Chapter 199: The School Of White Lotus Calls For Help, Chu Kuangren’s Warning, The Chaos In Full Moon Kingdom

While Chu Kuangren was cultivating, the communication compass suddenly began to vibrate.

It was a message from Elder Ruyan.

“Eh, the School of White Lotus is calling for help?”

Chu Kuangren was rather surprised.

He got up and out of the Towering Heaven Palace to head to the Longevity Hall.

Inside the hall was the White Lotus Maiden Sage, who was pacing back and forth. Her white dress was elegant as a white lotus, but the usual glee on her expressions had gone from her face. Instead, extreme distress and worry were revealed through her locked eyebrows.

When she saw Chu Kuangren approaching, the White Lotus Maiden Sage immediately walked up to him. “Greetings, Supreme Elder.”

“No need for courtesy. Tell me, what has happened?”

“Supreme Elder, when I was on my way back to the School of White Lotus, I received an abrupt message from the School, telling me to come here and request for you to come back with us to the School of White Lotus, and help us deal with the underworld demonic beasts,” the White Lotus Maiden Sage said.

“Underworld demonic beasts, weren’t they already vanquished by the White Lotus Sage Ruler?”

Chu Kuangren asked in surprise.

In the School of White Lotus’s ancient lore, there was once an underworld demonic beast that wreaked havoc near the southern countries, but they were later on vanquished by the School of White Lotus.

That was also the reason the White Lotus Sage Ruler established the School of White Lotus.

“That’s right, but the seal left behind by the Sage Ruler has been recently damaged, and that demonic beast seized this opportunity to charge at the seal. Although it has been subdued by the Sage in our School, the demonic qi has spread to the outer world, causing a lot of chaos. The White Lotus Leader has sent me here to look for you, wishing that your White Lotus Light of Purification could help to purge the demonic qi.”

“I see.”

Chu Kuangren nodded slightly. “I don’t see this as too hard a task.”

Since the School of White Lotus had now allied themselves with the Black Heaven Sect, it would make complete sense for the Sect to give them a hand, and Chu Kuangren would not reject their call for help.

After he explained things to Elder Ruyan and the others, he was already prepared to head towards the School of White Lotus.

Just then, he saw two people walking into the Longevity Hall from outside.

“Eh, it’s him?”

Chu Kuangren was slightly shocked because the person who walked in was whom he had knocked unconscious right outside the Black Heaven Sect’s mountain, Murong Feng.

“I see you’re awake.” Chu Kuangren flashed him a faint smile, acting as if it was not him who had knocked the person out.

The corner of Murong Feng’s lips twitched, and a glimpse of fear swept through his gaze as he stared at Chu Kuangren.

It seemed that he was quite scared of Chu Kuangren now.

Just one sword strike and he was able to knock him out. With that combat strength, it was quite unbelievable that it was a Battle Monarch cultivator.

“I have Brother Chu to thank for your mercy on me. Otherwise, I don’t think I’ll be standing here breathing anymore.” Murong Feng said with a fist salute. His tone was more courteous now as opposed to when he came to challenge two days ago.

Elder Ruyan, White Lotus Maiden Sage, and a few others stood beside them and watched, and they could not help but sigh. If he remained unsatisfied then he really deserved another round of battering.

“You’ve brought Murong Xuan along, is there anything you’re looking for?”

Chu Kuangren asked.

“I intend to bring him back to the Murong clan,” Murong Feng said.

“Oh.”

Chu Kuangren did not say anything else. He simply glanced toward Murong Xuan as if to get a hint from him on whether he had been forced to comply or not.

“Sect Leader, there’s something out there in the Murong clan that I need to take care of, so I’m afraid I would have to excuse myself from the Black Heaven Sect for a while.”

There was an apologetic look on Murong Xuan’s face when he said that.

To any outsider, his action may be seen as a betrayal toward the Black Heaven Sect since he had now chosen to return to the Murong clan.

However, Chu Kuangren merely looked him in the eye and then gave him a pat on his shoulder, smiling. “Go on, but you have to remember that the Black Heaven Sect will always have your back.”

“Yes, Sect Leader. I’ll come back here as soon as I’ve settled the matter.” Murong Xuan nodded resolutely.

“Of course, you would. Black Heaven Sect is your home. Surely you’ll have to come back here.”

Chu Kuangren reprimanded him jokingly.

“That is very true, Sect Leader.”

After that, Murong Feng left the place with Murong Xuan at his side.

