Chapter 2099 A Secret Maneuver, Qingcaojian in Crisis

boom!

A terrifying explosion suddenly came from below March City.

Under the unstoppable attack of the Changsheng Immortal Sect's experts, the army that came to attack March City was instantly routed.

Upon seeing this, Chen Xuan himself laughed.

"Are these people here to be funny? They really don't have any fighting ability at all."

Although Chen Xuan said this, he knew perfectly well what was going on in his heart.

He always felt that something was strange about the whole thing.

"Senior Sister Nangong, please contact your fellow disciples guarding other small cities nearby as soon as possible. See if their cities have also been attacked in a similar way," Chen Xuan said.

"This... Junior Brother means that this attack was just a smokescreen?"

“That’s right. The experts from the Heavenly Sword Immortal Sect and the Longevity Immortal Sect are not to be trifled with. The fact that they’ve sent these people here to die suggests they have other motives.”

"I have the same doubts. Don't worry, I will inquire for you!"

Nangong Wanrong agreed and quickly took out a jade talisman to contact her fellow disciples nearby.

Before long, Nangong Wanrong received many replies from her fellow disciples.

After she finished reading the reply, her face turned extremely gloomy.

"Junior Brother Chen, just as we suspected. Recently, many small cities guarded by our fellow disciples have been attacked by the Heavenly Sword Immortal Sect and the Heavenly Emperor Immortal Sect!"

"This...it seems the Heavenly Sword Immortal Sect is plotting something much bigger. I just don't know what exactly they're planning to do?"

Chen Xuan frowned slightly.

Soon, his divine sense once again enveloped the entire battlefield.

Before Nangong Wanrong could react, Chen Xuan took a step and disappeared from the spot.

When he reappeared, he was already beside a Heavenly Immortal in the early stage of the Heavenly Sword Immortal Sect.

"Fellow!"

Chen Xuan's faint voice sounded.

This early-stage Celestial Immortal expert from the Heavenly Sword Immortal Sect was originally hiding in the crowd, disguised.

If Chen Xuan hadn't secretly activated the Heavenly Illusion Demon Eye, even he wouldn't have been able to detect the other party's true cultivation level.

"you are?"

The pupils of the Heavenly Sword Immortal Sect expert suddenly contracted.

A hint of apprehension then appeared on his face.

"Hehe, who I am is not important. What is important is that I have some questions to ask you, fellow Daoist. If you can tell me the truth, I can leave you with a complete corpse!" Chen Xuan said with a smile.

"Haha, fellow Daoist, you are truly arrogant. You yourself are only at the early stage of Celestial Immortal. What ability do you have to speak such words to me?"

The early-stage Celestial Immortal expert sneered repeatedly.

Seeing the other party's arrogance, Chen Xuan didn't bother to pay any attention to him.

With a thought, the divine power within the Niwan Palace suddenly erupted.

Wow!

The powerful divine sense surged forth, almost tangible, and entered the Niwan Palace of this early-stage Celestial Immortal.

The intense stinging pain instantly contorted the other person's expression.

However, before he could recover from the pain, Chen Xuan had already appeared a foot or so in front of him.

With a swift grab in mid-air, he snapped his neck.

Almost simultaneously, the Dragon-Seeking Sword let out a soft hum, transforming into countless sword shadows that completely sealed the opponent's nascent soul within his dantian.

"Fellow Daoist, spare my life! I will tell you everything you want to know, I only beg you to spare my life!"

Upon seeing this, the early-stage Celestial Immortal expert begged for mercy repeatedly.

Chen Xuan gave a cold laugh, a hint of coldness appearing in his eyes.

"Hehe, fellow Daoist, you probably haven't figured out the situation yet, have you? Since I have a way to capture you alive, I naturally have a way to know what I want to know."

The early-stage Celestial Immortal reacted quickly, and soon he said in a panic, "Fellow Daoist, you are only at the early stage of Celestial Immortal. Do you think you can search my soul?"

"Haha, what do you think?"

Chen Xuan sneered.

The divine sense has already forcibly invaded the opponent's Niwan Palace.

Wow!

In the blink of an eye, the nascent soul of the early-stage Celestial Immortal expert fell into a deep coma.

At this moment, Chen Xuan completely absorbed the memories in the other party's mind.

After reviewing the other person's memories, Chen Xuan frowned.

"Unexpectedly, the Heavenly Sword Immortal Sect and the Heavenly Emperor Immortal Sect have secretly gathered a large number of Heavenly Immortal realm experts during this period."

"In that case, the Heavenly Sword Immortal Sect and the Heavenly Emperor Immortal Sect should plan an even larger-scale battle!"

"However, the experts from the Heavenly Sword Immortal Sect and the Heavenly Emperor Immortal Sect who were dispatched here are nowhere to be found. Could it be..."

As Chen Xuan thought about this, a bold guess instantly surfaced from the depths of his mind.

"Could it be that the Heavenly Sword Immortal Sect and the Heavenly Emperor Immortal Sect's goal is to attack Green Grass Valley?"

Green Grass Stream!

This is the most important place right now.

For both the Longevity Immortal Sect and the Heavenly Sword Immortal Sect and the Heavenly Emperor Immortal Sect, a defeat would undoubtedly lead to a crushing defeat in the subsequent battles.

Therefore, neither side wanted to be defeated in the Green Grass Ravine.

However, the current situation seems to be very unfavorable for the Longevity Immortal Sect.

"No, I must report this to my Martial Aunt Qinghua as soon as possible and have her make preparations immediately!" Chen Xuan said.

