Immortal and Martial Dual Cultivation

Chapter 1614 (Raw 1596): Right on Schedule

The crowd was frightened silly by Xiao Chen’s strength. Even though everyone knew that he was not in a good state, coughing up blood, his complexion pale, almost bloodless, no one dared to charge in. Even Feng Buyu, who was still entirely unscathed, was frightened into taking several steps back.

What was Xiao Chen holding on for?

Many people started to feel confused. Based on the Xiao Chen’s combat prowess after he exposed his trump cards, he clearly could have left easily.

Why did he remain in Idle Cloud Restaurant, unwilling to leave Purple Sun City?

What was he guarding in Idle Cloud Restaurant, the mysterious Idle Cloud Restaurant?

The unsolved mystery gave rise to questions. Everyone was puzzled, entertaining fanciful thoughts.

Suddenly, Xiao Chen’s expression changed. He looked at the western sky again; the sun had already set.

The setting sun dyed the distant sky red, filling the sky with color.

The red light lingered like blood. As the light landed on Xiao Chen’s body, it blended with his blood-stained clothes, making him look extremely miserable.

Imperceptible anxiety and fatigue flashed in Xiao Chen’s eyes.

Was I cheated?

Twilight was falling, but the person Xiao Chen was waiting for still had not appeared. Is Luo Nan really going to die?

Xiao Chen did not wish that. He simply did not wish for this friend, whom he made when he just left the Kunlun Realm, to fall.

He was also unwilling to let this young couple be parted by death.

Xiao Chen was even more unwilling to see the kind Fei`er cry.

Right now, love was a luxury for Xiao Chen. Perhaps he saw the experience of young love, which he once had with Liu Ruyue, in Fei`er and Luo Nan. Perhaps his love for his first love was still around. Xiao Chen still stubbornly persisted.

Even if he was already clearly weak, he still stubbornly stood in front of Idle Cloud Restaurant, not letting anyone get near.

Xiao Chen’s saber trembled!

It was like the Lunar Saber Shadow understood Xiao Chen’s stubbornness, understood the persistence in his heart, knew the pride in his heart. At this moment, the Lunar Shadow Saber trembled, connected to his heart.

The Lunar Shadow Saber’s buzzing filled the entire place. The strong saber intent shocked the whole Purple Sun City.

Saber! My Dao! My Saber!

“Ka ca!” Just at this moment, Xiao Chen’s Saber Dao suddenly shattered some kind of bottleneck. He advanced from First Peek at Initiation to Approaching Small Perfection.

The Great Dao halo behind him condensed into one point and continuously extended up. It broke the bottleneck of one meter, reaching about three meters.

“Whoosh!”

Immediately, Xiao Chen’s body seemed to grow several times larger in everyone’s eyes.

The formless pressure made everyone feel tortured. They had to move back once again. At the same time, they felt like they could not understand what sort of existence this was.

Saber intent? Saber soul? Or Saber Domain?

“This...”

When Lan Luo and her bodyguard in the distance saw this scene, they were stunned.

“This is Great Dao Energy. He comprehended a Dao, and what’s more, he advanced it further. This is truly surprising. I originally thought that such a genius that could comprehend a Dao would only appear in a Rank 3 sect, at least,” An Yue, Lan Luo’s bodyguard hidden in the darkness, said in extreme shock.

“Breaking through amid adversity, advancing in a desperate situation. However, what is he guarding?”

Confusion appeared in Lan Luo’s eyes. Earlier, when she was in Idle Cloud Restaurant, Xiao Chen coldly chided her.

Xiao Chen said that she did not understand that there were many things in the world that was more important than one’s life.

“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”

Just at this moment, three strong auras suddenly appeared in the sky in the distance and rapidly approached Purple Sun City.

These auras were extremely strong, relentlessly bearing down on Xiao Chen’s overwhelming saber intent and pushing it back to Idle Cloud Restaurant.

This was the huge pressure from absolute strength. It had nothing to do with saber intent or Great Dao Energy.

This was the absolute suppression from an absolute advantage in cultivation.

Even though Xiao Chen’s Dao had advanced, he was still suppressed.

Three people descended before Idle Cloud Restaurant.

Without exception, these three old men were all late-stage Major Primal Core cultivators. However, they were still slightly weaker than the Jiao Snake. The Jiao Snake was already a peak Major Primal Core expert that was about to advance to the Cloud Sea Realm.

However, the pressure on Xiao Chen was no weaker than that of the Jiao Snake.

It was like how an ant faced a lion or an elephant. They were both incredibly huge; to the ant, there was no difference.

Upon seeing the three old men arrived, the surviving disciples of the Burning Moon Sect, the Wind Chasing Sect, and the Ice-Snow Mountain Manor all revealed joy.

“Greetings, First Elder!”

The ones who came were the people from their sect who were second only to the Sect Master.

The spectating crowd radically changed their expressions. Late-stage Major Primal Core super experts had not appeared in Purple Sun City for many years already. Furthermore, three appeared at the same time now.

