312: Chapter 297 Leaving_1 312: Chapter 297 Leaving_1 The elder, hearing this, hastily said, “Great Elder, this must not be done!
Right now, with the sect…
that woman’s whereabouts unknown, the sect still needs you to preside, and for you to personally kill an insignificant youngster, it really undermines the dignity of our Profound Sect!”
The Great Elder shouted angrily, “Do you expect to just watch this boy live a carefree life?”
The elder quickly said, “Great Elder, there’s no need to be anxious.
Mu Laogui of the Yin Ghost Sect also perished at Lu Chuan’s hands, and they have been looking for his whereabouts recently.
The Sect Master of the Yin Ghost Sect is a Profound Realm Level 7 expert, and within their sect, there are two elders of Profound Realm Level 6.
For them, killing Lu Chuan would be as easy as turning their hands over.
Why not let the Yin Ghost Sect handle this matter?
That way we can eliminate this scourge without tarnishing the reputation of our Profound Sect.”
The Great Elder snorted coldly, “They can’t even find Lu Chuan’s whereabouts, so how can they eliminate him!”
The elder said, “Does the Great Elder still rember Su Ming?”
The Great Elder recalled for a mont and said, “I have so impression of him; he disrupted an operation by my n, didn’t I tell you to send soone to kill him?”
The elder said, “This Su Ming has beco Lu Chuan’s lackey and survived our assassination.
According to the latest information, he has been continuously protecting those close to Lu Chuan.”
“After Lu Chuan disappeared, Su Ming and those close to Lu Chuan have also gone into hiding.”
“However, when Su Ming joined the Profound Sect, he left his blood with the sect to confirm his life or death status.
Our Profound Sect also has a thod of tracking and locating people through their blood, so finding Su Ming’s whereabouts is not difficult.”
“As long as we find Su Ming’s whereabouts, we will certainly find those close to Lu Chuan.
If we tell the Yin Ghost Sect their location, we needn’t worry about them not being able to find Lu Chuan.”
The Great Elder narrowed his eyes in thought, then said, “If that’s the case, then let the Yin Ghost Sect handle this.
Tell them I want Lu Chuan alive or his body if he’s dead—we must have closure with him this ti!”
“Yes!” The elder quickly agreed.
…
Demon Tribe Territory.
Inside the great hall.
Yun Ji, looking annoyed at Lu Chuan, yelled, “Now that you’ve had my body, you want to leave?
You ungrateful man, I really misjudged you!”
Lu Chuan replied helplessly, “Yun’er, my great revenge has not been avenged; I cannot always remain in the Demon Tribe.
I promise you, if the Demon Tribe is ever in trouble, I will never stand by and watch.
I am willing to beco the guardian of the Demon Tribe, how about that?”
Yun Ji, biting her lip, said, “Isn’t your enemy that Great Elder of the Profound Sect?
I will go and kill him for you right now, so you can stay in the Demon Tribe, dominate, and make rry with night after night.”
Lu Chuan asked, “rry night after night?
Are you sure you can handle that?”
Yun Ji’s expression froze, and she said stiffly, “I…
I can’t handle it, but isn’t there Fuxiang?
Anyway, you cannot leave!”
Lu Chuan said with resignation, “Okay, no more jokes.
Although the Great Elder is not a good person, he is, after all, the Great Elder of the Profound Sect, and this sect holds a pivotal position in human society.
If you go and kill her, it will likely provoke conflict between humans and the Demon Tribe, putting the entire Demon Tribe in danger.”
“Moreover, now that the Karmic Fire inside you has been resolved, you need to start cultivating the Jade Pure Precious Bronze Mirror and must enter seclusion for cultivation as soon as possible.”
“You know your own strength.
At your level, a period of seclusion could last years.
Whether I stay or go, doesn’t it amount to the sa thing?”
“But… but I just want you to stay!” said Yun Ji plaintively.
Lu Chuan looked around and said, “Well then, although you’ll be going into seclusion soon, Fuxiang should be back from the trial grounds soon.
By that ti, I can make rry with her night after night, since you won’t know what’s happening outside while you’re in seclusion.”
Yun Ji glared and then realized the downside of keeping Lu Chuan.
She quickly said, “No, you should go.
I suddenly don’t want you to stay anymore!”
