Chapter 957: Extra: Immortal World (Fourteen)
Ming Xiu and Lou Mu Yan worked together to open a hole in the natural barrier and quickly entered with the spirit pets.
After entering the natural barrier, the green mist also dispersed lightly.
[BOOM BOOM!!]
There was sound of fighting ahead, and the fighting was so fierce that the entire surroundings felt as if it were shaking.
The two of them quickly rushed in that direction.
A stream gurgled in the mountains. Lou Mu Lan was half lying on the gravel beside the stream. His white brocade robe was dyed red with blood. Not far from him, there were more than a dozen people with blue and black faces lying on the ground.
There were also more than twenty corpses lying in front of them, as dead as could be.
A young man wearing dark green clothes had sinister eyes, and his voice was cold while looking at Lou Mu Lan, “Truly a peerless genius from Su Immortal Palace, able to kill so many of us even when poisoned.”
Lou Mu Lan raised his head, staring at the green-clothed man faintly, “You killed all the people from the Lu Clan and Shen Clan, pretending to be them to enter the small spiritual world to sneak attack me. It must be to provoke conflict among the various forces in Ling Su Immortal Realm so you can easily fish in troubled waters.”
Then he changed the issue: “Or after you kill me, you’ll blame it on other Immortal Realms. When the time comes where there’s conflict between the two parties, you lot can profit from it.”
The pupils of the green-clothed man constricted. He chuckled: “I really underestimated you. But no matter what the outcome is, you will never be able to walk out of the small spiritual world alive again. We will just watch how valued you are to Great Immortal Venerable Ling Su.”
Lou Mu Lan pressed his lips firmly together. He didn’t expect that the trip this time would become his own burial place when originally, he entered the small spiritual realm to find an opportunity to breakthrough to Honoured Venerable. His avatar, who was cultivating secretly in Ling Su Immortal Realm, had just been surrounded and killed by several people at Honoured Venerable cultivation base. If his main body was also destroyed, then he would truly be dead.
These people had arranged so carefully and even found the location of his avatar. They must have been planning and preparing for very long.
If he were to face these people alone, it wouldn’t be difficult for him and the pupils of Su Immortal Palace to escape, but the other party was proficient in gu poison and arrays, following them here and poisoning the surroundings.
This kind of poison could be cured if he was at Su Immortal Palace, but right now, he was missing two kinds of celestial herbs—it could be said the other party left out nothing.
“Do it.” The green-clothed man looked at Lou Mu Lan’s deeply furrowed brows and felt a little happy. Such a genius would die soon, falling in his hands.
The several people behind the man in green stood up, took out their magic tools, activated them, and attacked Lou Mu Lan and the others.
Lou Mu Lan’s entire body was weak and he was unable to use his celestial energy. There was no fear nor despair in his eyes, only regret and calmness as he prepared himself to be killed.
Suddenly, two flashes of sword lights struck out fiercely from the side, completely nullifying the power of the magic tools activated by the several people.
“Who? Get out!” The man in green didn’t expect that there would be an oriole behind. His mental energy before was constantly spread around and he didn’t find any auras.
Recalling the opponent’s methods, the green-clothed man and his people all looked wary.
Lou Mu Yan and Ming Xiu used their celestial energy, so there was no need to use the Invisibility Talisman to continue hiding. They walked out of the dense forest not far away.
The green-clothed man furrowed his brows when he saw the people, “Who are you? Why are you meddling in other people’s business?”
Before they came to Ling Su Immortal Realm, they had investigated the Su Immortal Palace and the several major clans and forces. They also had files on important figures, but he had never met these two people.
“Just passersby.” Lou Mu Yan folded her arms and said lazily.
“Humph, I advise you two not to meddle in other people’s business, otherwise don’t blame me for being rude.” The green-clothed man was still thinking about the identity of the two, and he gave a sinister warning.
But then he gradually discovered something wrong. Upon closer inspection, the facial features of the stunning woman opposite him were somewhat similar to Lou Mu Lan’s.
The sense of vigilance in his heart deepened. Could this woman be related to Lou Mu Lan? Otherwise, why did they not only look somewhat similar, but they also stopped them from killing Lou Mu Lan.
“These people cannot be let go, kill without mercy!” He secretly sent a telepathic message to the people behind him.
No matter whether the woman and man opposite had anything to do with Lou Mu Lan or not, since they dared to meddle and had seen everything, then they naturally couldn’t be let go.
Hearing the words of the man in green, the gazes of a thin, pale woman and a feminine man behind him sharpened, and the hands hidden in their sleeves kept changing.
Some white medicinal powder and a stream of transparent smoke quietly flowed out from their sleeves and headed towards the positions of Lou Mu Yan and Ming Xiu.
The corners of Lou Mu Yan’s lips curled up, with a hint of ridicule. She raised a hand, and a cluster of cyan-black flames emerged from her fingertips, playing with it.
A trace of black smoke spread silently along the surroundings and the medicinal powder and green smoke were quickly swallowed up by the black force.
“Cough cough…” The woman and man behind the man in green suddenly coughed violently.
The man in green furrowed his brows and asked: “What’s wrong?”
Right now, he had a bad feeling in his heart, as if something was out of his control.
The thin and pale woman clenched her neck tightly and struggled to spit out a few words, “Poison, she used poison.”
Then her eyes opened wide, looking up in the direction of Lou Mu Yan. She wanted to open her mouth to say something, but no sound came out. Feeling dizzy, she fell straight to the ground, lifeless.
The feminine man quickly took out a bottle of pills and poured it into his mouth. After a while, he collapsed to the ground, black blood spilling from the corners of his lips, aura weak, but his life was at least saved.
The man in green and the others were shocked when they saw this. He was about to continue asking the feminine man, but before he could speak, he suddenly felt a tightness in his chest, and his neck felt as if it was tightly strangled, unable to breathe.
Right now, he was like someone who was suffocating in the water and couldn’t swim. He could only cover his neck with his hands, with a look of horror on his face.
He used all his celestial energy to snatch the bottle from the hands of the feminine man behind him, poured the remaining pills into his mouth, and only then did he collapse to the ground as if he was dehydrated, but the feeling of suffocation was at least weakened.
“You… You poisoned us.” He looked at Lou Mu Yan with disbelief in his eyes and his voice was grim and hoarse with a hint of deterioration.
Lou Mu Yan chuckled, with a bewitching look on her beautiful face as she lightly parted her red lips: “I saw you lot having fun poisoning, so I also learnt from it.”
The spirit flame in her body had absorbed so many toxins, devoured and refined them, and she had long become invulnerable to hundreds of poisons. Her fire poison perfectly restrained these people’s gu poison.
The two who wanted to poison her and Ming Xiu were directly attacked by their own poison, poisoned even deeper, and the woman was weaker, hence why she was killed by the poison so quickly.
The people behind the man in green also fell to the ground. The stronger ones still had some breaths left, while the weaker ones had stopped breathing properly.
Hearing Lou Mu Yan’s words, the man in green wanted to go up and skin her, but unfortunately, he was paralysed on the ground, unable to move due to the poison, and he suppressed the panic in his eyes.
