Chapter 2409: Chapter 2429: Li Qianxing Wants to Put on a Big Show

The woman in red clothes lightly tapped her finger, and a red light fell into the body of Ghost True Man.

The Ghost True Man had burnt his life force in an attempt to shatter this realm of Heaven and Earth, and was on the brink of death, but when the red light entered his body, his condition dramatically improved.

Lin Chen retracted his avatar into the Linglong Tower, and now that it had come to this, it was time to rely on his true skills.

Lin Chen did not rush to ask True Person Tai Xu for help; this was his last hidden card, and he would not use it unless absolutely necessary.

He didn’t know the woman’s identity, only that she was a Quasi-Saint like True Person Tai Xu. Did Tai Xu know her, was she friend or foe, and could he suppress her?

The many uncertainties filled the situation with variables.

Intuition told Lin Chen that even if True Person Tai Xu intervened, he might not be able to rescue them from the woman in red clothes.

The woman in red clothes knew the Master of Qi and recognized Qi’s name, and she said she wasn’t an enemy; given this, it may well be an opportunity.

As for the test the woman in red clothes spoke of, then let it come.

As a Quasi-Saint, if she really wanted to do something to him, she would have done it directly—why beat around the bush?

If there was an opportunity, then he should give it a try. If he passed the test, he might even gain something extra.

The woman in red clothes swept her gaze over everyone and smiled, "Go back to the place we were just now. I will open a Teleportation Gate. Go in obediently without any tricks, or else, you’ll bear the consequences yourself."

After the woman in red clothes spoke, her figure instantly vanished into the darkness, disappearing from sight.

The people exchanged glances, and Master Floating Cloud broke the silence with a smile, "Things are a bit better than we expected; at least we won’t all be killed."

Liuyun also comforted everyone, "To live is to have opportunities. Besides, didn’t she just say that if we meet the goals she set, she would let us leave?"

Master Floating Cloud turned to look at the Linglong Tower and said, "Qi, you and her..."

Qi replied calmly, "I don’t know her, and she won’t show me any favor. You’ll have to rely on yourselves."

Master Floating Cloud bowed slightly, "Of course, if it weren’t for fellow cultivator Qi, she wouldn’t have given us a second look or this opportunity. Anyway, we’re already very grateful to fellow cultivator Qi."

Ghost True Man, originally weakened to the extreme, was revitalized by the Red Light treatment, and darkly sneered, "It seems I have Heaven’s favor; I am alive once more. You must all be disappointed!"

The people looked at each other, their expressions subtly complex.

At that time, Ghost True Man had been ruthlessly pursued by Master Floating Cloud for elimination. In desperation, he tried to drag everyone to death with him, but unexpectedly, the woman in red clothes did not want to lose such a valuable labor force and miraculously saved his life.

The woman in red clothes had saved him and spoken her terms; naturally, they dared not attempt to kill him now, and they simply pretended not to hear his biting sarcasm.

Ghost True Man sneered, "I am, after all, someone who has already died once. This life is a bonus, and I hope in the coming days, you don’t give me the opportunity, or you will certainly regret not taking the chance to kill me thoroughly inside the Tower!"

Master Floating Cloud calmly responded, "No matter where we are, if I could kill you once, I can kill you a second time."

The cold smile on Ghost True Man’s face suddenly stiffened; for a moment, he could find no words to rebut and only snorted coldly, then turned his head away.

As Ghost True Man turned, his gaze met Lou Yihan’s. Their eyes locked, and Lou Yihan’s expression instantly changed, and he took two steps back.

Ghost True Man sneered, "You, my good disciple, actually brought outsiders to kill your master. Yihan, just pray that you don’t fall into my hands, or I will surely cherish you, just like I did your third senior brother."

Lou Yihan’s body trembled slightly, and a boundless fear appeared in his eyes. Clearly, Ghost True Man’s words had triggered the terrifying memories hidden in Lou Yihan’s heart.

Lou Yihan hastened his steps and quickly ran to the sides of Master Floating Cloud and Lin Chen, clearly determined to stick close to them so that Ghost True Man wouldn’t get the chance to harm him.

Master Floating Cloud didn’t refuse his approach; although Lou Yihan was no saint and had committed his share of evil deeds, in the end, he had been forced by Ghost True Man and was somewhat pitiable, earning some sympathy from the group.

Without further ado, the people headed straight back to the place they had just been.

When the people arrived, a brilliant Teleportation Gate had already appeared in the dark midair, strikingly conspicuous in the pitch-black night.

The dark and dense group of adventurers gathered together, led by Li Qianxing, whom they had previously encountered.

Li Qianxing, emanating a dazzling radiance, hovered in midair and declared loudly, "I am Li Qianxing, Elder Taishang of the Soul Separation Sect under the Twelve Immortal Sects of Myriad Immortal Hall. I ask the Master of the Secret Realm to present herself."

No sooner had Li Qianxing’s voice faded than a cold and calm female voice resounded in the skies, like thunderbolts from the ninth heaven, echoing throughout the Secret Realm.

"In half a month, the Secret Realm will be destroyed. Those who wish to live, enter the Teleportation Gate in the far north of the Secret Realm."
