Chapter 213: Mount Chichan, destroyed!

When the moon reached the middle of the sky.

Two flying boats, hundreds of streaks of light, galloping dragon-horses, wind and smoke rising together.

Treading the moonlight, they arrived at high speed.

"Fellow Daoist Nangong!"

"Fellow Daoist Li!"

Hearing these two sentences, the troops on both sides slowly stopped.

Nangong Jin hunched his back, looking at the Gaoling Plain battlefield with a grey and defeated expression.

The smell of blood was almost nauseating.

He gave a bitter smile. "It seems you haven't fared much better either!"

These words were somewhat grating.

However, when Luo Chen looked at the dozen or so remaining late-stage Qi Refining cultivators on the Nangong family's flying boat, he could only sigh.

The other party was in an even more miserable state than their Luo Tian Society!

Back when they arrived at Dahe Workshop in a grand manner, although they couldn't be called incomparably powerful, they could still be called a regional hegemon.

But now, after many twists and turns, only these few stragglers remained.

"What are your plans for the next step?" Luo Chen asked.

Li Yixian said without hesitation, "Since we have already offended the Huo family, we should naturally unite our efforts to resist the great enemy!"

What a clever woman!

Luo Chen glanced at her; it was clear she hadn't told Nangong Jin everything that Luo Chen and Yu Rou had said here earlier.

If she had, knowing that Luo Chen had shouldered the wrath of Huo Quan alone.

Nangong Jin certainly wouldn't have chosen to travel together.

But now, it was everyone offending the Huo family together, being targeted by the Huo family.

In order to avoid being targeted individually, Nangong Jin had only one choice.

Sure enough.

Nangong Jin said despondently, "Let's go together! If Huo Quan pursues, relying on the three of us, perhaps we can still maneuver a bit."

"Not just three, there is also Fellow Daoist Wang Yuan!" Li Yixian added.

It was clear that although Wang Yuan had not yet reached Foundation Establishment, his two cross-realm battles had already made her acknowledge his strength.

Nangong Jin nodded, finally gaining a glimmer of confidence.

Four Foundation Establishment combat powers had a high chance of winning against a mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator.

If Huo Quan truly reached the late stage of Foundation Establishment after emerging from seclusion.

Even if the four of them were not a match, scattering and fleeing would make the Huo family treat them as a major threat.

In this way, while holding Huo Hu as a bargaining chip, they could be considered to have the foundation of strength to negotiate with the Huo family!

At this time.

The Luo Tian Society had already finished cleaning the battlefield; under the blazing firelight, all corpses were reduced to ashes.

"Let's go, travel through the night, we must leave Gaoling Plain quickly!"

Luo Chen said, taking on the role of issuing orders without hesitation.

Li Yixian and the Nangong family did not refuse.

In this battle, the pressure faced by the Luo Tian Society was the greatest.

Three Foundation Establishment cultivators, thousands of Dajiang Gang cultivators, and a grand formation waiting for them.

Under such extremely unfavorable circumstances, Luo Chen had still led his people to carve out a clear path.

He had the qualifications to be the leader of the three parties.

However.

"I have a request."

Li Yixian looked at the two of them with an almost pleading gaze.

"Can you clear out a little space on your flying boats..."

Nangong Jin frowned.

Luo Chen looked behind her at the Li family's mortal martial artists who had only just arrived in a rush.

Each of them sat on tall dragon-horses, their expressions exhausted.

The Li family had lived and multiplied in Dahe Workshop for many years, and had not experienced many wars.

Therefore, they had produced many mortals without spiritual roots.

When leaving Dahe Workshop, Li Yixian had gritted her teeth and brought most of them along.

In reality, the Nangong family was the same.

They thought very simply: leave Dahe Workshop, find a piece of spiritual land to settle down.

Bringing mortals along would be useful in many places.

Unexpectedly, it would develop to this point.

Now.

The Nangong family's mortals had all died in the battle against the Bai family of Liuguang Workshop.

Although sorrowful, they were traveling light on the escape route ahead.

On the contrary, the Li family.

Having not experienced a major battle, the number of clansmen was preserved intact.

This should have been a good thing, but now, because of the large number of people, it was unfavorable for rapid travel.

"Clear out some space to load the mortals; the Li family cultivators should focus on flying with magic tools."

"I am willing to pay a sum of spirit stones!"

Nangong Jin opened his mouth, but Luo Chen spoke first: "Spirit stones are unnecessary; it is not impossible to bring them along. But..."

Sweeping his gaze over those mortals, Luo Chen said coldly, "Once you reach a safe area, you must leave them all behind; otherwise, going to Tianlan Immortal City will only make them a burden!"

Li Yixian thought for a moment and nodded readily.

Seeing this, Nangong Jin said nothing more.

Now that both the Luo Tian Society and the Nangong family had lost many people, the space on the flying boats had indeed opened up a lot.

Mortals, after all!

No need for any conditions; just squeeze them in, and they could all be brought along.

Before long.

With the help of cultivators, the Li family's mortals were all sent onto the flying boats.

The remaining hundred or so dragon-horses were also packed into the Li family's spirit beast bags.

Only then did Li Yixian finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Waving her hand, the flying boat slowly flew into the sky.

On the Nangong family's flying boat.

Nangong Jin hunched his back, leaning on a cane.

He looked toward the direction of Liuguang Workshop, as if he could see that massive Youbai tree.

Gritting his teeth, swallowing blood.

"Remember this humiliation!"

"One day, my Nangong family must kill our way back and wash Mount Youbai in blood!"

"If I cannot succeed, Qin'er, you do it. If you cannot succeed, pass it to the descendants; it must never be forgotten!"

