"You sure run fast!"
At the edge of the volcanic crater, a masked man stared coldly at Zhuge Chengfeng. His voice carried a mocking tone as he waved the sword in his hand and slashed at Zhuge Chengfeng.
Looking at the masked man, Zhuge Chengfeng frowned. He immediately moved his feet and hurriedly dodged to the side with Chu Yu. "Yu 'er, don't worry about me. You go first!"
The masked man's sword slashed through the air, but the second slash came. The sword emitted a faint green light and slashed diagonally at Zhuge Chengfeng's waist. Wherever the green light passed, a deep gully was left on the ground.
After pushing Chu Yu to the side, Zhuge Chengfeng no longer dodged. He pulled out the thin sword at his waist and began to fight with the masked man. Spiritual energy surged one after another.
In an instant, the two of them intertwined with various lights like fireworks. It was extremely beautiful.
"Water spirits that wander between heaven and earth, please listen to my call, Frost Thorn."
At this moment, the other masked man suddenly chanted an incantation. Then, three cold ice spears quickly appeared in front of him.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Under the illumination of the sun, the three ice spears shot towards Zhuge Chengfeng from different directions, carrying a bright radiance like rainbows in the sky.
Clang!
Zhuge Chengfeng stepped on the ground and his body suddenly rose into the air. Then, he swung his sword and the three ice spears shattered into countless pieces.
"Explode!"
The masked magician let out a loud shout, and the shattered ice shards suddenly exploded with a terrifying energy.
Suddenly, Zhuge Chengfeng's face turned pale and he spat out blood.
At this moment, the third masked man who had been waiting for a long time threw the spear in his hand. In the air, the spear tore through the void and arrived in an instant.
Zhuge Chengfeng immediately blocked with his sword. Even if he blocked the spear, he still could not dissipate the force on it.
Under the huge force, Zhuge Chengfeng's chest caved in. His entire body flew out like a cannonball and landed heavily on the ground, creating a half-meter deep crater.
"Master!"
Chu Yu shouted and quickly jumped into the crater to help Zhuge Chengfeng out. She used the little spiritual energy in her body to heal him.
"Didn't I ask you to leave?"
Zhuge Chengfeng's face was pale. After berating her, he pushed Chu Yu away. "Get out of here!"
Then, he struggled to straighten his body. He held his sword in front of his chest and coldly stared at the three masked men.
"Baiyue Nation is despicable!"
Not only did Chu Yu not leave, she even took two steps forward to fight side by side with Zhuge Chengfeng. "Father will definitely avenge us!"
Looking at Chu Yu's stubborn expression, Zhuge Chengfeng shook his head and sighed. He knew that his disciple was determined to stay.
"I didn't expect to earn another kill."
The masked man sneered. Their original target for this trip was Zhuge Chengfeng. Who would have thought that the princess of the Chu Kingdom, who rarely left the palace, would also come along?
"I didn't expect you to be so benevolent. You didn't abandon your master."
At this moment, Chu Bei leisurely walked in front of Chu Yu, his eyes filled with praise.
"You bastard! Do you think they will let you go after killing us? You're about to die, yet you're still teasing me! "Chu Yu bit her lip as she glared at Chu Bei.
"Kill them all. Leave no one alive!"
As expected, the three masked men glanced at Chu Bei and Chen Nan. Their chilling voice drifted through the air.
Immediately after, the three of them gathered their power at the same time. Sharp sword auras, bone-chilling ice spears, and long spears carrying wind blades rose against the wind.
Three different types of attacks mixed together. At the same time, they overflowed with light and carried a terrifying aura as they swept towards Zhuge Chengfeng, Chu Yu, and Chu Bei.
"Hua Li Hua Li."
Looking at the attacks coming from the opposite side that shook the void, Chu Bei calmly raised his right hand. A palm print formed by purple light shot out.
The purple light palm print met the wind blades, ice spears, and long spears.
There was no deafening explosion, nor was there a violent energy storm.
Everything was silent.
In front of the purple light palm print, the attacks of the three masked men were as if they were made of air. Before they even touched it, they disintegrated and dissipated.
After destroying the fancy attacks, the purple light palm print continued to move forward. In an instant, it appeared in front of the three black-robed men.
It was still silent.
The air was slightly stagnant. The ground became silent.
The pupils of the three black-robed men shrank. Fear appeared in their eyes. Before they could scream and dodge, they were turned into nothingness by the purple light palm print.
Not even a speck of dust was left.
If it were not for the remnants of the previous battle, one would even suspect that the three black-robed men had never appeared.
