Ha, Chen Tuan, I really didn't expect that after tens of thousands of years without seeing you, your strength has improved quite a bit.
The Corpse Emperor retracted all his bones, and the scattered man instantly beca whole again.
Wow, heck, how is this done?
Chen Tuan couldn't wrap his head around it.
It's one thing to dismantle and reassemble bones, but for those shattered bones to beco as good as new, Chen Tuan was beginning to question life.
"Old monster, your demon technique isn't bad, quite robust indeed."
Chen Tuan's words couldn't be distinguished whether they were praise or disdain.
His focus was solely on striking the Corpse Emperor's bones. Never did he imagine the Corpse Emperor's bones could be shattered and restored.
From this perspective, no matter how he fights the Corpse Emperor, the Corpse Emperor can always get better, while Chen Tuan's strength rapidly declines.
"This is just an appetizer, let show you sothing better next."
The Corpse Emperor was completely angered by Chen Tuan.
There was no so-called camaraderie between him and Chen Tuan; it was all forged through fighting. Since Chen Tuan ca uninvited, he could only take matters into his own hands.
Chen Tuan rooted himself to the ground, fearing the Corpse Emperor would unleash another big move, instantly knocking Chen Tuan down.
He fixed his gaze on the Corpse Emperor's every move.
The Corpse Emperor closed his eyes, reciting incantations under his breath.
"Don't listen, don't listen, the turtle chanting scriptures."
Chen Tuan covered his ears, refusing to listen to the things that couldn't be heard.
The world grew increasingly dark, an ominous premonition that Chen Tuan's instincts never missed.
He slled an indescribable fishy odor, growing stronger and stronger, until he saw swarms of Blood Bats flying from the distant horizon.
"Damn it!"
The skyline was filled with Blood Bats; winning was hardly possible for Chen Tuan!
Tens of thousands of bats quickly flew in front of Tang Rao.
They swirled around Tang Rao, and so curious ones even wanted to taste Tang Rao first.
"These little darlings I raised with care, usually like eating a bit of human at, drinking human blood. Sadly, they haven't had fresh humans for a long ti, I bet they'll really like you."
"Hehehehehe."
He laughed wickedly again.
"Is that so, Blood Bats? Just these alone think they can eat up?"
Chen Tuan was truly frightened, but he had grown up surrounded by fear, what's there to be afraid of now?
As the Blood Bats flew towards him, fire started to erge all over Chen Tuan's body.
Flas enveloped Chen Tuan entirely, the blazing fire already burning away his clothes.
"Blood Bats, go ahead and enjoy your feast."
"Hehehehehe."
Corpse Emperor felt sothing off after saying this, sensing a blazing heat ahead.
His little creatures feared fire the most, could it be that Chen Tuan even knew this weakness?
No, it's impossible.
The Corpse Emperor used the bats' radar to generate an image.
Seeing Chen Tuan turning into a ball of fire, he was so enraged he dropped his stick.
"Chen Tuan, you're truly despicable."
The Blood Bats attacked, you protect yourself, I don't mind, but you chased my bat darlings and burned them all to death, what do you an by this?
The Corpse Emperor only saw Chen Tuan weaving through the Blood Bats, wherever he went, the Blood Bats turned into dead at.
"So we are evenly matched. Now that I know how the Blood Bats ca to be, I know where your lair is. Are you going to release Xiao Yun yourself, or do I need to find Xiao Yun myself?"
To the north is the Corpse Emperor's lair, apart from there, with the Corpse Emperor's nature, he wouldn't find another place far from his lair to raise so many darlings.
"Hahaha, you're talking about that little girl, also wondering if she's still alive. In the western cave, if she's lucky, she might still be saved, hahaha."
The Corpse Emperor revealed a dented laugh.
Chen Tuan chose to believe the Corpse Emperor's words, Xiao Yun had no grudge against the Corpse Emperor, he knew if he didn't speak the truth, then today, he and Chen Tuan would fight to the death.
That outco wasn't what the Corpse Emperor wanted.
Chen Tuan vanished in front of the Corpse Emperor using Earth Shield.
The Corpse Emperor said Xiao Yun was in the west, there must be traces of Xiao Yun there. The aura on the Corpse Emperor is vastly different from Xiao Yun, making it quite easy to find.
Soon, Chen Tuan found Xiao Yun.
The outside of this supposed cave was blood-soaked, and inside was littered with corpses.
As the Corpse Emperor said, Xiao Yun was treated as food for so of the Blood Bats. Fortunately, Chen Tuan made an early decision to find Xiao Yun early; otherwise, there wouldn't have been a chance for Xiao Yun to survive.
"Xiao Yun, co with !"
There were still a few baby Blood Bats gnawing on Xiao Yun's shoulders, and at this mont, Xiao Yun was barely alive.
Chen Tuan took out a fourth-grade Heart Rescue Pill from the Space Ring and directly shoved it into Xiao Yun's mouth.
He injected Dao Immortal Energy into Xiao Yun's body, and soon, Xiao Yun's aura finally stabilized.
Chen Tuan dared not delay, he carried Xiao Yun using Earth Shield and left the Corpse Emperor's territory.
As long as he knew where the Corpse Emperor was, he wouldn't have trouble finding him in the future.
The journey back wasn't as simple as the arrival, entering the Kao Shan Sect, Chen Tuan was already near exhaustion.
By then, night had fallen, and the entire Kao Shan Sect was peaceful and serene.
On the road, there were occasionally patrolling sect disciples, but due to the late hour, they couldn't muster much energy.
Chen Tuan appeared without ti to find a good position, he hugged a blood-drenched Xiao Yun, suddenly appearing in front of the patrol team, almost getting mistaken by the patrol mbers.
"Who!"
The patrol team imdiately beca alert.
"I am Chen Tuan."
Chen Tuan announced himself.
Seeing that it was indeed Tang Rao's Grandmaster, the patrol team relaxed.
"Where is your Sect Master now?"
Chen Tuan's proficiency in crafting the Immortal Elixir wasn't as good as Tang Rao's, this much he had to admit.
A fourth-grade elixir could only preserve life, Xiao Yun's injuries were severe, requiring at least a fifth-grade elixir to achieve healing.
She was just a girl barely over ten, with a promising future ahead, if she were to be disfigured, her entire life would be ruined.
"The Sect Master is still in the study handling affairs, do you need us to notify him?"
Unsure of Chen Tuan's intentions, and not daring to offend Tang Rao's only ntor, the patrol team hesitantly mustered the courage to communicate with Chen Tuan.
"No need, I'll go myself."
In the blink of an eye, Chen Tuan appeared again, already in front of Tang Rao.
"Tang Rao, I rescued Xiao Yun back, but she's seriously injured now, requiring a fifth-grade Immortal Elixir to save her. Can you do it?"
Chen Tuan was taking a chance. Xiao Yun's injuries were so severe that ordinarily, survival was unlikely, sohow she managed to hold on until Chen Tuan rescued her, only then did she slightly relax.
"A fifth-grade Immortal Elixir? I've never tried such a high-grade one, would it suddenly beco an explosive pill furnace?"
Tang Rao watched Xiao Yun, who looked neither human nor ghost, his nerves tensed sharply.
"Enough nonsense, tell if you can or can't, is there any way to save Xiao Yun."
This was the crux.
If Xiao Yun couldn't be saved, Liu Mingyue's unborn son with Chen Tuan would likely not survive either.
Isn't this an international joke on Chen Tuan?
