Chapter 126 Elder Sun Ling
Chapter 126 Elder Sun Ling
WITHOUT ANY TROUBLE, Yang Lujia was able to pass through the passage safely, except at the last part with which the Will of Da Shikong questioned him about his appearance. Nevertheless, it let him pass without any issue as clearly, the Will of Da Shikong was weaker than he was. Hence, it was slightly afraid of him.
At least that was what Yang Lujia felt and believed in.
It had to be said that, except for him, anyone in that realm would always be weaker than the Will. An exception could only happen when the Will of that realm was weakened to such a state where, for example, in Da Sishen, a Saint could probably defeat it, or if not, the Will itself could not defeat a Saint.
“What!” Yang Lujia exclaimed when he entered Da Shikong. “This realm, it’s filled with the time and space rules… no, there are even stronger rules this time… it’s like rules have different levels as well.”
“You! Who are you? How dare you trespass the Saber Path Sect’s grounds?!” A man, wearing a soldier’s helmet, immediately brandished his saber at Yang Lujia with his heightened vigilance. Somehow, although this young man was a mortal to his eyes, his instincts were telling him he wasn’t but a dangerous human, an extremely dangerous one, almost as if he could smell death from him.
Yang Lujia ignored him and continued to observe the area. His eyes turned purple all of a sudden. Then, he saw the density of rules differing from one another. “Those of which had denser qualities must be stronger than those that aren’t dense enough,” he muttered..
“What are you talking about? Are you even listening to me?” the man thundered as he neared his saber toward the neck of the other party. “Tell me, who are you? What are your objectives for infiltrating the grounds of our Saber Path Sect?!”
“Saber Path Sect?” Only then did Yang Lujia become aware of the current situation as he took a glance at the man whose saber was only an inch away from his neck. “Who are you? Are you one of their soldiers or guards?”
“Guards! Surround this man!” the man shouted and circled him. “Capture him and bring him to the elders for questioning!”
“What happened?” another guard asked. “I never thought there would be anyone who’d dare to trespass the grounds of our Saber Path Sect. Does he have a death wish?”
Yang Lujia’s face remained stoic, however. He then held the tip of the saber in between his forefinger and thumb.
GASP!
Everyone was truly afraid for the man. Every person who tried to hold the saber of the guards would be reduced to mincemeat. After all, the saber of their captain was something specially made by their sect’s greatest forger of sabers, Li Suchang!
That was why the moment Yang Lujia touched the saber, they were holding their breaths as they thought they were bound to witness another bloodshed from the saber’s wrath.
“Oh?” Yang Lujia recognized the rules imbued in the saber. They would automatically activate and enter the bodies of the one that touched them. Moreover, they weren’t just simple rules but the rules of explosion. Once it enters the body, the body will explode.
However, it wasn’t the case with Yang Lujia.
With a pinch of his thumb and forefinger, he pinched the tip of the saber. As though time was slowed down, gradually, the saber broke into tiny pieces until all that was left was its handle.
SNAP!
Everyone’s jaws almost dropped to the ground when they saw how the young man remained unharmed even after he touched the captain’s saber. It was meant to kill trespassers, but it actually didn’t bring any harm to the young man.
“IMPOSSIBLE!” their captain exclaimed and stepped backward as he looked at the young man incredulously.
Like before, the young man’s face was always the same—expressionless. His countenance, even when he was aimed with a saber at his neck, remained the same. It was like he wielded his sword against a giant with an indestructible body.
“What’s happening here?” a voice as loud as a ringing bell sounded in the open grounds where the guards were patrolling. “What’s with the commotion? Is there an intruder?”
“Elder Sun Ling!” the guards called as they bowed toward the woman who looked younger than every one of them.
Then, the captain of the guards proceeded in reporting the matter of the young man suddenly appearing within the grounds of the Saber Path Sect. “Elder Sun Ling, this man must be from another sect who’s here to spy on our grounds! You know, a Saint who was proficient in the rules of space can easily use the space for this kind of spatial transfer—”
“No need to tell me that. I already know those things. What I am curious about was: if he was truly from any of the other sects who will act as a spy in our sect, then he should have come here prepared and silently. There was no way they would reveal themselves like this. Even if this was a mistake, they must have their own backup plan. If otherwise, they must have already planned this all along and another person who is his accomplice has already infiltrated the sect by now!”
“What?!” The captain’s eyes widened and looked at his guards. “GO SEARCH THE AREA NOW! IF THERE WERE ANY UNUSUAL SPATIAL QI FLUCTUATIONS, REPORT TO ME IMMEDIATELY! ALSO, CHECK WHETHER THERE ARE DISCIPLES WHO ARE HARMED!”
“YES!” all of them chorused as they went to their respective areas of responsibility.
Then, the captain stared back at the elder and bent his body to thank her for telling the possibility of infiltration.
“It’s also part of everyone’s responsibility, anyway. So, you don’t have to necessarily thank me. As for the man that appeared, I should bring him with me for interrogation.”
As the wind blew on her robe and her slightly blond hair, her beauty was even magnified that it put the captain of the patrolling guards in a daze. He then woke up from his stupor and quickly left to participate in the investigation.
“Now, will you come with me?” Elder Sun Ling instantly arrived in front of the young man. However, the latter seemed unsurprised as though he predicted this much. “Why are you not surprised that I am to use spatial transfer?”
“Is that something to be proud of, though?” the young man replied, his tone laced with a hint of mockery.
“Hahahaha!” Elder Sun Ling laughed and immediately, her eyes turned sharp. “You have to pay for that insolence of yours. People who can control the rules of space are as rare as one in a million. Don’t you dare underestimate me!”
Her objective was to make him feel fear. Contrary to her expectations, however, the young man did not even budge and his face remained nonchalant.
Then, he grinned as he instantly appeared behind her. “Is that so? Am I part of that one of a million, then?”
