Chapter 25

In this vast world, the number of Nascent Soul cultivators is extremely rare. For a sect like the Luofu Sect, which boasts of being the foremost sect in the present era, even among its several thousand disciples, there are only five or six Nascent Soul cultivators. But now, the cultivators who escaped in terror were shouting that more than ten Nascent Soul cultivators had gathered outside the small cave abode.

Moreover, these ten or so Nascent Soul cultivators all attacked simultaneously, unleashing a torrent of attacks that crashed towards the small cave abode.

For a moment, thunder rumbled and lightning flashed. The ground veins churned like a dragon awakened, shaking the entire small cave abode with dust and debris, threatening to collapse.

Just after the first strike, a layer of hazy green light rose outside the small cave abode. Numerous profound patterns shimmered and flowed on it, as if the stars in the sky were turning, blocking all the incoming attacks outside the small cave abode.

「This is...」 Ye Xuan's pupils constricted, 「A formation.」

Unexpectedly, such a formidable formation had been set up outside the small cave abode, capable of withstanding attacks from several Nascent Soul cultivators. The few transmigrators who had barely escaped into the cave abode breathed a sigh of relief. 「It's said that this small cave abode belongs to Mr. He. Perhaps this formation was set up by him as well.」

At this time, Liu Bai had rushed to Sun Xiuxiu's side and anxiously administered pills to her. 「Junior Sister, what on earth happened?」

Surrounding cultivators also turned their attention to her. Sun Xiuxiu, having caught her breath, wiped the blood from her face and said, 「Before, you asked me to go find Uncle Min. I hadn't gone far when several escape lights flew towards me. Those cultivators didn't say a word and immediately attacked us.」

By 「us」, she meant the transmigrators who had rushed from all directions to attend the gathering. Those unlucky transmigrators had barely reacted before falling one after another. According to Sun Xiuxiu, aside from Nascent Soul cultivators, there were dozens of Golden Core cultivators outside, along with several Foundation Establishment and Qi Refining cultivators. Among them were scattered cultivators and many familiar faces.

「I saw seniors from the Yunxiao Sect, seniors from the Guiyuan Sect,」 Sun Xiuxiu's gaze turned to Ye Xuan, 「And there were quite a few seniors from the Luofu Sect as well...」

Ye Xuan's mind had already been vaguely suspecting something, and hearing Sun Xiuxiu's words, her heart sank. It was becoming clear: 「Everyone, I think... we are being besieged,」 she looked up, her gaze resolute, 「We are being besieged by the native inhabitants of this world.」

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was immediately in an uproar.

Ye Xuan did not say more and continued to piece together the clues from before. The night before, Li Che had spied on her room, and despite her attempts to deduce the reason, she could not figure it out. Initially suspecting that Li Che was sent by Qiong Hua, she now realized it must be related to today's siege of the transmigrators.

Gu Yinsheng had said that Li Che was a native inhabitant of this world, which could not be mistaken. And what could Li Che be monitoring about Ye Xuan? The most likely reason was her identity—the transmigrator identity.

Qiong Hua had long known that the small cave abode was to be besieged, which is why she invited Ye Xuan to the gathering and did not allow her to leave. Qiong Hua revealed Ye Xuan's identity to Zhao Mao, and the reason was simple: she wanted to expose Ye Xuan, making her an enemy of the native inhabitants of this world.
