Chen Tianhua felt a chill run down his spine; Lin Youyou's strength had completely exceeded his expectations.
A dark purple light suddenly enveloped Chen Tianhua's entire body, and in the next moment it would completely bind him.
In that instant, Chen Tianhua took out a spirit talisman inscribed with complex runes without hesitation.
"A talisman!"
Lin Youyou was startled, and the binding force suddenly increased, attempting to prevent him from activating the talisman.
"Don't try to stop me!"
Chen Tianhua roared and bit his tongue, burning the essence and blood within his body.
His essence and blood ignited instantly, and Chen Tianhua's aura suddenly surged, breaking through Lin Youyou's restraints in an instant.
"broken."
Lin Youyou had a bad feeling, and at that moment the talisman started to burn in the wind.
The next moment, the talisman shone brightly.
The gold, silver, and red lights intertwined and shimmered, like stars suddenly bursting forth.
As the runes shone at their fullest, a heart-pounding wave filled the air.
"Get out of the way!"
Lin Youyou was shocked to find that Chen Tianhua held a Saint-level talisman.
"Young Master, be careful!"
Facing the impending eruption of the spirit talisman, Leng Chan showed no fear, stepped forward, and spread her arms to block Qing Yu and Yun Si Ning.
Immediately afterwards, a deafening roar resounded through the sky.
The sound was like thousands of thunderbolts exploding at once, and light and energy suddenly burst forth, forming an extremely dazzling sphere of light that swallowed everything around it.
The wind howled, dust flew everywhere, and even the distant mountains trembled.
"Ning'er, be careful!"
"Be careful, Senior Sister!"
Qingyu and Yun Sining's voices rang out almost at the same time.
The aftershocks of the explosion spread rapidly like ripples, destroying vegetation, cracking rocks, and leaving a scene of utter devastation.
Lin Youyou's expression changed drastically. Disregarding her own safety, she charged head-on towards Qingyu and the others, braving the raging spiritual energy.
Taking this opportunity, Chen Tianhua successfully broke through the blockade of the surrounding space and flew rapidly towards Fenglin City.
How are you all?
Before Chen Tianhua could escape, Lin Youyou arrived at the spot where the group had been standing, even before the dust had settled.
"No...it's nothing."
"Don't let him get away!"
Yun Si Ning's voice came through.
Lin Youyou looked closely and realized that a layer of illusory protective shield had appeared around Yun Sining, Qingyu, and Lengchan.
"What's this?"
She asked in surprise.
"Hehe, I also have a talisman."
Yun Si Ning smiled and waved the few talismans in her hand.
Just as she realized that the opponent's Saint-level spirit talisman was about to detonate, Yun Sining did not hesitate to take out several Saint-level protective talismans from her storage ring.
In a battle between Saint-level beings, with the numerical advantage, Yun Si Ning and her companions emerged unscathed.
However, it was tough on Xu Lan, who was lying on the ground, because Yun Si Ning didn't have any extra talismans for him to use.
At this moment, Xu Lan, who had regained consciousness, fell into a coma again.
Under the impact of the chaotic spiritual energy, his body was covered in numerous wounds, bloody and somewhat terrifying.
However, Xu Lan was still at the Dragon Marrow Realm, and this place was not at the center of the spiritual talisman's explosion, so he was only unconscious and not in mortal danger.
"It's alright, it's alright."
Lin Youyou had not expected that the other party would burn his own essence blood without hesitation.
"Did that guy escape?"
Qingyu asked.
Lin Youyou nodded and said to the others.
"We need to leave the Southern Flame Realm as soon as possible. If nothing unexpected happens, he will inform the Black Moon Sect about what happened here."
"The other party is a first-class sect in the Southern Flame Realm. With our current manpower, it will be quite difficult to deal with them."
Qingyu agreed.
“I agree. We need to return to the Central Abyss Realm as soon as possible; we can’t delay any longer.”
Besides Lin Youyou, the Prisoner Wind Hall also brought three Dragon Marrow Realm warriors to the Southern Flame Realm this time.
However, when facing a sect, these forces still seem somewhat inadequate.
"Master, what should we do with him? Kill him?"
Just as the group was about to leave, Leng Chan pointed at Xu Lan on the ground.
"Let's take him with us; he might come in handy."
"Understood."
Leng Chan stepped forward, grabbed Xu Lan's arm, and dragged him into the air.
Forehead……
Watching Xu Lan twitch in the air like a tattered plastic bag, Yun Si Ning felt a moment of pity for him.
Afterwards, the group returned to the airship.
"Set off immediately and return to the Central Abyss Realm at full speed."
Lin Youyou said to Liu Shengyun.
Before long, the airship soared into the sky with a series of buzzing sounds.
The group carried the unconscious Xu Lan back to the main cabin, and Lin Youyou said with a smile.
"At the speed of this airship, even if they set off now, there is absolutely no way they can stop us."
Yun Si Ning nodded and took out a map from her storage ring.
"This is a map of the Southern Flame Realm. The Black Moon Sect is in the opposite direction from us, and it's quite a distance away."
"That's right."
Lin Youyou sat down and said teasingly.
"Even if they catch up, it doesn't matter. We can just take Xu Lan hostage."
hostage?
Yun Si Ning was taken aback.
"That's a really good idea."
But as she was thinking, her face suddenly turned pale.
Qingyu, standing close to her, keenly noticed the subtle changes in Yun Sining.
"What's wrong, Ning'er? What's on your mind?"
"Senior sister..."
Yun Si Ning's eyes flickered, and her unease grew stronger.
"Um?"
Lin Youyou and the others also looked over.
"The mysterious person behind Chai Yanchen, her true form must be in the Zhongyuan Realm."
Qingyu nodded and said.
"That's how it should be, what's wrong?"
"Speaking of hostages, something suddenly came to mind."
“That mysterious person knows your background, Senior Sister, and knows that you come from Jianping Mountain.”
"What if she launches a surprise attack on Greenwood Peak, threatening the lives of her many senior brothers and sisters, or even her master!"
Upon hearing this, Qingyu's expression also turned ugly.
She looked at Lin Youyou for help.
"You don't need to worry so much. I have already taken precautions and arranged for two experts at the Dragon Marrow Realm to guard Greenwood Peak."
Even though Lin Youyou said that, Yun Sining was still a little worried.
“I have had direct contact with that person. With the strength of her clone, she is definitely not someone that an ordinary Dragon Marrow Realm cultivator can defeat.”
"Fortunately, she doesn't know that I was the one who killed Chai Yanchen."
Yun Si Ning spoke softly, comforting Qing Yu, and also seemingly comforting herself.
"She doesn't know I'm still alive, and she won't suspect me anytime soon."
"I just hope that Master will be alright before we get back."
