Chapter 152 - 123: Mysterious Visitor
In the midst of the spinning sky and earth, Lu Qian squeezed out his remaining divine sense and barely summoned the White Jade Flying Ship, allowing the two of them to land shakily on a mountain peak.
"Elder Guh, Fairy Nishang!"
Lu Qian urgently called out, but Guh Niqiang lay collapsed on the ship, completely motionless.
At this moment, Lu Qian’s hands were half-crippled, unable to move, and he couldn’t even pull Guh Niqiang slightly. He didn’t dare to put away the White Jade Flying Ship, afraid that if the ground suddenly disappeared beneath them, Guh Niqiang would roll off the cliff, so he struggled to move his body closer to take a look.
Guh Niqiang’s face was pale, her delicate brows tightly furrowed, and her usually full and vibrant red lips had lost their color. But her breathing was very steady, more like she was in a deep sleep than unconscious.
Lu Qian slightly relaxed.
There was no need to think about it; the elixir she just took must have been a drug that stimulated potential, capable of unleashing spiritual power for a short time, but the side effects must be considerable.
Now she lay with her cheek turned, asleep and unaware, quietly resting there. No one could connect her current state with the mighty Fairy Nishang from moments ago.
Lu Qian stared at her for a while, suddenly noticing that her clothes were disheveled, with the hem of her skirt rolled up to her knee, revealing her long, slender, white and smooth calf. His heart raced wildly, and he quickly turned away, afraid that Guh Niqiang might suddenly leap up and smash his head with a punch.
He then looked at his numb arm, revealing several charred holes, and thought about how, in this state, even if he wanted to behave indecently, he couldn’t. He found it incredibly amusing, and burst into laughter, startling the mountain birds into a frenzy.
In this battle, Guh Niqiang was injured and fell into a deep sleep, and he himself suffered severe injuries to his arms, likely needing a period of recovery. The Shahe Gang and Spirit Talisman Sect suffered even greater losses, losing one mid-stage foundation establishment and another early-stage foundation establishment was either dead or seriously injured, along with a large number of elite disciples.
Such losses can’t be concealed, and soon the Northwest Two Sects will detect it. The Shahe Gang and Spirit Talisman Sect will definitely have to defend their territory and won’t have time to invade the south.
This time, he indeed made a mistake, underestimating the world’s heroes, not expecting the two sect leaders to be so sharp and decisive, to strike as soon as they decided. They prepared Moth Fragrance and arranged a battle ambush, clearly planning in advance, just watching how he would respond. This time he showed weakness and was immediately bitten.
Had it not been for Guh Niqiang’s full-force explosion and his own adequate preparation beforehand, he would truly have been in mortal danger.
From now on, the Shuangye Alliance and the Northwest Two Sects are destined to be at odds, and the shares and shops in Shazhou Square are out of the question; even the introducer is a lost cause. It seems he must urgently contact the Northwest Two Sects after returning to the mountain gate.
Thinking of this, Lu Qian rested for a moment and then struggled to shake out the Communication Talisman from his clothing.
"About a hundred miles west of the mountain gate, quick response."
Jiang Qingfeng on the other end of the talisman immediately responded, allowing Lu Qian to relax and sit down to meditate.
After waiting for a small half hour, Lu Qian heard a distant shout from the sky, opening his eyes to see two magical artifacts flying low, searching carefully, and quickly stood up to respond loudly.
The escape light quickly flew over, landing promptly in front of Lu Qian. Seeing the situation, both sides were astonished.
Lu Qian was surprised at how many people had come. Jiang Qingfeng, Tan Hong and his wife, and Zheng Duan along with five inner sect disciples, even Master Xuan Ji had come. Jiang Qingfeng brought all the middle and late-stage of Qi Cultivation from Yunshan Sect.
The others were shocked by the condition of Lu Qian and Guh Niqiang. Seeing Lu Qian’s terrifying arm wounds made everyone instantly change their complexion.
Jiang Qingfeng let out an exclamation, her eyes reddening instantly, her heart tightly gripped, hands trembling, wanting to touch but afraid, tears falling profusely: "Junior Brother, what’s happened to you?"
Lu Qian comforted gently: "Don’t worry, although it looks scary, we aren’t lacking in miraculous elixirs. After some time it will be fine."
Zhang Lemei clenched his fist, Tan Hong shouted angrily: "Sect leader, who harmed you? We must avenge this!" The five disciples were also furious, their bodies tense.
After all, Master Xuan Ji was more experienced: "Was it the Shahe Gang and Spirit Talisman Sect?"
Lu Qian stood before Guh Niqiang, shielding her a bit, and instructed Zhang Lemei to help Guh Niqiang up first.
The crowd saw even the mighty and highly cultivated Guh Niqiang, now injured and unconscious, and guessed the ferocity of the battle, feeling a surge of fear.
Jiang Qingfeng cautiously supported Lu Qian, letting him lean on her body. Seeing Guh Niqiang’s sleeping appearance, her hand unconsciously tightened on Lu Qian’s shoulder, afraid of losing Lu Qian the next moment.
Heaven blessed them that his junior brother’s life was safe, otherwise...
Lu Qian briefly explained the course of events. Hearing about the lineup of five foundation establishments and dozens of Qi Cultivation elites, the disciples were shocked and angry, deeply realizing their own weakness and inability to avenge the great vengeance immediately.
Instead, Lu Qian comforted them a few words, encouraging them to persist in tough cultivation for a future day.
After hastily talking for a few moments, everyone planned to set up the flying spiritual artifact and quickly return to the mountain.
At this moment, a previously empty sky suddenly revealed a trail of escape light!
In the blink of an eye, a silhouette spun out from the escape light, a short-haired, short-bearded, medium-built man with sharp eyes stopped in front of everyone.
"Lu Qian, you’ve run away quite fast, truly made me search hard."