Zhuge Chengfeng was stunned as if he had been struck by lightning. He did not care about his injuries and forgot to treat them.
Chu Yu and the group of guards stared blankly at Chu Bei, and they were even more surprised to the point they were like half a piece of wood that was stuck there in a daze, not moving at all.
After a while, Chu Bei tilted his head and looked at Zhuge Chengfeng. He pointed at Chu Bei and gulped. "Master, he … what's his cultivation level? Level five? "
"I'm afraid it's above level five." Zhuge Chengfeng shook his head and smiled.
His current cultivation level was at level four. Although he had not stepped into level five, he could already see the strength of level five.
He was sure that there was no way that a Tier 5 being would be able to kill three Grand Ascension Stage beings with a casual wave of a hand.
"Could it be the legendary level six?"
Chu Yu took a deep breath. A strange look appeared in her eyes. She was counting on Zhuge Chengfeng to avenge her.
Now, it seemed that her idea was a joke.
Looking at Chu Bei who was walking towards her, Chu Yu's expression changed as she sensed the teasing smile on the other party's face. She was so frightened that she took a step back.
"Senior, what I said before was a joke. Please don't take it seriously." Chu Yu hurriedly said. Her attitude had changed completely.
Now, she did not think that the person in front of her was just a young man with some strange tricks. She believed that a level six master could definitely rejuvenate. Maybe the person in front of her was already a 200-year-old monster.
"Sir, Yu 'er is naughty. Please don't be calculative with her."
Zhuge Chengfeng protected Chu Bei behind him and cupped his fists at Chu Bei. There was a pleading look in his eyes. "If you insist on making Yu 'er take responsibility for her previous offense, I'm willing to sacrifice myself."
Then, Zhuge Chengfeng raised his right hand and smashed it between his eyebrows.
Bang!
Before the attack arrived, the aura gathered in Zhuge Chengfeng's palm was disintegrated by an invisible force.
"Living is a wonderful thing. Don't seek death so easily."
Chu Bei smiled and looked at Chu Yu closely. He raised his eyebrows. "I'm very interested in the castration you mentioned earlier."
Hearing Chu Bei's words and recalling her arrogant words, Chu Yu's body trembled. She staggered and almost fell to the ground. "Senior, I'm a girl. I don't have that."
"Then I can give you one."
Chu Bei shrugged. "Do you believe that I have that ability?"
"Senior, I … I was wrong! Please forgive me. "
Meeting Chu Bei's mocking gaze, Chu Yu's face turned pale. Her legs gave way and she fell to the ground.
"Little girl, let me give you a word of advice. Trouble comes from careless talk."
Chu Bei stopped threatening Chu Yu. He tidied his clothes. "Let's go. I saved your lives. I can use this opportunity to pick a treasure from your palace."
"Sir, you want to follow us back to the palace?" Zhuge Chengfeng was confused.
Chu Bei nodded. "The Blazing Fire Immortal Lotus is a gift. I want to ask for something."
— —
Chu Country, Imperial City.
Outside the palace, the streets were crowded with people. It was very lively.
Chu Country's Imperial City was divided into the Inner Palace and the Outer Palace. The Outer Palace was surrounded by a dark red wall and some male guards. Of course, there were also some ordinary and simple houses. The main task of these guards was to prevent anyone suspicious from getting close to the palace.
After passing through the Outer Palace and passing through a five-meter-tall golden wall, one would arrive at the Inner Palace. There were many magnificent palaces in the Inner Palace, indicating its core position in the Imperial City.
On the side of the high golden wall, teams of guards who had undergone strict training were patrolling back and forth.
"I didn't expect your return home to be so grand." Chu Bei glanced at the formation in front of him and couldn't help but glance at Chu Yu.
Soldiers stood on both sides of the Inner Palace's gate. Their shiny armor stretched all the way to the end of the red carpet.
At the end of the red carpet, a slender figure stood quietly on the steps. She was dressed in snow-white clothes. Under the light of the rising sun, her whole body seemed to be dyed with a layer of faint golden light. She looked like a fairy who had descended from the Nine Heavens. As her clothes fluttered, she looked like she would fly away with the wind at any time.
"Sister, I'm back!"
Chu Yu shouted excitedly. Then, she sprinted toward Chu Yue and threw herself into the latter's arms.
"Elder Sister, I almost died outside! First there was the python, then there was the attack from the Baiyue Nation. Fortunately, I was lucky enough to survive. "Chu Yu hugged Chu Yue's waist and couldn't wait to act pitiful.
