Chapter 532: More Enemies Show Up

Taixu Wuxian’s jaw dropped as he looked at the surroundings, which were made from materials that didn’t exist in the Canglan Realm. "This... What kind of place is this? I’ve never seen anything like this before."

"Hahaha," Situ Lingxi laughed. "We are inside my husband’s flying artifact, cousin."

Huo Mianmian nodded slightly. "After Tang Xiao saved me from the Shangguan Clan, he brought me to this place, and I always trained here before he left me at the Taixu Palace."

"Let’s go." Taixu Wuxian was even more shocked when a flying car stopped in front of them, and Tang Yin led the others onto it. "Brother Wuxian, you should board it now, and I will take you to another place."

"Oh... Oh..." The flying artifact immediately moved on its own as soon as Taixu Wuxian boarded it. "Does this flying artifact use spirit crystal to move?"

"No." Tang Yin explained a few things to Taixu Wuxian, which shocked him even more. "My husband’s late master found this ark in a realm, and he passed it on to him before he died."

Taixu Wuxian understood and did not understand. He was amazed by the interior of the Primordial Divine Ark—from the materials used in its construction to the equipment within it.

Before long, they arrived at the lounge area, and Tang Yin introduced Taixu Wuxian to several other women, such as Meng Xin, Yi An, Ouyang Qing, and several others.

After that, Tang Yin asked Huo Mianmian to take Taixu Wuxian to look around the areas inside the Primordial Divine Ark.

Throughout the journey, Taixu Wuxian was speechless, observing everything inside the ark that was completely different from the Canglan Realm.

Huo Mianmian kept giggling as she looked at Taixu Wuxian’s expression, but she herself also acted like him when Tang Xiao brought her into the ark the first time.

Huo Mianmian didn’t take Taixu Wuxian to the treasury vault, and their final stop was the hot spring area.

"Huh? Why did we stop at this place, Mianmian?"

Huo Mianmian blushed slightly. "Brother Wuxian, you are really slow!"

"Hmm?" Taixu Wuxian was puzzled, but he then noticed the blush on her cheeks.

Before Taixu Wuxian could ask, Huo Mianmian had already pulled him to the side of the hot spring pool, and she immediately took off her dress. However, she was not completely naked, and two thin cloths covered her private parts.

Taixu Wuxian took a deep breath, and he swallowed hard. His face turned bright red, and his breathing became ragged. Even though he couldn’t see Huo Mianmian’s private parts, her beautiful curves aroused his lust.

"Take off your clothes and soak with me, Brother Wuxian."

"Oh, okay." Taixu Wuxian immediately took off his clothes, but he left his long underwear behind.

The two went straight into the hot spring pool and leaned against the side wall, but the atmosphere between them felt awkward, and no one spoke.

In the space rift.

"Xuan’er." Zhu Xuan’er turned to her fiancé, Xuanyuan Wenxuan. "I know you dislike Tang Xiao, but you must also realize that he behaves the way he does toward you because of your own attitude."

"But—"

"Listen to me first." Xuanyuan Wenxuan interrupted her. "You come from the prominent Zhu Clan, but Tang Xiao is different from you, and he doesn’t have a background like yours. You should know by now that he doesn’t trust others easily, and he accepted us into his group not because of us, but because of Xuanyuan Yueyao."

"I know." Zhu Xuan’er hugged her legs and rested her head on her knees. "It’s just that I didn’t expect that one of his wives would be a darkness cultivator, and you know my clan’s history with the demons of the south."

Xuanyuan Wenxuan embraced her. "Honestly, I agree with Tang Xiao; not all darkness cultivators are evil. We’re both quite old, and we have a lot of experience as cultivators. Compared to those demons or darkness cultivators, many other cultivators are far more evil than them, including our past enemies."

Zhu Xuan’er’s face turned ugly as soon as Xuanyuan Wenxuan mentioned their past enemies. She hurriedly suppressed her anger and took a few breaths.

Xuanyuan Wenxuan spoke to her again. "Your two elders won’t listen to me, so you should order them not to say anything about Tang Yin to your family. If they tell your family, I’m afraid it will bring big trouble, and you guys will end up becoming Tang Xiao’s enemies."

"I’ll talk to them later."

"Okay."

"Where exactly did Tang Xiao send them?"

Jiang Haoming shook his head at Xiao Qingning. "I don’t know about that, but I know that his element is not the space element. Some time ago, I accidentally heard my aunt talking to my father about him, and they discussed his weird element."

"Not a space element?"

