Chu Zhiyuan nodded slightly, then ford a sealing with both hands, a golden net instantly materialized, enveloping the middle-aged man who had spoken earlier.
He had already pushed the secret technique to its limit, and his body was about to explode, intending to perish together with the Demon Clan expert in front of him.
He was already in an irreversible state, like a galloping horse sprinting forward, unable to stop.
The golden net descended, half of it sinking into his body, while the remaining part flickered on his body surface, the golden light circulating.
His boiling blood cald at once.
Chu Zhiyuan stepped forward, slapped his chest and back with his palms respectively.
Then, the golden net dissipated.
Chu Zhiyuan nodded in satisfaction.
The middle-aged man, overwheld with joy, hurriedly clasped his fists in gratitude, "Thank you, young master!"
"Mr. Huang, this is the Twelfth Prince Consort." Zhou Yifan said.
The middle-aged man, Huang Qiao, respectfully said, "So it’s the Prince Consort, a pleasure to et you. This great favor cannot be repaid!"
Chu Zhiyuan smiled, "No need to be polite, Mr. Huang. I couldn’t just stand by as you faced death without helping."
He looked at the other three middle-aged n.
All were Venerables.
Then he turned to Zhou Yifan.
Where on earth did Zhou Yifan find so many Venerables?
Zhou Yifan said, "Prince Consort, we discovered so important news and ca to verify it, unexpectedly running into these Demon Clan experts!... They’ve grown more rampant now!"
Chu Zhiyuan said, "They’re all searching for my wife,... you should return quickly, I’ve cleared away the Demon Clan on this journey path for now."
Zhou Yifan said, "Prince Consort, we heard that a Cave Mansion in this vicinity is about to erge."
Chu Zhiyuan frowned.
Zhou Yifan said, "This Cave Mansion might have been the residence of a Heavenly Person from a hundred thousand years ago."
Chu Zhiyuan said, "You’re not being fooled, right? The news from your Qianji Tower hasn’t been very reliable."
Zhou Yifan’s face flushed instantly, he said solemnly, "Prince Consort, the information from our Qianji Tower is absolutely reliable."
Chu Zhiyuan chuckled, shook his head.
Zhou Yifan said, "Wasn’t the last piece of news accurate?"
"What do you think?!" Chu Zhiyuan snorted, "That news was wrong."
The last ti he went to deal with Cheng Yunzheng, the information from Qianji Tower was incorrect.
If it weren’t for his Qinggong being good enough, and fast enough, Cheng Yunzheng would have indeed gotten away.
Zhou Yifan turned his head to look at the other four.
The faces of the four Venerables did not look good either.
Qianji Tower’s livelihood was based on information.
Without accurate information, Qianji Tower’s reputation would fall, losing its foundation.
Then, the Demon Sect would scatter, and Qianji Tower would fall apart.
Being the Tribute of Qianji Tower, residing there for a thousand years, how can they watch Qianji Tower crumble?
Chu Zhiyuan said, "Everyone makes mistakes, much more so when gathering such high-level information, one mistake is not a major fault."
Zhou Yifan’s face turned red with eyes full of anger.
He couldn’t tolerate Qianji Tower making such a mistake, especially when it involves a mistake in the information given to Chu Zhiyuan.
Chu Zhiyuan said, "You are surrounded, isn’t it soone’s deliberate trap?"
"...Doesn’t seem like it." Zhou Yifan steadied his mood, shook his head.
Chu Zhiyuan nodded, "That’s good, any leads?"
Zhou Yifan shook his head, "Haven’t found any clues yet and bumped into them."
"Then you better search quickly." Chu Zhiyuan said, "I’ll take my leave now."
After saying that, without waiting for Zhou Yifan to speak, he vanished, appearing a hundred ters away, then vanished again from their sight.
Zhou Yifan frowned, staring in the direction he disappeared.
The other four middle-aged n looked at the corpses displaying signs of atavism, sighed in relief, then grinned, their faces showing pain.
Previously ignored wounds now finally felt painful.
"Elder Zhou, this Prince Consort has such formidable movent techniques."
"Indeed."
