In the grotto-heaven that was on the verge of collapse, Mu Baishuang waved his hand and the sword Qi that was sealing the crack returned to his hand. His face was pale.
Even though he was an existence of the eighth Heavenly Layer of Martial Immortal, it was still extremely strenuous for him to seal a crack in a paradise, a crack in a small world, all by himself.
Yan Beifeng's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.
Chu Xiu!
No one had a problem with the series of attacks just now, but he had a problem. Even though the others didn't say anything, Yan Beifeng still felt embarrassed.
"Who was that person just now?" Mu Baishuang suddenly asked.
Yan Beifeng's face was dark and he didn't speak. Tao Qianming said, "It was Chu Xiu, the Cangwu County Chief of the Imperial Sky Pavilion. I heard that he is also a descendant of a Prime Sovereign. He seems to have a powerful background."
Mu Baishuang nodded but didn't say anything.
Tao Qianming asked cautiously, "Are we still chasing?"
Mu Baishuang shook his head and said, "We won't be able to catch up if we let them escape. It's suicide for us to enter the Eastern Territory alone. Let's go, this Blessed Paradise is about to collapse."
He was the one who proposed the plan to kill Fang Yinglong. Now that it had failed, he didn't feel depressed.
For Mu Baishuang, everything depended on the person, the timing, and the sword in his hand. As for the last part, it was up to the will of the heavens.
The will of the heavens didn't want Fang Yinglong to die. The Eastern Territory really wasn't easy to occupy.
Mu Baishuang waved his hand and the other cultivators of the Southern Territory also found an opportunity to leave as soon as possible.
When Martial Immortal-level experts fought with their lives on the line, they were capable of destroying several counties in the outside world. However, when placed in the Blessed Paradise, they managed to tear apart such an enormous Blessed Paradise. From this, one could imagine exactly how powerful they were.
…
In Cangnan Mansion, the remaining cultivators of High Heaven Sect and Imperial Sky Pavilion were gathered here.
This was already the territory of the Eastern Territory. If Mu Baishuang and the others dared to chase after them, the Eastern Territory would be able to send reinforcements as soon as possible.
However, Chu Xiu wasn't in a good state either. Blocking that Myriad Demon Kowtow had taken a lot out of him, especially in terms of his Vitality.
An existence of the fifth level of Martial Immortal, that sort of power, that sort of might, was simply unstoppable.
Even though Lu Jiang He had used the Blood Demon Transformation Art to combine the power of their blood and Qi, Chu Xiu did not manage to block this move. He only managed to block Yan Beifeng for three breaths, which was considered as giving Fang Yinglong a chance to catch his breath. Only then were they able to escape.
Fang Yinglong took a deep breath, then bowed to Chu Xiu and said in a deep voice, "Young friend Chu, if it weren't for your help, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to escape from the Southern Region's trap.
I, Ying Long, owe you a favour, and High Heaven Sect also owes you a favour.
From now on, the small conflicts between High Heaven Sect and you will be written off. As long as Chu needs my High Heaven Sect's help, as long as it doesn't harm High Heaven Sect's core interests, and as long as I am still the Sect Master of High Heaven Sect, I can agree to anything! "
Hearing Fang Yinglong's promise, even Lu San Jin sucked in a breath of cold air. He didn't expect Fang Yinglong to be so generous.
Although Chu Xiu's move at the critical moment had indeed turned the tables, this promise was almost equivalent to letting High Heaven Sect serve Chu Xiu for free once. This was a huge price to pay.
Xuanyuan Wushuang even stood up and said loudly, "Sect Master! You can't!
Chu Xiu is from the Imperial Sky Pavilion, and he's even more ambitious. If you agree to his conditions, who knows what he'll do in the future.
Moreover, in the Blessed Abode, Chu Xiu didn't care that I was from the East Territory at all. He forced us to retreat and snatched the treasure by himself. Martial Uncle Lin was also present at that time.
From this, we can see Chu Xiu's character. "
As soon as Xuanyuan Wushuang said this, even the people of High Heaven Sect couldn't stand it anymore. Martial Uncle Lin even pulled Xuanyuan Wushuang's arm to stop him.
Just now, everyone could see that if it weren't for Chu Xiu's move at the critical moment, Fang Yinglong would really have been in danger of dying.
Who was Fang Yinglong? He was the Sect Master of High Heaven Sect, the number one powerhouse in the East Territory. If Fang Yinglong died, not to mention the East Territory, the sky of High Heaven Sect would collapse.
But now, you're slandering Chu Xiu with such a trivial matter. This is a bit too much. "
Sure enough, before the others could say anything, Fang Yinglong shouted sternly, "All of you shut up!"
Xuanyuan Wushuang looked at Fang Yinglong in astonishment. At this time, Fang Yinglong's eyes had become extremely cold. It was a look that he had never seen before.
"This time, Chu saved my life. According to the morality of Jianghu, a drop of water should be repaid with a gushing spring. I, Fang Yinglong, can't do that. This is already the highest promise I can make. What do you mean by objecting now? Do you want my High Heaven Sect to bear the infamy, or do you think that my life is not so valuable? "
One of the reasons why Fang Yinglong was willing to make such a big promise to Chu Xiu this time was because of himself.
