The Rumored Senior Martial Sister (I)

A powerful force swept all sorts of oppressive aura over Hong Xian'er and the other women, pushing back even Ge Lian's group as the latter lightly spat out a trail of blood. Ge Lian's pupils shrank as she felt terror at this strength that far surpassed her own.

"I can't stop you from doing whatever you want either?"

A cold voice made Ge Lian shiver much more, somehow feeling that she recognized this voice a little. But when she searched for the source of this voice, she froze.

Wearing a beautiful pure white dress with lace and strips of transparent white cloth hanging from her delicate arms, Xuanyuan Ling appeared with a domineering and cold aura. Her cold eyes gazed at Ge Lian mercilessly.

"Sister Ling!"

Pang Wuya, An Qinmeng and An Yuqing exclaimed in surprise as they recognized Xuanyuan Ling before their gazes flashed with joy. But quickly the hint of worry crossed their minds.

"Sister Ling you have to go! Ge Lian has also reached the Nascent Soul stage and the others are at the Golden Core stages!"

"Don't worry about us, we'll be fine!"

An Yuqing and An Qinmeng quickly exclaimed as they threw their own auras towards Ge Lian trying to attract her attention and let Xuanyuan Ling leave.

They knew that Xuanyuan was also at the Nascent Soul realm the last time they saw her, but now Ge Lian had also entered this stage and the other women also had high cultivation bases. It would be very difficult for Xuanyuan Ling to take them all on; even powerful cultivators would be overwhelmed by sheer numbers despite their own strength.

"It's alright, sisters. Don't worry. They won't be able to do anything to me." Xuanyuan Ling faced Ge Lian's group, looking at her coldly and indifferently. Her small back faced towards Pang Wuya's group and the other women, but it somehow conveyed confidence and security to them.

"Xuanyuan Ling..."

Ge Lian whispered with resentment and even jealousy at the sight of Xuanyuan Ling, not failing to look up into her eyes with hatred. Somehow she had a bad feeling seeing her in this place. Wasn't this woman younger than her supposed to have gone with the former leaders of the place? What was she doing here?

"She is the rumored senior martial sister Xuanyuan Ling?" Hong Xian'er whispered in awe, sensing Xuanyuan Ling's majestic power that conveyed safety and confidence, making her feel that nothing will happen to her. Hong Xian'er had heard many things about this great martial sister who was the main disciple of all her Masters, feeling admiration and amazement towards Xuanyuan Ling all this time and wanting to become like her.

Hong Xian'er had not met her due to the fact that she had not been in the sect for long and even more so that her senior sisters had told her that Xuanyuan Ling had been out of the sect for a long time as well, so Hong Xian'er had never seen her in person. But now Hong Xian'er was certain that this woman was really Xuanyuan Ling; the grace and beauty she displayed at this moment, as well as the sense of power and strength was not something that could be faked, so this young woman like her really had the capital and strength to be a great powerful cultivator.

""Big Sister Ling!"" Jia Chenxin and Jia Chenruo whispered happily upon seeing Xuanyuan Ling.

The other women also nodded in happiness upon seeing Xuanyuan Ling again, feeling confident again.

"If Senior Martial Sister is here, then the Masters are also back?"

Pang Wuya suddenly reacted and murmured in surprise, hoping that what she thought was true. Xuanyuan Ling's presence gladdened her heart and she hoped that the Masters would also return with her.

An Qinmeng and An Yuqing were dumbfounded to hear Pang Wuya's murmur before looking expectantly at Xuanyuan Ling. Each and every one of the women were also dumbfounded and looked silently at Xuanyuan Ling, their hearts beating fiercely at the desire to see their beloved and respected Masters again.

"They are not here in the Sect at the moment, but our Masters are fine! They will be back!" Xuanyuan Ling nodded firmly, giving no space for doubt.

An Qinmeng, An Yuqing, Pang Wuya and all the women smiled joyfully as they listened to Xuanyuan Ling. Some even cried with joy and excitement, looking forward to seeing their Masters again.

