322. Chapter 322: The Cunning Shui Juanyun

"Boom!"

A loud noise suddenly came from behind, the entire ground was shaking frantically, and Long Xuan was startled.

What on earth were they doing, making such a huge commotion? Anyone who wasn't deaf could hear such a huge commotion, right?

Unsurprisingly, under this earth-shaking loud noise, all the Teng Clan Gu cultivators were alarmed, and the Teng Clan was in chaos.

That hidden Great Gu King also moved upon hearing the sound, and a powerful soul force instantly enveloped the Teng Clan.

Immediately after, this Gu King flew up and quickly flew out of Green Mountain City.

Seeing the departing figure of that Gu King, Long Xuan was thoughtful.

Just now, he had sensed a spatial fluctuation; it seemed like someone had teleported away from the secret chamber using a Hundred Li Talisman.

No, this was definitely not a Hundred Li Talisman; it might be a replica of a Hundred Li Talisman, or it might be something similar to a Hundred Li Talisman.

Long Xuan's expression became strange; could the commotion just now have been created by this person?

After all, anyone still here, as long as they weren't stupid, wouldn't use such a loud attack method; only the person who had just left would have no scruples.

In this way, this person was truly spiteful, leaving even after he had already escaped to screw over the people behind.

However, he harmed others and himself; he could have left safely, but he had to do unnecessary things, resulting in alarming the Teng Clan's Gu King.

That replica Hundred Li Talisman of his probably had a limited transmission distance and couldn't escape the Gu King's perception range at all.

The reason that Teng Clan Gu King ran out of the city just now was most likely to chase him.

After all, after such an incident, the Teng Clan's Gu King would definitely go after the one who ran the fastest first; the ones who hadn't managed to run yet could be handled by the rest of the family.

How could that insidious little villain outrun a Gu King? He should pray for his own luck now.

Long Xuan silently mourned for him in his heart and hurriedly walked in the opposite direction of the Teng Clan Gu King.

A sudden earth-shaking explosion occurred in the Teng Clan, and everyone at the banquet was stunned. They stopped their chopsticks together and looked toward the direction the sound came from.

The Teng Clan Head looked toward the direction of the explosion, and his face immediately turned pale, his body somewhat tottering.

"Oh no! Something happened to the Earth Spirit Tree! Everyone, hurry to support!"

How could the Teng Clan Head still care about entertaining that distinguished guest from the Zhu Clan? He hurriedly took all the Zhu Clan Gu cultivators and ran toward the direction of the explosion.

The guests at the banquet all had the intention of watching the excitement, and one after another, they put down their chopsticks and followed.

Many guests at this time showed schadenfreude; there was such a huge fire there, and the Earth Spirit Tree that the Teng Clan was proud of had undoubtedly been destroyed. Many people who couldn't stand to see others doing well felt great.

At this time, the crowd of Gu cultivators in the secret chamber had all lost their wits.

Looking at the Earth Spirit Tree that had been completely burned to ashes by the flames, everyone's faces turned ugly.

"What on earth is he doing! What good does doing this do for him!"

"We're in big trouble now, everyone, break out immediately, run as many as can!"

The leading old man roared angrily, no longer caring about chasing Shui Juanyun, and ran frantically toward the outside.

The others also turned pale, running toward the outside in a panic. Many people already showed despair in their eyes; everyone understood that at this time, it wasn't a matter of them wanting to rush out and being able to.

After the crowd of Gu cultivators quickly rushed out of the secret chamber, they tacitly split into various directions and began to scatter and flee. How many could run out today could only be left to fate.

The Teng Clan Head led the crowd of clansmen and followed closely behind to arrive here.

Seeing that the secret chamber hiding the Earth Spirit Tree had collapsed, and there was a sea of fire in the pit, the Earth Spirit Tree obviously couldn't live anymore, the Teng Clan Head's eyes were splitting, and his vision went black, about to faint.

