The crimson pillar of light shot up into the sky and covered the sky. The entire Imperial City could see it clearly.
Almost all the disciples of the Yuhua Sect noticed this movement. They looked up at the crimson pillar of light and were filled with confusion and surprise.
"Assembly order?
Looks like the Yuhua Sect is in trouble. "
Duan Chongyu also looked up at the sky and slowly uttered a word.
"Master Duan, what do you mean?"
Ye Chen was stunned and turned to look at Duan Chongyu.
"As long as it's a force in the Imperial City, once they encounter a life and death crisis, they will send out an assembly order. Once the assembly order is sent out, all the disciples of that force must immediately return without the slightest delay."
Hearing Duan Chongyu's words, Ye Chen's brows furrowed. He seemed to have thought of something and his expression changed drastically. He thought to himself, Could it be that something has happened in the Yuehua Continent again?
For the Yuhua Sect, the greatest danger now was the awakened Nine-Feather Phoenix.
In order to suppress the Nine-Feather Phoenix again, almost all the geniuses and masters in the sect had entered the Yuehua Continent. If something really happened there, the entire Yuhua Sect would be shaken.
"This is troublesome."
Ye Chen looked up at the crimson pillar of light and his expression became very serious. He naturally did not want to stay in the pavilion and was about to leave.
"Wait." Duan Chongyu suddenly stopped Ye Chen.
Ye Chen turned his head in confusion and looked at Duan Chongyu. The latter took out a scroll from his sleeve and handed it to Ye Chen. "There is a Soul Skill recorded in this scroll. Although you can't use your Spiritual Power flexibly now, if you really encounter any danger, this Soul Skill may be able to save your life. Be careful. Do not use it unless you have no other choice."
Soul Skill?
Ye Chen took the scroll and was a little surprised.
Only Saint level cultivators could practice something like this. Furthermore, from Duan Chongyu's tone, it seemed like he was very careful about it. It was definitely not something ordinary.
However, the situation was critical now. Ye Chen did not have time to study it carefully. He put the scroll away and immediately said, "Thank you, Master Duan."
With that, Ye Chen's figure flashed and he ran directly towards the Yuhua Sect.
Duan Chongyu looked at Ye Chen's departing figure and heaved a long sigh. Behind him, Murong Xue landed. After pondering for a while, she said, "Master, the soul skill recorded on the scroll, could it be that move?"
Duan Chongyu didn't say anything, but his sigh became even heavier. A complicated look flitted across Murong Xue's eyes as she asked, "With Ye Chen's current control of soul power, he can't even use ordinary soul skills. Why did you teach him that move?"
Murong Xue's body trembled involuntarily at the mention of the soul summoning skill.
That Soul Skill was very domineering and difficult to control at the same time.
Duan Chongyu turned to look at Murong Xue and smiled helplessly. "If it were me, I would not have taught Ye Chen the Soul Skill rashly. However, the moment I got close to Ye Chen, the scroll started to tremble uncontrollably."
"Tremble uncontrollably?"
Murong Xue was stunned. Her eyes widened. Her face was full of surprise. She said angrily, "According to Master Duan, could it be that the scroll chose Ye Chen after sensing Ye Chen's Soul Skill and recognized him as its master?"
Hearing these words, the helplessness on Duan Chongyu's face became even more apparent as he nodded his head in disappointment.
The Soul Skill recognized its own master.
It was the first time he had encountered such a mysterious matter. It was truly inconceivable.
On the other side, when Ye Chen returned to the Yuhua Sect, the Martial Arts Plaza was full of people. They gathered together and looked at the pillar of light in the distance. Their expressions were serious.
Su Tianxin, Yuan Heng, and the others were all there. Even Ye Yao was alerted. Ye Chen immediately rushed over to Ye Yao's side.
"Sister Tianxin, do you know what happened?" Ye Chen looked at Su Tianxin and asked hurriedly.
Su Tianxin shook her head. Just as she was about to speak, several light figures flew down from the sky and landed on the plaza.
"Greetings, Deputy Sect Leader."
Everyone bowed slightly when they saw the light figures.
In the air, a vigorous aura emanated from Hua Haoqiong's body. Behind him, a group of inner sect elders also stepped forward. Their gazes landed on the crowd as they said, "Now that the sect is in trouble, all inner sect disciples are to immediately follow the elders' arrangements and form a task force. Anyone who disobeys will be immediately expelled from the sect."
The crowd was in an uproar. What kind of danger was the Yuhua Sect facing? Why did they have to mobilize all their inner sect disciples?
"Ye Chen!"
Hua Haoqiong looked at Ye Chen and said, "Come with me. Everyone else, stay in the Martial Arts Plaza and wait for the elders' orders."
"Yes!"
The situation was urgent. Ye Chen didn't care too much. He immediately followed Hua Haoqiong and rushed towards the depths of the Yuhua Sect.
Halfway there.
Ye Chen saw Hua Haoqiong's serious expression and said, "Deputy Sect Leader, did something happen in the Yuhua Continent?"
"You guessed right."
Hua Haoqiong paused for a moment before he said solemnly, "Just now, we received a distress signal from Lan Yu from the Yuehua Continent. According to him, he seems to have been ambushed by the Myriad Beasts Sect. The situation is critical and we need the sect to send reinforcements to the Yuehua Continent immediately.
"Wanshou Sect?
How does this have anything to do with the Wanshou Sect? "Ye Chen exuded a cold aura. It was the Wanshou Sect again!
"I'm not too sure about this. But from the signal, the Wanshou Sect probably knew about the Nine Suns Holy Grass. They purposely let Blue Feather and the others enter the Yuhua Continent and then suddenly attacked us. They want to use this opportunity to deal a heavy blow to the Yuhua Sect." Hua Haoqiong's voice was filled with anger.
The Wanshou Sect was too much.
On the surface, they had declared an arena battle. They wanted to use this to defeat the Ascension Sect's spirit and turn them into the laughingstock of others.
Secretly, they had dispatched numerous experts into the Moonlight Continent to set up an inescapable net with the intention of massacring all of the Ascension Sect's inner court experts.
They attacked openly and attacked from the shadows. They wanted to completely destroy the Yuhua Sect.
"If Blue Feather and the others were ambushed by the Wanshou Sect, then could Liu Muyun and the others be assassins secretly sent by the Wanshou Sect?"
Ye Chen suddenly thought of this, and his heart inexplicably became restless.
If the whole thing was a scheme set up by the Wanshou Sect, Ye Chen would definitely make the Wanshou Sect pay the price in blood.
"I have already sent people to gather information. I believe there will be results soon. However, no matter what the situation is, you have to go to the Yuhua Continent. After all, you are the only person in the entire Yuhua Sect who can make me feel at ease."
Ye Chen felt the certainty in Hua Haoqiong's eyes and nodded heavily. He secretly suppressed the killing intent in his heart.
Soon, the two of them arrived at a secluded place.
Ye Chen swept the area with his gaze and noticed that there were already many elders gathered here. Surprisingly, at the front was Qiu Lianxiao, Su Miaoyue, and Gu Yunhe.
However, they did not notice Ye Chen's arrival. Instead, they looked at the two young men in front of them. They stood still and seemed to be thinking seriously.
Ye Chen frowned. When he saw the two young men clearly, his heart trembled.
He knew both of them.
One of them was Lin Guanqi.
The other was Wu Zichuan.
