Chapter 253: We Make Some Plans!
The others simply glanced at Chu Xingchen once, then looked at Wang Ling, who had taken off his mask.
After all, what was the point of struggling with a fool? It was more entertaining to just watch the fool.
The scene was silent at this moment, yet it seemed filled with laughter and cheer.
Wang Ling pursed his lips lightly and looked at Ye Antao, who was standing to the side like an ostrich. Although he really wanted to open his mouth and tell her that this was like burying one's head in the sand, it would be better to just take off the mask and be treated as a fool along with him.
But... that was obviously impossible.
Wang Ling looked at Chu Xingchen. Where on earth did this fool come from?
"This Daoist friend, are you toying with me? Do you know who Yu Yang Daozi is?"
"I know. He is the personal disciple of the Sect Master of the Grand Dao Sect." Chu Xingchen said calmly, "I said he cannot defeat me, and he simply cannot defeat me."
Wang Ling's breathing became slightly more rapid.
Yu Yang Daozi was famous not only because he was the personal disciple of the Grand Dao Sect's Sect Master, but more so because this person was truly ridiculously strong.
Even within the Eighteen Immortal Gates, his combat power was among the absolute top tier in the same realm.
When he was in the Nascent Soul Realm, his Taiyi Divine Art alone suppressed so many chosen ones until they couldn't lift their heads.
Even Bai Xuanling, the Living Yama of the Central State, had given Yu Yang Daozi an extremely high evaluation—The Flawless Dao Son.
It was just that after Yu Yang Daozi entered the Soul Formation Realm, he rarely appeared again.
But without a doubt, Yu Yang Daozi was also considered—a long-renowned invincible expert of the same realm in the human world.
The same realm! Even if Yu Yang Daozi had just entered the early stage of Nascent Soul, as long as he didn't enter Soul Formation, Yu Yang Daozi was unbeatable.
Wang Ling could easily spit out a long string of his formidable battle records.
Nowadays, if a proper, ordinary Soul Formation expert went over, they probably wouldn't even have the chance to take a hit from the Taiyi Divine Art before being handled by Yu Yang Daozi.
Moreover, most of the people present were Nascent Soul cultivators.
How could this be? Are you perhaps in the Body Integration Realm?!
Wang Ling turned his gaze to Chen Muguang, who was beside Chu Xingchen:
"Daoist friend, do you have anything to say?"
Hearing this, a bitter smile appeared on Chen Muguang's face under his mask. However, he had no objection to Chu Xingchen's statement.
After all, Yu Yang Daozi's reputation was still far inferior to Bai Xuanling's.
This Brother Chu had been acknowledged by Bai Xuanling, after all.
If he said he could surely defeat True Lord Yu Yang, Chen Muguang might be suspicious. But if he said he could persist for one or two hours, Chen Muguang felt there should be no problem.
Bai Xuanling's acknowledgment was absolute proof—surely Bai Xuanling wouldn't have been blind enough to trust a fool to come here and make trouble for fun, right?
If that were the case, he, Chen Muguang, would accept it too.
Do not doubt those you employ, and do not employ those you doubt!
Facing Wang Ling's inquiry, Chen Muguang reached out and removed the mask from his face, speaking in a calm tone:
"Chen Muguang—of the Heaven Derivation Sect! That is my answer, Daoist friend Wang Ling."
Actions are always more powerful than words.
Seeing Chen Muguang being so decisive, everyone's gaze instantly shifted. They began to look at Chu Xingchen with suspicion—was this person telling the truth?
Wang Ling also hesitated for a moment, then cupped his hands and asked Chu Xingchen:
"Could this Daoist friend be... a Body Integration mighty expert?"
Chu Xingchen said calmly, "Soul Formation."
Wang Ling's gaze turned to Chen Muguang again—is this one also an invincible expert of the same rank from your Heaven Derivation Sect?!
Chen Muguang's expression was calm, and his tone didn't waver in the slightest:
"It's not you lot going up to fight True Lord Yu Yang. Would my brother talk nonsense about whether he can win or not? That would just mean getting a beating."
The words had barely settled.
Ye Antao took off her mask once again.
Since she had already lost all face, she didn't care about this little bit more.
Since it had come to this, she might as well try to trick others into taking off their masks too.
One had to admit, having someone take the lead made a real difference.
Immediately afterwards, the others also began to take off their masks one after another.
After all, what was said made a lot of sense. The Heaven Derivation Sect was also a sect that cared about its reputation; they wouldn't joke about this kind of thing.
Perhaps this fierce man with such radical words was a genuine fierce expert?
Chu Xingchen also gently removed his mask. "I said Yu Yang Daozi is wearing a sign selling his head, and that is exactly what he is doing."
Hearing this, Wang Ling felt it was a bit hard to maintain his composure. He dropped his casual attitude from just now and said with a serious expression:
"I think... we should make a detailed plan."
As Wang Ling's words fell, someone in the corner couldn't hold back a laugh.

Wuxuan View.
It was the third day since Yu Yang Daozi arrived at Wuxuan View. He had investigated many things. Although there were occasionally disgusting matters, they hadn't completely crossed the bottom line.
Today, he was preparing to see with his own eyes the person who had been Enshrined in the Incense Fire God Way.
Inside the great hall, Yu Yang Daozi frowned slightly as he looked at the God-Man who looked like a sculpture.
Yu Yang Daozi could almost feel no fluctuation of emotion or consciousness from the person in front of him. At this moment, the God-Man was just like a stone by the roadside.
If it weren't for the occasional fluctuations of his soul, this God-Man would be no different from a stone by the roadside.
Before coming, Yu Yang Daozi had naturally read the letters Wuxuan View had reported to the Grand Dao Sect.
Among them were reports regarding this matter.
However...
It was obvious that the letters had downplayed this matter as much as possible.
This was not simply a dying person being unable to bear the modified wish power at all, but rather that his soul could not bear something!
Yu Yang Daozi gently reached out to touch the octogenarian in front of him. After putting a protective layer over his own spiritual consciousness, he carefully probed into it.
Although the cultivation of the octogenarian in front of him was merely at the third layer of Qi Refining.
Very quickly, Yu Yang Daozi withdrew his hand and pondered with a slight frown.
There was absolutely a missing link here...
It shouldn't be this simple.
What on earth could be driving the Sect Master of Wuxuan View to push this plan forward at all costs, even in this situation?
Although he didn't want to guess others' intentions with the worst malice, often only the darkest thoughts could explain their behavior!
His thoughts were interrupted.
Yu Yang Daozi looked outside the hall and saw an old man wearing Daoist robes walking over slowly.
