Chapter 894: Chapter 894: Meeting Again!
Lu Jingzong hastily fed himself an elixir of the Quanzhen Sect, already sensing several faint killing intents.
After swallowing the medicine, Lu Jingzong, with a cold gaze, swept over the crowd and said, "If any of you harbor thoughts of taking advantage of the situation, just try it and see who dies under my blade first."
As Lu Jingzong spoke, a domineering aura swept around him. In his hand, he clutched several talismans and continued, "Or, let’s see who dares to taste the might of the Quanzhen Sect’s God’s Charms."
Even as disciples from the Taoist Holy Land, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. With the appearance of the God’s Charms, those who had intentions of looting became apprehensive, and the onlookers dispersed, with no one taking the chance to strike at Lu Jingzong.
Lu Jingzong also let out a sigh of relief. In truth, he was quite afraid. Although he had God’s Charms in hand, the injuries Lin An inflicted on him were quite severe, and his current strength was only about forty to fifty percent of his full capacity. Engaging in combat would indeed be dangerous.
Seeing the crowd scared off, Lu Jingzong hurried towards the ruins to check on Tang Jian, who was buried underneath, to see if he was still alive.
Lu Jingzong dug Tang Jian out from the ruins; Tang Jian was still breathing but had sustained grave injuries. Without prompt rescue, certain death was unavoidable.
Lu Jingzong transferred a wisp of Innate True Qi to Tang Jian to stabilize his condition. After a while, Tang Jian’s eyes fluttered open and he awoke.
"Brother Lu... how did it go?" Tang Jian asked weakly.
"We lost! That woman is very strong; I was powerless against her," said Lu Jingzong unwillingly.
"Then we must urgently contact our other fellow disciples, especially Brother Guo. Only when he takes action is there a chance to slay these two. The leak of the sect’s secret arts is a major event, and we absolutely cannot let it rest," said Tang Jian.
"I’m afraid even Brother Guo might not be her match. Moreover, I’ve made a wager with that youngster and taken a deadly oath. If I break the oath, I will die struck by lightning. Junior brother, I’m afraid this matter can no longer be pursued and must not be disclosed to anyone else," Lu Jingzong said.
"Brother Lu, you’re not the one acting, so it doesn’t count as breaking the oath," Tang Jian said.
"But I swore that Quanzhen wouldn’t hunt him down again. If our other brothers pursue him, the oath will still be fulfilled upon my person. You must keep a tight lid on this matter. You absolutely cannot tell the other brothers. Otherwise, my death will be miserable—Brother begs you!" Lu Jingzong said.
Tang Jian coughed several times, then said faintly, "Brother, you’re being foolish! The leak of the sect’s secret arts is such an urgent matter; how could you cover it up? To defend our sect, death is of no concern! Even if I don’t tell the other brothers, once we leave the Kunwu Realm, I must report to the sect and seek the elders’ judgment. Brother Lu, how can you be so afraid of death!"
Tang Jian was indeed loyal to the sect. In his eyes, the sect was above all, and nothing could surpass it.
Hearing this, Lu Jingzong frowned slightly, his eyes twitching before he said with a faint smile, "Junior brother speaks rightly; your senior brother was confused."
"Brother Lu truly understands the reason, after all," said Tang Jian with a smile on his face.
But soon after, Tang Jian’s smile stiffened, and he slowly lifted a finger to point at Lu Jingzong: "You... you..."
Before he could finish speaking, Tang Jian’s pupils dilated, his life force rapidly escaping, and he died and vanished.
"Junior brother Tang, don’t blame your senior brother for being heartless. You insisted on bringing this issue to light, and I was left with no choice but to send you on your way. A Daoist would rather betray his friends than perish himself; I certainly do not want to be struck to death by lightning."
Lu Jingzong had personally killed Tang Jian. Now, the only two who knew about the matter were himself and Tang Jian. Although there were quite a few spectators from the battle in Mist City, none were from the Quanzhen Sect, so it shouldn’t matter, and it was unlikely the news would reach the ears of his fellow brothers.
Upon confirming Tang Jian was dead, Lu Jingzong instantly wailed in a face full of sorrow, "Junior brother... Junior brother! How could you just die like this? Your senior brother is helpless, unable to save you, it’s all because I’m incompetent!"
Outside Mist City, Su Chengyu and Lin An rode the clouds and flew straight for Air Mulberry Valley. That day, the two had escaped into Mist City, successfully leaving the South District. The Sky Feather Clan also received the news and could only pull back their people, unable to continue pursuing Lin An.
When the two arrived near Air Mulberry Valley, they saw from afar sword Qi piercing the sky, and even through the air, they could vaguely sense the heat of the surging air waves.
"Someone has entered the Air Mulberry Valley," Su Chengyu said.
"After all, the Sky Feather Clan holds the Phoenix Divine Bone; we aren’t the only ones wanting to snatch it," Lin An said.
"The Sky Feather Clan is stronger than the Snake Tribe. Their leader is of the Nascent Soul Realm, and they also have the Qingming Demon Tree of the Demon Emperor Stage. The difficulty of attacking is significant, and ordinary people wouldn’t have the guts to try," Su Chengyu responded.
Lin An nodded and said, "Naturally! But, although I was injured and the Qingming Sealing Technique was used on me in that battle that day, the Sky Feather Clan Leader and the Qingming Demon Tree were also injured. They probably won’t be able to recover to their peak strength in a short period, so now it’s actually a vulnerable time for the Sky Feather Clan."
"Then let’s hurry over and take a look. We might catch the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind, and seize the opportunity to rest and await the weary," Su Chengyu suggested.
Just then, a figure flew over from outside Air Mulberry Valley, and an intense voice carried over immediately after.
"Su Chengyu! We meet again!"
Hearing the voice, Su Chengyu already knew who it was—it was none other than his younger brother, Yu Feng, who was eager to kill him and be rid of him once and for all.
Yu Feng flew before Su Chengyu, standing upon the clouds with eyes full of murderous intent.
"Your enemy?" Lin An inquired.
"A member of the Yu Clan. The annihilation of the Snake Tribe was done under his leadership," Su Chengyu replied indifferently.
"No wonder he harbors such a cutting killing intent towards you. Others struggled to break into the Queen’s Palace, only to end up working in vain, while you reaped all the benefits," Lin An said with a light, teasing laugh.
Seeing Su Chengyu, Yu Feng did not strike immediately, not because he had softened, but because his gaze was captured by Lin An at Su Chengyu’s side.
Yu Feng was an extremely proud and conceited man. Growing up, he had never taken a fancy to any woman. In his view, none were worthy of him—he believed only a woman of exceptional caliber could match his status.
The moment Yu Feng saw Lin An, he was instantly attracted by her appearance and aura, and his heart skipped a beat.
However, as he saw Lin An and Su Chengyu chatting and laughing with a familiar closeness, a strong wave of jealousy surged within his heart.
Such a beauty, how could Su Chengyu be worthy of her? He must possess her for himself.
As Yu Feng appeared, Yu Shuang and the other members of the Yu Clan also arrived flying through the air. However, inside Air Mulberry Valley, sword Qi still blazed brilliantly, clearly indicating that the ones attacking the Sky Feather Clan were not from the Yu Clan, but others.
Su Chengyu guessed that Yu Feng was probably also planning to catch the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind, by lying in ambush outside the valley with his people, waiting to move at the right moment and let those inside clash fiercely with the Sky Feather Clan.
