The two soaring snakes looked fearfully at Xu Baisheng. In a split second, both of them turned to flee, but Xu Baisheng captured and threw them at Huang Xiaolongâs feet, with a grab and throw gesture with his hand.
Lin Bi and these two soaring snakes were akin to babies who had just learned to crawl, against Xu Baisheng strength.
Lin Bi lifted his head as he struggled from the ground. There was fear, disbelief, and denial in his eyes as he looked at Xu Baisheng. âThis seemingly cute demonic beast was actually a mid-level Ancestor God Realm master? Maybe even a high-level Ancestor God Realm master?!â
How is this possible?!
âHow could a high-level demonic beast be willing to serve a human master who is not an Ancestor God Realm master?â
âKiddo, you didnât think this would come to pass when you were relentlessly trying to kill us, did you?â The little cowâs face split into a wide grin that showed off her sparkling white teeth.
Lin Bi forced down his fear and said, âI am an Elder of Short Blade Gate. If you kill me, you wonât be able to escape the Short Blade Gateâs pursue. We have our sectâs experts everywhere on this Devil Prison Mountain, not to mention, our Gate Chief and Vice-Gate Chief are just nearby.â
The Yellow Springs Road was just ahead of them, therefore, Huang Xiaolong did not doubt Lin Bi when he said that a lot of Short Blade Gateâs experts as well as the Short Blade Gateâs Chief and Vice-Gate Chief were nearby.
âThen again, so what?â Huang Xiaolong sneered.
Just as Huang Xiaolong was about to order Xu Baisheng to kill Lin Bi, several sounds of whistling winds could be heard. Five figures were flying towards them at an alarming speed, and reached Huang Xiaolongâs group in a few breaths.
Lin Bi couldnât hide the joy on his face as he saw these five people. He smiled in relief, as he thought that he had escaped death.
The five people were none other than the Short Blade Gateâs Grand Elders as well as the Golden Phoenix Pavilionâs Grand Elders.
The strong energy fluctuations from when Xu Baisheng had killed the three Golden Phoenix Pavilionâs Elders had alarmed them.
With the emergence of the Yellow Springs Archdevilâs Treasure, the Short Blade Gate and Golden Phoenix Pavilionâs higher echelons had decided to form an alliance, thus all of the experts from both forces were grouping together. As a result of this alliance, the Short Blade Gate and Golden Phoenix Pavilionâs Grand Elders had appeared, alerted by the commotion.
âGrand Elder Wang Xiao!â
âGrand Elder Lin Chen!â
Lin Bi hastened to the two Short Blade Gateâs Grand Elders, and stood respectfully in front of them.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Short Blade Gateâs Grand Elder Wang Xiao, Grand Elder Lin Chen, and the other three Golden Phoenix Pavilionâs Grand Elders were all inwardly shocked at Lin Biâs heavy injuries.
âLin Bi, whatâs going on here?!â Lin Chen demanded sternly, while he was stared at Huang Xiaolongâs group.
Lin Bi lost his composure and half screamed, âElder Sun Tong and the others are dead! Itâs them! They killed Elder Sun Tong and the others, that black, that black demonic beast! It was that demonic beast!â He pointed shakily at Huang Xiaolong and the void devil beast Xu Baisheng.
W-whatâ?!
All five Grand Eldersâ eyes were wide in shock. âSun Tong is dead?â
Sun Tong was their Golden Phoenix Pavilionâs Headâs personal disciple! But he had died, and on top of that he was killed by the people in front of them!
"That kid, had stolen a lot of our Short Blade Gateâs Eidolon Crystalline Rocks, and had also killed our Short Blade Gateâs disciples almost two years ago. Today, he killed Sun Tong and the others for the Chaos Yin Spirit Fruit!" Lin Bi quickly added.
Eidolon Crystalline Rocks!
Chaos Yin Spirit Fruits!
Wang Xiao, Lin Chen, and the rest turned to look at the cliff wall in the distance. They could see a dozen dark green glowing Chaos Yin Spirit Fruits, with greed shining in their eyes.
âBut, Grand Elder Wang Xiao, that demonic beastâs strength is not low, Iâm afraid itâs probably a high-level Ancestor God Realm.â Lin Bu added at the end through voice transmission to Wang Xiao.
Wang Xiaoâs gaze swept over Xu Baisheng, he then sneered, âItâs merely a demonic beast that has just broken through to Seventh Order Ancestor God Realm.â
The heavy stone in Lin Biâs chest disappeared at Wang Xiaoâs reply.
