In the starry sky, Chu Zhu and Zhou Chuang walked side by side, talking and laughing as they flew toward the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea.
At a certain moment, he suddenly turned his head and saw two figures flying toward him.
At first, Chu Zhu didn't pay much attention to them. Such coincidental encounters were very common in the Ten Thousand Elephant Galaxy, just like his encounter with Zhou Chuang.
However, he soon realized that something was wrong because these two people were rushing straight toward him. This was obviously not normal.
Chu Zhu hurriedly focused his vision, trying to see their faces. However, at this moment, magic power suddenly surged beside him. When he turned his head, he saw Zhou Chuang, who had been talking and laughing with him just a moment ago, slamming his palm toward him. Magic power surged from the center of his palm, and a spell technique rumbled.
Chu Zhu's mind was sharp, and he instantly realized that his encounter with Zhou Chuang was a trap. This guy was in cahoots with the newcomers, and he had deliberately approached him with ulterior motives.
He couldn't figure out how he had offended Zhou Chuang to make him attack him so viciously.
With no time to think, Chu Zhu hurriedly summoned a defensive magic treasure. Although he hurriedly blocked Zhou Chuang's sneak attack, he was still a little embarrassed. He shouted, "Zhou Chuang, you bastard, I think you don't want Four Corner Island anymore!"
This was clearly a threat. Four Corner Island hadn't been in operation for a long time. No matter how intricate the defensive formation was, it couldn't be very strong without enough accumulation. If Baiyue Island wanted to attack Four Corner Island, it wouldn't end well.
Chu Zhu didn't know who he had offended, so he could only intimidate Zhou Chuang and make him feel apprehensive.
However, Zhou Chuang wasn't moved at all. After taking advantage of the opportunity to launch a sneak attack, he madly blasted spell technique after spell technique, forcing Chu Zhu to defend himself.
Both of them were late-stage Moon Jade Realm cultivators. One was unprepared, and the other was scheming. Chu Zhu immediately suffered a great loss.
However, it was impossible for Zhou Chuang to kill Chu Zhu with such a sneak attack. If they fought one-on-one, when Chu Zhu recovered, it would be a fierce battle.
However, Lu Ye and his servant were already closing in.
Chu Zhu finally got a clear look at their faces.
"It's you!" Chu Zhu was shocked. He didn't know how he had offended the Three World Island, but now he knew that it was the Three World Island who had plotted against him!
He had seen Ma Shangsi and Lu Ye before, because in the previous operation, he and that Junior Brother Wang had attacked Tang Jun together. In the end, Tang Jun had survived with the protection of the red talisman, and Lu Ye had rushed over and killed that Junior Brother Wang. As for him, he had been delayed by Ma Shangsi, and had been unable to help. When he had sensed that Junior Brother Wang had died in battle, he had immediately fled.
But … it didn't make sense. They had come and gone in a hurry last time and hadn't left any traces behind. Moreover, they hadn't heard anything at all. How did the Three World Island keep an eye on them?
The past two months had been peaceful, and they had thought that Three World Island knew nothing about Bai Yue's situation. But now, it seemed that they had long known that Bai Yue had acted in secret.
Yes, Zhou Chuang!
The Three World Island was connected to Four Corner Island, and Zhou Chuang also recognized them. Therefore, the Three World Island had already locked onto Bai Yue two months ago. They didn't make any movements these days just to numb them.
This time, they had been ordered to leave the island and head to the Yi Yuan Realm, and they had seized this opportunity.
In an instant, Chu Zhu understood the whole story, and he realized that he was in a bad situation this time.
Ma Shangsi had already rushed over, and a sea of blood spread out, directly enveloping Zhou Chuang and Chu Zhu.
Although Chu Zhu was startled, he didn't panic. Because he had escaped from Ma Shangsi's sea of blood before, he was currently tangling with Zhou Chuang while circulating his magic power in all directions, trying to reproduce the technique he had used that day.
In the end, he was surprised to find that the sea of blood this time was somewhat different from the last time. It was more viscous, more stable … Even with his techniques, he couldn't break free from the sea of blood's shackles.
In terms of cultivation, Ma Shangsi was slightly higher than Chu Zhu. Although Yue Yao's peak was also in the late stage, her limit was still close to the sunshine level.
Last time, Chu Zhu was able to escape mainly because of Ma Shangsi. Back then, in order to save Old Tang, Lu Ye had made Ma Shangsi explode her precious blood to activate the Blood Escape Technique. In a short period of time, she had expended too much of her vitality, and she couldn't unleash her full strength at all. This gave Chu Zhu a chance to escape.
This time, it was different. Not to mention that Ma Shangsi didn't expend any energy, just Zhou Chuang alone was enough to tie him down. With the two of them working together, it was impossible for Chu Zhu to escape from the sea of blood again.
The three Yue Yaos fought fiercely in the sea of blood. Their magic power vibrated endlessly, and the sea of blood surged and boiled.
Chu Zhu knew that he was most likely doomed this time. His face was full of unwillingness, but there was nothing he could do.
All of a sudden, he took out his strongest defensive magic treasure to protect his body. Then, he quickly took out his musical notes!
He wasn't asking for help. At this time, it was definitely too late to ask for help from Baiyue Island. He took out his musical note to send a message to Baiyue Island so that Yu Huan and the others could be on guard.
Seeing the musical note in his hand, Zhou Chuang immediately saw through his thoughts. He shouted in a low voice, "This is bad. Stop him!"
