Longevity Begins From Raising Disciples

Chapter 581 - 290: Chased Across a Thousand Miles, Qi Kingdom’s Border!

The sudden bloodshed made Zhang Chuxi, who had maintained her composure, tremble all over.

Having lived in the Lingyin Sect for a long time, she had heard of the bloodiness of the Demon Cultivators from the Emotion Crossing Sect.

As a child, she often listened to her senior brothers and sisters discuss the evil deeds of demons.

Inevitably, she harbored a shadow in her heart towards Demon Cultivators.

Witnessing this scene, her beautiful starry eyes were tinged with panic, and she hurriedly stood up, speaking incoherently:

"You... who are you? Where is Guardian Chen?"

Could it be that this person skinned Chen Ye?

She had heard there was a demon in the Emotion Crossing Sect known as Skinning Elder, who had a penchant for slaughtering Cultivators and skinning them to change appearances.

The Demon Cultivator sneered upon hearing this: "Hehe... little beauty, you talk too much nonsense."

This Demon Cultivator was named Yuan Ye, a Foundation Establishment Fifth Layer Cultivator.

This showed the importance the Emotion Crossing Sect placed on the Wall Resting Spirit Body.

One must know that before Bai Susu closed in seclusion, she was also at the Foundation Establishment Fifth Layer, which was already at the level of Lingyin’s Spirit Hidden True Inheritance Cultivator.

As for the Foundation Establishment Late Period, they were already the Venerables who ruled over regions. How could they lurk for long-term assassination of a promising talent from another sect?

To plot against Bai Susu, they only sent Mei Suxin...

Yuan Ye did not know any Chen Ye.

But when the Emotion Crossing Sect besieged the Lingyin Sect, the sect learned from informants that before the siege, the Wall Resting Spirit Body of the Lingyin Sect happened to leave the sect and come to the Moon Rhinoceros Lake District.

Therefore, the sect dispatched him to await the opportunity.

After waiting for many days, he finally saw this Wall Resting Spirit Body leave the Moon Rhinoceros Lake District.

He intended to take her down directly.

However, this girl was overly arrogant, constantly prattling to her four guards about how to torment that Guardian later.

Her tone was confident, as if a cat playing with a mouse.

Hearing this, he suddenly felt like toying with her, so he casually cast a Blinding Technique to manipulate her mind, wanting to savor the expression of this young lady.

Conveniently, there were too many Cultivators around her, allowing him to take the opportunity to kill one or two first.

Deceiving hearts had always been the specialty of the Emotion Crossing Sect.

Under his Magic, these four Foundation Establishment Early Period Cultivators didn’t notice any flaws at first glance.

Perhaps if they had more time, they would notice something was wrong.

But unfortunately, by then it was already too late!

"Miss! Retreat quickly!"

"Form a formation! Protect the Miss!"

The remaining three guards quickly snapped out of their shock.

Though their hearts were cold, they were experienced enough to know they were no match for Yuan Ye, quickly forming a triangle to shield Zhang Chuxi behind them, releasing their Magical Treasures to cover her retreat.

Yuan Ye, seeing this, merely curled his lips playfully, not rushing to chase.

"Want to leave?" he laughed hoarsely, "My prey does not have a reason to escape."

He transformed into a bloody wind, trailing leisurely behind Zhang Chuxi.

Not that he underestimated his opponent.

On the contrary, he valued this Wall Resting Spirit Body greatly.

This girl likely had the means of Lingyin Sect’s Golden Core Elders on her. If he acted rashly, he might end up in a ditch.

He was here to capture, not to die.

All he needed to do was drive the group into the Qi Kingdom, and then he could handle them as he wished!

...

Meanwhile, the night was deep.

A silhouette flew swiftly on a Flying Sword, sticking to the shadows of the riverbank.

"I hope nothing really happens to that little ancestor." Chen Ye was uneasy.

Forget it.

If Zhang Chuxi gets into trouble, she gets into trouble.

Just don’t drag Qing Jun down with her!

Chen Ye now wished he could skin this young lady alive; if he had known, he wouldn’t have let Qing Jun make friends with her.

Anyway,

Having her master with her should be enough!

This is what comes of poor friendship! If he had not previously wanted to facilitate the relationship between Qing Jun and Zhang Chuxi, Qing Jun wouldn’t be out playing with Zhang Chuxi now.

Soon, the broken outlines of the Guan Hai Cottage appeared in sight.

Seeing this, Chen Ye breathed a sigh of relief, thinking to himself:

"I’m about half an incense stick late. The letter only briefly mentioned the Guan Hai Cottage being built along the river, making it sound easy. Where am I supposed to find it? If I didn’t have a robust Divine Sense for large-scale searching, I’d be even later."

The heart was regretful, yet his Flying Sword did not pause, cutting through the night mist to land steadily before the gate of the Guan Hai Cottage.

Even before he pushed the gate, a thick, nauseating stench of blood hit him.

Chen Ye’s heart sank.

At this moment, he would have preferred to hear Zhang Chuxi’s bluster.

Opening the gate and entering, in the center of the courtyard lay the corpse of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, eyes wide open, fallen in a pool of blood after his skull had been pierced.

Near the main hall, the place was a mess, with half a corpse hanging from a scorched beam, another Foundation Establishment Cultivator!

"Xu Changhe said there were four skillful Foundation Establishment guards by Zhang Chuxi’s side, plus Aunt Lan, making five Foundation Establishment Cultivators. But... two are already dead!"

Chen Ye’s face darkened; something did go wrong!

He and Xu Changhe were only worried about a slight chance.

After all, with five Foundation Establishment Cultivators at Zhang Chuxi’s side, no incident should happen unless a renowned Demon Cultivator made a move.

But who would have thought, they really encountered such an old demon?

"No... how can such a coincidence occur? It seems there really was a Demon Cultivator watching Zhang Chuxi. But... she just left the sect not long ago. How did the Emotion Crossing Sect find out? Could it be the Demon Cultivators have already infiltrated Baopu Peak?"

Concerned for Qing Jun, Chen Ye’s heart burned with anxiety, but he forced himself to calm down and began to inspect the scene.

He looked at the Cultivator in the center of the courtyard and noticed something amiss:

"This person seems to have been ambushed? There are no signs of a struggle; he must have been caught off guard and killed instantly, not even having time to use his Magical Treasure."

Beside the master seat, there was a cup of slightly warm tea.

A short while ago, Zhang Chuxi must have been sitting in the master seat, sipping tea, watching helplessly as the deceased was ambushed.
