Chapter 1789: Chapter 1789: Su Linglong’s Guilt
Watching Qin Ming and the five Fire Cloud Sect disciples leave, Fang Bai led Fang Yun, Baili Mingyue, Niu Ben, Xiong Yingxiong, Wu De, and Lightning Mink, flying to a dense bamboo forest hundreds of miles away.
Fang Bai waved his hand to set up the Concealnt Formation within the bamboo forest, isolating the Divine Sense of the three major powerhouses — Leng Qiushuang, Leng Qiuxue, and Zizai Monk from Love Severing Tower. Then he released Su Linglong from the Five Elents Space Ring.
“Fang Bai, have we already gotten rid of the Love Severing Tower people?”
Su Linglong, realizing she was not inside the Immortal Tablet Secret Realm and couldn’t see her fellow sect mbers of Love Severing Tower, felt a mix of surprise and joy.
Fang Bai shook his head and said, “The two Tower Masters of Love Severing Tower suspect your disappearance is related to . After leaving the Immortal Tablet Secret Realm, they’ve been tailing us. It’s easier said than done to get rid of them!”
Upon hearing this, Fang Yun and the others were all taken aback.
Su Linglong’s expression changed slightly as she said worriedly, “Then… what should we do? Both the Main Tower Master and the Second Tower Master have Heavenly Tribulation cultivation levels of six, they’re incredibly powerful! If they find out I was taken by you, the two of us… we’re likely dood!”
Thinking of the ans by which Love Severing Tower punishes disciples who have affairs with n from the outside world, Su Linglong’s pretty face turned pale, trembling in fear.
Fang Bai said, “It’s not that easy for them to take our lives!”
After a pause, he added, “But, currently, it’s not only the two Tower Masters of Love Severing Tower who want my life, but also those three from Zizai Monk.”
Fang Yun’s beautiful eyes widened suddenly and she exclaid, “Little brother, those three from Zizai Monk seem quite kind-hearted! They even helped you scare away the two Tower Masters of Love Severing Tower earlier. Why would they want your life? Could you have misunderstood them?”
Wu De rolled his eyes and coughed a few tis, saying, “Could it be because of the saying, ‘A commoner is innocent, yet harboring a prized jade makes them guilty’?”
Baili Mingyue, who was incredibly intelligent, tilted her head and thought for a mont before clapping her hands and saying, “Oh, I understand now. Fang Bai, when you clashed with the Main Tower Master of Love Severing Tower, you revealed the Blood-Drinking Mad Blade, which attracted a lot of attention. Those three from Zizai Monk probably also coveted your Blood Blade, right?”
Fang Bai laughed and said, “Mingyue is perceptive and observant, worthy of praise! Yes, those three from Zizai Monk show a façade of righteousness and hostility towards evil, but they are indeed coveting my Blood-Drinking Mad Blade, intending to lure into complacency!”
Previously in the Immortal Tablet Secret Realm, Fang Yun and the others heard many powerhouses discussing the three from Zizai Monk, knowing their strength far exceeded that of the two Tower Masters of Love Severing Tower. Now, with these five major powerhouses tracking and tailing them, just thinking about it sent chills down their spines.
“Who would’ve thought those three elders, looking kind and benevolent, could actually harbor greed!”
Fang Yun murmured to herself, truly unable to associate the three from Zizai Monk with villains, yet she had no choice but to trust her little brother’s words.
Fang Bai sneered, “Sister, don’t be deceived by the appearance of those three from Zizai Monk. They’re not good people at all! Each of them has taken at least a thousand lives, or at least eight hundred. They’ve also humiliated many won! Those three, death would not be enough for them!”
Fang Bai’s sensing abilities were far superior to those of Fang Yun and the others; he could sense the bloodthirsty and lustful aura from those three of Zizai Monk, which Fang Yun and the others could not detect, so their impression of those three was just superficial, unaware that they were truly evil.
Upon hearing Fang Bai ntion the nurous lives those three from Zizai Monk had taken, Fang Yun and the others all gasped, thinking that if they were truly righteous and compassionate, they wouldn’t have killed so many people. So Fang Bai’s words seed markedly true, and those three were nothing more than wicked hypocrites.
Su Linglong felt that the situation had developed because of her, causing her deep guilt and self-bla.
“If it weren’t for , Fang Bai wouldn’t have clashed with the Tower Masters and wouldn’t have revealed the Blood-Drinking Mad Blade to contend with them. And if those three from Zizai Monk hadn’t seen the Blood-Drinking Mad Blade, they wouldn’t have beco greedy and murderous towards Fang Bai, possibly implicating all of you. I… I am sorry for causing you trouble…”
Su Linglong furrowed her brows, speaking softly.
She thought if Fang Yun, Baili Mingyue, and the others suffered great hardship because of this, she would feel worthy of a thousand deaths, making her eyes instantly redden in anxiety.
After reincarnating in the mortal world, Fang Bai’s first close confidante beca Su Linglong. Seeing her tearful deanor, he felt compassionate and embraced her slender waist, softly comforting her.
“Linglong, you don’t need to bla yourself, actually. Those three from Zizai Monk did not just follow us out of greed for the Blood-Drinking Mad Blade…”
Fang Bai suddenly spoke.
“Then… what’s the reason?”
Su Linglong asked, puzzled.
Fang Yun, Baili Mingyue, and the others also looked at Fang Bai, waiting for his explanation.
Fang Bai spoke solemnly, “I observed that those three from Zizai Monk are not only quick to kill, but also fond of won, often using the Pri Yin of won to boost their cultivation levels. I suspect they’ve set their sights on you three…”
As Fang Bai ntioned “you three,” his gaze swept over Su Linglong, Baili Mingyue, and Fang Yun, making it clear he was referring to them, causing their faces to flush and each to spit angrily.
Baili Mingyue said with fury, “So those three are just a bunch of old perverts? No wonder I felt their gaze was sowhat odd… yuck! Next ti I see them, I’ll gouge out their eyes!”
Su Linglong and Fang Yun recalled how, in the Immortal Tablet Secret Realm, those three from Zizai Monk indeed seed to glance at them intentionally or unintentionally. At the ti, it felt inconsequential, but confirming it with Fang Bai’s words, it indeed seed odd.
Wu De scratched his head and said, “Two Heavenly Tribulations level six, three Heavenly Tribulations level seven… Damn, being targeted by these five powerhouses, we can’t escape nor fight them. What’s the next step?”
Lightning Mink gently waved his folding fan, nodding with vigor, “When soldiers co, block them, when water cos, cover it with earth! Just fight them!”
Wu De rolled his eyes and said, “You talk so easily! Not to ntion Heavenly Tribulations level seven experts, even battling a Heavenly Tribulations level six expert, one slap from them could kill us all!”
Lightning Mink retorted dissatisfied, “You, fat Taoist, why do you encourage others while demoralizing yourself?”
Wu De twisted his neck and said, “You, Little Mink, just love to boast and play hero! Sure, you’re fast, when things turn sour, you might escape, but we can’t!”
Lightning Mink spat, “Fat Taoist, am I the kind of person who would abandon friends and run in danger?”
Wu De said, “You are!”
Seeing the two bickering, Fang Bai said, “Are you two done? If so, can you listen to for a mont?”
Wu De and Lightning Mink looked at each other defiantly, then said in unison, “Go ahead!”
