The Ancestor of our Sect Isn’t Acting like an Elder Chapter 329

Chapter 268 - A Light

The cyan-silver-colored girl remained silent for a long time.

She just quietly fixed her eyes on the two, showing no emotion.

What to do? Xue Qilin hesitated. If the other party showed hostility, she could choose to run away or fight; if the other party extended a hand of goodwill, she could politely return the gesture.

However, there is nothing in Cang Lin’s gem-like eyes.

— no emotion, no shade, not even vitality. She’s like a doll made of snow.

She is still and cold, and cold air-like aura diffuses from her and permeates and erodes in all directions, as if to freeze everything and return everything to stillness.

“…”

Xue Qilin wants to ask Bei Xiaolu her thoughts on their next course of action.

However, to her alarm, she found out that she can’t speak. The mouth opened and the throat moved, yet her voice didn’t come out. She couldn’t even hear her own voice.

This anomaly does not only affect Xue Qilin, but also Bei Xiaolu.

Upon noticing the movement of Xue Qilin’s mouth, she raised her eyebrows and said something. Then, she realized that her voice can’t come out, and she revealed a surprised expression.

The two can only look at each other and see the panic in each other’s eyes.

Starting with this, Xue Qilin soon realized how strange the situation she is in is, and her heart pounded violently.

— there are no sounds.

The sounds of the brook, the sounds of the wind, and the chirping of insects, all disappeared. She can’t even feel her heartbeat and breathing. It’s like her senses were taken away, leaving her only with sight.

Then, Xue Qilin also noticed that there’s a change in her body.

The flow of true qi, which originally entered overdrive due to her heightened vigilance, actually slowed down at some point, and there are even signs that it will continue to slow down.

Xue Qilin has a hunch that if things continue like this, the true qi inside her will soon completely stagnate.

Domain! These are the effects of her domain!

While thinking this, Xue Qilin solemnly stared at Cang Lin. She suddenly realized that she underestimated the Grandmaster Realm. In the Martial Demon Realm, during her confrontation with Jia Lan, although she knows that the Grandmaster of the Vajrayana Buddhism was being lenient, but she felt that she still has the strength to fight against a Grandmaster. Only now did she realize that she was completely wrong.

Whether Cang Lin’s domain is too powerful, or all Grandmasters are like this, it still won’t change the fact that she completely suppressed Xue Qilin with her domain alone.

Xue Qilin really couldn’t imagine that if Cang Lin takes action, she will only be able to hold on for a few second. Or is she overestimating herself by thinking that she can hold on for a few second? A bitter taste welled up in her mouth. The other party, however, is still silent, only looking back at her with the shade of indifference in her eyes.

Not even given a chance to explain? Xue Qilin sighed to herself. She knows that she should leave as soon as possible, or else she will be frozen by Cang Lin’s “Domain of Stillness” sooner or later.

However, she can’t even lift her feet.

As if her feet are nailed to the ground, she can’t even muster the strength to move her legs.

It’s probably too late.

Instead of waiting until now to realize that she is in danger, she should have ran away the moment when the other party appeared.

In the face of an overwhelming difference in power, Xue Qilin can’t do anything without Phecda in her hand. She can only pray that Beiming Youyu detects her situation and comes to her rescue as soon as possible.

If she and Bei Xiaolu both die here, it will be a great loss to the Hua Dynasty’s Wulin. Taking this into account, Beiming Youyu won’t turn a blind eye. Besides, Xue Qilin believes that she has a good relationship with Beiming Youyu. The other party won’t just watch her die.

Xue Qilin is stimulating the flow of true qi inside her to decrease the rate at which its speed becomes slower. At the same time, she is condensing her aura in an attempt to break through the suppression of the other party’s domain.

Bei Xiaolu realized her intention and followed suit.

If they can’t even resist, they can only persevere until rescue arrives. Besides, Cang Lin hasn’t really made a move yet. The situation still isn’t too far gone.

While waiting for a long time, the passage of time becomes particularly distinct. Xue Qilin feels her aura become increasingly disorderly.

Little Fish, why aren’t you coming? Xue Qilin keeps calling for the only person who can save her.

Perhaps because her call was heard, a sound suddenly rose.

“Ha –”

A light yawn sounded.

The sound came from behind Bei Xiaolu. It is very light and thin. Ordinarily, it would be hard to hear it. But it sounded particularly harsh in this territory where everything is moving towards stillness.

As if the sun came out after the clouds parted —

A brilliant radiance broke into the territory controlled by Cang Lin.

The dazzling radiance nearly blinded Xue Qilin. It is brimming with majestic aura that can melt all things.

In sharp contrast with Cang Lin’s aura of stillness, the newcomer’s aura is dazzling and violent. In a flash, it thawed everything and established a footing to fight against the other party.

Brought into the aura of the newcomer, Xue Qilin got a chance to take a breather.

At this time, she should be able to breathe a sigh of relief, but she didn’t, because…

— the newcomer is more terrifying than Cang Lin.

“Ah, how rude of me. I was wondering why it is so noisy at this time of night, so I came to have a look.”

The newcomer giggled twice. The overly sweet voice made Xue Qilin’s hair stand on end. A few months ago, it was this voice that gave Xue Qilin a bone-chilling, indelible impression.

Why did she come? Xue Qilin turned her head stiffly, and the expected golden waves entered her eyes at once.

“Good night.”

The newcomer made a light curtsy and revealed a brilliant smile.

“Cang Lin, Xue Qilin, it’s been a while since I’ve seen you guys. I hope you’re doing well.”

The eyes that seem like they are made from thick coagulated blood and the face that always contains a sweet smile are still the same, seemingly indicating that no matter ho much time passes, her light won’t change.

She is a light.

Well, Jia Lan is a golden light.

“Ah…”

Jia Lan stroked her cheeks and released a moan, intoxicated.

“Thank Mahāvairocana Buddha for arranging our meeting.”

For the first time, Cang Lin’s expressionless face registered a change — she frowned.

“Jia Lan…”

“Yes, I am Jia Lan. Jia (珈) formed from the characters 王 and 加 and Lan (蓝) from the color blue (蓝色).”

Jia Lan unnaturally erased the look of intoxicated from just now and smiled gracefully.

“Cang Lin, we haven’t seen each other for a long time. I heard that you went to the Northern Kingdom’s border in order to deal with the invasion of the Caliphate. I was worried about you for a whole. It’s great to see that you’re fine and well.”

Just like before, Jia Lan’s voice is overly sweet, as if dripping honey. But underneath that alluring outward appearance lies a venom that could doom a person to death.

“If you died at the hands of the Caliphate people, I may have had a lot less fun.”

A sigh full of sorrow flowed out from Jia Lan’s lush lips, and she showed a perplexed smile.
