Chapter 271 You Shouldn't Have Come, I Predicted Your Prediction!
Su Heng's eyebrows slightly furrowed as he concentrated, channeling his strength into the sword scabbard.
As his strength surged like flames, the ancient blackwood scabbard blurred before lines of text rapidly appeared and swept across it.
"Huff!"
With a gentle swipe of his hand, Su Heng breathed a sigh of relief.
At least the issue didn't arise from his lair in Baihua County, but rather, Meng Huan had encountered trouble.
A few days ago, Wu Chenghua, the second-generation ancestor of the Wu Family, had invited Meng Huan as a guest to discuss matters of resisting the Mythical Battlefield. Within the immortal sects, the Wuji Sword Sect was the strongest. Among the aristocratic families, the Wu Family of Northern Jiang was second to none.
The meaning behind this union of two powers was significant.
Meng Huan certainly knew that there had been some chaos in Northern Jiang State, but perhaps out of confidence in his outstanding cultivation or maybe due to other considerations, he eventually decided to set out alone. And now, with a flying sword bearing a message arriving for Su Heng, it was clear that the conversation between the two hadn't gone smoothly.
"Meng Huan, as my senior, passed on the Sword Refining Technique and resolved my doubts, from which I've gained a lot. Now that he's in trouble, I cannot ignore it," Su Heng stated.
Su Heng had always been clear about gratitude and grudges.
Moreover, he had already planned to pay a personal visit to the Wu Family.
With such a situation occurring now, he didn't hesitate at all and prepared to set out immediately!
However, before that,
there were still some minor details to handle.
"It seems there is a strain of Blood Poison residing within you, which you can't completely eradicate?" Su Heng's gaze fell on Ke Yulan.
Her shoulder was a patch of blood red.
Though the wound was healing, dark red veins spread outward.
Slowly nearing the heart, they resembled crawling centipedes. At a glance, they appeared particularly ferocious and horrifying against her fair skin.
"I have no idea where this Blood Poison comes from. I've never seen it before," Ke Yulan said softly, "Master, could it be that you...?"
"Heh, you really know how to follow up on a lead," Su Heng said with a cold chuckle.
As the saying goes, a man who understands the times is a wise man. Su Heng was not averse to Ke Yulan's cooperative attitude.
"That fierce man has finally left. What's been going on lately? With evildoers rampant in Northern Jiang State, it looks like staying here is no longer an option," a muscular giant over two meters tall burst forth from the flames, approached Ke Yulan, and proposed, "Boss, why don't we take this opportunity to sneak away..."
Once Su Heng was gone,
Ke Yulan regained her cold and exquisite demeanor as a leader of the demonic path.
Slap!
Her brows, majestic as distant mountains, slightly furrowed as she slapped the man's face, sending his body spinning in place like a top.
Ke Yulan stretched out her hand, and another female disciple hurriedly handed her a clean towel.
"Didn't you hear the Master's orders just now?" Ke Yulan took the towel and wiped her fingers clean, then continued in a cold voice, "Go through the contents of the scroll again, compile a good route, and prepare contingency plans. Should this matter be botched, well..."
Within the Demonic Elephant Sect,
Ke Yulan's authority was immense.
With a cold glance, the remaining few hastily scampered off to get busy.
Watching the backs of the disciples and elders bustling about, Ke Yulan sighed lightly. Though freedom was lost, during such chaotic times, finding a stable refuge wasn't so bad. Not to mention, the man's history could only be described as legendary.
Perhaps...
She gently laid a hand on her ample chest.
Today's events, whether calamity or fortune, was something she had long sought but never obtained. It might be an opportunity after all.
...
...
...
"You're here?"
"I'm here!"
"You shouldn't have come..." With a sigh, the skeletal figure of an old man slowly emerged from the shadows.
"Why shouldn't I come?" Meng Huan removed his hat, casually hanging it on the rack beside him, "Going to Central State is fine, so is going to the Heavens of Longevity. Is your old residence in Northern Jiang a dragon's pool or a tiger's den that I alone shouldn't visit?"
