Chapter 586: Meeting Duan Yao Again

The green lights were like a shrinking copper bell, crashing toward Little White and Zhao Yanzi.
Dong!
Little White rushed over and was knocked back by an invisible wall with clanging, metal-colliding noise.
Hundreds of cultivators of Sky Mountain Sect stood in their precise positions in the sky, making the array formation even more powerful.
“Reckless brat, surrender!” The black-faced cultivator sad on his level 4 snow lion and yelled with anger as he held a black sword in his hand.
Now, he was confident that this girl was not a part of Sky Mountain Sect. Although he didn’t know where she got the level 3 snow lion, she was in trouble after hundreds of cultivators of Sky Mountain Sect chased after her.
The array formation built in the sky was called Ziwei Beast Trap Array. It was not the most powerful array formation but could be built with some cultivators without using dharma treasures.
The cultivators of Sky Mountain Sect would use this array formation to capture demon beasts below level 6, so it was quite effective in trapping Little White.
Sky Mountain Sect excelled in raising spirit beasts, making elixir pills, and creating array formations, which explained why it had a stable position on Sixth Heaven. The sect had nine elders in the Nascent Soul Realm, over 200 Core Formation Realm cultivators, and countless Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators.
The so-called first-tier sects on Fifth Heaven only had a dozen or so Core Formation Realm cultivators at the most. However, there were already dozens of Core Formation Realm cultivators of Sky Mountain Sect chasing after Zhao Yanzi and Little White, which showed the great power of Sky Mountain Sect!
“Little girl, report your sect name and master, and you may live!” Controlling the shrinking array formation, the black-faced cultivator called out to Zhao Yanzi.
With Zhao Yanzi in his control, he could kill her at any time. However, despite his fury, he didn’t dare to act rashly since she had a level 3 snow lion, which showed that she might have some connections with Sky Mountain Sect.
It was no problem to lock her down and bring her back to Sky Mountain Sect for interrogation.
All the cultivators of Sky Mountain Sect on and above the Core Formation Realm were familiar with the Ziwei Beast Trap Array and had never failed to trap demon beasts that were weaker than level 6.
“Yuck!” Zhao Yanzi glared at him and said, “There are so many of you dealing with me. If you dare, come and fight me one to one!”
“Hahahaha!” The black-faced cultivator laughed, “You won’t trick us. I will capture you after I close the array formation.”
Zhao Yanzi began to sweat. In fact, she was just trying to act brave. After all, how could she come up with any tricks at such a moment?
“Be quick and tell us your sect and master. Otherwise, I’ll show no mercy to you!” The black-faced cultivator put on his fierce look and yelled.
Zhao Yanzi gritted her teeth. Seeing that Little White was still trying to break out despite the wounds all over its body, she hugged it carefully, feeling terrifying since she felt like she dragged it into this situation.
In this desperate situation, the first person she thought of was Hao Ren instead of her parents.
“Little White, don’t waste your energy.” Zhao Yanzi rubbed Little White’s head and raised her head suddenly. She shouted, “It’s me who caused the trouble. Let Little White go!”
“Hahaha!” The black-faced cultivator laughed again, “The value of your snow lion is far greater than you. Since I’ve got both of you, how can I let the snow lion go?!”
Zhao Yanzi didn’t reply. She was determined to fight this black-faced cultivator to death if he tried to capture her.
“I, Zhao Yanzi, will not surrender!” she thought.
“Humph! Still not surrendering?! Back!” The black-faced cultivator’s face darkened.
He had given Zhao Yanzi the chance, but she wasn’t willing to tell him the names of her sect and master, giving him no reason to spare her life!
If the array formation shrunk, Little White would be trapped for sure; Zhao Yanzi’s life was longer a concern for them.
He didn’t need to catch Zhao Yanzi in person. If she lived, he would bring her back to the sect!
“Little White, don’t die!” Seeing the array formation suddenly shrinking, Zhao Yanzi used all her nature essence to create an energy sphere to protect Little White.
The Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators of Sky Mountain Sect who were standing around the Core Formation Realm cultivators to assist with the array formation were stunned.
They had seen spirit beasts trying to protect their masters in dangerous situations but not the other way around!
They didn’t know that Zhao Yanzi’s stubbornness was showing. Since she brought innocent Little White into trouble, she wanted to protect it!
