Chapter 238: They All Knew She Was Lying
"Fellow Daoist Yi, feel free to share your thoughts. As long as it benefits our Threefold Heaven Star Continent, we will definitely give our full support," Liu Yinyu was the first to stand up and voice her stance.
The Threefold Heaven Star Continent was a colossal star continent, but being colossal didn't mean it was completely safe.
In this stretch of the starry river, there were many other cultivation planets similar to the Threefold Heaven Star Continent.
The Threefold Heaven Star Continent was almost defenseless.
If another planet invaded, it would be an easy task.
Besides planetary invasions, not too far from the Threefold Heaven Star Continent, there was also a Savage Beast Galaxy.
This galaxy was filled with all sorts of demonic beasts, savage beasts, star beasts, and even independent insect planets.
There had been more than one human planet that had been destroyed by the demonic beasts or insect demons from these planets.
As Liu Yinyu stood up to voice her stance, the sect leaders of various sects also stood up one after another.
If the Threefold Heaven Star Continent were invaded by another star continent, without Earth Immortal experts, its destruction would be certain.
Forget other planets; just being discovered by a single demonic beast planet from the Savage Beast Galaxy would put the Threefold Heaven Star Continent in grave danger.
Yi Qianxing clasped his fists and said, "Everyone should know why Earth Immortal experts who have reached the peak choose to go to the Ancient Primordial Battlefield. It's because they know that besides the Ascension Tower, the only place where they can find the chance to ascend to the Immortal Realm is the Primordial Battlefield. However, the Primordial Battlefield is too terrifying. So far, no one who has entered has ever returned. My idea is that we should slowly reclaim the Ancient Primordial Battlefield. This process may cost many lives, but it concerns the future of our Threefold Heaven Star Continent. I believe we have no choice but to do this."
Everyone fell silent.
They all understood what Yi Qianxing meant.
It was about pushing the edges of the Ancient Primordial Battlefield inward.
Just like the current edges of the Primordial Battlefield, which were once dangerous areas, through the efforts of generations, the Ancient Primordial Battlefield had been gradually pushed forward.
Some areas that were once deep within the battlefield had now become the edges.
This way, the safe outer regions would gradually increase.
"Perhaps one day, we can truly expose the Ancient Primordial Battlefield to everyone's eyes. At that time, whether or not we find the chance to ascend to the Immortal Realm within the battlefield, the number of Earth Immortal cultivators on our Threefold Heaven Star Continent will not continue to decrease. If we do find the source of the Immortal Fate, wouldn't protecting it be like having a second Ascension Tower?"
"I believe this is the only way out for our Threefold Heaven Star Continent. Fellow Daoist Yi Qianxing and I have discussed this for a long time, and we think that apart from this path, we won't find a new way out in the short term."
Following Yi Qianxing's words, a tall, handsome man with a jade-like face spoke up.
Many people were stunned, wondering who this man was and how he could speak at such an important occasion.
The key was his tone, which seemed to place him on equal footing with Yi Qianxing.
Seeing that many didn't recognize the man, Yi Qianxing quickly introduced him, "This is Lin Yuqi, the master of Baiyue Villa. Fellow Daoist Lin has just stepped into the Earth Immortal realm. He happened to meet me while I was investigating the situation at the Primordial Battlefield."
Hearing that Lin Yuqi was an Earth Immortal cultivator, everyone in the hall showed deep respect.
Qiao Sha even broke out in a cold sweat.
The entire Desolate God Sect currently had no Earth Immortal experts; their only Earth Immortal, Ji Xinting, had gone missing.
"Qiao Sha pays his respects to Senior Lin," Qiao Sha stood up nervously and bowed.
He knew very well that Lin Yuqi hadn't come to attend his disciple's engagement ceremony for his sake.
Lin Yuqi was here for the matter of the Primordial Battlefield.
Lin Yuqi merely nodded slightly and said nothing more.
Yi Qianxing continued, "Fellow Daoist Lin and I believe that to make our Threefold Heaven Star Continent stronger, we must make the Primordial Battlefield safer. We have decided to hold a grand assembly of all sects on the Threefold Heaven Star Continent at the Datong Square, the former site of the Datong Academy, to discuss the exploration of the Primordial Battlefield."
The fall of the Datong Academy was also related to the Primordial Battlefield.
In the early days of the Ascension Realm on the Threefold Heaven Star Continent, the most powerful sect wasn't the Desolate God Sect but the Datong Academy.
The Datong Academy was full of talented individuals, producing countless exceptional disciples and experts.
For example, the rogue cultivator Shan Beishu, whom Yi Qianxing mentioned earlier, was from the Datong Academy.
After the academy's fall, he became a rogue cultivator.
Otherwise, how could an ordinary rogue cultivator so easily become a peak Earth Immortal expert? If rogue cultivators could become Earth Immortals so easily, few would bother joining sects.