His body staggered back a few steps, and only with the support of the clansmen behind him did he not fall. He pointed his trembling finger at the fleeing crowd and roared angrily: "Kill them for me, leave not one, don't let one go!"

The crowd of Teng Clan Gu cultivators had red eyes; without waiting for the Head's order, they had already rushed up like madmen.

The Earth Spirit Tree was the holy tree in their clan, concerning their clan's luck.

Once the holy tree was destroyed, the number of Spirit Sea Stage Gu cultivators in the Teng Clan in the future would inevitably decrease significantly, and with fewer Spirit Sea Stage Gu cultivators, the probability of a Gu King appearing would naturally decrease significantly.

Over time, the Teng Clan's strength would inevitably weaken slowly, and they might even fall out of the position of the five great clans of Green Mountain City. How could all the Teng Clan Gu cultivators not be angry?

This was cutting off their roots, cutting off their clan's luck; they wished they could tear this group of little thieves into ten thousand pieces.

A large number of Teng Clan Gu cultivators went one after another to chase and kill the old Gu cultivators who had already run far away.

Those old Gu cultivators who were lucky had a group of Essence Refining Stage Gu cultivators hanging behind them, and those who were unlucky had a Spirit Sea Stage Great Gu cultivator hanging directly behind them.

Those who were unlucky basically had no hope; how could a normal Essence Refining Stage Gu cultivator escape the endless pursuit of a Spirit Sea Stage Gu cultivator?

Of course, there was one who was even unluckier, with a Great Gu King hanging behind him.

In the crowd, a handsome white-faced youth looked at the group of survivors with flickering eyes and suddenly said to Zhu Jiuge beside him:

"Junior Sister! Aren't you about to break through to the Spirit Sea Stage? These thieves must be carrying Earth Spirit Fruits. I'll go grab one for you, consider it a gift from Senior Brother."

Saying this, the youth chose a thief who had no Spirit Sea Stage Gu cultivator chasing him and quickly chased after him.

"Don't!"

Zhu Jiuge just reached out to stop him, but it was already too late; the youth had already run far away.

She really wanted to say that every time she broke through, there was no bottleneck, and she didn't need any breakthrough treasures at all.

But Senior Brother left too hurriedly, and she could only pray that Senior Brother wouldn't have any accidents and could successfully complete the task.

At this time, the leading old man knew that it was impossible to escape the pursuit of the Teng Clan Gu cultivators, so he hardened his heart and actually planned to hijack a hostage to escape.

He subconsciously rushed toward the harmless-looking Zhu Jiuge in the crowd.

From the crowd's discussion earlier, he knew that this little girl came from the Zhu Clan.

Once he hijacked this little girl from the Zhu Clan, the Teng Clan, fearing the Zhu Clan's power, would definitely not dare to act rashly and would only have to obediently let him go.

However, he thought very beautifully, but reality was very skinny.

For some reason, as a Gu cultivator, he actually twisted his foot inexplicably at this time, and in pain, he fell headfirst to the ground.

The Teng Clan Head, who was already furious, immediately caught up to him and angrily stepped on his head, so this leader of the old men's group was the first to send his head.

At this time, on the other side, seeing that the few Spirit Sea Stage Gu cultivators of the Teng Clan had all gone to chase others, Shui Juanyun was overjoyed and hurriedly quickened his pace.

Sure enough, as he expected, the Teng Clan's Spirit Sea Stage Gu cultivators would only chase the one who ran the fastest first; whoever ran the fastest would be the first to be unlucky.

So he was very cunning; clearly, he was the first to run out, so he should have been the fastest.

However, he had been dawdling, letting the group of old men behind him who were not agile overtake him.

Those who ran the fastest were, without exception, all targeted by the Teng Clan's Spirit Sea Stage Gu cultivators.

And it would definitely take a certain amount of time for that group of Spirit Sea Stage Gu cultivators to kill others and then chase him, and this was his opportunity to escape.

