Zhuo Qingqing originally thought that she couldn't escape Master Liu's methods, but she didn't expect that at the critical moment, a power emerged from the baby and teleported her away.
When she reacted, she didn't dare to stay in the same place for long and hurriedly fled in the opposite direction of the branch of Anzhen Temple.
Just as Master Liu guessed, she didn't dare to expose the person because the child in her arms would be exposed.
She could feel that the child was connected to her by blood and breath. If she reported it, then she would be implicated as well. Plus, she didn't want to do that.
On the contrary, if she didn't say anything, no one but Master Liu would pay more attention.
Hiding from one person was much easier than hiding from all the cultivators.
She decided to leave this world. As the branch master, Master Liu couldn't leave the branch altar he was guarding for a long time. This way, she could avoid being tracked.
Once she made up her mind, she immediately rushed to a realm gate.
Along the way, she was very worried that Headmaster Liu might have guessed her purpose. Although he could not determine which Realm Gate she would use, with his friendship with the Yanjiao, he would probably be able to get someone to stop her with just a flying letter.
However, she was thinking too much. The Yanjiao always followed the rules when doing things, and there were strict rules. Unless the main altar gave the order, they would not care about personal feelings and face. Therefore, this time, she passed through the realm gate smoothly and went to the other side of the world.
Less than an hour after she left, Master Liu came here following the aura. There was no surprise on his face. He could guess that Zhuo Qingqing would most likely find a way to leave.
Although the realm gate was in the hands of the Yan Sect, he had a way to stop it if he really wanted to.
For example, he could use the excuse of a demon pretending to be a cultivator and make all the realm gates of the Yan Sect refuse to allow cultivators to pass through.
However, this would cause too much of a commotion and easily expose his purpose. One had to know that when Zhuo Qingqing obtained the baby jade stone, there were many people who saw it. Some people might associate it with this matter.
Most importantly, Zhuo Qingqing could teleport away in a moment of crisis last time. She might be able to do the same this time. Then the situation would be difficult to deal with.
It would be better to let her leave this world first and then he would go back to find her. That way, he wouldn't have to be so restrained.
As the leader of the branch of the Anatta Temple, he could not leave his post, but no one forbade him from doing so.
He had been in this position for nearly three hundred years, and had long accumulated enough merits. He could already hand over all sorts of matters and return to the Mountain and Sea Sect to report on his duties. During this period of time, he had enough time to complete what he wanted to do.
After some consideration, he decided to put Zhuo Qingqing's matter aside for now. At that time, he had not only done something to the Talisman, she would definitely not be able to escape from his hands.
After sneering a few times, he turned around and returned to the branch courtyard.
After Zhuo Qingqing successfully passed through the World Gate, she was afraid that Hall Master Liu would catch up to her, so she didn't dare to stop. She passed through many worlds and finally arrived at a remote place.
Here, she changed her name to Li Huaixing and found a way to join a sect that wasn't too big or too small. With her Yuanying State cultivation, even in a large sect, she could enjoy the status of an Elder. Here, she was even more courteous. After more than ten years, she could be considered to have gained a foothold.
However, for some reason, the baby formed by the red light never grew up. Fortunately, its intelligence was growing like a normal child's. This was the only thing that made her feel gratified.
For the convenience of taking care of him, as well as to conceal herself, she hired someone to build a flying carriage so that she could fly to and fro. She didn't want to expose this child in front of others. Thus, although she had accepted a few disciples over the years, none of them knew that she had such a child by her side.
On this day, Zhuo Qing Qing was riding a carriage while bringing a few disciples out for a patrol, and they arrived at the highest peak of the continent, Return Peak. As she gazed at the dazzling river of stars in the night sky, she couldn't help but sigh with emotion. "The boundless land beneath our feet is actually only a single Earthly Star, whereas, there are countless other similar Earthly Stars occupying the outer space. Only by cultivating a superior Dao Art would one be able to leave the land beneath our feet and roam the universe to see even more of the world."
On the surface, her words were meant to broaden the horizons of her disciples, but weren't they also meant for her to hear?
Every time she looked into the endless void, she felt how small she was. If she could cultivate to the Grotto-Heaven Realm, then she could go to any world and wouldn't have to fear Hall Master Liu.
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded. "Fellow Zhuo, are you still thinking of going to another world? That's true. Ever since you obtained that item, your cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds. Perhaps in a few hundred years, you'll be able to enter that realm. “
Who's there?! "A disciple sneered.
Zhuo Qingqing's heart tightened, but she forced her expression to remain unchanged. She said in a calm tone, "Fellow Zhuo, you've finally found your way here."
Hall Master Liu said, "Oh? Looks like Fellow Zhuo already knew that I would find this place? "
Zhuo Qingqing said to those disciples, "This is an old friend of mine. I still have some old matters to attend to with him. You can all go back first."
These disciples could also see that these two people seemed to be enemies and not friends. However, they also understood that not only would they be of no use here, they would only be a hindrance. Thus, they obeyed and left.