Chu Yue knocked Chu Yu's forehead affectionately. "How dare you mention it? Do you know that father and mother were worried sick when you snuck out of the Imperial City? Let's see how you explain it later! "
"They love me so much. They won't punish me," Chu Yu said proudly.
"Who are these two?"
Chu Yue noticed Chu Bei and Chen Nan, who had come back together. She asked Chu Yu with a puzzled look in her eyes.
"He was the one who saved my master and me from the Baiyue Nation's powerhouses. As for coming to the Imperial City, he was asking for something. As for what it was, I don't know. "Chu Yu pointed at Chu Bei and told Chu Yue about her experience as they walked.
"What? It could be a Level Six! "
Chu Yue caught the key point. She raised her eyebrows and widened her eyes. She looked at Chu Bei with astonishment.
"Sister, is father in his chamber right now?" Chu Yu asked.
Chu Yue nodded. "Then bring these two to see father first."
In the depths of the Inner Palace, in the Emperor's chamber.
In the magnificent hall with golden walls, there was a bright and cheerful dance song. Following the song, a few male and female servants in strange costumes began to dance.
The Emperor of Chu Country, Chu Han, was currently lying on a large and comfortable soft chair covered with a golden colored marten fur in the center of the main hall. He was concentrating all his attention on admiring the enchanting dance of the maids below the stage. From time to time, he would nod his head to express his appreciation for the dance below the stage.
"Father, did you miss me?" Chu Yu ran into the hall. Her voice was so coy that it made one's hair stand on end.
"I thought you died outside!"
Seeing that Chu Yu had returned safely, Chu Han was overjoyed at first. Then, as if he had thought of something, his face darkened.
After a cold snort, Chu Han gestured with his hand. The dancing servants bowed and retreated.
"This child left the palace without your permission. Wasn't it all for your birthday present!" Chu Yu hugged Chu Han from behind with a resentful expression as if she had been wronged.
"Where is the gift?" Chu Han's anger had not dissipated.
"My gift was taken by senior first." Chu Yu pouted and pointed at Chu Bei.
"Senior?"
Chu Han frowned. His gaze fell on Chu Bei. "Who are you?"
"Who I am is not important."
Chu Bei said calmly. "I came here to ask for something from your Majesty."
"You came here to ask for something so brazenly?" Hearing Chu Bei's words, Chu Han waved his dragon robe and his face became ugly.
"Father, he is a sixth level master! He was also the one who saved us. "
Seeing Chu Han get angry, Chu Yu hurriedly took a step forward and stood on her tiptoes to whisper into Chu Han's ear.
Hearing this, Chu Han frowned and looked at Zhuge Chengfeng. Zhuge Chengfeng did not say anything and only nodded. He had already guessed what Chu Yu had said to Chu Han.
"You are a sixth level master and saved Yu 'er. If I really have something you like, I am willing to give it to you and make a good relationship with you."
Hearing Zhuge Chengfeng's reply, Chu Han's attitude improved. "What do you want?"
"The thing in that box."
Chu Bei pointed at a rectangular sandalwood box hanging on the wall by the bed. The box's position matched the red dot on the system map.
Seeing what Chu Bei was pointing at, Chu Han's originally relaxed expression turned ugly once again.
But before Chu Han could say anything, Chu Yu, who had been curious for a long time, rushed to the bed and took the sandalwood box.
"Hou Yi's bow!"
Once the box was opened, Chen Nan and Chu Yu's shocked shouts resounded in the hall.
Looking at the bow with a black luster, Chen Nan's pupils contracted. He stared at it without blinking. His gaze was filled with a strange emotion, as if he had seen a long-lost friend.
Hou Yi's bow!
He did not expect that after dying for ten thousand years, the first thing he saw after his resurrection would be the divine bow that shook the Immortal Fantasy Continent.
The Hou Yi's bow had changed owners countless times. The last owner before his death was his father, Chen Zhan.
Back then, Chen Zhan relied on this bow to kill three peerless masters who surrounded him in a single day. From then on, he became famous and shook the entire Immortal Fantasy Continent.
"Old friend, I did not expect to meet you again after ten thousand years …" Chen Nan's lips trembled.
Chen Nan's lips trembled as he softly muttered. Then, he raised his eyes to look at Chu Bei. "Master, is this what you came here for?"
Chu Bei glanced at Chen Nan and nodded in response.
Chu Yu, who was holding the box, was shocked. She did not expect that the thing the other party wanted was the Hou Yi's bow!
This was the most precious treasure of Chu! How could they give it to someone else?
