258: Chapter 258 Is there internal support within the pavilion?

Su Changge heard Willow's pleading voice.

His heart skipped a beat instantly.

Had Willow been discovered?

He rushed to the courtyard gate immediately.

He slapped the courtyard gate and said loudly,

"What is all this commotion outside?"

The sounds of hitting and cursing outside the gate stopped instantly.

The respectful voice of a Mountain Guard Disciple drifted in.

"Replying to Senior, it's nothing. Just an ignorant little girl who did something wrong; we are teaching her a lesson."

Willow's voice, thick with tears, rang out again.

"Senior, save me! I didn't do anything wrong!"

Su Changge's brow furrowed.

Willow was his only insider help.

She couldn't be allowed to die like this.

He suppressed the panic in his heart.

The aura around him turned cold instantly.

His voice carried an indisputable authority.

"Bring her here. I want to ask her what she did wrong."

The Mountain Guard Disciple's voice sounded troubled.

"Senior, this is an internal matter of our Jade Cauldron Pavilion. We wouldn't want to trouble you with it."

"Internal matter?"

Su Changge let out a cold laugh.

With a thought,

He activated the special effect of the great dao golden lotus.

Five hundred emotion points were deducted.

Dazzling golden light instantly lit up around Su Changge.

Nine-petaled golden lotuses rose from beneath his feet one after another.

The dense Dao Rhyme could be felt even through the courtyard gate.

Su Changge's voice drifted out past the gate,

Carrying a cold pressure.

"When did my person become an internal matter of your Jade Cauldron Pavilion?"

The Mountain Guard Disciples outside the gate instantly felt that terrifying Dao Rhyme.

Their legs turned weak with fear.

With a 'thud,' they knelt on the ground.

"Immortal Venerable, forgive us! Immortal Venerable, forgive us!"

The Mountain Guard Disciples hurriedly brought Willow over.

Through the gate, Willow's sobbing could be heard clearly.

"Senior! Save me!"

Su Changge spoke indifferently.

"Release her. From now on, if anyone dares to touch her, they will have to answer to me."

The Mountain Guard Disciples nodded repeatedly in fear.

"Yes, yes, yes! We lowly ones will never dare to touch Miss Willow again!"

Su Changge listened to the Mountain Guard Disciples' voices.

He also heard Willow's sobbing gradually subside.

Only then did he withdraw the special effect.

The golden light and lotuses around him vanished without a trace instantly.

Su Changge leaned against the courtyard gate.

His heart was racing.

[Fortunately, the special effect is intimidating enough, otherwise Willow would be dead for sure.]

He had just spent five hundred emotion points to trade for Willow's life.

It was worth it.

Willow was his only insider help.

With Willow around, his chances of escaping were much greater.

After a moment,

Willow's tearful voice came from outside the gate.

"Senior... thank you, Senior, for saving this Servant Girl."

Su Changge spoke indifferently.

"No need for thanks. I ask you, why were they beating you just now?"

Willow's voice paused.

She said tearfully,

"They said I stole things from the Pavilion, and also said I... leaked the Pavilion's secrets."

Su Changge's heart skipped a beat.

So the matter of leaving the note really had been discovered?

He spoke indifferently,

"Was it you who left the note?"

Willow's voice stopped instantly.

A full half-minute passed.

Only then did Willow say tearfully,

"Yes... it was this Servant Girl who left it."

"Senior, Pavilion Master Li really intends to use you as a sacrifice!"

"The sacrificial rite tomorrow at dawn is to kill you and sacrifice you to the teleportation Formation!"

Willow's voice was filled with terror.

She spilled everything out.

It turned out that Li Changfeng's teleportation Formation had completely broken down as early as half a month ago.

Repairing a Cross-Domain Teleportation Array required a Cultivator with pure Origin as a sacrifice.

When Su Changge first arrived at the Lingxu Wasteland, he had been targeted by Li Changfeng.

Li Changfeng discovered that Su Changge's cultivation was unfathomable and his Origin was terrifyingly pure.

He perfectly met the requirements for the sacrifice.

That was why he invited Su Changge to the Jade Cauldron Pavilion and confined him in the Qingwei Courtyard.

He was just waiting for the sacrificial rite to kill Su Changge for the sacrifice.

"Senior, please escape quickly!"

Willow's voice was tearful.

"Pavilion Master Li has already prepared everything. He will come to take you to the Altar tomorrow at dawn!"

After hearing Willow's words,

The suspicions in Su Changge's heart were completely confirmed.

They really were going to use him as a sacrifice.

He suppressed the panic in his heart.

He spoke indifferently,

"Why should I escape? Against a piece of trash like Li Changfeng?"

He deliberately put on an unfathomable appearance.

It was to make Willow believe in his strength more.

So she would be willing to help him escape.

As expected.

Willow, outside the gate, was instantly stunned.