Hall Master Liu glanced at them but didn't stop them. He didn't take these disciples seriously. As for using these disciples to threaten her, that was even more of a joke. It was impossible for Zhuo Qingqing to give up her life for these disciples.
Zhuo Qingqing waited for these disciples to leave before she said, "May I know how Hall Master Liu found me?"
Hall Master Liu said, "When we Daoists pass through the realm gate, the disciples who guard the altar of Yanjiao will keep our appearance and Qi dynamic. In case something happens, it can be used for investigation in the future. It's not difficult for me to find the whereabouts of a person like you who disappeared for no reason with the excuse of investigation. Moreover, although the Talisman with you is gone, the secret technique of Anzhen Temple has always been kept. Unless you break through the void and leave by yourself, I really can't do anything to you. "
Zhuo Qingqing sighed, "I see." She looked at him calmly, "If I hand over the precious jade, will Fellow Zhuo let me go?"
Hall Master Liu said, "Why do you have to ask? You know that if this matter were to be spread, Anzhen Temple wouldn't tolerate me. Even if you're not willing to say it now, it's hard to guarantee that you won't say it in the future."
Zhuo Qingqing sighed, "I'm just telling myself not to take any chances when we make a move later."
The precious jade was long gone. Even if she was willing to hand it over, she couldn't take it out. She only asked this to tell herself that there was no way out now.
"Oh?"
Hall Master Liu looked at her up and down and said, "It seems that after all these years, Fellow Zhuo's cultivation has improved greatly? That's right, you've had the jade for many years. However, I have to tell you that cultivation experience and mana can be accumulated through this item, but supernatural Daoist techniques are passed down. "As he spoke, he raised his hand and a thunderous fire shot out.
Zhuo Qingqing indeed did not practice superior supernatural Daoist techniques, but with the power of the jade, her mana was now far superior to her peers. Even if she only used the wind to block, she could still break through the supernatural Daoist techniques.
However, after a dozen rounds, she realized that she had overestimated her own abilities. Hall Master Liu's methods were far beyond her expectations, and he was experienced and ruthless. He pressured her to the point where she had no way to fight back.
Actually, if Zhuo Qingqing looked at Hall Master Liu with the same eyes she had ten years ago, it wouldn't be wrong. However, how could Hall Master Liu not know that she could rely on the jade to improve her cultivation?
After he had retired from his position as Hall Master of the branch monastery, due to the merit he had accumulated, he could choose a superior supernatural Daoist technique to cultivate. He had been diligently cultivating this technique for the past few years, and after making sufficient preparations, he had come to find her.
After fighting for a day, because Zhuo Qingqing had to use her own mana to block her opponent's supernatural Daoist technique, her consumption was several times that of her opponent's. As a result, before she ran out of energy, she turned around and fled.
She hadn't expected Hall Master Liu to immediately chase after her. She knew that this time he was determined to take her life, but how could she be willing to be defeated just like that? She immediately used her Daoist technique to temporarily throw off Hall Master Li.
However, just as she was about to find a suitable place to set up a restriction formation and recover, she found that her mana had been completely used up. She couldn't help being startled. According to her original plan, she should have at least been able to use a Daoist technique once.
Just Just Now, she seemed to have been hit by a ray of light. However, there hadn't been any abnormalities at that time. Now it seemed that she had been careless at that time and had fallen for Hall Master Liu's technique.
She tried to swallow a few medicinal pills, but they didn't have much of an effect. After recovering a bit of her mana, it disappeared again.
Right at this moment, she heard the sound of footsteps approaching, and she couldn't help but sigh. Looks like it's impossible for me to escape calamity this time. But I won't allow anyone to seize my child away. She gritted her teeth and forcefully gathered a strand of her magic power, intending to slap open the Flight Talisman she prepared on the infant. But every time she exerted force, she was just a little bit off, and it caused her to be both terrified and anxious.
The footsteps suddenly stopped and a voice said, "The person inside, hurry up and come out. Don't think that you can scare me just because you're hiding inside without making a sound."
Zhuo Qingqing was stunned. She could tell that it wasn't Hall Master Liu's voice. She smiled bitterly and said, "It's not that I don't want to come out, but I really can't."
The curtain of the carriage moved without any wind and was lifted. A young cultivator walked in and looked at her. He touched his chin and said, "This is the Spirit-swallowing Demonic Insect. It's rare."
Zhuo Qingqing didn't know what kind of technique she had fallen for. She didn't expect this person to have such good eyesight. She couldn't help but be surprised and happy. She asked hopefully, "Fellow Daoist, can you help me get rid of this insect? I'll definitely repay you. "
The young cultivator said straightforwardly, "That's settled then." He pointed his finger and a cloud of smoke rose from Zhuo Qingqing's body and the inside of the carriage. Soon, it disappeared.
Zhuo Qingqing tried but found that it was still useless. She hurriedly said, "Fellow Daoist, why can't I circulate my mana even though you've gotten rid of this insect?"
The young cultivator explained responsibly, "This is because this demonic insect lives on a little spiritual vigor. You can't circulate your mana because you've been hit by the Divine Light of Huanzhen Temple."