Shui Juanyun sneered in his heart; that group of Teng Clan Spirit Sea Stage Gu cultivators were afraid that someone would escape, so they prioritized killing the fastest ones, but how did they know that the fastest one was clearly himself.

Although the Spirit Sea Stage Gu cultivators killed people very quickly and could catch up to him very quickly, the little time he snatched was enough.

Not far in front of the Teng Clan, there was a river; as long as he turned into water and jumped into the river, the water would become his protective color, and even if that group of Spirit Sea Stage Gu cultivators were exhausted to death, they would never catch him again.

Huh? There was actually someone blind chasing him, and the speed was not slower than his.

Shui Juanyun turned his head to the side, looked at the person behind him with his peripheral vision, and his eyes narrowed.

At this time, there were eight Essence Refining Stage Gu cultivators chasing him, but in reality, there was only one.

He was so cunning; before entering the secret chamber, he had already arranged seven clones outside to pick him up at any time.

These seven clones were all wearing the clothes of Teng Clan Essence Refining Stage Gu cultivators, disguised as Teng Clan Essence Refining Stage Gu cultivators.

These arrangements played a huge role.

When he was running away just now, he decisively ordered these seven Teng Clan Essence Refining Stage Gu cultivators to chase and kill himself.

The other Teng Clan Gu cultivators, seeing that seven Essence Refining peak Gu cultivators were already chasing him, unsurprisingly stopped their steps to chase him and turned to chase others.

The plan was perfect; all the Teng Clan Gu cultivators were fooled, he had no pursuers behind him, and he could jump into the river without any obstruction.

However, what he didn't expect was that there was actually an outsider Gu cultivator meddling, chasing him alone; he was truly not knowing whether he was living or dying.

Shui Juanyun showed a ferocious smile, preparing to solve this person who was looking for death first, otherwise, if this person attacked him with long-range attack capabilities from behind, it would eventually be a trouble.

He immediately stopped his steps, turned around, and looked at the person who came.

The handsome white-faced youth behind him saw him stop, so he curled his lips and also stopped.

He was just about to say a few nonsense words, when the seven Teng Clan Essence Refining Stage Gu cultivators beside him actually stabbed a sword at him together.

He was shocked, completely unable to think that the Teng Clan's Gu cultivators would suddenly attack him.

The sneak attack came too suddenly; he had no preparation at all. In his anxiety, he could only use both hands to grab the swords stabbing from left and right. Fresh blood flowed from his palms. At this time, the swords from other directions could no longer be defended.

Five swords successfully pierced his body, and one of the swords even pierced him through the heart from behind.

The vital points were pierced, and his vitality began to pass away rapidly.

The youth slowly lowered his head, looked at the sword that pierced his heart, and his eyes showed disbelief.

Until now, he couldn't believe why the Teng Clan's Gu cultivators would suddenly attack him.

Until these seven Teng Clan Gu cultivators suddenly turned into Shui Juanyun's appearance and sneered at him together, he finally realized.

It turned out that the ones who came out to chase and kill him were not Teng Clan Gu cultivators at all, but his own clones. Everyone was actually played around by him; he was truly cunning enough.

But obviously, he knew this news too late. Five swords were pulled out of his body, and he fell straight to the ground.

Until he died, his eyes were still wide open, and he died with a grievance.

Until he died, he couldn't think that he would actually die in this place; he died simply wrongly.

After easily solving this person, Shui Juanyun picked up his storage bag and left quickly.

Whether before or after the battle, he didn't say a word of nonsense.

After cleanly and neatly solving the opponent, he left quickly.

Now it was the escape time of life and death speed, and where did he have time to talk nonsense.

He escaped to the riverside at full speed, his body quickly turned into water, flowed into the water, and disappeared.

And until now, the Teng Clan's Gu cultivators had not caught up.

Now even if they caught up, it was useless; who could distinguish which water in the river was turned into by him? Searching for him in the water was no different from finding a needle in the ocean. (End of chapter)
