The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud

Chapter 968: The Bet Paid Off

Facing the attacks of over a hundred people, Lin Xiu couldn't help but feel nervous.

More than half of these people could easily defeat Lin Xiu in a one-on-one fight, let alone in this situation.

Lin Xiu didn't resist or defend himself, knowing that it would be futile.

Each force had sent ten people, all of them elite spirit immortals.

Their combined attacks could force even most of the Mystic Immortal Realm experts to retreat.

"Oh my, Elder Shi Nian, what are you doing?

Didn't we agree that the younger generation would handle their own affairs and we old people would stay out of it?

Elder Shi Nian, why are you suddenly in such a hurry? Come, sit down and let's observe calmly. No need to rush."

Their auras surged, but they were immediately suppressed by the elders of the Martial God Hall and other forces.

The aura of the elders trapped Shi Nian and the others.

These old-timers were smiling, but their expressions were more gloating than anything else.

In this situation, they certainly wouldn't allow Shi Nian and the others to intervene.

And how could Shi Nian and the others not be worried? If nothing changed, their Divine Dan Sect's younger generation might be completely wiped out.

Although Lin Xiu and the others weren't the strongest, they were still the top talents of the Divine Dan Sect's younger generation.

If they all perished here, it would be an unbearable loss.

Under the oppression of the elders, Shi Nian and the others were powerless.

Their intention was to protect, but now they couldn't act, leaving them feeling deeply frustrated.

The situation had escalated beyond what Shi Nian and the others could have imagined.

Their hearts turned cold as they believed that Lin Xiu and the others were doomed.

Perhaps only Su Jingzhen would survive, given how unpredictable he had been so far.

"These young people have indeed changed their mindset, but this move is rather foolish.

Why bother with teamwork at a time like this?

They're like a praying mantis trying to stop a chariot."

Shi Nian couldn't help but sigh, even though he still hoped for a miracle.

...

Under the attacks of Changyang Tiansha and the others, Lin Xiu and the Divine Dan Sect disciples closed their eyes.

But the next moment, the tearing pain they were expecting didn't come. Instead, a loud boom echoed in their ears.

Lin Xiu opened his eyes to see that a white energy wall had formed in front of them, completely blocking Changyang Tiansha's attacks.

Seeing this, Lin Xiu's heart soared with joy.

"The bet paid off!"

Lin Xiu shouted inwardly.

Previously, he had noticed that when members of the Soaring Clouds Sword Sect and the Tranquil Soul Sect crossed the ten-mile boundary, flashes of white light would instantly eliminate them.

So this time, he had bet his life on the existence of this ten-mile boundary.

After gathering some information about Su Jingzhen, Lin Xiu knew that Su Jingzhen had a mysterious and powerful contracted beast.

After blocking Changyang Tiansha's attacks and protecting the Divine Dan Sect disciples, Lin Xiu and the others suddenly saw several beams of white light shooting into the sky.

Among Changyang Tiansha's group, about a dozen of them had crossed the ten-mile boundary while launching their attacks.

When the white light flashed, those spirit immortals were instantly reduced to nothing.

This happened so quickly that Changyang Tiansha and the others were caught off guard.

Each of their forces had lost members in the blink of an eye.

"What was that? What just happened?"

"No wonder Lin Xiu and the others were so bold this time. They had a backup plan."

"But they can only sneak up and attack from the shadows. If you have the guts, come out and fight us head on!"

"..."

After regaining their composure, Changyang Tiansha and the others began to sneer again.

Of course, they were not willing to accept what had just happened.

Although they remained cautious and tense, with over a dozen top forces united, if they were so easily scared off, they might as well give up.

However, despite their words, Changyang Tiansha and the others didn't immediately cross the ten-mile boundary.

In fact, many of them silently took a few steps back.

At the very least, they didn't dare to take any risks until they could locate Bai Suzhen's exact position.

Meanwhile, Su Jingzhen had already reached the edge of the energy condensed by the elves.

The emerald green energy suddenly began to swirl like a tornado, forming a mysterious spatial passage.

From the far end of the passage, an aura filled with boundless vitality emerged.

Su Jingzhen felt a wave of excitement. He knew that this was probably the hidden Elven Sanctuary within the Elven Forest.

He glanced back, his gaze sweeping over Changyang Tiansha and the others, a hint of contempt curling his lips.

He had complete trust in Bai Suzhen.

As long as the older generation didn't interfere, dealing with the younger generation would be a breeze.

Without hesitation, he stepped forward and entered the vortex passage created by the elves.

At the outer edge of the Elven Forest, Shi Nian and the others finally heaved a sigh of relief.

A relaxed smile appeared on their faces.

In contrast, the elders of the other forces around them wore grim expressions.

"The power of this energy is at least at the level of the True Immortal Realm. No wonder the younger generation couldn't break through.

But for a True Immortal Realm expert to be involved in the younger generation's trial, isn't that a bit inappropriate?"

At that moment, a white-haired elder from the Martial God Hall spoke with a dark expression as he looked at Shi Nian.

Among the dozen or so who had just died, two were from the Martial God Hall.

Both of them were at the mid-stage of the Spirit Immortal realm and were promising talents. Naturally, he was furious.

As soon as the elder of the Martial God Hall spoke, the representatives of the other powers also turned their gaze to Shi Nian and the others, seemingly demanding an explanation from the Divine Dan Sect.

In response, Shi Nian, Song Kaishan, and the others smiled coldly.

"As everyone knows, before joining the Divine Dan Sect, our disciple Su Jingzhen was a member of the Heavenly Dragon Race in the Four Waters Region, and he was the first rank!

Even though the Heavenly Dragon Race is only a second-tier power, their dragon control art is unique.

Before joining our Divine Dan Sect, Su Jingzhen accidentally contracted a Chaos Celestial Serpent. I don't think your sects are unaware of this information."

After pausing for a moment, Shi Nian continued with a smile, "As everyone knows, the contracted beasts of the Heavenly Dragon Race are considered part of their own combat power.

Therefore, when his Chaos Celestial Serpent acts, it's basically Su Jingzhen himself who's facing the younger generation.

I assume none of you here have any objections to this, right?"
