Su Chengyu’s figure flashed, instantly arriving beside Su Chengyu, imdiately holding the barely breathing Chang Li.
Feeling Su Chengyu’s presence, the graceful girl finally stopped forcing herself, and in the next mont, transford back into a crimson fox form.
Without daring to slack off, Su Chengyu imdiately began treating Chang Li.
Fortunately, although Chang Li’s injuries looked terrifying, they were rely superficial wounds; the main reason for her coma was exhaustion.
Was it Hu Xiao?
Su Chengyu’s brows furrowed, and he imdiately suspected Hu Xiao.
But after thinking it over, Su Chengyu couldn’t figure out why Hu Xiao would make such a move.
Moreover, if it were indeed Hu Xiao, he didn’t believe Chang Li would have had a chance to return alive.
After all, returning alive ant Chang Li hadn’t encountered a true threat, hence the Sword Qi left in her body hadn’t been triggered.
But if it wasn’t Hu Xiao, why had Chang Li ended up like this, and where was Hu Xiao now?
The intertwining mysteries made Su Chengyu feel that sothing was very wrong.
He attempted to use his Divine Sense to probe the direction they went, but at this mont, that place was completely shrouded by mist, so even with Su Chengyu’s abilities, he couldn’t penetrate it.
This situation made Su Chengyu feel even more uneasy; while helping Chang Li stabilize her inner exhaustion and quickly regain consciousness, he invoked the Heavenly Dao’s Breath within him, under the Mountain and Sea Scroll, recreating the scene behind him.
"What’s going on?"
Seeing the scene still shrouded in mist even on the Mountain and Sea Scroll, Su Chengyu’s brows knitted tightly together, knowing that even the White Tiger Tribe completely covered by the Thunder Pond was transparent to him before the intervention of the White Tiger Immortal Core.
"In this case, there’s only one possibility. The Heavenly Dao’s Breath of that place has gathered, completely isolating itself from the outside world. This mist is not ford by any single Heavenly Dao’s Breath, but the result of all the Power of the Heavenly Dao in that area working together."
The Vermilion Bird Immortal Core explained the situation to Su Chengyu.
"Thus, it can block the scroll’s recreation; this scroll seems only so-so."
Su Chengyu’s words were clearly filled with a bit of reproach and dissatisfaction, to which the Vermilion Bird Immortal Core was very annoyed.
"What do you know? Do you think it’s easy to deploy such a barrier? Even in our pri, the four of us couldn’t create a barrier of this magnitude."
"Really?"
Su Chengyu asked in surprise, understanding that the four ntioned by the Vermilion Bird Immortal Core were the Four Directions Divine Beasts.
Even in the pri of the Four Directions Divine Beasts, without considering their combined efforts, they were genuine Earth Immortals above the Ascending Immortal Realm.
"Nonsense, I’ve said it before. This is recreated by the complete Power of the Heavenly Dao; such a barrier cannot be deployed by one individual’s power. It’s mostly likely soone of great ability borrowing so source of power from Heaven and Earth, then directly deploying it. Its nature is almost equivalent to the barrier between two worlds, an existence of the Heaven and Earth Laws. How many can ignore the Heaven and Earth Laws, even across the Myriad Heavens and Worlds?"
"Supre Emperor..."
Seeing Su Chengyu’s realization, the Vermilion Bird Immortal Core cald down considerably, speaking coldly.
"It’s good you know, aside from specific Immortal Venerables or Immortal Kings with unique Divine Skills or talents, only those high above, the Supre Emperors."
Su Chengyu imdiately fell into silence, his expression becoming extrely grave.
Seeing the awareness of the White Tiger Immortal Core still within that girl’s body, Su Chengyu silently began to make so arrangents, then focused entirely on treating Chang Li.
"Uh...cough cough..."
Accompanied by a slight coughing, Chang Li’s consciousness finally returned.
Su Chengyu hurriedly placed her on the ground, then exerted a little force, transforming Chang Li directly into human form, and draped a white outer garnt over her.
"No need to communicate with Divine Sense, your Inner Breath hasn’t stabilized. I’ll transform you directly into human form, just narrate to verbally what happened."
Chang Li’s condition was still unstable, making verbal communication the safest thod.
After listening to Su Chengyu’s words, Chang Li was evidently still a bit dazed. She pressed her temples with her jade hand several tis before suddenly recalling sothing and exclaid excitedly.
"Master, Lord Hu Xiao is in danger."
Su Chengyu blinked and calmly asked, "Hmm, did he ask you to return and report this?"
Chang Li nodded, "Following the master’s instructions, we went to explore that place, but as we approached, thick fog suddenly rose around us. Before I could react, countless attacks erged from the mist, targeting . Fortunately, Lord Hu Xiao reacted in ti, and I was lightly injured but protected by him to escape the battlefield’s center."
"Is that guy very strong?"
Chang Li scratched her head, pondering a bit, "I don’t know, but based on Lord Hu Xiao’s initial deanor, he didn’t take the opponent seriously at all. It’s just..."
"Just what?"
Su Chengyu pursued the question; logically, if the attacker’s strength vastly inferior to Hu Xiao, he wouldn’t have Long Li actively co seek him for help. This was a perfect chance for him to compensate Chang Li, and with his personality, he definitely wouldn’t miss it.
"Lord Hu Xiao was indeed at ease initially, but after a brief exchange, the opponent’s attacks accelerated trendously, causing increasing difficulty for Lord Hu Xiao. In just over ten moves, Lord Hu Xiao seed to realize sothing and ordered to quickly return to you, master, thus I..."
"That guy is acting as the rear guard?"
Su Chengyu was a bit surprised.
Chang Li pondered and then truthfully said, "Lord Hu Xiao, after alerting , seed to want to escape as well, but the surrounding mist had thickened from when it initially rose. Lord Hu Xiao was overextended and seed to be completely trapped within."
Su Chengyu blinked and said, "He probably understood that he couldn’t leave with you, so he stayed behind."
"But..."
Chang Li frowned, clearly there was one more thing she couldn’t comprehend, to which Su Chengyu calmly replied, "He didn’t abandon you and escape because he knows that if he did, I wouldn’t let him off."
"Even so, couldn’t he have just fled himself?"
Vermilion Bird Immortal Core coldly interjected from the side.
Su Chengyu made no rebuttal; Hu Xiao’s situation was indeed sowhat similar to Vermilion Bird Immortal Core’s, except that Vermilion Bird Immortal Core’s attitude towards him was relatively indifferent, whereas Hu Xiao was actively trying to get closer to his faction.
However, with almost identical positions, Hu Xiao staying behind was indeed a better choice at that ti, since if he could cover Chang Li’s escape, he could surely have abandoned everything to forcibly escape himself.
And currently, only Chang Li had escaped, a situation that was definitely not to Hu Xiao’s advantage, unless... there was sothing else he wasn’t aware of.
Su Chengyu turned to look at the girl, and in the next mont, his pupils suddenly widened.
The White Tiger Immortal Core’s consciousness that had previously entered the girl’s body had now completely disappeared.