"Yes," Jian Haoming nodded. "My aunt and Emperor Xuanyuan actually wanted to meet with him to discuss his element, but Old Huangfu asked them not to, so they dropped their plan."

"I see." Xiao Qingning gazed toward Tang Xiao, who was standing in a distant tree alongside Xuanyuan Yueyao and the others. "I still don’t understand how he can be so strong, and how he can kill a beast at the Peak Emperor level with his current cultivation. Besides, I feel that his fire element is different from the ordinary one, and it’s like being strengthened by something."

"Forget it." In fact, Jiang Fenghua ordered Jiang Haoming to investigate Tang Xiao, but he was too secretive and kept his distance from others. "We don’t know what will happen after this, so we must prepare ourselves to face the enemies that will come soon."

Xiao Qingning’s expression turned gloomy. "Do you think we can get out of this place safely, Haoming? If those cultivators are far stronger than us, we certainly won’t be able to stand against them, and we might die in their hands."

"I don’t know." Jian Haoming himself had no confidence to face the enemies. "We have to wait for them to arrive first, and we will develop a strategy to survive until the time runs out. If the situation is too dangerous, we will escape to the first area and wait to be sent out of this place."

Xiao Qingning sighed. "I don’t want to die in this place, so I hope the enemies aren’t too strong."

"Don’t worry, I won’t let you die."

"When will the seal open, Tang Xiao?"

"I don’t know, Elder Mengli." Tang Xiao pointed ahead. "I calculate that the seal will open at exactly midnight, but I might be wrong."

Luo Feng looked at him. "So, you don’t know their strength yet?"

"As soon as the seal opens, I will be able to gauge their strength, and we will move according to my next instructions." Tang Xiao paused and checked the map. "If they are indeed much stronger than us, we should retreat to the first area as quickly as possible. Oh, by the way, I found three demon generals who were seriously injured due to attacks by those beasts."

"Who are those three?" Taixu Yue asked.

"Mo Yan, Mo Lei, and Mo Hei."

They were surprised to hear those three names, and then Situ Yang spoke. "Mo Yan is a fire demon, Mo Lei is a thunder demon, and Mo Hei is a darkness demon."

"They were overconfident in their abilities, and they encountered Peak Saint Level Beasts." They gasped in shock after Tang Xiao said that, as the strongest cultivator in the Canglan Realm was Xuanyuan Lingtian, and his cultivation was only at the Middle Saint Level. "Hahaha! Are you shocked after learning about the strength of those beasts? In fact, there are many beasts stronger than them in the central area, and their cultivation should have surpassed the Saint Level."

"What? Surpass the Saint Level?"

"Yeah." Tang Xiao nodded. "However, you guys don’t need to ask about their actual level because I don’t know about it."

"Then, how could you guess that their strength has already surpassed the Saint Level?"

Tang Xiao looked at Tian Xiaoqian. "Secret!"

"Ugh! You’re such a cheapskate!" Tian Xiaoqian shouted irritably.

Xuanyuan Yueyao spoke up immediately. "If it is true that the strength of the beasts in the central area has surpassed the Saint Level, then I suspect that those emerging from the cave will possess a similar level of strength."

"I suppose so," Tang Xiao nodded in agreement. "For now, we can only wait until the seal opens, and then I will let you all know about their strength. By the way, is the first area in the Misty Ridge safe?"

"Yes." Xuanyuan Yueyao nodded. "Actually, this place is almost similar to the Misty Ridge, and the first area is the safest place. If we fight in that area, we will suffer unexpected punishment."

"Unexpected punishment?" Tang Xiao raised an eyebrow.

Xuanyuan Yueyao pointed at the sky. "The punishment always descends from above, and its power is terrifying."

[That is a natural punishment, Master.] Xiao Ai immediately explained a few things to Tang Xiao.

’Terrifying, isn’t it?’ Tang Xiao drew in a deep breath. "I don’t know if they can reach the first area before the enemies appear; otherwise, the casualties will be numerous, and our realm will lose many powerful cultivators."

Two other demons arrived at the cave, leading a large number of their subordinates.

"How long before the seal breaks?"

"I can’t wait to hunt down the people outside."

The female demon who arrived first warned her two companions. "Hey! You mustn’t kill cultivators at the Tyrant and Saint levels! Our emperor needs them, and he will punish you both if you kill them! The seal will open soon!"

"Relax! We won’t kill them, but we will kill the others!"

"Hahaha! I hope there are many beautiful female cultivators out there, and I will capture them!"

"Idiot!" The female demon cursed.
