<h4>Chapter 576: Leng Ningyu and Chi Yue in Danger, Li Celong’s Scheme</h4>


    Once the Divine Sword of Four Mystical Elements was unleashed, the ck fog-like seal shattered instantly!


    Chu Kuangren brought Swordsman Wei and Jian Changfeng out of the ce.


    “Do you have any way of reverting to your original self from this vessel?”


    Chu Kuangren asked as he nced at Jian Changfeng, who had turned into a garage kit figure of himself.


    Upon hearing this, Jian Changfeng let out a bitter smile. “I used the Soul Transference Technique to shift my soul into this wooden puppet. If I want to revert to my original self, I need to find another soulless vessel that is still unscathed. That’s the prerequisite before I can transfer my soul elsewhere.”


    That would be an arduous task.


    Jian Changfeng’s soul energy was not strong enough. Hence, if he wished to walk in on other people, he would surely experience a strong rejection or resistance from the other vessel’s soul. It wouldn’t suffice for him to win over the vessel with just his soul alone when the original target’s soul and flesh body were already strongly bound together.


    Walking in on a corpse would not work too because a damaged vessel would not have the capability of epting his soul in whole.


    Another alternative was to create a whole new vessel for him.


    However, this was even more impossible to achieve than the previous idea.


    There were methods to reconstruct a vessel, but they were incredibly rare to find. The materials needed for these methods were even rarer. Every single ingredient needed was astounding treasures.


    Even if those were avable, Chu Kuangren would still need to consider whether it was worth using those kinds of treasures to reconstruct a vessel for Jian Changfeng.


    At the end of the day, Jian Changfeng was nothing but Chu Kuangren’s ve.


    “A perfectly undamaged vessel that isn’t upied by a soul, huh? It’s possible and not too difficult actually.”


    Chu Kuangren muttered under his breath.


    Jian Changfeng was utterly bewildered. “Master, do you have a way to solve this?”


    “You’ll know soon enough.”


    Chu Kuangren did not reveal any further.


    Plenty of sky-prides hade to explore the Forbidden Barren Wastnds, and each of them had found their respective Opportunities of Fortune.


    At the same time, a grave danger still existed from those seals that had yet to open, resulting in quite a number of cultivators perishing.


    In fact, sky-prides battling among themselves was also amon sighting.


    …


    A crimson me glided across the sky and brutally smashed onto Leng Ningyu’s body.


    This me’s power was extremely terrifying. Even Leng Ningyu could not help but spit out blood. A good portion of her snowy-white skin was burned charred. Not only did that me erode her body through the wounds on her skin, but it also found its way to the depths of her body, making it hard to sense the mes.


    Leng Ningyu herself could feel that something was amiss, but she did not have the time to do an exploratory check on her wounds. This was because she had a grave enemy in front of her, ready to pounce anytime.


    The enemy was an extremely enchanting woman. She wore a long, dark red dress which entuated her curvaceous figure. Her pair of autumn-like eyes were even more amorous.


    “Senior Sister.”


    A short distance away, Chi Yue became extremely worried after watching Leng Ningyu getting injured. She hurriedly got to her and stood before thetter, where she stared at that enchanting woman solemnly.


    “Princess Chi Lian, why are you hunting us down? There’s absolutely no reason for you to do this,” Chi Yue asked coldly.


    Princess Chi Lian was the goddaughter of the Divine Serpent Tribe’s King. They were from a wild beast tribe in Emperor Road. Rumor had it that her true form was the incredibly powerful archaic wild beast, the Crimson Lotus Serpent.


    However, the Seven Emotions Sect had never crossed paths with the Divine Serpent Tribe, so Chi Yue was puzzled as to why Princess Chi Lian wanted to target them.


    “Pfft, absolutely no reason, huh?”


    “Back then, when your Honorable Teacher slew my father, did she not expect that this day would eventuallye?!”


    An ice-cold gaze shot out from Princess Chi Lian’s eyes.


    Upon hearing this, Leng Ningyu and Chi Yue instantly understood something. “That Crimson Lotus Serpent that our Honorable Teacher slew was your father?!”


    “Exactly.”


    “Darn it. I’ve known long ago that your true form is a Crimson Lotus Serpent. However, I didn’t expect you to be connected to that serpent that was in by Honorable Teacher.”


    Chi Yue swore to herself. Who would have thought that she had a reason behind her actions?


    “Back in the day, your father wrought wanton destruction on mankind. My Honorable Teacher only killed him because of the disaster he dealt upon us. What’s wrong with that?!” Chi Yue rebutted.


