Chapter 841

Chang Yun chased after them, but Chen Chi and Quan Qingcheng didn't move.

Chen Chi was badly injured; his true target was Ding Huan, not Guan Huan.

Quan Qingcheng was only there to lend support and saw no need to fight to the death.

Besides, the one he wanted to kill was also Ding Huan.

Wu Jiu's expression was grim.

Meng Chuan Nü's strength was undoubtedly far beyond ordinary Creation Dao cultivators, and her methods were numerous.

All dozens of killing rays she launched at him were illusions.

He had held back his full power and unwilling to suffer even a scratch, so he instinctively dodged.

Now Meng Chuan Nü had taken Guan Huan and Bai Yue away.

He had a premonition: this woman was extremely dangerous.

Chen Chi looked at Quan Qingcheng and Wu Jiu: "Lord Wu, Lord Quan, let's pursue them too. Lord Chang Yun alone may be at a disadvantage."

Wu Jiu summoned his flying treasure.

Quan Qingcheng also summoned his own flying treasure.

They were merely allies; no one trusted another enough to enter someone else's flying treasure.

If they had trusted each other completely, they wouldn't have let Meng Chuan Nü

take Guan Huan and Bai Yue away.

Chen Chi said gravely: "Let's ride one flying treasure together—then we can watch each other's backs."

In fact, if each of us rode our own flying treasure to pursue Guan Huan,

our chances would be greater,

since we could form an encirclement.

Yet both Chen Chi and Quan Qingcheng and Chang Yun knew clearly: Guan Huan's strength surpassed each of them.

If Guan Huan used a divide-and-conquer tactic, they would surely suffer.

If Guan Huan first targeted him, Chen Chi, he might be killed before the others could surround him.

Ding Huan stopped his cultivation—he was startled by Qin Qin's cultivation disturbances.

From the fluctuations of Qin Qin's Grand Dao Dao-essence and the shifting spatial laws, Ding Huan knew Qin Qin was validating the second step of the Grand Dao.

It seemed Qin Qin's validation of the second step was merely a matter of time.

Ding Huan felt his own cultivation speed was too slow.

To enter the Ninefold Sage, he must further perfect his Law Star River.

Next, he should perfect the Destruction Law Star River and the Wind-Thunder Law Star River.

This would cause his combat power to surge.

At that moment, his communication pearl flickered.

The message came from Guan Huan: "Chen Chi has arrived at Tian Xu Dao City."

Seeing this, Ding Huan knew trouble was coming.

If Chen Chi had gone to Tian Xu Dao City, it meant one thing:

Chen Chi and Chang Yun had allied, and they would surely offer Wu Jiu a tempting deal.

Moreover, Zuo Qiong must have allied with them too—otherwise, Chen Chi wouldn't dare go to Tian Xu Dao City, since Wu Jiu could still choose to ally with Zuo Qiong.

If it were someone else, Ding Huan wouldn't care.

After all, since they were allies, they shouldn't be swayed by opponents' offers.

But Wu Jiu—he didn't strike Ding Huan as the type to share life and death with an ally.

This man allied with them for one purpose only: profit.

If the profit from allying with Chen Chi and the others surpassed that of allying with them, Wu Jiu wouldn't flinch before betraying them.

Ding Huan immediately burst out of the ice prison—he had to reach Guan Huan and Bai Yue as quickly as possible.

Before Ding Huan even exited Tian Huan Abyss, he received another

message: "We're preparing to leave Tian Xu Dao City."

Seeing this message, Ding Huan stopped crushing the teleportation talisman.

If Guan Huan and the others had left Tian Xu Dao City, and he now crushed the talisman,

he would be teleported directly outside Tian Xu Dao City.

Indeed, after Ding Huan exited Tian Huan Nü Palace, he received Guan Huan's message.

Guan Huan wrote that they had been intercepted outside Tian Xu City; both Bai Yue and he were severely wounded and heading toward Tian Huan Nü Palace.

