Chapter 244 What Crime Has She Committed?
Above Lingshan Square.
Densely packed long swords stabbed at the magic circle composed of countless runes.
And each of those countless long swords carried purple lightning as they attacked the magic circle.
Under the fierce attack of the long sword, the magic circle finally couldn't bear the burden and was pierced with a huge hole.
At this moment, a swift black lightning broke through the hole like an angry dragon. Its power was astonishing and it instantly split the stubborn magic arrays.
Immediately afterwards, those long swords flying in the air, shining with purple lightning, seemed to have received some kind of summons, and quickly merged into one, turning into a long sword.
Chen Xuan waved his hand, and the purple light of the sword disappeared instantly, returning obediently to his hand, and then gradually dissipated into nothingness under his control.
The cultivators in the audience were stunned, not understanding why Sect Master Chen Xuan did this.
At this moment, Xu Wan on the high platform suddenly rose into the air and flew uncontrollably towards the black thunder.
Yun Che witnessed the scene before him, and an indescribable impulse surged in his heart.
He wanted to jump up without hesitation and bear the impending thunder for Xu Wan.
However, at this critical moment, he suddenly realized that if he made the slightest movement, his relationship as master and disciple with Xu Wan would be immediately exposed.
This forbidden emotion will undoubtedly bring endless troubles and worries to Xu Wan, and may even push her into an abyss from which there is no escape.
He took a deep breath and tried to calm his inner turmoil.
Recalling last night, he passed on his spiritual power to Xu Wan without reservation, most of which was absorbed by her, so that he has not yet fully recovered.
But because of this, he has a deeper understanding and trust in Xu Wan's strength and tenacity.
He firmly believed that Xu Wan would be able to withstand the bombardment of the thunder with his own strength.
What's more, her body also contains his dragon scales. This mysterious and powerful power will undoubtedly add a solid shield for her.
Yun Che silently prayed for Xu Wan in his heart, hoping that she could survive this crisis safely.
Thinking of this, Yun Che's mood gradually calmed down.
He knew very well that his calmness and restraint at this moment was the best support and protection for Xu Wan.
Immediately afterwards, the sky seemed to be torn apart, and terrifying black lightning struck Xu Wan like an angry dragon.
The power of those black thunders is so great that it is frightening, as if they can destroy everything.
Jin Xi, who was in the audience, witnessed this scene. A look of determination flashed in his eyes, and he took off into the air without hesitation, rushing towards Xu Wan like a dazzling meteor.
He pushed Xu Wan away and instantly transformed into a majestic giant Qilin.
He opened his bloody mouth, trying to absorb the raging black thunder.
Xu Wan, who was pushed away by Jin Xi, was now suspended in mid-air, her face full of anxiety and worry.
She shouted loudly: "Jin Xi, stop! The power of this black thunder is not something you can withstand. Don't take risks for me!"
Jin Xi rushed towards the black thunder without hesitation, trying to use his own strength to help Xu Wan withstand the power of this heavenly punishment.
However, the black thunder seemed to have a spirit, and it nimbly bypassed Jin Xi's obstruction.
He turned directly to Xu Wan who was floating in the air, and a series of black lightning like dragons, with destructive power, struck her fiercely.
At that moment, Xu Wan could no longer maintain her human form, and her true form was revealed.
The hairpin that was originally firmly inserted in the bun was knocked down by the lightning and floated in the air. She immediately flew over, reached out to catch the hairpin and put it into her sleeve.
In fact, this hairpin is very ordinary. It is just made of sandalwood without any embellishment. It is a hairpin worn by Taoist disciples.
Xu Wan knew very well that since she had entered the Taoist sect, she naturally could not lose this item, as it was given to her by her master Jiuyang.
The long black hair fell like a waterfall, and the moment it fell, it miraculously turned into a dazzling white.
The snow-white headband that was originally tied firmly in her hair slipped down inadvertently.
The hairband seemed to have a soul, tightly wrapped around her wrist.
