“Retreat!”
Amid Luo Chen’s astonishment, Miao Wen retreated without hesitation.
Not just him, Luo Tianhong reacted in the same way.
Naturally, Luo Chen couldn’t fall behind. Using the Carefree Wind Control in combination with his Cloud-Stepping Boots, he suddenly burst forth at maximum speed.
They quickly moved tens of miles away, one after the other.
Miao Wen glanced at him in surprise.
Something’s wrong!
A shudder ran through Luo Chen’s heart. In his haste just now, he had accidentally displayed his maximum speed.
One must know that Miao Wen and Luo Tianhong are both Sword Cultivators.
Though their speeds are not yet at the level of Golden Core Cultivators, they are known for their exceptional speed among those of the same rank.
At his full speed, Luo Chen was only a step slower than the two Foundation Establishment Cultivators.
No wonder Miao Wen was looking at him that way.
Just as Luo Chen regretted his disadvantageous position, a deafening rumble came rolling from the far distance.
The waves were stormy, making Luo Chen’s face pale, and he seemed to plummet down in a daze.
It wasn’t until his gentle Spirit Power pulled him back that he woke up with a start.
A cold voice echoed in his ears.
“You’ll have to fend for yourself!”
Grateful, Luo Chen gave Luo Tianhong a nod. It was he who had noticed Luo Chen’s awkward position and had given him a hand.
Otherwise, falling from a height of a thousand meters, even with Luo Chen’s physique, he would have sustained serious injuries.
“Humph!”
Miao Wen sneered, “Better retreat to a farther distance, or else when the fight between Golden Core Period cultivators spreads over here, we might not be able to protect you.”
“Moreover, at such a distance, you can’t deploy your spirit consciousness, so you can’t see anything.”
Luo Chen gritted his teeth and flew about a mile behind the two.
This distance was safe enough.
The battlefield was on the Lancang River side, tens of miles away.
Even if there were any residual waves of the fight spreading over here, the two Foundation Establishment True Cultivators ahead provided Luo Chen with enough time to react.
However, for insurance, he still brought out the Four Symbols Tripod.
Four colored tassels hung from the tripod, wrapping him up tightly for protection.
His movements naturally didn’t escape the attention of Miao and Luo.
However, it was clear that their attention wasn’t on him, but rather, they were intently staring gravely at the distance.
After Luo Chen got ready, he took a deep breath and looked towards the wide surface of the Lancang River.
Who said he couldn’t see anything?
His Spirit Vision Technique had reached finalization a few days ago, and he could clearly see everything within a range of a hundred miles.
It was only dusk now, and visibility wasnotsopoor that he couldn’ t see clearly.
Under his gaze.
The gold light faded, and tranquil waves rolled gently.
A man wearing a long red robe, named Pang Renxiong, was standing upright above the nine heavens, overlooking the river.
“Cowards, get out here!”
Following his thundering command, layers of echoes exploded across the river’s surface
A light sigh, unaffected by the boundless ripples of echoes, was faintly heard in reply.
“Friend Pang, why must you be so ruthless?”
The next moment, two beams of light, one black and one white, slowly lifted a weather-beaten figure up from the bottom of the Lancang River.
Seeing the two beams of black and white light, Pang Renxiong snorted coldly.
“The Lan Ke Black and White Chess Pieces!”
“As I thought, it was you who personally killed Mi Shuhua.”
The man shrouded in the black robe gave a bitter smile, “But just a Foundation Establishment Stage Rogue Cultivator, hardly worth all this trouble.”
However, Pang Renxiong shook his head.
“If it’s not for him.”
“Mi Shuhua was just bait. The one I want to catch is the mastermind who blamed my Yu Ding Sword Sect.”
“Let me ask you, was Fei Bowen of Ailao Mountain, killed by you!”
The man in the black robe was startled, but then he promptly denied it.
” I have no old grudges nor recent grievances with Ailao Mountain. Why would I kill him?”
“Your words don’t count. You will come back with me to Yu Ding Sword Sect for further investigation.”
In response to his words, the black-robed cultivator’s anger surged.
“You’re pushing too far, I am but a humble Rogue Cultivator. If I really go to the Yu Ding Sword Sect, won’t I be at your mercy?”
“You have no choice!”
” Heh, I’ d like to see what you can do to give me no choice.”
Clearly, this person wasn’t the type to let others walk all over him.
As soon as his words were finished, streams of purple gold wheels emerged from behind him. At first glance, there seemed to be hundreds of them.
Sky Moon Purple Gold Wheel!
This person’s Qi Power was profound. With just one move, he fully unleashed the power of his magic weapon.
This was far beyond the capabilities of Foundation Establishment Cultivators like Mi Shuhua.
Facing this move, Pang Renxiong looked disdainful, and opened his mouth to spit.
A Sword Pill suddenly flew out, transforming in an instant into thousands of sword lights, enveloping hundreds of flying wheels within.
Intense collisions and continuous explosions roared.
The sweeping Qi Power raged, causing the Lancang River to ripple and roil.
Watching this battle from tens of miles away, Luo Chen was struck by the spectacle.
Is this the power that Golden Core Cultivators wield?
Just a probing move, yet it’s shaking the Great River.
The surge of Qi Power filled the area within ten miles with a murderous aura.
If they were to make a move on him, even from tens of miles away, it would probably just take a thought, right?
Suddenly, his ears twitched.
“It seems we were right, it is this black-robed Golden Core Cultivator who secretly murdered Mi Shuhua.”
“Hmm, the Sky Moon Purple Gold Wheel was sold by me at the auction house, the buyer was none other than Mi Shuhua. Also, this defensive magic item, the Lan Ke Black and White Chess Pieces, was the treasure of the Supreme Elder of Ghost God Valley.”
“Junior brother, these Lan Ke Chess Pieces should have come from the Ancient Plains Mountain Range ruins, right? At the time, I acted on orders and hired the Broken Mountain Gang to locate them. They did indeed find the real ruins. But when Elder Pang entered them and took most of the relics, why didn’t he take these magical items as well?”
“We have to leave some things, or how else could we bait such a big fish.”