Although Fang Yinglong was not a righteous hero, he was not the kind of person who would bite the hand that fed him, nor was he a vicious and ruthless villain.
When Yan Beifeng performed the Thousand Demons Kowtow, Fang Yinglong really felt a trace of the aura of death. If it were not for Chu Xiu's help at the critical moment, he would probably have been killed this time.
Fang Yinglong's life was very valuable, so Chu Xiu was also worth so much in return.
Moreover, this was also related to the reputation of his High Heaven Sect.
Chu Xiu had saved him in front of so many people. If he did not treat Chu Xiu well and was stingy about it, then how would the East Domain, or even the entire Daluotian, view his High Heaven Sect in the future?
His High Heaven Sect could be said to be overbearing, domineering, or even unreasonable, but it could never be said to have no sense of morality or righteousness.
All these things added up in exchange for Chu Xiu's promise was very worth it.
However, it was a pity that Xuanyuan Wushuang was too narrow-minded. Even at this time, he still did not see through it and still cared about those petty grudges. Could such a person really be able to take charge of the High Heaven Sect in the future?
This was the first time that Fang Yinglong felt so disappointed in Xuanyuan Wushuang, a disciple whom his High Heaven Sect had once been proud of.
At this time, Chu Xiu also said indifferently, "Brother Xuanyuan, it's not a good habit to make personal attacks.
I, Chu Xiu, naturally have my own rules. In the Blessed Enclave, I told you to get lost and monopolize the treasure, because I have the strength to do so.
Obviously, I have the strength to monopolize the treasure, so why should I let it go? If you, Xuanyuan Wushuang, had the strength to do so, would you let me have the treasure?
As for me saving Sect Master Fang, it was because of righteousness! It was for the benefit of the entire East Domain!
The Southern Domain Martial Artists have the ambition of wolves. They set up a trap to kill Sect Master Fang, and their target is our East Domain.
As the County Governor of Cangwu Mountain, I am also a member of the East Domain. If the lips are gone, the teeth will be interdependent. At this time, I naturally have to put the overall situation first. What are the grudges between us?
If I can save Sect Master Fang's life, I am willing to take out the treasure that I have seized! "
Chu Xiu's last words were so righteous that the Martial Artists of the High Heaven Sect and the Imperial Sky Pavilion were all extremely moved.
The more Fang Yinglong looked at Xuanyuan Wushuang, the more disappointed he felt.
In his ideal mind, the successor of the High Heaven Sect should be like Chu Xiu, who would fight for small matters but stand firm when it came to big matters. He would not let the slightest grudge affect his judgment.
Standing behind Chu Xiu, Lu Jiang He could not help but secretly curl his lips, looking a little disgusted.
He found that while Chu Xiu's strength was growing, his face was also getting thicker. No, he was not shameless at all. Where did his face come from?
Fang Yinglong let out a long sigh and said, "It's great that Chu is so broad-minded and has such foresight.
In fact, I was also aware of the attitudes and movements of the major Sects in the Southern Domain, but I didn't expect that they would act so soon.
After this incident, all the Sects in the East Domain must be more vigilant. We can't let those Martial Artists of the Southern Domain take advantage of us. "
Chu Xiu suddenly said, "Sect Leader Fang, there's still Cold River City. After all, Cold River City is also a part of the East Domain. You have to properly remind Ye Weikong not to lose the big picture for the sake of a small gain at a time like this."
Lu Jiang He could not bear to listen to this at this time. In this way, Ye Weikong was actually the most miserable one.
He had just made a move to destroy the Imperial Sky Pavilion, but he was seriously injured by Fang Yinglong and caused such a mess. It was conceivable that he must be very sullen.
If Ye Weikong could see the big picture, then he could only continue to hold back his grievances and not take revenge.
On the contrary, if Ye Weikong insisted on making a move, then High Heaven Sect and Imperial Sky Pavilion might join forces in the end. Anyway, after such a thing happened, the trouble in Cold River City would be solved first.
Fang Yinglong nodded and said, "I know. The Southern Barbaric Land is your territory, Chu. It's close to the Southern Domain, so you have to be well protected here. I will take people back to High Heaven Sect to make arrangements."
After saying that, Fang Yinglong directly left with the people of High Heaven Sect. Zhong Qiushui also left with the people of Imperial Sky Pavilion to make arrangements.
After everyone left, Chu Xiu immediately began to enter retreat with Lu Jiang He.
Both of them used the Blood Demon Transformation Technique and consumed a lot of their vitality, so they needed to make up for it in time.
After a month, Chu Xiu's vitality was almost replenished. There was also news from outside that the big tomb in the Southern Barbaric Land had been completely shattered. The blessed land inside had been destroyed.
With so many Martial Immortal-level experts attacking at the same time, even a fairly large paradise would not be able to withstand their attacks.
So, even if Chu Xiu didn't spend any effort to find the core of the blessed land, his goal had been achieved.
Of course, it was not that Chu Xiu didn't gain anything. The core of the blessed land itself was a treasure.
