Chapter 48: A gun?
Gong Yuxian, Feng Qianhui, and the Frozen Cloud Fairies' expressions grew tense. These people were clearly here to stir up trouble! And to make matters worse, that man had already stepped into the sect before they could react. Now, even if they activated the defensive formation, they would be trapped inside with him!
"Sir, please leave. We have no man hidden here!" Feng Qianhui's voice was firm as she gathered her profound energy, her eyes locked on the intruder. Simultaneously, she transmitted to the others, 'This man already entered the sect ground, it is too late to use the protective formation. I will hold him for a while you guys quickly run to the Frozen End Divine Hall!'
'Master!' Gong Yuxian and the others hesitated to move, they knew that leaving her here meant certain death.
'What are you waiting for? Quickly, go! Gong Yuxian, take them to the Divine Hall! Do you want all to die with me here?' Feng Qianhui transmitted her tone was urgent.
"Hehehe, it doesn't matter if that man is hiding here or not. I've taken a liking to this place," the man, Ye Fan, laughed grimly. "And I gonna enjoy it very, very much."
"Hey, you planning to do this alone?" another man called out.
"Just wait here," Ye Fan said with a sneer. "I can handle these weaklings by myself. They only have three Thrones at most. How much resistance can these ants put up against an Overlord like me?"
*Thrones = Emperor Profound Realm, Overlords = Tyrant Profound Realm.*
'Master, quickly activate the defensive formation! I have a way to deal with this man!' Just as Gong Yuxian and the others were about to move, Chu Yuechan, who remained surprisingly calm, transmitted to them.
'Yuechan?!' Gong Yuxian and Feng Qianhui stared at her in surprise.
'Before leaving, Wuji gave me an artifact that can kill this man,' Chu Yuechan explained calmly. 'Quickly activate the defensive formation before it's too late.'
'...' Gong Yuxian hesitated for a moment and looked at Feng Qianhui. When she saw Feng Qianhui nodding at her, she gritted her teeth, took an icy-blue jade pearl a foot in length, and crushed it.
The shattered pearl let out a loud chime. In an instant, it activated the protective formation, Snow Goddess' Veil. A massive ice-blue barrier enveloped the entire Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace.
This protective formation, set up by Mu Bingyun due to a prophecy of a thousand-year calamity, it was left by her to shield Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace. Once activated, it would protect the sect for seven days without breaking. However, it could only be used once; after that, it would be permanently exhausted.
"What is that? A barrier?" the four men outside the palace exclaimed in surprise.
"Heh, do you think this weak barrier can hold us?" one of them scoffed. He surged all his profound energy and slammed his palm into the barrier.
Bang!!
Blood scattered in the air and the man stretched open his trembling palm. The webbing between his thumb and index finger had been greatly torn and his entire arm was both in pain and numbed. He fiercely sucked in a breath and said in an enraged and exasperated manner, "What the hell is going on?! How could a mere Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace possess a protective barrier of this magnitude? This isn't possible!"
"Trash! Step down, I'll do it!" Ye Guying, the old man who was at Sovereign Profound Realm, took a step forward gathered all the profound energy within him, and punched the barrier.
Boom!
"...Impossible!" Ye Guying staggered back, his face twisted in disbelief. His hand was a mess, blood seeping from torn flesh, and exposed bones visible through shredded skin.
"Bitch, what did you do?!" Ye Fan who was stuck inside the barrier, glared at Gong Yuxian. He was initially shocked, but then he laughed, "Hahaha, you dumb bitches. I don't know how you got this strong barrier, but too bad for you, I'm still here! I'm gonna take my sweet time and have some fun with all of you."
While he was talking, Chu Yuechan pulled something from her storage ring. It was a revolver gun, the revolver was white silver and the handle was black. She took the gun and aimed at the Ye Fan.
"What is that toy, did you thi..." Her movement attracted Ye Fan's attention, he was about to scoff at her.
Bang!