This headband was given to her by Yun Che when she first entered Lingshan. It contained a trace of his spiritual power.
A pair of small white cat ears poked out from her hair, and her black eyes turned into a deep emerald green, flashing with anxiety and fear.
Behind her, eight white cat tails were swaying.
The monks below all cried out in shock when they saw this scene.
They looked at Xu Wan in disbelief, with eight cat tails swaying in the air, their hearts filled with confusion and shock.
"She actually managed to grow eight cat tails. She's a true genius!"
"The target of this heavenly punishment is actually her?"
"What crime did she commit that caused the Emperor of Heaven to send down such a terrifying black thunder to punish her?"
"Yes, even though she's a cat demon, she's always lived in peace with us and has never harmed us!"
……
The monks were discussing the matter one after another.
Xuan Qing stood quietly in a corner of the square, his eyes fixed on Xu Wan who was being bombarded by black thunder.
His eyes were filled with heartache and helplessness, and he was crying out in his heart: What crime did she commit, and why did the Emperor of Heaven punish her like this?
At this critical moment, Xuanqing took a deep breath, closed his eyes and concentrated, holding the rosary tightly in his hand, and tickled the beads one by one.
His lips moved slightly and he muttered something, which was the spell he used to communicate with the gods.
He prayed devoutly for the blessing of the Three Pure Ones, hoping that the Three Pure Ones would show up.
He rescued Xu Wan from danger and helped her escape the terrifying black thunder.
On the high platform, Yun Che raised his eyes and looked up. His gaze was as sharp as an eagle, fixed tightly on the sky.
Qilin Jinxi was circling anxiously, he wanted to rescue Xu Wan who was attacked by black thunder.
Yun Che took a deep breath and shouted loudly to the sky. His voice was as loud as thunder as he ordered, "Jin Xi, come back quickly!"
As Yun Che finished speaking, he gently waved his hand.
As if receiving some mysterious call, Jin Xi rushed down from the sky and arrived at the platform in an instant.
A huge golden Qilin stood on the high platform. He raised his head and let out a roar.
Immediately afterwards, his body flashed and instantly turned back into human form.
However, Jin Xi did not stand up. He suddenly knelt in front of Yun Che, holding his robe tightly with both hands, his eyes full of pleading.
"Please help me, Emperor!"
Yun Che shook his head helplessly. He looked at Jin Xi and explained, "Jin Xi, this is the heavenly tribulation of every cultivator.
This is a necessary step for them on their spiritual path, so there is no need for you to panic."
"But they all say that black thunder is a symbol of heaven's punishment for sinners!"
Jin Xi raised his head, his eyes full of confusion and worry.
And Yun Che still had an indifferent expression.
“How dare a mere cultivator make such a rash conclusion?
The power of black thunder far exceeds that of purple thunder, and it will only target one person.
This is naturally to help this person overcome the tribulation and ascend to heaven, not to punish him."
Every word of the conversation between Yun Che and Jin Xi reached Xuan Qing's ears clearly.
He was concentrating on turning the prayer beads in his hand, trying to summon the Three Pure Ones to appear.
At this moment, his hand suddenly stopped, as if even time was frozen by the shock of this moment.
Xuanqing felt as if his heart was pierced by thousands of arrows, and he felt deeply sorry for Xu Wan.
He sighed inwardly, Jinglian, you see, this emperor whom you love so deeply is not worthy of your efforts at all.
At the critical moment of your life and death, he will not save you at all.
In his eyes, your life is just like those of ordinary monks, worthless, and he won't have the slightest pity.
Thinking of this, Xuanqing instantly became furious. He felt the blood in his chest churning and a mouthful of blood spurted out.
The Taoist priest next to him was shocked when he saw this, and hurried forward to support him, asking with concern: "Junior Brother Xuanqing, are you okay?"
Xuan Qing suppressed the anger and grief in his heart, took a deep breath, and slowly replied: "It's okay, I'm fine."
