Chapter 1047 Red Ape; Slaughter

The two little girls huddled their heads together, stealthily peeking out from under the cover of the Vine King.

Though their cultivation was not high, their abilities were extraordinary.

Either they possessed an exceptional constitution or carried rare treasures, and besides, they were sheltered by the Vine King at the late stage of Foundation Establishment.

Not to mention,

their master Chen Ye was adept at concealing qi, and having learned from him, their own qi-concealing skills were naturally proficient.

Therefore,

neither Su Qingdai nor the attackers noticed the two little girls secretly watching.

"Extraordinary? Could it be those bad people from Huayue Mansion again?"

Qing Jun was angry,

Why did she keep running into these bad people everywhere she went!

Even now, while traveling in Yan Nan with her master, she bumped into them!

"It might not necessarily be Huayue Mansion... Before coming to Yan Nan, Senior Sister borrowed a lot of intelligence about the region from the sect, and I read some of it then."

Recalling carefully today, she said seriously,

"Medicine King Valley is considered a Holy Land in Yan Nan, but that doesn’t mean the Yannan Hundred Families have no dissent; there are many sects that don’t submit to Medicine King Valley. As for the Red Ape Sect mentioned by Su Qingdai, it is one of the few Body Cultivator sects... Regardless of the strength of the Red Ape Sect, Su Qingdai and her group have formidable cultivation, and they are all True Inheritors of Medicine King Valley. For someone to dare attack them, these three must at least be late-stage Foundation Establishment!"

While the two communicated secretly,

the three from the Red Ape Sect were already in fierce combat with Su Qingdai and her group.

"Stubbornly ignorant!"

With a sinister laugh, the One-Eyed Dragon’s veins bulged on his skin, and with a push of his hands, the large net abruptly contracted, making the surrounding air explode continuously.

Su Qingdai’s face was icy, her jade fingers flicked repeatedly, and the flying sword split into three, turning into three emerald-long rainbows, slashing toward the descending net.

Earlier, she was simply caught off guard; if it was a direct confrontation, this person would definitely not be her match!

The long rainbow crossed the sky; sword light spread everywhere.

The net was shredded into countless fragments.

Moreover, an emerald green little snake shot through the air, targeting the throat of the one-eyed man.

The One-Eyed Dragon’s expression changed.

This first True Inheritor of Medicine King Valley indeed lived up to her reputation; despite her young age, her spiritual power surpassed that of seasoned cultivators like him.

With a roar, his qi and blood surged.

As an elder of the Red Ape Sect, his flesh had long been tempered like refined iron.

With his fists clenched, the protruding veins on his body suddenly transformed into fiery serpents, writhing under his skin.

"Red Fiend Golden Body, activate!"

The One-Eyed Dragon shouted fiercely, and as the red defensive qi surged, the incoming emerald green snake was forcibly blown away mid-air before piercing his throat.

"Qing Huan!"

Su Qingdai shouted urgently, and the little snake fell back onto her shoulder.

With a fierce look in her eyes, she grasped the foundation of the One-Eyed Dragon’s abilities, and immediately joined her two fellow disciples in forming a formation to confront the enemy.

Though the One-Eyed Dragon could rely on his Red Fiend Golden Body to resist, he was still forced to retreat repeatedly by the group’s Sword Qi, his defensive qi dimming.

"Act!" the One-Eyed Dragon roared angrily.

"Roar——!"

Two roars, not sounding human, exploded from beneath the black cloaks, tearing the cloaks into pieces.

Fragments flew, and thick, barrel-sized beast arms emerged from beneath the cloaks, revealing two ferocious, fanged Red Ape heads.

"Demon Race!"

The graceful female Cultivator exclaimed in shock.

"Boom——!!"

The ape arms, with overwhelming power, struck the Sword Array.

"Pfft!"

The foremost sword-bearing male cultivator spat out a mouthful of blood.

Both Demon Apes were at the Foundation Establishment Seventh Layer, while he and his junior sister were only at the Foundation Establishment Sixth Layer. Even though he tried his best to drive the flying sword, the tremendous force instantly fractured his arm, causing him to stumble back dozens of steps before barely stabilizing himself, continuously coughing up blood,

"Senior Brother!"

The graceful female cultivator cried out in panic, but before she could complete the spell in her hand, the heavy fist of another Red Ape had already fiercely struck.

"Bang!"

Even though Su Qingdai gritted her teeth and split a ray of sword light to block it, the pouring aftershock still cruelly dismembered her right arm. She fell to the ground with a cry, clutching her severed arm, trembling in pain, tears streaming down her face.

"Woo woo... Wasn’t this supposed to be a simple investigation in Ten Thousand Medicines Celestial City? How come there are suddenly three late-stage Foundation Establishment assassins..."

The female cultivator’s heart was filled with despair.

Su Qingdai’s face turned slightly pale, and although she was holding on with deep resources and the little snake, the pressure of facing three opponents at once became overwhelmingly difficult to bear.

The two little girls watched the scene unfold clearly.

"Ya!"

Qing Jun widened her big eyes, tugged at Jin’er somewhat unexpectedly, and whispered,

"Jin’er, look quickly! The Red Ape Sect... actually has Red Apes?! Could this be a Demon Race sect? This is the first time Qing Jun has seen a Demon Race sect!"

"No, that’s not the case."

Jin’er’s expression slightly tensed as she searched her memory, explaining,

"According to records, the Red Ape Sect claims that its founding ancestor, deep in the Great Marsh years ago, observed the ancient exotic beast Scarlet Refining Demon Ape consume the morning sun and temper its flesh, received enlightenment, and comprehended a Body Cultivator Dharma Method, hence the name Red Ape Sect. Among the Yannan Hundred Families, they have always been a proper Human Race Body Cultivator sect..."

At this point, the little girl sneered,

"But now it seems that there might be something more. The so-called dignified name of the Red Ape Sect perhaps serves to mislead, and outsiders seeing certain members with unusual forms resembling demon apes would merely assume it’s due to cultivation."

Who could have expected that within their sect, there truly hid demon apes or mixed-blooded members of the Demon Race.

Jin’er’s eyes slightly narrowed, as her Divine Sense extended along the roots of the Vine King, carefully sensing the violent aura in the center of the battlefield.
