Chapter 191: Long Time No See
The 18 bandits surrounded Miss Hong.
Blood vessels bulged in their eyes, making them look extremely terrifying.
Their auras were also stacked together, enveloping the pavilion.
“You people of the Heavenly Dao Sect, why do you keep minding the business of others everywhere? We never had any grievances between the two of us in the past, but why did you directly seal us?”
“If it weren’t for the fact that we had a trump card up our sleeves, we would have remained sealed until the dawn of this era! Making us miss the start of this brand-new era is an offense deserving of death! You deserve to be cut into pieces!” A bandit covered in scars scolded.
He was filled with fury from the bottom of his heart.
His eyes shone red from the sheer anger he was experiencing right now.
“Letting you all come into being so early into this era is unfair to the people that belong to this era. The Great Dao is impartial, and the Heavenly Dao is heartless to those harbingers of injustice. That is why we are doing our best to seal people like you all until the time is right…”
“We are simply doing it on behalf of the heavens.” Miss Hong calmly retorted.
“Bullsh*t!”
“The existence of cultivators in itself is already going against the heavens. It’s the same in every era. In our era, weren’t we also ruled by the people of the previous era at the start of that era? It was only later that we managed to overthrow them.”
A bandit with a dark expression coldly snorted.
Miss Hong looked at him and calmly refuted. “The path of cultivation is subjective …”
“Some experts may want to defy the heavens, some may choose to follow the Heavenly Dao, some are satisfied with being invincible in the mortal realm, while some choose to rule over the lands. This is the beauty of the cultivation path. There are no absolutes.”
“Of course, the disciples of the Heavenly Dao Sect naturally have to follow the Heavenly Dao.”
“Since you said that you are obeying the Heavenly Dao, did your Heavenly Dao told you that you won’t be able to escape death today?” A sinister and awe-inspiring bandit sized up Miss Hong with a lecherous gaze as he chuckled.
Miss Hong’s eyes were cold. “Put away the dirty thoughts in your mind. Even if I can’t escape death today, I can still bring some of you down with me to hell.”
“Make a move against me and you’ll die!”
Miss Hong looked at this bandit with a sharp gaze. She scared him until his expression turned ugly. The bandit gnashed his teeth, but he didn’t dare to refute her words.
He was afraid that when she became desperate, Miss Hong would selectively pull him along with her to death.
“All right, there’s no point in us talking so much. No matter what you say, you won’t be able to escape from us even if you grew wings right now. Considering that, how about you obediently tell us why you came here to this place?”
“Perhaps if we liked your answer, then we can let you escape with your life.” The old man who looked to be the leader of the Eighteen Bandits of the Northwest had been watching silently all this time. Finally, he opened his mouth and his voice was unexpectedly deep.
He didn’t mince his words and directly asked the question he wanted to ask the most.
The other bandits instantly quietened down.
Miss Hong’s pupils shrank.
But she calmly replied, “Everyone outside knows that I’m here to establish a sect. The Heavenly Dao Sect already has some disciples on our side.”
“The Heavenly Dao Sect don’t just casually recruit disciples. Every member of the Heavenly Dao Sect must be fated to the Heavenly Dao.” The old man retorted indifferently.
“How do you know about the recruitment process of our Heavenly Dao Sect?”
Miss Hong frowned at him.
“I’ve traveled far and wide…”
“I know quite a lot about the stories of the previous era. The recruitment of disciples in the Heavenly Dao Sect all depends on fate, and everything that the people of the Heavenly Dao Sect does isn’t done so casually…”
“You’ve stayed in the Northwest Territory for all these years without leaving. You must have discovered something or are plotting to do something.”
The Boss of the bandits smiled confidently as he made a sidelong glance at Miss Hong.
“Now tell me, as a member of the Heavenly Dao Sect, what exactly did you discover in the Northwest Territory?”
Miss Hong glanced at him and said coldly, “You’ve seen the Northwest Territory too. Other than this place, the other places are deserted. What can I possibly find here?”
“Other people can’t, but you definitely can—because you are a member of the Heavenly Dao Sect!” Seeing that Miss Hong wasn’t cooperating, the Boss’s attitude also became cold as he coldly berated.
