Chapter 1102: Chapter 1098: Intimidation

Under everyone’s gaze, Lu Xiaolu wrapped his waist with white silk, like a wisp of smoke, disappearing into the distance in the blink of an eye.

Lu Gengshen praised, ”Junior Sister Lu lives up to her reputation.”

Qi Qingmei smiled.

Lu Gengshen sighed, ”Such Qinggong is indeed an unparalleled gift, beyond our reach.”

Qi Qingmei said, ”Junior Brother Lu, Xiao Lu cannot hear these words.”

Lu Gengshen laughed, ”I express this sincerely, not just to flatter.”

Qi Qingmei chuckled lightly, shaking her head, ”You should say this in front of Xiao Lu, she would be overjoyed.”

”Haha, wouldn’t that be too blunt?” Lu Gengshen said, ”Will Junior Brother Chu be alright?”

Qi Qingmei said, ”Junior Brother Chu is extremely capable, and with Xiao Lu, there is no danger.”

Zhou Chongming nodded, ”No need to worry about the two of them, let’s think about Fuyun Sect instead.”

Lu Gengshen said, ”Haven’t they arrived yet?”

”Impossible,” Zhou Chongming said.

Lu Gengshen shook his head, ”Fuyun Sect always sways with the wind, when the situation looks bad, they flee faster than anyone.”

Zhou Chongming frowned.

Qi Qingmei said, ”Fuyun Sect is nimble, but when facing demons, they certainly won’t retreat, and I’ve already encountered Li Xinhe.”

Zhou Chongming slowly nodded, ”Fuyun Sect is reliable at critical moments.”

Lu Gengshen disagreed, ”What if they encountered our situation just now? They might have retreated long ago, right?”

Zhou Chongming was silent.

He agreed with Lu Gengshen’s judgment.

If they encountered the situation just now, Fuyun Sect would indeed have withdrawn and turned back.

But not Lu Gengshen and the others, they would persevere until they reached their goal, insisting on moving forward.

It is not about character, but rather the mental method that governs.

Fuyun Sect’s mental method is ethereal, with the clouds following the wind, emphasizing adapting to circumstances and not opposing the general trend.

Guiyang Sword Sect, on the other hand, is exceedingly bright and intense, emphasizing resolute determination without yielding.

The more obstacles there are, the more they must persist.

Qi Qingmei said, ”Fuyun Sect won’t retreat without a reason.”

”I hope I’m wrong,” said Lu Gengshen.

...

Chu Zhiyuan and Lu Xiaolu floated along, the white silk transmitting a strange True Yuan to him, making him light and providing immense power.

He didn’t need to activate Qinggong himself, he only needed to focus on cultivation.

Lu Xiaolu was galloping while curiously observing the surroundings.

In Chu Zhiyuan’s eyes, the scenery around appeared somewhat monotonous, consisting merely of dense forests, jagged rocks, and towering peaks.

The verdant greenery was indeed pleasing to the eye.

But seeing such sights everywhere became somewhat dull and uninteresting.

However, Lu Xiaolu looked on with great interest, perceiving no boredom, and kept looking without growing tired.

While Chu Zhiyuan was cultivating, he curiously asked the reason.

Lu Xiaolu, surprised, said, ”Every tree is different, every forest is different, every mountain is different, how can one be tired of it?”

”Really?”

”There is a huge difference. Like this area is osmanthus, while that area is elm, their natures are opposite, yet they are so close, quite peculiar.”

”Oh?”

”There must be a reason for this, logically, they shouldn’t coexist.”

”So what’s the reason?”

”It might be that these two mountains are different, maybe this mountain originally was in the north and moved here.”

”Mountains can move?”

”A hundred thousand years ago, there was a mountain-moving event, causing many mountains to move far away.”

”I see.” Chu Zhiyuan’s spirit lifted, ”What changed in the world after that?”

He had never heard of this before.

”After that, demons began to appear; before that, there were no demons, only the Evil Sect.”

”These demons like Mouse Demon and Snake Demon only started appearing a hundred thousand years ago?”

”Yes.”

”And what about nature’s spiritual energy?”

”No significant change for us,” Lu Xiaolu said, ”but it greatly impacted these animals, especially those living deep in the mountains.”

”Deep mountains...” Chu Zhiyuan nodded, ”Like in Qinglian Sea?”

