Chapter 721
After thinking for a moment, Yan Kun slowly raised his head and said solemnly:
"Left Protector, I'll trouble you to keep an eye on him here. I'll go get the Sect Master. Zhou Chen's condition is extremely critical and we can't afford any more delay. I just hope the Sect Master can come as soon as possible and perform a life-saving technique to save his life."
Luo Kang nodded slightly, his expression equally serious, and said:
"Don't worry, I'm here to guard this place, so nothing will go wrong. Just go quickly."
After he finished speaking, spiritual energy surged around Yan Kun's body, and with a flash of light, he disappeared in the hall in an instant.
In this silent yet tense hall, the left protector Luo Kang stood quietly. His eyes seemed calm, but his heart was in turmoil.
He looked at Zhou Chen, who was lying on the ground and whose cultivation was still declining, frowned slightly and thought to himself:
Although Zhou Chen is a bit arrogant on weekdays, his talent and strength are indeed outstanding. He is the rising star of the future of our Li Ren Sect. But now he has suffered such a misfortune. If anything happens to him, it will undoubtedly be a huge loss for our sect.
But what exactly caused this strange thing?
Did he provoke some powerful and hidden enemy outside, or did he accidentally trigger some ancient and evil prohibition?
At this time, Yan Kun was moving quickly through the sect's numerous restrictions and corridors like a stream of light, not daring to stop for a moment, and finally arrived at the holy place where the sect master was in seclusion - the Zixiao Palace on the top of Lingxiao Peak.
Outside the Zixiao Palace, spiritual mist was swirling and auspicious light was faintly visible, exuding an extraordinary and sacred aura.
Yan Kun stopped respectfully outside the hall, straightened his clothes, took a deep breath, then knelt on one knee, clasped his fists and saluted, his voice filled with a hint of urgency and awe:
"Right Guardian Yan Kun requests to see the Sect Master. I have an extremely urgent matter to report!"
As soon as the words fell, a cold and ethereal voice seemed to come from the sky:
"Come in."
Yan Kun slowly stood up, gently pushed open the door of the hall that was emitting a faint light, and stepped into the hall.
There was a soft light in the hall, and a woman was sitting on a lotus platform. She was wearing a gorgeous purple dress with exquisite spiritual patterns embroidered on the hem. The dress flashed with strange light as the spiritual power fluctuated slightly.
Her face was like a snow lotus blooming on the top of an ice peak, stunningly beautiful, with skin whiter than snow. Her eyes were like deep star lakes, revealing endless wisdom and majesty. Her long black hair fell like a waterfall, emitting a faint halo behind her.
Yan Kun didn't dare to look directly at the Sect Master for too long, and quickly lowered his head and saluted again:
"Master, I've come here because our sect is facing a major crisis. For unknown reasons, our core disciple, Zhou Chen, has experienced a sudden and uncontrollable decline in cultivation, plummeting from the peak of the Mysterious God Realm to the sixth level, and is still declining. Neither I nor Left Protector Luo Kang can pinpoint the cause. We hope Master will assist and save Zhou Chen."
The clan leader raised her head slightly. Her beautiful face was calm, yet exuded a majesty that no one dared to disobey. She spoke softly:
"How could such a thing happen? Has Zhou Chen been out recently? Has he come into contact with any suspicious people or objects?"
Although the sound was not loud, it echoed in Yan Kun's ears like a huge bell, shaking his soul slightly.
Yan Kun's heart trembled, and he quickly reported to the Sect Master the details of Zhou Chen's trip to deal with the Lu family and his return:
"Zhou Chen previously went to deal with the dispute between the Lu and Zhao families, and he developed these symptoms after returning. However, it seems nothing particularly unusual occurred during that time. He only had a minor conflict with Han Changkong during the confrontation with the Lu family. However, Han Changkong was only at the late stage of Divine Man cultivation, and according to common sense, it was impossible for him to cause such harm to Zhou Chen."
After hearing this, the clan leader frowned slightly, thought for a moment and said:
