Qian Wudang searched for Lin Yinxiu whose trail had vanished.
The sect master also pursued and attacked.
Leaving Lu Ye in place, deep in thought.
Clearly, it was Liew Yuei overwhelming him with power to capture and kill, so how did it turn into a thief from Ten Thousand Demons Ridge in the sect master's words?
With a shift in thought, Lu Ye had a sudden realization.
Ginger… truly gets spicier as it ages! This ti, Liew Yuei is likely dood!
Feeling the sect master's earnest protection, Lu Ye's heart was ward. With the light of the Golden Body Token glowing in mid-air being sowhat conspicuous, he descended quietly and waited.
Several miles away, Liew Yuei fled frantically, yet a strand of qi clung to her like a maggot, firmly locking onto her. The sharpness of that qi made even soone at her Divine Sea Realm secretly appalled.
Although both were in the Divine Sea Realm, she was at Level 7, yet she was aware of the huge gap between herself and the sect master of the Righteous Blood Sect.
This figure had already stood at the pinnacle of the Nine Provinces decades ago, and with decades of preservation and accumulation, no one knew what terrifying depths he had reached.
Thus, upon detecting the aura of Qian Wudang and Thang Yifeng, she had no choice but to abandon the captured Lu Ye and flee on her own.
The other side was relentless in pursuit.
How swift was the turn of fortune! Not too long ago, Lu Yiye was being chased by her, fleeing in panic like a stray dog, but now it was her turn.
How ironic.
The distance between them rapidly decreased, and despite being several miles apart, Liew Yuei could clearly feel Thang Yifeng's overwhelming fury behind her.
"Where do you think you're running to, miscreant!" An angry shout, like thunder, exploded near her ears, leaving her shocked and dizzy. Under the strong and pure ntal consciousness impact, Liew Yuei's vision swirled briefly, her form stumbled slightly.
This delay closed the distance between them by another ten miles.
Intense spirit force ripples emanated behind her. Turning back, Liew Yuei saw Thang Yifeng slowly extending a hand, directing it at her location and suddenly gripping it tightly.
With this grip, the world changed.
Liew Yuei imdiately felt the nature's spiritual energy around her solidify, transforming into an indescribable hindrance, leading her to feel as if stuck in a quagmire.
She shouted out, using all her strength to resist the invisible pressure from all directions, but as the sect master's hand tightened, she still let out a muffled groan, her qi turbulence destabilized.
Her body shot out of the space bound by spirit force, but before she could gasp for air, the sect master had already conjured a spirit force long whip in the Void.
He aid it at Liew Yuei and drew it forcefully through the air.
The whip was originally only a few yards long, but upon drawing it out, it rapidly absorbed Heaven and Earth spirit force, transforming in the blink of an eye into dozens of miles long, pressing down like a heavenly river towards Liew Yuei.
Liew Yuei was shocked, her hands swiftly changing seals, frantically stirring her spirit force, and instantly a budding flower appeared where she had been.
Her figure disappeared but was already wrapped by the spirit force flower. Who knows what kind of defensive magic and spells this were, but erected by one at the Divine Sea Realm, it was evidently extrely intricate.
The long whip struck down heavily on the flower bud.
The budding flower instantly shed its petals, Liew Yuei fell from it, cracks spreading across her mask, blood already leaking from the corner of her mouth beneath it.
Looking back, there was already no sign of Thang Yifeng, yet a great danger bore down from above.
She hurriedly raised her head, only to see the Righteous Blood Sect's sect master surrounded by abundant spirit force, blood Qi surging, showing no sign of old age, his aura as vigorous and splendid as a great sun.
He swooped down like an eagle, throwing a straight punch at Liew Yuei, his deep and vast starry-sky-like eyes filled with killing intent and anger.
He wanted to kill her!
Liew Yuei was shocked.
Originally, when Thang Yifeng pursued her, though panicked, she was not scared. Regardless, she was soone of the Tianyuan Sect, a mber of the Haotian Alliance, so she assud Thang Yifeng would at most chastise her but wouldn't genuinely wish to kill her.
This ti, she was the one who acted first, and if Thang Yifeng truly sought to discipline her, she would have no argunt, rely a matter of a lesser skill.
Furthermore, she had obscured her appearance using a mask this ti, and although it was effectively useless between them, as long as the mask remained, it didn't an completely tearing faces.
Thang Yifeng's personality, well understood by the Tianyuan Sect over the years, was not one to rashly tear faces with anyone and was known for considering the bigger picture.
But this ti, Thang Yifeng evidently had no such intentions to consider overall matters, utterly indifferent to the repercussions of such actions or if the Tianyuan Sect would retaliate; his fierce killing intent already clearly emphasized one thing.
At this mont, at this location, he intended to kill!
As these thoughts spun, Liew Yuei crazily urged her spirit force for self-protection and activated the protective array of her treasure garnt.
A punch crashed down.
The spirit force barrier was almost nonexistent, and the protective array of the treasure garnt lasted less than three breaths before shattering. The punch—harbored for several decades—finally sought to unleash all its fury today, letting those who dared act against the Righteous Blood Sect know that as long as Thang Yifeng lived, his disciples were under protection!
