Chapter 10: Xiao Yan, Is It You?

After the big man's shout, the several guards behind him immediately became alert. Their bodies were enveloped in spiritual energy, and they were all experts at the Divine Soul Realm. The strength of the big man who had just shouted had even reached the Heaven Merging Realm of the Three Days Realm, making him the strongest among the guards.

"Where is the Seven-Colored Swallowing Sky Python being held in the Illusory Moon Sect?" As the guards watched the black-robed figure with caution, a faint voice came from beneath the black robe.

"Thinking of taking the Seven-Colored Swallowing Sky Python is simply courting death. Brothers, take down this arrogant fool!" Hearing this, the leading big man immediately shouted in anger.

The Illusory Moon Sect had already issued an order to strengthen defenses in recent days, especially to guard against those who had designs on the Seven-Colored Swallowing Sky Python. Since the black-robed figure had mentioned the Seven-Colored Swallowing Sky Python upon arrival, the leading big man naturally chose to act directly.

"Yes!"

The several guards behind the big man immediately responded in unison. Spiritual energy instantly surged from their bodies, and they raised their long spears to stab at the black-robed figure.

However, before these guards who had launched the attack could touch the black-robed figure, the next moment—

Puff!

Puff!

Two strange puffing sounds suddenly echoed in the darkness.

At this moment, the big man immediately followed the sound. When he turned around and saw the two guards behind him suddenly turn to ashes, his pupils couldn't help but constrict sharply.

The other guards also had looks of shock on their faces. Just now, their two companions had mysteriously turned to ashes right before their eyes, and such a strange death was truly terrifying.

The scene instantly fell into a deathly silence. A cold wind howled from the canyon, making even the big man, who was at the Heaven Merging Realm, feel a sense of dread. Who was this black-robed figure, and why was he so powerful, using some strange technique?

"I'll ask again, where is the Seven-Colored Swallowing Sky Python being held in the Illusory Moon Sect?" The faint voice sounded again from beneath the black robe, breaking the suffocating silence. The big man and the others immediately looked back at the black-robed figure not far ahead.

However, at this moment, they no longer had the confidence they had before, and their eyes clearly showed a sense of dread, clearly linking the strange deaths to the sudden appearance of the black-robed figure.

"May I ask who you are? If you're here to bid on the Seven-Colored Swallowing Sky Python, our sect leader said to come back in three days." The big man's eyes flickered, not daring to offend the black-robed figure anymore. He then spoke in a very respectful tone.

He even mentioned their sect leader, hoping to suppress the black-robed figure, as their sect leader was a genuine Fifth Rank Supreme, and he believed the black-robed figure wouldn't dare to act rashly.

Puff! Puff!

Again, two strange puffing sounds suddenly echoed in his ears. Hearing these strange sounds, the big man couldn't help but tremble, cautiously turning his head. Indeed, two more guards had instantly turned to ashes.

"Quickly go and inform the sect leader that someone has broken into the Illusory Moon Sect and wants to seize the Seven-Colored Swallowing Sky Python!" The big man, being an experienced person, knew that the black-robed figure was likely after the Seven-Colored Swallowing Sky Python, and that this person's strength was extremely terrifying. With their few people, they were no match for the black-robed figure. He immediately shouted at the three remaining guards.

Puff! Puff! Puff!

However, the next moment, three more terrifying puffing sounds echoed. In his eyes filled with shock, the bodies of the three guards quietly turned to ashes.

Seeing this, the big man's pupils constricted, his whole body trembling, and he couldn't help but swallow hard. He then slowly turned around, looking at the black-robed figure in the darkness with fear.

"Don't make me ask a third time."

It was still that faint voice, but this time it carried a hint of icy killing intent, making the big man immediately sense the taste of death. He knew that if he said another irrelevant word, he would also be killed by the black-robed figure using a strange method.

"Spare my life! I'll tell you, the Seven-Colored Swallowing Sky Python is currently being held in the Illusory Moon Hall, guarded day and night by the Third Elder and the Fourth Elder, two Supreme experts." The big man immediately said honestly, his voice trembling.

"What level are these two Supremes?" Xiao Yan's eyes glinted coldly, his voice unusually calm.

"The Third Elder is a Second Rank Supreme, and the Fourth Elder is a First Rank Supreme." Sensing the cold light in Xiao Yan's eyes, the big man immediately blurted out, afraid that if he delayed, he would be killed.

"First Rank Supreme and Second Rank Supreme." Xiao Yan's eyes narrowed, and a cold smile of killing intent appeared at the corner of his mouth. Since that was the case, he would start with these two.

"Take me to the Illusory Moon Hall. If you try any tricks, you should know what will happen to you next!" Xiao Yan said in a cold voice.

"Go!" Without wasting any more time, Xiao Yan directly picked up the big man with his right hand and shot toward the narrow entrance of the canyon.

Illusory Moon Hall.

This was an extremely large hall within the Illusory Moon Sect. Even in the darkness, the massive black shadow still exuded a grand and imposing aura, which did not diminish in the slightest due to the darkness.

At the center of the grand hall, there was a massive cage, about several dozen feet in size, made from hundreds of mystic ice pillars. The cage was engraved with complex runes, constantly emitting a bone-chilling cold aura. This cold aura was enough to instantly freeze a Heaven Merging Realm expert.

The Heaven Merging Realm was the second realm of the Three Days Realm, with its power being even stronger than the Heaven Merging Realm!

However, what caught the most attention was the mystic ice cage, where a huge python with a seven-colored body was coiled, looking extremely alluring. It was clearly Cai Lin.

At this moment, her aura was extremely weak, and the seven-colored light on her body was very dim. Her body was covered with numerous wounds, some of which had penetrated deep into the flesh, with fresh blood dripping. The huge python body was quietly lying in the cage, and her seven-colored snake eyes blinked, filled with a hint of sorrow.

Next to the mystic ice cage, two middle-aged men were seated. The man on the left was tall, while the man on the right was short.

Both of them emitted a strong spiritual energy fluctuation, the aura of Supreme experts. These two were the Third Elder and the Fourth Elder mentioned by the big man earlier.

"Brother Three, why doesn't this woman transform into human form? Playing with such a beauty would surely be a heavenly experience!" At this moment, the short man looked at the cage with a lecherous smile.

He had seen Cai Lin's appearance that day, and it was truly alluring. Any man would find it hard to control the heat within him.

The tall man also looked at the cage and sighed, "Auctioning off such a beauty is truly a pity. This Seven-Colored Swallowing Sky Python, for some reason, refuses to give up her chastity, otherwise, she wouldn't have ended up like this."

As soon as the tall man's words fell, the huge snake body in the cage suddenly wriggled, and the seven-colored light surged. The huge snake body continuously shrank, eventually transforming into a stunningly beautiful woman, whose appearance could make the heavens and earth lose their color.

However, the transformed Cai Lin had a pale face, and her body was covered with wounds, with fresh blood dripping. She slowly got up from the ground, her long eyelashes trembling slightly, and her alluring eyes tightly fixed on the outside of the Illusory Moon Hall. She sensed a familiar aura and had tears welling up in her eyes: "Xiao Yan, is it you?"