Through the communication pearl, Ding Huan indeed sensed the direction from which Guan Huan was approaching.

He summoned the Cosmic Cauldron and rushed out.

Just over an hour later, Ding Huan felt Guan Huan's location shifting constantly.

Without asking, Ding Huan knew: they were being chased.

At this moment, the Cosmic Cauldron's speed was pushed to its maximum.

Fortunately, Guan Huan was the one fleeing, and his flying treasure was no slouch—short-term, the pursuers couldn't catch up.

But this couldn't continue.

No matter how good Guan Huan's flying treasure was, it likely wasn't even Primordial-tier.

Even Ding Huan couldn't help but mentally scold Guan Huan: What the hell was he doing?

He'd reached the Creation Sage realm and still hadn't acquired even a decent flying treasure?

Ding Huan halted the Cosmic Cauldron.

If he continues like this, before he reaches Guan Huan and the others, Guan Huan will be intercepted.

Ding Huan decisively packed away the Cosmic Pot and activated the teleportation rune.

The teleportation dao-essence wrapped the space where Ding Huan stood and carried him away.

When Ding Huan landed, he was outside Tianxu Dao City.

There were no strong cultivators left in Tianxu Dao City—not even Wu Qiu.

Clearly, all these bastards had gone to hunt down Guan Huan.

Looking at the imposing Tianxu Dao City in the distance, Ding Huan gritted his teeth in fury.

? TtkΛn? CO

If it weren't for going to pick up Guan Huan, he would have leveled this place to the ground.

He summoned the Cosmic Pot again, and sure enough, Guan Huan was now closer.

The Cosmic Pot surged at full speed toward Guan Huan's location.

He simultaneously activated the communication bead's dao-essence, allowing Guan Huan to sense his position.

Guan Huan, through the communication bead, sensed Ding Huan's position suddenly appear behind him—he instantly understood.

Ding Huan used a teleportation rune; he must now be departing from Tianxu Dao City.

So Guan Huan turned his flying artifact in a wide arc.

"Guan Daofriend, are you turning back?" Meng Chuan woman noticed Guan Huan's move at once and eyed him warily.

Guan Huan silently thought: this woman is far too sharp.

He didn't hide anything from Meng Chuan woman—after all, both he and Bai Yue had been saved by her.

Meng Chuan woman hadn't just saved Bai Yue—she'd even brought his severed arm.

Otherwise, Bai Yue's path to achieving the Yanjie Realm would have been even harder.

"Meng Daofriend, Ding Huan brother teleported to the outskirts of Tianxu Dao City and is now coming from there."

"Once we reunite with Ding Huan brother, we'll be safe."

Hearing Guan Huan's explanation, Meng Chuan woman exhaled in relief.

She accepted Guan Huan's words.

Because Ding Huan's pot was the best flying artifact she had ever seen—without exception.

Seeing Guan Huan actually loop around and return to Tian

xu Dao City.

Quan Qingcheng stared in confusion: "What does Guan Huan mean by this?"

Wu Yao's heart jolted—he roughly understood Guan Huan's intent.

This was definitely Ding Huan returning to Tianxu Dao City via the tracking teleportation rune he'd given him.

Guan Huan is going back to reunite with Ding Huan.

But Wu Jiu dared not speak up.

He feared that if he did, Chen Chi and the others would blame him.

Either way, it wouldn't make much difference whether he spoke or not.

The instant Ding Huan's spiritual sense swept over Guan Huan's spaceship, Guan Huan's vessel appeared before the Cosmic Pot.

"Ding Huan brother."

Seeing Ding Huan, Guan Huan was overjoyed.

Even Meng Chuan woman was delighted.

Indeed, they had found Ding Huan.

Though Ding Huan's cultivation was lower than theirs, Meng Chuan woman had absolute faith—he could get them all out alive.

"Get on and talk," Ding Huan signaled the three to board the Cosmic Pot; his spiritual sense had already spotted Chen Chi and the others.

