Invincible Dad-Chapter 671: Would You Like to Join the Moon Clan_1
Where was the danger coming from?
Unlike Qian Xiao and Yiyi, whose Divine Sense was keen, the teachers and students were completely at a loss, sensing nothing at all. They even doubted whether Qian Xiao was just toying with them.
"Qian..."
Just as Miao Momo was about to say something, Qian Xiao rebuked her, "Don’t talk."
Miao Momo was speechless. I haven’t even said anything yet!
She had a mind to teach this brat a lesson, but Teacher Miao noticed a sudden change in Qian Xiao. He was no longer his usual carefree self. Instead, he exuded an indescribable feeling, one that reminded her of the reliability and security she felt when with her father.
Pfft. What nonsense am I thinking? Qian Xiao is just a chaotic little devil; where would any sense of security come from? To put it another way, if it weren’t for Xu Yiyi’s appearance, Qian Xiao would have been the perfect scumbag in the making.
"Alright, let’s continue climbing the mountain," Sister Wang, the security guard, said, glancing at Qian Xiao and Yiyi. The two little ones stood back-to-back, vigilantly observing their surroundings.
She nodded to herself. This was one of the safer defensive formations on a battlefield, allowing one to take in every rustle of grass and breath of wind in the vicinity.
Still, there was no danger anywhere nearby. When it came to protection, she and her five sisters were the professionals.
Xu Yiyi and Qian Xiao remained motionless. Solemn expressions appeared on their small faces as they sensed an extremely dangerous aura. There was likely more than one person lurking in the shadows.
"Yiyi, we’re surrounded," Qian Xiao whispered.
"Mhm," Yiyi nodded slightly. "You take the teachers and students and go first."
"What about you?"
"I’ll hold them off."
"No," Qian Xiao shook his head firmly. "Either you go first, or I stay."
For Qian Xiao, all the beauty in the world couldn’t compare to his big sister’s smile. How could he leave Xu Yiyi here alone? He wasn’t a three-year-old child; he was already six. Fleeing in the face of the enemy was not something a man should do.
"Such a strong Divine Sense." 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞
Accompanied by an exclamation of surprise, a figure emerged abruptly from the stream, startling Miao Momo and the other teachers so badly that they broke out in goosebumps.
He was an old man with a full head of white hair. Despite his age and weathered face, he was 1.8 meters tall with the sturdy build of a tiger. His eyes held none of the cloudiness of old age; instead, they glinted with vitality.
Mou Yuan stared at Qian Xiao and Xu Yiyi, baring his teeth in a grin. "What cute children."
"We don’t know you," Yiyi said, her small face stern. "Please leave, or don’t blame us for not being polite."
"Hahaha!" Mou Yuan’s laughter echoed across the mountainside. "I’d like to see how you won’t be polite, but you won’t get the chance. Now, obediently become my meal."
As he spoke, a blood-red moon appeared behind him—the Blood Moon Technique!
The moment it appeared, the world itself seemed to transform. The weather, sunny just a moment before, was instantly blotted out by dark clouds. Countless wronged souls drifted through the sky, and a Sea of Blood surged across the ground, filled with innumerable bleached skeletons. This place had become a living Hell!
"Aah!"
The children from Galaxy Kindergarten couldn’t bear the terrifyingly sinister aura and instantly passed out. Miao Momo and the other teachers also went limp and collapsed.
Of those present, the only ones still standing were Qian Xiao, Xu Yiyi, and the kindergarten’s security guard, Sister Wang. Though she remained on her feet, her legs trembled uncontrollably. "Xu Yiyi, Qian Xiao, get behind me! I’ll protect you!"
"Ridiculous." Mou Yuan sneered. A mere mortal daring to boast so shamelessly in front of him—she was courting death!
With a cold snort, he unleashed an endless pressure that blanketed the area, forcing the trembling Sister Wang to her knees. If Xu Yiyi and Qian Xiao hadn’t simultaneously released their own auras to shield her, her body would have likely shattered, its blood essence absorbed into the Blood Moon behind Mou Yuan.
