C561 Servant girl?
It was really too unexpected.
According to what the Wu Ancestor told Su Ye through the sound transmission when he appeared at the seventy-fifth trial, there were some secrets hidden behind the Green Cloud Trials. Even the Huangfu Clan could think of obtaining this secret, but they couldn't open the Seven Stars Immortal Gate in the end which was why they couldn't take the secret away.
As one of the six great clans of the outer sect, it was the genuine Greencloud Association. In the entire Huangfu clan controlled inner and outer sect, the ones who had the deepest understanding of the Qing Yun Immortal Scripture were none other than their six Heavenly Immortal Patriarchs.
However, even they were unable to open the Seven Stars Immortal Gate in one go and take away the hidden secrets within.
There were a total of 160 stages to the Qingyun Trials.
Those who passed the one hundred sixtieth trial would be able to enter the hidden final trial, which was the Seven Stars Profound Gate.
There was a Seven Stars Ancient Formation there. One needed to gather seven people who had extremely deep comprehension of the Qing Yun Immortal Scripture, and at least ninety percent of the true disciples of the Greencloud Ancestor would be able to activate the Seven Stars Ancient Formation and open the Seven Stars Immortal Gate.
The six Celestial Immortal Patriarchs of the six great clans of the Outer Sect were just barely capable of doing so, but they were still one short out of seven.
Just this one more and there's a problem.
The Huangfu Clan had previously hinted to the six great clans that the Huangfu Clan could provide this quota and join hands to open the Seven Stars Immortal Gate.
The six Celestial Immortal Patriarchs rejected him without even thinking about it. They directly expressed to the Huangfu clan that their abilities weren't sufficient to reach the Seven Star Arena.
Why?
It was very simple. Once the Huangfu clan participated in this sort of thing, then the secrets of the Qingyun Trials basically had nothing to do with the six great clans. All of them would belong to the Huangfu Clan.
This meant that the six great families would have to work for the Huangfu Clan for nothing, and would not even be able to drink the soup in the end. The six great families still hoped that the secrets hidden in the Clear Sky Trials would strengthen themselves; how could they do such a stupid thing?
Thus, they naturally offended the Huangfu Family. On the surface, the Huangfu clan didn't say anything. After all, the six major clans of the outer sect were not weak. Unless it was absolutely necessary, the Huangfu clan wouldn't do anything to destroy the Great Wall.
The Huangfu clan's covert suppression of the six great clans had indeed made things difficult for the outer sect disciples. However, due to the importance of the matter, the six Heavenly Immortal Patriarchs of the outer sect could not admit defeat. They would never give up on the secrets and benefits of the Seven Stars Immortal Sect.
Just like that, both sides started to secretly compete with each other.
Not only did the Huangfu Clan secretly suppress the six great clans of the outer sect, they also secretly found people from within the Huangfu Clan to cultivate with Qing Yun Immortal Scripture. They tried to cultivate seven experts who could open the Seven Stars Immortal Gate, so that they could get rid of the six great clans from the outer sect by themselves.
The six great clans were also secretly working hard, hoping to bring up someone who could cooperate with them.
But how could this be so simple?
To train an expert to participate in the Seven Stars Ancient Formation was basically to nurture a Celestial Immortal. This wasn't as simple as spending all sorts of herbs to raise pigs; it required a long period of time and a considerable amount of effort.
As a result, the two sides competed with each other, and the situation became tense. Neither of them succeeded when the other completely abandoned the possibility of cooperation.
Just then, Su Qingwu appeared.
After Wu Shaofan led his people to the outer sect to show off his might and cause a series of troubles, the Wu family was easily annihilated by Su Qingwu. At the same time, he revealed an unfathomable level of strength to intimidate the six great clans of the outer sect, Su Qingwu also contacted the six Heavenly Immortal Patriarchs of the six great clans of the outer sect and offered to open the Seven Stars Immortal Gate for them.
After considering his options, the six Heavenly Immortal Patriarchs of the outer sect decided to agree to Su Qingwu's request. The reason was simple. Although Su Qingwu had displayed terrifying strength, an unfathomable cultivation level and the feeling of working with Su Qingwu as if he was a fox, in their eyes, this was still more promising than working with the Huangfu Clan.
The six great clans of the outer sect had stood tall for many years under the name of the inner sect Clan, and although it seemed to be quite mighty, only the six Heavenly Immortal Patriarchs knew clearly of the coldness in the clan's might. If they did not have no other choice, they would not be willing to rely on the Huangfu Clan.
The six Heavenly Immortal Patriarchs of the outer sect were worried as well. They suspected that the Huangfu clan had prepared quite a bit in secret. If they didn't act now, all the benefits might be taken away by the Huangfu clan.
However, even though he had agreed to cooperate with Su Qingwu, Su Qingwu had never revealed himself, and asked him if he wanted to directly participate in the Qingyun Trials, Su Qingwu did not say anything, and only said it at that time.
The six Sky Immortal Patriarchs were helpless, but they could only continue their cooperation. Each of them sent the Yan Xia Six Zi out to participate in the Cyan Cloud Trial as a pawn of their immortal souls, while awaiting further news from Su Qingwu.