The Ice-Snow Mountain Manor’s First Elder was a white-robed, white-haired old man. He was like a chunk of ice as he stood there. When he swept his gaze across, everyone felt like they would be sealed ice.

In contrast, the Burning Moon Sect’s First Elder wore fiery-red crescent moon robes. He exuded a violent aura from his body, appearing like a volcano standing there.

As for the Wind Chasing Sect’s First Elder, he wore azure clothes and had long hair like catkins continuously fluttering in the air.

The three were distinctive, easy to differentiate. When they landed, they stared closely at Xiao Chen.

“Make way,” the white-robed old man said indifferently. The moment his voice rang out, everyone felt a piercing chill.

The chill in their bones felt like needles stabbing them, causing intense pain.

The Wind Chasing Sect’s azure-clad old man said with a somewhat mild tone, “Young man, stop persisting. The three of us have already lived for several hundred years and disdain to attack you. As long as you leave Idle Cloud Restaurant and vanish from Purple Sun City, we can take it as you never appeared.”

“Big Brother Xiao Chen, let’s go.”

Luo Nan, Fei`er, and Xiao Suo finally convinced the Jiao Snake to let them come out from Idle Cloud Restaurant.

Xiao Chen looked at the sky. There was still a trace of the light from the setting sun; the day was not completely over yet.

He shook his head. “The sky is not dark yet. It would be too unfortunate if we leave now.”

Luo Nan said, “Let’s go. Brother Xiao Chen, it is already the fortune of my life to be able to receive kindness from you. I really have no regrets anymore.”

Fei`er’s eyes appeared somewhat moist. As she looked at the blood-covered Xiao Chen, her heart felt pained. “Big Brother Xiao Chen, let’s go. That old man must be cheating us. He will not come. I will be upset if Senior Brother dies. However, if you die, Fei`er will be upset as well.”

Many people suddenly felt enlighted. Now, they somewhat understood.

It turned out that Xiao Chen refused to leave, staying in the Idle Cloud Restaurant, in order to save his friend, waiting for someone to show up.

However, it looked like he was cheated. That person would not show up.

“So, it is because of this...”

Lan Luo felt stifled in that tall building and strangely flustered.

In front of Idle Cloud Restaurant, Xiao Chen was about to speak when the black lotus mark suppressed by the Buddhist pendant on his chest suddenly erupted with heat.

He vaguely sensed that another person with the same black lotus mark was heading rapidly towards Purple Sun City.

When Xiao Chen repeatedly attacked using his trump cards, he probably accidentally stimulated the black lotus mark. The Black Lotus Church’s people must have felt it.

Xiao Chen revealed a bitter smile. He felt helpless. Unexpectedly, the person he waited for did not arrive.

Instead, the ones who arrived were the last people that he wanted to see.

“How reckless! Even in this situation, you still dare to delay. Xiao Chen, no matter where you come from, this is the Purple Sun Region. Quickly hand over the Scarlet Blood War Banner and get out of Purple Sun City!” the Burning Moon Sect’s First Elder, who had a fiery temper, shouted furiously. Heatwaves surged out. Xiao Chen’s group could not withstand it, taking a few steps back.

“Interesting, really interesting. Three undying fellows scaring a child, and their faces are not even red. This old man really feels embarrassed for you.”

Just at this moment, a somewhat sloppy old man, dressed casually, appeared on a tall building near Idle Cloud Restaurant.

This person’s silent arrival caused the three First Elders’ eyes to constrict and show extremely serious expressions.

“Whoosh!”

The sloppy old man arrived before Xiao Chen with a flash. Then, he looked at Xiao Chen said, “I said to wait for three days, and you did. I did not misjudge you.”

Xiao Chen smiled calmly. “I also did not misjudge you. The sky is not dark yet, so Senior Liu is not late.”

“Sorry. The things you wanted were quite difficult to find, so I got delayed. However, I did not disappoint you; I found all of them.”

Senior Liu laughed. Then, he turned to the three old men. “All of you should know me. However, if you want to turn hostile with me because of the Scarlet Blood War Banner, then bring it on. In any case, I’m protecting Xiao Chen!”

Xiao Chen felt a strange warmth in his heart. Senior Liu was merely a late-stage Major Primal Core cultivator. Fighting against three would definitely lead to death. However, he stepped forward and said that he would protect Xiao Chen.

Anyone would feel warmth in their hearts when meeting such a loyal senior.

Senior Liu’s thoughts were very simple. Your white robes ended up covered in blood for the sake of a promise. This old man is older than you, stronger than you. I cannot be inferior to you in this.

“Who does not know the strongest Alchemist in the Purple Sun Region? However, Senior Liu, why do this?” the Ice-Snow Mountain Manor’s white-clad old man sighed softly.

The Burning Moon Sect’s red-robed old man said coldly, “You will not be able to protect him by yourself!”

“Rumble...!” Idle Cloud Restaurant suddenly crumbled, and the Jiao Snake finally showed its gargantuan body, appearing before the three old men.

“What if I’m included?”
