My Master Knows It All

Chapter 1563: Chapter 361_6

Why have I never heard of someone so strong before?

Cao Zhen looked at Ruo Yun with some surprise; this woman’s insight was indeed sharp.

However, this woman was quite admirable.

Although this woman was strong, without me, she would definitely not be a match for the eight members of the Weeping Blood Demon Sect. Yet when I initially pretended to surrender, she didn’t abandon Linghu Gudu but chose to break through with him.

Seeing this, her character is actually quite good.

“Alright, let’s tidy up the battlefield first.” Cao Zhen raised a hand, pointing to the bodies around them, saying, “There are eight people; I’ll take the treasures and Qiankun Bags from four of them, and the remaining four are for you two to split. Any objections?”

“No objections.” Ruo Yun Immortal nodded readily, clearly not very concerned about these treasures and Qiankun Bags. In fact, during the recent battle, Linghu Gudu didn’t contribute much, yet she still casually collected the treasures and Qiankun Bags from two individuals before stopping, evidently intending to share them equally with Linghu Gudu.

After collecting the Qiankun Bags and treasures from the other four, Cao Zhen didn’t even look at the valuables inside, knowing he already had the most precious Unknown Immortal Demon Bead. Considering these people’s possessions, they likely didn’t have anything else of value.

“Alright, since that’s settled, we should…” Cao Zhen was just about to suggest they study the jade pendant-like key while on the move when a series of sounds came from nearby, and four figures appeared within their line of sight.

Clearly, someone had heard the sounds of the battle and came over.

The four only glanced in their direction from afar, noticing the bodies on the ground, and after a brief look at the three of them, they turned abruptly and fled into the distance.

“Run!”

“Those were Weeping Blood Demon Sect people, and among them was even the Shaxue Demon, yet they’re all dead! These three aren’t to be trifled with!”

“Who are those three, to have even killed Shaxue Demon and his men?”

The four ran while whispering to each other, their hearts filled with dread.

They knew the Fourth Dangerous Terrain was perilous, but they thought the danger largely came from the terrain itself. However, now it seemed that the human threat here was not small either.

From when they heard the sounds of battle until now, not much time had passed, yet the eight experts including the Shaxue Demon were already dead!

Cao Zhen watched the fleeing four but had no intention of pursuing.

The others were very cautious, only observing from a distance without approaching.

With so much distance and surrounded by dense forest instead of open land, if they hid in the woods, took a few turns, or found somewhere to conceal themselves, it would indeed be difficult to find them.

Cao Zhen looked back at Ruo Yun Immortal and Linghu Gudu, shaking his head with a sigh. “You two are in danger. Some have already seen that we killed the eight people from the Weeping Blood Demon Sect, and previously, that person named Hao Sword also escaped; he can also testify that we did it.

Considering the Weeping Blood Demon Sect’s usual behavior, once they know we killed their people, they’ll definitely come seeking revenge. I may not care, but you two could be in trouble.”

As Cao Zhen spoke, his gaze fell on Linghu Gudu, adding, “Especially you. Not only are you weak, but there’s also something you did that upset someone, and now you’re being hunted by mercenaries.

I fear that as soon as you leave the Fourth Dangerous Terrain, you’ll be killed, or perhaps, you may not even make it out alive.”

Linghu Gudu was speechless. Weak?

During the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth, he was a notable figure. Back then in the Eastern Wasteland, how many attained the Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection?

He was one of them.

Even when the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth ended, although he hadn’t reached the Golden Core Period Limit, he was still close to it.

Among his peers, he was definitely a formidable presence.

Yet now, this so-called Linghu Defeat said he was weak!

Unfortunately, he couldn’t argue against it.

Among the three, he was indeed the weakest.

Beside him, Ruo Yun Immortal was unconcerned, saying, “The Weeping Blood Demon Sect, their Great Teaching isn’t bad, but I’m alone; how could they deal with me?

Would they muster their full force against me? If too few come, they’ll merely be courting death!” As she spoke, an overwhelming aura enveloped her entire being.

She was a reincarnated great ability!

And an exceedingly powerful one at that!

In her past life, she was not inferior to the leaders of those great sects!

Cao Zhen, feeling Ruo Yun’s imposing aura, involuntarily thought of his disciple Yi Sheng. Back when he first met Yi Sheng, Yi Sheng was equally proud, infinitely confident, believing herself the best under heaven.

Yet what happened? After joining the Four Treasures Peak, Yi Sheng took some blows, and he had to frequently bolster her confidence.

Of course, it wasn’t the time to humble Ruo Yun Immortal now; that could wait until later when the opportunity arose, to gradually bring her down a notch, then have her join the Hundred Peaks Sect.

Those proud individuals, in truth, have a submissive core!

Cao Zhen glanced at Ruo Yun Immortal, his gaze shifting to Linghu Gudu.

Similarly, Ruo Yun Immortal looked at Linghu Gudu.

Feeling their gazes upon him, Linghu Gudu was resigned, realizing they clearly looked down on him, assuming he would be killed by the Weeping Blood Demon Sect.

I…

“I… Although I’m not as strong as you, I am not alone… I might as well, after exiting the Fourth Dangerous Terrain, seek refuge in the Hundred Peaks Sect.

No, Cao Zhen also entered this Fourth Dangerous Terrain, and he used the same passage as us. I’ll just go find him, considering their Hundred Peaks Sect also holds a grudge against the Weeping Blood Demon Sect. My joining wouldn’t hurt.”

Cao Zhen almost blurted out a thank you, wondering why in good times he wasn’t thought of but was remembered now. Also, when he initially invited Linghu Gudu to join the Hundred Peaks Sect, he refused, yet now he wished to hide within the sect.

Does he think the Hundred Peaks Sect is a place where he can simply seek refuge?

If he wants to hide in the Hundred Peaks Sect, he must first acknowledge me as his master!
