Chapter 478: Chapter 478: Searching for Li Yanran Together

Upon the mention of Li Yanran, Yu Zhibai immediately guessed why Tang Tieming was at a disadvantage, observing the surrounding trees that were severed midway and countless marks on the ground from the bombardment of tremendous Spiritual Power. Indeed, he had rushed over because of the commotion that had arisen here previously.

This meant that Tang Tieming had been played by Li Yanran!

Li Yanran indeed had some skills, and Yu Zhibai was certainly not afraid of her, but if he were to fight to the death with Li Yanran, there was no guarantee he could win with certainty.

And Li Yanran was most skilled at the Wooden Escape Technique!

Clearly, Tang Tieming, seeing such a Spell for the first time, was completely unaware. Once Li Yanran used the technique to hide within the trees, she could constantly shift among the nearby trees, and in the process, would only reveal very subtle fluctuations of Spiritual Power!

At the time, Tang Tieming had failed to consider this, and by not concentrating to feel the changes of Spiritual Power in the air, he had allowed Li Yanran to escape swiftly and then quickly circle around to his back!

Yu Zhibai sighed and said, "Brother Tang, that Li Yanran is full of tricks and, moreover, possesses a single-element Wood Spiritual Root and the precious Wood Spiritual Bead. If she truly intends to flee, even I would find it difficult to capture her!"

Although he hadn’t spelled it out, he was subtly comparing himself to Tang Tieming in front of Kong Wu, thereby enhancing his own status.

Not to mention anything else.

At least in times of danger, he wouldn’t be the first one pressured into courting death!

Yu Zhibai was extremely scheming, and with a single statement, he hid two purposes.

And nobody else picked up on it.

As for Kong Wu, his attention was more focused on the Wood Spiritual Bead!

After all, Tang Tieming had spoken of the Wood Spiritual Bead, only to end up unable to confirm its authenticity due to not finding the person, which had enraged him.

Now, having confirmed the existence of the Wood Spiritual Bead from Yu Zhibai, how could he not be excited?

He was originally arrogant and dismissive of others, and despite never being favoured, he had become a noteworthy individual among the younger generation of the Haotian Sect with his Innate Taoist Body. Naturally, his State of Mind was not as deep as Yu Zhibai’s.

Perhaps it was his true nature.

Or perhaps he believed that in the face of great strength, everything else is inconsequential.

"So, Junior Brother Yu, do you have a way to find your Junior Sister?"

Kong Wu made no attempt to hide the greed in his eyes. The Wood Spiritual Bead, even if it couldn’t help him break through to the Core Formation Stage in one go, could play a significant role during the breakthrough process.

"Not at the moment," Yu Zhibai pretended to be frustrated and said, "Brother Kong, as you know, I originally came from the Casting Gear Pavilion. That wretched place, where all cultivation relies solely on ourselves, which means we lack many profound Spells. And because we have different Spirit Roots, we focus solely on our cultivation and seldom exchange ideas."

Hearing this, Kong Wu immediately frowned. Before he could speak, he heard Yu Zhibai continue, "But don’t worry, Brother Kong, the relationship between us is extremely good!"

This constant stoking of Kong Wu’s emotions was also one of Yu Zhibai’s aims.

As long as you want the Wood Spiritual Bead, then I can use that to my advantage, thus securing a foothold for myself in the Haotian Sect!

Yu Zhibai was opportunistic, every move he made served a purpose, which made it easy for him to integrate with the people of the Haotian Sect!

With even Kong Wu being cordial towards him, there was no need to mention the others.

Even Tang Tieming was extremely grateful to him!

"Brother Kong, if I’m not mistaken, Junior Sister Li might take those two Qi Refinement Realm disciples to look for a Senior Brother inside our Ji Pavilion! Hence, she won’t be moving fast. We should split up and move in one direction. Whoever finds her first should signal the rest, and then we can converge upon them!"

Kong Wu curiously said, "There are two issues. One is, didn’t you just say that your relationship with that Junior Sister is extremely good? The second issue is, you and Brother Tang recognize that Junior Sister, but the rest of us do not."

Yu Zhibai slightly smiled and said, "Brother Kong, it’s okay if you don’t recognize my Junior Sister. As long as you can identify a male and a female in the Qi Refinement Realm, that will be enough!"

Tang Tieming slapped his thigh and exclaimed, "Exactly, exactly, Brother Kong, and fellow Senior Brothers, the male cultivator in the Qi Refinement Realm had his arms broken by me, he’s easy to recognize!"

Kong Wu’s eyes gleamed, and then he said, "In that case, let’s split up! If anyone finds them, send a message with a Sound Transmission Talisman, and then we can all gather there!"

Having reached a decision, the six people then spread out and moved forward in the same direction, widening their search.
