Chapter 753: Chapter 246: Luring the Tiger Away from the Mountain
"It seems that you don’t take , the Saintess, seriously," Despite not knowing what exactly a Saintess is, judging from the guard’s reaction, her status must not be lower than that of Hu Linglong.
With a cold glare from Yun Sheng, the guard shuddered.
The always gentle Saintess, suddenly displaying her authority, frightened the guard, who hurriedly explained: "Holy Daughter, please calm your anger, I dare not offend. These people were captured by Lord Linglong, saying they are to be used as a sacrifice for the Magic Wand."
"Where are those people now?" Yun Sheng surveyed the Skyship, which was much larger than the one she had previously obtained from the Dark Night Pavilion.
This Five-Colored Airship looked very special; it’s not out of question that there might be other Magic Arrays arranged within it.
"This..." The guard felt that there was sothing off with the Holy Daughter tonight.
In his mory, the Holy Daughter rarely appeared in public, and even when she went out, she was always accompanied by Lord Linglong, who conveyed ssages on her behalf.
But tonight, whether it was due to the darkness of night, or perhaps...
The guard always felt that tonight’s Holy Daughter, just by standing there, gave off an intimidating aura that should not be underestimated.
The guard, consud by doubt, secretly raised his head, but the face he saw was indeed that of the Holy Daughter.
The Holy Daughter of the Sky Fox Clan, not to ntion anything else, was so beautiful that even her cousin, Lord Linglong, would feel inferior in comparison.
The guard’s odd behavior caught Yun Sheng’s side glance.
Yun Sheng had a thought, her gaze shifted, and a flash of gold light swept through her black pupils.
The guard was struck as if by lightning, his mind going blank in an instant.
"Tell , where are those who have been captured?" Yun Sheng breathed a sigh of relief.
Her power with Shennong’s Eyes had improved considerably compared to before, giving her full confidence in controlling a capable Sky Fox Guard.
Moreover, this guard had always believed that Yun Sheng was so Holy Daughter of the Sky Fox Clan, fostering a sense of awe and neglecting to guard against her, hence he was easily hypnotized by Yun Sheng’s Shennong’s Eyes.
The guard took Yun Sheng to a cabin; upon looking inside, aside from that delirious trainee, the rest were indeed locked up there.
Upon seeing Yun Sheng, those people imdiately beca agitated.
"Everyone calm down, first tell , how many people are here?" Yun Sheng was afraid of alarming others on the Skyship.
She observed that not only were there people from the Mainland Magic Elite Camp detained in the cabin, but there were also so from the Martial Artist Elite Camp, and even so young masters from noble families on the continent.
So of these people had been captured by Hu Linglong for several days already.
Hu Linglong would extract one person every day to absorb their Magic Soul, and seeing their companions becoming imbeciles, they were all terrified. Now, finally seeing soone coming to rescue them, they all surged forward in a swarm.
After confirming the number of people, Yun Sheng also made sure if anyone was injured. As it turned out, the majority had suffered injuries to varying degrees during their capture.
To prevent the mages and martial artists from escaping, Hu Linglong had even applied the Magic Soul Lock, and for the martial artists, their fighting spirit was specifically sealed by Prohibition.
"What a malicious woman," Yun Sheng muttered with a frown.
It seems that Hu Linglong is also a very calculating person.
The disciples who went to send ssages to the two elders have been out of touch all along.
The unexpected injuries of Liu Tongtian and Senior Sister Lan caused the Mainland Magic Elite Camp to lose most of its combat power.
The remaining trainees are also nothing but a motley crew.
To save soone... afraid that it might not be easy, Yun Sheng furrowed her brows as she thought for a mont, then looked around the dark cabin at pairs of frightened and uneasy eyes.
A plan suddenly ford in her mind.
"Who is on board, and where is the cockpit?" The guard, looking bewildred, inford Yun Sheng.
On the skyship, Hu Linglong was in ditation, assimilating the Magic Soul of a Human Clan trainee for her own use.
Just then, there ca a hasty knock on the door.
A voice from outside said: "Lord Linglong, there are assassins on board, and the humans in the cabin have escaped."
"What?" Hu Linglong, upon hearing this, grabbed her Magic Wand and rushed out.
Arriving at the cabin where the prisoners were held, she saw it was completely empty, not a single person was left.
"Damn humans, soone co quick, call up six Priests and chase after them with ," Hu Yan heeded the guard’s guidance, leading several high-level experts of the Sky Fox Clan in the direction of the "fugitives."
No sooner had Hu Linglong left than Yun Sheng and so trainees poked their heads out from another hidden room close by.
The dozens of hostages from before hadn’t actually escaped at all; they had just been urgently moved by Yun Sheng to the cabin next door.
Hu Linglong, having only checked the original cabin, didn’t imagine that the very people she was chasing were actually right next door.
The trainees, especially, had been genuinely worried about being discovered by Hu Linglong a mont ago.
"Yun... Captain Yun, what should we do next?" Two trainees were by now truly recognizing Yun Sheng’s role as their captain.
"No ti to waste, imdiately drive the skyship away. The captain has been temporarily subdued," Yun Sheng had found her way to the cockpit earlier.
Like the guard from before, the captain also mistook Yun Sheng for the Heavenly Fox Clan’s Saintess and got fooled by Yun Sheng when he was caught off guard.
Hu Linglong, along with a group of Sky Fox Clan experts, were chasing at full speed, led by that Fox Clan guard.
After an intense half-hour chase, they still hadn’t caught even a glimpse of a shadow.
Hu Linglong couldn’t help but grow suspicious. Not to ntion the assassins who had intruded on the skyship, but just those hostages who had their Magic Souls and fighting spirit restrained, how could they have possibly run off so far, so quickly.
And they couldn’t catch up even with magic?
"Stop, are you sure the people went in this direction?" Hu Linglong called out to the guard ahead of her.
But the guard seed confused and couldn’t answer for a long ti.
"Lord Linglong, sothing seems off with this person," one of the six Priests following her, who seed the eldest, stepped forward. He knew a bit of Gu Technique.
He observed the guard’s vacant gaze and nonsensical speech, which was very similar to those who had been bewitched by witchcraft.
At this mont, a flicker of multicolored light flashed across the distant sky.
"Damn it, we’ve fallen for a misdirection, hurry, let’s get back," Hu Linglong was seething with rage.
That Five-Colored Airship was a treasure of her father’s. If she lost it, she would surely face punishnt upon returning.
On the airship, Yun Sheng and two other trainees didn’t breathe a sigh of relief until the ship had lifted off the ground.
As long as the airship left the middle area of the Dutian Beast Blood Realm, they would be safe.
"Captain Yun, it’s bad, they’re chasing us again," just a re 15 minutes into their flight, when they were about to enter the outer periter of the Dutian Beast Blood Realm, a trainee on deck, in a panic, pointed below the airship.