“Let’s get this straight. Murong Xuan is a part of us, the Black Heaven Sect. If he sustains any sort of humility at the Murong clan, I will not let you guys off the hook!”

On his way out, Chu Kuangren’s cold voice rang out again in Murong Feng’s ears. It was so unsettling that it made him shudder.

“What’s up with you?”

Murong Xuan caught Murong Feng’s weird look.

Chu Kuangren had told him that using spiritual thought. So besides Murong Feng, nobody else had heard it.

“No, it’s nothing.”

Murong Feng shook his head, his expression was visibly stark.

He had a bad feeling about this.

Was it the right decision to come here and get Murong Xuan back?

He hoped that this time out, everything would be smooth-sailing… Otherwise, god knows what sort of thing Chu Kuangren would do to him!

“Alright, let’s head out as well.”

Chu Kuangren said to the White Lotus Maiden Sage.

Aside from him, Lan Yu had tagged along as well. It was a matter of purging demonic qi, so maybe her Holy Radiant Physique would be of some help too.

The trio dashed to the School of White Lotus by Fairy boat, and of course, not by foot.

Chu Kuangren initially wanted to ride the Godly Phoenix to the place, but he remembered that there were three of them. Moreover, divine beasts had their pride, so besides himself, it would not have allowed anyone else to ride on it. Hence, he put that thought behind his head.

Approximately two days later.

The few of them arrived at the Full Moon Kingdom, one of the northern countries of the Azure Dragon Domain.

Looking down from high up in the sky, Chu Kuangren noticed that the capital of the Full Moon Kingdom was enveloped in a shroud of darkness with wicked energy seeping out from it.

“This is demonic qi!” Chu Kuangren’s eyebrows furrowed slightly.

Demonic qi could also be considered as a kind of spiritual qi.

However, since it originated from the Underworld Demonic Realm and was not compatible with the living beings on the Firmament Star, demonic qi was harmful to most of the living beings here.

“Master, look.”

At this moment, Lan Yu was pointing at the very center of the demonic qi in the Full Moon Kingdom.

A humongous white lotus weaved by infinite Dao patterns was seen suspending in mid-air, emanating gushes of pure sacred energy.

Within the white lotus was a lady, whose expressions looked extremely tranquil. Countless Daoist Rhymes were circulating around her, and she looked as though she had become one with that white lotus.

Meanwhile, right beneath that white lotus was a three-headed, dog-like creature whose whole body was covered in black fur. It was a menacing demonic beast.

“That’s the underworld demonic beast?”

A strange look etched out on Chu Kuangren’s face.

It was a demonic beast that came from the underworld — a three-headed hound.

Underworld three-headed hound?!

“Yes, that’s the underworld demonic beast. To this day, it has broken half of the seal while our School of White Lotus’s Sage is oppressing it.”

White Lotus Maiden Sage said solemnly.

The few of them got down from the Fairy boat, stepping onto the Full Moon Kingdom’s street. Once they got back on land, they were immediately able to feel that wicked demonic qi.

The demonic qi had encased a good half of the Full Moon Kingdom’s capital, and it kept on spreading outwards. In the meantime, everyone at the School of White Lotus was trying hard to expel the demonic qi. Rays of white light were emitted out from their palms as they tried to negate the demonic qi.

Nevertheless, as compared to the magnificence of this demonic qi, what they were doing was only like a drop in the bucket. The best they could achieve was to slow the spread of the demonic qi.

If that went on, the demonic qi would eventually cover the entire capital. It would be so bad that the entire Full Moon Kingdom or even their neighboring countries would not be spared from this.

On the streets, numerous common folks were kneeling on the ground, praying.

“Oh God, please protect us.”

“Dear old School of White Lotus, I hope that we’d be able to pull through this disaster.”

Besides that, some of the people who were infected by the demonic qi had even lost their minds as they destroyed things around them like lunatics.

The sounds of prayers, cries, and objects smashing…

The whole Full Moon Kingdom was plunged into a state of chaos.

It did not look anything like its old tranquil self the last time Chu Kuangren visited.

Swish.

A figure emerged from thin air.

It was Chu Kuangren’s Protector, Honorable Qing Lan.

Seeing everything which unfolded before her, a sense of shock and grievance flashed across Honorable Qing Lan’s eyes. “How did it become like this?”

“Sigh, things have gotten bad too quickly.”

A lady in white robes walked up to them. It was the White Lotus Leader.