Besides Chen Chi, his spiritual sense also detected Chang

Yun farther behind.

Originally, Ding Huan had planned to set up some traps—lay a Ten-Thousand-Toxin Great Array, then trap them with the Law of Sinking.

But time clearly wasn't enough.

Today, I'll let these Wang Ba off easy.

The Cosmic Pot rippled space with waves of distortion, then vanished without a trace.

Chen Chi halted his pursuit.

They could never catch up to Ding Huan's speed.

Soon, Chang Yun landed on his flying artifact before Chen Chi and the others.

He felt deeply frustrated.

His flying artifact was superior to Guan Huan's—he'd secretly circled ahead, planning to flank Guan Huan with Chen Chi and the others.

But Guan Huan had looped back mid-flight—his entire effort was useless.

Wu Jiu's face darkened.

Of them all, he suffered most from Guan Huan's escape.

If Ding Huan and Guan Huan don't come for him, he'll have been blind.

With Ding Huan's nature—vengeance is certain—how could he not come to Tianxu Dao City?

If Ding Huan were easygoing, the Qu Clan Dao Court wouldn't have been wiped out.

Why was the Qu Clan Dao Court wiped out?

Wasn't it because Qu Ge issued a bounty on Ding Huan?

The mistake he committed was far greater than Qu Ge's wanted notice for Ding Huan.

"Brother Wu, Brother Chen, let's head to the Heavenly Huan Women's Palace right now." Chang Yun wished he could devour Ding Huan and Guan Huan alive on the spot.

Quan Qingcheng said slowly, "The outer perimeter of the Heavenly Huan Women's Palace is entirely permeated by the Dao of Poison. We can't get in either."

"Even if we can't get in, we have to find a way. Alliance Leader Quan, Ding Huan is a petty man—he wiped out the Qu Clan Dao Court over a trivial matter. If we don't kill him now, none of us will ever know peace."

Chang Yun looked at Quan Qingcheng with a grave tone.

He was reminding Quan Qingcheng that his Great Wheel Dao Court had taken part in the pursuit of Guan Huan, and now the only path was to see it through to the end—kill both Ding Huan and Guan Huan.

Otherwise, in the future the Great Wheel Commerce Guild would have nothing but a dead end ahead.

Quan Qingcheng's face darkened.

Regret began to well up inside him.

Regret over joining forces with that scheming bastard Chang Yun.

Originally, as he figured it, Guan Huan was in the Heaven Ruins Dao City, and if they struck suddenly, killing Guan Huan would have been a sure thing.

But against all odds, something went wrong.

What made him regret even more was that, in this operation against Guan Huan, only his Great Wheel Commerce Guild had stepped forward.

Although the Ji Clan Commerce Guild and the Xu Star Commerce Guild had also joined the alliance, they hadn't sent a single person, not even had time to swear a Great Dao oath.

Now that Guan Huan had slipped away, as long as they couldn't eliminate Guan Huan in time, these two commerce guilds would very likely drop out midway.

Shen Chi understood in his heart that now was their best moment to kill Guan Huan and Ding Huan. Once Ding Huan was given time to grow, all they could do was wait for the two of them to exact endless revenge.

"Let's go, we're heading to the Heavenly Huan Women's Palace." He immediately agreed with Chang Yun's words.

"Going to the Heavenly Huan Women's Palace doesn't require riding a flying treasure. I have a way—we'll teleport straight there, then hide at the outer perimeter of the Heavenly Huan Women's Palace and ambush these people.

Also, notify Zuo Qiong and the other two commerce guilds. Since we're joining forces, everyone should strike together; there's no reason for anyone to reap the rewards without lifting a finger."

Chang Yun clenched his fist.

Though his injuries weren't as severe as Shen Chi's, the pent-up frustration in his heart was greater than anyone's.

Guan Huan had been pinned outside the Heaven Abyss Dao City by him for several thousand years, and during that time he himself had made obvious progress—yet he still wasn't a match for Guan Huan. How utterly stifling.
