The Holy Maiden Uncovers My Coffin When I Just Become An Emperor's Corpse-Chapter 259 Heavenly Tribulation is Coming!

*They were against the person, not the matter!*

*Yang Yan was their enemy, an adversary!*

*Saving the successor disciples of the major Sects would not change that status.*

"When you come out, I’ll kill you,

and I’ll leave a whole corpse for you, erect a tombstone.

Consider it thanks for saving the successor disciples within my Sect!" Cangjian thought darkly.

The Tianji Sect Master, the Tianling Sect Master, the Baihe Sect Master, and the other Sect Masters all thought the same.

*Faced with the benefactor of a life-saving grace, and an enemy who dared to hold successor disciples hostage to threaten them, potentially endangering each Sect in the future,*

*they all knew what choice to make!*

The Elders of each Sect took out their keys and opened the array.

Light flickered as Yang Yan, Sheng Chuqing, Feng Xue, Yun He, Shangguan Yunlian, and Zhan Lingtian exited the Ninth Restricted Area, standing within the array barrier.

Upon their emergence, the gazes of the Sect Masters and Elders became even sharper.

*They wished they could act immediately, slay Yang Yan,*

*and snatch back the successor disciples held hostage by him.*

*However, that was just a thought. Everyone present knew Yang Yan’s strength.*

*To snatch back the successor disciples from him was utterly delusional!*

"Step back a bit!" Yang Yan commanded the Sect Masters nearby.

The Sect Masters, high and mighty, had never been ordered by a junior.

But now, in front of Yang Yan, they had no choice but to obey his command.

One by one, they stepped back, distancing themselves from the array.

"*Such arrogance now will make your death more miserable later!*" the Tianji Sect Master thought coldly.

After they moved away, only a few Elders who opened the array remained around Yang Yan!

"Well, you continue,"

Yang Yan exited the array’s range, standing by the side with Yun He, Feng Xue, Zhan Lingtian, and Sheng Chuqing.

This ensured that the successor disciples emerging from the Ninth Restricted Area could not escape easily.

It also prevented the Sect Masters opposite from suddenly making a move to seize the successor disciples who had come out.

The Elders who opened the array continued to exert their power on it.

Yang Yan stood calmly by the side, listening to Elder Yujian’s telepathic report.

"Master!" Elder Yujian called respectfully. "I heard their schemes clearly. I am reporting them to you now!"

*No one among the Sect Masters present expected*.

*that there was a traitor among them!*

Elder Yujian quickly relayed all the plots and events that had transpired among the Sect Masters to Yang Yan.

"Master, what do you plan to do?" After finishing the sects’ plans, Elder Yujian inquired.

"I will definitely take the treasure!"

"Yes, the treasure must be taken, but it’s best to exchange it for a new batch that hasn’t been tampered with!" Elder Yujian advised.

"I’m aware of that, but I also need to see what treasures they offer me,

if the treasures are valuable, then there’s no need to exchange them!" Yang Yan said wistfully.

*He could guess that since the sects were willing to offer treasures, while also tampering with them, they wanted Yang Yan to fall for their trap.*

*The treasures offered would not be too shabby, they might even be very good.*

*There’s no reason for him to refuse such treasures!*

"But what if those treasures are dangerous to you?" Elder Yujian said worriedly.

*She believed life was more important!*

"No matter; I am not concerned!"

*There were many who pursued him; what did these sect people matter?*

*Could they compare to the Yaochi Holy Land? The Zhengdao Buddhist Sect? The Hao Ran Zheng Qi Sect?*

*None could compare!*

*So what was there to fear!*

"Yes, Master indeed need not fear; Master is very powerful," Elder Yujian replied.

*Since Yang Yan had made the decision, he must have had his reasons, she didn’t need to say more.*

*Elder Yujian knew she needed to comply with Yang Yan.*

*And to think of a good plan to help Yang Yan evade pursuit in a short time.*

"Master, after obtaining the treasures, in the short term, do not use them.

Because if those treasures are kept in the storage bag,

even if they’ve been tampered with, it’s not easy to detect or track them.

Once you’re completely safe, then find a way to remove any tampering." Elder Yujian advised.

"Alright!"

"Oh yes, Master, after you obtain the treasures,

do not hand over all the successor disciples directly; keep a few as hostages.

If possible, ask them for a treasure that can help you leave.

Then head outside the Billions of Mountains; do not venture deeper into them!

The danger there is ten times greater than dealing with these Sect Masters!" Elder Yujian added.

"Leaving with hostages is impossible.

Because my Heavenly Tribulation is imminent; anyone staying with me will only meet their death.

In a moment, both you and Sheng Chuqing, and Feng Xue, must also leave quickly. Do not delay!

If not, you will also die here!"

*Yang Yan sensed the changes above the sky as soon as he came out.*

*If they delayed any longer, none of them could escape.*

"Alright, Master, I understand.

Please take care of yourself and overcome the Heavenly Tribulation." Elder Yujian knew Yang Yan wouldn’t lie to her.

*If he said she would surely die if she stayed, then she would certainly die.*

*"Master cares so much for me!" She felt very happy in her heart.*

*Although Yang Yan only offered her a warning, she felt exceptionally touched in her heart.*

*She believed this was Yang Yan’s care for her!*

*And it deepened her love for Yang Yan!*

This was the terrifying aspect of the Primordial Yang Heaven-reaching Divine Skill!

"Master, after your Heavenly Tribulation, quickly escape the Billions of Mountains.

The Dragon King is soon to celebrate a grand occasion, and people from the Central Continent will come too.

If they knew you would undergo a Heavenly Tribulation, it might be detrimental to you!" Elder Yujian suddenly thought of the attention a Heavenly Tribulation might attract and immediately warned.

Yang Yan’s eyes flickered.

"The Dragon King’s grand occasion? And what’s the deal with the Central Continent?"

Elder Yujian explained this matter to Yang Yan.

"Within the Billions of Mountains, as known to the outside world, there are fifteen demon clan experts.

Among them, the most arrogant and domineering is the Black Feathered Jiao Dragon King!

It belongs to the Jiao Long Clan, possessing True Dragon Blood deep in its veins!

It is rumored that it was born in the North Sea, and due to unknown circumstances, fled from the North Sea to here, occupying a part of the Billions of Mountains.

Becoming one of its overlords!

Every year it celebrates its longevity, and it has been at least a thousand years by now.

By then, many demon clans will come to celebrate it!

Its strength is unfathomable.

It could very well have reached the peak stage of the king realm, just a step away from the Saint Realm!"

"So, the dragon in the dragon-slaying ceremony is it, then?

The people from the Central Continent intend to slay it?" Yang Yan asked.

"Yes, however, slaying it might not be realistic.

Its terror is not as simple as the outside world speculates.

I believe the people from the Central Continent are also aware!

In my view, they merely come for the Jiao Long Blood within it, containing the True Dragon Bloodline."