Even so, the terror was enough to make Sister Wang’s vision go black before she fainted completely.
"A Moon Clan member at the peak of the Golden Core realm..." Yiyi’s little face was etched with gravity.
Without hesitation, she retrieved a sword from her Storage Space. It was a slender blade, white as jade, that emitted a crystalline luster in the dim light. Wisps of refreshing Spiritual Energy drifted from it, soothing the soul.
The moment it appeared, Mou Yuan’s pupils shrank.
He had seen this sword before. In fact, he and the other fifteen Crescent Moon Clan Elders still hiding in the shadows had all seen it. This was the Yunxiao Sword, which belonged to the Sect Master of the Yunxiao Sect!
Three hundred years ago, Li Qingzhou had jumped into the Sea of the Moon in search of his Junior Sister Gong Qiu. Using a Sword Intent he had nurtured for thirty-three years, he slew the Demonic Beast guarding the gate. Only later did he realize that this Demonic Beast was his junior sister, who had been missing for five years. She had been turned into a Puppet by a woman in a green dress deep within the Sea of the Moon. As a puppet, she was forced to kill more than three hundred elders from the Three Sects and the Nine Pavilions who had fought and died alongside Li Qingzhou.
In a brief moment of lucidity, consumed by guilt and despair, Li Qingzhou buried the elders. He then took the sword that should have belonged to his junior sister and thrust it through his own skull, ending his tormented life.
Of course, this secret was known to only a few. The leading powers, from the sects and pavilions to the Moon Clan’s own nobility, were unaware of the full story. Therefore, Mou Yuan and the others only recognized that this sword had once belonged to the Sect Master of the Yunxiao Sect.
Spiritual Energy flowed around the sword’s body. Xu Yiyi faced the Moon Clan powerhouse, her expression grave.
In that instant, her aura changed, becoming exceptionally gentle, like a spring breeze caressing one’s face.
Mou Yuan’s eyes widened in shock. He actually sensed a hint of danger from the unknown little girl before him. She was only in the early stage of the Golden Core realm, yet she made him—a cultivator at the half-step Nascent Soul realm—feel as if he were facing a formidable enemy. What a promising seedling.
"Are you willing to join our Moon Clan?" Mou Yuan’s eyes flickered. "As long as you swear a blood oath, I can pass on to you our clan’s Blood Moon Technique. The Moon King might even bestow upon you the surname Ji!"
Xu Yiyi didn’t reply, instead tightening her grip on her sword.
Qian Xiao seized the opportunity to move the unconscious teachers and classmates to the side. As he did, he noticed something was wrong. He detected several other auras in the shadows, their owners making no effort to conceal their presence.
Qian Xiao shouted, "Yiyi, there are at least ten of them!"
SWOOSH! SWOOSH! SWOOSH!
The fifteen hidden Moon Clan Elders appeared simultaneously. With each one that materialized, the expressions on Xu Yiyi’s and Qian Xiao’s faces grew several shades more serious. One of the Elders tossed a man who was on his last breath onto the ground.
It was Tan Chang.
His mouth was sealed, rendering him unable to speak. His face was etched with anguish as his eyes frantically signaled for Xu Yiyi and the others to flee.
"It’s you?" Xu Yiyi froze.
After reaching the Golden Core realm, she had occasionally sensed Tan Chang from the Martial Dao Association secretly following her. To meet again in such a scenario was something she never expected.
"Elder Mou, since they refuse to abandon the darkness for the light, then we have no other choice," a Crescent Moon Clan Elder said ruthlessly. "Eat them."
"Mhm." Mou Yuan nodded with a hint of regret.
The Blood Moon in the sky rotated, transforming into a long spear. It shot forth as a streak of light, piercing toward Xu Yiyi with unimaginable speed
