Shang Xie Zhuo did not get angry, but chuckled and said, "Island Master Duan, have you finally dealt with those Mo Yao?"
"So Sect Leader Shang Xie knew from the start that they were Mo Yao?"
Duan Jinghong frowned and said gloomily, "Why didn't you tell me earlier? It seems you all knew? You all kept it from us, letting our Penglai Island go through life and death battles with these monsters. Isn't that too despicable!"
Shang Xie Shao Qing was displeased upon hearing this and snorted, "Island Master Duan, how dare you say that about us? It was you who wanted to snatch the Ten Thousand Year Zhu Guo, and that's why you rushed ahead and encountered the Mo Yao. Now that so many people have died, you're blaming us."
"Insolent! I am speaking to your father, do you have the right to interrupt?"
Duan Jinghong was very displeased. He put on a stern face and said to Shang Xie Zhuo, "Sect Leader Shang Xie, your son needs proper discipline. Otherwise, people might think Sect Leader Shang Xie doesn't know how to raise his son, and that would be bad."
"How can you speak..."
Seeing that Shang Xie Shao Qing was about to get angry, Shang Xie Zhuo pulled him back, shook his head as a signal, and said calmly, "I have noted what Island Master Duan said. Thank you."
Duan Jinghong nodded, very satisfied with Shang Xie Zhuo's attitude. But after speaking, he looked and saw that the large pile of Ten Thousand Year Zhu Guo had already been divided and collected. They were neither distributed to them nor were other intelligence shared. Their Penglai Island had gained nothing.
Shang Xie Zhuo, that old fox, had deliberately delayed the time!
Duan Jinghong cursed him thoroughly in his heart, but there was nothing he could do. The remaining Ten Thousand Year Zhu Guo were only a few unripe fruits. He quickly ordered them to be dug up with their roots and taken back for cultivation, which was better than nothing.
In the team, the people from Penglai Island suffered the most losses, and even the Young Island Master Duan Shu was seriously injured and needed immediate treatment.
Su Luo and the others did not linger, continuing to advance up the mountain.
"Luoluo, aren't you going to rest for a bit?" Shang Xie Shao Qing chased after her and asked solicitously.
"No, we need to leave here as soon as possible, otherwise the smell of blood might attract more Mo Yao." Su Luo shook her head, glanced at the Penglai Island group who were resting and taking medicine, and urged everyone to quicken their pace.
Wen Daier also understood Su Luo's meaning and whispered a few words to Madam Yao Guang.
The next moment, not only the people from the Six Desires Sect, but also the people from the Longevity Hall, all followed behind Li Tianjue and Su Luo and others, continuing their advance up the mountain. Duan Jinghong spat fiercely.
Damn it, they just ran off and left them behind, eager to find the method to become gods?
Duan Jinghong suddenly realized, it must be like this!
The people from Qingxu Heaven must know where Bai Yanshu is, which is why the Six Desires Sect and the Longevity Hall followed them. How could he have overlooked this?
"Quick, hurry up and follow..." Duan Jinghong immediately ordered the start.
"Father, my chest hurts so much, can we rest for a while longer?" Duan Shu said with a bitter face. His wound had just been bandaged, and even after taking the pill, it still hurt. It would take at least a few days to fully recover.
Just as Duan Jinghong was about to say that they couldn't rest and must catch up quickly, a chilling strange cry suddenly came from the dense forest.
The trees swayed, the grass rustled in the wind, and a腥风 blew.
Duan Jinghong's face changed, and he blurted out, "Not good, those Mo Yao are back!"
As expected, Mo Yao with long arms and legs, and claws like sharp blades, appeared again, clearly attracted by the blood. They were tall, and with a single leap, they could cover several zhang. Climbing trees made them even faster, and they lunged towards the Penglai Island group.
Listening to the exclamations and sounds of fighting behind him, Su Luo glanced back from afar and immediately urged, "The Mo Yao are back again, and there are quite a few of them. Everyone, quicken your pace and get over this mountain as soon as possible."
The Four Directions Mountain Range was a gathering place for Mo Yao. As long as they didn't leave here, Mo Yao would appear incessantly.
Everyone immediately increased their speed, constantly moving up the mountain.
Chu Tianshu, Lu Jixing, and others were fine, their cultivation was good, and their movements were agile and swift. However, after running for a while, Bai Qi started to pant.
Su Luo, pulling Tang Xiaoguo, turned back and shouted, "Fifth Senior Brother, let Da Hei carry you, hurry up and leave."
The Dragon Dog leaped and jumped in front of Bai Qi, "Get on."
Bai Qi hesitated for a moment, then climbed onto its back, hugged the Dragon Dog's neck tightly, and said gratefully, "Thank you, Senior Dragon Dog."
The Dragon Dog soared, as if riding on clouds and mist, and said, "You people are too polite, there's no fun at all. Su Yatou is much better, unlike you with so many rules, so fussy."
This was why it liked Su Luo; being with this girl was carefree and exhilarating!
Bai Qi felt a bit embarrassed and didn't know what to say, so he could only hold onto the Dragon Dog tightly, letting it carry him at full speed.
Roars, however, were getting closer and closer.
Li Tianjue looked back, and more than a dozen Mo Yao had already caught up. They used both their hands and feet, like flying apes. Their sharp claws waved incessantly, and even stones could not block them, leaving streaks as they were scratched.
Not only that, but it seemed that Mo Yao from the nearby dense forest also heard the commotion and were surrounding them.
At this speed, they would be surrounded in a short time.
Exclamations came from behind, someone was injured. Shang Xie Zhuo, with his calm demeanor, moved like flowing clouds and water. He looked back and said, "Son, you and everyone else hurry up and go. Elders, you will stay with me to block them."
His robes fluttered in the wind. He struck out with a palm towards the rear, and a huge phantom shot out like a cannonball. A Mo Yao that had just jumped down from a tree was sent flying backward, falling heavily to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood and twitching all over.
Several elders from the Longevity Hall also stopped, attacking the pursuing Mo Yao from all directions.
Seeing this, Madam Yao Guang also stopped, suspended in mid-air. She threw her sleeves, elegantly rolling up a Mo Yao that was about to sneak attack, and smashed it heavily onto the ground, breaking all its bones.
Chu Tianshu looked back. It was a close call; he had almost been scratched on the shoulder by that Mo Yao.
He didn't expect Madam Yao Guang to save him.
"Thank you, Madam, for saving me," he said gratefully.
However, Madam Yao Guang didn't even look at Chu Tianshu, maintaining her cold and frosty demeanor. She said faintly, "Daier, you take a few junior sisters and leave first. I'll stay to kill a few Mo Yao before I go."
Wen Daier was worried. Seeing more and more Mo Yao emerging from the dense forest, surging in like a tide, she shouted, "Mother, there are too many Mo Yao, we can't kill them all. Let's leave quickly."
"Go!" Madam Yao Guang said coldly, and then began fighting the Mo Yao.
The Mo Yao, over a zhang tall, were no match for her. Madam Yao Guang held a pipa, lightly plucking the strings. The sound was as melodious as heavenly music, but the Mo Yao covered their heads and screamed, falling to the ground and rolling incessantly, blood seeping from their noses and mouths.
Indeed, she was powerful, worthy of being the Sect Leader of the Six Desires Sect!
Chu Tianshu watched with a pounding heart, then suddenly realized. He grabbed Wen Daier and ran, "Don't delay any longer. Madam is very powerful and will be fine. If we stay, we'll only be a burden to her."
