Chapter 406 - Dishonest
Arriving in midair, Pei Chunyu and Xue Yang looked down from above to witness Poison Sect in a wretched state with corpses strewn all over the floor.
Warm blood flowed everywhere – it was a living hell beneath them!
Poison Sect was truly destroyed!
“How could this be?”
The same doubt flashed through the both of their minds.
In that bloody battle on the long street, the strength that Su Zimo displayed was far from enough to destroy Poison Sect.
Could that man have broken through once more and increased his strength significantly in more than ten days?
A look of caution flickered through their eyes.
With a stunned expression, Tang Yu asked, “What did I say?”
“You told me that killing a few Poison Sect cultivators was useless and would even make me a target for them to take revenge on.”
“So, you decided to destroy Poison Sect instead?”
“Yes.”
“… ”
Tang Yu’s frowned tightly and nearly exploded on the spot.
‘What I meant was for you to not provoke Poison Sect!’
‘But you went ahead and destroyed them instead!’
Taking a deep breath of air, Tang Yu composed herself.
She had lost her composure multiple times in less than two hours – she must not continue communicating with that person before her in the same manner.
Turning around, she looked towards Feng Manman at the side and said apologetically, “Sister Manman, I’m sorry. I’ve caused you to make a wasted trip.”
“It’s fine,”
Feng Manman smiled and swept away a few strands of hair covering her forehead flirtatiously before remarking meaningfully, “I’ve only found out about Young Master Su’s strength today. You’ve really got good judgment, Xiao Yu.”
By now, Tang Yu had already composed herself as she smiled in return. “Let’s head back to the city’s north.”
Along the way.
Tang Yu suddenly recalled something and turned to ask, “Right, I didn’t have time to ask. Did you manage to gain anything from your trip to the Saber Mountain Spirit Sea, Fellow Daoist Su?”
Feng Manman and the others turned as well towards Su Zimo.
“I did.”
Su Zimo smiled and nodded.
Hearing Su Zimo’s ambiguous reply, Tang Yu knew that he didn’t manage to obtain the Saber Emperor’s inheritance.
Furthermore, nobody thought that anybody could obtain the Saber Emperor’s inheritance since there was already the impression of someone else doing so.
If it was any other time, Tang Yu wouldn’t have continued pressing on lest Su Zimo looked bad.
However, for some reason, she wanted to see him embarrassed today. With a teasing glance, she continued asking, “So, what did you manage to gain? Could you have perhaps gotten the Saber Emperor’s inheritance?”
Her way of asking was extremely obvious.
“That’s right.”
Su Zimo continued smiling and replied naturally, as though it was real.
When she heard that, Feng Manman pouted and thought to herself, “Although this man is capable, he’s dishonest and wants to put on appearances.”
Tang Yu pursed her lips and smiled before shaking her head without asking anything more.
When everyone was about to arrive at the city’s north, a cultivator sped over from outside the city gates, yelling the moment he entered the city, “Big news! After a thousand years, somebody managed to obtain the Saber Emperor’s inheritance again! The saber mountain collapsed and the spirit sea dried up! The Saber Mountain Spirit Sea has vanished from the ancient battlefield completely!”
Suddenly, Tang Yu’s group slowed down and turned quiet.