Such a fickle woman…
Lu Chuan smiled faintly and asked, “Can I really go then?”
Yun Ji snorted and turned her back to Lu Chuan, saying, “Hurry up and go.
You’re annoying just by being here!”
Lu Chuan then walked up behind Yun Ji, wrapped his arms around her slender waist, made her lie on her side, and he bent down to kiss her soft lips.
Yun Ji couldn’t resist and wrapped her arms around Lu Chuan’s neck, kissing him passionately.
After a long ti, the two reluctantly parted.
Yun Ji, her face flushed with shyness, said coquettishly, “When I co out of seclusion, I’ll co looking for you, and then you better not turn your back on .”
Lu Chuan said with a smile, “Don’t worry, I’m not that shaless yet.”
At that mont, he suddenly rembered sothing and asked, “By the way, do you have the antidote to Peach Blossom Brew?”
Yun Ji looked puzzled, “What do you need that for?”
Lu Chuan replied, “A friend of mine has been affected by Peach Blossom Brew.
I want to cure her.”
Without much thought, Yun Ji took out a jade bottle from her sleeve and handed it to Lu Chuan, “Here you go.”
Lu Chuan took it, smiled and pinched Yun Ji’s soft buttocks, then turned and ran off, “I’m off!”
Flustered and red-faced with indignation, Yun Ji stamped her foot, “Hooligan!”
…
Bei’an City.
Lu Chuan traveled over mountains and through nurous villages, turning this way and that, until he finally arrived at this modern city, the closest to the territory of the Demon Tribe.
The Demon Suppression Pagoda had withstood ninety percent of the thunder punishnt’s might, causing the Tower Spirit to fall into a state of weakness, so Lu Chuan now needed to find so herbs or fruits rich in power to help the Tower Spirit recover.
Bei’an City is the provincial capital of Yunxi Province, with a developnt pace far surpassing Jiangbei.
Therefore, Lu Chuan did not rush back to Jiangbei but wanted to see if he could find anything here to aid the Tower Spirit’s recovery.
He spent a whole day wandering around the dicine market and the antique street of Bei’an City, purchasing two fifty-year-old herbs and one hundred-year ginseng.
These were the best dicinal materials he could buy on the market—the ones with more years would require visits to auctions or the storerooms of big aristocratic families.
As the saying goes, every little bit helps.
Lu Chuan had the Tower Spirit absorb the efficacy of these three herbs to stabilize its condition.
He planned to find a way to help the Tower Spirit find dicinal materials over two hundred years old.
However, Lu Chuan was unfamiliar with Bei’an City and certainly could not find a channel to buy such rare dicinal materials in a short ti.
He needed to take so ti to think of a solution.
As nightfall arrived and after a day of little gain in Bei’an City, Lu Chuan decided to find a hotel to rest for the night.
As he was heading towards a nearby hotel, he suddenly noticed a familiar figure.
He watched the figure’s back with a hint of doubt, “Su Ming?”
At first, he thought he had seen wrong, but after observing with his Divine Sense, he confird it was Su Ming and was even more astonished.
“Su Ming should be protecting my sister-in-law and Ichikazu in the countryside.
Why would he co here?”
Filled with confusion, Lu Chuan discreetly followed Su Ming to see what he was up to.
Before long, Su Ming turned into a secluded alley.
Lu Chuan stopped at the entrance of the alley and observed the situation with his Divine Sense.
He saw seven or eight tattooed n waiting there, with the leader sporting a scar above his eye, looking fierce and terrifying, giving off a malevolent aura.
The scar-faced man looked at Su Ming and said, “You should be clear about the business we do—buying and selling ‘two-legged sheep.’ These things must not see the light of day, so if you want to join us, you need to show your worth.”
“We’re currently short of two won, high-quality ones.
If you can get them, I’ll agree to let you join us.”
Hearing this, Su Ming indifferently replied, “No problem, I just happen to have the goods you’re looking for.”
Observing all of this with his Divine Sense, Lu Chuan’s face was filled with shock.
Selling ‘two-legged sheep’…
These people are human traffickers!
Why would Su Ming think of joining a human trafficker organization?
The other party wants two won and Su Ming said he had the ‘goods’—could it be…
he plans to sell his sister-in-law and Ichikazu to these human traffickers?
