Chu Yan raised his head, a rare solemn expression appearing between his brows.
Seeing him like this, Shangyue's expression couldn't help but become solemn.
Chu Yan said, "My senior brother was captured by a puppet and taken to Kunwu Peak. I followed him secretly. However, as soon as I approached Kunwu Peak, I was strangely teleported to this mysteriously disappeared Baihua City! Naturally, I lost track of my senior brother."
Chu Yan continued, "I have been in Baihua City for three months, and the disciples of the sects who were trapped in Baihua City like me have been strangled to death by puppets, their stomachs cut open and their hearts dug out, and their spiritual roots taken away."
Chu Yan couldn't help but think of those disciples who died tragically in Baihua City, and his expression was filled with grief.
He searched for his missing disciple in the fog for two hours, but suddenly he encountered an unusual breath in the fog.
There was anger in his eyes, and he thought he had found the culprit who had recently killed the sect's disciples, so he rushed forward with a sword.
Who knew that this person was actually Shangyue.
Chu Yan lowered his head, not daring to look directly into Shangyue's eyes. He stammered, "Fortunately, you are safe and sound, little junior sister. Otherwise, I would really..."
His speech broke off as he seemed to be searching for the right words to express his guilt and worry.
Shangyue caught the key point in Chu Yan's words. She frowned slightly and asked doubtfully:
"Brother Chu, have all the sect's disciples' spiritual roots been dug out?"
Chu Yan responded quickly: "Yes!"
Shangyue pondered for a moment and said, "It seems that someone has brought the sect disciples into Kunwu Mountain in order to take their spiritual roots. This is a conspiracy!"
However, who on earth has such great ability to move the entire Baihua City to Kunwu Mountain intact?
Even Gou Chen Fengyan, the only supreme being in Shangyuan Continent, would find it difficult to do so.
Kunwu Mountain, Baihua City, demon puppets and unknown bells appear one after another, and mysteries follow one after another!
Last month, I had a premonition that perhaps Baihua City would be the place where all the mysteries would be solved.
Shangyue asked solemnly, "Brother Chu, have you seen my master and...Gou Chen Shangqing?"
Before she finished speaking, she suddenly felt a cold air coming from behind her.
Shangyue subconsciously swung his sword backwards, and with a "swish" sound, he heard the tip of the sword piercing the flesh behind him.
She turned around and saw a huge monster covering the part of its body that was injured by the sword in pain.
The monster's eyes flashed green, revealing evil and cunning.
The monster let out a shrill scream and fled into the fog.
Shangyue clenched the Tianshu in her hand, a look of doubt in her eyes, but she chased after him a moment later.
"Junior Sister!" Chu Yan's anxious voice came from behind Shangyue.
"Brother Chu, be careful!"
Shangyue turned around and threw the iron-eating beast hanging on his body to Chu Yan, and his back disappeared from Chu Yan's sight in an instant.
The monster jumped up and down, shuttling through Baihua City at an extremely fast speed.
Its body was agile, and it kept jumping back and forth on the brick walls and rubble, raising a cloud of dust with every jump.
Shangyue followed closely behind, constantly gathering spiritual power, and condensed diamond-shaped ice pillars in his palms, with the ice tips aimed at the back of the monster.
The monsters fled in all directions at an extremely fast speed, but her training in the Xuzun realm last month had enabled her reaction speed and insight to reach an astonishing level.
Just as the monster was about to jump again, Shangyue took decisive action.
The icicle shot like an arrow, heading straight for the monster's vest.
"roar!"
The monster felt the threat from Shangyue and let out a deafening roar.
However, Shangyue had already anticipated this. The moment she attacked, she had already wrapped her spiritual power around her entire body, forming an indestructible shield.
The sonic attack hit Shangyue's spiritual shield, making a huge explosion, but did not cause any substantial damage to Shangyue.
At the same time, the icicle penetrated the monster's vest, pierced its shoulder blade, and oozed bright red blood.
The monster let out a shrill scream, and its entire body was filled with a terrifying aura.
His figure flashed and he fled towards a magnificent palace.
Seeing this, Shangyue immediately chased after him.
But out of the corner of his eye he saw Wulou with a cold look on his face.
In the fleeting encounter of glances, Shangyue caught a glimpse of the badly injured figure of Gou Chen Shangqing.
He was like a piece of roughly torn rag, held tightly in Wulou's hand, his face as pale as paper, and he fell into a deep sleep with a blurred consciousness.
The most terrifying thing was that his abdomen was hollow, with a hole the size of a fist, and glaring bright red blood was slowly flowing out from the edge of the hole.
Shangyue's heart sank and he turned around to chase after him.
But in an unintentional glance, his whole body froze.
Her eyes did not deceive her. At that moment, she did catch sight of Chihua's figure. In this desolate place, Chihua was like a breeze, fleeting.
"Master?" Shangyue's eyes widened, surprised and happy.
She turned around and chased in the direction of Chihua, but the moment she moved, she became entangled.
On one side is Gou Chen Shangqing, whose life or death is uncertain. If Shangyue doesn't save him, Gou Chen Shangqing will probably not escape the fate of having his spiritual roots dug out.
On the other side is Chihua Immortal Venerable, the most powerful among the Immortal Venerables. The probability that he may encounter life-threatening danger is no more than one percent.
In this situation, any normal person would know which side to choose!
Shangyue's tense brows slowly relaxed; she had found the answer in her heart.
Shangyue summoned Xiaolei and ran towards the place where Gou Chen Shangqing disappeared, and she moved her feet and rushed towards Chihua without hesitation.
