The best defense is offense.
Chen nglu perfectly embodied this saying with his actions. The colossal figure of Lei Jun, who should have been an easy target, forced the Xiang Family experts to flee from the divine thunder of his enveloping Divine Firmant Lightning Rings, unable to form a tactical formation or even release a complete Spirit Art.
Indeed, had it been warriors from other schools facing Chen nglu, they would not have found it so difficult. Alas, the entire Xiang Family cultivated the Yun Family’s thods, converting all Spiritual Power into its purest form.
This Thunder Body was none other than the incarnation of the Great Qi Divine Seal amongst Chen nglu’s Four Imperial powers, facing the Yun Clan’s thods with the body of Lei Jun made it as easy as an adult overpowering a child.
Even with the assistance of five Fierce Realm squads, Xiang Yan had rely gone from death’s door to being surrounded by danger.
As Xiang Ange watched his family’s master and the Fierce Realm struggling amidst the thunderous waves, his brows furrowed tightly, and he kept looking northward.
The communication officer, who had been dispatched before the battle, should have already reached Yulin Pavilion by now. According to the Pavilion Master’s last reply to Wang Invincible, Yulin Pavilion should have imdiately sent soone. But so much ti had passed, why hadn’t Master Shaolin arrived yet?
While the masters’ battle raged, at another location several dozen li to the north of Chaochang, Sister Xiu’er was breathlessly supporting a tall tree, with a person lying at her feet—it was the officer who had left earlier after receiving a whisper from Xiang Ange to report to Yulin Pavilion.
She couldn’t interfere in a battle of masters, but after seeing the master leave, she keenly used the Spirit World Passage following the whisper from Xiang Ange and managed, just barely, to intercept the officer before he could reach Yulin Pavilion, hoping to be of assistance to that master.
After making sure the unconscious officer was secure, Sister Xiu’er caught her breath and hurriedly ascended on her cloud steed toward the center of the Wilderness.
The reason she chose the cloud steed instead of the Spirit World Passage was that everyone’s attention was focused on the battle of masters, and no one would notice her.
Secondly, to be fully prepared, Xiang Ange was ticulous. If he noticed the delay of the officer, he might send another. Thus, by taking to the skies, she could always be aware of the outside world and not miss anything.
The journey was smooth without any mishaps, but as she passed over the Desolate Ridge Wooden House, she vaguely noticed a figure.
This made Sister Xiu’er freeze in mid-air. Following the arrangent of the battle, all the warriors observing near the Desolate Ridge had pursued the Wilderness, leaving none behind. So, who was this figure in front of the wooden house at this ti?
Driven by strong curiosity, Sister Xiu’er descended on her cloud steed, wanting to get a clear look at the figure.
Just as she was carefully descending, she noticed the figure suddenly turn its head, eyes eting hers directly.
Flustered, Sister Xiu’er planned to flee, but then she realized the figure that had turned its head was not a real person, but a transparent Spiritual Power that bore an uncanny resemblance to the Thunder Grandmaster.
But could this be an illusion? After all, even Master Zhu, the guest elder of the Liu Family, was trapped in an Illusion Array. With her modest level of cultivation, it would be normal to be misled.
With this thought, Sister Xiu’er quickly manipulated her Spirit Imprint, trying to leave on her cloud steed, only to find that the space around her seed to be fixed in place, the normally agile cloud steed stuck as if in a mire, unable to move.
No, not unable to move, but being pulled by so mysterious force towards the Desolate Ridge, tearing through the air. No matter how much Sister Xiu’er resisted, it was to no avail.
As she was restrained and pulled closer, the spirit that resembled the Thunder Grandmaster spoke, “Miss has been paying attention to the Desolate Ridge Wooden House since this morning. Why do you now wish to flee when given the opportunity?”
Sister Xiu’er was startled when the spirit suddenly spoke, and even more surprised by the content of its words, “What do you an by that, senior?”
“When the three families of Wind dia forcefully entered the Desolate Ridge, there was a group of civilians standing on the city walls looking on, and you were among them. But unlike everyone else’s curious and excited gazes, your eyes were filled with worry.”
After pulling Sister Xiu’er in front of him, the spirit released its hold and spoke with politeness, “Chen would like to ask if you recognize the person who resides in this wooden house?”
“`
With these words, Sister Xiu’er was ninety percent certain that the person before her was the aid requested by Tang Luo, although she did not know how the other party managed to create such a conscious spiritual body. But seeing his ability to control the clouds just now, she realized he far surpassed her own talents by an unknown multitude. If he was truly an enemy, why would he release her from the binding so easily?
Thinking of her uncle and Tang Luo’s injuries, Sister Xiu’er gritted her teeth and said, “Senior, an old acquaintance from the Four Imperial Kingdoms has suffered a severe injury and seeks your help!”
“Severe injury?” The spiritual body first paused, then showed imnse confusion.
Located at the Southern Region of Longzhou, on the shores of the South Sea, if Tang Luo were seriously injured and seeking help, shouldn’t he have sent a letter directly to Longxi for assistance?
No matter how one looked at it, Tang Clan’s urgency with him must have exceeded her own, and moreover, the na of the Fire-Stealing Grandmaster resounded throughout Longzhou. With such cultivation, he would have been more than capable of fetching him from Chaochang; why then would Tang Luo forsake the nearby assistance and send the letter to Beimang instead?
As he was lost in confusion, he suddenly recalled Xiang Yan’s seemingly mocking slander. At first, Chen nglu had thought it was just an excuse Xiang Yan made to rally others against him, but now it seed there was indeed such a possibility.
The Devil Lord Gou Chen, Longxi’s Pride?
But how could that be possible?
If those two identities belong to the sa person, then this world is truly insane!
Too many questions needed to be answered in person by Tang Luo. The spiritual body spoke in a deep voice, “Where is the old acquaintance?”
“Senior, follow !”
With the Spirit World Passage, Sister Xiu’er led the spiritual body to the boundary between the inner and outer city, where a sky-covering array screen blocked their way.
Just as Sister Xiu’er was about to break the array, the spiritual body stopped her, “Let do it.”
As they spoke, the spiritual body placed its leading palm against the array screen, and its originally transparent body suddenly beca like the array screen, then rged into it completely.
After rging with the array screen, the spiritual body even opened a hole big enough for several people to pass through.
Having passed the most troubleso array screen, the two soon arrived at the rendezvous point, but there was no sign of Yun Quan or Tang Luo.
There was only an empty wooden wheelchair and a ground full of poisonous pus blood drawn out by dicinal stones.
Sister Xiu’er, with a drastically changed complexion, imdiately stepped forward and eventually saw a line of spirit engravings where Yun Quan had laid.
This was the secret language of their clan, signifying specific information, and the spirit engraving left by Yun Quan indicated the resting place he had prepared in the inner city before embarking on the mission.
Sister Xiu’er, taking a long breath of relief, led the spiritual body out of the passage and finally encountered Yun Quan and Tang Luo, who were healing themselves by drawing out poison at the confird resting spot.
Seeing his niece return with a spiritual body, Yun Quan stood up and asked, “Xiu’er, who is this?”
“He is the rescuer requested by the Devil Lord, Chen nglu, Master Chen.”
Sister Xiu’er introduced to Yun Quan, and upon hearing the na Chen nglu, joy rose on Yun Quan’s brows!
