Chapter 2336 Escape

The young man Yuren stood with a stunned face, seemingly in complete shock. In his hand, he held some sort of object that he was ready to throw once again. And with how scared he seemed, he wouldn't care who he threw it at. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

One of the Immortals got back up, ready to attack. The rest remained on the ground, seemingly stunned by the explosion. Pearl got up as well —now no longer burdened by any of the Spirit attacks— and prepared his attack.

Space shrunk around him and he jabbed his spear into the man's head. The Immortal didn't realize he had been attacked until he was.

Pearl's attack wasn't strong enough to wound him terribly, but it did stop him from attacking Yuren, who stood by the porch, all stunned.

"Yuren! Get out of here," Pearl shouted, quickly flying back toward him to defend him. He could sense Momo somewhere close by as well. She was hiding.

"Senior Whitepearl, I can help," Yuren said. Pearl glanced at his hand. Now that he saw it, it was some sort of formation-based artifact. "Look out!" Yuren shouted, throwing what he had in his hand toward the other side.

Pearl turned around in time to see the one Immortal he had hurt earlier come toward them. The man tried to push aside what was thrown toward him, only to have it explode right next to him. The explosion shook the courtyard. Pearl didn't even have to protect the young man. There were layers of barrier around him, protecting him from even having a hair on his head get singed.

"Time to go," Pearl said and pulled the young man along and went to find Momo. Momo and Moss remained in the room, shaking with fear of what was happening. Pearl grabbed them all and teleported as far away as he could. They appeared high in the air, toward the edge of the city.

Pearl didn't know what it was he should do at this very moment, but his first thought was that he needed to go find someone who could help him. With so many people attacking him, it was only right for him to find some authority figure to help him.

He was already found by the Immortals. Their senses reached him immediately. Even when he had a headstart, they were already on his tail.

Pearl let go of the two, letting Yuren help Momo while he fell down first. He flipped through the air and landed on his feet upright. He quickly looked up and grabbed the two as they came down tumbling as well.

At that height, Yuren was still not strong enough to fly due to Heaven's restriction on flight. "Are you two okay?" Pearl asked them first before looking around to see where they were. There was an expanse of land without any buildings on it that belonged to the Wineweed guild that led to their alchemy gardens. Pearl and the rest had arrived there. It was good that they had come here as the people with authority were all from this guild. Still, it wasn't all over just yet. As it turned out, not everyone had been affected by the Qi-restricting pulse.

The ones that were weaker and lagged behind were now arriving behind them and coming right toward Pearl and the others.

"You two, run," Pearl said. "Find someone to help you. Someone should be coming anytime now."

"What about you?" Yuren asked.

Pearl held onto his spear tightly. "I'll hold them back. Now go."

Pearl dashed forward without any more words and jumped through the sky to charge at the people who came for him. His Qi was returning, but it was slow. The effect on his body was going to take a bit longer to settle. If he had the Spirit Reversal technique active the entire time, he might've gotten out of it all right. But without it, he had fallen into the same problem as everyone else.

However, even without Qi, as a White Tiger, he was a massive threat to everyone.

The woman at the front attacked, but Pearl dove through the attack using the power of his Body and his Spear to push past it until he was right on top of the attacker.

The attacker formed a large lotus in front of her to protect herself, but Pearl's spear still pierced through it and stabbed her right through the chest.

The woman's body exploded in the air, and the two of them fell back down.

And while the woman's body thumped lifelessly on the ground, Pearl landed on one foot and immediately charged forward once again.