    “Hmph, all those years ago, my father only descended into madness because of his obsession with cultivation. Nevertheless, those were just a couple hundred civilian lives lost. Once my father was done with his rampage, he would’ve automatically returned to normal. Yet, your Honorable Teacher insisted on bing some sort of justice warrior and opted to deliver death upon my dear father.”


    “Now, I’m here to avenge myte father. What’s wrong with me killing you both and asking for some payback from Leng Yue and those few other bastards?”


    Princess Chi Lian said bluntly. Then, she lifted his hand and massive amounts of crimson mes brewed and twirled at the heart of her palm.


    That was Princess Chi Lian’s divine power, the Red Serpent Poison me!


    The me was incredibly powerful, and not many me powers in this world couldpete with it.


    “We’re in deep trouble now.”


    Chi Yue looked solemn. There was absolutely nothing they could do if their enemy swore to exact vengeance for her father.


    However, this did not necessarily mean that they were ready to ept death.


    “Chi Yue, leave now. You can’t beat her.”


    As Leng Ningyu stared at Princess Chi Lian grimly, frost qi emanated from the former’s body to temporarily freeze her wounds.


    “Kill!”


    Princess Chi Lian scoffed before raising her hand and hurling out those dark crimson mes.


    The mes manifested into a vicious giant python, which opened its jaws viciously in their direction.


    “Supreme Emotional Forgetting Pierce!”


    Leng Ningyu stretched out her arm and gathered her Daoist Rhyme into a finger that she thrust out. That was when a giant ivory finger shadow pierced out, almost tearing the fabrics of space.


    This hit was extremely powerful.


    That menacing fire python was instantly demolished with one finger attack.


    The finger strength immediately threw Princess Chi Lian off her feet. She responded shockingly, “I didn’t expect you to have suchbat strength. You truly are a mighty ouwed sky-pride.”


    Leng Ningyu was already heavily injured from her opponent’s previous ambush and suffering from the poison mes’ corrosion. Even so, she had the strength to attack her and force her into retreat.


    Nevertheless, Chi Yue could see that Leng Ninyu was nearing the end of her life.


    Once Princess Chi Lian was forced backward, she quickly wrapped her hands around Leng Ningyu and attempted to flee with her toward the far side.


    “Heh, flee all you want, but you’ll never get away from me.”


    Princess Chi Lian once again let out her dark crimson forked-tongue and licked her lips. Then, she looked at them with a mocking gaze.


    To her, Leng Ningyu and Chi Yue were already trapped in the palm of her hand. No matter how hard they struggled, they could not escape her captivity. She was enjoying the feeling of toying with her prey.


    Swish…


    A figure appeared right beside Princess Chi Lian.


    It was a handsome young man. If Leng Ningyu and Chi Yue were here, they would surely recognize who this man was. He was the student of Master Daoist Li, Li Celong.


    “Leng Ningyu has already been poisoned by my me of Desire Poison. This me poison is theplete opposite of the one Leng Yue had. Leng Yue suffered a burning pain whenever her feelings or desires surface, but this me poison of mine would bring about the most primitive lust inside Leng Ningyu’s body. It doesn’t matter how pristine, celibate, or emotionless she is. She wouldn’t be able to resist this.”


    “Your chance hase. Do make the most out of it.”


    Li Celong looked absolutely delighted when he heard that. “Thank you very much, Sister Chi Lian.”


    “Once you’ve gotten what you wanted, don’t forget what you’ve promised me.”


    “Don’t you worry, Sister Chi Lian. When all of this is done, I’ll surely inform you of the whereabouts of that Crimson Miasma Lotus me.”


    Li Celong said with a smile. After that, he took off a satchel from his waist and released a snowy bug from it.


    That bug spun in the air twice and swooped toward the direction that Leng Ningyu and Chi Yue left in.


    “The Queen Snow Jade Bug could easily locate you even when kilometers apart. The bug powder from the jade bugs has already been injected into your body along with the me poison, Ningyu. You can run, but you can’t hide.”


    Confidence was written all over Li Celong’s face. With the Queen Snow Jade Bug’s guidance, he brought Princess Chi Lian to chase after them.


    “Sister Chi Lian, once we’ve found them both, I hope that you can y along with me and put up a show.”


    Li Celong suddenly requested. “I hope that by then, I’ll be the one who saves them both.”


    “Oh, you’re looking to stage a dramatic scene of a hero saving the damsel, huh? We’ve alreadye so far, and yet you still wish to win over Leng Ningyu’s heart this way. Ah, humans. How ironic and fake you guys are.”


    Princess Chi Lianughed at the idea, but she stillplied.
