Chapter 352: Chapter 351: The Thrill Was Too Much, He Couldn’t Handle It

Chaoyan whispered the situation to Xie Jiuniang.

Xie Jiuniang was stunned, "Is Master serious?"

"You can verify it again." Chaoyan knew that if his disciple could use Time Retrospection once, she could use it a second time.

Xie Jiuniang nodded.

Jian Lingyan felt numb, "Dog owner, your ability has been exposed, and in front of your Master and Vermilion Bird no less."

"That doesn’t matter anymore."

She didn’t take out the Time Leaf, using the technique directly, so others had limited understanding anyway, and besides, Chaoyan’s character was trustworthy.

She initiated Time Retrospection once more.

This time, Xie Jiuniang was much calmer, and in the last moment as the great formation self-destructed, a force transferred the people in the city away, while the several loud noises afterward were from the execution of the Divinity Transformation infiltrators.

Xie Jiuniang repeatedly reviewed that moment.

She discovered that two Divinity Transformation beings had escaped.

For the final time, using Time Retrospection, she continued to review the bits and pieces of these years.

Regarding her parents’ departure, Xie Jiuniang couldn’t hide her anxiety. The Transmission Array had been destroyed, and she couldn’t use it to find them.

Out of the desire to protect her parents and her family, Xie Jiuniang used the Time Leaf to erase the traces of this space, so that even if someone else used Time Retrospection, they wouldn’t find any information.

Chaoyan then took Xie Jiuniang to the North City Gate, "There was a great battle here."

As expected, Xie Jiuniang used the technique of retrospection to investigate what had happened here.

Being at the sixth level of the Golden Core, she could retrospect up to sixty-four years back in time, and with her Spiritual Soul reaching the Nascent Soul stage, her frequent use of Time Retrospection today was still effortless.

Chaoyan was quite astonished.

Vermilion Bird also felt it was inconceivable.

A Divinity Transformation being using Time Retrospection might not find it as easy as Xie Jiuniang did; using it once a day would be quite impressive, let alone repeatedly like Xie Jiuniang, and still acting as if it were nothing.

Vermilion Bird speculated, "Your disciple must have thoroughly mastered the Law of Time."

Chaoyan agreed in his heart.

Vermilion Bird couldn’t help but feel schadenfreude, "Little Chaoyan, you must work hard. This Divine Beast can foresee the day when you will be surpassed by your disciple."

Chaoyan’s eyelids twitched.

As a Master, being surpassed by his disciple...

Just thinking about it was embarrassing!

While Chaoyan and Vermilion Bird were speaking privately, Xie Jiuniang had already used the Time Leaf to look back at the events that took place outside the North City Gate.

[Outside the city, there were four Divinity Transformation beings, confronting Pulang.

Pulang scoffed coldly: "Ao Zhan!"

After a few exchanges with Ao Zhan, Pulang clashed with him. Later, the three other watching Divinity Transformation beings joined in, attacking Pulang. When danger arose, another joined the battlefield.

This individual was a half-step into Divinity Transformation.

In the midst of breakthrough, they used the Thunder Tribulation intended for Divinity Transformation to save Pulang, "Thank you, senior, for protecting my Xie Family. Our clan cannot escape this calamity; I wouldn’t want to involve innocent people."

The Xie Family ancestor appeared, telling Pulang to leave.

After allowing the injured Pulang to depart, the Xie Family ancestor alone held off Ao Zhan and the others.

In the end, embracing one Divinity Transformation being, he self-detonated...]

Emerging from the river of time, sorrow welled up in Xie Jiuniang’s heart. Tears threatened to spill out again; she blinked hard, pushing the tears back. Now was not the time to grieve.

This vengeance must be avenged.

However, she stood still in place for a long while.

Vermilion Bird said with pity, "Little disciple has seen something distressing again, sigh."

"Then we’ll find a way to let her vent her frustrations."

Keeping frustrations bottled up for a long time in one’s heart can lead to problems.

Chaoyan took his disciple and searched the surroundings once more, then headed in a certain direction.

In the end, they found a mountaintop.

