Chapter 149: Chapter 149 Liu Family: I think he is an enemy, what do you guys think?

"Is it this one who controlled the Treasure-Seeking Rat and led us here?"

After wiping, Su Yao put away the medicine in his palm and asked.

Liang Hui shook his head.

He reached out to take the ancient mirror floating above his head and put it into his chest.

"No Gu insects can approach me without my knowledge, nor can they use Gu insects to control the Treasure-Seeking Rat, unless..."

"Unless, there was already a contingency within the white rat, and someone was able to bypass your prohibitions directly."

The girl slowly responded, her gaze wary as she watched her surroundings.

"There’s no need to be vigilant, that person has already fled."

Liang Hui gazed at the Crimson Jade Bell in his hand, his eyes fierce.

While fighting the Aberrant Taoist Priest, he had felt the gaze of someone spying on them.

But the enemy was too cunning; as soon as he showed the slightest advantage, the enemy fled far away.

With a thought, the Crimson Jade Bell trembled lightly, beginning to cleanse the lava on the ground.

Flames came from all directions, pouring into the Crimson Jade Bell.

Not long after, the lava on the ground cooled down.

However, within a kilometer radius, the ground had already turned into an extremely smooth, glazed appearance.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Streaks of flowing light appeared in the distant sky.

Clearly, the intense battle here had attracted the attention of others.

"Let’s go!"

Liang Hui whispered, turning into a streak of flowing light and heading in another direction toward the city.

Su Yao, who had finished searching the battlefield, also rose into the air and followed him.

Less than three minutes after the two had departed,

Figures streaked through the air, hovering in the sky, surveying the battlefield below them.

"Elder Liu, it seems there was indeed a fierce battle here; even the terrain has changed."

The youth dressed in battle armor, his expression full of solemnity, spoke to the old man in the golden robe.

Merely observing the battlefield in front of him, he knew that those who had fought here were very powerful.

"Brother Yong, no matter, our three families together are powerful enough to traverse the secret realm; we need not be overly concerned."

Before the old man in the golden robe could respond, the frail youth standing behind him had already spoken first.

"Xiao Feng, watch your words!"

"At all times, we must maintain the utmost vigilance; we cannot afford to let our guard down."

A rebuke silenced the frail youth, who now wore a somewhat embarrassed expression on his face.

He could swagger and act recklessly outside, but he dared not talk back to the clan elders of his family.

The elder in the golden robe closely examined the traces on the ground and sensed the residual aura.

His expression growing unpleasant, he slowly took out a jade token from his chest and poured Inner Strength into it.

In almost an instant, the jade token turned blood red.

"As I suspected, this is troubling," the elder sighed lightly.

At that moment he had sensed a very familiar aura; it was unique to those who had practiced the Heavenly Pillar Body Refinement Art.

This reminded him of the recently lost cultivation technique original—a golden statue that his family had failed to retrieve.

"What has happened, Brother Liu?"

The one inquiring was a tall and imposing elder, his body exuding a sharp aura, standing beside the armored youth, representing the Yong family.

"The cultivation technique our family obtained from the Barbarian Tribe after years of effort seems to have been leaked," Elder Liu said coldly, looking in the direction where Liang Hui and others had gone.

"Is it very precious? Could we perhaps talk with that person?"

"The cultivation technique itself isn’t too precious; it only allows one to cultivate up to the stage of Blood Exchange, without any means of breaking through the meridians."

"However, our ancestor once incorporated parts of this technique into the fundamental cultivation methods of our family."

Elder Liu’s eyes grew even colder.

Only as a clan elder did he know how much effort the family had put into this technique, which was limited to family descendants only.

The Barbarian Tribe practitioners of this technique had all been eradicated by the family.

"It seems we have no choice but to kill," Elder Yong’s expression also darkened with gravity.

Such a leak of cultivation technique allowed no room for negotiation; there could be no talk.

"We will seek out the Wang Family; together with our three families united, we will slay the foe."

"Besides the Wang Family, contact the other families to see if they are nearby."

Elder Liu spoke slowly.

Since they had chosen to act, they would put forth their full strength for a lethal blow.

"Alright."

Afterward, the four figures disappeared into the sky.

On the other side.

Liang Hui and Su Yao casually chose a room and settled in.

They began to recover their spent mana and physical strength.

In the following days, the two of them practiced cultivation and explored the city.

During this time, they encountered some other people. After exchanging glances, most would leave.

The few who harbored ill intentions became remains by the roadside.

Time slowly passed, and it had been four days since they entered the city.

During this period, they found many hidden strange stones with the help of the Flowing Light Bell.

The quantity of Earth Attribute strange stones was enough to support the young man in completing the "Heavenly Pillar Body Refinement Art."

At the edge of the city, two figures stood side by side.

"Do you feel it? The eight great families of Jiaozhou harbor quite a bit of malice towards us," the young girl said, her red lips parting slightly with a trace of a smile in her eyes.

"I know."

Liang Hui’s expression was indifferent.

In the city, they had occasionally encountered two or three descendants of the eight great families.

Although both parties would leave upon meeting, how could he not sense the malice that lingered behind them?

And the surveillance that sometimes came from around them.

The reason he had not acted on the spot was merely because he wanted to eliminate all the hidden enemies in one go.

"What comes next, just protect yourself," he said.

"I’ll squash all these rats."

The youth’s expression was cold as he stepped forward.

Leaving the city, his steps were neither hurried nor slow as he moved on.

A boundless sea of flowers came into view, with bright red blossoms covering the earth all the way to the horizon.

The gentle breeze caused flower petals to flutter, beautiful yet desolate.

"Nether Flowers, they can only survive in places where a large number of beings have died, also known as Spider Lilies. I didn’t expect today to be the season they bloom," the girl said, her dress billowing as she stopped to admire the breathtaking scene before her.

"Spider Lilies! Indeed, it’s a fine place for bones to lie," Liang Hui said, his mouth curving into a grin as he pulled out gauntlets and slipped them onto his hands.

This place, this moment, no matter who appeared before him.

He would cut them down!

The youth’s killing intent was fiercer than ever before.

Su Yao, at his side, took one last look at Liang Hui, then her figure began to blur.

She soon vanished from sight.

Liang Hui alone stood upon the earth, watching the drifting Spider Lily petals, waiting quietly.

One minute!

Three minutes!

Five minutes!

Footsteps began to come from all directions, and figures appeared within his view.

There were valiant youths, awe-inspiring elders, and women with faces cold as frost... They had come together, sealing off all of Liang Hui’s paths of retreat.

"Young man..."

Bang!

The palm wearing the gauntlet instantly pressed onto the skull of the one who began to speak.

The skull burst open on the spot.

Blood and white bone scattered to the ground.

Now that the enemies had appeared, he had no intention of wasting words.
