Chapter 877

Four Revered Individuals

Arriving in tow with Zhuge Xiaosheng, one of the most respected people at the time, was Lu Deyi and Mu Chenghong, who had reached Body Synthesis Realm and no longer had a melancholic air about him, brimming with confidence instead. They were two of the few exceptions to prejudice against formation casters as Greater Heaven Stage formation casters had plenty of formation foundations to give an opponent trouble.

The real surprise was Mu Hao accompanied Lu Deyi, albeit having his appearance hidden behind a disguise formation – courtesy of Zhuge Xiaosheng. Zhuge Xiaosheng hid Mu Hao’s appearance as he knew about the ongoing witch hunt, turning Mu Hao into a susceptible target for kidnappings and the sort.

A crowd gathered to get a glimpse at the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see four greats in one place.

“Welcome, Patriarch Zhuge,” voiced the Ascension Realm Daoist Yuan De, surprising many others besides just Mu Yu.

“Elder Yuan De, Alchemist Yao, it is my honour to finally meet you. I am flattered you two would come to welcome me,” replied Zhuge Xiaosheng.

“The honour is all ours. You are now our world’s hope. Unfortunately, Yun Dan was held up and could not personally come to welcome you. This old one will be relying on you to protect him, hahaha.”

“Please allow me to introduce my fellows. This is Greater Heaven Caster Lu Deyi. These two are our sect’s disciples. Greet Daoist Yuan De and Alchemist Yao.”

“It is an honour to meet you, Elder Yuan De, Alchemist Yao,” the three greeted.

“It is our pleasure to fight alongside you,” replied Daoist Yuan De.

“At least he’s dressed more fittingly this time,” Mu Yu commented in reference to Daoist Yuan De, remembering some nostalgic moments between the two of them. “Patriarch Zhuge… I still haven’t figured out what I’m meant to be wary of.”

Zhuge Xiaosheng and Daoist Yuan De flew up to Sword Shadow Dust Gale’s statue on the city walls.

Zhuge Xiaosheng was not as well-versed with natural energy as Mu Yu was. Nevertheless, he knew enough to repair the city’s barrier. Moreover, the survivors of Eastern Desert City explained to him how the formation was not maintained well enough, making it easy for the elemental demons to rattle everyone each time they attacked.

Cultivators at the bottom of the wall watched in anticipation.

Upon activating the barrier, the transparent barrier shrouded Pill City. Zhuge Xiaosheng performed hand seals, merging formation lines into the barrier. When the natural energy spread to the cultivators around, turning them into the barrier’s formation foundations, Mu Yu decided to eject it from him. Although Mu Yu did not believe Zhuge Xiaosheng would harm him, he was convinced Daoist Chu Buqu had reasons for sending the warning.

As Zhuge Xiaosheng inspected the formation, he taught Mu Hao and Mu Chenghong about the formation, how to operate it as well as how to maintain it – the reason he brought the two along.

“Elder Yuan De, since you are an Ascension Realm adept, could you do the honour of testing it?” requested Zhuge Xiaosheng, holding his hands in a propitious salute.

As far as Zhuge Xiaosheng was aware, Elder Yuan De was the only Ascension Realm cultivator in the city. Rather than leave it up to chance, why not have an Ascension Realm cultivator test out the barrier’s defence?

Daoist Yuan De, who was there for that very reason, smiled. “Sure.”

“Please hit it with everything you have, Elder Yuan De.”

“Understood.”

Daoist Yuan De soared high above the city and expanded the size of his walking stick to sledge the barrier. The impact of the blow startled the audience even though they were ready for a big blow. Had it not been for the formation, the city would have been devastated, yet the formation cancelled the attack completely, much to the delight of everyone watching.

“Mu Yu, Zhuge Xiaosheng is doing his job properly, isn’t he?” queried Xiaoshuai, having heard of what Mu Yu was cautioned against.

“It appears so up until now,” Mu Yu answered, meticulously paying attention to the barrier.

“He must’ve lied. I’ll lay him out the next time I see him!”

“He’s an elder hiding his true identity.” Mu Yu’s eyes made their way to the city doors, where he spotted three shifty individuals trying to sneak out. “It’s the three of them.”

Mu Yu grabbed Xiaoshuai, weaving through the crowd as fast as he could to reach the door.

Zhuge Xiaosheng furrowed his brows upon sensing a familiar qi disappear at the city doors, therefore turning around to Mu Hao. Zhuge Xiaosheng brushed it off as a mistake and then continued conferring with Daoist Yuan De.
