Although Liu Ruyan's Moon Concealment and Star Shift technique was fast, it consumed a great deal of energy, and coupled with her previous injuries, her speed gradually slowed down.
"puff--"
Another mouthful of blood spurted out, and Liu Ruyan's face was as pale as paper.
She looked back and Zhou Lao's figure was already clearly visible.
"Could it really be that today..."
A flicker of despair crossed Liu Ruyan's eyes, but it quickly hardened. "No! I, Liu Ruyan, would rather self-destruct my soul than allow myself to be humiliated!"
Just as she was preparing to fight to the death.
A white-clad figure suddenly appeared in her mind—it was her master, Gu Xuan!
"Master..."
Tears welled in Liu Ruyan's eyes as she took out a jade slip from her bosom and crushed it.
This was a life-saving item given to her by Gu Xuan; it could only be used in life-or-death situations.
........
The outskirts of the distant Taixu land.
Inside an inn in Black Stone City, on the border of the Yao Guang Dynasty.
Gu Xuan was preparing to ask Murong Qingxue and the others how they ascended to the Primordial Immortal Realm.
Before he could even speak...
A crystal-clear jade pendant that had always hung at his waist suddenly shattered!
Then came Liu Ruyan's weak voice: "Master...save...me..."
Fang Li, who was standing to the side, also heard the familiar voice, and his expression changed drastically!
That's my third junior sister's voice!
And why is he so weak? Could it be...?
At that moment, Gu Xuan received Liu Ruyan's plea for help, and his brows furrowed suddenly.
Then, he sighed helplessly, "This girl, she only asked me for help when she was this badly injured, she's really stubborn!"
Before he could finish speaking...
Gu Xuan raised his hand and ripped the space in front of him apart like a piece of cloth.
He stepped in and disappeared from the spot.
At the same time, Liu Ruyan had already been caught up by Elder Zhou and was slammed to the ground with a palm strike, creating a huge crater.
"Run! Why did you stop running?"
Old Zhou sneered condescendingly, "A mere Immortal Emperor, managing to escape from my grasp for so long, you should be proud of yourself."
Liu Ruyan struggled to sit up, wiping the blood from the corner of her mouth: "Old bastard... is the Dark Abyss Immortal Sect... only capable of bullying the weak?"
Old Zhou didn't take it seriously and sneered, "The law of the jungle is the ironclad rule of the cultivation world."
"If you have someone to blame, blame yourself for being born with such a captivating appearance, and for not knowing how to restrain yourself."
He reached out and grabbed.
A powerful spiritual force was about to capture Liu Ruyan...
Just at this critical moment, a soft sigh suddenly echoed through the heavens and earth: "Alas, you're right, having a disciple who's too beautiful is indeed a problem."
The sound wasn't loud, but it seemed to ring in everyone's ears!
Old Zhou's expression changed drastically, and he abruptly looked up—
The space beside Liu Ruyan silently cracked open, and a figure in white slowly stepped out...
The newcomer wore a plain white robe, had cascading black hair, and possessed a handsome face like that of an immortal, yet gave off an unfathomable aura.
He stood there, seemingly one with heaven and earth.
Although no pressure was released, Zhou Lao felt a suffocating pressure.