"Then they're going to come back..." Ge Lian's pupils shrank slightly as she listened to Xuanyuan Ling. A hint of worry and horror covered her heart as she knew that the former sect leaders would return. If that happened, then they would try to regain control of the place, causing her and the others to lose their rule and position! Needless to say, each of the former leaders of the sect, as well as their former Masters are powerful forces in the world!

Jing Yuzheng and the women around Ge Lian immediately paled, thinking that those powerful female Masters would return. Horror covered each one as they thought of what their Masters would do to them for betraying and hurting their other companions, resulting in them having betrayed the trust and bond to their Masters.

"But even though my Masters are not here, I still won't forgive you for what you have done. No one will be able to save you!" Xuanyuan Ling slightly increased the aura of her cultivation, squeezing Ge Lian. Her cold gaze was mainly focused on Ge Lian, especially after she had heard about what had happened in the Sect moments ago when she encountered a female companion of hers.

Ge Lian gritted her teeth tightly as she felt Xuanyuan Ling's powerful energy. She could not move easily despite her powerful Nascent Soul cultivation. Her gaze showed surprise as she tried to see Xuanyuan Ling's cultivation level.

"You really have become very strong in the Nascent Soul realm to the point of advancing one or two stages in such a short time... but I'm not alone!" Ge Lian observed coldly without taking her eyes off Xuanyuan Ling. She was certain that although she was stronger than her, Xuanyuan Ling would be at the very Late Stage Nascent Soul at most, so Ge Lian was not that desperate. She was also at the Nascent Soul realm and several of her subordinates were at the Golden Core stage! Even a powerful cultivator would be overwhelmed in the face of numbers!

Although Ge Lian knew that she would lose quickly if Xuanyuan Ling chose to do a soul attack, Ge Lian knew that she couldn't waste time and allow her to do such a thing, so the primary thing was to attack quickly.

The women beside Ge Lian raised their auras to the top, directing their auras towards Xuanyuan Ling. They too did not believe that this woman they admired and envied could come out unscathed. Even Jing Yuzheng looked competitively at Xuanyuan Ling, raising her aura as well and wanting to suppress her albeit momentarily despite the difference in their strength.

"Sister Ling..."

An Qinmeng and An Yuqing were about to cast their auras as well to help just like Pang Wuya when they noticed that Xuanyuan Ling only raised her hand calmly, nodding at them as a small smile filled with assurance and confidence appeared on her.

The various powerful auras fell upon Xuanyuan Ling instantly, turning the space around into something heavy and sluggish! They even reached to cover Hong Xian'er and the other women!

"So powerful!" Hong Xian'er couldn't help but kneel on one leg as she felt the trails of auras reach her as well, feeling tightness in her chest as she couldn't breathe properly. She didn't know how this powerful martial sister who was the role model of them all could resist such power, but when Hong Xian'er looked up, she froze just like Jia Chenxin, Jia Chenruo and the other women.

"Have you finished? Is this all your strength? It's only a few light breezes of air~" Xuanyuan Ling proceeded to speak with an indifferent and somewhat mocking tone, but if anyone nearby looked at her they would notice that her expression looked very similar to Ling Tian's.

Ling Tian simply smiled at the sight of Xuanyuan Ling, not deciding to intervene for the time being and leaving her to deal with the matter.

"But what..." Ge Lian was dumbfounded at the sight of Xuanyuan Ling. Not only her, but all the women looked towards Xuanyuan Ling in shock. Xuanyuan Ling was standing calmly without showing any signs of falling or even a face of despair or terror, as if she really felt mere breezes of airs!

Xuanyuan Ling would have some defensive artifact? Or some offensive device that would allow her to resist the pressure together from all of them? How come she has not yet fallen to the ground begging for mercy?

Ge Lian quickly thought of many answers when the next moment her face paled and terror assaulted her as she did not want to believe her last theory. She did not continue to think any further when she made the decision to escape and seek her Master's help.

"You want to escape?"

Xuanyuan Ling's cold voice spread among all the women, startling them as they realized that Ge Lian had moved a few meters away, wanting to escape.

The next moment, the Cultivation Essence Giant Hand from Xuanyuan Ling materialized in the air and caught Ge Lian instantly as she was trapped in space when a mysterious force caught her!
