Chapter 688: Chapter 390 Hehuan Past Events_2

“…”

Upon hearing Helian Cheng’s words, the nearby sisters of the Hehuan Sect all showed strange expressions.

In the past, old acquaintances came to Tian Xiang Lou for pleasure…

It sounded nice, but those who handled matters sixteen years ago were at least in their thirties or forties, and now they must be around fifty years old. Although the saying goes ‘old but vigorous’, they found it rather strange, especially since it coincidentally involved the lost enemy’s daughter, and even led to the recognition of her identity. It is undeniable that among the many odd tales they had heard over the years at Tian Xiang Lou, this one was certainly remarkable.

After hearing Helian Cheng’s words, Hua Nongyue showed a thoughtful expression and then turned her head to exchange a glance with an older steward behind the crowd. Seeing the slight nod from the old steward, she knew that Helian Cheng’s words were mostly true.

However,

After clarifying this point, Hua Nongyue instead smiled slightly and said, “Lord Helian has spoken, and we are all aware. Regardless of whether such ethereal matters are true, hasn’t Lord Helian heard that once you enter the Buddhist gate, it’s as deep as the sea, and henceforth the mundane world has no acquaintance… Here at Tian Xiang Lou, once you enter, you leave behind past affairs, and henceforth only Hehuan is our home. Whatever happened in the past has nothing to do with Hehuan.”

The Hehuan Sect seldom admits disciples, but all those who do enter the sect were saved and brought back when they were children. Thus, the entirety of Hehuan is united, whatever may be the past or previous affairs, it is impossible to hand over any disciple of the sect. This is a boundary the Hehuan Sect cannot cross and also represents the will in the cultivation of all disciples of Hehuan.

However,

These words, upon reaching Helian Cheng’s ears, turned his expression rapidly somber.

What depth of Buddhism… In his view, those words were nothing short of mockery. The Hehuan Sect made its living selling flesh; they were merely a group of whores, lacking any true sentiment. He had explained the happenings of the past, and such a response was virtually an outright disregard for his face.

Even some knife-wielding ruffians behind him struggled to restrain their laughter upon hearing Hua Nongyue’s words, yet dared not let out a sound. They had to forcibly hold it in, creating an eerie atmosphere at that moment.

“This official did not wish to resort to violence today, but since you all are so ungrateful, do not blame this official for being unsympathetic!”

Helian Cheng finally spoke in a cold voice.

Taking a step forward, he waved his hand broadly. Instantaneously, a chilling aura pervaded all around, with the small courtyard, from where he stood as the center, visibly freezing outwards in all directions, as if a summer’s moment had turned into harsh winter!

The nearby Hehuan Sect disciples, even those knife-wielding ruffians, upon seeing Helian Cheng make a move, all changed their expressions and almost instinctively scattered in all directions, not daring to remain within the range of Helian Cheng’s Cold Heaven True Qi.

In just a moment,

Only Hua Nongyue and Hua Nongying were left in the courtyard, confronting Helian Cheng from afar.

“Lord Helian’s Cold Heaven True Qi commands respect in all directions, and we hold it in high esteem, but once entered into Hehuan, we are all sisters. Regardless of the past, how could we possibly sever our own flesh and blood?”

Hua Nongyue spoke in a calm tone, “If Lord Helian wishes to suppress others with power, then we sisters can only experience it firsthand.”

“Hmph, further talk is pointless!”

With a cold snort, Helian Cheng did not waste further words and raised his hand to deliver a palm strike.

As the palm struck, a haze of Cold Heaven Palm Imprints immediately materialized in the void, causing the nearby air to freeze into patches of cold mist, pressing down toward Hua Nongyue and Hua Nongying.

No matter what Hua Nongyue said, at this moment, facing Helian Cheng’s strike, both she and Hua Nongying showed extremely grave expressions, for, after all, the person they were dealing with was a genuine Grandmaster!

Perhaps among grandmasters, he might not be considered very strong, compared to Feng Hongsheng, Shi Zhenyong who were still somewhat superior, and in terms of real strength, not yet reaching the top three in the Cold North Wind Cloud List or the standard of Xia Yu’r. Yet, ultimately, he was someone who had entered the Marrow Cleansing stage.

