Chapter 110 - Old Enemy
Little Yuan’er did not laugh. Perhaps, her funny bone had become immune to these situations. She walked to Lu Zhou and said in a soft voice, “Master… They’re terribly afraid of you.”
Lu Zhou stroked his beard and looked in the direction of Measure Heaven River. Based on his calculations, Mingshi Yin and Duanmu Sheng were supposed to arrive by now. As for Hua Wudao, based on what he heard, it seemed like he would be seeing Hua Wudao sooner or later. If that was the case, all he had to do was guard the tree stump as he waited for the rabbit. There was no need to look for Hua Wudao everywhere. If Hua Wudao knew who the mastermind behind the Fish Dragon incident was, it would be even better. At this moment, the best person for him to get information from was Hua Wudao.
The witchcraft elite from the palace was extremely cunning. He was capable of setting up the Grand Witchcraft Formation at Measure Heaven River and observing the situation through the red flying chariot while giving out orders at the same time. It was apparent that he was highly skilled in witchcraft. Moreover, he was powerful enough to command Chen Zhu, one of the Three Godly Archers. He must enjoy a high status and have great influence as well.
After the battle at Measure Heaven River, this elite would surely be more cautious and cunning. Jiang Aijian had connections in the palace, but even he could not approach that person, let alone someone like Lu Zhou who was an outsider.
“Hua Wudao…” Lu Zhou muttered to himself.
“Our sect master is honestly preoccupied right now… I should be beheaded for making you wait, grandmaster!” Zhang Chu, the fifth elder, said with a bow.
Lu Zhou merely looked at him indifferently before ignoring him. ‘He’s only a Divine Court realm cultivator, and yet, he’s already an elder of the sect. It seems like the Righteous Sect isn’t what it used to be…’
The Green Jade was already in sight. Then, he suddenly turned in another direction. This was the Righteous Sect’s territory, after all.
“Where’s master?” Mingshi Yin scratched his head as he surveyed his surroundings. He slowed down, preparing to descend. He looked behind him as he muttered to himself, “Third Senior Brother should be here soon! Although he doesn’t have the Overlord Spear, I’m still faster than he is!” He laughed gleefully.
Mingshi Yin was still feeling pleased with himself when a shrill cry rang from the direction of the Green Jade Altar.
“Mingshi Yin!”
Mingshi Yin looked behind. He frowned. He recognized the person immediately. He cried out, “Zhang Qiuchi? It’s you?”
“There are paths to heaven, and yet, you abandoned them. There are no doors to hell, and yet, you’ve barged right in!” Zhang Qiuchi hovered in the air with his hands on his back. He looked at Mingshi Yin with a burning gaze as though he was looking at his prey.
Mingshi Yin waved his hand and said, “I’m in no mood to fight you today… Have you seen my master?”
Zhang Qiuchi was momentarily stunned. Then, he said in a deep voice, “Do you think you can frighten me with your master’s name? I’ll mete out justice on behalf of the heavens today!”
“Wait.” Mingshi Yin waved his hand again. “I’m serious, have you seen my master?”
Zhang Qiuchi was provoked by Mingshi Yin’s seemingly flippant behavior. He said harshly, “If I see him, I’ll kill him as well!”
Bzzt!
Primal Qi converged from the surroundings.
Zhang Qiuchi made a few hand seals, and Daoist Mudras began circling him.
Primal Qi continued to surge.
Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm!
At this moment, the disciples from the Green Jade Altar who finally caught up to them landed on the ground, surrounding them.
Mingshi Yin looked at the sky and did not see his master at all. ‘I’ve fallen for master’s tricks again!’