The Datong Academy became the top sect because of the Primordial Battlefield.
On the battlefield, the academy gained too many treasures, resources, and cultivation insights.
However, its downfall was also due to the Primordial Battlefield.
The battlefield was filled with too many dangers and uncertainties.
Even today, no one in the Ascension Realm knows how the Datong Academy fell.
All they know is that one night, the academy turned into ruins.
"I firmly support this and will definitely attend the assembly at Datong Square," Liu Yinyu was the first to stand up in support once again.
The other sects and elders also stood up to express their support.
Even Hu Wuxin, along with the representatives from the Cultivation Realm, stood up to show their backing.
To the cultivators in the hall, those from the Cultivation Realm were nothing more than ants.
The Ascension Realm currently had very few Earth Immortal experts, but everyone present was at least a Human Immortal or a Half-Step Human Immortal.
The weakest were True God Realm cultivators.
As for the Void God Realm, they weren't qualified to attend such a meeting.
Hu Wuxin and the others were here not because of their cultivation or the forces they represented but because they stood for the Cultivation Realm.
Yi Qianxing believed that the survival of the Threefold Heaven Star Continent wasn't just a matter for the Ascension Realm; it was also a matter for the Cultivation Realm.
Hence, representatives from the Cultivation Realm had to be present.
"Since that's the case, let's set the meeting time. Three months from now, on the first day of the month, we'll meet at Datong Square," Yi Qianxing declared loudly.
With that, the engagement ceremony finally came to an end.
Only then did everyone realize that Qiao Sha, the new sect master of the Desolate God Sect, had merely been helping Yi Qianxing send out invitations.
"Master, if it weren't for Senior Lou's keen eye, that Qing Yu would have harmed the innocent Ding Huan. That person is truly evil," Han Xiaonü said as they left the Desolate God Sect, still unable to understand how someone could be so wicked.
Liu Yinyu sighed, "Xiaonü, you can't be so naive in the future. Do you really think only Lou Fenyan saw through Qing Yu's lies? I'm certain that at least half the people in that hall knew she was lying."
Han Xiaonü was stunned and asked, "If everyone knew Qing Yu was lying, why did they let her continue to frame the innocent Ding Huan? How could they be so despicable?"
Liu Yinyu remained silent for a while before saying, "Xiaonü, you might very well enter the Primordial Battlefield in the future, and you might also perish there..."
"Master, I'm not afraid. I'd rather die in the Primordial Battlefield than marry that disgusting Yi Jiang," Han Xiaonü said without hesitation.
Liu Yinyu smiled bitterly, "You're too trusting and easily deceived. It's mainly because you lack experience. I hope you can change through life-and-death trials. If you stay like this, you'll eventually meet your end. So, it's better to let you adapt early... Do you know why no one stopped or refuted Qing Yu's nonsense, even though they all knew she was lying? Not only that, but Shi Qiqiu even acted indignant. How shameless."
"Why?" Han Xiaonü instinctively asked.
Liu Yinyu said calmly, "Because they needed an excuse to go after Ding Huan, and Qing Yu was giving them that excuse."
Han Xiaonü fell silent, realizing how naive she had been.
After a while, she said, "Thankfully, Senior Lou pointed out that Qing Yu was lying and that Ding Huan was being wronged. Otherwise, if Ding Huan had died, it would have been such a tragedy..."
Liu Yinyu gently stroked Han Xiaonü's hair and said helplessly, "Lou Fenyan also knew that everyone else was aware Qing Yu was lying. She just made sure they couldn't find an excuse to go after Ding Huan. As for Ding Huan being wronged? I'm afraid only you think that. I'm certain he wasn't wronged. Even if he didn't have the treasures Qing Yu mentioned, he would have other treasures. Otherwise, do you think those old foxes would have needed Qing Yu to give them an excuse?"
"Master, how do you know Ding Huan wasn't wronged?"
"Wronged? If he were wronged, he wouldn't have led so many people through the Great Chasm Canyon. If he were wronged, he wouldn't have killed Yi Wandao and Tan Yanxiao, two Soul Formation experts. If he were wronged, he wouldn't have taken over Purple Mist Valley and established his own sect. I'm telling you, if you ever meet this person, stay as far away from him as possible. He's cunning and definitely not someone to be trifled with."
Hearing her master's words, Han Xiaonü couldn't help but sigh.
Why were these people so scheming?
"During this time, I need to visit the Blue Star Sect in the Cultivation Realm. Xiaonü, when you return to the sect, focus on your cultivation. Strive to condense your True Core as soon as possible. That way, if you enter the Primordial Battlefield, you'll have a chance to protect yourself."
Liu Yinyu was truly worried about her disciple.
"Master, I understand. Don't worry," Han Xiaonü, however, was full of confidence in herself.