After a moment,

Willow's voice carried admiration.

"Senior is so powerful, you definitely aren't afraid of Pavilion Master Li, right?"

Su Changge spoke indifferently.

"That is natural. I'm just too lazy to lower myself to his level."

He paused.

He spoke as if casually,

"You just said Li Changfeng wants to repair a Cross-Domain Teleportation Array?"

Willow said hurriedly,

"Yes! Pavilion Master Li has saved up ten years of resources just to repair the Cross-Domain Teleportation Array and go to the Central Province to find Opportunity!"

"As long as Senior is sacrificed, the teleportation Formation can be repaired!"

Su Changge raised an eyebrow.

So it was to go to the Central Province?

For the sake of Opportunity, he actually dared to use an Immortal Venerable-level existence as a sacrifice?

That dog Li Changfeng really has a lot of nerve.

Su Changge spoke as if casually,

"How much manpower does your Pavilion Master have right now?"

"How many people are guarding the Altar?"

Willow said hurriedly,

"There are over three hundred Disciples in the Pavilion in total, as well as eight Elders, all at the Golden Core Stage."

"At the Altar, there are a hundred Disciples guarding it, and two Elders presiding."

"Pavilion Master Li's cultivation is at the Late Nascent Soul Stage; no one in the entire Jade Cauldron Pavilion can beat him."

Su Changge's mind quickly calculated.

Over three hundred Disciples? Eight Elders? Li Changfeng is at the Late Nascent Soul Stage?

He, at the Qi Refining First Layer, definitely couldn't win a fight.

He could only rely on special effects to bluff.

And he had to rely on Willow's help.

Su Changge spoke indifferently.

"Willow, do you want to leave the Jade Cauldron Pavilion?"

Willow's voice paused.

It carried surprise.

"Senior... you want to take this Servant Girl with you?"

Su Changge spoke indifferently.

"Yes, as long as you do one thing for me, I will take you away from the Jade Cauldron Pavilion."

"In the future, I will ensure your cultivation Breakthroughs to Nascent Soul, or even Soul Transformation, alright?"

Willow's voice was instantly filled with pleasant surprise.

"Really? Senior is really willing to take this Servant Girl away?"

"This Servant Girl is willing! No matter what Senior asks me to do, I am willing!"

A smile curled at the corner of Su Changge's mouth.

Settled.

Willow was indeed willing to help him.

He spoke indifferently,

"I want you to help me get something."

"Can you get Li Changfeng's jade token for entering and exiting the Formation?"

Willow's voice paused.

It carried difficulty.

"Pavilion Master Li's jade token is always on him; this Servant Girl can't even touch it."

Su Changge frowned.

Can't touch it?

Then what?

He paused,

And said again,

"Then what is needed to destroy the suppressive object at the formation core?"

Willow said,

"This Servant Girl doesn't know, but I heard the Elders say that the soul nurturing stake at the formation core can only be burned away by extreme yang fire."

"In the Pavilion's Pill Refining Room, there is Solar Essence Fire, which is specifically used for Alchemy."

Su Changge's eyes lit up.

Solar Essence Fire?

As long as he got the Solar Essence Fire, he could burn away the soul nurturing stake at the formation core?

The Formation would be broken?

He said hurriedly,

"Can you get the Solar Essence Fire?"

Willow thought for a bit.

She said,

"I can! This Servant Girl is responsible for delivering medicinal ingredients to the Pill Refining Room; I can enter the Pill Refining Room."

"But the Solar Essence Fire is all kept in special fire jade bottles; I can only get one small bottle."

"Is that enough?"

Su Changge said hurriedly,

"Enough! More than enough!"

As long as there was Solar Essence Fire, he could burn away the soul nurturing stake.

Once the Formation was broken, they could escape!

A strong hope rose in Su Changge's heart.

He said hurriedly,

"Bring the Solar Essence Fire to me tonight, alright?"

"As long as you bring the fire, I will take you away from the Jade Cauldron Pavilion."

Willow said hurriedly,

"Okay! This Servant Girl will definitely bring the fire to Senior tonight!"

Su Changge's hanging heart finally settled.

With Willow's help to get the Solar Essence Fire,

There was hope for breaking the Formation.

He just wanted to tell Willow a few more things to watch out for.

Outside the gate, Li Changfeng's voice suddenly rang out.

"Willow? What are you doing here?"

Su Changge's heart skipped a beat instantly.

Why had Li Changfeng come?

Hadn't he just left?

Willow's voice was instantly filled with terror.

"Pa-Pavilion Master, this Servant Girl came to ask if Senior had any instructions."

Li Changfeng's voice carried a chill.

"Oh? How come I seemed to hear that you were going to help Senior get something?"

A layer of cold sweat instantly broke out on Su Changge's back.

Li Changfeng had actually heard them?