The sisters had come to the Outer Sea to gather intelligence and experience cultivation. Although their cultivation had also progressed individually, even Hua Nongyue was still slightly away from making it onto the Wind Cloud List, and her sister was even slightly less proficient than her.

“Yin Yang Rotation.”

Hua Nongyue and Hua Nongying did not dare to take Helian Cheng’s attack lightly, and almost immediately brought out their ultimate skills. Each raised one hand, their fingers interlocked, and both bodies simultaneously emitted the Artistic Conceptions of Taiyin and Taiyang, merging and transforming into two strands of light, one black and one white.

The True Qi and Artistic Conception between them fused into one at that moment, transforming from two separate individuals into one and then the other two unclasped hands struck forward with a palm, instantly merging black and white into the Yin Yang Rotation to meet the attack.

Hum!!

The Yin Yang Grinding Disc collided with the incoming Cold Heaven True Qi in the void, not with a booming sound, but with an eerie hum, and then Helian Cheng’s Cold Heaven True Qi began to silently dissolve under the entanglement of the Yin Yang Grinding Disc.

This wasn’t being erased by the Power of Yin Yang, but seemed to be retreating in the rotation, gradually reverting from Cold Heaven True Qi back to the plain Power of Heaven and Earth, and then scattering back between heaven and earth.

“Indeed somewhat capable, not unworthy of your reputation.”

Seeing this, Helian Cheng’s eyes slightly flickered, his tone carrying a hint of coldness.

Originally, neither Hua Nongyue nor Hua Nongying alone had the energy close to that of a real Grandmaster, but when linked with a certain special Cultivation Technique, they seemed to become one person; this was entirely different from the connected energy the formations method usually provided, almost a perfect blend, making their combined Artistic Conception and Yuan Gang nearly reach the level of a Grandmaster!

Currently, Hua Nongyue and Hua Nongying, alone, could not aim high enough to be on the Wind Cloud List, but when they combined forces and used their Secret Technique, their strength was enough to rival the top ten on the Wind Cloud List, not much less than Helian Cheng.

“We mean no offense, and we hope Lord Helian will show magnanimity.”

Hua Nongyue and Hua Nongying spoke softly.

At this moment, their state was quite bizarre, not only speaking in unison synchronously, almost with the same voice overlapped, but even their facial expressions and body movements seemed completely identical.

“You do possess some skills, but relying merely on these sidestep tactics, you are far from making me retreat!”

Helian Cheng spoke coldly, his body suddenly moved, transforming into a series of afterimages, quickly covering the wide courtyard. Each step left behind an afterimage, resembling mere frosty reflections, but mysteriously also carrying Solidifying Refinement of Qi and life.

He took seven steps, revealing seven afterimages, surrounding Hua Nongyue and Hua Nongying in the center, then all seven afterimages moved together, simultaneously swinging a palm at the two. In an instant, seven palm imprints erupted, overwhelming from all directions, and when converging in the air, they resembled the seven petals of an ice lotus.

Seven Steps Shadow!

Ice Lotus Palm Print!

These were the two renowned skills that made Helian Cheng feared far and wide.

As a distinguished Grandmaster, who had endured countless battles, he almost immediately spotted a flaw in the technique used by Hua Nongyue and Hua Nongying—it was their limitation in movement techniques!

Their energies and Inner Breaths were connected, much like that of a Grandmaster, but their physical bodies must remain connected, which restricted their movements, not allowing as much flexibility and variation as a real Grandmaster. Therefore, facing his techniques, they found it difficult to dodge, only able to forcibly counter!

Just as Helian Cheng had expected.

When faced with Helian Cheng’s movement techniques and palm print techniques, Hua Nongyue and Hua Nongying indeed could not sufficiently dodge; their expressions were synchronized, both frowning slightly, as if their minds communicated without needing words, and each struck simultaneously with a palm.

One hand moved from left to right, the other from right to left, evolving into the Yin Yang Rotation, instantly creating a halo of black and white light, enveloping their figures and colliding with the Ice Lotus Palm Prints coming from all sides, causing a series of hums.

From above.

One could see the seven ice lotus petals and a field of black and white Yin Yang Chart continuously colliding and eroding each other, intensely fierce.
