No one can be certain about the future.
If Luo Bang, the Blood Blade Taoist, and others escaped this time, what about a hundred and eighty years later?
“I hope you can still be alive by then, then and only then, would I let you know why you’re running today,” the puppet body whispered in its heart, with no intentions of pursuing them because its soul force had not fully recovered. At present, the puppet body was only equivalent to the strength of the sixth layer of the Foundation Establishment Realm. Given its limited power and the risk involved in employing such a treasured entity as the soul to hunt down dangerous figures like Luo Bang, the chase was deemed too risky and not worth it.
Being able to scare Luo Bang away had already achieved Su Yu’s purpose.
However, Su Yu wasn’t aware that Luo Bang wasn’t merely scared away; he had been scared out of his wits.
He would probably detour around Cang Mountain whenever he passed by in the future.
The puppet body gazed thoughtfully at the direction where the three had fled, particularly the last aura. Suddenly, a familiar name came into its mind: Su Qingyi!?
The thought stirred the puppet body with a strong impulse to pursue them.
But looking at the three auras that had already disappeared into the distance, the puppet body let out a sigh of resignation after some hesitation.
“The other one seems to have the same aura as Luo Bang, both at the ninth layer of the Foundation Establishment Realm?” The puppet body frowned in contemplation and guessed, “Could it be Bai Yan, the Pill Master from Wu Yan
Mountain?”
He wasn’t sure.
But of late, Bai Yan was the only one in the Yunjian Sect territory he knew who was at the ninth layer of the Foundation Establishment Realm with ties to the demonic path. Bai Yan had sacrificed thirteen Foundation Establishment-level cultivators, most of them alchemists, causing quite a stir in the Yunjian Sect territory.
If Bai Yan was indeed in cahoots with Luo Bang, that explained many things.
The Blood Blade Taoist Luo Bang, Bai Yan from Wu Yan Mountain, and Su Qingyi, who had joined the demonic path.
Unexpectedly, these three had joined forces.
As Su Yu pondered on this, a thought crossed his mind: “Could it be that Luo
Bang and Su Qingyi contributed to Bai Yan’s sacrifice of thirteen at the
Foundation Establishment realm?”
“They showed up near Cang Mountain and seemed to have some plans for the mountain. Could it be—no, it should be—Su Qingyi intends to sacrifice the entire Su Family in order to firmly establish his demonic path?”
“Su Qingyi
Anger swelled within Su Yu, seething and uncontrollable.
Eventually, Su Yu managed to control his emotions.
The puppet body silently scanned the area outside of Cang Mountain. Once he confirmed that Luo Bang and the others had indeed fled, he quietly returned to
Cang Mountain.
Back inside Cang Mountain.
Su Peng, Su Bin, and several others, as well as the group of Loose Cultivators and cultivators from other sect clans who had been scared to the point of turning pale and shivering, were all stunned when they saw Luo Bang retract the Luo Tian Umbrella, and his terrifying aura disappearing into the distant horizon.
They were perplexed, not understanding what had just happened.
Just a moment ago, Luo Bang was still ferociously attacking the mountain-protection array of Cang Mountain. But in the blink of an eye— He seemed to be fleeing in defeat?
“Did I…just see Luo Bang, the Blood Blade Taoist, use blood to escape?”
“Hey, hey, did you guys also think it was the blood escape technique? I thought
I was seeing things. Seriously, what happened?”
This, I can’t believe it.’
The Loose Cultivators and cultivators from various sect clans were stirred, flabbergasted.
Wasn’t the Blood Blade Taoist supposed to attack the Su Family in Cang Mountain? Why did he run away instead?
Su Yu didn’t say anything about these things. He only mentioned that the danger had temporarily passed. However, he asked the guests who had come to Cang Mountain for alchemy to stay, at least until Luo Bang had truly left.
After their initial surprise, those Loose Cultivators and sect clans couldn’t help but admire the protective array floating above Cang Mountain.
Even Luo Bang, wielding the incomplete Supreme magic artifact Luo Tian Umbrella, was able to block it. The array’s protective power was indeed strong.
But they also understood.
If Luo Bang had continued his attack, the protection of Cang Mountain would eventually be breached. Perhaps in an hour, or maybe in two hours. This much was predictable.
After all, the barrier of the second-order top-tier Mountain Protection Array had been stirring continuously under the Luo Tian umbrella, and it was on the verge of being shattered.
If the Luo Tian umbrella was a complete supreme magic artifact, maybe Luo Bang could have broken through the array with a few strikes.
Once the guests were appeased, Su Yu, Su Bin, Su Peng and others retreated to the backyard.
Su Yu said: “In addition to Luo Bang, the Blood Blade Taoist, there seemed to be two other people outside. One, also at the ninth layer of the Foundation
Establishment Realm, had an older life aura, and I suspect it’s Bai Yan, the Pill Master from Wu Yan Mountain. As for the other one—”
Su Yu looked around Su Bin, Su Peng and other family elders in the room, and whispered, “At the fourth layer of the Foundation Establishment Realm, the aura felt vaguely familiar. I suspect it’s Su Qingyi.”
Su Bin, Su Peng, Su Yun, Su Ruosu and everyone else’s faces changed dramatically, horrified. “Qing, Qing Yi!?”
“Boom!”
With a hint of red in his eyes, Su Bin’s rage and desire to kill surged. He smashed the stone table in front of him with a slap, and then started cursing, “Damn it! How could our Su Family have such a scourge? Damn it, damn it, huff, huff, huff!!!”
Su Bin was breathing heavily, inhaling large gulps of air. He was so furious that he couldn’t keep up with his own breath.
Su Peng, Su Yun, Su Ruosu and others looked extremely upset, breathing more rapidly than usual, their eyes filled with a tangible murderous intent..