It heavily struck Liew Yuei's chest.
With a crunching sound...
Liew Yuei plunged straight to the ground, the blood from her mouth visible with the splinters of organs.
Boom...
Dust surged as Liew Yuei fell to the ground, creating a pit, her face mask almost shattered, revealing half of a miserable face.
Before she could get up, a large hand already covered her face, preventing the mask from further breaking.
A faint voice sounded near Liew Yuei's ear, sending chills down her spine: "Keep your mask intact. If it breaks, it will be very troubleso!"
Another fist was already raised, spirit force surging on the fist's surface.
Determined to kill without rcy!
But before the sect master could land this fatal punch, a thread of thunder suddenly materialized in the air, then turned into lightning, striking directly at the sect master's chest.
The sect master reacted with incredible speed, retreating swiftly while layer upon layer of spirit force barriers appeared in front, forming and breaking continuously.
The lightning gradually dimd, and the sect master retreated three miles before dissipating its power.
Looking up, he saw only a streak of thunder fleeing rapidly, within which was Liew Yuei's extrely embarrassed figure, along with sothing resembling a short spear.
"Destructive Lightning Spear!" The sect master stood still, not giving chase.
Because it was already uncatchable, Liew Yuei could never escape the sect master alone; he had countless ways to kill her, but with the power of the Destructive Lightning Spear, she fled so fast even he could not pursue her.
As a well-known sect-guarding treasure, the sect master could not be unfamiliar with the Destructive Lightning Spear, but he didn't expect Liew Yuei to carry it with her.
One could only say her luck was imnse; otherwise, she would surely be dead this ti.
It was indeed a pity not to execute the plan fully.
Watching Liew Yuei's fleeing direction, the sect master collected his killing intent, restoring his celestial, unworldly deanor.
Lightly flicking off non-existent dust from himself, the sect master soared into the air, returning the way he ca.
Lu Ye was still waiting at the original place, and before long, Qian Wudang returned with Xiao Xinghe and Lin Yinxiu. As a strong cultivator in the Divine Sea Realm, it was quite easy for him to find people, especially with the ability to communicate freely with Lin Yinxiu.
Seeing Lu Ye here alone, Qian Wudang imdiately had a bad premonition: "Where's Veteran Thang?"
Lu Ye reported honestly: "The sect master went to pursue the Ten Thousand Demons Ridge villain."
Qian Wudang's eye twitched: "Who told you that was a Ten Thousand Demons Ridge villain?"
"The sect master said so." Lu Ye replied confidently, "Besides, with her at the Divine Sea Realm chasing us True Lake Realm is she from the Ten Thousand Demons Ridge or the Haotian Alliance? Lin Yinxiu, don't you think so?"
Lin Yinxiu nodded like a pecking chick: "Captain is right!"
Looking at Lin Yinxiu's extrely obedient deanor, Qian Wudang suddenly felt a pain in his heart.
Suppressing the unpleasant feeling, he instructed: "You all wait here!"
Saying so, he soared into the sky.
He realized the seriousness of the situation, as Veteran Thang had clearly intended to kill Liew Yuei. Moreover, with Liew Yuei wearing a mask, when Thang claid she was a Ten Thousand Demons Ridge villain, no one could refute him.
But if Liew Yuei was truly killed, it would be difficult to handle, possibly affecting Veteran Thang's status in the Elder Council.
Strong cultivators in the Divine Sea Realm killing each other did no good for Veteran Thang, no matter the reason.
He only hoped he could still stop it in ti, hoped Liew Yuei could hold on a bit longer.
Not long after he took off, he saw Thang Yifeng leisurely flying back from the distance and hurried to et him, urgently asking: "Veteran Thang!"
"Alas!" The sect master sighed softly.
"That person... is she dead or alive?"
"She escaped." The sect master replied.
Qian Wudang let out a long breath: "Good, she escaped, that's good."
As long as that person wasn't dead, nothing serious would happen. It seed he was overthinking; with Veteran Thang's thods, if he truly wanted to kill her, she would have no chance of survival. Since she escaped, it was evidently due to Veteran Thang's rcy.
The sect master naturally saw through Qian Wudang's thoughts but didn't intend to explain, only saying: "Let's go."
The reason for not fully executing the plan was Liew Yuei possessing the Destructive Lightning Spear. Without this sect-guarding treasure, she'd undoubtedly be dead.
One could only say her luck was good.
This treasure was originally borrowed from the sect for overcoming challenges. With the busy war at Jinglan Lake Pass recently, there was no ti to return it, allowing her to keep it and unexpectedly save her life.
If it had been a few days later and she returned the treasure to the sect, the outco would differ greatly.
The two returned to where Lu Ye and others were, and from a distance, they saw Lu Ye surrounded by dazzling golden light, extrely radiant.
Lin Yinxiu looked extrely curious, repeatedly poking that layer of golden light with her hand, asking questions that made Lu Ye's heart ache, struggling to breathe.
That layer of golden light, worth a full two hundred thousand battle rits!
