465: Chapter 249 Vengeful Spirit Essence Blood (Subscription Request)_4 465: Chapter 249 Vengeful Spirit Essence Blood (Subscription Request)_4 Chu Xisheng was mystified, but now was clearly not the ti to ponder these things.
He cast a sideways glance upstream.
The Blood Wind Thieves were still encircling and closing in, and those high-grade martial practitioners from Tianping Army were also madly rushing over.
However, after ‘Ghost Shadow Blade’ Lv Han and ‘Blood Rain Sword’ Yu Chiyang were seriously injured, these people obviously beca more cautious and defensive.
Their pursuit had slowed down a bit, and none dared to approach rashly.
“Let’s go!”
Chu Xisheng once again activated the Heluo Fish’s water escape divine ability and continued downstream.
Ahead was Linhai County.
At the border of Linhai County and Xiushui County, there was a lake called ‘Prince Lake’.
The lake wasn’t big; it stretched only about three hundred li from North to South, and around a hundred li from East to West.
However, this lake was enough for him to shake off his pursuers.
As long as there was no one to relentlessly pursue him like Yu Chiyang did, once the Heluo Fish entered the lake, it was like a dragon returning to the sea.
About fifteen minutes later, Chu Xisheng saw the vast lake shrouded in mist from afar.
At this mont, behind him, ‘Mountain Cone’ Zhu Xueyi, ‘Blood Wind Sword’ Li Daogui, and an unknown fifth-grade commander, along with more than twenty others of the sixth-grade or above, were all trailing far behind at a distance of several miles.
‘Ghost Shadow Blade’ Lv Han and ‘Blood Rain Sword’ Yu Chiyang were among them, both of their faces deathly pale, their chests soaked with blood.
The two had only taken healing pills and done a hasty job of treating their wounds.
However, their injuries were severe, and with Chu Xisheng’s Three Phases Blade Intent lingering in their bodies, which was difficult to expel, their combat power was reduced by half.
As Chu Xisheng drew closer to Prince Lake, everyone behind him looked increasingly grave and worried.
They all knew that once Chu Xisheng plunged into Prince Lake, he could rely on the Heluo Fish’s divine ability to lose them in a very short ti.
But all they could do was follow from a distance.
One reason was the incredible speed of the Heluo Fish’s water escape, which few among them could match.
The second was the extre fearsoness of Chu Xisheng’s combined combat power with the Five-tailed White Mink; even a strong opponent like ‘Ghost Shadow Blade’ Lv Han couldn’t last a single round against them, which filled them with extre trepidation.
The third reason was that ‘Eight-Ard Vajra Sword’ Bu Yancheng and Ye Zhiqiu were following closely behind, continuously harassing and restraining them, preventing them from going all out.
Chu Xisheng’s tense mind also relaxed sowhat.
He asked with curiosity, “Bai Xiaozhao, why do you call Grandpa?
Isn’t that what they call a father over at Lishan?”
“It is father!” Bai Xiaozhao tilted its little head: “You saved my life, and I’ve absorbed a lot of your essence blood.
This is a debt of nurturing and rebirth.
Born without parents, I consider you as a father.”
Chu Xisheng’s thoughts were complicated, on one hand moved by Bai Xiaozhao’s gratitude, on the other hand quite embarrassed.
How old was he that he had beco a father already?
Chu Xisheng shook his head: “Don’t call Grandpa, if you’re willing, call brother in the future.”
Bai Xiaozhao pondered for a mont, then nodded: “That works too!”
Bai Xiaozhao regarded Lady Yu, who had raised her, as a mother, but Lady Yu also allowed her to call her sister.
There was nothing wrong with that—
“I owe you my life today,” Chu Xisheng said gratefully: “But how co your cultivation is so high now?
I rember during the ti in the Coastal Secret Realm, you were only at the Ninth Grade.
You’re already at the upper Sixth Grade, aren’t you?
Advancing six ranks in half a year, plus your talent, you have the bloodline of the Seven-tailed Wind Beast but already possess five tails!”
—This was undoubtedly the level of a human Super Genius, the so-called ‘Emperor Bloodline’ of the demon clan!
If Bai Xiaozhao were human, she would be able to enter the top sixty of the Qingyun General List!
Her current combat power had already surpassed that of Lu Luan, who was below the Sixth Grade.
“It’s the ‘Emperor’s Liquid’!
It was around the New Year’s celebration, during our demon clan’s once-every-sixty-years ‘Emperor’s Liquid’ event.
You must have heard of it.”
Bai Xiaozhao raised her head slightly: “I got lucky this ti and sohow caught the favor of Lishan Old Mother, who allowed to absorb the Emperor’s Liquid at the core of the Array Altar, and I got nearly five hundred years’ worth of demonic power in one go.”
Chu Xisheng raised his eyebrows upon hearing this.
He had certainly heard of the demon clan’s ‘Emperor’s Liquid’, but he had not thought in this direction, nor did he know that the ‘Emperor’s Liquid’ was so miraculous.
“After the ‘Emperor’s Liquid’ event, I wanted to return to Xiushui to repay the great debt of gratitude to you, brother.
However, the demonic power I received was too vast; it took three months just to practice and control it.”
Bai Xiaozhao held her little head high and continued: “By the end of the third month, I returned to Xiushui, but by that ti, brother, your fa had spread far and wide.
Your sword skill was invincible among your peers, and you were surrounded by experts.
I thought I would never have the chance to repay the debt of rebirth I owed you, brother.
But then I heard you were looking all over for Vengeful Spirit Essence Blood, so I returned to Lishan and found many of these in Old Mother’s treasury.
I borrowed money from Lady Yu to exchange two drops for you but never found the right opportunity to give the Vengeful Spirit Essence Blood to you.”
Upon hearing the words ‘Vengeful Spirit Essence Blood’, Chu Xisheng’s pupils constricted slightly; he stopped paying attention to Bai Xiaozhao’s following words.
Bai Xiaozhao had actually brought him Vengeful Spirit Essence Blood!
