Chu Hongluan gazed at the nine-headed bird in the sky and sighed again.
What was bound to happen has finally happened.
In the story, the jade pendant became ineffective because the Nine-Headed Bird broke through to the Nascent Soul stage and activated its domain power, which naturally blocked the teleportation channel.
But whether it was Liu Youcai or Mo Yu, they only picked the budding Lieyang Flower, because once the flower bloomed, the giant snake would swallow it whole, leaving them no chance to make a move.
Therefore, if you want to pick flowers, you can only do so before they bloom.
For this reason, the Blazing Sun Flower did not bloom in the original story, so the Nine-Headed Bird did not appear.
It was only when the nine major sects gathered a group of Nascent Soul level experts and personally entered the secret realm that they discovered the Nine-Headed Bird had opened its domain. They then joined forces to kill it and rescued all the disciples except Liu Youcai.
But this time, everything is different.
The appearance of the nine-headed bird will kill many people.
"Wow! Senior! That bird in the sky has nine heads!"
"...If you say another word, I'll throw you down."
"profound."
Chu Hongluan moved with the speed of the wind, as swift as lightning.
Faster.
The plot changed because of her interference; if someone had actually died, she would have been deeply sinful.
At the same time, Liu Jinghong looked at the nine-headed bird in the sky, his jaw clenched tightly, his eyes dark and unfathomable, only revealing a hint of sharpness.
The nine-headed bird came for the blazing sunflower.
Damn it, I fought that giant snake for ages, risking my life! Why should I give it to you just because you show up?!
Liu Jinghong reached up to her waist and stroked the puppet talisman inside the brocade pouch through the thin fabric.
How about we take a gamble?
"Get out of my way, human. Before I start my killing spree."
The nine-headed bird spoke in human language, each word carrying immense pressure.
Liu Jinghong suddenly smiled. Get out of here? Impossible.
A teleportation talisman was ignited at her fingertips. Liu Jinghong mobilized all her spiritual power and shot off like an arrow. In a flash, the Blazing Sun Flower was left with only a bare stem.
Where are the flowers?
In Liu Jinghong's mouth.
"You're courting death!" the nine-headed bird roared, and with a single, terrifying bolt of lightning pierced the sky from its massive beak!
It aimed straight at Liu Jinghong's back!
Zheng—
It's the sound of a knife!
Liu Jinghong suddenly turned around!
"Junior sister..."
With her red robes fluttering, she swept her long sword across the sky and completely blocked the rolling thunder!
Lightning flashed across the blade, instantly charring the white cloth wrapping it black, which vanished without a trace with a gust of wind.
"Young Master, I really don't want to see the same scene every time I appear..."
When they first met, Chu Hongluan did just that, severing a deadly hidden weapon with a single strike.
Three months later, she once again descended to earth like a goddess, severing a deadly thunderbolt with a single stroke.
Why do they always arrive so timely?
It's so hard for me to control my heart...
Liu Jinghong thought to herself.
"Hahahaha, big bird, take this!"
A rough, thunderous shout rang out. The giant bird's attention was entirely focused on Chu Hongluan, and before it could react, a knife slashed its neck! Blood gushed forth!
A mournful bird cry rang out, deafeningly loud.
Kotinghe gripped the large knife, hanging it around the bird's neck, and wouldn't let go no matter how hard the bird shook its head!
"What are you all standing there for! The jade token has expired! If you don't want to die, get out of the war zone!"
The crowd finally came to their senses and couldn't help but feel a lingering fear. Feng Sili led the Penglai disciples in a hasty bow to Chu Hongluan to express their gratitude, and then quickly left.
Mo Yu's face was extremely grim. He didn't know the jade token had malfunctioned; he only wanted to eliminate Liu Jinghong, not kill him! But what had he just done? He had almost killed everyone here.
The next second, a heavy punch landed squarely on his face!
"You did it on purpose!"
It is Song Nanhe.
"You didn't use your full strength when you stabbed the giant snake in its vital spot! Otherwise, how could your protective shield have withstood the giant snake's attack? You deliberately tried to break the balance of the battle! You wanted Liu Jinghong to die!"
"This is murder!"
Song Nanhe rarely lost his temper like this; his eyes were bloodshot, and his gaze was unusually fierce!
He almost... he almost witnessed Junior Sister Gu die at the hands of the giant snake...
Mo Yu's eyes darted around, his mouth opened and closed repeatedly, unable to find a reason to defend himself. He simply scoffed and left with the words, "Incomprehensible."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Song Nanhe tried to stop her, but Gu Chunxiao grabbed his sleeve.
"for you."
"What's this?"
"poison."
"profound."
Song Nanhe drank the so-called poison in one gulp.
Gu Chunxiao looked at him, hesitant to speak.
Song Nanhe felt the pain in his chest from the backlash gradually subside, and his spiritual energy gradually replenished. He smiled at her: "I know Junior Sister wouldn't harm me."
Chu Hongluan watched the interaction between the two with amusement, but when she caught a glimpse of Mo Yu's back out of the corner of her eye, her expression turned completely cold.
She didn't say anything, but instead grabbed Liu Jinghong's arm and slipped something into his hand.
"I was wrong before, this is my apology."
Having said that, he drew his sword and rose into the air.
Liu Jinghong knew she was referring to the fact that she had caught him changing clothes, and he felt embarrassed. He bit his lip before he came to his senses. When he looked up, he found that what was lying in his palm was a... Blood Spirit Mushroom.
Blood Ganoderma!
Liu Jinghong suddenly looked up!
In the sky, Chu Hongluan's sword energy crisscrossed, cleaving through the heavens, and in the blink of an eye, she had already exchanged several blows with the nine-headed bird!
Fearing that innocent people might be harmed, Chu Hongluan shouted:
"Köttinghe! Get down!"
"No! I've finally encountered a Nascent Soul stage demon beast! Just let me swipe a couple of times!"
