826. Chapter 824 Escape of the Flying Shuttle

Su Liyan looked at Lu Yuan's determined eyes, knowing his inner resolve and sense of responsibility.

She lightly patted Lu Yuan's shoulder, signaling him not to worry too much, because fighting side by side, they would surely overcome any difficulty.

When they returned to the Pill Research Institute, many cultivators had already gathered in the institute, discussing the threat of the Red Lotus Sect and Zi Xi'er's safety.

A flicker of anxiety crossed Lu Yuan's face; he immediately sought out Hong Lietian, hoping to gain some clues and assistance.

Hong Lietian told Lu Yuan with a grave expression, the Red Lotus Sect's power is immense, their intentions must not be underestimated, and we must respond cautiously.

He decided to cooperate with Lu Yuan, joining forces to counter the Red Lotus Sect's threat and protect the safety of Zi Xi'er and Zi Cui Ling.

Lu Yuan nodded gratefully, knowing that Hong Lietian's strength and wisdom would be vital support for them to defeat the enemy.

He resolved to quickly devise a plan of action, go rescue Zi Cui Ling, and not let her suffer any harm.

At the same time, Zi Xi'er was imprisoned, facing the Red Lotus Sect's experts.

The Red Lotus Sect leader gazed at her with a sinister expression, curling the corner of his mouth into a cold smile.

Zi Xi'er remained composed, knowing she must stay strong and not show any weakness to the enemy.

The Red Lotus Sect's experts began to cast a special spell, attempting to probe Zi Xi'er's heart for secrets.

Zi Xi'er exerted all her strength to resist, unwilling to reveal even a hint of the Ziyun Clan's secrets.

She silently recited Lu Yuan's name in her heart, hoping he would arrive soon to rescue her.

The Red Lotus Sect followers watching from the sidelines mocked Zi Xi'er's helplessness, believing there was no way she could easily escape this time.

Hong Lietian led Lu Yuan and Su Liyan into a hidden chamber, set up formations to prevent detection, and began discussing countermeasures.

Hong Lietian revealed that the Red Lotus Sect's influence had already permeated everywhere; they must act cautiously and not reveal themselves.

Lu Yuan felt anxious in his heart; he resolved to rescue Zi Cui Ling and not let his family suffer harm again.

"We must find a way to uncover the Red Lotus Sect's weakness before we can deal with them."

Hong Lietian said.

"But their power is quite great; what should we do?"

Su Liyan asked anxiously.

"We can try to divide their forces, find their internal contradictions, thereby weakening their unity."

Hong Lietian proposed the suggestion.

Lu Yuan pondered silently, feeling that this method might be feasible.

"We must act quickly; time waits for no one."

He said while standing up.

The three agreed on the plan, preparing to set out to rescue Zi Cui Ling.

Just as they were about to depart, a sudden rush of footsteps and fighting sounds came from outside the courtyard.

"What's going on?"

Su Liyan alertly grabbed Lu Yuan's hand.

Hong Lietian furrowed his brow, instantly opened the chamber door, and a figure stumbled in.

That person was none other than Lu Yuan's enemy—Xueying.

"Hong Lietian, what are you hiding here for?"

Xueying demanded angrily.

"Are you here to seek death?"

Lu Yuan firmly gripped his Heavenly Gang Thunder Fire Sword, his eyes flashing with fighting spirit.

Xueying sneered, "Lu Yuan, do you think hiding here can let you escape the Blood Moon Sect's pursuit?"

"Today, you will surely die!"

As Xueying's words fell, a group of Blood Moon Sect cultivators surged into the chamber, surrounding the three.

Among them were Void Refinement and Spirit Transformation experts, their aura fierce, seemingly intent on suppressing Lu Yuan and the others here.

"Hong Lietian, run quickly! I'll hold them off!"

Lu Yuan shouted loudly, stepping in front of Su Liyan and Hong Lietian.

Su Liyan looked at Lu Yuan, a flicker of worry and determination crossing her eyes.

"Lu Yuan, let's fight together!"

She raised the Ice Crystal Long Whip without hesitation, ready to battle the Blood Moon Sect cultivators.

Hong Lietian calmly observed the situation, knowing it was time to unleash his power.

He loudly chanted the incantation; a Necromancy spell instantly released, temporarily imprisoning part of the enemy.

The battle was about to erupt; the chamber filled with immortal energy and a bloody scent.

Lu Yuan brandished the thunder-fire sword, turning it into a stream of light as he clashed with the Blood Moon Sect cultivators; sword qi crisscrossed, its power astonishing.

Su Liyan employed ice immortal arts; the Ice Crystal Long Whip turned into flashing cold light, freezing the enemies' attacks and buying time for Lu Yuan.

Hong Lietian, meanwhile, performed Necromancy on the side, firmly controlling those enemies that had been imprisoned, creating opportunities for Lu Yuan and Su Liyan.

The battle was extraordinarily fierce; each clash was a life‑or‑death struggle.

Lu Yuan felt his spiritual power flowing endlessly; he fought resolutely, not allowing any enemy to approach Su Liyan and Hong Lietian.

Lu Yuan tightly gripped his Heavenly Gang Thunder Fire Sword; facing the Blood Moon Sect's encirclement, his heart remained calm and composed.

He knew this was not the time for reckless fighting; he must find an opportunity to break free.

"Su Liyan, we must find a way to break out."

Lu Yuan whispered to Su Liyan beside him.

Su Liyan nodded, the Ice Crystal Long Whip swaying lightly in her hand, ready to seek an opening.

She and Lu Yuan worked in tacit harmony, always ready to respond to the enemy's attacks.

Seeing this, Hong Lietian quickly thought of a countermeasure.

He knew his necromancy was not advantageous here and had to come up with another plan.

"Su Liyan, you seal their left side; I'll cover the right."

Hong Lietian proposed.

Su Liyan nodded in agreement, using ice-based immortal arts to trap the enemies on one side in ice, creating a temporary opening for Hong Lietian.

Hong Lietian seized the opportunity, swiftly casting a soul-confusion technique that caused part of the enemies to fall into hallucination, losing control of the situation.

Lu Yuan seized the moment, brandished the Heavenly Gang Thunder Fire Sword, employed the Five Elements Escape Technique, a streak of light flashed, and successfully created a breach.

"Hurry, follow me!"

Lu Yuan hastily grabbed Su Liyan's hand and rushed toward the breach.

The Blood Moon Sect cultivators, shocked, immediately noticed Lu Yuan and company's escape intent and all gave chase.

They dared not let the three escape again; they had to capture them and bring them to justice.

In the intense pursuit, Lu Yuan suddenly recalled the flying shuttle he had obtained at the auction.

He decided to use this opportunity to completely shake off the pursuit.

"Su Liyan, let's go quickly!"

Lu Yuan brought Su Liyan to the flying shuttle.

The flying shuttle's mechanism was complex, but Lu Yuan was mentally prepared.

He skillfully operated it, activating the flight device.

The flying shuttle emitted a low rumble, instantly rose into the air, and sped off into the distance.

Lu Yuan and Su Liyan swiftly escaped the Blood Moon Sect's pursuit, the footsteps behind them growing fainter.

They piloted the flying shuttle toward Southern Continent Valley, intending to find the Harmony Joy Sect's cultivators.

The flying shuttle steadily landed on a clearing in Southern Continent Valley; Lu Yuan opened the hatch, and Su Liyan followed closely, jumping down. (End of chapter)
