Chapter 679: Chapter Four Hundred and Twenty-Seven

"..."

The withered elder’s pupils suddenly constricted upon hearing these words.

The terrible plague spreading in the Northern Frontier couldn’t be concealed from these high-ranking Sect members.

After all, the madness-inducing disease had already caused them substantial losses.

Moreover, since there was no news of any Mortal Transcendence powerhouse being infected, he couldn’t be sure whether this bizarre contagion affected them, but as the saying goes, caution is the parent of safety.

The silent and cramped secret chamber fell quiet for a moment,

before the withered elder spoke again, his gaze now filled with a few more traces of vigilance.

"This plague, as I recall, is momentarily incurable."

The sensuous lips of the middle-aged beauty beneath the mask gently pursed as she said in a low voice,

"You also mentioned it’s only temporary, and besides, you saw Fairy Luo’s reaction earlier. We need to give her an explanation."

The withered elder let out a gentle sigh,

"Alright, cover me. I will use the Dao Domain to probe whether this place is safe. If it is safe, we will temporarily move her out of here."

As the words ended,

the murky flames in the withered elder’s eyes intensified, and the temperature within the dry and cold secret room abruptly began to soar, as if an invisible fire engulfed the entire chamber.

The silence lasted only a moment before chaos ensued as expected.

A ghastly aura began to spread from Jing Xuelan as the center...

Seeing this scene,

the withered elder’s eyes showed little panic as he said,

"That woman Lou Ji really is meticulous, leaving behind her measures here indeed."

"Can it be resolved?"

"She left a Dao Domain within Jing Xuelan. If we touch this woman without any precautions, even you and I might fall victim. But now, well..."

The withered elder chuckled, hands forming a Spellcraft, "She is far away across the heavens. The Dao Domain formed by this minor Energy Mechanism is like rootless duckweed; it couldn’t possibly harm me."

As he spoke,

the molten-hell-like scorching aura in the secret chamber momentarily pressed against the strange aura emanating around Jing Xuelan!

...

...

...

Time returned to the present.

"You also hurry and act with me!!"

The withered elder’s deranged laughter echoed through Huizhou County, flames wrapped around his wrinkled hands as if they could incinerate space, "Jing Xuelan has been found, now, if we just destroy this city and force Xu Changtian out, everything will come to an end hahaha!!"

The madness never ceased as flames continuously hurled down towards the city.

With every fireburst falling, Huizhou County resounded with explosions, the common people’s cries and wails overlapping one another.

For ordinary mortals facing such a catastrophe from high-level powerhouses, instant and painless death had already become their best possible outcome.

Away from the center of the raging flames, the once dignified middle-aged beauty now appeared somewhat disheveled, her elaborate palace garb singed by the flames, with tears visible on her sleeves and around her waist.

Her fair, lotus-like arms and voluptuous waist were exposed, and the constant pain of burns kept assaulting her senses.

The withered elder’s Spellcraft was indiscriminate, and the Three Suns True Flame he practiced meant her injuries could not be immediately healed by her Cultivation Technique.

But at that moment, the middle-aged beauty no longer had the luxury to attend to her wounds.

The ceaseless booming and the towering flames painted the sky red.

Underneath her sorrowful iron mask, the middle-aged beauty stared fixedly at the nearby withered elder who had plunged into madness, her once gentle face now ashen.

Looking at the feudal-like withered elder, the middle-aged beauty’s mind whirred, urgently considering her next move.

Upon entering the Xuanying Attic, facing the chances that Lou Ji might have left something behind, both of them had been sufficiently cautious, yet the withered elder still fell inevitably into the trap.

As the withered elder was about to suppress the Energy Mechanism completely and cleanse the Dao Domain that Lou Ji had left inside Jing Xuelan, a burst of pink light exploded in the claustrophobic and cramped secret chamber...

Charm God Cherry Blossoms.

The sinister woman Lou Ji had hidden the Charm God Cherry Poison within the Dao Domain!

The Charm Poison refined by Lou Ji was not something Xu Yuan, a novice in Soul Condensation, could compare to,

In the instant it erupted, the Charm Poison flowed back through the Dao Domain cast by the withered elder, reaching his true form and leaving him in a brief stupor.

The middle-aged beauty immediately sought to rescue him, trying to use her Origin Qi to pull the elder out of the range covered by the pink glow, but she failed.

The moment her Origin Qi touched the pink light, the Charm Poison wrapped itself around her Origin Qi and surged towards her true form.

If she didn’t retreat, she too would be eroded by the Charm Poison and trapped there, losing her sanity.

In the moment before leaving the secret chamber,

the middle-aged beauty saw Jing Xuelan, who had been lying on the stone slab, slowly awaken from her coma, but within those beautiful eyes that opened, there was only madness and the intent to kill...

When she saw him again, the withered elder had already descended into utter insanity.

"Damn it!!"

The middle-aged beauty couldn’t help but exclaim, as a spherical arc of light immediately condensed in her hand.

The withered elder had completely lost his mind now; their plans had been utterly ruined, and she had to make a decision immediately.

Whether to kill the withered elder on the spot or to go along with his mistaken actions, destroying the city below and forcing Xu Changtian out.

As the thought arose, a low whispering voice resounded right in her heart:
