Chapter 197: Powerful Yi Qinglan, Emperor Rank Exorcist!
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was in an uproar.
The elders looked at Yi Qinglan in disbelief.
Did they hear correctly?
To say that the Supreme Dao Palace was a Bastard Dao?
Daoist Yi was too blind.
Chen Yundao's eyes narrowed slightly as a faint light flickered within his wide sleeve, as if something was brewing.
The pressure of the entire palace had dropped to the freezing point.
However, Yi Qinglan remained calm. Her eyes were clear as she calmly looked at them.
"Please take back what you just said. You are insulting my Supreme Dao Palace!" Chen Yundao spoke in a low voice.
Yi Qinglan replied, "It's not this poor Daoist who insulted your sect. It's that group of escaping disciples."
Chen Yundao snorted coldly and said, "They've only made a mistake in their judgement of the situation. They've misjudged the strength of the two sides. If the beast tide really can't be stopped, then according to Daoist Yi, our sect's disciples will be buried with them?"
Yi Qinglan shook her head and said, "You haven't even fought yet, yet your sect's disciples already think that the beast tide can't be stopped?"
"They have their own judgments." Chen Yundao said, "A cultivator's life is also his life. He shouldn't die for nothing, right?"
"Judgment…" Yi Qinglan's tone carried a hint of ridicule. "That's why according to Sect Master Chen, you can escape when you feel danger. Why didn't Lin Langyue escape?"
"Why didn't Yue Jianli flee?
"Why didn't Li Ran and Qin Ruyan escape?
"Could it be that they were too slow to sense danger?"
Chen Yundao's expression changed when he heard this.
Yi Qinglan continued, "There's no problem protecting yourself, but since that's the case, keep your head up.
"You’re obviously a deserter, and you’re still shamelessly accusing the hero of being a devil and not worthy of glory?'
"Doesn't Chief Chen find it laughable?"
The hall became quiet.
The expression in Chen Yundao's eyes changed, making it difficult to see clearly.
Besides being furious, there was a trace of shame and helplessness in his heart.
No matter what, as a sect of the Righteous Path, in the face of human tribulation, it was true that his disciples fled without fighting.
It was also a stain that could not be removed.
But because of the reputation of the Supreme Dao Palace, others were only cursing in private. Who would dare to say it in front of him?
Yi Qinglan dared.
Chen Yundao said expressionlessly, "I didn't expect to see you for so long. Daoist Yi's eloquence is getting better and better."
Faced with his ridicule, Yi Qinglan didn't move at all.
"If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave."
Chen Yundao pulled up a cold smile and said, "I've heard some interesting news recently. I heard that Li Ran went to Tianshu Institutes's mountain gate and stayed for a few days. Is this really true?"
Yi Qinglan's eyes narrowed. "Sect Master Chen seems to be very interested in the affairs of Tianshu Institute."
Chen Yundao shook his head and smiled. "I'm just curious. I want to see if the Tianshu Institute has joined the Devil Dao."
These words were rather heartbreaking.
"This has nothing to do with Chief Chen. I won't have to trouble you." Yi Qinglan stood up and waved her white Daoist robe, as if she could not be bothered to explain.
At this time, an elder from the side said unhappily, "Let's forget about colluding with the Devil Dao. They let a man go up the mountain? A group of female cultivators were truly ignorant!"
His voice wasn't loud, but it was clearly heard by everyone.
Chen Yundao's expression changed. "Shut up."
Before he could finish speaking, the elder was stunned. Like a statue, he didn' t move at all.
Then, his body rapidly aged. His skin withered up like a tree bark, and his originally bright eyes became extremely turbid.
The powerful tribulation crossing cultivator was now lifeless, as if he was an old man.
He looked at his withered hands and said with a trembling voice, "My cultivation… My cultivation base is gone!"
Yi Qinglan said calmly, "If you don't choose your words, then I'll destroy your cultivation for a hundred years."
The other Elders trembled, their legs becoming a bit weak.
Without even moving a finger, she cut a hundred years worth of cultivation from a tribulation crossing expert?
This was just too terrifying.
Chen Yundao's sleeves fluttered as he said coldly, "Daoist Yi, this is an elder of my Supreme Dao Sect!"
Yi Qinglan said indifferently, "Then I will trouble Sect Master Chen to change an elder."
After saying that, she disappeared from the main hall.
Chen Yundao's eyes burned with rage, but he tried his best to suppress it, as if he was hesitating.
In the end, he restrained himself.
The Elder who had lost his cultivation was kneeling on the ground. "I'm loyal to the sect. Now that my cultivation has been crippled, please help me, Sect Master!"
Chen Yundao shook his head and said, "I dare say Yi Qinglan is being merciful… If you're still alive, she's giving me face."
"Ah?" The elder was stunned.
"Emperors cannot be humiliated! You've lived for hundreds of years, yet you don't understand this?"
Chen Yundao impatiently waved his hand. "Bring him down. Remember not to speak nonsense in your next life."
“……”
Amidst waves of miserable wails, the elder was taken out of the hall.
The others looked at each other in dismay.
Someone couldn't help but ask, "Sect Master, isn' t Daoist Yi clear and indifferent? Why would she cripple someone's cultivation just because of a single disagreement?"
“That's right, this is too reckless!"
"Attacking directly within the Supreme Dao Palace. This…"
Chen Yundao's eyes flickered. "Yi Qinglan, she's just like Leng Wuyan. She's a lunatic!
"I only wanted to test her attitude today, but I didn't expect her reaction to be so intense.
"Looks like she’s going to die to protect Li Ran!
"If she and Leng Wuyan join forces, I'm afraid the entire Vast Land will be overturned!"
Other people only knew that he had suppressed the three sects by himself. His hands were covered in the blood of the Devil Dao, and he was known as "killing daoist".
However, he didn't know that after Leng Wuyan rose up, the devil flames surged into the sky and reversed the Heavenly Dao, and no one in the world could stop her.
In the end, Yi Qinglan stood up and held down the invincible Youluo Temple.
Otherwise, Chen Yundao alone would be utterly unable to stop that witch.
Hu.
Chen Yundao spat out a mouthful of foul air.
Ever since Venerable Hao Yue's incident, he had been restrained and suppressed.
"Li Ran…
"What's so special about this guy? Why is everyone protecting him?"
Chen Yundao had never been so sullen.
—
Yi Qinglan stepped through the void and instantly returned to the sect.
She had lost her composure today.
Ever since Li Ran came out of Death End Grounds, she had been holding back her anger. When she thought of how that guy had seen her… She had a strong urge to kill.
But she could not kill Li Ran.
Not only could he not be killed, but she also had to protect him and prevent him from dying.
Yi Qinglan couldn't help but get more infuriated.
It just so happened that Chen Yundao had delivered himself to her door, so he naturally became a punching bag.
"Let's go take a look at that little thief. If his soul recovers, then I’ll hurry up and send him away. Otherwise, there's no telling what absurd things he'll do."
Yi Qinglan's thoughts flashed as she appeared in Li Ran's room.
The corner of her mouth twitched when she saw the two of them sleeping soundly on the bed.
"This poor Daoist will help you settle things outside…
"You're sleeping here with my disciple?!”
