Chapter 152: You've Been Tricked by Jiang Xun!

"Heh, you really are handing me a pillow just as I get sleepy," Jiang Xun thought to himself as he took the Token.

"Even if I get past your Mountain Protection Array, I still can't get past the Formation set up by the Tianwu Sect," Jiang Xun said, though he still accepted the Token.

"That is true; I tried to send a message just now and it wouldn't go through," Jiang Yan nodded, her expression grave. "I didn't expect the Tianwu Sect to suddenly attack; it seems you've been implicated in this."

"Not at all. Since I'm already here, perhaps it's fate; I will try to help you all," Jiang Xun said with a helpless smile.

"Then I truly trouble you, Young Master," Jiang Yan nodded and began to descend, with Jiang Xun immediately following behind.

This was a cave. After following her inside, there were many disciples guarding the interior. The entire path downward was filled with barriers that needed to be opened one by one.

Upon reaching a depth of about twenty meters, they saw a water prison where Tu Wan was trapped inside a water sphere over two meters high.

Seeing Jiang Xun follow Jiang Yan inside, Tu Wan immediately stood up, slapped the water sphere, and said something.

"Don't expose my identity, you silly girl!"

Jiang Xun hurriedly transmitted his voice to Tu Wan.

Upon hearing this, Tu Wan was slightly stunned, but then she finally reacted.

Jiang Yan, whose heart was set on the battle outside, did not notice Jiang Xun's behavior. She released Tu Wan, tied her up with a rope, and flew outward.

"Let me go! What are you doing! Where are you taking me!"

Tu Wan struggled in Jiang Yan's grasp and shouted.

Jiang Yan had no mind to pay her any heed.

"Sect Leader Jiang, listen to me, let me borrow Tu Wan," Jiang Xun caught up to Jiang Yan. As the two flew out of the cave, Jiang Xun stopped Jiang Yan and said.

"Go to the back mountain?" Jiang Yan stopped and asked, puzzled.

"Looking at Tu Qingtian's reaction, it's obvious he has no intention of saving Tu Wan, but his subordinates surely don't know his plans. I will take her to the back mountain, hold her hostage to get her out of the Tianwu Sect's Formation, and then notify the other sects."

Jiang Xun said with a serious face.

"But my Master..." Jiang Yan felt it seemed feasible, but feared that Lin Tianbai would not be able to hold on.

"I will take Tu Wan and go immediately after I send the message. It won't take long; can you not hold on for at most half a stick of incense's time?"

Jiang Xun said with an anxious face.

"Hurry up, there's no time to hesitate. Can the Baiyun Sect really defeat the Tianwu Sect on its own?"

"... Alright!" Jiang Yan gritted her teeth. "I trust you, you must be quick!"

"Rest assured." Jiang Xun nodded, then grabbed Tu Wan and flew directly toward the back mountain.

"What's the situation, what exactly is going on? Did my father come?" After getting far away from Jiang Yan, Tu Wan hurriedly asked while in Jiang Xun's arms.

"Your father came to destroy the Baiyun Sect, not to save you. He said just now that it wouldn't matter if you were killed," Jiang Xun said.

"Ah? No way..." Tu Wan couldn't help but feel a bit dejected upon hearing this.

"You silly girl, a great battle is imminent, why are you running around? And you even got caught."

Jiang Xun looked at Tu Wan speechlessly and said.

"It's all your fault! You said you wanted to trade the Soul Returning Pill for information on the Wushang Pavilion. I thought I'd pick up the Soul Returning Pill while I was at it, so I wanted to go to the Lingerie-Sect to find you. As a result, there were so many sect disciples in Yunyin City! It scared me to death!"

Tu Wan was furious when she said this.

"I actually forgot to ask about the Wushang Pavilion." Hearing about the Wushang Pavilion, Jiang Xun remembered that back at the Wangyue Pavilion, his mind had been entirely on Jun Tianling and the others, and he had forgotten all about the Wushang Pavilion.