However, Chu Yuechan wasn't interested in wasting time with this lowlife. She pulled the trigger, and with a sharp gunshot, a small bullet shot out of the barrel. Instantly, the bullet transformed into a purple sphere. As it traveled through the air, the sphere grew larger and larger, until it was the size of a basketball by the time it reached Ye Fan.
The sphere shot forward with incredible speed. Before Ye Fan could even react, it was already just a few millimeters from him. Panicking, he quickly raised a barrier in front of himself.
However, the barrier could not last for even a second before it was torn apart by the sphere.
Boom
With a deafening explosion, the upper half of the man's body was obliterated, leaving nothing but a cloud of blood and scattered flesh.
"Yue-Yuchan! What... what is that thing?!" Gong Yuxian's eyes widened in shock. She turned to Chu Yuechan, her voice trembling, glancing between her and the gun in her hand. When she looked at the gun she couldn't help but flinch in fear.
"..." Feng Qianhui's reaction was not much better, she originally thought that Chu Yuechan had some sort of items that could restrain their enemy and they would have to work together and pay a heavy price before killing him.
"..." The other five fairies were the same.
"This is a gun. Wuji gave it to me for emergencies. It can kill anyone in the Tyrant Profound Realm with just a single shot! Unfortunately, I only have two bullets..." Chu Yuechan gently stroked the revolver before placing it back in her storage ring.
This was a weapon Yun Wuji created a few days after Chu Yuechan's memories returned. In fact, the reason he visited the Black Moon Merchant Guild and ended up killing Ye Xinghan was to buy the missing materials needed to create this gun. The gun uses beast cores as bullets, it squeezes all the power in the core to produce one extremely powerful blow.
"...Yun Wuji," Gong Yuxian whispered her expression a mix of envy, relief, and regret. If only she had met a man like him earlier...
"Good, it looks like your little lover really cares about you," Feng Qianhui said with a relieved laugh. But then her smile faded, and she continued with a serious tone, "We've taken out one of them, but the barrier will only last for seven days. Once it's down, they'll be able to get in."
"..." Chu Yuechan, lowered her head in response, she was thinking of something.
"Yuechan, can... can you contact your lover?" Gong Yuxian hesitated for a moment before saying.
At the same time in the Yun Palace, there was a chess board in front of Yun Wuji, he was playing chess with Xia Qingyue.
"Master, tell me more about the Realm of Gods. How is it different from this planet?" Xia Qingyue asked as she placed her chess piece.
"…!!!" Yun Wuji smiled, holding a chess piece and about to answer when his expression suddenly changed. Immediately he used space law to teleport next to Yuchan, however, perhaps because the barrier was made by Mu Bingyue, his teleportation failed.
Mu Bingyue was someone at the 8th Level Divine Sovereign Realm. Although her strength at that time was weakened, it was still very powerful to anyone in this lower planet. Naturally, the barrier she laid would be extremely powerful.
"Master, what's wrong?" Xia Qingyue asked, noticing Yun Wuji's changed expression.
"Something important happened; I'll have to go out for a while," Yun Wuji said as he stood up and tore open the space. He couldn't teleport inside the Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace, but that didn't mean he couldn't teleport outside the palace.
Walking out of the space crack, Yun Wuji quickly assessed his surroundings. In front of him was the Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace, surrounded by a blue, transparent barrier.
Inside the barrier, he saw Chu Yuechan, a busty, beautiful woman, an elderly woman beside her, and five veiled women behind them. They all looked at him in surprise.
There were also other women on the ground looking at him in fear.
"Wuji!" Chu Yuechan shouted, waving her hand.
Yun Wuji nodded at her with a smile before turning his attention to the people outside the barrier.
There were four people, an elderly man and three middle-aged men.
He ignored the middle-aged men, they were just small fries. His attention was on the elderly man. For the first time in a very long time, Yun Wuji's expression became serious 'Fuck, this old bastard is at the 7th Level Sovereign Profound Realm! That's not according to the plan, shit!'
