Chapter 347 - 270: Sun Spirit Envoy!
Chapter 347: Chapter 270: Sun Spirit Envoy!
Several dozen miles outside the City, there lies a secluded bamboo forest.
The silence here is deathly quiet, with only the occasional wind rustling through the bamboo leaves, creating a whispered sigh; few dare to come.
However, upon entering this bamboo forest, a chill beyond description washes over you, and the ghastly sight ahead instantly causes one’s scalp to tingle.
On the ground, Bai Gu lay scattered haphazardly, each covered with a colored robe.
The robes are multicolored, red like congealed blood, green like dark mist, and blue like the chilly night pool.
Though the robe colors vary, the embroidered patterns on them are identical.
At the center of each robe is a large, strikingly black bird-shaped motif.
Profound Bird Guard!
Before the remains of the Profound Bird Guard on the ground, deep within the dense bamboo forest, four figures stand, barely visible.
The next moment, the figure at the center of the four suddenly bursts forth with an intense aura.
"Not good, retreat quickly!"
With a shout, the surrounding silence is shattered.
Before the words fade, the person transforms into a dazzling streak, moving faster than the eye can catch.
In an instant, he vanishes into the eerie bamboo forest.
The remaining three, not hesitating at all, promptly chase in the direction the first figure disappeared.
In a fleeting moment, as the four figures hurriedly departed, only the rustling of bamboo in the breeze remains.
And the silent remains of the Profound Bird Guard on the ground, quietly narrating the prior chaos.
In just a few brief breaths, a striking purple light unexpectedly appears in the air.
In an instant, the mysterious purple glow illuminates the eerie bamboo forest.
Following that, the brilliantly purple light, like a mighty, surging flood.
Cascades downward with an irresistible force from above.
Where the purple glow reaches, a sudden gale rises, bamboo leaves fly, sweeping the entire bamboo forest in a blink.
As if engulfing all secrets in this dazzling ocean of purple light.
Then, those chaotic and morbid remains of the Profound Bird Guard.
Disappear entirely in this sea of purple light.
At first glance, everything seems to return to its past tranquility.
Yet upon closer inspection, a faint air fluctuation still lingers.
As if hinting that a mysterious figure, using a secret and powerful method.
Quietly collected those exposed remains.
And this mysterious figure is none other than Lu Xuan, who hurried from the City.
The purple light flashes and dissipates, and a crack opens in the void.
A figure gracefully steps out and floats quietly in mid-air.
His black robes flutter lightly in the wind, exuding an indescribable powerful aura.
Who else but Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan’s eyes are deep as an abyss, within them reflects boundless universe.
Standing with hands behind, his gaze directed towards the distant horizon, his eyes filled with certainty and confidence.
The escape routes of those four people are already clear in Lu Xuan’s mind.
Even if they flee to the ends of the earth, they cannot escape Lu Xuan’s grasp.
Before Lu Xuan, a faint trace of aura floats.
This aura is subtle as a thread in the wind, vanishing unnoticed into the air.
However, this thread of aura is tightly encased in a circle of purple flames.
The purple flames leap and surge, with a chilling majesty in its glow, firmly suppressing the aura, making it unable to escape.
The seemingly insignificant aura conceals mystery, it represents the mysterious power bestowed upon Yuan Feng.
Through this aura, Lu Xuan can capture the one behind controlling it within a hundred-mile radius.
Ten miles away, the four figures streak through the endless sky like meteors chasing the moon, fleeing relentlessly.
At this moment, a clear female voice came from among the four, accurately reaching the ears of the other three amidst the howling wind.
"Tang Yun, what exactly did you see?"
The man flying in the forefront did not slow down at the inquiry, on the contrary, he sped up.
"Stop the nonsense, Jiang Yan!" the man calls out loudly, his voice full of anxiety and tension.
"Lu Xuan, cannot be resisted!"
"We could die!"
The moment the words were uttered, before Jiang Yan and the other two could contemplate their meaning.
Suddenly!
As if they simultaneously sensed some mortal threat, all four halt abruptly in mid-air.
It’s as if time has frozen, everyone ceases to move.
At this moment, the four gazing ahead, shock written in their eyes.
In the void ahead, without knowing when, a young figure quietly appears.
The young man stands calmly with arms across his chest, floating quietly, his robes fluttering in the wind, his expression serene.
Yet his presence forms an insurmountable barrier, blocking the four’s path.
Standing in front, Tang Yun’s eyes fall on the young man’s face.
Tang Yun’s pupils suddenly contract, his face reveals profound dread.
His lips twitch faintly, jaw clenched, as if every word is heavy as a thousand pounds, straining to squeeze out two words from his throat.