"What did you say?" Tu Wan asked, confused.

"Nothing." Jiang Xun shook his head. "In a moment, I'll take you out through the back mountain. You tell them to let us pass, and we'll leave quickly."

"I'm not leaving, I want revenge! I must beat that Baiyun Sect disciple who captured me until she's covered in blood!" Tu Wan said resentfully.

"..." Jiang Xun was helpless upon hearing this, but with Tu Nan and the others there, Tu Wan shouldn't run into any more trouble now.

"Help me undo my acupoints; my Spirit Power has been sealed," Tu Wan then looked at Jiang Xun and said.

Jiang Xun nodded and helped Tu Wan undo her acupoints. "I still have to keep you tied up until we leave the Baiyun Sect. Aren't you going to thank me for taking such a big risk to save you?"

"Thank you!" Tu Wan didn't hesitate at all and immediately thanked him, her expression extremely sincere.

In truth, Jiang Xun was just going with the flow this time. He had originally just wanted to come and see the situation, but who knew the Tianwu Sect would attack? If he didn't use Tu Wan to get out, Jiang Xun feared he would be the one to suffer.

So he simply pushed the boat with the current; on one hand, he rescued Tu Wan, and on the other, he preserved his own life.

As for Jiang Yan, whom he had tricked.

At worst, he could just use the Soul Returning Pill to save her after she died.

By then, there would be no proof, and Jiang Xun would just say that after he took Tu Wan out, he was intercepted by experts from the Tianwu Sect and nearly died, which was why he couldn't bring Tu Wan back.

Arriving at the back mountain of the Baiyun Sect, Jiang Xun took out Jiang Yan's Token and got out very smoothly.

At the same time, Jiang Yan had already returned to Lin Tianbai's side.

"Where is Tu Wan?"

Tu Qingtian was still attacking the Formation, and Tu Nan and Tu Mo had also joined in, wanting to break the Formation before Tu Wan arrived.

But after all, this was the Baiyun Sect's territory; they really couldn't break this Formation for a while.

"Jiang Xun took her away, he wanted to..." Jiang Yan explained the situation.

"You are a fool!" Lin Tianbai stared at Jiang Yan with wide eyes upon hearing this. "That Jiang Xun came wanting to see Tu Wan, and the Tianwu Sect arrived right after! In this situation, Jiang Xun's intention was to take Tu Wan away while you were in a state of chaos."

"You fell for the Tianwu Sect and Jiang Xun's trap! They are in cahoots!"

Lin Tianbai looked at Jiang Yan with a look of disappointment and shouted.

Jiang Yan's head was buzzing instantly.

Recalling the situation just now... she really seemed to have been deceived!

"The Baiyun Sect is finished this time." Lin Tianbai sighed, feeling a tightness in his chest so severe he nearly spat out a mouthful of blood.

"I... I'm sorry, Master!" Jiang Yan's eyes were slightly red as she looked at Lin Tianbai.

It was hard enough for her old Master to have to come out to guard the mountain gate, and she had even tricked her Master.

Jiang Xun! This brat is too detestable!

She now deeply regretted handing Qin Miaoyin over to Jiang Xun.

Bang!

Just as Lin Tianbai was distracted, Tu Qingtian activated his Dharma Image, and a massive Dharma Image, blood-red all over and appearing like a descending demon god, smashed a fist onto the Mountain Protection Array.

The barrier of the Mountain Protection Array shattered instantly with a bang, like glass.

"Kill!" Tu Mo shouted loudly, a colossal double-headed long-handled axe appearing in his hands, and clad in heavy armor, he charged into the crowd of Baiyun Sect disciples like a god of slaughter.

With one horizontal sweep of the axe, over a hundred Baiyun Sect disciples were sent flying, blood sprayed in the air, and the ground was stained red.

The Tianwu Sect disciples followed behind Tu Mo and charged in together.

The Baiyun Sect disciples immediately rushed forward to engage in battle.

For a time, the surroundings were filled with shouts of killing and painful wails.
