Chapter 722: Chapter 722: First go to Xuanyun Sect, kill Xuan Hong, save Xuan Jian!

"Kid, you actually..."

Feeling an inexplicable chill in his hand, Xuan Hong immediately knew what had happened!

"You’re right, who would return a sword to a Sword Cultivist?"

A sneer played on Lu Chen’s lips as the Heavenly Inquiry Spear instantly shrank back to its original form. As soon as his laughter dropped, he was already charging forward!

"A direct assault on the dragon’s lair!"

Even though he knew he had the power to fight against someone in the late Nascent Soul Stage, Lu Chen had never underestimated Xuan Hong from beginning to end.

This was a taboo.

So this spear thrust directly at Xuan Hong’s abdomen, aiming to pierce through both him and his Nascent Soul in one fell swoop!

Xuan Hong didn’t have time to deal with the ice shards formed from the Ice-Strange Fire, nor could he shake off the Shadowless Sword.

In front of him, the Heavenly Inquiry Spear came again with overwhelming Spiritual Power. His mind was in shock, and without time to think further, he resorted to Teleportation once again!

Lu Chen cracked a grin, his body paused in place, and the immense Spiritual Power was instantly withdrawn back into the Heavenly Inquiry Spear!

This was a feint!

Xuan Hong reappeared, not having seen this happen. His biggest problem at the moment was still the Ice-Strange Fire!

In just that moment, his entire palm was frozen, and he could imagine that with more time, his whole body would be frozen.

Then, he would be at the mercy of Lu Chen!

"Escape, I can only escape now!"

"Escape back to the Xuanyun Sect, then... find Ji Changchun!"

"If Ji Changchun dares to set me up, then let him attract the firepower for me!"

Thinking of running to the Eastern Domain to find help from the Nascent Souls of the Xuanyun Sect was no longer possible.

The journey was too long, and Xuan Hong feared he wouldn’t last that long.

Instead, returning to the Xuanyun Sect and then finding a chance to hide in a place of seclusion seemed feasible—he didn’t think Lu Chen could find him there!

After all, not even the entire Xuanyun Sect knew where his seclusion spot was!

Xuan Hong made a split-second decision to flee, not caring to engage Lu Chen in combat anymore, let alone killing Xuan Jian.

"Lu Chen, he’s escaping!"

Xuan Jian saw what was happening and didn’t have time to explain, hurriedly chasing after him!

"Ancestor, don’t chase!"

Lu Chen exclaimed in alarm, quickly calling out.

If Xuan Hong was truly determined to escape, with his current situation, not only could they not catch up, but it was also futile to try!

If he gave chase, what would become of Chu Zhongtian and the Xuanming Ice Snake?

"Lu Chen, when the time comes, come find me at the Xuanyun Sect!"

Xuan Jian left these words behind and went off into the distance. Lu Chen opened his mouth but ultimately said nothing.

However, he wasn’t worried.

Because from the start, Lu Chen had intended to use the Ice-Strange Fire to freeze Xuan Jian into an ice sculpture.

Of course, if he could kill him during the fight, that wouldn’t be bad either.

"Sigh, I should go save Xiaobai first!"

Lu Chen glanced at the broken snake corpse on the ground, only then realizing that it was the Xuanming mother ice snake!

"Could it be... the secret realm has undergone another anomaly?"

Lu Chen only knew the general situation of what had happened in the secret realm, as Chu Zhongtian had told him.

And there had been no word from Xuan Jian.

"It seems I need to talk to Xuan Jian to find out more about the situation in the Eastern Domain..."

Lu Chen withdrew his gaze and looked toward the deep pit. Feeling certain that there was no danger left, he took a flight into the deep pit and brought out the Xuanming Ice Snake!

"Xiaobai, I’m here to save you now!"

With a flick of his hand, the Chaos Spirit Power instantly transformed into Wood Spirit Power. After achieving the Nascent Soul, Lu Chen had a more nuanced control of Spiritual Power, able to manipulate it with a mere thought.

The Wood Spirit Power, with its profound Vitality Force, surged into the body of the Xuanming Ice Snake.

Gradually, the Xuanming Ice Snake’s breathing began to grow stronger.

Only when Lu Chen felt he had stabilized its life force did he switch Spiritual Power and use Water Spirit Power to heal the Xuanming Ice Snake’s almost shattered head!

"That should be good enough. Now to check on Chu Zhongtian and see how he’s doing."

Both the snake and the man were in poor shape, and Lu Chen couldn’t afford to neglect one over the other.

He looked once more toward the pit and flew down into it.

"Lu Dao... Senior!"

Chu Zhongtian had just refined the medicinal power of the pill, and his complexion looked much better. But upon seeing Lu Chen, his address changed.

Lu Chen feigned anger immediately, "Brother Chu, how can it be that upon my breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Stage, you begin to act distant with me?"

Chu Zhongtian gave a wry smile and clasped his hands in salute, "Brother Lu Dao!"

"Hahaha!"

Lu Chen laughed heartily and then said, "Follow me above. Once Xiaobai is better, we will go to the Xuanyun Sect together!"

"Brother Lu Dao, didn’t you say... we were going to the Eastern Domain?"

Chu Zhongtian was taken aback, asking subconsciously.

"We’ll go to the Eastern Domain, but first... let’s go to the Xuanyun Sect, kill Xuan Hong, and save Xuan Jian!"
