Chapter 574: An Unexpected Scene
Trantor: Iamgt Editor: Lucas
"Fiery phoenix?"
Inside the iron cage, Honglin was startled. "Little Blue is here. Does that mean Father is here as well?" Honglin could not help looking toward the sky and searching about carefully. However, she couldn’t find her father at all.
"No!" the ck-robed man yelled, unwilling to ept this.
Under the pressure of Little Blue’s might, the formidable fire-type force in the surroundings even made the ck-robed man feel like he couldn’t move a single step. Peng! A fiery red qi force attacked the ck-robed man’s abdomen severely. Hisplexion suddenly paled, and he knew he was doomed as his dantian was crippled now.
"You~~~" Little Blue’s sharp ws lightly grabbed this now crippled ck-robed man and then turned back to look at Honglin.
All she saw was Little Blue’s pointed beak open up.
Xiu!
A harsh, violet light easily snapped open the locks and iron chains on Honglin’s hands and feet.
Having regained her freedom, Honglin immediately stood up. At this moment, that little white bird flew to her shoulder.
"Little White, thank you." Honglin softly petted the little white bird. She understood that her father had gone through a lot of trouble... always avoiding telling her and her brother about the little birds’ special qualities. It was all so that they wouldn’t depend on having an innate demonic beast protecting them and behave too brazenly. Thus, during genuinely dangerous moments, this little bird would be able to catch the enemy off guard.
Actually, from the very start, the little bird had wanted to save Honglin.
However, under Little Blue’s orders, it had not dared to do so. Initially, Little Blue had wanted to lure out the big fish, but that ck-robed man wanted to destroy Honglin’s looks, which made Little Blue unable to tolerate it any longer. As such, Little Blue had ordered the little white bird to take action at once.
"Fan Anran!"
Honglin lowered her head to look at Fan Anran, who was already dead inside the iron cage. At this moment, she didn’t know if she should hate him or grief. Either way, Fan Anran was already dead. Even if she wanted to hate him, there was no one left to hate.
"All of it was fake, all fake."
"That pledge of undying love... It was all fake."
For a moment, a multitude of thoughts gushed into Honglin’s mind.
"Yuu~~~" Little Blue urged Honglin with a hoot.
It snapped Honglin out of her trance, and she immediately jumped onto Little Blue’s back.
"Hu!"
Little Blue shook its pair of wings and rushed toward Yangzhou while carrying Honglin on its back and holding that crippled, innate level ck-robed man in its ws.
"Now, at this moment, Teng Qingshan must have set off already."
At an extremely high altitude, the mysterious, golden-masked man was currently sitting cross-legged on a ck, bird-type demonic beast. This bird-type demonic beast had an entirely pitch-ck body and showed a slight resemnce to a crow, aside from its immense build and blood-red eyes.
"Teng Qingshan, I’ll stay here while you make a journey to Yanzhou for nothing. After that, when you return to the Great Yan Mountain, you will discover that your Xing Yi Sect is already doomed! There will be countless dead and injured experts, and even your sect’s secret manual will be disseminated all over the world until everyone knows its contents." The golden masked-man was very clear on this. As long as the Xing Yi Sect’s important secret manual was disseminated, then there would no longer be just one Internal Martial Arts sect in the world.
When the time came, the Xing Yi Sect wouldn’t be able to attract a gathering of so many Internal Martial Arts cultivators either.
"19 years of hard work will be wasted! When you are about to go mad, your daughter will be sent back to you, then you will realize that your daughter has already been disfigured and that her mind has been broken, turning her into a silly fool," the golden-masked man sneered. "With the sect doomed and your daughter in this state, I’ll see what Teng Qingshan will be.
"I guess you’ll suspect that this move of mine is like luring the tiger from its domain in the mountains?
"But I’m afraid that even if you do suspect that, you still have to go save your daughter." The golden-masked man was very clear on this point.
Immediately after talking, the golden-masked man let out a bird call.
Swoosh!
While carrying the golden-masked man on its back, this bird-type demonic beast flew rapidly toward the Great Yan Mountain. After a mere moment, it had flown over more than a thousand Li ofnd, through the sky above Great Yan Mountain.
The bird-type Emptiness Realm Demonic Beast didn’t actually slow down at all. Rather, when it flew to an altitude of around 20-30 Li over the Great Yan Mountain, the bird-type demonic beast flew 500-600 Li to the northwest in one shot beforeing to a stop.
"Haha, of course!
