- Chapter 839: Tai Cangzi Appears, Gao Baiyue's Sneer
Days later, the towering walls of Blue Lane City appeared in Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan’s view.
Without much effort to conceal their presence, their approach was quickly detected by the cultivators stationed at Blue Lane City.
“May I ask which sect or family the approaching cultivators belong to?” a voice called out from atop the city walls as soon as they neared Blue Lane City.
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan each produced a token, which transformed into two symbols mid-air.
Recognizing the symbols, the stationed cultivator’s demeanor turned solemn, and he promptly invited them,
So it’s fellow Daoists from the Haoran Sect and Thunderclap Valley. Please, come inside.”
With the city gates and defensive arrays opened, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan didn’t hesitate to enter Blue Lane City.
Once inside, they quickly found the base of operations for both the Haoran Sect and Thunderclap Valley.
The two sects’ cultivators were stationed close to each other, so upon their arrival, familiar faces from both sects greeted them, including Elder Yuan Feng and Elder Chi Yan from the Haoran Sect, as well as Divinelord Frostblade and Yue Chanjuan from Thunderclap Valley.
Junior Brother Jiang, Junior Sister Shen, you’ve taken on this mission too?” Clearly, Elder Yuan Feng, Divine Lord Frostblade, and the others were somewhat surprised by their arrival.
“Yeah.”
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan nodded.
After exchanging brief pleasantries, Jiang Chengxuan inquired,
“Elders, what’s the current situation on our side? When are we planning to attack Immortal Sea City?”
Hearing Jiang Chengxuan’s question, Elder Yuan Feng immediately replied,
“So far, the cultivators from all sects have almost all arrived.
We will launch the attack on Immortal Sea City in a few days at most.”
Divine Lord Frostblade also nodded, adding,
“Elder Yuan Feng is correct. Unless something unexpected happens, the assault on Immortal Sea City will take place within the next few days.
Moreover, Junior Brother Jiang and Junior Sister Shen, you should also be prepared.
Given the scale of our mobilization, the enemy is surely ready as well.
It won’t be easy.”
“I’ve already considered that.”
Jiang Chengxuan nodded.
Suddenly, he paused slightly before speaking up,
“By the way, has Tai Cangzi from Qjankun Hall arrived in Blue Lane City?” Upon hearing Jiang Chengxuan mention this name, Elder Yuan Feng, Divine Lord Frostblade, and others’ expressions subtly changed.
However, Elder Chi Yan quickly shook his head and said,
“That guy hasn’t arrived yet.
But according to our estimates, he should be here soon.
Junior Brother Jiang…”
He seemed to want to say something more, but the words stopped at the tip of his tongue.
Jiang Chengxuan understood what he meant, and actually, he understood what everyone present was thinking.
He chuckled and said, “Everyone, rest assured, although there are old grudges between me and Tai Cangzi, I will not let these affect the greater good.
At most, I will seek an explanation from him afterwards.”
Jiang Chengxuan was clear in his mind: personal grievances were personal, and the greater good was separate.
He would not let personal vendettas overshadow the larger situation, as it did not align with his way of doing things.
He believed in acting openly and decisively, leaving no room for others to fault him.
The assurance from Jiang Chengxuan visibly relieved Elder Yuan Feng, Divine Lord Frostblade, and the others present.
Soon, Elder Yuan Feng and Divine Lord Frostblade said,
Junior Brother Jiang, rest assured, after we deal with Immortal Sea City, we will also join you in seeking an explanation from Tai Cangzi.”
“Thankyou, Elder Brothers and Sisters,” Jiang Chengxuan graciously accepted their offer of support.
Although Jiang Chengxuan didn’t need help against cultivators below Dao Integration Realm, he appreciated their goodwill.
As they were talking, more people arrived outside Blue Lane City.
Leading them was a figure seated within an enormously majestic palace.
The powerful auras emanating from them immediately made everyone in the city aware of their presence.
“It’s the cultivators from Qiankun Hall.1”
“Is that person Tai Cangzi from Qiankun Hall? The one rumored to be the most likely to ascend to immortality?”
Murmurs immediately erupted among the crowd as everyone’s gaze sharpened at Tai Cangzi’s arrival.
Jiang Chengxuan and his companions hadn’t expected the person they were just discussing to appear so abruptly.
By this moment, Tai Cangzi, leading a group of cultivators from Qiankun Hall, had already made their entrance into Blue Lane City.
As they entered, cultivators from various sects and families came forward to greet them.
Tai Cangzi acknowledged each with a nod.
However, amidst the courtesies, a distinct scoff cut through the atmosphere, catching everyone off guard with its boldness.
Everyone frowned, wondering who would dare such disrespect in the presence of the esteemed Holy Son of Qiankun Hall.
Yet, when they identified the scoffing individual as Gao Baiyue from the
Shadow Gate, their murmurs of disapproval halted.
Given Gao Baiyue’s standing as a significant figure within his sect, backed by a Mahayana Daolord, it was no surprise he was not afraid of the Holy Son of Qiankun Hall.
Tai Cangzi’s gaze momentarily darkened but chose not to engage with Gao Baiyue’s provocations.
Instead, he turned his attention back to the assembled crowd.
He did not intend to pay attention to Gao Baiyue, but Gao Baiyue did not intend to let it go.
He scoffed again and said bluntly,
It s quite unexpected. Has Qiankun Hall truly run out of capable individuals?
To think they’ve sent you again, someone who watches from the sidelines without lifting a finger to help.
Do you plan to stand by once more, watching us all fail, only to step in afterward to pick up the pieces?”
Upon hearing this, the previously lively crowd fell silent almost instantly.
Everyone turned their gaze toward Tai Cangzi, as if waiting for his response.
Only one person, like Gao Baiyue, suddenly walked out of the crowd and looked at Tai Cangzi in front of him.
“Fellow Daoist Tai Cangzi remains silent. Does this mean you are conceding to Fellow Daoist Gao’s accusations?”