The next instant, he swayed and returned to March City.

He quickly took out a communication jade talisman and contacted Wang Qinghua directly.

Before long, Wang Qinghua's image appeared rapidly on the jade talisman in Chen Xuan's hand.

"You brat, why aren't you staying in March City? What brings you here to see me now?"

"Uncle Qinghua, where are you now?"

"You actually dare to inquire about my whereabouts?"

"This... Uncle-Master, please don't misunderstand. What I mean is that the current situation is very unfavorable for our Longevity Immortal Sect. Please let me explain in detail."

Chen Xuan looked anxious.

But he quickly composed himself, organized his thoughts, and told Wang Qinghua everything he had speculated about.

After Wang Qinghua finished listening, her expression indeed turned extremely ugly.

"What you've said is exactly the same as the latest intelligence I received!"

"It seems that the Heavenly Sword Immortal Sect and the Heavenly Emperor Immortal Sect are preparing for a major battle in the Green Grass Ravine!"

"In that case, our Longevity Immortal Sect must make some preparations as soon as possible!"

"You will immediately leave half of your forces behind to continue guarding March City."

"You must take the rest of the men to Qingcaojian as soon as possible!"

Wang Qinghua's expression turned very serious.

Upon hearing this, Chen Xuan naturally dared not be negligent.

He is currently only at the early stage of the Celestial Immortal realm.

But his fate was already completely intertwined with that of the Immortal Sect of Longevity.

Right now, all he can do is follow Wang Qinghua's plan.

Soon after the battle outside March City ended, Chen Xuan gathered everyone to clean up the battlefield.

He then detached half of his troops and personally led them straight to Qingcaojian.

Unbeknownst to them, other cities in Qingcaojian also sent people to aid Qingcaojian.

Of course, all of these things were done in secret.

No one dared to make a big fuss, for fear that the Heavenly Sword Immortal Sect and the Heavenly Emperor Immortal Sect would discover their scheme.

……

In Qingcaojian, the residence of the Changsheng Immortal Sect, in a huge secret chamber.

Chen Xuan and other Celestial Immortal realm experts who had just arrived at Qingcaojian all gathered here.

During this time, Chen Xuan fought side by side with his fellow disciples, and they all became quite familiar with each other.

However, looking at the Heavenly Immortal realm experts who appeared in this secret room, all of them looked exhausted, Chen Xuan's expression became unusually solemn.

"It seems the others haven't had enough rest lately. They're even a bit listless!"

"If something serious happens in Qingcaojian, our Changsheng Immortal Sect will probably suffer a great loss."

At that moment, the previously noisy secret room suddenly became quiet.

Soon, two terrifying pressures from the early stages of Golden Immortal cultivation suddenly appeared on the scene.

All eyes turned to these two Golden Immortal level experts.

The visitors were Wang Qinghua and Cui Yuntian.

"Greetings, Second Uncle Master!"

Everyone's voice rang out in unison.

Wang Qinghua and Cui Yuntian's gazes swept over everyone before Cui Yuntian said, "There's no need for this, everyone. You should all be well aware of the reason why you were transferred to Qingcaojian for this advancement."

"Recently, the Heavenly Sword Immortal Sect and the Heavenly Emperor Immortal Sect have played a trick of feigning one thing while secretly doing another."

"These two sects have recently gathered many talented experts and are secretly hiding in the Green Grass Stream, preparing to launch a surprise attack on our Longevity Immortal Sect's base at any time!"

"That's why we sent you here to provide support!"

"But we can't remain so passive right now!"

“We will select some exceptionally capable individuals from among you to work in small groups and secretly monitor the actions of the Heavenly Sword Immortal Sect and the Heavenly Emperor Immortal Sect.”

"Next, I will announce the list directly!"

After giving a brief introduction, Cui Yuntian began reading out names.

Those whose names were called all looked solemn.

Fortunately, Chen Xuan, Nangong Wanrong, and Fei Yun were all very lucky and were not named by Cui Yuntian.

"Alright, those whose names I've called, stay here. Those whose names haven't been called, hurry back and rest. Be prepared to act at any moment!" Fei Yuntian said.

"Yes!"

Chen Xuan and the others agreed.

He immediately took his leave.

The cultivation chambers of Chen Xuan, Nangong Wanrong, and Fei Yun were right next to each other.

When the three of them returned together, they all looked unwell.

Cui Yun, in particular, looked extremely worried.

"Senior Brother Cui, don't overthink it. Things haven't reached the point you're thinking of yet," Chen Xuan comforted him.

"Alas, Junior Brother Chen, you are unaware of the true nature of this matter. For ordinary early-stage Celestial Immortals like us, the upcoming battle is nothing short of a catastrophe. I myself cannot guarantee whether I will survive!" Fei Yun said with a wry smile.

Upon hearing this, Nangong Wanrong smiled bitterly: "Yes, I have also considered this. However, I am quite open-minded. As a Celestial Immortal Elder of the Longevity Immortal Sect, since I enjoy the generous treatment of the Longevity Immortal Sect, I should naturally risk my life for the Longevity Immortal Sect!"

"If I were unlucky enough to perish that day, I would have no regrets!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Xuan was momentarily speechless.

Fei Yun and Nangong Wanrong comforted Chen Xuan before returning to their respective secret chambers.

Wow!

With a casual wave of his hand, Chen Xuan activated the protective array in the secret chamber instantly.

For safety's sake, Chen Xuan set up a protective array he carried with him in the secret room before entering the Immortal Beast Tower.
