A Will Eternal – Chapter 374

Chapter 374: Hostages!

A boy appeared above, wearing a long red robe. As he took a step forward, the pressure that felt like heavenly might grow stronger.

Ripples even appeared on the surface of the Heavenspan River, and the plants and herbs in the four mountain ranges of the River Defying Sect bowed as if they were bowing in reverence.

If even plants and herbs were affected, there was almost no need to mention the cultivators. Frigidsect and the other ancestors only momentarily hesitated; as soon as they saw the boy, expressions of fear appeared on their faces.

Even Dire Skybanyan trembled.

"A god …." Frigidsect said, trembling. He exchanged glances with Crimsonsoul and Master Godwind. They had heard of this brat; in the vast eastern cultivation world, there was only one Deva Realm expert who maintained the physical appearance of a child….

He was one of the five Divine Realm experts of the Sky Star Dao Polarity Sect, Li Yuantian!

Frigidsect, Crimsonsoul and Master Godwind immediately clasped hands in official remarks and said, "Greetings, Senior Li!"

The other Nascent Soul cultivators were shaken, and quickly followed suit.

Bai Xiaochun stood to the side, and immediately started to get nervous. This was the first time he had seen a god, and from the heaven-like pressure weighing down on him, it made it seem like the entire world was being destroyed. His heart was pounding, he did not even dare to look at him directly. He couldn't help but be amazed at how this child, although not as tall as Bai Xiaochun himself, was extremely outstanding.

The boy looked at Bai Xiaochun with an enigmatic smile, but did not say anything to him. Then he waved his sleeve.

"Frigidsect, the three of you are leading the way to your great hall. I've got an important message for you! "

Frigidsect, Crimsonsoul and Master Godwind looked extremely grim as they voiced their agreement and then respectfully led the way. The Nascent Soul cultivators followed with serious expressions on their faces. The entire River Defying Sect fell into silence, and many people started to fidget, wondering why the Starry Sky Polarity Sect might have sent a god.

Bai Xiaochun's anxiety increased. For some reason, he got a premonition from the way the boy looked at him that something strange was going on. Upon returning to his eternal cave, he began to repair the damage caused by the lightning strikes, often looking over his shoulder to the top of the mountain. Suddenly, he thought of something, and opened his bag to check if the little turtle was still sleeping. After discovering that he is, he puts her back where he found her.

"In that way," he murmured to himself, "even if he suspects something happened after he woke up, I can only pretend not to know what he's talking about." Although he was happy with himself over how he handled this situation, he could not help but feel anxious about the arrival of the boy, and once again looked up towards the large hall.

At that moment, that boy-like Li Yuantian was sitting on the seat of honor in the great hall at River Defiance Mountain. Frigidsect, Crimsonsoul and Master Godwind stood respectfully to the side, while the other Nascent Soul cultivators waited outside.

"It seems that I am connected by fate to your River Suppression Sect," the boy said coldly. "I was the one who massacred the majority of the Sky River Court before your arrival." Frigidsect, Crimsonsoul and Master Godwind were shaken by those words.

"That's why I was chosen to come here today, to tell you about the other rules in the cultivation world of Middle Reaches.

“Often, the four great sects that are downstream of Starry Sky Dao Polarity Sect must send an important disciple or two upstream to become political hostages! [1. The practice of exchanging political hostages goes back to Chinese history up to the Han Dynasty (206 BC – 220 CE)]

"I'm here to take your hostages back with me to the Starry Sky Dao Polarity Sect." The boy looked at Frigidsect, Crimsonsoul and Master Godwind, whose expressions flickered in shock as they stared at him.

"Handera?" Although this was the first time Frigidsect had heard of such an arrangement, it was not something extraordinary. After all, the four great sects of the Middle Reach were an important part of the Starry Sky Polarity Sect, and were basically like feudal vassals.

Master Godwind took a deep breath and said, "We will definitely choose our hostage candidates as soon as possible!"

He was well aware that when a god came up with a request, it was not something they could refuse.

"You don't need to do anything" the boy said calmly. “I've made a decision for you. The main hostage was Bai Xiaochun. " The hearts of the three ancestors began to beat violently.

With that, the boy sent divine sense sweeping across the entire River Suppression Sect.

With the exception of the location where the actual spirit was resting, which was the place he did not want to disturb, the rest of the sect was like an open book to him, although it seemed, he did not pay attention to the monkey.

"eeee? There is something special about the girl …! ” A strange light flickered in the boy's eyes, and he waved his hand, causing an image of a young woman to appear, sitting cross-legged in meditation. The girl was none other than Gongsun Wan’er! “He'll be another hostage! Go ahead and tell them, and also make it clear that they can take no more than five fellow disciples of your sect to act as their Dao protectors. The entire group will come with me to the Starry Sky Polarity Sect to continue their cultivation. ”

The three patriarchs grumbled inwardly. The truth is, they don't really care about Gongsun Wan’er. Although he had venerable latent talents and potential, what they really cared about was Bai Xiaochun.

