It was not Feng Xiange!
This was an obvious fact now.
Feng Xiange should have been severely injured. Even if he was healthy, he still would not have had the ability to withstand Ling Xiaozui and Dugu Chou's full-force attack, what more when they joined forces!
Not only could this person before them, this fake Feng Xiange, go head-on against both of them, he had only been injured. Both of them still had to withstand the counterattack; it was not a pleasant experience!
Based on this capability alone, he had to be at least a master of the same level as Ling Xiaozui and Dugu Chou. Otherwise, it would have been impossible!
Feng Xiange, who was in midair, was bleeding from his seven orifices as he spat a mouthful of blood. He staggered but managed to regain his footing several hundred feet in the air. Coughing, he said with a chuckle, "This purple jade flute is not bad. It hasn't shattered even after being pushed to the limit. It's worthy of me. I'll accept it!"
Before his words echoed in the air, he had already set his stance. It was obvious that he was going to soar into the air and travel a thousand miles away.
Ling Xiaozui let out another deep roar like a dragon, a look of determination on his face.
The other party could still move so freely after taking on both of their attacks. His capability was more than just powerful. Ling Xiaozui could vaguely guess this person's true identity. However, he did not expect that this person would choose to reveal himself now after disguising himself for so long!
He did not even hesitate to abandon their original plan.
The only reason … was to stop the Nine Supremes from reuniting?
Then, the other party must be Mr. Nian!
The Four Seasons Tower's true top person, the one and only Mr. Nian, the real Mr. Nian!
Only he would view the reuniting of the Nine Supremes with such importance!
The instantaneous realization left Ling Xiaozui with no other options left to him.
Now that things had come to this, there was no other way to keep this terrifying enemy here other than self-destructing his sword core and perishing together!
Sword energy whizzed, filling the air with desolation. Just as Ling Xiaozui was about to soar with his sword and unleash his maximum strength to fight for his life, he suddenly stopped what he was about to do.
A shocking change had occurred before his eyes.
In midair, Feng Xiange, who had fled hundreds of feet away with the purple jade flute, suddenly cried out. As he trembled, he spat out a mouthful of blood.
The purple jade flute, which was supposed to be held tightly in his hand, fell out of his hand!
Then, Feng Xiange, who was in midair, cried out again. His body trembled even more violently. His black hair suddenly turned white, then snow-white. In the blink of an eye, it had fallen off completely!
However, that person was not in the mood to pay attention to his own condition. His entire mind was focused on what was in front of him, as if he had seen a ghost.
In front of him was the purple jade flute. At this moment, it was suspended in mid-air, and its entire body was overflowing with an extremely noble purple color. It was like the emperor of the sky, looking down on the world!
Elegant and calm!
Inviolable!
With a slight tilt, the purple jade flute, which was still emitting a colorful purple aura, began to slowly descend.
A voice seemed to come from beyond the Nine Heavens. It was elegant, ethereal, and unfathomable, but it showed the calmness of looking down on the world!
"Blowing through the lake waters of the Nine Heavens, only the purple jade flute in my hand!"
…
In the sky, Feng Xiange watched the falling purple jade flute indignantly.
However, with a flash of sword light, Dugu Chou had already taken off with his sword, his target Feng Xiange.
With a loud cry, Feng Xiange turned into a ray of light and soared into the sky, vanishing in a flash.
This person obviously knew that he could not continue. Putting aside the fact that he had just endured Ling Xiaozui and Dugu Chou's combined attack and was severely injured, the damage caused by the purple jade flute's mutation had further reduced his combat strength. If he did not leave immediately, he would be in danger of being killed.
Although the person was escaping at a high speed, Dugu Chou and Ling Xiaozui's eyes could still see that the imposter Feng Xiange had aged a few more years in an instant!
Perhaps, a hundred years of his lifespan had been drained away, and his hair and beard had all fallen off!
Age spots had appeared on his face as well, and his entire body was beginning to exude an aura of old age. His hands were like dried chicken claws.
It was as if the change just now, a strange force had sucked away a large part of his vitality!
Even if he had managed to escape, it was only a dying old man!
Looking at his condition, he might not be able to live for more than three days; he was only left with the last struggle to prolong his life.
"Don't chase after him!"
Gu Chaliang cried out hysterically, "Go send the flute first, it's urgent!"
Ling Xiaozui sprung up without another word, grabbing the purple jade flute in his hand and saying in a low voice, "I'll go!"
Before his words echoed in the air, he turned into a ray of light and sped towards Tiantang City with a deafening clap of thunder.
The purple in the sky grew thicker, not diminishing with the passage of time.
Ling Xiaozui, who was sprinting at full speed, charged into the purple aura like a ray of light. It was as if he had become one with the purple aura, vanishing just like that!
Obviously, Ling Xiaozui knew that the matter was urgent, so he was going all out!
Seeing that Ling Xiaozui had finally left, Gu Chaliang heaved a sigh of relief and plopped onto the ground. Sweat broke out all over him, drenching his clothes instantly. He murmured weakly, "I hope I can make it in time. I hope I can make it in time. I must make it in time!"
Dugu Chou sucked in a breath and pulled Gu Chaliang up, saying, "Can you tell me what happened now?"
Gu Chaliang exhaled and said, "I'm sorry, I still can't say."
Dugu Chou said, "Forget it then."
"Let's go quickly." Gu Chaliang was inexplicably agitated due to the series of events just now. His legs were still shaking and shaking as he said, "Carry me. Let's hurry to Tiantang City as well. Perhaps we can catch up to the tail!"
Dugu Chou said, "Alright! Let's go! "
Without further ado, he carried Gu Chaliang on his back and sprinted towards Tiantang City.
"Dugu, you have a bad temper but you're still a nice person."
"Is that so? Thank you for the compliment."
Silence ensued.
After a long, long time, Gu Chaliang said, "Dugu, for today's sake, I'll give you a word of advice."
Dugu Chou said faintly, "This is what I should do. You don't owe me anything."
Gu Chaliang smiled and said, "Dugu, I've observed your destiny. You have a calamity of certain death before you that you have to face. As long as you can get through it, there will be no more obstacles in your path to immortality!"
Dugu Chou dared not neglect Gu Chaliang's dictum. He said, "Hmm? A calamity of certain death? May I ask how it can be resolved? Since it's a calamity of certain death, I'm afraid it can't be easily resolved! "
"That's not necessarily the case. As long as you find the right person, death can be spared. However, there's only one person in this world who can resolve this calamity of certain death for you!" Gu Chaliang said in a low voice, "As long as you follow this person, not only will you be spared from the calamity, perhaps the hope of you and your wife reuniting will also rest on this person!"
Creak!
Dugu Chou's body that was charging forward like an arrow came to an abrupt halt. The soles of his shoes drew two deep grooves on the ground as he said, oblivious, "What did you say?"