Wang Xiao was a late-Seventh Order Ancestor God Realm master. His strength ranked second among all of Short Blade Gateâs Grand Elders. Since Wang Xiao had claimed that the black demonic beast had just broken through to Seventh Order Ancestor God Realm, then it must definitely be true.
As Feng Er, Gui Yi, and the others had concealed their strengths, they appeared no higher than mid-level Ancestor God Realm masters on the surface.
Wang Xiaoâs gaze moved from Xu Baisheng and finally stopped on Huang Xiaolong as he spoke icily, âThe Short Blade Gate has existed for thousands of years, this is the first time someone had the guts to kill our Short Blade Gateâs Elder. You will soon know what the consequences are.â Then he turned to the Golden Phoenix Pavilionâs three Grand Elders and said, âThree brothers, I will kill that demonic beast, but I leave the rest of them to you three. Weâll deal with the boy later, what do you think?â
The three Golden Phoenix Pavilionâs Grand Elders answered in unison: âSure!â
Wang Xiao stopped speaking and attacked first. In a split second, his palm had struck towards Xu Baisheng. This palm strike contained the full force of Wang Xiaoâs strength as he intended to kill Xu Baisheng in the shortest amount of time.
In his opinion, as long as Xu Baisheng was out of the picture, then dealing with the rest would be easy.
Short Blade Gateâs Grand Elder Lin Chen extended his hand through the air, and a force from his hand entangled Huang Xiaolong and the little cow. While the three Golden Phoenix Pavilionâs Grand Elders lunged towards Feng Er, Gui Yi, and the others.
Right at this time, Feng Er who had been quiet for this whole time, suddenly raised her slender hand and pushed lightly in the air.
The force from Lin Chenâs hand that was aimed at capturing Huang Xiaolong and the little cow was forced back by a whelming power. Lin Chen couldnât even think to retaliate against this power. Lin Chen looked at Feng Er, as he tracked the source of this overwhelming power, and his eyes widened in astonishment.
In the next second, Lin Chen shrieked as he flew down like a broken kite.
Lin Chenâs shriek was so sudden and unexpected that Wang Xiao as well as the three Golden Phoenix Pavilionâs Grand Elders turned to look, and saw a miserable Lin Chen embedded into the ground. Their faces turned sullen at this sight.
Feng Er did not stop at that. Her wrist turned and her palm forced rushed towards Wang Xiao. At the same time, Gui Yi, Gui Er, and Gui San all simultaneously swung their fists at the three Golden Phoenix Pavilionâs Grand Elders.
In an instant, frigid ghost qi covered the sky above them, taking the shapes of ghost kings.
Wang Xiao and the othersâ pupils contracted in fear, as they were punched into the air, and soon they also ended up like Lin Chen, embedded in the ground.
The tide had turned too quickly. Lin Bi turned woodenly to look at Wang Xiao and the other four Grand Elders who were half buried in the ground. A moment later, Lin Bi came to his senses, but coldness numbed his limbs. He quivered uncontrollably.
Huang Xiaolong looked coldly at Lin Chen then signaled the void devil beast Xu Baisheng. Xu Baishengâs palm slammed down. The ground shook from the impact as Lin Bi was flattened on the ground.
But at this time, a figure flew out and as it tried to escape Huang Xiaolongâs group. However, his strength was much weaker than Lin Biâs original strength, merely at the peak of late-Tenth Order Ancient God Realm.
âAvatar!â Huang Xiaolong and the others exclaimed in surprise.
In general, rarely any Ancestor God Realms kept their avatars within their own main bodies. This was risky, as the avatar could still survive, even if the main body was killed.
For instance, Sun Tong and the others did not have their avatars within the main bodies when they were killed.
Xu Baisheng instantly destroyed Lin Biâs avatar with a flick of his fingers.
A few minutes later, Huang Xiaolong collected the dozen Chaos Yin Spirit Fruits, as well as the spatial rings belonging to Lin Bi, Wang Xiao, Lin Chen, and the three Golden Phoenix Pavilionâs Grand Elders. Huang Xiaolong did not forget their godheads. Without bothering to clean up the scene, he sped off on the little cow, with Feng Er and the rest following behind them.
Not long after Huang Xiaolongâs group had left this scene, space rippled as another powerful presence descended on it. They were the Short Blade Gate and Golden Phoenix Pavilionâs experts.
Roughly an hour later, Huang Xiaolongâs group appeared at the beginning of a bloody road.
Unknown beastsâ blood flowed on this bloody road, and on the two edges of the bloody path was roiling yellow-colored water. This yellow-colored water could make any cultivatorâs heart palpitate, as a strong stench from this yellow-water permeated the air.
This was the Yellow Springs Road!
Huang Xiaolongâs eyes narrowed solemnly.
