His words were filled with hatred.
"In the past, I was besieged by you humans, and I died with great hatred. Only a remnant of my soul was left, and it was hidden in the blood. It was barely enough to search for me. Later, I hid underground, and after a hundred years of training, I finally managed to recover most of my soul. Half a year ago, I coincidentally occupied this body, and used it to hunt down human experts. I used their blood, flesh, and Soul Power to recover my cultivation. Just when I was about to succeed and recover to my former peak, I attracted the attention of the Red Blood Palace."
He looked at Xue Qi and said coldly, "It's fine if you, the inner sanctum's disciples, recklessly came here to investigate this matter, but even the Red Blood Palace's Master came here personally. Therefore, I had no choice but to hide. My plan was to make Jiu An a scapegoat! Jiu An was insatiably greedy and thirsted for power. After consuming my Ghost Blood, he was turned into a Ghost. "
"I wanted to frame him and let the Red Blood Palace's people think that Jiu An was responsible for everything that had happened in the past six months. That way, I would be able to avoid a calamity."
"I really didn't expect that …" Manor Master Zhang looked at Su Yu coldly. "You unexpectedly raised a little ghost that could detect my Ghost Clan's aura and almost exposed my identity."
Hearing this, everyone was shocked.
It turned out that Jiu An's capture of Xue Qi was just a show arranged by Manor Master Zhang, and his purpose was to appease the factions' suspicions.
In the end, Su Yu unexpectedly found out about his true identity, and he informed Bing Wuxin and the others about it, which nearly ruined his plan.
"So, none of the five of you can leave anyone alive!" A ferocious look appeared in Manor Master Zhang's eyes. He had wanted to give Su Yu a chance to turn him into a ghost, but Su Yu had refused him.
As he spoke, the hearts of Su Yu and the others shuddered at the same time. Awful! He's going to silence them!
At the critical moment, the eyes of Bing Wuxin, who was restrained by the space, flickered.
"Sword follows the heart!" Bing Wuxin shouted in a low voice. The long sword at her waist buzzed and vibrated. It drew a white, bone-piercing sword light that swept in all directions.
The strange thing was that the sword light contained a profound meaning, which directly shattered the bound space.
At the same time, the sword energy splashed in all directions, and the space power that bound Su Yu and the others was broken.
Su Yu was shocked. What kind of technique was this? Sword technique, sword intent, or something else?
Su Yu's heart palpitated at the sight of that sword.
The might of this sword was in no way inferior to the strike of a peak early-stage Divine Master.
As expected of the strongest of the four great demons, Bing Wuxin was indeed incomparably powerful.
The power of space tore open, and the five of them simultaneously fled in four different directions.
This was the only way he could escape.
"Oh? Cultivating his swordsmanship to the state of Move at Your Will? Since ancient times, those who have broken through their limits and attained the realm of Heart Manipulation have all achieved great accomplishments. "Villa Master Zhang was neither hurried nor slow. A wisp of surprise flashed in his eyes, and his expression was extremely relaxed.
He stretched out his right hand and pressed down from the sky.
In an instant, a dangerous spatial energy surged into everyone's bodies, wanting to tear them apart from the inside!
The expressions of Xue Qi and the others changed drastically. Manor Master Zhang hadn't recovered his All Creation Realm cultivation, but his power had already reached the Divine Master Realm, and he could break through to the All Creation Realm at any moment.
This level of combat strength was not something they could contend against.
Seeing that they were about to be turned into minced meat in an instant, Su Yu's gaze turned cold. Do I have to expose my identity?
It would be difficult for me to contend against Manor Master Zhang, but creating a spatial vortex to help everyone escape wouldn't be an issue.
However, if I did that, my identity would surely be exposed, and I wouldn't be able to stay in the Red Blood Palace any longer.
Just as Su Yu was about to give up on his identity, a cold snort drifted over. "You managed to reveal yourself so easily. I really overestimated you."
Manor Master Zhang had set up a spatial isolation barrier outside the tent, so the sound of the outside world shouldn't be able to penetrate it.
There was only one possibility for such a situation to occur, and that was that the person who had come here had a cultivation higher than Manor Master Zhang's.
"Who is it?" Sure enough, Manor Master Zhang was shocked.
Sizzle!
All of a sudden, the space outside the tent was torn apart by an even more terrifying power.
The spatial power that was about to erupt from Su Yu and the others' bodies suddenly disappeared, as if it had been dissolved by something.
When Su Yu and the others raised their heads and looked over, they couldn't help but be startled.
They had an impression of the person who had just appeared. He was the person in charge of inspecting the treasures.
He wore a light blue robe and wore a solemn and ice-cold expression. Previously, he had even revealed that Su Yu's spatial ring contained a Ghost Clan's treasure, which he hadn't taken out yet.
At that time, Su Yu was quite surprised by how this person could see through his spatial ring.
"Blue Dragon?" Manor Master Zhang was quite surprised, and his pupils contracted slightly. "Who are you? Why are you hiding in the Elegant Spirit Manor? "
It wasn't difficult to discern the fear in Manor Master Zhang's voice, as he could feel that this person's power wasn't any lower than his own. He was also at the peak of the Divine Master Realm.
"I'm obviously following orders to supervise the Elegant Spirit Manor. Did you really think that the Red Blood Palace would let such an important place be managed by a Manor Master without any other means?" The blue-robed middle-aged man looked at him calmly.
He was the sanctum's spy in the Elegant Spirit Manor, and he was in charge of supervising the manor's previous Manor Masters to prevent them from betraying the sanctum.
Now, he was put to good use.