"Is he truly as formidable as rumored?"
Zhou Yifan glanced at them, shook his head and sighed, "Even more formidable than rumored."
He felt he finally understood Chu Zhiyuan’s prowess, others perhaps were unaware.
"What a prodigy!"
"No wonder they are family, the Twelfth Princess is a prodigy too, ordinary people aren’t fit for her. And they say the couple has a great relationship."
"This ti we owe quite a debt."
"Escaping with our lives, we must repay the favor well."
"The Prince Consort and the Twelfth Princess are around, what can we help with?"
"With our old skills, what we can offer is mostly intel."
"He is a Prince of Yujing."
"Information can never be too plentiful or detailed."
"Indeed, that’s true."
Zhou Yifan sighed, looking in the direction Chu Zhiyuan disappeared.
...
Chu Zhiyuan swept through a thirty li radius.
Reappearing beside Li Cunren, they were gathered within the woods, forming a bonfire, roasting at while chatting.
"Brother-in-law, did you find them?"
"A group of Demon Clan experts surrounded five Venerables."
"Five Venerables?" The crowd curiously looked over.
Li Cunren asked, "How many Demon Clan experts? Five Venerables aren’t easy to deal with, right?"
"Nearly a hundred." Chu Zhiyuan said, "Among the Demon Clan were five Venerable Level experts, they probably used the Jade and Stone Burning technique first."
It was evident Zhou Yifan and the others were injured by the Demon Clan experts using the perish together technique.
Otherwise, five Venerables wouldn’t be so easily annihilated, if unable to win, they could at least escape.
Being wounded and unable to escape, they resorted to using Jade and Stone Burning, hoping to drag the Demon Clan down.
"These Demon Clan experts wreak great havoc!" Li Cunren frowned.
Chu Zhiyuan said, "They were unlucky to encounter the radiance usually found with elites."
The Demon Clan experts who initially assassinated Li Miaotan and himself were indeed elites.
Almost every three or five small teams had a Venerable.
The current Demon Clan experts, however, were far inferior to the previous ones.
But Zhou Yifan and his group encountered five Venerables, undeniably unfortunate.
Perhaps these Demon Clan experts had a different status, or another target?
Could it be these Demon Clan experts also received the news about the Cave Mansion?
So is the news true or false?
He frowned in deep thought.
"Brother-in-law, co, have so at!" Li Cunren handed a skewer of roasted at to Chu Zhiyuan.
Chu Zhiyuan accepted it without saying thanks, unreservedly biting off a piece.
"What was brother-in-law thinking?"
"I heard so news just now."
"Oh—?"
Chu Zhiyuan then shared the news with Li Cunren.
He didn’t think the Cave Mansion was especially important, moreover, could it be more important than a Spiritual Treasure?
"Cave Mansion..."
Li Cunren looked at the other Venerables.
"Haven’t heard of it." The Venerables shook their heads.
"News about Cave Mansions pops up every day, truth mixed with falsehood, hard to discern clearly."
"Indeed," a Venerable interjected, "These Cave Mansions are often ruined by the passage of ti, even if opened, they’re not very useful."
"It’s rumored to be a Heavenly Person’s residence." Chu Zhiyuan said.
"Heavenly Person?!" The Venerables’ eyes lit up instantly, looking at each other in amazent.
Chu Zhiyuan chuckled, "A Heavenly Person’s Cave Mansion, worth exploring, right?"
"If truly a Heavenly Person, it would be extrely valuable."
"Heavenly Person’s Cave Mansions often withstand the erosion of ti, containing precious items!"
"Many of the Dynasty’s heritages co from Heavenly Person Cave Mansions."
"Better to believe it exists, Prince Consort, where is it located?"
"Over fifty li from here." Chu Zhiyuan said, "Mr. Feng interested?"
"Prince Consort, if truly a Heavenly Person Cave Mansion, even the Spirit Venerable would be interested."
"This matter is of great importance, is the Court oblivious? The Heavenly Palace should be aware, right?"
They looked at Li Cunren.
Li Cunren solemnly furrowed his brows, "I haven’t heard this news either."
