Chapter 1260 The Desolate Underworld Alliance (1)

?To Ji Yuan's surprise, the desolate cultivators had spotted the cave that Ji Yuan was hiding and they were coming his way.

Ji Yuan was startled, "What the heck? Can't they go elsewhere?"

Shui Xisi smiled weakly, "This island isn't exactly big and like you, they have spotted this cave from high above. You really think alike like them."

Ji Yuan: …

As he was about to protect, the Goddess Destiny had interrupted them.

The Goddess Destiny said to Ji Yuan and his group, "I can erect a profound shield to render us invisible to their eyes. However, you mustn't muster your profound strength or else you will be detected by them."

Ji Yuan laughed, "Luckily the Goddess Destiny is here."

Shui Xisi hummed, "Useless fellow."

Ji Yuan: …

He frowned, "You are not that useful too."

Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue on the other hand were both giggling softly to themselves; they know that Shui Xisi was still trying to maintain her shameless charade of not being on the best terms with Ji Yuan. And the same was for Ji Yuan as well.

Quickly they had retreated to a corner of this cave where the Goddess Destiny had erected an illusion of a cave wall in front of them.

From outside, this would look like a solid wall unless someone would be so bored as to inspect or touch the cave wall.

Very soon, they could sense the approach of nearly a thousand cultivators, many of them with their own flying mounts. Some were even flying on their own.

However, only around 30 cultivators had entered this cave and they seemed to be the most powerful desolate cultivators among them.

Among them, Ji Yuan had naturally recognized the Demoness Empress An Xuanji and the other 6 desolate cultivators that were with her that day. Among the 6 cultivators, Elder Ma Qianhuo and Elder Fa Lungong were her most trusted elders.

As for 23 other cultivators, he did not know them.

The Demoness Empress An Xuanji quickly erected an anti-sound barrier at the entrance of the cave before she said to all the desolate cultivators that were presented. "This place is quite close to the Ivy League Sect. We need to make plans to avenge the late Demon Emperor. And I want to hear your opinions about it. It seems that many of you are unhappy about it. Why don't you tell me your concerns?"

An old desolate cultivator with long white whiskers said solemnly, "Is it wise for us to attack the Ivy League Sect so directly? What if we were to incur the wrath of the Great Desolate Wyrm? Then won't this be terrible for us? The Great Desolate Wyrm is the true overlord of our Desolate Underworld."

The Demoness Empress An Xuanji turned to look at the speaker and she smiled, "So it is Sect Leader Powell the Iron Guts of the Great Depression Sect. Are you afraid of the Great Desolate Wyrm that you think that my father's death should not be avenged?"

Sect Leader Powell frowned, "I will be afraid? I am renowned as the Iron Guts of the Desolate Underworld. I fear nothing and no one… except for the Great Desolate Wyrm. My own life is of no consequences but my cultivation sect may be at stake here."

When he had said that, many of the cultivators were nodding and agreeing with him.

Another aged cultivator with a pair of solid wings on his back had walked forward and Ji Yuan thought that he looked like he was from the draconian race.

He said solemnly, "Sect Leader Powell is right. The Great Desolate Wyrm had warned us in the past that the Mt. Vulcan Island is strictly off limits to us. I still remember the great calamity 3000 years ago when we attacked the Ivy League Sect."

"I know about the great calamity, Sect Leader Li Goudan."

Then she sighed softly as she looked at the two Sect Leaders Powell and Li Goudan, "The two of you are my late father's bosom friends as well as sworn brothers. But why aren't you thinking of avenging my late father but you have to fear the Great Desolate Wyrm instead? We are much stronger than 3000 years ago…"

She added, "Also, just a short while ago, this Nameless Cultivator Ji Yuan had just raided my Desolate Venom Sect and had even killed several of my elders including the Great Desolate Saint On-Wa. The is a double vendetta from my Desolate Venom Sect. The reason why I have summoned the Desolate Underworld Alliance for this punitive expedition is not only to avenge the honor of my Desolate Venom Sect but it is also to show the human cultivators who are the real overlords of the Desolate Underworld. Do you want your pride to be trampled by the human dogs?"

Many of the cultivators were quiet; they feared the Great Desolate Wyrm more than anything.

When Ji Yuan had heard her, he could not stand straight and he was cursing softly. "What human dogs?! You are all desolate pigs!"

Shui Xisi whispered to him, "Say that to Yun Chi and Ding Xiaoxiao in the face if you dare or you are just a puppy in front of them."

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

The Demoness Empress An Xuanji had slowly turned back and she was walked to face the cave wall in front of her and that was where Ji Yuan and his group were.

Ji Yuan could see the beautiful curves of her beautiful figure and enticing beautiful countenance as she sighed heavily.

She said with her back turned against all the desolate cultivators, "I have retrieved the Million Diaspora Lotus to do battle with the Ivy League Sect. With or without your help, I am determined to kill the Holy Maiden Ling Shan and the Nameless Cultivator Ji Yuan…"

Ji Yuan purposely made a funny face in front of her as he knows that she could not see him.

Xue Qianxue warned Ji Yuan, "Don't go too overboard."

Ji Yuan laughed softly, "Don't worry. She can't see us. Hahaha…"

Ling Feiyue warned him too, "Pride comes before the fall."

Sect Leader Powell quickly gasped, "Don't! This is possibly our only weapon against the messenger of the Nine Abyss Realms. And in less than a week's time, the Nine Abyss Realm's messenger will be here. We can't win…"

Sect Leader Li Goudan said panicky too, "The Holy Maiden Li Shan and her Ivy League Sect may be our best protection for only she can summon the Great Desolate Wyrm. Please think over it!"

The Demoness Empress An Xuanji hummed coldly as she gave a kick in rage and almost hitting Ji Yuan's crotch, "So you are all afraid?!"

Ji Yuan in the mean time was muttering almost incoherently, "Please be careful where you are kicking…"