He was also afraid that today's matter would be leaked. Four Corner Island and Baiyue Island weren't far apart. If today's matter was leaked, Four Corner Island's situation wouldn't be too good in the future.
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Chuang's heart suddenly trembled. This was because, not far from him, an extremely sharp aura suddenly erupted. Even a late-stage Yue Yao like him couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine.
Then, in the boundless sea of blood, a dazzling saber light flashed. This saber light seemed to be able to split the sea of blood into two. Even Zhou Chuang's vision was cut off.
When he returned to his senses, he heard Chu Zhu's muffled groan. He raised his head and looked over. His face was filled with shock, because the defensive magic treasure Chu Zhu had summoned earlier had already shattered. Even the arm that held the musical note had been directly cut off.
The severed arm was quickly swept away by the whirlpool of the sea of blood, disappearing without a trace.
Zhou Chuang suddenly turned his head and saw Lu Ye, who had been standing quietly to the side since the beginning of the battle. At this moment, the saber at his waist had already been unsheathed. He held the saber in his right hand at an angle.
Zhou Chuang's eyelids twitched.
He was certain that the saber strike just now was Lu Ye's masterpiece.
However … could an early-stage Yue Yao really break a late-stage Yue Yao's defensive magic treasure with a single saber strike and cut off his arm?
He had experienced the power of the defensive magic treasure. Even he couldn't break it in a short time. How did Lu Ye do it?
If he hadn't been on guard against such a saber strike, would he still be alive?
Lu Ye should have just become a Yue Yao not long ago. How could he be so powerful? However, Zhou Chuang soon realized that the saber strike was probably a secret technique. It was a secret technique that put a huge burden on the user. At this moment, Lu Ye's saber-wielding right hand was trembling.
Even so, it gave Zhou Chuang an indescribable shock.
The Saber Slash was indeed powerful. This was Lu Ye's third time using it. However, even with the previous two experiences, he still couldn't perfectly control the saber strike.
To put it simply, he was no longer able to control his saber once it was unleashed. Whether this saber strike would kill Chu Zhu or cut off one of his arms, it would all depend on luck.
Fortunately, he was lucky this time. Chu Zhu didn't die, but his arm holding the musical note was cut off. As a result, he couldn't send a message outside.
The Saber Slash alone might not have been able to achieve this because Chu Zhu had activated the defensive magic treasure's power before Lu Ye had attacked.
However, even with the Mountain Pan Saber, the defensive magic treasure couldn't block it.
When the Mountain Pan Saber was a spirit treasure, it only had the power of Fang. The wound caused by the saber would be entangled by the power of Fang, making it difficult to heal.
However, after becoming a magic treasure, the Mountain Pan Saber had gained another characteristic. It was especially destructive to defensive magic treasures.
That was the result of the saber strike.
Chu Zhu growled in pain. His face was pale, but he continued to resist.
Lu Ye calmed down the surging Qi and blood around him and charged forward with his saber. At the same time, he transmitted his voice, "Fellow Daoist Zhou, retreat!"
Hearing this, Zhou Chuang immediately retreated from the battlefield. Lu Ye took his place.
In the current situation, Chu Zhu was completely under his control. He couldn't do anything. Moreover, Lu Ye's strength was too terrifying. Zhou Chuang naturally didn't worry about any accidents.
He originally thought that Lu Ye wanted to kill Chu Zhu personally to vent his anger.
However, he soon realized that something was wrong. In the following battle, not only did he not interfere, but Ma Shangsi also didn't interfere. She only maintained the sea of blood and created an advantageous battle environment for Lu Ye.
Lu Ye had no intention of killing Chu Zhu as quickly as possible. Instead, he kept tormenting Chu Zhu. Every time his figure flashed, he would inflict some non-fatal wounds on Chu Zhu.
Chu Zhu was very strong-willed and unyielding. If it were other cowardly cultivators, they would have already begged for mercy. However, he didn't. In the face of such treatment, he could only curse and yell that he would rather die than be humiliated.
Lu Ye's expression was indifferent. He didn't move at all. It was as if he was determined to slowly torture Chu Zhu to death.
Even Zhou Chuang couldn't bear to see this. However, he didn't try to persuade Lu Ye. If Baiyue Island attacked Three World Island, then Lu Ye and Chu Zhu would be enemies. No matter how cruel one was to an enemy, it wouldn't be excessive.
However, from Lu Ye's expression, it didn't seem like he was deliberately torturing Chu Zhu. Thus, he couldn't figure out what Lu Ye was doing.
After an hour, Chu Zhu's entire body was covered in wounds. His entire body was extremely weak.
A late-stage Yue Yao shouldn't be in such a state. However, the wounds caused by the Mountain Pan Saber couldn't heal. Moreover, Ma Shangsi occasionally used the Blood Tracing Technique … It was already a sign of his tenacity that he didn't die. However, at this moment, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he was better off dead.
Lu Ye stopped attacking and slowly walked to Chu Zhu. He looked at him calmly and threatened, "Don't worry, I won't kill you for now. I'll bring you to Baiyue Island and cut you into pieces outside. I'll let Yu Huan and the others know the consequences of offending Three World Island!"

Acute gastroenteritis. He was tossed around in the hospital for half a day. He even had an allergic reaction when he was on a drip. In the end, his butt was injected with an anti-allergic medicine. How miserable.
Today's update was over. He was really exhausted.
