Chapter 2786

Tian Wu and the others had been waiting for Tianzhu Xuanwu for a long time, but he never arrived.

"Weng Zi, I have a bad feeling—I sense people coming from all directions, all targeting the Chaos Bagua Tower in our hands. What do we do?"

"What else can we do? Defend him with our lives!"

Weng Zi knew that if this truly was about the Chaos Bagua Tower, they were now doomed.

But once Tianzhu Xuanwu arrived, they could rest easy—it was precisely his absence now, while everyone else arrived, that terrified them, for the creatures of Honghuang were also extremely powerful.

They did not wish to offend the creatures of Honghuang, yet they refused to cower.

"When soldiers come, send generals; when water comes, pile up earth. If all else fails, we seek help from Luo Fu Shengren—have Luo Fu Shengren lend us a hand!"

"How can we possibly ask Luo Fu Shengren for help?" Weng Zi's face flushed red.

Luo Fu Shengren had helped them so much already; if they asked him again now, they would surely invite gossip.

"Staying alive is what matters most!"

"Exactly!"

Weng Zi had no other choice—they could only survive and escape to preserve the Chaos Bagua Tower, and they had already felt it clearly: people were indeed coming from all directions.

Even Tianzhu Xuanwu sensed that strange disturbance, and he could no longer delay his departure from Zhenyao Mountain.

Tianzhu Xuanwu never imagined that merely leaving Penglai Immortal Island for a while would cause such a crisis—and that someone had breached Penglai Immortal Island without his knowledge.

Since a problem had truly arisen, it must be resolved immediately—before it spreads further.

"Bai Ze, I'm done talking to you!"

"I have more important matters to attend to now. I don't want any association with you."

Since Tianzhu Xuanwu dared to say it, he was now willing to act on it.

Bai Ze was curious, yet astonished—had they already learned of the Penglai Immortal Island incident?

"Where are you going?"

"Don't ask where I'm going. You're blocking me here now, aren't you, just to force me to help? But I can't help you now—find someone else."

"You..."

Bai Ze asked, "What I mean is, if you need help, you can come to me."

"You're from the demon clans—I don't trust demon-clan people at all!"

With that, Tianzhu Xuanwu left on his own.

Zhu Yan and Teng She watched them from the side, knowing something major had happened—but neither knew exactly what.

Moreover, they had all witnessed the state of Zhenyao Mountain: without the Heaven-Earth-Xuan-Huang Linglong Treasure Tower, none of them could possibly leave this place!

"Zhu Yan, what do you think their intentions are?"

"No matter what their intentions are, we just need to focus on our own mission!"

If they could lure Tianzhu Xuanwu to Zhenyao Mountain once, they could lure him again. Hun Dun held the same thought—Tao Tie had not yet recovered and could only rest.

It must be that Honghuang has undergone a massive transformation, causing Tianzhu Xuanwu to act so urgently.

But what massive transformation had occurred in Honghuang?

"Send someone to investigate—find out what's really going on!" said Teng She.

Ying Long departed immediately; if he found anything, they would surely follow—and now Ying Long's thoughts differed from the others'.

That's why they were chosen, and now even more so—so long as the right opportunity arises!
