Chapter 291: Chapter 291
"Wait a minute, wait a minute!"
Wen Zhixing, caught by Murong Fenghua, sensed something was amiss. This light screen resembled the Divine Ability [Ends of the Earth in the Blink of an Eye] that the Stealing Daytime and Changing Daytime Demon Sovereign had used at the very end.
Oh crap! What in the world is Murong Fenghua trying to do?
"It’s too late. Let’s go."
Murong Fenghua, however, frowned as she gazed at the distant sky. Then, she forcibly grabbed Wen Zhixing’s hand and stepped into the light screen.
Wen Zhixing was bewildered. Hold on, what are you doing? Are you really going? Where are you taking me!
Wen Zhixing struggled desperately. Don’t do this! I still have several wives I haven’t taken with me!
However, being merely a Fifth Realm cultivator, how could he possibly resist a powerhouse like Murong Fenghua?
More than half of his body was dragged into the light screen, leaving only his head exposed. He was on the verge of disappearing completely.
Just then, a figure suddenly materialized in the distant sky.
It was none other than Liu Qingxuan, who had just achieved a breakthrough.
Wen Zhixing’s eyes widened, and he cried out excitedly, "Master, save me!"
Liu Qingxuan’s appearance felt like a beacon of hope. He had finally managed to gain a foothold here. He hadn’t even had the chance to throw his weight around and torment those beautiful local women. How could he be willing to leave just like that?
Liu Qingxuan was also slightly taken aback. He had planned to come here immediately after his breakthrough, but he hadn’t anticipated encountering such a situation upon arrival.
What in the world is going on? The moment Murong Fenghua emerges from closed-door cultivation, she does nothing but try to abduct my disciple?
Liu Qingxuan’s expression instantly darkened, and a terrifying pressure swept forth.
The next instant, a colossal hand reached out from the void. Vast, as if eclipsing the sky and sun, it pressed down from above.
With an authoritative, soft command, the entire space was immobilized; even the ripples on the light screen froze solid.
Murong Fenghua’s expression shifted. This power was even stronger than she had anticipated.
"Master is incredible!" Wen Zhixing shouted. Awesome! So awesome!
However, just as a flicker of joy touched his face, his expression changed yet again. Wait a minute, something isn’t right.
An impatient voice reached his ears. He saw Murong Fenghua open her right hand. A lotus seed, radiating an unusual glow, surged into the light screen.
Suddenly, a tremendous suction force emanated from it. The light screen began to operate once more.
Liu Qingxuan’s massive hand found itself unable to immobilize the light screen. The rest of Wen Zhixing’s body was forcibly pulled inside.
Soon, a sensation of the world spinning overwhelmed him.
Liu Qingxuan’s hand, sensing something was wrong, immediately grasped downwards fiercely.
However, the light screen shattered instantly, dissolving into specks of starlight and vanishing without a trace. The two of them disappeared from their original spot in an instant.
The next moment, Liu Qingxuan appeared where they had been, his expression grim. He had just witnessed his disciple being kidnapped right before his very eyes.
"Divine Ability - Tracking Shadow!"
Liu Qingxuan’s eyes narrowed instantly as his vast Divine Soul Force burst forth. He attempted to discern where the two had gone.
How is this possible?
A moment later, Liu Qingxuan’s eyes snapped open, a hint of astonishment within them. His ever-reliable Divine Ability had failed for the first time. Wen Zhixing and Murong Fenghua seemed to have vanished as if they had never been there at all. Not even a trace of their aura remained. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ NoveI-Fire.ɴet
It must be some sort of single-use teleportation treasure, Liu Qingxuan mused. He also briefly probed the surroundings. Although he was supremely powerful, having come from a relatively unknown place, he hadn’t encountered many such exotic secret treasures.
For a time, Liu Qingxuan stood rooted to the spot, lost in silence. Now, he felt like someone who drew his sword and looked around, utterly at a loss.
Before arriving, Liu Qingxuan had already received news that Wen Zhixing had subdued and dealt with everyone from the Wonderous Palace. His original intention was for Wen Zhixing and the others to gain experience here. He just hadn’t expected Wen Zhixing to accomplish the task so thoroughly. His primary target, however, had always been Murong Fenghua.
So, what was the situation now? He had put in so much effort, yet had no outlet for it.
Liu Qingxuan’s Divine Consciousness Power flared out, instantly blanketing the entire Wonderous Palace. Everything that had transpired here was scrutinized. Seeing that most people were already lying in pools of blood, he shook his head slightly. This is karma, I suppose.
The ones responsible for the killing were Si Nanyan, Feng Ruoli, and Yun Xinyue. The three of them were currently frozen in place by Liu Qingxuan, their faces etched with horror.
Enough. Liu Qingxuan waved his hand, releasing the immobilization. So be it. Henceforth, the Wonderous Palace will effectively cease to exist.
Liu Qingxuan had intended to investigate Murong Fenghua’s previous place of closed-door cultivation, but then his brow suddenly twitched. He had sensed another powerful aura.
Liu Qingxuan’s gaze turned towards the direction of the Righteous Sun Sect. He had barely left, yet a powerful individual had already come to visit the Righteous Sun Sect.
Are they just passing by, or did they sense the aura of my breakthrough? Liu Qingxuan pondered briefly, yet his figure slowly vanished from the spot.
Inside the Wonderous Palace, corpses were strewn everywhere.
Si Nanyan and the other two, having just regained their freedom, gasped for breath, their faces pale with terror.
What just happened? They were utterly clueless.
"It was that Liu Qingxuan..." Feng Ruoli, currently possessing the highest cultivation among them, had still managed to sense who the newcomer was.
"Liu Qingxuan..." Yun Xinyue’s eyes filled with dread. Liu Qingxuan’s power is so formidable...
"That was close. We owe our lives to Master," Feng Ruoli murmured, gently stroking her ample chest, suddenly feeling immensely fortunate.
