Chapter 1281: Chapter 765: In Charge of Kaiyuan Prefecture
Heavenly Tower Mountain Peak, the so-called Immortal Temple, is one of the most dilapidated temples in the entire North Continent.
Without any magic artifacts to hold it in place, nor any Heaven and Earth Treasures carefully arranged to make the place radiant.
At first glance, it appears to be hastily and carelessly constructed.
This fits with what Yun Miao said when he heard about Ling Su’s demise. This person showed no disguise in his eager greed to take over Heavenly Tower Mountain.
You Yao walked lightly towards the high cliff behind the Immortal Temple.
Her gaze fell on a silhouette silently ditating at the edge of the cliff, easily seeing through the guise used to conceal his appearance.
The young man’s face was handso and serene, giving an impression of being above worldly struggles.
But just like the disguise on his face, You Yao found it hard to believe this feeling. Based on what he had done, it was clear that this person had an imnse ambition.
Even though this Taixu Pill Emperor only revealed the aura of soone who had just entered the Third Grade, compared to Hao Ming, if anything happened to Shu Yu, You Yao was more inclined to suspect the cause lay here.
“…”
She quietly pressed her lips together, not probing with her words like before.
Her sleeves gently rolled up, and a clear light flickered at her jade-like fingertips, transforming into thousands of thin threads, enveloping Shen Yi’s entire figure.
In an instant, a clear light prison ford, with every beam of clear light slowly constricting. If it touched the flesh, the result would be fragntation.
“Co out and see .”
You Yao’s figure moved slightly, standing behind the young man with her hands at her sides.
Shen Yi fell into this entrapnt formation without any reaction, his brow furrowed as he looked back at the woman, then at the clear light closing in around him, his eyelids flickered slightly.
This Clear Light Sword Formation sealed off heaven and earth. Even the power of the Shenxu Dao Fruit wouldn’t allow an easy escape.
To break the formation, one would need to use substantial Tribulation Power and forcefully tear open a way out.
Judging by the formation’s aura, achieving this with re Third Grade, or even with Three-Three Transformation cultivation, was far from enough.
“…”
Shen Yi seed hesitant, also not questioning aloud, but slowly closed his eyes.
You Yao watched quietly, her face revealing no emotions, showing no intention of halting despite his silence.
The clear light drew ever nearer, brushing against Shen Yi’s cheek. His white skin subtly split, leaving a barely discernible blood mark.
Finally, he sighed softly: “Alas.”
In an instant, a thick, nearly black mist surged out, enveloping Shen Yi completely.
When the mist cleared, Shen Yi was no longer within the Clear Light Sword Formation.
He now stood outside the formation, wiping the blood mark from his face with his thumb, calmly staring at the woman in the black skirt, seemingly awaiting an explanation.
“You really hid your cultivation.”
Realized You Yao, retracting the clear light with a bending finger. The insect demon disciple Yun Miao ntioned as newly Third Grade clearly possessed Six-Six Transformation strength.
What puzzled her was that the young man, having his true strength so easily exposed, showed no panic, which was unexpected.
“Don’t you want to explain sothing?”
“I was fleeing for my life. Walking through the other Three Continents, all under Bodhi Sect’s control, concealing my tracks and hiding my cultivation was natural. Who do I need to explain to?”
Shen Yi finished speaking slowly and fell silent, still looking at the woman with the sa gaze.
His intention was clear.
You Yao’s face darkened slightly. He had finished explaining, now it was her turn.
“Shu Yu had an incident, his dojo was divided up. You were at Heavenly Tower Mountain, closest to his dojo, and took his incense. Now you conceal your cultivation. Is it a problem that I seek you out?”
“No problem.”
Shen Yi pondered for a while after hearing the explanation, then nodded and looked back: “So who is Shu Yu?”
“…”
You Yao paused, her already grim face turning worse.
Indeed, by common sense, the other person, with no support in the North Continent and abandoned by Yun Miao and others, indeed had no one to inform him of the surrounding matters.
But she didn’t believe that soone who could escape from the Bodhi Sect and remain calm after arriving in the North Continent, despite being mocked as an insect demon disciple, would not actively seek information about threats to his life.
This was playing word gas with her.
Her patience gradually wore thin: “Shu Yu is the second disciple under Qingguang Cave, the master of the dojo in Kaiyuan Prefecture City. Any other questions?”
“Who are you?”
“You Yao.”
You Yao had never been one easily influenced by others, which was how she managed to secure her current position in the great tribulation.
Now was no exception.
With the young man’s deliberate feigning of ignorance, she beca more convinced that Shu Yu’s incident was related to the Taixu Pill Emperor, her voice finally carrying a hint of coldness.
Fortunately, Shen Yi did not continue to ask who You Yao was but turned to look down the mountain: “These refugees ca to Heavenly Tower Mountain, the nearby cultivator’s cultivation surpasses mine, why are you so sure the problem lies with ?”
“Because before Shu Yu disappeared, he ca to see you…”
You Yao’s words were cut off as the young man suddenly turned his head.
Shen Yi raised an eyebrow: “What did he co to see for?”
Confronted with this question, You Yao paused. She could find an excuse, but as she thought earlier, playing word gas was aningless.
Everyone knew when a North Continent cultivator chose to seek out the Taixu Pill Emperor privately, their true intentions.
