Chapter 488 - You Sure Are Bold!
Blood Crow Palace’s Lord fled more than a thousand meters away.
The remaining cultivators were dumbfounded.
This was supposed to be a calamity for Ethereal Peak and yet, the tides turned immediately after the appearance of a cultivator!
The advantage of Blood Crow Palace and the other four major sects had disappeared entirely.
Su Zimo’s gaze burned bright like a torch and he swept past the crowd. He could not find Perfected Being Cang Lang and sneered internally, “You sure are quick to run.”
Many cultivators yelled and fled everywhere.
The Blood Crow King gazed above the clouds at that terrifying figure standing in midair. He had a venomous look that lingered for a brief moment before he turned to escape.
All of a sudden!
The gauze-top woman shook her head and turned to Su Zimo. “The reason I stood forth this time round was because I was bequeathed to repay a favor.”
Upon hearing that, Su Zimo no longer had any doubts.
She gauze-top woman was definitely Gu Xi!
The person who bequeathed her should be Demoness Ji.
Instinctively, he turned to look around but did not catch sight of Demoness Ji.
Ling Yun followed the gauze-top woman’s gaze and froze momentarily.
“Zimo?”
The elders of Ethereal Peak revealed odd expressions when they heard that as well.
A Nascent Soul as powerful as such came forth just to repay a favor for a Foundation Establishment Cultivator?
The gauze-top woman continued, “If you want to express your thanks, do it to him.”
With that, the gauze-top woman did not linger and flew away.
Ling Yun and the others looked at Su Zimo with endless admiration in their eyes, as though they had just discovered the most precious treasure in this world!
Even without the gauze-top woman’s remark, Su Zimo had done great merits in this battle.
Furthermore, he was at Extreme Foundation Establishment1
This was the second person after the Human Emperor in history to have achieved that.
If he was already able to kill Golden Cores and possessed such terrifying potential and combat strength at Foundation Establishment realm, his future accomplishments would definitely not be inferior to that person above the clouds!
Of course, the Asura of the fiend sects was still the key to them turning the tides and securing victory.
Prior to this, everyone in Ethereal Peak harbored immense hatred towards those of the fiend sects. As people of the immortal sects and the path of righteousness, they viewed the extermination of fiends and demons as a personal duty and would definitely not want to be associated with anyone of the fiend sects.
But now, after this incident, everyone had complicated feelings towards those of the fiend sects, or at least, towards Yan Beichen.
It did not matter whether he betrayed the sect or he was an evil fiend. What was undeniable was that Ethereal Peak owed him a lifesaving debt.
Ling Yun wanted to head forth and express his thanks.
However, when Yan Beichen remained thousands of feet up above the clouds, Ling Yun couldn’t reach that height given his cultivation realm.
Yan Beichen’s hands were behind his back and he had a cold expression, giving off an aura that forbade people from approaching him.
A Grand Elder shook his head and said, “Forget it. Even if you head up, given that person’s cold and aloof nature, he wouldn’t pay any attention to you.”
“That’s right. After all, we are all considered to be of the younger generations compared to him. Senior crane is probably the only person in the sect who is qualified to speak to him,” Another Grand Elder added.
Ling Yun nodded.
Right then, Yan Beichen who was initially up above the clouds suddenly descended.
Instantly, he arrived before everyone else and looked at Su Zimo, saying indifferently, “Su Zimo, follow me.”
With that said, he turned and headed in the direction of Ethereal Peak’s Thunderclap Valley.
Everyone from Ethereal Peak was shocked.
The Grand Elders who spoke earlier on almost bit their tongue as their eyes widened!
Did the two of them… know one another?
