Stealing the Heavens.

Chapter 100 Even the Sect Master is Missing

The next morning, the rare sunshine shone down, making the snow-capped mountains even brighter.

Two figures, one in black and one in blue, flew rapidly as the sunlight streamed in, heading straight for the Demon Hunter's camp.

Elder Fengji was the first to step out of the tent and greet the two figures. He had been in charge of making contact along the way.

"Elder Fengji, this is the sect master of my Azure Lotus Sword Sect," Elder Li Mei quickly introduced.

"Feng Ji greets Sect Master Xue Bing." Elder Feng Ji quickly stood in mid-air and clasped his hands in greeting to the woman in the black dress.

"Where is Zi Dong? Tell him to come see me, the sect leader!" The woman in the black dress was as cold as ice, and her voice was even more chilling.

"Sect Master Xuebing, is Ancestor Xuelian not here?" Elder Fengji asked neither humbly nor arrogantly; he was now a follower of the Eastern Dao Ancestor.

"Our ancestor is in seclusion and has summoned me to see Dao Ancestor Donglai!" Sect Master Xuebing was somewhat angry, clearly dissatisfied with Elder Fengji's attitude.

"Please wait a moment, Sect Master Xuebing. I will go and invite Zidong immediately." Elder Fengji clasped his hands in a fist salute again, then turned and flew towards the camp.

"Elder Li, did that spirit really claim to be the Dao Ancestor of the East?!" Sect Master Xuebing asked Elder Fengji, who was even more furious. He quickly confirmed it again.

"Sect Master, I absolutely did not mishear, and they want to see the Ancestor directly," Elder Li Mei quickly said.

"Hmph, I, the sect master, want to see who this is!" The Snow Ice Sect Master simply didn't believe it, which is why she didn't report to the Snow Lotus Ancestor and came to investigate herself.

Elder Fengji rushed to Zidong's tent, wanting him to see Sect Master Xuebing, but Zidong refused to see him.

Donglai Ziqi told Zidong that the Snow Lotus Ancestor and the Snow Ice Sect Master were not qualified to see Donglai Daozu.

Elder Fengji stood at the tent entrance for a moment, then closed his eyes to cultivate again before turning and leaving.

However, he did not go to see the Snow Ice Sect Master, but instead went to Feng Qingwu's tent, hoping that she would persuade Zi Dong to see the Snow Ice Sect Master.

After all, he is the sect leader of the Azure Lotus Sword Sect. No matter what his current status is, he should give sect leader Xuebing face.

“Uncle Ji, I think Zi Dong did the right thing.” Feng Qingwu said something that greatly surprised Elder Feng Ji:

“Donglai Daozu is not someone anyone can meet. Zi Dong is no longer a disciple of Yuntian Sect.”

"Qingwu, how am I supposed to tell Sect Master Xuebing?!" Elder Fengji was extremely troubled, as this would affect the relationship between Yuntian Sect and Qinglian Sword Sect.

“Uncle Ji, Sect Master Xuebing is here to see Dao Ancestor Donglai. Zi Dong is not important to her,” Feng Qingwu pointed out.

Elder Fengji nodded in realization and immediately left Feng Qingwu's tent to see Sect Master Xuebing.

Although Zi Dong is still a junior disciple of the Yuntian Sect, he has another identity, which is why the Xuebing Sect Master came for him.

Elder Fengji was surprised by the reaction of the Snow Ice Sect Master. He simply instructed Elder Li Mei to lead the Zi Dong group to Snow Lotus Peak.

"Elder Fengji, isn't the Yuntian Sect's behavior a blatant disregard for our Qinglian Sword Sect?!"

After watching Sect Master Xuebing leave, Elder Li Mei immediately questioned him.

"Elder Li Mei, Sect Master Xuebing definitely doesn't want to see Zi Dong, but Dao Ancestor Donglai doesn't want to see him, so there's nothing we can do!"

Elder Fengji brought up Feng Qingwu's words, saying that this matter had nothing to do with Yuntian Sect or Zidong.

"Zi Dong is now the spokesperson for the Eastern Dao Ancestor; he represents the Eastern Dao Ancestor!" Elder Li Mei continued to question angrily.

