"Gulp … you …" Xiahou Longcheng's eyes widened, blood dripping from the corner of his mouth. His eyes were filled with disbelief. He'd been arrogant and domineering for so many years, relying on his family background to do whatever he wanted. Even if he'd done all sorts of bad things and offended everyone, he'd never thought he'd end up like this. Most importantly, people had appeared one after another to kill him, and he didn't even know why.
Sword light flashed again. His head tilted, and he fell back.
Standing behind Zhang Luanshan, Pei Mo slowly lowered his sword as blood dripped down the blade. He looked at Zhang Luanshan and sighed softly. The two of them had no enmity and had known each other for many years. He'd never thought of killing him, but something had happened here and he'd had no choice but to act.
When the second drop of blood dripped down the blade, Pei Mo suddenly waved his sword. The sword turned into a stream of light. Boom! It pierced through a hillside.
Behind the hillside, the little old man who had been hiding behind a rock with a face full of fear turned his head and turned pale with fright. "En …" The beam of light directly cut off his head. His head was separated from his body and he fell to the ground.
The stream of light flipped back into Pei Mo's hand. Shaking off the blood, Pei Mo looked around and put away his sword. He quickly dealt with the corpses, disguising their wounds. The duty of the Supervisory Right Division was to investigate cases. He'd been there for so many years and was very good at it. Otherwise, he wouldn't have dared to do this.
After everything was done, the bag Xiahou Longcheng had been holding fell into his hand. He quickly erased Xiahou Longcheng's spiritual source and injected his own spiritual source to control the treasure.
After pondering for a moment, he waved his hand and tossed the sack out. It swelled up with the wind and opened its mouth, spitting out a person with a whistling sound. The bag shrunk and flashed back into Pei Mo's hand.
Having escaped, Yan Beihong raised his sword and looked around vigilantly. He still didn't understand what was going on and didn't know how he'd come out again. He looked down at Pei Mo's hand. He stared at the magic treasure in Pei Mo's hand and then at the corpses of Xiahou Longcheng and the others, his eyes filled with doubt.
Standing below, Pei Mo pointed his sword at him and asked, "Who are you? Did you kill them? "
Yan Beihong was confused. At first, he thought that the person in front of him was the one who killed the person. Who would have thought that the person in front of him would ask if he was the one who killed the person? Could it be that there was someone else? Or could it be that Miao Yi had sent someone else as a precaution?
Yan Beihong quickly scanned his surroundings. Not seeing anyone else, he asked in a hoarse voice, "Who are you?"
Pei Mo flipped his hand and revealed a token. "The Heavenly Courts are supervising the Right Division! Who are you? "
Yan Beihong was shocked. He had naturally heard of the Heavenly Court's Supervisory Right Division. Why was it here?
The knife in his hand moved slightly, and he had the urge to kill. However, his gaze fell on the bag in the other party's hand, and he was somewhat fearful. He had just experienced the power of this Dharma treasure, and he did not know the depth of the other party's strength. Moreover, Xiahou Longcheng was already dead. No matter who killed him, he had achieved his goal.
Most importantly, he was wearing a mask. The other party didn't know who he was either, so he quickly soared into the sky and fled.
"Stop!" Pei Mo shouted angrily. His figure flashed as he gave chase. A streak of light left his hand and shot into the sky.
Bang! With a wave of his hand, Yan Beihong struck out with his saber, sending the flying sword flying as he quickly fled.
Pei Mo called back his flying sword and gave chase all the way to outer space. It seemed like the two of them were evenly matched, but in reality, Pei Mo's cultivation was much higher than Yan Beihong's.
Yan Beihong, who would occasionally turn his head to check, was shocked when he saw Pei Mo taking out the Star Bell. He was clearly trying to contact the Heavenly Court. The Heavenly Court had the advantage in numbers, and could mobilize a large number of troops at any time. It would be troublesome if he was intercepted by the Heavenly Court's troops. However, he couldn't shake off the other party, and he wanted to kill him, but he was afraid of the transcendent artifact in the other party's possession. He still couldn't think of a way to deal with that transcendent artifact.
Yan Beihong, who was fleeing at top speed, quickly pulled out a star chart to look for the best place to escape. Fortunately, Xiahou Longcheng had been demoted to a rather remote place. Not too far away was the Astral Wilderness, also known as the Chaotic Astral Sea. Yan Beihong furrowed his brows. Escaping into the Chaotic Astral Seas was a good choice, but he wasn't willing to do so. The reason why this place was called the Chaotic Astral Seas was because it was extremely easy for those who entered this place to get lost. Once they got lost, it was very likely that they would never be able to come out again.
However, he had no other choice. When the other places received news, the Heavenly Court's troops would definitely lock them down immediately. He was alone, and it would be very difficult for him to escape if he went elsewhere. With no other choice, he could only brace himself and charge in the direction of the Chaotic Astral Seas. He would first enter the Chaotic Astral Seas, and then think of a way to escape.
However, what he didn't know was that there was also a group of troops stationed at the outskirts of the Chaotic Astral Seas. Their main purpose was to prevent any fugitives from escaping.
Along the way, Yan Beihong took out the Star Bell and contacted Miao Yi, quickly informing him of the situation. No matter what happened, Xiahou Longcheng was already dead, so Miao Yi wouldn't have to worry about him anymore.
Inside the command tent, Miao Yi sat quietly behind a long table. After putting away the Star Bell in his hand, his expression was a little grim.
