Chapter 638: Chapter 638: Killing on Arrival_1

In Huaxia waters, atop Lingxiao Island.

After a tour, Zhang Xian saw that the foundation of the sect was basically established. Only the final steps remained. He couldn’t help but reveal a slight smile on his face.

There are quite a few workers on the island now. Many things should not be shown publicly. For example, the formation - he didn’t want too many people to know about it.

Otherwise, Lingxiao Island would definitely become the focus of the world.

He didn’t want to see that situation.

"How is it?"

Upon seeing Zhang Xian smiling, Mo Shaoyun breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I’ve made some changes according to the initial plan, which shouldn’t have any significant impact, should it?"

"Changes?"

Zhang Xian was taken aback, and laughed: "You’re free to make changes. After all, who’s to say no since you’re my wife? What I’m concerned about is not whether things have been done according to my plan, but the progress."

"That’s good."

Mo Shaoyun smiled and said, "According to this pace, it will be more or less completed in about ten more days."

"Hmm, it is being built quite fast."

Xiao Nan laughed: "In order to finish as quickly as possible, we are working around the clock."

"Good, everyone has worked hard, especially those workers."

Zhang Xian nodded his head and said: "After we’ve completed the construction, we must express our gratitude to them. The swift establishment of our sect is all their effort."

"I’ll take care of that," Mo Shaoyun nodded.

Zhang Xian turned to Mo Shaoyun, asked, "Darling, we shouldn’t be short of money now, right?"

"What do you think?"

Mo Shaoyun said, "We don’t lack money for the sect. Other properties can barely sustain themselves. However, we haven’t paid for the island yet, and the debts you owe are still unreturned. Just because we followed you, don’t assume that you no longer have to return the money from our family. You must make up for this, not a single cent can be less."

"Really?"

Zhang Xian had a bitter smile: "I imagine that my in-laws wouldn’t require repayment. After all, isn’t the money from your family ultimately mine?"

"You must return it."

Mo Shaoyun persisted, "We’ll discuss the future matters in the future."

Zhang Xian showed a bitter smile on his face after hearing her words.

It seemed that he was short on funds again. At this critical juncture, he didn’t know exactly how to raise money. Now, they could be in danger at any given moment.

"Brother Zhang, there’s trouble."

Suddenly, Qiu Yun came over with several people, "A few people have come to the island. It seems they are here for us."

"Do you know who they are?" Zhang Xian asked, frowning.

Qiu Yun shook his head, "I don’t know. But the lead guy seems to be very powerful."

"Let’s go and take a look," Zhang Xian turned around and walked off.

Qiu Yun and Jun Wuhen made their break into the Grandmaster realm a few days ago. Even though they are not considered top-tier figures among grandmasters, they are still powerful grandmasters nonetheless.

If even Qiu Yun admits that the opponent is strong, one can imagine how formidable the leader of the opposing group must be.

"Wait for us." Mo Shaoyun and other women also followed.

Zhang Xian turned around and said, "Elder Sister Shaoyun, you all should stay on the island. If necessary, activate the formation."

"Ah..."

Mo Shaoyun asked in surprise: "Activate the Formation?"

"Possibly," Zhang Xian nodded.

As soon as he heard from Qiu Yun that there were only a few individuals approaching, he immediately got a bad feeling.

Since they are targeting us, they must be aware of our situation on the island. Despite the presence of several Grandmasters and many Innate Masters, the handful of enemies dare to confront us. This suggests that the formidable figure that Qiu Yun mentioned is definitely not simple.

That individual might be at the peak of the world’s martial arts path.

Others might not consider that possibility, but he differed. His master was a super-strong figure from the Legendary Realm.

He knew that the Legendary Realm was extremely rare, even counted on one’s fingers. However, it is not only in the legends.

"Okay... okay!" Mo Shaoyun and the other women nodded and hastily turned to run to the top of the mountain.

Zhang Xian already taught them how to operate the formation. They might not be as strong as Zhang Xian individually, but six of them together, outputting power at the same time, could not be matched by Zhang Xian.

"They’ve already come up. Let’s go."

Zhang Xian saw that Mo Shaoyun and others had left, and felt the spiritual energy fluctuations. He immediately turned around and led the people down the mountain.

Just now, he felt that the spiritual energy on the island surged rapidly up the mountain peak. This occurrence signified that the Five-eyed Divine Demon had detected the situation and promptly activated the formation.

The whole Lingxiao Island was enveloped in the formation, where the Five-eyed Divine Demon, located at the core of the formation, would immediately notice any slight movement at the outermost area of the formation.

...

In a certain place at the foothills of Lingxiao Island.

An elderly man with white hair arrived at the beginning of an asphalt road with a few others. He smirked coldly, saying, "So this is the so-called Lingxiao Island?"

"Yes, it is."

The head of the Broken Sword Sect nodded and replied, "It’s rumored that the young lad bought this island and is planning to establish a sect here."

