Chapter 489: Chapter 489: Lu Chen Uses Himself as Bait!

He had indeed noticed Qin Yaotiao earlier.

Now that Lu Chen was using the Hateful Heaven Pupil Technique, his Heart’s Eye was fully open.

Not to mention in front of him, even behind him, nothing was hidden!

He just hadn’t expected that Qin Yaotiao would make a move at the crucial moment, indicating that she had also made significant progress in the Hehuan Sect.

She had transformed from a frail maidservant into a cultivator who knew how to kill!

Mixed feelings filled Lu Chen’s heart, which was why he revealed such an expression.

"Young Master, we all heard the noise. Fairy Li is going to heal Mo Buwen, and Yu Qingqing is too weak, so I had to come!"

Qin Yaotiao withdrew her long sword, and Yu Zhibai crashed to the ground.

But he was not yet dead through and through, still desperately trying to activate that wooden dummy substitute.

"I can’t die, I can’t die..."

But with his heart meridians completely destroyed, and his Spiritual Power in disarray, how could he activate it?

Lu Chen shook his head, reached out to take the long spear that had just flown to his side, and then stabbed Yu Zhibai’s elbow!

"Crack!"

The arm broke off, and the wooden dummy substitute also fell from his hand.

"Yu Zhibai, you framed a fellow sect disciple; according to the sect rules, I will put you down! Hmph!"

Having said that, he picked up the wooden dummy substitute, considering putting it into his own bosom, but then he thought better of it and handed it to Qin Yaotiao. "Keep it safe; in a critical moment, it could save your life! I’ll handle Yu Zhibai’s corpse; you go inform Junior Sister Li and the others to leave the cave quickly. This place is no longer safe!"

"Ah, okay, Young Master!"

Qin Yaotiao was going to ask why, but sensing the urgency in Lu Chen’s tone, she didn’t dare to delay and ran off toward the bottom of the cave.

From here to the bottom of the cave was still several miles away!

"This was originally a perfect hiding place, but it has been ruined by you!"

Lu Chen looked down at Yu Zhibai’s resentful eyes and sighed lightly before he plunged the spear into his abdomen!

Yu Zhibai’s heart meridians were already damaged, hanging on by nothing but Spiritual Power.

Now that his Dantian and path platform were also destroyed, he naturally died immediately.

Lu Chen ripped off the storage bag from his body, didn’t look closely at it, hung it on his waist, then took the Spiritual Fire and threw it onto Yu Zhibai’s body.

The flames crackled.

Half a teacup’s time later, Yu Zhibai had been burned to ashes, and Li Yanran and the others finally arrived, panting.

"Let’s go, Yu Zhibai revealed this place to the people of Haotian Sect."

Lu Chen explained briefly and then ran toward the exit of the cave.

Qin Yaotiao quickly followed him.

The height of the cave was insufficient, and its curves were not suitable for Artifact Control flight.

Li Yanran instinctively picked up a folding fan not far away.

This fan was a Magic Artifact personally refined for her by Danyang Zi. It cost the Casting Gear Pavilion a significant amount of resources, and it took over ten years to earn them back, so it couldn’t be wasted here.

Glancing at the pile of ashes on the ground, she realized Yu Zhibai was dead, and a sense of satisfaction welled up inside her.

She activated the Wood Spiritual Bead, enveloped Mo Buwen and the other person in green light, and followed closely behind Lu Chen.

After a while, they reached the mouth of the cave, where Lu Chen stopped.

"Wait here a moment, let me check the situation first!"

All around was very quiet. Lu Chen was afraid that people like Kong Wu might lay in ambush nearby.

He used the Hateful Heaven Pupil Technique to scan his surroundings while he thought to himself.

If there really was an ambush...

He could escape, but Qin Yaotiao and the others might not be able to!

Therefore, there was only one way: to use himself as bait!

Even if there was an ambush, he could still lead the tiger away from the mountain.

"I’ll go out first. No matter what happens, remember not to leave the cave. I will come back for you!"

After giving the order, Lu Chen used a bit of cunning: he stored the Heavenly Inquiry Spear and instead took the sword in his hand.

At that moment, he was dressed in Qingyun Sect’s attire, holding Qingyun Sect’s magic sword.

If people from Haotian Sect didn’t look closely at his face, they would hardly recognize him as Lu Chen!

Lu Chen had a sudden idea, threw the long spear out of the cave, then leaped onto the sword!

Sword Flight!

He shot towards the clouds, rising swiftly, his Five Elements Spiritual Power maximized within his pupils, running the Hateful Heaven Pupil Technique to its fullest!

The next moment, he spotted four figures far behind him!

They seemed to be stunned to see Lu Chen suddenly rushing out.

Lu Chen was alarmed, better to assume they were from Haotian Sect than to hope for mere luck!

The four of them, after a mere moment’s hesitation, all rushed towards Lu Chen!