“Why are you so superstitious about the people from the Heavenly Dao Sect?” Miss Hong asked curiously. Her attitude was relaxed. She crossed her legs, revealing her snow-white beautiful legs under her red dress. She looked sexy and charming.
The other bandits drooled as they watched.
Their eyes widened as they stood rooted and frozen.
But the bandit boss didn’t even look at her body.
He wasn’t moved by her appearance at all.
He looked directly at Miss Hong’s face and recalled. “Because when I was young, I personally saw a member of the Heavenly Dao Sect come to the Northwest Territory. That person fought with an immortal…”
“The Northwest Territory almost collapsed from the battle.”
“After their battle, this Mountain Sea Realm appeared.”
Miss Hong’s eyes narrowed.
The bandit boss carefully observed the changes in her expression as he proudly smiled and said, “After that battle, that member of the Heavenly Dao Sect and the immortal disappeared from this land. I saw with my own eyes that they broke through a new world and went to that world. I’ve been here all these years and never left because of that new world.”
“Now would you please tell me, what exactly is that new world?”
The bandit boss asked solemnly.
“I don’t know what you are talking about!” Miss Hong still shook her head, unwilling to answer.
“Since you refuse to tell me, then don’t blame me for being impolite.” The bandit boss sneered.
“What do you mean by ‘impolite’?” Miss Hong took a deep breath and asked.
Although she knew that she couldn’t win against them, as a member of the Heavenly Dao Sect, she wouldn’t answer his question and leak that matter out no matter what.
Yes, she might die today, but she was still confident in taking a few of them with her.
“You said that you can bring some of us down with you to hell? You’re underestimating us too much! The 18 of us have accompanied each other for thousands of years, we’ve cultivated together and shared each other’s honor and disgrace.”
“Our long relationship stems from the fact that we are proficient in an array formation called the 18 Arhats Formation. Once it activates, the 18 of us will become a single entity. Against our combined, concentrated might, you have no path before you other than death.”
“But don’t worry about dying just yet…”
“Once you’re defeated, I’ll seal your cultivation base and you shall be my 18th concubine.”
The bandit boss revealed a complacent look.
Boom!
As soon as he was done speaking, the auras of the 18 bandits connected, forming a closed loop. The auras of 18 Boundless Realm experts were extremely terrifying when combined together to form a single entity.
Miss Hong’s expression changed.
“The infamous Eighteen Bandits of the Northwest have actually cultivated the 18 Arhats of the Buddhist sects. It’s simply a joke if this gets out.” Miss Hong couldn’t help but mock them.
“We—the 18 Arhats—are the 18 Arhats of Slaughter. We reversed the teachings of Buddhism and have fallen into the demonic path. In doing so, we are naturally very powerful. This is also our trump card and the reason why we are like fish in water within the Northwest Territory.”
The bandit boss sneered.
“Although you’ve crossed ten steps in the Boundless Realm, you won’t be able to defeat us.”
“You will definitely lose…”
“You should just obediently accept your fate.”
The bandit boss proudly smiled.
Rumble!
The rest of the 18 Arhats of Slaughter also laughed. Their strength was becoming more and more terrifying as time passed by. Their combined auras suppressed everyone in the pavilion as the building itself started to tremble from their might.
Miss Hong’s aura was sealed by their combined auras, and she was also being surrounded.
She had nowhere to escape as her expression turned ugly.
She clenched her fists tight, feeling extremely vexed.
But all of a sudden, a calm voice sounded.
“Why are you obediently accepting your fate?”
This voice passed through the 18 Arhats Formation and rang in Miss Hong’s ear.
It made her raise her head in surprise as she looked at the door.
A figure walked in from the door that was facing the light.
The young man that came in looked majestic and elegant.
Under the illumination of the myriad lights of the world, he walked into the pavilion.
The 18 bandits were enraged.
But Lin Jiufeng ignored them and their formation.
He passed by them without any resistance and arrived in front of Miss Hong.
“Long time no see!” Lin Jiufeng calmly greeted.
