Chapter 1373: Chapter 1373: Nether Clan High Priest

Su Chengyu’s sudden appearance caught Yu Ming completely by surprise, yet her words lacked any gratitude or joy at that moment.

In Yu Ming’s eyes, what Su Chengyu saw was some blame and incomprehension.

But right now, Su Chengyu could not afford to worry about that. After severing the Long Whip, he quickly reached Yu Ming’s side and grabbed her, who was still in shock, saying,

"Let’s go!"

That decisive word showed that Su Chengyu had already assessed the current situation.

Without engaging in combat, and the opponent not even revealing a sliver of technique, Su Chengyu already knew that even if they joined forces, they would stand no chance against their adversary, and thus he made the instant decision to flee.

The blonde woman was indeed surprised, but how could Su Chengyu’s movements escape her vigilance?

The woman struck instantly, her Long Whip whipping out again, spinning in the air like a dart towards them.

Su Chengyu didn’t look back, just raised his hand and unleashed the True Dragon Technique he had prepared in advance.

The Long Whip collided with the True Dragon, and in just an instant the True Dragon was cleaved in two by the Long Whip, completely vanishing between heaven and earth.

During this brief interval, Su Chengyu and Yu Ming had already reached the vicinity of the Tower of Eternal Winter, clearly intending to forcibly break through the tower and escape.

"Thinking of escaping? Not so easy!"

The indifferent voice echoed in their ears. The blonde woman had appeared among them without notice, reaching out to grab Yu Ming.

However, this grab, imbued with a Secret Technique, missed entirely—her hand passed right through their figures.

The figures of the two, which had been indistinguishable from real bodies, turned utterly illusory as the woman approached.

Before the blonde woman could react, their figures hit the wall and vanished without a trace.

This trick of seeming to merge into the wall was certainly not within their power to perform, and the blonde woman’s caution just then made her understand that the figures she had been focusing on from the beginning were thorough decoys.

But as she recalled the brief moments after Su Chengyu appeared, she could not determine at all how Su Chengyu managed to replace himself with an illusion under her watchful eyes, and even up to her approach, she had noticed nothing amiss.

The woman turned her gaze back inside the tower, but the entire space was devoid of any figures.

"Dammit!"

Su Chengyu’s unexpected appearance, and he had not only vanished before her eyes, but even Yu Ming had been taken away with him; how could this not agitate the blonde woman?

Her agitated punch landed on the Tower of Eternal Winter, her full force strike not leaving any mark on the sturdy midsection of the Tower of Eternal Winter.

If she couldn’t achieve it, she wondered why the two of them had opted for this choice, realizing it had been a ruse all along!

The woman had been worried that Su Chengyu might truly have managed to take Yu Ming and escape the tower.

After all, if they really had left, even if she pursued them without care for exposure, given the vastness of the world outside, she had no confidence in capturing them.

So it was all just a Blind Eye Technique!

Having found her answer, the blonde woman, who had swept through the entire tower without finding either of them, now snapped her fingers.

Two plumes of black smoke rose, and two grey-skinned individuals appeared before the blonde woman, kneeling on one knee as they spoke.

"High Priest, what are your orders?"

"Notify everyone, search the entire middle section thoroughly, dig down three feet if needed, but find those two people for me."

"Yes!"

The two individuals, clearly of the Nether Clan, responded, while the blonde woman herself cast her gaze around to ensure they weren’t nearby before she left the area.

"Phew!"

And at the instant the blonde woman’s figure disappeared, accompanied by an odd sound, a mouthful of fresh blood spurted out from Su Chengyu’s mouth.

Yu Ming immediately asked, "Su Chengyu, are you alright?"

Su Chengyu shook his head to indicate he was fine: "Just spitting out some blood, won’t die."

Looking at Su Chengyu’s matter-of-fact response, Yu Ming was somewhat astonished; she didn’t understand what Su Chengyu had gone through to become accustomed to it to such an extent.

"That woman is very strong; I had to withstand that strike to make it seem like you and I were mere phantoms, but fortunately, we managed to deceive her."

Su Chengyu slowly spoke, looking in the direction where the woman had disappeared, and continued, "Who is that woman? How skilled is she?"

"Not a clue! And you still have the mind to ask me these questions at this time? Do you even realize what it means that you forced your way into the middle section and exposed yourself?"

Having one more person meant one more risk. Furthermore, according to the original plan, Su Chengyu was not supposed to appear here at all.

Su Chengyu could enter the middle section, but definitely not under these circumstances.

The two had also pre-practiced what Su Chengyu should do in case of an emergency.

However, Su Chengyu’s actions right now were clearly disregarding the previous discussions entirely.

Su Chengyu gave a wry smile: "Sorry, I can’t bring myself to leave someone to die. Besides, the outcome shows that my arrival was crucial, otherwise you..."

Out of consideration for Yu Ming’s pride, Su Chengyu left his sentence half-finished.

But even then, Yu Ming understood what Su Chengyu meant; although she still couldn’t comprehend Su Chengyu’s actions, as the rescued party, it really wasn’t appropriate for her to demand more from Su Chengyu at this moment.

Taking a deep breath to calm herself, she looked at Su Chengyu and asked, "What do you plan to do next? Since you’re here, you must have some plan for escaping, right?"

Su Chengyu immediately shook his head upon hearing this.

A plan?

His presence here was impromptu; how could anything have been any less considered when he realized there might be trouble on Yu Ming’s side? He hadn’t had the time to worry about the multitude.

The forceful sword strike and the Heaven-Mending Stone’s deceptive capabilities fooled the blonde woman’s eyes, but that did not mean they were completely safe now.

As long as they were inside the tower, they were undoubtedly in a passive situation.

After all, they couldn’t afford any mistakes now. If captured by the woman again, she certainly wouldn’t give Su Chengyu another chance to use such tactics.

"Yu Ming Saint Envoy, who is that woman? What level is she at?"

Su Chengyu’s sword strike wasn’t particularly powerful; the primary reason it had managed to sever the Long Whip was due to the woman utilizing her maximum strength to restrict Yu Ming’s movements.

In a head-on fight, Su Chengyu had no confidence.

"The Red Robed High Priest is second only to the High Priest, and someone who holds such a position would at least be at the Peak of the Hollow Void."
