"Puff!"
The blade’s light sliced down, blood splattered everywhere.
The Blood-Drinking Mad Blade, slashing through the air, effortlessly severed the Lightning Swords Wu Shufeng had raised high, continuing its montum to strike Wu Shufeng.
Within the Inner Court of the Soul Summoning Hall, a Foundation Establishnt Expert, under Fang Bai’s one stroke, perished gracefully.
Sun Lin watched, utterly stunned, as Wu Shufeng, who had just chased her into hiding, was killed in one stroke by the stranger in white. It felt like a dream.
A white figure drifted down from the sky; it was the unexpected stranger dressed in white.
The Blood Blade, which had slain Wu Shufeng, was no longer in his hand, evidently stored away in his Space Ring.
"You..."
Sun Lin took a few steps forward, her eyes sparkling with curiosity, and asked, "Why did you help ?"
Fang Bai grinned, winked at Sun Lin, and said, "Little girl, don’t flatter yourself! I just said it, I just don’t like the look of the Soul Summoning Hall. I didn’t do it to help you."
Sun Lin’s face turned red, sowhat disappointed in her heart, she bit her lip and said, "Then can you tell ...who are you?"
Fang Bai laughed and said, "What, are you thinking about repaying the saving of your life?"
Sun Lin nodded.
Fang Bai pointed to Wu Shufeng’s body and said, "My aim was to eliminate her; saving you was just a side act. So there’s no need to repay."
After a pause, he teased, "Besides, even if you want to repay , what good things can you provide?"
Sun Lin froze, thinking that what he said was true, he easily slew Wu Shufeng, a veteran Foundation Establishnt expert, she really had nothing to repay him with.
"I...I..."
Sun Lin was at a loss, not knowing what to say.
"I was joking, don’t take it seriously! As for who I am...I won’t tell you!"
Fang Bai laughed heartily, turned to Wu Shufeng’s corpse, reached out and grabbed her Spatial Ring, forcibly broke the Formation of the Spatial Ring, infused a wisp of Spiritual Energy into it, his eyes brightened, murmuring, "Unexpectedly, a small Foundation Establishnt expert, stored quite a bit of cultivation resources! Hmm, this ti I’ve made a small fortune..."
Fang Bai’s gaze then fell on the cut Purple Thunder Sword and Lightning Snake Sword, frowned a little, casually collected the broken swords as well, thinking, "After all, they are holy grade Spirit Artifacts with lightning attributes, it’s a pity to throw them away. I’ll take them back and refine them, soday give them to Ruhua to use."
Sun Lin’s gaze followed Fang Bai’s movents, showing curiosity, admiration, and frustration.
"We’re about the sa age, but the difference in strength is too great! In front of him, there’s a feeling of being overshadowed!"
Sun Lin thought secretly.
"Hey, here’s the Twin Pupil Eagle’s Spirit Core! I’m not interested in these things, it’s yours!"
Fang Bai’s voice suddenly sounded in her ears, Sun Lin exclaid and looked over, Fang Bai was tossing a fist-sized Spirit Core towards her.
Sun Lin instinctively caught it, looking down to see it was indeed the Spirit Core of the Twin Pupil Eagle.
The Twin Pupil Eagle was severely wounded in the battle with Wu Shufeng, Fang Bai casually finished it off, taking its Spirit Core, also sparing it from pain.
A Spirit Beast comparable to a human Foundation Establishnt Realm is quite valuable, at least worth exchanging for tens of thousands of Spirit Stones, but it was of little use to Fang Bai, so he gifted it to Sun Lin.
Sun Lin was delighted in her heart, just as she was about to thank Fang Bai, the ground beneath her feet trembled slightly, followed by the roar of spirit beasts.
"Not good, it’s a beast horde!"
Fang Bai’s expression changed dramatically, guessing that the earlier battle’s commotion had been too great, inciting the wrath of many nearby Spirit Beasts, now charging towards them.
An enraged beast horde is extrely terrifying; if surrounded, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Hearing "beast horde", Sun Lin was instantly paralyzed with fear.
From the commotion of the beast horde and the roars, Sun Lin deduced that at least a hundred gigantic Spirit Beasts were charging towards them, rapidly closing the distance. If they delayed even a mont, they might be swallowed by the beast horde, never to escape.
They had already penetrated a few hundred miles into the Myriad Beasts Mountain Range, where Spirit Beasts are comparable to human Foundation Establishnt experts, hence a hundred beasts approaching equaled a hundred Foundation Establishnt experts.
How could Sun Lin not be afraid?
"Run!"
Fang Bai grabbed the still stunned Sun Lin, ford Spirit Energy Wings, and soared into the sky, flying towards the direction of the White Bone Gully.
"You can let go now. I can fly myself..."
After flying dozens of miles, Sun Lin noticed Fang Bai’s breathing becoming heavier, guessing he was exhausting too much Spiritual Energy. She struggled a bit and loudly said.
When she ford the Spirit Energy Wings, Fang Bai released her, pointed forward, and said, "White Bone Gully is just over thirty miles from here, you head there yourself! Farewell!"
"Hey, how do you know I’m going to White Bone Gully?"
Sun Lin raised her hand to call out Fang Bai, however, he ignored her. His Spirit Energy Wings flapped, and he was a thousand feet away, leaving her unable to catch up.
"Suddenly appearing... suddenly leaving... he truly is a strange person..."
Sun Lin looked in the direction Fang Bai disappeared, feeling a bit lost, she murmured to herself.
"I wonder if Junior Brother Fang and the others have reached White Bone Gully. I should go check first..."
Lingering in the air dazedly for several breaths, Sun Lin finally rembered Fang Bai and the others, and then flew towards White Bone Gully.
...
Fang Bai, after taking a large detour, landed in a small valley near the entrance of White Bone Gully, changed back to his original clothes and appearance, and appeared before Sun Lin and the others who were waiting at the entrance of White Bone Gully.
Sun Lin had arrived at the White Bone Gully entrance before Fang Bai. After learning about the situation from Shi Ming and the others, the four waited there for Fang Bai.
Sun Lin had decided that if they didn’t see Fang Bai after waiting for two hours, they would return together to search for him.
Her reasoning was, being a group of five, they shared fortunes and hardships, and they must not abandon any teammate.
At the very least, alive they must see the person, dead they must see the corpse.
"Junior Brother Fang, you’re finally back!"
"Senior Sister Sun has been here for a while, didn’t you two et on the way?"
"Haha, you must have taken different paths!"
"As long as you’re safe..."
...
Seeing Fang Bai return safely, Sun Lin and the others breathed a sigh of relief.
"You rascal, I told you to stay here with Junior Brother Shi and the others, why didn’t you listen?"
Sun Lin rolled her eyes at Fang Bai, speaking with exasperation.
Fang Bai said, "Senior Sister Sun, I wanted to lend you a helping hand! I didn’t expect you could escape from being surrounded by several Soul Summoning Hall disciples. It must be your great luck and destiny!"