Jian Lingyan cautiously reminded, "Master, there’s a Divinity Transformation being hiding in the mountain, healing their injuries."

"Do you know who it was?"

"Never encountered them before," Jian Lingyan said in a soft and fine voice.

Before Xie Jiuniang could speak, Chaoyan said, "Disciple, your mentor is here to stand up for you. You find a place to hide for a while and don’t get discovered."

Upon hearing this, Xie Jiuniang immediately found a distant spot to hide.

Chaoyan had long been aware of her ability to conceal herself. Just like now, even though he knew where she was hiding, when he used his Divine Sense to probe, he still couldn’t detect anyone there.

Chaoyan approached a certain mountainside cliff.

He struck the cliff with his palm.

The sound of rumbling came from within the mountain, as if something had collapsed. Then, a figure tumbled out from the belly of the mountain in a sorry state.

"Chaoyan? It’s you!"

The person who flew out spoke with a tone filled with hatred.

Chaoyan said indifferently, "Ao Zhan, you’re unlucky to have encountered me."

Before his words finished, an unexpected killing move made a straight attack for Ao Zhan’s face.

Ao Zhan despised Chaoyan for attacking while talking, but at this moment, he didn’t want to fight with Chaoyan. His injuries were severe, and his strength was not even one-tenth of what it was at its peak.

He feigned a move, as if preparing to take Chaoyan’s strike, but in reality, he turned to flee.

He had come to the Eastern Region with old injuries.

He thought that wiping out the Xie Family would be a simple matter. Who would have thought that the Xie Family, despite being reduced to a second-rate family, was still tough. Out of seven people, only two had escaped.

His survival was thanks to a secret treasure of his family.

In fact, Ao Zhan didn’t even consider it.

How could the small Xie Family possess a treasure and pass it down till now without some tricks up their sleeves?

Perhaps Ao Zhan’s luck had run out!

He had intended to flee in a direction that Chaoyan would not expect, but as it happened, he teleported right to where Xie Jiuniang was hiding.

"Time, freeze!"

Ao Zhan, who had just escaped a short distance, suddenly felt the world around him change, time slowed down before his eyes, and his movements also became sluggish. Realizing his predicament, he couldn’t help but show a look of panic.

A moment was enough for him to lose his life!

Xie Jiuniang didn’t even need to use Broken Sword; Chaoyan had already thrust his sword through Ao Zhan’s heart, then twisted his wrist.

The heart was instantly minced, and the body was lifeless.

Almost at the same time, a Spiritual Soul flew out.

Chaoyan was about to disperse the soul to prevent it from escaping.

A streak of silver light flashed, faster than him, snatching the soul away before he could act.

Chaoyan was stunned, "What was that?"

When he saw the silver light fly back into his disciple’s body.

Ignoring the body on the ground, Chaoyan teleported beside Xie Jiuniang and asked anxiously, "Disciple, are you all right?"

Xie Jiuniang shook her head dryly, "Mentor, I have captured the Spiritual Soul, you don’t have to worry, I haven’t been possessed."

"Are you sure there’s no problem?" Chaoyan examined her closely.

With an unchanged expression, Xie Jiuniang thought for a moment but still revealed a bit, "It was captured by one of my Spiritual Artifacts."

Time Leaf is a Spiritual Artifact, right?

For now, just consider it a Spiritual Artifact then.

Seeing this, Chaoyan decided not to say anything more, but he remained internally vigilant. A Divinity Transformation soul entering the Sea of Consciousness could cause serious trouble if not handled properly.

Vermilion Bird mocked Chaoyan for being overly concerned, "You’re worrying too much. That streak of silver light seems like a treasure of time, probably not of this world. A mere soul is nothing more than a little snack to it."

"A soul of Divinity Transformation, just a little snack?"

Chaoyan’s heart pounded.

The shock was too much for him to bear.

Unknown to Xie Jiuniang was the conversation between Vermilion Bird and her mentor, and that her mentor was greatly shaken.

Suddenly, Chaoyan looked up in a direction, collected Ao Zhan’s body from the ground, and grabbed Xie Jiuniang with one move.
