Chapter 721: Chapter 631: Direct Capture Amid Peril (Merged Chapter)
The gaunt elder with a headscarf frowned, “Colluding with the Demon Clan, do you have any evidence?”
“We naturally have evidence, so he must come with us for questioning.” Another seductive woman wearing a green gauze long skirt also shot out a sharp cold light from her eyes,
“If he truly is innocent, he will surely be released back then.”
Listening to this, the gaunt elder just shook his head, “I’m not a three-year-old child, if you take me back, is there still a way to live?
Moreover, Daoist Bi left already and is not here with me.”
“What?” Upon hearing this, the other cultivators present were all furious.
’Bang!’
At this moment, a violent explosion sounded from the cave behind the elder.
“How dare you secretly send people to infiltrate our cave dwelling!” The elder with the headscarf exclaimed angrily, “This is against the rules, I will report this to Lord Trench Patrol Guest!”
“Trench Patrol Guest was invited two days ago and has left this Su District, didn’t you know?” The scar-faced cultivator laughed loudly.
He and several other cultivators blocked the elder with the headscarf, preventing him from returning to the cave dwelling.
At this time, two male cultivators had already broken into the cave dwelling, their aura domineering and flamboyant.
They disregarded everything, barging into one stone chamber after another, frantically searching for something inside.
One looked about twenty years old, handsome, stepping on a white jade pillow, wearing a bright white Daoist Robe, his whole body spotless.
The other looked about thirty years old, wearing a black Daoist Robe, his face cold and devoid of flesh.
A black Flying Sword constantly circled around him, slicing anything suspicious to pieces at a glance.
“Strange, that Corpse-Driving Sect member seems truly not to be here?” The white-robed cultivator wondered aloud, “Obviously someone has been watching all along, how could they have let him escape?”
“Humph, who knows if those watching were being lazy or sneaky!” The black-robed cultivator sneered,
“However, this guy’s escape is somewhat troublesome.
The leader originally wanted to capture him and send him to Taiyi Sect’s genius Daoist to make connections.”
“Capture that old man outside, surely we can interrogate him about the whereabouts of that little fish from Corpse-Driving Sect,” the white-robed cultivator calmly suggested.
Seeing that the cave dwelling did not have the person they were searching for, the two no longer wasted time and flew out.
“The member from Corpse-Driving Sect has escaped!”
“What? Kang Xiao, how dare you harbor and connive with Demon Clan collaborators!”
“You scoundrels! Utter nonsense!
I, Kang, have spent more than a hundred years in the Abyss, with the number of top Demon Generals I’ve killed too many to be counted on two hands, how dare you slander me?”
“Don’t waste words with him, seize him and let me perform the Soul Search technique!” Another female voice filled with murderous intent sounded.
“Capture him, don’t let him escape!”
The scene instantly erupted into intense fighting, quickly moving away from the cave’s location.
They didn’t know, in the underground space of the outermost stone chamber of the cave.
A burly middle-aged man in a red robe, with prominent eyebrow bones and thick eyebrows, was looking worriedly at the ceiling.
In his hand, he tightly clenched a yellowish fishtail-shaped Jade Pendant.
The Jade Pendant emitted a faint white halo, wrapping tightly around the person, with not a hint of aura leaking out.
“Daoist Kang…”
Suddenly, he heard the previous conversation between the elder with the headscarf and him.
“Daoist Kang, I must leave here, I cannot drag you down!”
“No, there are many people watching outside. Once you leave, it’s death.
This is my family’s heirloom ancient jade, it has the function of isolating aura.
Stay underground, no one will find you. I will go and draw them away…”
“No, you gave it to me, what about yourself?
Besides, so many people outside, it’s too dangerous!”
“Don’t worry, I, Kang, have spent more than a hundred years in the Abyss, what grand scene haven’t I experienced?
The petty people of Two Forms Sect want to curry favor with Taiyi Sect’s Daoist by persecuting my comrades who share life and death with me, how could I let them succeed!
Just wait here for me, I will be back soon!”
The middle-aged male cultivator in the red robe stayed in the underground space, tightly clutching the fishtail Jade Pendant.
Even after several groups came for searches later, they couldn’t find any trace of him.
One day, two days, three days…
The gaunt elder wearing the black headscarf never managed to return.
“Daoist Kang…”
Two streams of tears slid from the middle-aged male cultivator’s eyes.
“Two Forms Sect, Taiyi Sect…” Cold light shot from his eyes, “As long as I, Bi Lingyuan, am alive for one day, we are locked in an unending battle to the death!”