Because of Su Ye's appearance, a series of changes occurred during the Qingyun Trials. It was so much so that it directly threatened Zhou Yiqing's life and death, causing the six Heavenly Immortal Patriarchs to become anxious. They all ordered their men to stop Su Ye, and that they could kill him at a critical moment.
Unexpectedly, at the most critical moment, Su Qingwu had actually sent a message to them, telling them that the person who could cooperate with them and eventually open the Seven Stars Immortal Sect was Su Ye.
The six Heavenly Immortal Patriarchs of the outer sect were so angry that they couldn't do anything. However, things had already gotten to this point, they could only come to an agreement with Su Ye and resolve the situation. He decided to open the Seven Stars Immortal Gate together.
In other words, the Six Smoke Children and Su Ye had formed seven people who were supposed to open the Seven Stars Ancient Formation.
But now, Zhou Yiqing, who was one of the Six Yan Clan disciples, had actually died, and even destroyed the Soul Fusion Pearl that contained the soul of the Zhou clan's ancestor, it was equivalent to destroying their entire plan.
Of the six people remaining, there were only five of them, and Su Ye was also the only one remaining. Even if they managed to reach the Seven Stars Profound Entrance in the end, they could only sigh in joy at the sight of the Seven Stars Ancient Formation.
However, this was not enough to make Su Ye flustered and exasperated.
To be honest, he did not know what other Seven Stars Immortal Gate was hidden in the Green Cloud Test. His original intention for participating in the test was to give Huangfu Changtian, who went back on his word, a eye-catching slap, and also take his close partner for a stroll around the Mystery Clearing Realm.
The alliance between the six clans was an accident.
As the saying goes, there is no expectation, and there is no disappointment. Naturally, there is no unwillingness to lose something that one does not expect to obtain.
What truly enraged Su Ye was that after Seven Devils of Black Rock killed Zhou Yiqing, his gaze fell on Wan Fang.
Su Ye did not know who Seven Devils of Black Rock was, and did not know his identity, but he knew that the other party was a genuine Heavenly Immortal.
Seven such characters had locked onto Wan Fang.
Even when Su Ye imprinted a seal on Wan Fang's soul, he had still secretly left a trump card on Wan Fang's body.
Forget about Wan Fang, even Su Ye himself wouldn't be able to fend off the seven Heavenly Immortals without the Constellation Saber and the Mountain River Diagram.
As such, Wan Fang was easily dragged down the stage by the Seven Devils of Black Rock. Even though Su Ye was guiding the way, Wan Fang did not have enough time to rush past the seventy-six stages.
In an instant, Wan Fang was dragged to the front of Seven Devils of Black Rock, sealed by immortal energy in the air.
In front of the seven Heavenly Immortals, Su Ye could not guarantee that the imprint he left in Wan Fang's soul would not be detected.
He retracted his consciousness and tried to keep the imprint deep inside of Wan Fang's soul. He returned the control of his body to Wan Fang and only left a tiny connection with her.
This meant that Su Ye was no longer able to bring Wan Fang to use the methods he had used on the seven Heavenly Immortals.
Wan Fang was terrified.
In front of the seven Celestial Immortals … there was no way he wouldn't feel fear.
Fear floated above the charming face. Pale and bloodless, that was an instinct.
"Who are you two?"
Wan Fang trembled as she asked this question, her mind was in a state of turmoil. If not for Su Ye's constant reminders to her that she should not panic, she would have broken down on the spot.
Fortunately, Su Ye's soul imprint was far too profound. Even Seven Devils of Black Rock was unable to see through the secret of this weak girl's body.
Fortunately, there was nothing wrong with the frightened look on Wan Fang's face.
When the Seven Devils of Black Rock unintentionally detected the Zhou ancestor's soul, which was hiding on Zhou Yiqing's body, and immediately destroyed the Zhou ancestor's soul, he relaxed. Without the Zhou Ancestor, the Six Great Families' scheme against the Seven Stars Sect would be a failure. There wouldn't be anyone who would spoil their plans right now. How could they care about a weak woman at the third level of the sacred art?
Moreover, this weak woman had an incomparably beautiful face. She looked so delicate and pitiful, and it was very attractive.
Not bad, this little girl is a very interesting girl, especially someone with a cultivation at the third level of the Divine Abilities. She can actually reach the seventy-sixth level, and I can't sense any tricks on you, my luck isn't shallow, okay? I just happen to be lacking a maid by my side.
Seven Devils of Black Rock's Seventh Brother revealed a vulgar smile. Amongst the seven of them, this Old Seventh was the one who liked to look pretty the most. He even had a hobby, which was to have all the beautiful or magical female cultivators he met by his side for him to play with. For this reason, he even built a Ten Thousand Flowers Palace on Black Rock Island, which had thousands of beauties inside, all of which were his forbidden possessions.
Wan Fang's face became even paler, she was filled with fear and fury. Although she did not want to be killed, she also did not want to be the servant of the Seventh Brother of the Seven Devils of Black Rock. This Heavenly Immortal, who had a wretched smile, still made her feel nauseous.