That's right, he was the one who sent Yan Beihong to kill Xiahou Longcheng. However, he had underestimated Xiahou Longcheng. Yan Beihong had failed, and even Yan Beihong himself had almost failed miserably. The strange thing was, he didn't know who killed Xiahou Longcheng, but then someone from the Heavenly Court's Supervisory Right Division suddenly appeared out of nowhere, and now they were targeting Yan Beihong.
The situation was a little strange, and it had seriously deviated from his expectations. Now, Yan Beihong was in big trouble, and he was in big trouble as well. Once Yan Beihong fell into the Heavenly Court's hands, even if Miao Yi was certain that Yan Beihong wouldn't betray him, the Heavenly Court's Supervisory Right Division's various interrogation methods would put Yan Beihong out of his control.
Miao Yi sighed softly. If he had known this would happen, he would have sent Yan Xiu to carry out the task. Yan Xiu had been by his side all these years, and he had seen Xiahou Longcheng before. If he could make Xiahou Longcheng lower his guard, it would be easy for the assassination to succeed. But the problem was that this place was too far away from where Xiahou Longcheng had been demoted. Yan Xiu was a subordinate of the Left Commandant, and if he disappeared for too long, it would be easy to raise suspicions, especially when Xiahou Longcheng had suddenly died right after Xiahou Clan asked him about the Blood Demon. After all, he had a spy from the Heavenly Court by his side. That was why he had sent Yan Beihong to avoid suspicion. Who would have thought that something like this would happen?
Yan Beihong had already told him to prepare to escape into the Misty Star Seas. If he really couldn't escape, he wouldn't allow himself to fall into the Heavenly Court's hands. He had asked Miao Yi to help take care of Hong Xiu and Hong Fu.
Miao Yi knew what these words meant. In order to protect him, Yan Beihong had already prepared for the worst. And Yan Beihong had always been a man who lived and died in peace. He wasn't someone who cared about his own life or death.
However, that place was too far away. Not only did Miao Yi not know what was going on over there, but he was also too far away to help. It would be fine if he had the time to deal with the situation, but he wouldn't be able to find anyone in time to save them. Hence, he couldn't help Yan Beihong right now. All he could do was hope that Yan Beihong could successfully escape into the Misty Star Seas. All he could do was sit here and wait for news from Yan Beihong.
Upon receiving Pei Mo's report, the Heavenly Court's forces immediately got into action. The forces stationed at the outskirts of the Misty Star Seas quickly moved to intercept Yan Beihong's escape route based on the news from their superiors. With Pei Mo's constant updates, they could accurately intercept Yan Beihong.
The vast nebula wasn't a true nebula, but dust particles. Dust particles that glowed faintly under the refraction of light. A large area of dust particles hovered in the starry sky, forming a hazy white mass that resembled a vast nebula.
Just as Yan Beihong was about to reach them, tens of thousands of troops suddenly charged out from the cloud of dust. They formed a dense formation in front of them, and the commander of this group of troops was a commander. However, at this moment, there was no one dressed in purple armor, only golden armor.
Yan Beihong was a little taken aback. He was surprised that the Heavenly Court had reacted so quickly and sent people to intercept him so quickly.
He didn't know that the Heavenly Court had troops stationed here. Not to mention him, even Miao Yi didn't know about the situation here.
The situation before him made him a little suspicious. How could a bunch of Golden Lotus cultivators possibly stop him? As a precaution, he quickly donned the high-purity Red Crystal Armor Miao Yi had given him and charged forward with his saber in hand.
"Get ready!" someone shouted from within the army.
The tens of thousands of troops armed with sabers and spears quickly took out their Immortal Binding Ropes. However, to their surprise, the culprit didn't care and charged straight at them. It was as if he didn't care about the Immortal Binding Ropes' Transcendence Breaking ability and treated them like mere decorations. Soon, they realized where Yan Beihong's confidence came from.
"Release!" the commanding officer shouted.
Tens of thousands of Immortal Binding Ropes immediately shot out like a torrential downpour, almost instantly burying the enemy.
"Bang!" Yan Beihong roared angrily. His entire body shot out like an arrow, spinning his saber and slashing out in all directions like a blossoming flower.
A concentrated crackling sound reverberated through the starry sky. Wherever the saber pointed, the Immortal Binding Ropes would explode, unable to withstand the sharpness of the red crystal saber.
"Ahhh …" Cries of shock could be heard.
Amidst the densely packed Immortal Binding Ropes, a flower blossomed. The enemy had actually charged out with a single saber.
As soon as Yan Beihong charged out, he quickly swiped his saber across his body. He managed to defend his upper body, but he couldn't defend his lower half, which had already been bound tightly by the Immortal Binding Ropes. Swoosh! As the saber slashed across, the large pile of Immortal Binding Ropes binding his lower body exploded. Then, with a flash of the saber, Yan Beihong charged into the group of people blocking his way. Like a boulder thrown into water, waves of people flew everywhere.
"Ahhh …" Cries of agony could be heard.
The densely packed group of people couldn't dodge Yan Beihong's charge in time, and in an instant, hundreds of lives were lost.
With the formation in chaos, Yan Beihong charged out in a single breath, taking advantage of the opportunity to charge into the misty Misty Star Ocean.
Unexpectedly, just as he was about to reach the vast expanse of dust, ten streaks of light shot out from the dust at the same time. Ambush, Meteor Arrow!
Yan Beihong swung his arm, and a struggling Heavenly General stood in front of him.
He was someone who nurtured himself through battle, and his combat experience was even richer than Miao Yi's. When he saw the formation earlier, he already felt that something was wrong. There were no low-grade or high-grade Heavenly Generals among the Golden Armor Heavenly Generals, and he was already worried that it was a trap. When he first charged out, he took a few hostages as a precaution.
