Chapter 414 Evil God's Aura
The matter of attending the Dao conference at Hehuan Sect was thus settled.
Yan Xiaoru had no objections to the invitation from Hehuan Sect, but Li Muyang was not interested.
He even felt that going there would be a waste of time, better spent playing games at home.
Perhaps after he completed "Dragonkin's Awakening," he would break through to the Spirit Travel Realm.
However, the beauty pill from Hehuan Sect was full of temptation, Yan Xiaoru really wanted it, and since attending the Dao conference was a command personally endorsed by the Sect Master, Li Muyang found it hard to refuse.
So, he and Yan Xiaoru roughly finalized the details of attending the Dao conference and then returned to their residence.
Li Muyang had just returned to his residence when his adoptive sister Li Yuechan came back.
"Hehe... Brother..."
The little girl, previously upset about the theft of the Fairy Qinghe statue, now had a face full of ingratiating smiles.
Li Muyang looked at her speechlessly and said, "What do you want to say?"
The girl had "I need a favor from you" written all over her face, without even trying to hide it.
Upon hearing Li Muyang's inquiry, the girl immediately responded excitedly.@@@@
"Brother, I heard from Xiaoshun that the Young Sect Master of Hehuan Sect invited you to the Dao conference and will give you a beauty pill!"
"Brother, this beauty pill..."
The girl's eyes were full of little stars.
Li Muyang, however, abruptly cut her off, "Don't even think about it, someone has already reserved it; it's not your turn."
Li Muyang mercilessly shattered his sister's fantasy.
It seemed the allure of the beauty pill was indeed great, even his adoptive sister was tempted.
Upon hearing Li Muyang's refusal, Li Yuechan immediately pouted unhappily.
"I just knew it..."
She was aware of the relationship between Li Muyang and Yan Xiaoru, but which female cultivator could resist the temptation of Hehuan Sect's beauty pill?
Li Yuechan's eyes twinkled as she leaned in closer and proposed, "How about this, when we attend the Dao conference, let's make an effort and strive to get you appointed as the Protector for the Young Sect Master of Hehuan Sect."
"If you become the Protector, obtaining Hehuan Sect's beauty pill will be as easy as reaching out your hand..."
Li Muyang rolled his eyes, "You're willing to sell out your own brother for a beauty pill."
Continuing, Li Muyang shook his head, "Don't dream; we're just going there to join in the excitement, I'm highly unlikely to be chosen."
The maid's message was shocking.
Elder Ge Hongshan was a powerful cultivator of the Purple Mansion and bore the identity of an elder of the Demon Sect, notorious and formidable on the Demon Path.
With great strength and the backing of the Demon Sect, who would dare to harm him? And who could harm him?
Yet, the severity of his injuries was now near fatal... this news was as absurd as a joke.
Li Muyang and his sister exchanged glances, both shocked by the news.
They immediately left the courtyard and went outside, only to see the disciples of the Enforcement Hall crowded at the edge of the Suspended Island.
Li Muyang and Yuechan also walked to the edge of the Suspended Island and, following the gaze of the crowd, saw a glowing, semi-transparent cocoon hovering in the sky not far away.
Inside the cocoon, the figure of Elder Ge Hongshan from the Artifact Refining Hall lay motionless.
However, at this moment, Ge Hongshan was covered in wounds, his appearance was haggard, and he seemed to be on the verge of death.
An alarming and unsettling demonic aura lingered around him.
The cocoon was fiercely protecting him; many disciples from the Artifact Refining Hall flew up trying to rescue their elder, but were repelled as soon as they approached the cocoon.
Brother Cheng, who stood at the forefront of the crowd, his expression somber and his gaze as cold as ever, played the hero as usual.
Seeing Li Muyang and his sister approach, Brother Cheng spoke, "That is Elder Ge's protective Magic Artifact, the high-grade Spiritual Artifact, Mysterious Void Mirror. It can transform into a mirror to reflect a person's soul when attacking and into a cocoon to protect the bearer when defending."
"It's unexpected that with Elder Ge's cultivation, he would suffer such severe injuries... Who could be such a madman?"
Brother Cheng's expression remained stern.
The entire Refinement Demon Sect was alerted, and the edges of every Suspended Island were filled with people.
Everyone was stunned as they watched the cocoon in the sky, murmuring amongst themselves.
Soon, finally, figures at the elder level appeared.
Several elders appeared high in the sky, jointly stabilized the light cocoon, retrieved the unconscious Ge Hongshan, and urgently sent him for medical attention.
With that, the crowd of onlookers gradually dispersed.
Everyone discussed who might have injured Elder Ge.
But from within the crowd, Li Muyang stared in the direction Ge Hongshan was carried away, a flash of shock crossing his eyes.
When Ge Hongshan was rescued from the cocoon, the evil aura on his body suddenly erupted, spreading outwards.
While others might not recognize this evil aura, Li Muyang felt an inexplicable familiarity and intimacy.
This was clearly the aura of an Ancient Evil God!