"Inside this Great Yan Mountain, there are only three Emptiness Realm auras."
"If my guesses aren’t wrong, the ones here belong to that Golden Dragon Turtle and the Demonic Dragon Violet Rain. As for the one that’s staying in the Xing Yi Sect, it should belong to the Six Legged delike Chi." The golden-masked man revealed a smile. "If Teng Qingshan and the Undying Phoenix aren’t around... Haha... Considering the strength of the ck Crow’s Emptiness Realm Culmination level, it will bepletely unafraid to fight the Six Legged delike Chi alone.
"Perhaps ck Crow isn’t as good as the Six Legged delike Chi when ites to moving about inside a small range. However, when ites to moving in a straight line, ck Crow’s speed is only second to the Wind Splitting Dragon Falcon.
"Since Teng Qingshan and the Undying Phoenix aren’t around, we’ve already seeded halfway in this matter!
"Teng Qingshan. It has been 19 years already, 19 years! I’ve let you live happily for 19 years, but it’s about time for me to take revenge!!! I’ll let you suffer in remorse for the rest of your life!!!" There was a dense chill in the golden-masked man’s voice.
...
Inside the Xing Yi Sect within the borders of the Great Yan Mountain:
"Madam, just now, you said that two Emptiness Realm auras passed through at a high altitude?" Yang dong was somewhat astonished.
"Mm, delike Chi was the one who sensed them." There were creases of worry on Li Jun’s forehead. "If this were a normal day, it’d be fine if an Emptiness Realm Expert passed by. There’s nothing to be baffled about. But... today is different. For two Emptiness Realm Experts to pass through at a high altitude at this time... I’m a bit worried! If these two Emptiness Realm Expertsunch an attack on us, then we’ll truly be in trouble."
"Maybe they’re just passing by," Yang Dong said, trying to console Li Jun. "Madam, Teacher is acting together with the delike Chi. It’ll be fine."
Li Jun nodded slightly.
In fact, she had a lot of confidence in Teng Qingshan. However, she was worried that... the repercussions of a battle would leave the Xing Yi Sect suffering from major losses.
At this uneasy period of waiting, Li Jun felt the day drag past like a year. Beside her, the Six Legged delike Chi was lying silently on its stomach, resting motionlessly with its eyes closed.
Meanwhile, underground...
Teng Qingshan was the same, waiting quietly and motionlessly with his eyes closed.
Not long after...
A formidable aura swooped over from a distance at an astonishing speed. The moment this aura intruded into the scope of the Six Legged delike Chi’s domain, specifically when it sensed the other party’s hostility, the Six Legged delike Chi that had initially been lying on the ground with its eyes closed instantly disappeared from its spot. It dashed up into the high altitudes while letting out an angry roar that pierced through the entire Great Yan Mountain.
"Hou~~~" The roar was world-shaking, and under the six Legged delike Chi’s control, it was immediately transmitted underground.
Deep underground...
When Teng Qingshan, who initially had his eyes closed, felt the vibrations caused by the roar, he instantly opened his eyes.
Bang! He immediately charged upward.
Breaking through the rock stratum and then the underground magma, Teng Qingshan charged straight through to the surface at the fastest speed!
"Hm?"
During the split second in which it took Teng Qingshan to jump out of the ground, he already discovered a scene that made him apprehensive. Apletely pitch-ck, bird-type demonic beast was currently fighting the Six Legged delike Chi at close quarters in midair. Once in a while, the bird-type demonic beast would deliberately disperse gales down to the Xing Yi Sect’s pce hall. As rumbling sounds rang out, many of the residences and halls copsed with loud bangs, and arge number of disciples evaded them frantically.
Fortunately, the Six Legged delike Chi relied on its rapid speed within a small range to sh about and bother the ck, bird-type demonic beast tenaciously, preventing it from destroying wildly.
However...
There were already wounds on the Six Legged delike Chi’s body. The green blood on it was particrly eye-catching.
"Not good. delike Chi is in a disadvantageous position.
"Evil creature!" Teng Qingshan suddenly shouted loudly, dashing over hurriedly.
When the ck Crow saw Teng Qingshan dash over, it did not dare be careless, especially after sensing Teng Qingshan’s formidable spiritual energy. The ck Crow retreated violently.
"Hou~~" The Six Legged delike Chi let out an excited yell.