Manor Master Zhang's expression became gloomy, and he was filled with hatred and anger. He was just about to kill Su Yu and the others, who knew his identity, when Blue Dragon appeared!
It was only by killing him that he could get rid of any future troubles.
It seemed like Blue Dragon had seen through his thoughts, and he said calmly, "I'm not like the manor's elders, and it's your misfortune that you ran into me."
"Five Elements Heavenly Fire Palm!" Blue Dragon's expression was still calm, as he condensed a terrifying flame on each of his five index fingers, which contained a dense Heavenly Tribulation's will.
Sizzle!
As he thrust his palm, the five flames wove together and bombarded the ghost like five dragons.
"This is an All Creation Old Monster's tribulation's Tribulation Fire!" Manor Master Zhang's expression changed drastically, and fright welled up in his heart. It was as if he had run into his nemesis.
Startling ghost energy surged out of Manor Master Zhang's body, and he turned into a thirty-meter-tall ghost shadow that pounced at the dragon.
Hiss!
The Tribulation Fire seemed to have a boundless restraining power against the fog, and the thirty-meter-tall ghost shadow was dispersed by it.
Manor Master Zhang, who was hiding in the giant ghost shadow, let out a miserable cry as he was sent flying and spouted blood. His whole body was engulfed by the inextinguishable Tribulation Fire.
It was obvious who was stronger between the two of them.
Their powers were almost equal, but Blue Dragon was able to restrain him.
Manor Master Zhang had wanted to kill him a moment ago, but now, he was forced to give up on the Elegant Spirit Mountain, which was a suitable place for him to recuperate, and flee for his life.
Swoosh!
Manor Master Zhang looked at Su Yu with a threatening gaze, as if he was telling him that he would remember him.
After he spoke, he extended his hand, tore space apart, and fled.
"You want to leave?" Blue Dragon also tore space apart and chased after him.
In the twinkling of an eye, the two of them couldn't be found apart from the remnant spatial ripples.
"Is this a fight between half-step All Creation experts?" Xue Qi's eyes were filled with shock, and it was only after a long while that she muttered to herself.
Transforming into nature and using space were techniques that only All Creation Old Monsters were proficient in. However, the two of them were quite proficient in it. This meant that they had both touched the All Creation Realm, and it would only be a matter of time before they advanced to the All Creation Realm.
"It's strange … Who is this Blue Dragon? Why have I never heard of such a peerless expert in our Red Blood Palace?" Bai Shanliang asked in surprise.
Su Yu was also bewildered. He knew that there was a mysterious All Creation Old Monster in the outer sanctum, but the Red Blood Palace's propaganda to the outside world was that it only had one All Creation expert, Mo Tianxuan.
Su Yu wasn't surprised by Blue Dragon.
It seemed like the Red Blood Palace was hiding many secrets.
Manor Master Zhang was the true surviving member of a noble family, and he had alarmed the Elegant Spirit Mountain.
On that day, everyone, including Su Yu, went through a thorough inspection to see whether they were transformed ghosts.
However, it was fortunate that Jiu An was the only one who couldn't resist the temptation and became an accomplice of the Ghost Clan.
In the evening, Blue Dragon returned.
He brought back some regretful news. The All Creation Realm ghost was too cunning, and it had escaped. Blue Dragon had only managed to injure it heavily, and its cultivation had fallen to the middle stage of the Divine Master Realm.
This ghost could recover its cultivation by devouring human experts. So, if it wasn't killed today, it would surely become a disaster in the future.
However, Su Yu and the others wouldn't be tasked with the task of hunting down the ghost, as the sanctum's experts would deal with it.
In a side hall, the Elegant Spirit Mountain's people gathered together.
A man with an ice-cold and solemn face was standing next to the former Manor Master Zhang's seat. It seemed like he was in charge of the mountain manor.
"You are already aware of the current situation. Before the sanctum appoints a new Manor Master, I will temporarily take charge of the Elegant Spirit Mountain."
Bai Yang and the others were all shocked. It was obvious that they hadn't expected that an ordinary person in charge of inspecting treasures would be a peerless expert close to the All Creation Realm.
"Issue an order. From today onwards, the excavation work will be stopped. The sanctum will dispatch experts to clean up the Elegant Spirit Mountain and ensure that there aren't any leftover evil spirits left."
After he spoke, everyone felt like they had been relieved of a heavy burden.
Since the excavation work would be stopped for a long time, they wouldn't have anything to do.
"Moreover, the people who made contributions in this matter will be rewarded handsomely." Blue Dragon looked at Su Yu. "The people who discovered the altar in the underground cave and exposed Manor Master Zhang's identity as a ghost's leftover evil spirit, as well as the sanctum's hidden danger, will be rewarded with the Elegant Spirit Mountain's highest reward, a hundred thousand merit points."
A hundred thousand? The whole area became deathly silent.
Many pairs of fiery gazes seemed like they wanted to melt Su Yu.
Many Divine Master Elders had never received such a huge reward, yet it was given to a small disciple.
A hundred thousand merit points was the biggest reward the Elegant Spirit Mountain had ever received in its history.
However, no one doubted whether Su Yu was qualified to receive such a reward, as after all, he had made great contributions. If it wasn't for him, they would have all been deceived by a vicious All Creation Realm ghost.
In the future, once he matured, the Elegant Spirit Mountain's people would surely be plunged into misery and suffering.
A hundred thousand merit points was a small amount.
"Many thanks, senior." Su Yu was delighted. He had risked his life just to get a hundred thousand merit points. Now that he had received another generous reward, how could he not be delighted?
In that case, he wouldn't just get the Nine Suns Cosmos Sword Formation, he would also get a legendary cultivation technique.