Zhao Yanzi was willful and unreasonable on the surface, but she was loyal and principle-driven deep down. She would always admit to her mistakes and take responsibility even though she never said it.
With her stubborn personality, she would instead give in in secret than admit it in public.
Whenever Hao Ren pointed out the mistakes in her homework, she would make the excuses of carelessness. But after Hao Ren was gone, she would think about her mistakes earnestly!
No one saw her hard work because she didn’t want people to see that she was changing for Hao Ren!
Bang!
The hexagonal array formation shrunk to one meter before tightening into a circle.
Zhao Yanzi felt as if all her bones were breaking, but she persisted with gritted teeth.
Bam! Her weak energy sphere shattered.
Bang! A louder explosion noise suddenly appeared.
Zhao Yanzi found that the pressure on her body disappeared!
“Hao Ren!” Zhao Yanzi’s first thought was that Hao Ren had come!
However, when she opened her eyes and looked carefully, she found that the golden bell hanging on Little White’s neck broke.
The Lu sisters gave the small bell to Hao Ren, and he had hung it on Little White’s neck.
At this moment, the bell broke and caused a great explosion!
The shattered bell turned into a burst of golden dust, flying in all directions and instantly breaking the array formation built by hundreds of cultivators.
“Impossible!” The black-faced cultivator was astonished.
This array formation could even trap level 6 demon beasts. In theory, it could also trap Nascent Soul Realm cultivators. However, it was broken!
Swoosh! Little White was the first to react, and it flew toward East with flames burning on its paws.
The cultivators of Sky Mountain Sect were knocked back five to six meters due to the collapsing array formation and thus didn’t react to the situation in time.
The black-faced cultivator reacted the fastest, but he lost Little White who ran at full speed after chasing for hundreds of meters
“Chase after her!” The black-faced cultivator returned to the group and shouted, shaking with fury.
After all, it was a big humiliation that hundreds of cultivators of Sky Mountain Sect couldn’t trap a young Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator with a level 3 snow lion!
“From the looks of it, a troublesome figure like her on Fifth Heaven is probably related to the mysterious City Sect!” he thought.
…
Still frightened, Zhao Yanzi almost cried at the narrow escape. She had been thinking of fighting the black-faced cultivator to death, but the array formation suddenly broke.
She didn’t know that the Lu sister had given the golden bell to Hao Ren so that he could summon them in an emergency. The other function of the golden bell was that if the Lu sister couldn’t come in time, the golden bell would explode under enormous pressure and break any attack or siege!
In the past, Hao Ren needed this golden bell since he was weak, but the golden bell never exploded. This time, it saved Zhao Yanzi and Little White!
“Humph! I finally found you!”
Zhao Yanzi was about to heave a sigh of relief when she heard a shout.
She looked up and saw Duan Yao in her green silk robe flying toward her on a white snow lion.
Duan Yao didn’t know that Zhao Yanzi had just escaped from a major battle. She was patrolling on Fifth Heaven and found this place with the guidance of her jade pendant.
After Zhao Yanzi wounded her, she went to her Grand Uncle-Master for help. Hearing her words, the protective Grand Uncle-Master was furious.
Although the injuries were no big deal, it was a serious business to lose the Purple Green Treasure Sword!
Duan Yao had been brought up by this Grand Uncle-Master who loved her as his own granddaughter. He was furious by the fact that a little brat was bold enough to wound Duan Yao and take the Sky Mountain Sect’s treasures and techniques by force!
Immediately, this Grand Uncle-Master issued Sky Mountain Order and gave Duan Yao the Sky-Turning Stamp, which was a powerful dharma treasure, so that she can get her revenge.
Having just escaped, Zhao Yanzi was still panting with fear. Seeing Duan Yao taking out a shiny golden stamp, she knew she was in danger and fled toward the direction of the Ethereal Summit.
“Don’t run!” Duan Yao lifted the Sky-Turning Stamp.
Boom! The Sky-Turning Stamp shot out a golden stamp pattern.
Zhao Yanzi lifted the Purple Green Treasure Sword to block it, but she was no match for it and was sent flying for hundreds of meters with Little White, crashing onto a mountain.
Xie Yujia was cultivating in her cave abode in Ethereal Summit with 36 golden and silver dharma notes rotating around her slowly.
Suddenly, she heard the booming sounds outside of the valley. Frowning, she stood up and went out to check.
