Chapter 1593: Chapter 1613: Endless Disasters_1

Wanhua Palace Flying Boat.

Chu Jiaxue paced anxiously back and forth in the center of the room.

In her hand, she held a miniature version of the Qiqiao Hall, given to her by Lin Chen before he appeared.

The Qiqiao Hall suddenly flashed with radiance, intensifying spiritual energy fluctuations in the air, and an oval light sphere, as tall as a person, appeared out of thin air in the room.

Amidst the shimmering light, Lin Chen stepped out of the light sphere.

Chu Jiaxue’s eyes brightened, her heart that had been hanging in suspense finally settled, and she sighed heavily in relief.

"Are you okay?"

Lin Chen glanced around and casually threw out a soundproofing spell before he started to speak, "I’m fine. I ditched her nearly three thousand miles away. Right now, she’s blasting in the mountains, trying to dig me out..."

Admiration filled Chu Jiaxue’s eyes, "So she doesn’t know that you’ve already escaped?"

Lin Chen nodded, "Correct, she thinks I’m hiding in the mountains, concealing my Breath. That was indeed my previous tactic. But now with Qiqiao Hall, I can appear three thousand miles away..."

In admiration, Chu Jiaxue praised, "This is truly a top-tier life-saving Magical Treasure."

Lin Chen replied with a laugh, "I had no prior contact with her, so she couldn’t place any spells on me. Hence, she can’t lock onto my exact location. Now that there’s a distance of three thousand miles, I placed a Death Mark on myself to conceal my life energy, and she should not be able to detect me."

Chu Jiaxue sighed in relief, "That’s good. So what’s the plan now?"

Lin Chen answered, "To avoid causing any trouble, I will temporarily hide in your room and avoid meeting others. I think although Zou Manhua has gone mad after losing me, she probably won’t come back and trouble you all, especially since this is the Wanhua Palace. She can’t possibly be that crazy!"

Chu Jiaxue nodded, "Alright, you can stay in my room. Your body doesn’t leak out any life energy, so no one will be able to detect you."

"Great!"

Chu Jiaxue lowered her voice, "Elder Yue feels very sorry, saying he couldn’t protect you properly..."

Lin Chen smiled and said, "This is my master’s problem, it’s normal for me as a disciple to bear it. Besides, it doesn’t really concern the Wanhua Palace. And it’s a special time now, so don’t worry about it. The main reason I ran away was to avoid causing them trouble."

Of Lin Chen’s escape, besides Chu Jiaxue, no one was the wiser. Even Yue Muzhen did not expect that Lin Chen would dare to escape alone, facing the pursuit of Zou Manhua.

"You go about your business, don’t mind me."

"Ok!"

Chu Jiaxue handed over the Qiqiao Hall to Lin Chen and left the room.

Lin Chen took the Qiqiao Hall in his hand and sank into deep thought.

The flying boat had been away from the Azure Abyss Divine Palace for several days and was millions of miles away, and had deviated from the normal route, yet it was accurately pursued by Zou Manhua.

Zou Manhua had tampered with something!

Either she had tampered with the flying boat or with one of the Wanhua Palace’s disciples, allowing her to track it all the way here.

To find out exactly what she tampered with was virtually impossible. After all, a tracking brand, with so many people around, and on such a large flying boat, is not traceable at all.

Zou Manhua won’t be able to find me. Even if she can track the flying boat again, she probably wouldn’t come back to bother the flying boat, since she had already lost track of me.

Despite being a Celestial Immortal, she wouldn’t dare to come back and look for people, would she? Wouldn’t that be delivering herself to be slapped in the face?

While Zou Manhua was acting out of suspicion that Guo Qiuyu was seriously injured, she might threaten the others a bit, but she would not dare to launch a direct attack on the flying boat. After all, there’s not only Guo Qiuyu in the Wanhua Palace.

Moreover, even a seriously injured Late-stage Celestial Immortal is not someone Zou Manhua can match.

If I’m not worried about Zou Manhua anymore, are there other people I need to be concerned about?

I must be prepared!

Lin Chen sank into contemplation, after some time, he made a decision.

He looked around the room and then saw a bed in the room. It was a sturdy bed made from iron pear wood.

Lin Chen casually dug a hole in the sturdy bedpost and stuffed the Qiqiao hall into it.

After patting it twice, it was very sturdy.

Lin Chen looked around and stood up satisfied.

This trick is better not to be used, but it’s always good to be prepared.

He had considered letting Chu Jiaxue carry the Qiqiao hall and follow the flying boat at a distance, but if there were people tracking the flying boat, Chu Jiaxue would be at risk. He trusted others less, so the only option was this.

Fortunately, the Qiqiao Hall could block all exploration, and it itself had no spiritual fluctuations, just like an ordinary piece of iron, and would not be detected by others.

The flying boat of the Wanhua Palace should not be so unlucky as to have one disaster after another, right?

However, what you fear is always what happens.

"Bang!"

The door was suddenly pushed open, and Chu Jiaxue entered the room with a startled look on her face.

"We’re surrounded!"

Lin Chen’s face changed slightly, "Who?"

About twenty people, all wearing masks, unknown identities, but they’re all tough. The leader is a Celestial Immortal and is very strong!"

Wearing a mask?

Lin Chen moved to the window, looked out, and saw the flying boat had stopped moving. All the Protective Barriers had been activated, wrapping around the flying boat like a thick tortoise shell.

A row of cultivators in black masks formed a circle and encircled the flying boat. The leader was a tall and slender man, wearing a dark metal mask painted with a rather complicated pattern on his face.

Lin Chen’s pupils shrunk.

Heavenly Dao Alliance!

The people blocking the road were from the Heavenly Dao Alliance!
