Night, at the Red-clad Mansion, a figure, like a ghost, appears on the training field.
A pair of chilling eyes scans the area.
"That traitor Hong Guan who stole the rituals of communicating with Martial Spirit from the Sect, actually escaped to such a remote place, which took quite a while to find."
"However, no matter how capable you are at running, you can’t escape from the palm of the Holy Sect."
The figure speaks in a low voice, with a sowhat hoarse tone, like the friction of tal.
This is an elderly man, beardless, pale-faced, with ssy white hair loosely spread on his back.
He sniffed and murmured, "Here’s a hint of Hong Guan’s scent, very faint, should be left by those often here who were infused with Hong Guan’s magic power."
"This person must have co into contact with Hong Guan. If I find this person, I might be able to know Hong Guan’s whereabouts."
Having said that, he pushes back the hair from the back of his head to reveal a ghastly pale face.
The facial features on this face are distorted and full of malice, with a cruel look in his eyes.
Heh heh...
He chuckles softly with the face at the back of his head, like a ghast in the night, revealing a row of sharp teeth like saw teeth.
His nose also twitched a few tis, and the elder’s gaze turned towards the direction of Liu Family’s Blood Land Vein, saying, "Over there, found it."
Just as he was about to leave the Red-clad Mansion, two figures leaped in from outside. They happened to et face-to-face with the Elder.
"Friend, you’re also here to fish in troubled waters? Let’s not cross paths, each of us find our own."
One of the masked n said.
The two of them ca from a faction in Changfeng City.
Having a keen sense of sll, they sensed sothing was wrong when all the Red-clad Guard withdrew in a day and stationed around the Liu Family’s Blood Land Vein. They foresaw a possible war between the two Feudal Lords.
When Immortals fight, mortals suffer.
They didn’t want to stay in Changfeng City, but before leaving, they wanted to make a final haul. The unguarded Red-clad Mansion was undoubtedly an excellent target.
They thought the Elder was a fellow opportunist like them.
"Heh heh, you’re unlucky to run into , because, I’m hungry."
This eerie voice ca out, but the Elder’s mouth clearly hadn’t moved.
The two n felt a shiver down their spines and cautiously retreated, but it was already too late.
In a flash, the old man rushed out like a ghost, piercing one man’s heart, digging it out, and chewing it on the face at the back of his head.
"Monster... Monster!"
The remaining man’s courage was shattered, and he turned around to run, but was already caught by the neck by the Elder.
He struggled in a frenzy, but his fourth Breakthrough Cultivation Level was like a chick in the Elder’s hands.
Then, the face on the back of his head bit into the man’s neck. The man’s face quickly paled, his skin shriveled, and he turned into a dried corpse.
"Finally, I’m not that hungry anymore."
The cold voice ca out, and the ghostly pale face was once again hidden in the disheveled hair.
The Elder frowned slightly, snorted coldly, and darted towards the direction of Liu Family’s Blood Land Vein, disappearing into the darkness.
...
Three days later.
Deep night, starless and moonless.
Swish!
Boom!
Suddenly, a shooting star soared across the sky, igniting a fiery blanket of stars.
"Enemy attack, enemy attack!"
Anxiously, the roar tore through the dark night, echoing far and wide.
Lu Yan, Murong Kai, Wang Lin and the other mbers of the Seventh Team all changed color, their Qi-blood stirred, and they were fully alert.
"They’re coming."
Murong Kai suddenly shouted.
More than a dozen dark shadows tore through the night, rushing from a distance, with guns, knives, or re bare hands.
Several people at the front moved extrely fast. One of them threw his spear, which tore through the void, charging straight at Murong Kai.
Murong Kai had already drawn his War Knife and chopped with all his might. With a clang, he was forced back three steps, but successfully blocked the spear.
But the ones in the front were already closing in.
Thud!
A blade’s glow swept past and a Red-clad Guard’s head flew high into the sky.
Murong Kai was already engaged in battle with two high-level experts.
Ah!