Master Godwind hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Senior–"

Instantly, Master Godwind turned extremely cold, almost as if he was frozen. He couldn't even speak a word.

Frigidsect quickly offered a further explanation. "Senior, there's something you might not be aware of. Even though Bai Xiaochun is our junior patriarch, the truth is that he is extremely mischievous and mischievous, and definitely not the ideal candidate for hostage. Senior, I'm just worried that he will cause trouble for your esteemed sect. ”

"That's right, Senior," Crimsonsoul said with a smile. He also realized how important Bai Xiaochun was to the River Suppression Sect. "Bai Xiaochun is not only naughty and mischievous, he likes to concoct medicine. The downside of it is that it always causes big problems, creates plagues and harms everyone in the area. Not even a chicken or a dog can escape its misery. If he goes to the Starry Sky Polarity Sect, I fear that he can really cause a great disaster …. "

"None of those things will be a problem" the boy replied. "The magnificent Starry Sky Dao Polarity Sect controls all eastern reach, and leads the cultivation world on behalf of the Heavenspan Sea. Do you really think we can't handle one Core Formation cultivator?

” Even if he is more naughty and mischievous than he is now, even if he causes worse disasters, even, do you really think he will bring the Sky Star Polarity Sect to his knees ?!

“He likes to concoct medicine? Well, in the Starry Sky Polarity Sect, we have the best pill furnaces, the best medicinal plants, and the best concocting facilities. Whatever problems he had with concocting medicine, they could be resolved there. Fear not! Bai Xiaochun might become a hostage, but at the same time, he would become a disciple of the Starry Dao Sky Polarity Sect!

“Alright, the problem has been resolved, and there will be no more discussions. Go awayl. In three days, I will bring your disciples back to the Starry Sky Dao Polarity Sect! " Obviously, the boy won't argue anymore. Waving his hand, he sent out a soft light that brought Frigidsect, Crimsonsoul and Master Godwind out of the large hall, after which the door slammed shut fiercely.

Outside the hall, Frigidsect, Crimsonsoul and Master Godwind looked at each other with grim expressions. Unfortunately, there was nothing they could do in this situation.

Master Godwind sighed and said, “Well, we don't have much time. It won't be difficult to explain this matter to the girl, but to Bai Xiaochun .. Brother Frigidsect, why don't you talk to her first? We can go later to offer more explanations. We also need to think about which disciple to send with him as the protector of the Dao. ”

Of course, Master Godwind was very worried about all this. Bai Xiaochun was a Blood Ancestor, and if an accident happened after he left, the Blood Stream Division would be at a serious disadvantage.

"Well, at least he can take Dao protector, right?" Crimsonsoul said through gritted teeth. “Although he can only take people of his generation, they will at least help. Whoever he wanted to go with him would have no choice in this matter. I will explain everything to them! "

Frigidsect sighed. Frowning, he headed to Bai Xiaochun's immortal cave, where he found the agitated and agitated Bai Xiaochun, and then explained the situation to him.

Bai Xiaochun's jaw dropped, and he looked at the Frigidsect, his mind spinning. "Handera? The Starry Sky Dao Polarity Sect? ”

He had read about political hostages in ancient records, and knew that they had always suffered all sorts of tragic and miserable fates. He was especially worried about going alone; being alone in a strange sect didn't seem safe at all.

The River Suppression Sect is incredible! She had a very high standing, many female disciples liked her, and people gave her official greetings wherever she went. The thought of just going to the Starry Sky Dao Sect Polarity caused his vision to become dim.

Shouting, he slid forward and grabbed onto the Frigidsect's foot.

"Patriark, I don't want to go!" he wailed, “I will miss you so much! This is my house! Don't force me to leave!

“I just made a heroic contribution to this sect! I'm .. I'm junior patriarch!

“For many years now, I have always been ready to defend the sect during difficult times. I saved my fellow disciples from the Luochen Clan, I made a name for myself in the Falling Sword Gorge, I disguised myself in the Blood Flow Sect! But my biggest contribution is to the River Suppression Sect! Patriarch, I don't want to go!

“I can't bear to part with all of you. I will miss my fellow students! Don't force me to leave, please …! Tell Shangguan Tianyou to leave! He'll be a good choice. He is heroic, confident, and very handsome! Heaven and earth will cry if he is not a hostage. Or what about Song Que? The Starry Sky Dao Polarity Sect does not have a person like him, right? So send him! Or what about Beihan Lie or Nine-Isles? That would be a good choice! If not, then what about Chen Manyao. Send him …. "

Frigidsect felt a headache. Sighing, he looked at Bai Xiaochun and softly said, "Xiaochun, if I had a choice in this matter, I would definitely not make you leave."

Vibration flowed over Bai Xiaochun, and he looked at Frigidsect, it seemed like he was about to cry.

"I really have to go?"

Frigidsect ruffled Bai Xiaochun's hair. A kind look appeared in his eyes as he said, "Yes, right. However, you can bring some Dao protectors with you. Also, it won't be long. You'll be back here at home before you know it. "
