Chapter 315: Adaptation (22)

"Master, I will go inform Grandmother!"

Jiu Ji hurriedly left after saying this and fled the Cave Mansion.

Chen An urged his other wives and concubines, "Everyone, quickly pack up the things we need to bring. Once Jiu Ji returns with her grandmother, we will leave immediately."

Upon hearing this, the wives and concubines all started to move.

Chen Yuejian pursed her lips and looked at her elderly father with some reluctance. She asked, "Father, do we really have to leave here?"

She had been living here for several years and had made good friends with many people living in the neighboring Cave Mansions. She had grown accustomed to the rhythm of life here and didn't want to move.

Chen An walked up to her and squatted down, placing his hands on her shoulders. He said with a heavy heart, "Father also doesn't want to move, but if we continue to stay here, we will all be in danger. This is the helplessness of life, something we cannot avoid."

"I understand, Father."

Although Chen Yuejian was reluctant, she could only say this.

Soon, Jiu Ji returned with Jiu Huayu.

Around the same time, the other wives and concubines in the Cave Mansion finished packing their belongings and were ready to go.

Seeing that everyone was prepared, Chen An didn't waste a moment. He immediately boarded the flying boat with his wives, daughter, and Jiu Huayu, and escaped from the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect.

Before leaving, he used amplification magic to address the entire sect, saying, "A powerful enemy from the Yin Domain is attacking, and I am unable to resist. Everyone, please evacuate as soon as possible!"

As soon as his voice fell, all the cultivators in the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect started to panic and fled with their families.

In the blink of an eye, the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect, which was once the ruler of the Mountain and Sea Domain, came to an end.

On the flying boat, Chen An looked down at the chaotic Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect and felt a deep sense of regret.

He had thought that reaching the pinnacle of the Mountain and Sea Domain would allow him to do as he pleased.

But he never expected that this sect, which had only been established for less than two years, would quickly fall apart. It was truly a cruel twist of fate.

"Buzz!"

"Buzz!"

"Buzz!"

"Buzz!"

Suddenly, four consecutive bursts of air explosions sounded.

Chen An, who was piloting the flying boat, suddenly noticed a barrier in front of him, blocking the path of the flying boat.

He looked around and found that three more barriers had appeared out of thin air in the other three directions, forming a cube that enveloped an area of a hundred miles around the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect, trapping all the sect's cultivators inside like a birdcage.

Earth Shattering Heavenly Star.

Deliberate Punch.

Teleportation Array.

Five Elements Escape Technique.

He tried various methods to escape from this prison, but all ended in failure.

The barrier in front of him was of a high-level formation, far beyond what a cultivator at the second level of Transcending Tribulation like him could break.

"Husband, what should we do?"

Song Huaying was panicking, feeling at a loss as she looked at the barrier ahead.

The other wives and concubines were also in the same state, with furrowed brows but remaining silent.

"Son-in-law, since we can't break this formation, let's quickly return to the ground and find a hidden place to hide," Jiu Huayu said, her willow-like eyebrows slightly furrowed.

Flying in the sky in a flying boat was too conspicuous.

Once they were attacked, there would be nowhere to hide.

Chen An also realized this problem and quickly piloted the flying boat to descend.

Just as the flying boat landed, the cultivators from the Yin Domain arrived.

Yin Qingyan, along with a group of extremely terrifying Yin Domain cultivators, hovered above the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect.

"Listen up, everyone below. Quickly return to the sect now. If you're still outside the sect after fifteen minutes, there will be no mercy!" Yin Qingyan's voice was icy and bone-chilling, reaching the ears of everyone trapped in the formation, causing their hearts to shudder.

In an instant, the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect cultivators who were trying to escape but were blocked by the formation hesitated for a moment before most of them quickly returned to the sect. The remaining few found a place to hide within the formation, hoping to escape the detection of the Yin Domain cultivators.

"Husband, what should we do?" Seeing that most people obediently returned to the sect, Song Huaying asked again with a worried expression on her face.

She lacked decisiveness and only knew to ask what to do. Chen An felt annoyed by this, but he didn't take it out on her.

The reason why his wives were so indecisive was closely related to his usual style. At home, he made most of the decisions, rarely allowing his wives to express their opinions. Over time, his wives became indecisive.

Chen An now realized this belatedly and decided to make a change in the future. But for now, the immediate concern was what to do next.

Should they return to the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect?

Or should they continue hiding with their family?

Chen An fell into contemplation over this.

After much thought, he finally made the decision to return to the sect, taking a gamble to seek refuge with the Yin Domain. After all, his wives' Aura Concealing Technique was not foolproof, and he couldn't bring them through the formation. If they continued to hide, they would eventually be discovered.

"Husband?" After a long time without a response from Chen An, Song Huaying couldn't help but ask in confusion.

Chen An replied, "Let's go back. Since the other party allowed the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect cultivators to return, they probably don't want to exterminate us, but rather want to dominate us."

"Son-in-law, what if the Yin Domain cultivators want to use the sect to raise gu worms?" Jiu Huayu worriedly asked.

She had suffered losses like this before when she was the village chief in Fox Village, leaving her with a psychological shadow regarding the gu cultivators in the Yin Domain.

Upon hearing Jiu Huayu's concerns, Long Biqiong, who was beside her, felt uneasy as well, recalling painful memories. Her maternal family's Dragon Palace was destroyed by the gu cultivators in the Yin Domain.

After listening to Jiu Huayu's worries, Chen An also fell into deep thought, considering the possibility.

Just as he was troubled, he suddenly remembered the Divine Ability he had recently obtained, "Insight into Heavenly Secrets."

This Divine Ability was precisely meant to be used in situations where he couldn't make a decision.

Thinking about it, Chen An immediately activated the Divine Ability to gain insight into the consequences of returning to the sect or not.

Soon, a prompt appeared before his eyes.

[Due to the existence of someone among the Yin Domain cultivators who possesses Saint Equipment capable of concealing heavenly secrets, it is impossible to gain insight into their secrets.]

Since the last time he sensed that his heavenly secrets were being observed, Yin Qingyan had taken precautions and implemented corresponding measures.

Saint Equipment capable of concealing heavenly secrets... Chen An furrowed his brows upon reading the contents of the prompt.

Since insight into heavenly secrets was not possible, the next step could only be taking a risk and opening the blind box.

After making the final decision, Chen An said to his wives and Jiu Huayu, "Whether we will be used to raise gu worms is a matter for the future. For now, it's better for us to return. Let's take it step by step."

Seeing that the head of the family had spoken, the others didn't say much and silently followed him back to the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect.

In any case, everything would have to be dealt with as it came.
