The wife of the Valley Master of Red Flower Valley, the beautiful young woman Man Yutao, is currently fleeing desperately, even burning her essence and five elements energy, just to escape with her life.
Man Yutao didn't want to die, especially since she had just broken through to the Innate Realm and her lifespan had doubled. She would be too unwilling to be killed at this time.
As for the evil she had done in the past, she had no regrets whatsoever.
Without absorbing the essence and vital energy of so many men, she would never have been able to cultivate to the Innate Realm.
At this moment, Man Yutao felt nothing but endless resentment. She had only killed some low-level cultivators at the Blood Refining and Organ Refining stages, yet the newcomer had mercilessly killed her husband, who was at the Innate stage.
They deserve to be torn to pieces.
If Lu Tao knew what this woman was thinking, he would definitely be speechless. However, not only did Man Yutao think this way, but most of the disciples in the entire Red Flower Valley thought the same way.
They only care about their own interests and ideas, regardless of the lives of others.
Man Yutao glanced back at the direction of Red Flower Valley and breathed a sigh of relief when she found that no one was chasing her. However, she did not dare to be careless and continued to burn her essence blood to escape.
"You bastard, I'll remember you. One day, I'll skin you alive and tear you apart."
Man Yutao hardened her heart, remembering the hatred of the destruction of the valley. She believed that with her beauty and ability, she would one day be able to advance to the Grandmaster and Divine Platform, and then return to take revenge.
Even though she doesn't even know who her enemy is.
Every time she ran a certain distance, Man Yutao would turn her head to look back. After dozens of times, she still hadn't seen anyone. She felt much more at ease. Just when she thought that the person wouldn't chase after her and that she had escaped, Man Yutao habitually glanced behind her.
That one glance—
This terrified Man Yutao so much that she almost lost her soul and nearly fell headfirst into the air.
In the distance, a humanoid monster with a pair of fiery red wings on its back was chasing after her at lightning speed, faster than she could burn her Five Elements Qi.
"How is that possible? How could he catch up? I changed direction halfway through."
Man Yutao was horrified and filled with confusion. Fearing that Lu Tao would catch up, she erased her presence midway and changed direction.
She didn't expect that Lu Tao would still catch up with her.
How did he do that?
Without time to think, at this moment, all of Man Yutao's essence, bone strength, five elements, and even internal energy ignited, instantly doubling her speed.
But to her despair, even so, the distance between her and Lu Tao continued to shrink.
"No, if this continues, I won't be able to escape at all."
Man Yutao forced herself to calm down. She knew that if she continued to run, Lu Tao would catch up with her soon. It was better to stop now and try to survive.
Moreover, it can retain essence, blood, the five elements, and vital energy, allowing one to risk their life. Once these are exhausted and the enemy catches up, they are no different from lambs to the slaughter.
"So young?"
When Lu Tao caught up, Man Yutao realized that the powerful figure who had attacked her Red Flower Valley was actually a young man, and his cultivation level did not seem to be at the Innate Realm.
She did not sense any innate energy from Lu Tao.
Man Yutao's mind raced. Suddenly, she suppressed her hatred and looked at Lu Tao with a foxy smile. "Young hero, you're pursuing me so relentlessly. Could it be that you've taken a fancy to me?"
As she spoke, her slender fingers traced across her red lips, and her left hand gently lifted a section of her long skirt, revealing her fair and delicate legs. A hint of shyness then appeared on her face.
Both her expression and her movements were incredibly alluring and captivating.
She had used this trick countless times, seducing countless innocent young men and infatuated strong men. The result was self-evident: they all became the victims of her charms.
Unfortunately, this time, she miscalculated.
Lu Tao ignored all of this, and with a blank expression, he stretched out his right hand, and a small knife appeared in his hand, which was more than three feet long in the blink of an eye.
Upon seeing this, Man Yutao's pupils contracted, and then she was secretly delighted.
She hadn't expected that Lu Tao, though not at the Innate Realm, would possess a spiritual artifact.
"Did he strike it rich? Otherwise, how could he possess a spiritual artifact before even reaching the Innate Realm?"
Man Yutao suddenly had an idea: she wanted to devour Lu Tao and take everything from him for herself.
He's just a kid, maybe even a novice, how much experience could he possibly have?
Since the temptation failed, why not be bolder?
Man Yutao's innate energy spun slightly, and in an instant, her clothes exploded, revealing her tall and exquisite figure to Lu Tao. Man Yutao looked at Lu Tao, who was about to attack, with tears welling up in her eyes. "Young master, can you really bear to lay a hand on Yutao? If you are willing, Yutao is willing to follow you, to be your servant, and to be at your beck and call."
When she spoke of driving him, her gaze towards Lu Tao became even more seductive.
"..."
Lu Tao was speechless. He was only a second late, and this person actually wanted him to be at odds with the River Crab Emperor. Wasn't this a death wish?
His intentions deserve to be punished.
You deserve to die!
