542 Tang Clan's Cave
While they were all busy with the competition, Hua Yue, who lived in the small lake, was curious about its depths, especially since her demon body was huge, but she couldn't feel the bottom of the lake.
Without thinking, Hua Yue dives into the lake, but she doesn't expect the small lake to be deep. "Could it be that this lake is a man-made lake?"
Unexpectedly, after reaching the bottom of the lake, Hua Yue discovered an underwater tunnel and decided to explore it. However, as she entered, many unusual lamps lit up on both sides of the tunnel's walls. "Apparently, this tunnel is connected to the bottom of our residence, and I'm curious to know what exactly is at the end of this tunnel. Moreover, these lamps are very weird, and their shape is futuristic compared to this planet's lamps."
After swimming for a while, Hua Yue finally arrived at the end of the tunnel and arrived at a relatively large cave. She immediately returned to her human form and walked along it, and she soon arrived in front of a large iron gate. She then read the nameplate stuck to the side of the gate. "Tang Clan? So they are the owners of this cave?"
"I didn't expect you to discover this place earlier than Ling Yun."
Hua Yue was startled by the woman's voice, and she immediately turned around. "Who are you? How did you get in here?"
"My name is Tang Wu." She answered as she approached the iron gate and pressed her hand on it. "Behind this gate is a place built by my ancestor, and not everyone can enter except for me and the members of the Tang Clan."
Hua Yue raised her eyebrows upon hearing that. "Tang Wu? So you are Aunt Mingxia's Master?"
"Yes." Tang Wu nodded to her.
"What kind of place was built by your ancestor behind this iron gate? And what does this place have to do with Yun?" Hua Yue, with a look full of curiosity, asked her.
Tang Wu turned to her. "You don't need to be so curious, and you can see inside for yourself after Ling Yun opens this gate. However, I can ensure that everything inside will be of great use to all of you, so you can tell him about this place later."
Hua Yue nodded to her. "All right, I will contact Ling Yun, but he might not come to this place after the competition ends."
"I know." Tang Wu then turned to look at the iron gate again. 'Ancestor, it seems that your prophecies have different results, it was not Ling Yun who found this place but his woman, and this little girl found it much faster than you expected.'

Meanwhile, Su Xin seemed utterly overwhelmed by Nalan Qing's ferocious attacks, especially since she was far more experienced than her. Her body was even covered with many injuries, and some parts of her dress were torn.
"You better surrender, or I'll kill you." Nalan Qing coldly said as she increased the intensity of her attacks.
'Tch!' Su Xin gritted her teeth at Nalan Qing's threat, but she still didn't want to give up, for she still had to face a strong enemy in the future. 'Apparently, I can only use that technique, or else I will definitely lose to her.'
Su Xin glanced at her Master for a moment to seek her approval, and Yun Zhu nodded at her. Afterward, she channeled her Qi, causing her body to be enveloped by a strange aura, and immediately rushed toward Nalan Qing.
*Badump*
Nalan Qing's mind went blank once the aura affected her, and she stopped attacking Su Xin.
Seeing the opportunity, Su Xin immediately attacked Nalan Qing without hesitation, and her successive attacks caused her to be pushed back; even her previously clean dress was starting to become tattered.
"Gah!" Nalan Qing returned to her senses after she felt the pain in her body, but Su Xin once again used her technique on her, which caused her mind to go blank again.
'No matter how strong you are, you won't be able to withstand the effects of my technique, for my technique will affect your mind and subconscious.' For quite some time, Su Xin continued to attack her, and her attacks became faster and faster every second that passed, causing Nalan Qing to be completely unable to fight back against her.
The onlookers stared at Nalan Qing in complete confusion. At first, she had the upper hand against Sun Xin, and she could even continue pushing her to the point of helplessness.
But now, Nalan Qing had become helpless before Su Xin, and she repeatedly looked resigned to her attacks.
"What happened to Fairy Nalan? Why is her behavior so strange?"
"I don't know; Su Xin probably used some strange techniques on her."