”Yes, the places where these demons gather are often in deep mountains, and we’ve suppressed many like in Qinglian Sea.”

”A hundred thousand years ago...” Chu Zhiyuan slowly nodded.

He always wondered about the difficult ascension in Little Heaven Beyond, whether it was due to any anomaly in Biyuan Heaven.

Apparently, this wasn’t due to this event.

As the two talked idly, they didn’t delay their swift movement, and Chu Zhiyuan didn’t delay cultivating.

After stepping into the Venerable stage, advancing each transition wasn’t as easy.

He estimated his progress, and at this pace, it would take at least a month to reach the Second Transition.

This was just from the First to the Second Transition; two to three and three to four would take even longer.

At this rate, reaching the Nine Transitions was hard to calculate accurately.

As they conversed, Chu Zhiyuan was operating his cultivation and using his insight to survey the surroundings.

After traveling about fifty miles forward, he suddenly turned his head to look at a certain place, squinting his eyes.

”Made a discovery?” Lu Xiaolu’s spirit lifted.

Chu Zhiyuan said, ”It seems to be the senior brothers of Fuyun Sect.”

Lu Xiaolu promptly asked, ”Where?”

Chu Zhiyuan extended his left hand, pointing diagonally forward, ”That place, ten miles away.”

Lu Xiaolu immediately advanced in the direction he pointed, crossing over four peaks and stopping at the foot of a mountain.

She saw the anomaly there.

A group of demons were besieging a mountain cave halfway up the mountain.

This cave was about as high as a person, its clear light flickered like a waterfall flowing down.

But it was a waterfall formed by sword light, bright and dense, impervious without any opening.

Wave after wave charged towards the cave, but were blocked by the bright sword light, unable to breach it.

Wave after wave of demons, disbelieving, charged up but all to no avail.

Even if they couldn’t break through the Sword Net, they continued attacking one after another.

When one got injured, they’d retreat, replaced by other demons to continue the assault.

It was apparent it was a strategy of attrition, depleting the cave’s sword web power.

Lu Xiaolu’s spirit lifted, whispering, ”This is Fuyun Sect’s swordsmanship!”

Chu Zhiyuan said, ”Fuyun Sect is hiding here to defend, they must have been here for a while.”

Looking at the decay of the surrounding plants and the condition from trampling, one could deduce they’ve been there for more than a day.

Lu Xiaolu said, ”Fuyun Sect has great tenacity, ... should we take care of these demons?”

She took a quick look and found there were over forty demons attacking in turns.

These demons were varied, including Tiger Demon, Bear Demon, Fox Demon, and Leopard Demon.

Although these demons were formidable in cultivation, they couldn’t withstand the Demon Suppressing Saber.

Once the Demon Suppressing Saber is used, it could easily wipe out these demons.

Chu Zhiyuan softly said, ”These demons seem to cooperate very seamlessly with each other.”

”Hmm.” Lu Xiaolu, with his indication, immediately understood.

Chu Zhiyuan said, ”There is a Great Demon overseeing and commanding them.”

Lu Xiaolu’s eyes shone, ”There’s a Great Demon behind them!”

Chu Zhiyuan slowly nodded, his gaze scanning the surroundings.

Lu Xiaolu said, ”The Great Demon probably isn’t here, otherwise, they might have already broken through Fuyun Sect’s defense?”

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head, ”These Great Demons are very cautious, not acting unless certain, they might be watching closely nearby.”

Now he understood the traits of Great Demons; they wouldn’t act easily unless they had absolute confidence.

”...Indeed, shall we send a signal then?” Lu Xiaolu asked.

Chu Zhiyuan nodded.

Now that they found experts from Fuyun Sect, there was no need to take unnecessary risks.

Summoning Zhou Chongming and the others to arrive quickly would help fend off the Great Demon or even deter it.

Lu Xiaolu pulled out a bamboo tube from her sleeve and tossed it into the sky.

”Bang!” The bamboo tube exploded in the air, sending up a flare.

The flare rose into the sky and exploded into a golden longsword shape.

Lu Xiaolu then pulled Chu Zhiyuan along, flitting away like a wisp of smoke.

Chu Zhiyuan took out the short sword, pressing the hilt as the sword emerged halfway.

The aura of the Heavenly Sword flickered in and out.

He vaguely felt that the Great Demon was lurking around, watching intently, ready to strike unexpectedly at any moment.

This Little Heavenly Sword was the best deterrent.
