Chapter 751: Chapter 563: You’re Actually This Amazing

"What an Earth Fire!"

An aged voice suddenly rang out, echoing in the ears of Wang Yang and his two companions, filled with a cold murderous intent.

"Granny, save me!"

Upon hearing the voice, Linglong, as if grasping at a lifesaving straw, called out loudly.

"Save you?"

Wang Yang sneered, a trace of disdain curling the corner of his mouth. His Earth Fire was not the common technique of the Earth Immortal Realm but a Divine Skill powered by the Heart of Pangu, drawing upon the Power of the Celestial Way!

In other words, Wang Yang’s Earth Fire contained the Power of the Celestial Way of this Square World, making it unstoppable!

"An arrogant brat!"

The aged voice sounded again, this time even more grating, neither male nor female, and extremely uncomfortable to listen to.

No sooner had the voice faded than a whirlwind swept in, carrying clouds of dust, followed by countless thick vines and branches!

The branches wrapped tightly around Linglong’s body and, with a fierce pull, attempted to drag her into the darkness.

Wang Yang’s lips curled into a mocking smile. Without the main body present, relying on just a strand of a clone to save someone, he’d reckon there would be a price to pay!

Sure enough, as the branches were binding Linglong, the Earth Fire flared up instantly, spreading from the branches!

"Ahh!"

From the depths of the dark night sky, a roar filled with rage resounded.

Wang Yang’s eyes gleamed brilliantly, piercing the void; then, in a flash, his figure vanished from the spot!

Because Granny’s voice had deliberately mixed in a thread of Spiritual Energy that echoed in the void, Wang Yang was unable to determine the exact location.

But now, as the Earth Fire burned the branch clone, affecting the main body, the source of that voice became much easier to trace!

As Wang Yang disappeared, Xiao Qian dared not linger either and hurriedly got up, rushing toward Jinling Town—she knew Granny’s methods all too well. Even if Linglong perished, her memories and information would be devoured!

In that case, Ning Caichen’s situation would be extremely dangerous!

For Granny to find someone in Jinling Town was as easy as turning over a hand!

Wang Yang’s figure flickered, but the branches retracted too rapidly; he just couldn’t close the distance.

"This Demon Tree’s realm might have touched upon The True One!"

To withstand the burn of Earth Fire without severing the branch clone indicated a realm at least above that of The True One.

The True One Realm already possessed the capacity to comprehend a sliver of Heavenly Dao’s power. The only thing that could resolve the Daoist Divine Power was the Power of Heavenly Dao Laws!

"I will settle this score with you!"

The Tree Demon’s angry voice echoed in the air, followed by countless vines twisting in from all directions, heading straight for Wang Yang.

Wang Yang was forced to halt, the Earth Fire within him bursting forth again, burning the approaching vines to ashes!

But in doing so, he also lost the opportunity to close in on his target.

All returned to calmness as Wang Yang’s gaze turned towards the darkness not far away. After pondering for a moment, he chose not to continue the pursuit and left instead.

The night not only affected visibility but also confused the senses of hearing and smell.

In an environment where he wasn’t fully aware of the surrounding terrain, continuing the pursuit could very likely lead to getting lost.

Moreover, even if he managed to rescue Linglong, she was nothing more than a Dead Soul. Granny, as the Thousand-Year Tree Demon, might withstand the burn of Earth Fire, but Linglong of the Divine Realm certainly could not!

The only value in saving her might be Linglong’s memories and information.

Therefore, Wang Yang’s top priority was still to find the scholar Ning Caichen. Although the Tree Demon seemed to be no match for him in their brief encounter, Wang Yang knew it was just one of its strands of consciousness.

If the main body came forward, it remained to be seen whose deer would die.

After all, Wang Yang didn’t have full confidence in triumphing over someone in The True One Realm, especially a Thousand-Year Tree Demon that might harbor Demonic Qi.

Upon reflection, he decided to first return to the location Nie Xiaoqian mentioned, to find Ning Caichen, the scholar. If the Tree Demon reached him first and devoured his Pure Yang Blood, it would become very troublesome!

Wang Yang pressed on without rest, heading straight back to Jinling Town. However, the moment he entered the town, he couldn’t help but gasp.

He saw that Jinling Town had turned from a bustling place into a town of death, littered with bodies, in just the one Hour he had been away.

The pungent smell of blood permeated the entire town, with fresh blood running across the ground, staining it red.

"Am I too late?"

Wang Yang muttered softly to himself, suddenly recalling that Su Yue was still in town, which made him tense up. He hurried towards the Jinling Inn.

Along the way, the streets were awash with blood, with corpses everywhere, and judging by the timing of their deaths, they must have died about the time it takes to burn an Incense Stick.

Yue’er!

Wang Yang’s Divine Sense spread out, yet he did not detect Su Yue’s presence. A hint of killing intent flashed between his brows, fearing that what he was worried about had indeed come to pass.

The innkeeper indeed had an issue!

Boom!

Wang Yang kicked open the inn’s door, only to see that the guesthouse, packed with guests just a while ago, was now eerily empty, with tables and chairs neatly arranged with no sign of struggle.

"Yue’er!"

Wang Yang called out, but aside from his own echoes, there was no response.

Whoosh!

Just then, a sound of something cutting through the air could be heard, an arrow shot towards Wang Yang with deadly speed!

Wang Yang neither dodged nor flinched, pinching the arrow between his fingers effortlessly. A note appeared before his eyes.

He unfolded the note, and a few lines of small characters were revealed.

"If you wish for Miss Su Yue’s safety, please bring the scholar Ning Caichen to the City God Temple, ten miles to the west of the town, at midnight tonight!"