"That's true! After all, Su Xin is a disciple of the Hundred Flower Sect, and the women of that sect are really evil."
"Tch! Madam Feng and the others shouldn't allow that sect to participate in this competition."
"I agree with that! Previously, Luo Yan used a strange pill on Chen Rong, and Su Xin also cheated Fairy Nalan."
Suddenly, the people who were talking about Su Xin and the sect broke out in cold sweat, and they found it hard to breathe, for a strong aura pressed against them.

Lu Wan'er, who was listening to their conversation, was enraged by that, so she used her aura to teach them a lesson. However, she was shocked when another aura assaulted her, causing her stumbling backward, and blood dripped from the corner of her lips.
"What happened, Sister Wane'r?" Yun Zhu asked as she supported Lu Wan'er.
"Nothing." Lu Wan'er replied with a shake of her head, but she immediately turned to face Ling Yun, who smiled faintly at her. 'That bastard! How dare he attack me in secret!'
'Hahaha!' Lu Wan'er was startled by the sound of Ling Yun's laughter in her mind, and her face darkened at his following words. 'I didn't expect a strong cultivator like you to be so weak-minded and cowardly; you even tried to suppress cultivators who were far weaker than you.'
'You-'
'You what?' Ling Yun interrupted Lu Wan'er as he smirked. 'You can have fun for now, but you'll definitely regret it later once you fall into my hands. Anyway, you don't need to think of a way to escape, for you won't be able to escape from my clutches.'
Lu Wan'er frowned at Ling Yun's words, and she had a bad feeling, so she immediately checked her storage ring. However, she was shocked when she couldn't find her escape device and the returning jade. 'What the hell? How could he hijack my storage ring?' "Yun Zhu! Quickly check your storage ring, are your escape device and your returning jade are still there?"
"Hmm?" Yun Zhu felt confused by her words, but she immediately followed her orders, and she was also shocked to find that her escape device and the returning jade had also disappeared. "Sister Wan'er! Both of mine have gone!"
Lu Wan'er took a deep breath and glared at Ling Yun, but he ignored her and was more engrossed in talking with his women.
"What exactly happened, Sister Wan'er?" Yun Zhu asked her.
"We better leave this place right now; that bastard Ling Yun hijacked our storage ring and stole both of them, so we won't be able to escape anymore." Lu Wan'er replied with a look full of anger.
Yun Zhu was shocked upon hearing that, and she asked in a slightly louder voice. "What? How is that possible? He didn't even come close to us."
"I don't know how he managed to do it, but we had better leave this place right now, or we will fall into their hands."
"Yes."
However, just as they were about to turn around, Ling Xi immediately appeared above them and restricted their movements, causing the two women to stiffen.
'Shit!' The two women cursed in their hearts after feeling that, and both of them struggled to break free from Ling Xi's restriction, but their efforts were naturally in vain.
Ling Xi chuckled, looking at them, and she appeared to the two women. "Haha! Did you think I would let the two of you escape from this place?"
'Who is this little girl? She is even stronger than the ancestors.' Lu Wan'er and Yun Zhu muttered in their hearts in shock, but they could only resign themselves to their fate after they failed to break Ling Xi's restrictions on them.
"You'd better wait here until the competition ends." Ling Xi said to them again with a faint smile. "But you guys don't worry, I won't let them capture you, for you two are useful for my husband."
After Ling Xi disappeared from sight, they wondered in their hearts. 'Husband? Could she be one of Ling Yun's wives?'
However, they were startled by a massive explosion, and Nalan Qing already collapsed on the ground; even her entire body was covered in blood, especially after Su Xin attacked her mercilessly for quite some times.
Seeing that, Xuanyuan Xue'er immediately stopped the match and announced the winner. "The winner is Su Xin!"
Meanwhile, in the third arena, the battle between Situ Luan and Yu Mei was intense, especially since their strengths didn't differ too much.
Situ Luan muttered. 'Sigh, I must use that technique, or I'll never be able to defeat Yu Mei.'