Behind him, the dozen or so Nangong family cultivators felt intense hatred erupt in their eyes and responded heavily.

In the wheelchair, the pale-faced Nangong Qin had a ferocious expression:

"This hatred is endless!"

"The Bai family, I will surely destroy them!"

And on that massive flying boat at the very front.

Luo Chen stood at the bow.

Sima Huiniang and Murong Qinglian stood behind him.

The night wind blew, but it could not blow away the anger in his heart.

Lowering his head.

Looking at the Gaoling Plain where the fire was spreading, stone pillars lay scattered on the ground, and corpses were turning to ashes in the fire.

And even more, the life of a friend had remained in this place forever.

Luo Chen closed his eyes.

"I do not offend others, yet others offend me."

"In this world, it is truly the law of the jungle; there is no room for the slightest bit of luck!"

Suddenly, he opened his eyes and looked back at the path they had come from.

Ten *li*, a hundred *li*, a thousand *li*...

It was as if he were looking at Mount Chichan, where toads croaked everywhere.

"Huo family!"

"A nine-generation feud can still be avenged!"

"I will return!"

Night owls wailed, cold winds howled.

All the dust and fire were left behind as the flying boat sped away.

"Dan Chenzi!"

"To actually dare to use the Yu family to threaten me, I will remember you!"

On the Emerald Feather White Eagle.

The palace-dressed young woman had a gloomy expression, her anger unable to stop rising.

But the fear in her heart had seeped into her marrow.

She was truly afraid!

At that moment, the coldness in Luo Chen's words was not fake.

Carrying the prestige of slaying two great Foundation Establishment cultivators, Tu Shan and Wang Haichao, at that moment, Luo Chen had the confidence to say such things.

She could not refute him at all.

Therefore, her heart was filled with coldness, and she could only rely on angry cursing to vent the fear in her heart.

After cursing for a while, she thought of Li Yixian.

She wanted to curse this bitch for actually helping Luo Chen.

But she thought of the scene where she had threatened Li Yixian with the Li family earlier.

"It is truly the cycle of heaven; retribution is swift!"

She gave a bitter smile.

Controlling the spirit beast beneath her feet, she flew toward Taishan Workshop.

In her heart, she was still thinking about how to deal with Huo Quan after he emerged from seclusion.

According to Luo Chen's threat, the details of the Battle of Gaoling Plain certainly could not be mentioned.

"Wang Yuan's combat power, the betrayal of that formation master..."

"Since that's the case, let's point all the blame at Luo Chen!"

"Since you want to act big, you must be prepared to face the wrath of a great Foundation Establishment cultivator!"

"Oh no, that bitch Li Yixian also has responsibility. If it weren't for her fighting with all her might and battling me for hundreds of rounds, I would have already saved Huo Hu."

"Yes, that's it!"

With thoughts turning a hundred times in her heart, she had already thought of all the excuses.

She wanted to dump all the blame on Luo Chen and Li Yixian.

At the same time, she would extract herself as much as possible.

"Should I inflict some injuries on myself?"

Sometimes, a bitter-meat scheme is the most convincing.

She hesitated for a moment, and the Emerald Feather White Eagle also stopped.

"Hmm?"

"Why did the white eagle stop too?"

Just as she was puzzled, a massive aura slowly emerged.

Her eyes widened as she looked at the endlessly surging Lancang River.

A massive toad slowly stretched its body from the river.

Its blue-green body was over ten *zhang* tall.

The bumps on its back were filled with unimaginably potent poison.

Its sharp claws were incomparably cold, yet it only had three legs.

Wherever it passed, the large magic tool ships docked at the pier shattered like tofu.

Yu Rou trembled all over, muttering in her mouth:

"Three-Legged Heaven-Swallowing Toad!"

"This is that Heaven-Swallowing Toad from back then; it actually advanced to the mid-third stage."

"No, what is it trying to do!"

In Yu Rou's line of sight, the direction the Three-Legged Heaven-Swallowing Toad was heading was clearly the Taishan Workshop, which was close at hand.

Suddenly, its body stopped.

It raised its head and looked far toward Mount Chichan, its eyes blood-red.

It was as if something there was emitting a deadly scent, attracting it.

"Croak!"

After a muffled croak, it took a deep breath, and its abdomen swelled several times over.

Afterward, its three legs braced against the ground, and it kicked off with force.

Its massive body, like a spring, rose from the ground and soared into the high sky.

The river water it brought up fell like a torrential downpour.

After reaching a critical point, it fell diagonally.

The location it fell toward was clearly the quiet Mount Chichan in the night.

At the same time.

Someone within Mount Chichan seemed to sense something.

Regardless of everything, they forcibly broke out of seclusion.

A white ruler flew out, its size constantly expanding, instantly turning into a hundred *zhang* in size.

This was a sign that they had tried their best and driven it to the limit.

However, the seemingly massive magic treasure.

Was casually swatted by the Three-Legged Heaven-Swallowing Toad, its hundred-foot spiritual light dimming as it flew backward.

"No!!!"

An aged, miserable wail rang out.

The Three-Legged Heaven-Swallowing Toad had already crashed into the mountain.

*Boom!

A massive sound rang out.

Then, as if triggering some chain reaction.

A massive amount of heaven and earth spiritual energy poured out like a dam bursting.

Even more, a pillar of fire erupted from the top of Mount Chichan.

*Boom!

The volcano erupted!

Countless pillars of fire shot straight into the clouds.

Magma wound its way down, and pavilions, towers, giant trees, and flowers were all reduced to ashes.

Outside Taishan Workshop.

Yu Rou's beautiful face was dazed, her small mouth wide open, her eyes filled with disbelief.

Mount Chichan was destroyed!