Then, screams rose and fell.
The enemies ca prepared, nurous experts, all of them elite. Just in terms of the Fifth Breakthrough, they had three, there was no way these Red-clad Guards could compete.
Red-clad Guards were continuously being killed.
"Wang Lin, stay by my side."
Lu Yan moved out, landed to Wang Lin’s right side, aid a palm and sent a muscular man of the Fourth Breakthrough flying. Following that, he drew his sword with his left hand and split another Fourth Breakthrough expert in half.
But in just that brief mont, out of the eleven Red-clad Guards, only Muyrong Kai, Lu Yan, and Wang Lin were left. The rest laid in puddles of blood.
Cannon fodder!
The Liu Family assigned them to the outer periter, purely as cannon fodder, serving as an early warning system.
"Lu Yan, save , save ..."
From not far away, a terrified cry ca from Murong Kai.
He was besieged by three people of the Fifth Breakthrough level, unable to hold them off, he had already been stabbed multiple tis, and death was imminent.
He knew how powerful Lu Yan was, unfathomable, only Lu Yan could save him.
But Lu Yan remained indifferent, rely looking on coldly.
Thud!
Murong Kai’s arm was chopped off.
"Lu Yan, you are so ruthless... Watching as I die..."
Murong Kai scread, then his heart was pierced through by a spear and he fell dead on the ground.
"And you were still hoping for this kid to save you, naive, he can hardly protect himself."
A powerful man spoke coldly, fixing his gaze on Lu Yan, "This kid has so skills, let’s kill him together."
With those words, his towering body was already charging towards Lu Yan, his long spear whistling out, stabbing towards Lu Yan’s heart.
But Lu Yan reached out and grabbed the spear. With a fierce shake, a powerful tremor engulfed the spear, causing the other person to lose his grip and retreat while bleeding from his palm.
"Kill!"
Lu Yan stepped forward and swiftly stabbed forward, the spear point plunged into the opponent’s chest, causing a large hole to explode, the body was flung away, no longer showing any signs of life.
The other two approaching were horrified, a chill crawled up from their feet to the Heavenly Spirit Cover.
He killed a Fifth Breakthrough in just one move. Although this Fifth Breakthrough person only cultivated a second-rate martial art, it was enough to demonstrate Lu Yan’s terror.
"Bear Blade."
One of them, a mber of the Wu Family, practiced Earth Bear Strike Hand. At this ti, his bulky arm transford into an even more robust shape, and unbelievably two bone blades sprouted from his wrist, just like a war knife, slashing towards Lu Yan.
Lu Yan abandoned his spear and drew his sword. Under the night sky, the Red Blood Blade unfolded a bright red glow, clashing with the bone blade.
In an instant, the bone blade shattered, the Red Blood Blade didn’t stop, and with a swishing sound, a head flew into the air.
The third Fifth Breakthrough-level expert was shattered with fear and turned to escape.
The lower-level martial artists of the Fourth and Third Breakthrough didn’t dare to stay any longer and scattered in all directions, fleeing.
"Trying to escape?"
Lu Yan’s eyes were cold, his feet tapped, and his body charged out like the wind, quickly catching up to that Fifth Breakthrough expert, slashing down his sword and splitting the man at the waist into two halves.
He then utilized Wind Chasing Step and chased after the rest of the fleeing individuals, killing them one after another.
Wang Lin was stunned as he watched Lu Yan massacring all around him with no opponent to match, truly unfathomable.
Lu Yan’s power had beco much more formidable than during his last battle with the Ge family of Zhuifeng City, utterly inscrutable.
The Red Blood Blade, as expected of a divine weapon, killed many people yet remained blood-free.
As he sheathed his blade, Lu Yan looked toward the top of the mountain, saying, "Brother Wang, you go back to the city first. I’ll go up the mountain to save my parents and also rescue your relatives."
The Wu Family’s attack, the big battle between the two feudal lords, it was the perfect ti to save people in this chaos.
Lu Yan had been waiting for this opportunity.
