Chapter 2390
June slowly rose, her fingertips shrouded in faint moonlight patterns. She raised her hand and patted Chen Xuan's shoulder, her tone solemn and earnest:
"After this battle, even if they had a hundred times the courage, they wouldn't dare to act recklessly in Wujiang City. But Chen Xuan, you must remember this: once we truly enter the battlefield, I will need to be in charge of the central command, coordinating the entire battlefront, and I won't have time to spare to look after you."
He paused, then spoke with a resounding emphasis, each word carrying a chilling warning:
"In other words, if the Immortal Ancient Land or the Supreme Holy Land want to harm you, they will most likely take advantage of the chaos of the battle to secretly kill you—such despicable acts of killing each other within one's own race are commonplace in past battles of destiny."
"What?!" Dao Yi suddenly stood up, his body surging with Daoist energy, his face filled with disbelief. "They actually dare to disregard the survival of civilization and scheme against each other on the battlefield?"
"Master, in such a deadly battle concerning the fate of civilization, don't the many powerful beings of the Immortal Ancient have any way to restrain it?" Qingxia raised her eyes to look at Liuyue, her brows furrowed. "Why not have all the participating cultivators swear a strict oath to the Heavenly Dao to restrain such evil deeds?"
Upon hearing this, June gave a wry smile, a hint of helplessness etched on her brow:
"It seems you are ultimately completely ignorant of the rules of the 'Battlegrounds'."
He didn't disassemble it further, but instead took out a booklet. The booklet was made of purple-gold, with four ancient immortal characters engraved on its surface, and thick Dao patterns flowing around it.
"According to regulations, this book, 'Rules of War,' will only be distributed to the commanders of each battle formation when they are close to the border of the Imperial Pass. You will understand the reason for this once you return to your posts."
"Thank you, senior brother!" Dao Yi, Lu Xueqi and the others bowed in unison and respectfully accepted the booklet.
Chen Xuan accepted the purple-gold book with both hands. The moment his fingertips touched the book, he felt a powerful force of rules. He stared at the four words "Rules of Combat" on the cover and said solemnly, "Thank you for your guidance, Senior Brother."
"In that case, let's part ways here." June raised her hand and gently ruffled Zixia's hair, her voice mild. "Once the great battle is over, you can come back to Mingyue Palace with me to cultivate."
Zixia and Qingxia bowed deeply, their eyes filled with reluctance and gratitude—though their time with their master was brief, the genuine care from their Daoist elder had already been imprinted in their hearts, deeply moving them. "Respectfully bidding farewell to Master!"
June turned to Chen Xuan and the other four, her smile gentle: "Junior brothers and sisters, I will wait until after the battle to personally escort you back to the sect and witness your initiation ceremony."
Chen Xuan and the other four responded in unison, bowing respectfully: "We will remember our senior brother's teachings!"
"Hahaha..." June laughed loudly, raised his hand and waved. Baihe, Qinglian and Bailian instantly turned into three golden rays of light and disappeared with him; he himself turned into countless moonlight-like points of light, gradually merging into the void and disappearing without a trace in an instant.
After June and his disciple left, all eyes in the private room were on Chen Xuan.
His aura was restrained yet exuded a calm and dominant presence, naturally making him the backbone of the group.
After a moment's thought, Chen Xuan made a hand seal, and a light blue spatial light screen enveloped everyone. He said in a deep voice, "You all go first and wait in my Northern Underworld Immortal Mansion. I will go and bring Xuan Yi and the others together. We will study the law book left by our senior brother later."
"Alright!" Everyone nodded in unison, and their figures flashed with the light screen, and they were teleported to the backyard of the Golden Summit of Tangwu Mountain in the inner world of the Immortal Mansion.
A moment later, Chen Xuan appeared on the eighth floor of Louwailou.
The eighth floor was still noisy. Xuan Yi, Fu Sheng, Tian Mang and others were around the table, feasting heartily in revenge. The table was littered with delicacies, and the aroma of wine mixed with spiritual energy filled the air.
Chen Xuan stepped forward, said no more, and conjured a spatial mark at his fingertips, which swept more than ten people into the Immortal Mansion. He then hurriedly found Zi Chen and Jue Wuqing, bowed to them, and turned into a stream of light, leaving Louwailou.
Previously, in June, they had crushed the two holy land Dao Lords with absolute strength. At this moment, Jue Wuqing and Zi Chen had no concerns about Chen Xuan and the others acting alone. They only told him to "act cautiously" before letting him leave.
