Upon hearing this, the person managing the Peach Blossom Forest in Shuanghe County instantly broke into a cold sweat.
In a place of such romance, incidents of death could indeed affect its operations.
"Second Flower Master, my managent has been inadequate, I request punishnt!"
"Forget it this ti." The Second Flower Master lazily said, "I am not soone who is heartless. Before I arrived, I already heard you discussing for half a minute."
"The assailant is at the Innate Seventh Layer, able to force the Three Yin Saint Son back a step in a fight... it’s beyond your control."
"Thank you, Second Flower Master! I will make sure to manage the Peach Blossom Forest well in the future," said the manager quickly, wiping the sweat off his forehead.
"Coincidentally, I am also sowhat interested in that person. An Innate Seventh Layer who can withstand a Grandmaster First Layer... that’s rare."
The next mont, the lazy words still lingering in the room, the mysterious Second Flower Master, who had just arrived, vanished once more.
Only now did the Guard Captain, who had been holding his breath, whisper, "Is the Second Flower Master going after that assailant? But, that person has already been gone for a while..."
Wu Lin, the manager, said deeply, "With the Second Flower Master taking action, what’s the harm in giving a re Innate Seventh Layer a head start?"
An extre and respectful fervor appeared on Wu Lin’s face.
To be able to control the Peach Blossom Forest spread across several Great Jing states, regardless of the Great Flower Master, the Second Flower Master... they are truly a peak Grandmaster Realm expert!
...
On the other side.
After completing the task, Lu Ye traversed about two to three hundred miles away from the Peach Blossom Forest, before slightly slowing down his pace.
Suddenly, Lu Ye’s brows furrowed; with his late-stage Grandmaster Eighth Layer intuition...
He sensed a terrifying presence behind him, approaching at light speed!
"Is this... a true Grandmaster?!"
Lu Ye’s expression changed dramatically, his body accelerated instantly, pushing the Earth Tier Upper Grade Wandering Dragon Body Technique to its limits.
In mid-air, he left afterimages that quickly faded away!
Although he hadn’t directly faced the pursuit, Lu Ye could guess that even a Grandmaster Ninth Layer Perfection wouldn’t possess such a terrifying aura.
That could only an... a Grandmaster!
"People from the Peach Blossom Forest? They actually have a true Grandmaster?"
Prior to this, Lu Ye hadn’t understood much about such places of romance.
Now discovering that such a place could produce a Grandmaster, Lu Ye realized he might have underestimated the background of the Peach Blossom Forest.
This was the first ti Lu Ye fully exerted his Wandering Dragon Body Technique, which had already reached Perfection, without holding back.
In an instant, hundreds of miles were left behind.
Behind Lu Ye, the Second Flower Master, following that faint scent of blood, paused slightly.
In her perception, the figure that initially wasn’t far away suddenly seed to have taken so dicine, instantly distancing itself by over a hundred miles!
"Is this the body technique of an Innate Seventh Layer?"
The Second Flower Master gazed ahead, muttering, "Interesting, let’s see how long you can maintain this."
...
Ten minutes later.
The Second Flower Master stopped about a thousand miles away on the surface of a raging river, slightly furrowing her brows.
The person seed to have realized that conventional routes couldn’t shake off her pursuit and then used the waterway to escape after reaching here.
Now, the already faint scent of blood, after being washed by the turbulent river, had long vanished without a trace.
In other words... the trail was lost.
"Not very strong, unexpectedly skilled in body technique, and quite clever in response, interesting." The Second Flower Master glanced over the roaring river, lazily saying, "This ti... I’ll let you go."
She was rely curious; the na of the Three Yin Sect she had heard long before.
And to beco a sect’s Saint Son, the strength of the Three Yin Saint Son couldn’t possibly be weak.
In such a situation, being forced back by an Innate Seventh Layer was what piqued the Second Flower Master’s interest.
Imdiately, the Second Flower Master turned and gracefully left, leaving only the rushing river, roaring loudly.
...
On the other side, Lu Ye, erging from underwater for air, glanced behind him...
Seeing no one there, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"This person’s strength is formidable... Definitely not an ordinary Mortal Realm First to Second Layer Grandmaster!"
Quickly erging from the water, and flying another hundred miles at full speed, confirming there was no activity following, he found a cave and set up a shielding barrier.
In this desperate escape, Lu Ye’s Grandmaster’s Source Qi, rare as it was, dropped to only about fifty percent remaining!
This shows how much pressure the Grandmaster chasing him had placed on Lu Ye.
"Where did such a terrifying Grandmaster co from in the Northern Territory?"
While quickly absorbing Heaven and Earth Source Qi to recover, Lu Ye pondered.
"If this person truly cos from the Peach Blossom Forest... then the power of this Peach Blossom Forest is quite frightening."
However, he could tell that the Grandmaster chasing him wasn’t very malicious, as they hadn’t exerted their full power.
Otherwise, even escaping through the waterway wouldn’t have been so smooth.
A full hour later.
Lu Ye finally managed to refill his Dantian using the relatively good Heaven and Earth Source Qi here.
Rising, cautiously exiting the cave, he discovered the surroundings were calm, only then heading towards the Red Cloud Mountain Range.
...
Red Cloud Sect, Task Hall.
"What?! You really completed a Ten-Star Task?!"
The Task Hall disciple stared at Lu Ye, his tone a bit off.
As soon as these words ca out, the grand hall quietened considerably, countless gazes turned towards him.
Having anticipated this situation, Lu Ye calmly took out the head of Blood-handed Butcher Pang Xiong and said, "Please verify, Junior Brother."
Seeing Pang Xiong’s head, still bearing a look of deep terror, the Task Hall disciple carefully checked several facial features...
All matched!
"Co... Congratulations, Brother Lu, on completing a Ten-Star Task!" The Task Hall disciple felt even his speech beca less fluent.
"Please give your Identity Jade Token, and I’ll assign you the task points."
A mont later, after Lu Ye received the points and left the Task Hall.
The remaining disciples looked at the task indicator array, at the top, showing the two words [Completed] after the Ten-Star Task, all of them were shocked!
In the Red Cloud Sect’s decades, a Ten-Star Task, never completed by any disciple... has been completed by soone?!
Half an incense stick later.
When the news reached the Red Cloud Fairy, the Red Cloud Sect Leader bit her teeth.
Wishing to truly transform into a strict teacher, wielding a teaching rod, to sternly instruct this disobedient disciple!
anwhile, Lu Ye, having left the Task Hall, ascended to the peak of the Sect Leader Peak.
He ca to find the Red Cloud Fairy to inquire about so matters.
Arriving at the entrance of the Red Cloud Fairy’s abode, Lu Ye loudly asked, "Is Master ho? Disciple Lu Xuan requests an audience."
"Not ho!" The Red Cloud Fairy replied angrily from within the abode.