"Founding a sect?"

After chuckling, the white-haired old man scoffed, "A young lad in his twenties dares to attempt to become a sect leader? Is he joking with us, the ancient martial arts practitioners? Does he truly think leading a sect and establishing a gate are easy tasks? From what you’re saying, I’m rather curious to see if this lad has three heads and six arms that give him such audacity."

"That lad, indeed, is very arrogant." The Head of Broken Sword Sect laughed coldly.

He didn’t know who Zhang Xian was. He had only heard his disciples speak of him. However, he did remember that Zhang Xian murdered an elder from their Broken Sword Sect.

Although they, the Broken Sword Sect, were one of the top three sects in the world of ancient martial arts, they only boasted four Grandmasters. Zhang Xian killed one of them without a second thought, causing them heartache and anger.

If it weren’t for the fact that the East China Sect also lost one member, leaving the balance unchanged, they probably would have exploded in anger.

"Bang..."

All of a sudden, the white-haired old man who was walking felt like he had collided with a wall and was bounced back.

However, there was nothing in front of him.

"What’s happening?"

After staring blankly for a moment, the white-haired old man stretched out his hand in surprise, "What’s ahead? Why is there a peculiar energy blocking the way?"

"It’s a formation, it must be a formation."

The Head of Broken Sword Sect touched the air in front of him and swiftly retreated, "Last time, at the ancient tomb outside Tongzhi county, there was also this kind of robust energy barrier. At that time, if it hadn’t been for the combined attack of the experts from the major sects, we might not have been able to break through that barrier. Could it be, there’s a weird formation on Lingxiao Island?"

"Peculiar energy?"

Upon frowning, the tip of the white-haired old man’s right index and middle fingers began to emit golden light, forming a quickly spinning small golden ball.

"This...this is the power of the Legendary Realm?"

Those from the Broken Sword Sect, who had sensed the potency of the golden ball, all retreated one after another.

Although Bai Yu, their Supreme Elder, had already stepped into the Legendary Realm a long time ago, he had been secluding himself trying to have another breakthrough. He hadn’t taken any action. No one dared to provoke their sect since its strength was obvious. As a result, they had never been involved in a large-scale battle and were largely ignorant about the power of the Legendary Realm.

At this moment, seeing Bai Yu easily create a frighteningly powerful light ball, they couldn’t help but feel intense envy.

So, this is the power of Legendary Realm?

"I want to see just how robust this peculiar barrier is."

After giving a cold smirk, Bai Yu flicked his hand and the light ball instantly transformed into a beam of golden light, hitting the invisible energy barrier hard.

"Bang..."

Out of nowhere, a ripple like a water wave that was hard to see with the naked eye appeared in the sky.

The golden light ball paused in mid-air for about half a moment and then disappeared all of a sudden. Immediately after, the ripples nodding on the surface also disappeared along with the golden light ball.

"Huh? This energy barrier does have some abilities."

Seeing his attack blocked by the energy barrier, Bai Yu was somewhat surprised. He didn’t understand formations, and was thus clueless about how to deal with it.

From his previous attack, he felt the rebound of the energy. That is to say, it’s very likely that he would suffer from backlash if he increased his attack power.

"Indeed, the formation is extremely powerful. It can even resist an attack from the Legendary Realm." The members of the Broken Sword Sect looked at the disappeared ripple, swallowing hard, their faces filled with terror.

They knew that Bai Yu hadn’t used his full strength in the previous attack. However, they could roughly gauge the strength of that move.

The golden light ball could probably even knock down a strong fighter of the Grandmaster Realm.

"Supreme Elder."

The head of Broken Sword Sect shook off his shock, stepped forward and asked, "This formation, can you break it?"

"Hard to tell."

Bai Yu furrowed his brows and replied, "From what just happened, if I attacked with full strength, even if I cannot break the formation in one attack, it definitely would not withstand my second attack. However, this formation is quite strange as it can rebound my attack. If I fail to break it at once, I may be seriously injured by the backlash."

"What should we do?"

The head of Broken Sword Sect glanced at Bai Yu and asked, "How about, we all attack together? With the Supreme Elder here, we should be able to break the formation at once."

"Well, let’s wait and see."

Bai Yu chuckled, looking up and coldly saying, "Someone’s coming from over there. The guy leading them, who isn’t very old, should be the young lad you mentioned - Zhang Xian."

"That brat dares to court death?" The head of Broken Sword Sect ground his teeth.

Bai Yu smirked and his eyes chilled instantly, "Four Grandmaster level fighters. Not bad. This yet-to-be-established sect seems to be hiding quite a few formidable practitioners, no wonder they dare to be so arrogant."

"Hehe..." A strange laugh echoed.

When Zhang Xian reached the edge of the formation, he looked at Bai Yu outside and laughed, "I assume you are the legendary monster from the Broken Sword Sect, right? The super-powerful one from the Legendary Realm?"
