Chapter 713: Chapter 715: Crisis, Bai Ze (10)
"Good, very good!" Hua Yunxiang sneered twice, "Since you’re so ignorant of the times, don’t blame me for being unkind!"
Boom!
Hua Yunxiang’s entire body transformed into a sword, streaking toward Mu Ruyue, but at that moment, a heaven-shaking noise erupted from the mountains, causing his body to halt abruptly in midair, his eyes widening in shock as he looked down...
What he saw scared him silly.
In the valley, a powerful and colossal Demon Beast had appeared at some point, its eyes fierce and ruthless. Drool fell from its mouth, spreading a disgusting stench.
"The Eight-clawed Fire Chi! It’s the Fierce Beast, the Eight-clawed Fire Chi!"
The Demon Beast had eight claws; what else could it be but the Eight-clawed Fire Chi? But why was the Eight-clawed Fire Chi here?
Hua Yunxiang’s body shuddered as his gaze shifted to He Shaoyuan next to him, swiftly falling upon the torn Sealing Talisman in front of him.
"Sealing Talisman? Shaoyuan, did you summon this Demon Beast?"
Sealing Talismans could contain Demon Beasts until the moment one needed them, tearing the talisman would then summon the creature. However, when had He Shaoyuan acquired the Sealing Talisman for the Fierce Beast, the Eight-clawed Fire Chi?
"He Shaoyuan, you should know what a Fierce Beast is!" Hua Yunxiang couldn’t care less about anything else at this point, crying out anxiously, "Fierce Beasts are naturally violent and sometimes kill indiscriminately, not differentiating between friend and foe! Summoning a Fierce Beast could lead us all to a total wipeout!"
The corners of He Shaoyuan’s lips curled up slightly, but his eyes were chilling, "I had no choice, the Immortal Medicine Sect already promised me. If I did this, they would let me enter the Immortal Medicine Sect and assign me a significant duty. The Medicine Sect is indeed good, but it still pales in comparison to the Immortal Medicine Sect. As the saying goes, ’People seek higher ground, and water flows downward,’ so, I think you will understand me..."
A towering rage surged in Hua Yunxiang’s chest, and with a roar, he lashed out at He Shaoyuan. His voice trembled with fury as he shouted, "He Shaoyuan, we all trusted you so much, and yet you’ve let us down!"
"Haha!" He Shaoyuan couldn’t help but laugh, "Trust, what use do I have for your trust? Do you know that this Immortal Doctor Meeting will be your doom? Everyone here, except for me, will not survive! Originally, the Sect Leader intended to dispose of you by other means, but the higher-ups suddenly intervened, changing the venue to the Heavenly Doctor Array. But that doesn’t make much of a difference. In any case, you must all die here! Only with your deaths will I gain the Sect Leader’s attention..."
"He Shaoyuan, we’ve known each other for years, and you’ve abandoned your comrades just to climb the ranks?" Fu Qing cried out in anger, her eyes filled with deep pain and disappointment.
She could never have imagined He Shaoyuan would betray them.
The Medicine Sect had not treated him poorly; why would he do this?
Her eyelashes trembled gently, and Fu Qing closed her eyes in pain. When she opened them again, her clear eyes suddenly surged with a sharp light, like a sword thrust at the man in front of her.
"I’ve said it before, ’People seek higher ground, and water flows downward.’ If I find a better place, of course, I will choose to betray!"
He Shaoyuan sneered, his figure flashing back swiftly.
The Eight-clawed Fire Chi let out a roar that seemed to shake the heavens, sending ripples through the sky. Its formidable aura spread out, pressing down on them so heavily that they were unable to move...
