Chapter 705: The Severely Injured Ancestor of Jixian Sect

Xiao Fan, who had vanished for many years, had returned!

He reached the Yuanhun Realm in just a few years, and he actually possessed the combat power of the Yuding Realm!

If this were before, when Wuhuang Province had not yet descended into chaos.

If Xiao Fan had returned with Yuding Realm combat power, then his Jixian Sect would definitely have been able to become the greatest power in Wuhuang Province in one fell swoop.

Even the Piaomiao Immortal Palace would absolutely not dare to provoke them.

"Was that just now all real?" He Yutang muttered to himself. His expression was melancholic; back then, he had even wanted to take Xiao Fan as his disciple, but as it turned out…

This Xiao Fan now had strength at the level of an Old Ancestor.

"It is real, you didn't see wrong!" Elder Shi Ji answered his question. Her expression was equally complex; the scenes of Xiao Fan at the Jixian Sect from before felt like yesterday.

At this moment, this group of Sect Masters and Elders from the Jixian Sect had a distinct feeling that they had grown old…

Just how old was Xiao Fan this year?

He was only in his twenties, yet he actually possessed the strength of the Yuding Realm!

If they gave Xiao Fan a few more years, wouldn't he be able to ascend to immortality?

…

"What was going on with the Diao Family just now? They actually fled in such a sorry state!"

"What was that commotion from inside the imperial palace just now… And that pitch-black, terrifying Sword Qi, what was that!"

"Did something happen over at the imperial palace… Why was the commotion so loud!"

"…"

Within the imperial city, people were discussing it everywhere. Xiao Fan's powerful display just now had shocked everyone in the city.

Furthermore, the members of the Diao Family had just fled the imperial palace in a sorry state, and now the group had already left the imperial city.

Everyone knew that something major and extraordinary must have happened inside the imperial palace.

…

"This is…" Xiao Fan's expression was grave as he looked at the Ancestor of Jixian Sect in front of him, who was currently severely injured.

"He was injured by a mysterious person from the side of the demon cultivators…" Wu Juesheng spoke, his expression grave.

After he took Xiao Fan away, he brought him directly to a Secret Room in the underground palace beneath the imperial palace.

The Ancestor of Jixian Sect was currently here, sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed. His aura was weak, his injuries were extremely severe, and there was a terrifying bloody hole in his abdomen…

Moreover, this bloody hole showed no signs of healing, and it constantly emitted bursts of terrifying blood mist, which was eroding the Physical Body of the Ancestor of Jixian Sect at every moment.

The Ancestor of Jixian Sect had not awakened; he was continuously mobilizing his spiritual energy to stabilize his injuries.

Beside him, the Ziyun Grotto-Heaven Ancestor was the same; half of his body was already gone, as if it had been cleaved off by a sword. His injuries were even more severe than the Ancestor of Jixian Sect, and the aura he was emitting now was even weaker.

Besides these two severely injured people, the Ancestor of Piaomiao Immortal Palace and the Ancestor of Leihuo Sect were also present, acting as Protectors for the two.

"Half a month ago, the demon cultivators split into two forces to launch a sneak attack, so we split into two groups to resist… As a result, that mysterious powerhouse in the Jiesheng Realm struck, severely injuring these two. By the time I arrived, he had already left…"

Wu Juesheng's face was livid as he recounted what happened half a month ago.

Currently, the Human Race and the demon cultivators each occupied half of Wuhuang Province.

Half a month ago, the Ancestor of Jixian Sect and the Ziyun Grotto-Heaven Ancestor were attacked together, and as a result…

Xiao Fan's expression was grave. He had met the Ancestor of Jixian Sect once before, back when the latter sent him into the Secret Realm.

As it turned out, he hadn't expected that their next meeting would be in such a situation.

The Ancestor of Piaomiao Immortal Palace and the Ancestor of Leihuo Sect were sitting on a long bench, sizing Xiao Fan up continuously.

The commotion outside just now naturally could not be hidden from them.

And they also hadn't expected that Xiao Fan could actually erupt with Yuding Realm strength while in the Yuanhun Realm!

This was too terrifying!

This was still only with Xiao Fan currently being in the Yuanhun Realm; what if he reached the Pi Hai Realm in the future?

If he reached the Yuding Realm, wouldn't he be able to fight against the Jiesheng Realm?!

"How are their injuries right now?" Xiao Fan asked in a deep voice; he hadn't expected the situation to be like this.

"Not optimistic. It would be good enough if they could just survive… It will be very difficult for them to retain their Peak strength!" Wu Juesheng said in a deep voice.

"Without Peak strength!" Xiao Fan's expression was grave. In the current stalemate, if the Human Race side was missing two Yuding Realm powerhouses, then the situation was self-evident!!

And Xiao Fan also realized the reason why the Ancestor of Jixian Sect never stepped forward when Nangong Lingxuan was being forced into marriage!

He suspected that not even Sect Master Wu Xinjue, Sect Master Xu Yongnian, and the others were aware that the Ancestor of Jixian Sect was currently severely injured.

After all, the current situation outside was too chaotic. If news of the Yuding Realm Ancestor of Jixian Sect being severely injured were to spread, it would inevitably cause panic.

"Little friend, your return is just in time." Wu Juesheng looked at Xiao Fan, his eyes flashing with sharp light.

"The current situation in Wuhuang Province is complex, and we are missing two Yuding Realm powerhouses. If the demon cultivators attack again, it will be very difficult for our Human Race side to resist, and we might even collapse completely. In the end, the humans of Wuhuang Province will all end up as blood food…"

Wu Juesheng explained the current situation to Xiao Fan in detail.

Originally, it was publicly claimed that the Human Race side only had four Yuding Realm powerhouses and one in the Early Stage of the Jiesheng Realm!

Wu Liang was originally a hidden combat force, a backup plan that the Human Race side intended to save for a critical moment!

But they hadn't expected that the demon cultivators would suddenly launch an attack, setting an ambush in advance to severely injure the Ancestor of Jixian Sect and the Ziyun Grotto-Heaven Ancestor.

The current situation was extremely unfavorable for the Human Race.
