Chapter 204 - Appearing in the Nick of Time
There was a huge lake at the center of Penglai Island, which glittered like it were daytime with a nice breeze, despite the time being in the middle of the night at the moment.
There was already quite a group gathered around the lake at the moment. Members stood at different positions according to the group they belonged to.
Reserve members of some organizations were looking around from somewhere further away, looking as if they were able to act at any given moment.
The cultivators were all very wary of each other, especially so given how they were familiar enough with what the others were capable of.
Every single group seemed to be very formidable.
It was especially so in the case of the leader of the Ark of Heaven, Saint Peter, and the leader of the Association of Lore Seekers, Adam.
There were quite a number of Invincible Vajras in the ranks of the Ark of Heaven. All of them wore holy white robes, casting proud yet wary glances at all around them. One of them looked to be in his fifties. He was a typical European with blue eyes and blonde hair. One was able to tell from his aura that he was one of the most powerful of the lot, and he was none other than Saint Peter, the leader of the Ark of Heaven.
Those who stood across them were members of the Association of Lore Seekers, who all wore black robes. They looked as if they were shrouded in darkness, with a dark phoenix emblazoned on their robes.
That was why he was found sitting cross-legged from the Peach Tree of Immortality at the moment, relying on the qi emanating from the divine tree to heal himself.
However, he never thought that Adam, Saint Peter, and the others would find him there all the same.
Even Ming Yueyao looked rather despaired at the moment. No one would be able to save them during such a time, after all.
In that very tense moment, a man and two women seemingly appeared out of nowhere all of a sudden, standing near the lake.
“Huaxians!”
Everyone looked at the trio. The three of them were none other than Lu Xuan, Lu Shanshan, and Lin Miaoyi.
“She’s alive?” Adam looked at Lin Miaoyi. He vaguely remembered having taken her down, and, according to conventions, she should have been dead. Yet, there she was, alive and well.
Everything just looked too messed up at that moment.
