Chapter 460 Rescue (2)
Tao Zi vaguely realized his thoughts, but was a little surprised. She called out, "Mr. Xu?"
Old Xu looked at her, his tone extremely calm: "My cultivation in this life has come to an end. How about I repay you for saving my life with my own life?"
As soon as she finished speaking, the chains on her body disappeared instantly and appeared on Old Xu.
"Let's go. There are people waiting for you outside. I look forward to the day when you return to the Minglan Sect and restore order."
Tao Zi knew that time was urgent, so she simply bowed and rushed outside.
Xing Wen was pacing outside, surrounded by several fallen monks. He looked particularly anxious. When he saw her come out, he placed a talisman on her and said, "Big Sister, there's no time to explain. Come with me."
When they arrived at the bottom of Xingfeng Peak, a patrol team happened to pass by, led by three Jindan.
Tao Zi quickly restrained her breath and hid behind a tree, her heart sinking. This guy was so afraid of her that he even sent out Jindan to patrol.
The Jindan cultivator saw Xing Wen and asked in surprise, "Junior Brother Xing, what are you doing here in the middle of the night?"
Xing Wen laughed and said, "It's not the end of my shift. I wanted to go down the mountain for a while. It's really suffocating up there."
The Golden Core smiled and nodded, saying, "I didn't expect that you physical cultivators also don't like the environment of Xingfeng."
Xing Wen made a few self-deprecating remarks and successfully got away with it.
As soon as Jin Dan left, he immediately led Tao Zi eastward. They were probably out of Xingfeng. He then spoke again, "This talisman can suppress Senior Sister's aura. Ordinary Yuanying can't sense it. So, when Senior Sister sees people, she only needs to hide and don't have to worry about her aura leaking out. But it's best not to use her spiritual sense, as it can easily be detected by the Yuanying."
Tao Zi responded softly, her expression still alert: "How long can we keep this secret from Mr. Xu?"
"uncertain."
Another patrol.
Tao Zi hid again.
After walking intermittently for about a quarter of an hour, we saw a huge fire and a lot of noise on Xingfeng Peak.
Xing Wen's face changed, and he said, "Old Xu has been discovered. Senior Sister, just run in this direction, it must be this direction! I'll go back and disrupt the view."
Tao Zi quickened her pace and headed in the direction he said.
She didn't know why it had to be this direction, but she believed in Wu Yue's eye for selecting people.
Not long after, an explosion was heard behind him.
She paused, a Nascent Soul cultivator had self-destructed...
Tao Zi couldn't think any more and continued to run forward.
As the explosions sounded, more and more monks began to move.
When she was about to leave Minglan Sect, she was stopped by someone.
Lan Yongji stood opposite her, one eye empty and the other full of hatred, which was particularly terrifying.
Standing beside him were three Nascent Souls and several Golden Cores.
Tao Zi stood there, looking slightly gloomy.
The leader clearly didn't take Lan Yongji seriously. He stepped forward, blocking half of Lan Yongji, and said, "Yue Qiran, if you surrender now, you can be given a lighter sentence."
She sneered, "A lighter sentence? Do you mean to say that instead of ten thousand arrows piercing the heart, you should say a thousand arrows piercing the heart?"
The Yuanying's face darkened and he said, "Since you don't know what's good for you, don't blame us for being rude."
At this time, the little ghost no longer hid himself and appeared with the ghost army.
Looking at the miniature version of "Lian Qingzhou", everyone was stunned for a moment.
The little ghost took advantage of this opportunity to lead his ghost subordinates to rush over.
Tao Zi endured the pain from before and mobilized the power of his spiritual consciousness to try his best to restrain the three Nascent Souls.
But this is the territory of Minglan Sect after all, and in just a few moments, it was surrounded by cultivators.
Tao Zi had no help from her seniors, and the three Nascent Soul cultivators were not the kind of casual cultivators with shallow foundations. In addition, other cultivators interfered with her, so she only lasted less than half a minute before she fell to the ground seriously injured.
But in the eyes of others, this was already extremely impressive. One of the Nascent Soul cultivators said, "You have incredible talent to have been able to hold on until now with the strength of a Flesh Refining Stage cultivator. It's a pity you've gone astray."
The little ghost stood in front of her and sneered, "Who knows who the monk who has gone astray is!"
The Yuanying looked at her appearance and did not respond.
Lan Yongji reacted quickly, mockingly saying, "You tricked me into saying such nonsense, and you even tried to use a demon you found from who knows where to deal with Lian Qingzhou?"
As soon as these words were spoken, all the monks suddenly understood.
Tao Zi sneered, "Hey, with your brain, you can actually find this out?"
His expression changed, his anger rising wildly. He stepped forward and cursed, "It's already this late, and you're still being stubborn! Hurry up and tell me how you plotted against me."
She blinked her eyes and suddenly realized that she had been deceived by Lan Yongji. This man just wanted to put the blame on her at first, but he accidentally got it right.
Tao Zi sighed, got up from the ground, glanced around, straightened her sleeves, and asked, "Where's Qinglan? He won't come for such a big thing?"
The expressions of those Nascent Souls changed, and they did not respond to this sentence.
She suddenly realized that Qinglan was not there tonight and could not even spare a clone. It was a pity that even with such a good opportunity in front of her, she could not escape.
Lan Yongji said sinisterly, "What are you waiting for? Hurry up and take her back!"
Some of the disciples stopped where they were and did not move, while others silently stepped forward with swords in hand.
"Wait a minute!"
A sharp voice rang out.
Everyone looked over and saw that it was an elder in the out-of-body stage.
Her expression froze for a moment. This person was none other than Thirteen's master.
The elder looked at her intently and asked, "Yue Qiran, outside Xuanling Valley, were you the one who killed Thirteen?"
Tao Zi smiled faintly and remained calm.
The elder sighed softly and said, "I have only had this one disciple in my life, and he is such a fool."
Lan Yongji said anxiously, "Elder, why bother talking to her about this nonsense? Just arrest her and torture her. The longer the night, the more trouble there is. We should act quickly and not hesitate any longer."
The little ghost led the severely damaged ghost army to guard Tao Zi, knowing that this was a battle that could not be won.
The elder sighed again and waved his hand, and the disciples behind him all moved forward.
Tao Zi frantically mobilized his almost exhausted spiritual consciousness, preparing for a final desperate struggle.
Looking at this scene, a look of joy appeared on Lan Yongji's face, and the next moment, his expression froze.
No one expected that the disciple behind the elder would point his sword at them.
The elder's expression remained calm as he said, "But even at this point, I'm still not so confused as to distinguish right from wrong. As for Thirteen, he was confused, and his death is understandable. Junior-Martial Nephew Yue, find a chance to escape later. I hope our peak didn't help the wrong person today."
No one could have imagined that the elder would bet the entire peak on her slim chance of survival.
Tao Zi's eyes felt a little sore, and she said, "Thank you, Elder."
Yuanying suddenly sneered and said, "The elders of my peak who are in the Out-of-Body Stage are coming too. You can't escape. You will all die."
