for his actions.
Most of the wanderers had left because they didn’t want to be caught up in the conflict. Those who stayed behind must have had strong abilities or been part of organized sects.
Su Yi had been unaware of this while enjoying his meal. His plans were exposed, which is no surprise since his true intentions were apparent.
“So that’s how it is!”
Su Yi smiled bitterly. It seemed his luck was truly poor. He had met only a few people along the way, and with news being blocked, he ran into those Golden Sword Sect members.
Luckily, Ji Tianfu had appeared in time, or things could have turned serious.
“They’re here!”
Suddenly, Ji Tianfu looked up and gazed into the distance.
A group of more than ten figures was flying toward them, rapidly closing in.
Su Yi sensed the fluctuation and recognized that those were likely Yuan Emperor Realm cultivators from the Golden Sword Sect and Seven Star Sword Sect.
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…”
As Ji Tianfu had predicted, more than ten figures soon arrived. Each one radiated a terrifying Yuan Emperor Realm aura, overwhelming the area.
The Mysterious Sword Gate disciples present were all shaken.
Su Yi scanned the crowd and quickly recognized familiar faces, including powerful members of the Seven Star Sword Sect and the Golden Sword Sect.
“Ji Tianfu, why is your Mysterious Sword Gate here?”
Yang Baikun’s voice rang out from above.
“This is your territory, Golden Sword Sect, isn’t it? Why can’t my Mysterious Sword Gate be here?”
Ji Tianfu retorted arrogantly, disregarding the overwhelming numbers of powerful enemies before him.
“You!”
Yang Baikun hesitated, unsure how to respond. But before he could speak further, a slightly plump middle-aged man beside him spoke.
“Ji Tianfu, you know why we’ve brought so many people. Have you seen the kid we’re looking for?”
This middle-aged man was Ran Jianxuan, the leader of the Seven Star Sword Sect.
His eyes narrowed as he walked forward, scanning the Mysterious Sword Gate disciples.