Teng Qingshan immediately jumped onto the back of the Six Legged delike Chi, who suddenly shook its wings. Countless phantoms instantly appeared, making the bird-typed Emptiness Realm demonic beastpletely unable to evade them... The Six Legged delike Chi wasn’t at all trying to kill the ck Crow. Instead, it was using the simplest yet most effective methods——
Firstly, the moment they got close, the delike Chi would wind around the ck Crow Demonic Beast tenaciously. At close range, the ck Crow’s flexibility was definitely not a match for the Six Legged delike Chi’s.
Secondly, the moment the distance between them increased, the Six Legged delike Chi would definitely be below the ck Crow! If the ck Crow wanted to attack the Xing Yi Sect, then it would need to swoop down. The Six Legged delike Chi waspletely able to intercept it! After all, when it came to having an instant burst of strength, the Six Legged delike Chi was also the superior one.
"You~~~" The bird-typed demonic beast emitted a yell.
"Evil creature, ept death," Teng Qingshan suddenly shouted as he stamped on the Six Legged delike Chi, and the spear in his hand instantly began to move.
"As the shadow follows the body!"
Immediately, a wild and violent shadow of the spear instantly covered the bird-type demonic beast.
Ding! The sharp ws of this bird-type demonic beast named ck Crow shed hard against Teng Qingshan’s spear.
The moment it entered closebat, the ck Crow knew that the situation was bad and wanted to rise high into the sky.
However, the delike Chi once again wound around it. Simultaneously, there was still Teng Qingshan’s formidable Reincarnation Spear.
"Five ElementalToxic Dragon Drill!" A ruthless expression swept past Teng Qingshan’s eyes.
As the red tassel on the Reincarnation Spear danced in the breeze, the ck Crow was unable to dodge. It could only block with its sharp ws.
"ng!"
The might of this spear far exceeded what the bird-type demonic beast estimated.
Puchi! Teng Qingshan’s spear ground against the ck Crow’s sharp ws and then pierced one of its wings.
"Yuuu~~~"
A mournful cry rang out. The ck Crow no longer cared about anything else. The wound in its right wing closed in a sh as it frantically tried to flee far away.
"You can’t escape." Teng Qingshan stamped on the Six Legged delike Chi with a cold light flickering in his eyes. The Six Legged delike Chi gave chase frantically like it had gone mad. If the ck Crow had tried to flee at the start, it would have managed to flee by relying on its superior speed. However, now that its wing was injured, its speed would also be negatively affected and weakened.
...
After being attacked from afar by the ck Crow’s frightening gales, the Xing Yi Sect was in a state of great chaos.
However, Li Jun, Yang Dong, Teng Shou, and the others all had their heads raised,looking at the sky.
The Emptiness Realm Experts were fighting in closebat at such a fast speed that their movements looked like the sparks caused by shing flints together. In the blink of an eye, Teng Qingshan and the Six Legged delike Chi were already flying at a rapid speed, trying to kill that bird-type demonic beast with a fully pitch-ck body.
"They’ve won." Yang Dong revealed a smile.
"Mm." Li Jun let out a sigh of relief.
"Look!" Teng Shou cried out in surprise.
They saw a huge phantom suddenly fly out from the distant woods of the Great Yan Mountain and then immediately intercept Teng Qingshan and the Six Legged delike Chi from the side.
...
"Hm?" Teng Qingshan looked at the Demonic Dragon Violet Rain, that was snaking and spiraling around in midair before him. He was somewhat startled, angry, and puzzled because Violet Rain was obstructing and dying him. That wounded, Emptiness Realm, bird-type demonic beast had already escaped outside the scope of Teng Qingshan’s domain, so he no longer had any way of chasing and killing it again.
"Hou~~" The Six Legged delike Chi let out a deep roar discontentedly.
"Elder Brother Violet Rain, what do you mean by this?" Teng Qingshan stared at Violet Rain, momentarily stumped as to what he should ask.
He and Violet Rain were on fairly decent terms.
Why was it obstructing him?
"Ao~~Houhou~~" The snaking and spiraling demonic dragon let out a deep and low roar. Then the Six Legged delike Chi, who understood the roar, turned to look at Teng Qingshan somewhat puzzledly.
"Just what is going on?" Teng Qingshan became even more puzzled.
"Eh?"
Teng Qingshan, who was confused, suddenly sensed a familiar aura and turned to look. He saw a fire-red radiance fly over speedily. It was Little Blue, and on her back was Honglin, who currently looked somewhat like she was in dire straits. At this moment, Honglin’s eyes were already full of tears.
"Father!" Honglin’s voice rang out from afar.