“That’s right, Elder Li Mei. You also said that Zi Dong is just a representative of the Eastern Dao Ancestor. He is not the Eastern Dao Ancestor. So he has to ask permission before he can see anyone. Since he won’t see anyone, it must be because the Eastern Dao Ancestor doesn’t want to see him!” Elder Feng Ji was a cunning old fox. With just a few words, he made Elder Li Mei so angry that she could only glare at him and lead everyone to Snow Lotus Peak.

However, after walking for a short while, Zi Dong and his group became increasingly puzzled, as they hadn't encountered a single person.

The Great Snow Mountain is all the territory of the Azure Lotus Sword Sect, which not only has many cultivators, but also many ordinary people.

Moreover, other forces often come to exchange ideas. Although it is not as bustling as a market, there are still people coming and going. How could you not see a single person?

"Something might have happened. You all take your time, I'll go check it out!" Elder Li Mei said before Elder Feng Ji could ask any questions, and then flew away.

"Everyone be careful!" Elder Fengji quickly warned everyone, sensing that this was aimed at them.

All the elders became alert, protecting the members of the Demon Hunter Team and moving very slowly.

"The purple aura from the east is all your fault! You'll be responsible for any trouble that arises!" Zi Dong shouted angrily in his soul.

"If the demon race and the witch race come, I will devour them all. There are no demons in the Great Snow Mountain, so the Daoist sect dares not make a move!" Donglai said arrogantly.

Zi Dong didn't say anything more. As long as the purple aura from the east didn't fall into slumber, it would be fine. Otherwise, it would be troublesome if a group of demons came.

But the purple aura from the east was quickly proven wrong; there were no demons or witches among them, only demons!

They kept ambushing everyone and even set up the Heavenly Demon Formation, surrounding Zi Dong and his group at the foot of a large mountain.

“Donglai Ziqi, didn’t you say there were no demons in the Great Snow Mountain? Where did these guys come from?!” Zi Dong immediately questioned angrily.

[It must be the Azure Lotus Sword Sect's doing, trying to lure out the Eastern Dao Ancestor!] Eastern Purple Qi was also furious.

"What should we do then?!" Zi Dong wanted Donglai Ziqi to help. Although their lives were not in danger, being trapped here was too embarrassing for Yuntian Sect.

"Leave it to me!" As soon as Donglai Ziqi finished speaking, purple mist surged out of Zi Dong's body and immediately condensed into an amethyst giant.

Instead of charging directly at the surrounding demon cultivators, he continuously waved his two large hands, unleashing a barrage of purple mist fists.

The most powerful force of the demon race is devouring, so Taoist cultivators will suffer greatly when fighting against them, as their true energy will be constantly devoured.

However, the demons were unable to devour the purple mist, and the power of these purple mist fists was immense, quickly shattering the Heavenly Demon Formation.

The demon cultivators immediately scattered and fled. They could not withstand the bombardment of the purple mist fist. Although they would not die, they would be covered in wounds.

"Donglai Ziqi, why don't you kill the demon cultivators?!" Zi Dong seized the opportunity to ask.

[Killing these demon cultivators brings no benefit!] Donglai Ziqi scoffed; he wouldn't do something that didn't bring him any benefit.

"What benefits would the demon race and the witch race gain?!" Zi Dong never expected that the reason Donglai Ziqi didn't kill the demon race was because of this.

"I didn't kill any demon or witch cultivators; I just devoured them to enhance my spiritual power," Donglai Ziqi explained.

"The demon's devouring power will destroy your spirit, right?!" Zi Dong finally understood that the Eastern Purple Qi would not kill any life, but would only devour them.

[It won't cause damage, but it will affect the condensation of the spirit.] Donglai Ziqi certainly wouldn't admit it, otherwise he would be looked down upon by Zi Dong.

"Then why don't you kill the cultivators of the demon, monster, and witch races?!" Zi Dong continued to press, this question had been troubling him for a long time.

"Don't you know that killing affects one's fortune?!" Donglai Ziqi asked in a strange tone.
