Chapter 44: Sharp tongue but soft heart
Gu Zhifei imagined that Luochang would be a place with rivers of blood and corpses everywhere.
But in reality, there was nothing except empty streets and a faint smell of blood in the air.
Ren Huanzhen glanced at the three of them and snorted coldly, "Since you are in a hurry to come here, don't hold me back. I can't save any of you."
She had a deep prejudice against Gu Zhifei and the other two. In the world of immortal cultivation where strength is the most important thing, being weak is a sin.
"Don't worry, take care of yourself." Hua Xixia couldn't help but retorted.
Ren Huanzhen glared at her, snorted again, and walked towards the barrier with sword in hand.
In order to prevent the evil cultivator from escaping, Ren Huanzhen gave up one of her own Xuan-level magic weapons and sealed off the entire Luchang County, not allowing any living creature to enter or leave.
She stood at the edge of the barrier, raised her hand and drew a rune, which was printed on the barrier. The barrier quickly melted, and a small white jade pendant fell into her hand.
As soon as she grabbed it, the jade pendant broke into two pieces.
The time in the jade pendant's space is stagnant. If it is used in a small area, it can be used several times. But if someone uses it to cover an entire county like Ren Huanzhen did, this jade pendant becomes a disposable consumable.
Ren Huanzhen put the broken jade into the storage bag with some heartache, held the sword in his right hand, and walked in front:
"Junior Brother Wu, keep an eye on these troublemakers you brought with you!"
Wu Zhijun explained in a low voice: "Actually, Senior Sister is worried that something might happen to you. She just sent me a message, telling you not to fall behind."
Being weak and falling behind would probably be fatal here.
Gu Zhifei understood and turned to look at Hua Xixia: "Are all of you sword cultivators so sharp-tongued but kind-hearted?"
The two glanced at her fiercely, then snorted at each other and turned away, ignoring each other.
In addition to Ren Huanzhen, Gu Zhifei and the other three, there was also a Jindan disciple and three late foundation-building cultivators in their group.
The traveling lineup of two Jindan and four foundation-building masters is considered quite good in the mortal world.
But no one dared to let down their guard, because there were three powerful Demon Pill masters on the opposite side.
Ren Huanzhen took out a crystal ball and poured spiritual energy into it. The crystal ball immediately shone brightly, with a white light band pointing forward.
This crystal ball is called the Demon Seeking Bead. It can accurately point out anything that has anything to do with demonic energy. This is one of the most important means for cultivators to find demons.
Several people gathered in a group and slowly moved towards the direction indicated by the light band.
Gu Zhifei just felt that things were not that simple.
The demon cultivators here are similar to the ones they met last time. They all work in gangs and have means of anti-detection. There is no chance that they will just wait there for them.
Thinking of this, Gu Zhifei said to Guang Shubai: "Brother, can you use your spirit beast?"
Guang Shubai knew what she meant as soon as he heard it, and lowered his voice:
"It consumes a lot of spiritual energy, so I'll use it at the critical moment."
With his words, Gu Zhifei felt relieved. Being able to hide for a few breaths could determine the outcome of the battle.
At the same time, she held the talisman tightly, not daring to relax at all.

Wu Zhijun, seeing how nervous she was, could not help but comfort her:
"Don't worry, even though there are three magic pills on the opposite side, our sister can beat three by herself."
Ren Huanzhen was originally a sword cultivator, and his destructive power was simply terrifying among people of the same level. Wu Zhijun felt that Gu Zhifei's worries were unfounded.
At this time, the Demon-Seeking Pearl also turned red.
This means that they are now only three meters away from the monster.