In order to win back the friendship of the River Crab Emperor, Lu Tao took decisive action. To avoid suspicion, Lu Tao even abandoned close-range sword fighting and chose to kill him with a bow and arrow.
Man Yutao was shocked.
She never expected that even after going to such lengths, Lu Tao would not only not be tempted, but would instead be aroused to have an even stronger killing intent.
why is that?
Man Yutao couldn't understand it, but she knew now was not the time to think deeply. She rushed towards Lu Tao, wanting to take advantage of the moment when Lu Tao drew his bow to fight him at close range.
There's no way to escape; we can only fight for our lives.
Unfortunately, the idea was nice, but reality was cruel.
puff--
The arrow was too close and too fast for her to dodge, and it pierced her abdomen.
Before she could react, Lu Tao slashed down with his knife again.
A blade of light, ten feet long, flashed across her body in an instant, killing her instantly.
"That damned little thing, he has no mercy for women at all. He saw my body naked and then did such a cruel thing. He is really despicable."
Man Yutao's two bodies fell into the forest, and a weak spiritual consciousness left her head and silently disappeared into the ground, trying to escape with her life.
However, at this very moment—
Buzz!
A gaze shot down from mid-air, accurately targeting her consciousness. The gaze merely brushed against her, and she was horrified to discover that her consciousness instantly dissolved within its light.
"I see."
At this moment, Man Yutao finally understood why Lu Tao could find the direction she had escaped in—it was because of his pupil technique.
He could even see her hiding underground with her very weak spiritual sense, and could even kill her directly. It seems that Lu Tao's pupil technique is extremely powerful, and he probably saw her escape route long ago.
Is this karma?
On her deathbed, Man Yutao remembered the curses that those who had died at the hands of her and her husband had hurled at them, cursing them to suffer a terrible death and be punished.
They never took it to heart.
As a result, today, she and her husband both died at Lu Tao's hands, their bodies and souls were destroyed, their consciousness was annihilated, and they didn't even have the chance to be reincarnated.
"Perhaps there really is some kind of karma."
Man Yutao thought to herself, and then her consciousness was swallowed by darkness.
——
After killing Man Yutao, Lu Tao finally relaxed. He put away the corpse and storage bag, retrieved the spirit arrow, and flew back to Red Flower Valley.
When Lu Tao returned to Red Flower Valley, all the disciples of Red Flower Valley had been killed by Luo Xiaojun and his men; not a single one had escaped.
The entire Red Flower Valley was filled with curses, cries, and even maniacal laughter.
They were all captured by Red Flower Valley, and at this moment they were venting their anger and resentment to the fullest.
Many people were even punching, kicking, hacking, and chopping at the dead Red Flower Valley disciples.
Lu Tao watched this scene and sighed silently.
"Young hero, these are the storage bags for all the disciples of Red Flower Valley."
Luo Xiaojun and the others respectfully handed over hundreds of storage bags to Lu Tao.
Lu Tao nodded, swept his divine sense across the storage bags of the Bone Forging and Organ Refining realm cultivators he had killed, and said, "You killed them, so the spoils belong to you. However, I need all the cultivation techniques in their storage bags. I can exchange them for Xuan-rank cultivation techniques."
Luo Xiaojun and the others naturally had no objections.
Lu Tao was generous and gave away several high-grade Xuan-level cultivation techniques to everyone.
When exchanging cultivation techniques, Lu Tao also took out a lot of pills and gave them to the group, and asked them to feed some of the pills to those whose essence and five elements had been drained to restore their qi and blood.
"You should all leave Red Flower Valley first; I'm going to burn it down."
Hearing Lu Tao's words, Luo Xiaojun and his group, along with a group of people who looked numb, retreated.
But a few people didn't leave. At this moment, a glimmer of life returned to their eyes. They glanced gratefully at Lu Tao and then calmly chose to extricate themselves.
They were all young, around twenty or thirty years old. They were women whose essence and blood had been drained by the male cultivators of Red Flower Valley. Their foundations had been destroyed, and they had been tortured many times. They had no hope of living and had long since given up on life.
"well."
Seeing this scene, Lu Tao, Luo Xiaojun and others, as well as those who had not yet had their essence extracted, all felt a pang of pity and a sense of unease.
Those who originally had no intention of committing suicide seemed to be tempted to do so upon seeing this scene, but fortunately they were stopped by others.
call--
Lu Tao circulated the fire power within his body, igniting one building after another in Red Flower Valley. He also poured out a lot of wine from his storage bag to fuel the fire, causing the entire Red Flower Valley to burst into flames.
During this time, Lu Tao also threw the other corpses in the system space into the valley and cremated them together.
The fire burned for several hours.
Only when everything in the entire Red Flower Valley was burned down under the watchful eye of the heavens, even the white bones buried underground were burned to ashes, did Lu Tao extinguish the fire with the power of water within his body.
From then on, Red Flower Valley ceased to exist in the world.
"Thank you for saving me, young hero. May I ask your name? I will definitely set up a memorial tablet for you when I get home."
