280: Yao Wu's Death

Under the Second Order Talismans, Xu Tian and the Gu Master's bodies shimmered with spiritual light, revealing large areas of flesh and blood, their aura weak.

They resisted with all their might and barely survived.

Even so, they were still severely injured, their eyes staring at Zhou Luo in disbelief, completely not expecting the other party to have such a trump card.

"Hehe, is this your biggest reliance?" Xu Tian sneered.

Although she was severely injured, it wasn't fatal, and she still had the possibility of counterattacking, not to mention they had another companion.

Inside the room, an Old Man in a grey robe walked out holding an array plate. He frowned, staring intently at Zhou Luo opposite him.

And that Gu Master released a golden Gu. It was a living creature similar to a bird, its body covered in runes, its pair of crimson eyes flashing with enchanting strange light.

Xu Tian, on the other hand, took out a dark blue Talismans with her right hand, which emitted terrifying power. It was a top-grade Talismans.

In their eyes, Zhou Luo had already lost his trump card, and he was nothing more than a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

Zhou Luo's heart was like still water.

It seems the Joyful Union Sect only sent these three people. If there were others, they would have likely shown themselves when I released the Thunderclap Talisman just now.

Even if they didn't show themselves just now, they should have appeared to take me down in one go.

"Is it just the three of you?" he asked calmly.

"I alone can kill you." The grey-robed Old Man said coldly.

He hadn't made much of a move from beginning to end, nor was he affected by the Talismans, and was still in peak condition.

Although he was just an Array Master, he himself had a cultivation base of Qi Training stage, ninth level, so he had no fear.

Speaking of which, for the sake of killing someone in the Immortal City this time, the Joyful Union Sect really went all out, actually managing to invite two experts at Qi Training stage, ninth level and one at Qi Training stage, eighth level.

It was precisely because of this that the three of them felt they were more than capable of handling the other party.

The only unexpected thing was the Second Order Talismans.

But it didn't matter; having lost his biggest reliance, the other party was just fish on the chopping block.

Zhou Luo's mouth curved upwards.

Since everyone was here, there was no need to hold back.

His mind stirred slightly, and a white light flashed before him.

Meow—

The next second, Bai rushed out of the void and landed in front of the three people.

Looking at this little cat, completely white, a trace of confusion flashed in the eyes of the three.

"Deal with them," Zhou Luo ordered.

Bai's entire body emitted a burst of spiritual light, and under the light, its pair of crystal-clear eyes shone with dazzling brilliance.

A terrifying pressure crashed down, like a mountain smashing towards the three.

Before the three could react, they felt their bodies sink, and with a thud, they were all suppressed onto the ground.

They were dumbfounded, and a storm raged in their hearts.

A Second Order Spirit Beast!

The three never expected the other party to actually have a Second Order Spirit Beast.

How is this possible?

How could such a precious thing appear in his hands?

Moreover, that crushing level of power was even more terrifying than that of an ordinary Second Order Spirit Beast.

The three instantly felt boundless fear, yet under the pressure of the Second Order Spirit Beast, their bodies couldn't move, and they couldn't even manage to open their mouths to beg for mercy.

With this kind of dimensionality reduction strike, Bai could easily deal with them without even needing to use illusion power.

The rest was naturally left to Zhou Luo.

He walked towards the three calmly, raising the Suofeng Treasure Sword in his hand. In their terrified eyes, his hand rose and the sword fell.

Swish—

Heads were separated from bodies, leaving behind a large pool of blood.

He indifferently collected the storage bags from their bodies and released fierce flames to burn their three corpses on the spot.

With the concealment formation in place, the outside world likely wouldn't know what exactly happened here.

As for Bai, it had set its eyes on the golden Gu. It pounced over and was having a feast.

Without time to check the spoils of war, Zhou Luo quickly walked into the house.

The room was a mess, with even the corpses of various Gu, clearly having experienced a fierce fight.

He began searching room by room.

Soon, he found Yao Wu lying in a pool of blood.

At this moment, her face was deathly pale, completely devoid of color, blood was still overflowing from the corner of her mouth, and there wasn't a trace of vitality left in her body, as if she had already died.

Zhou Luo frowned.

The thing he was most worried about had still happened.

He quickly came before Yao Wu, only to see her pair of beautiful eyes dimly closed. There were sword marks all over her body, bleeding profusely, and the most fatal was the deep wound on her neck, which was shocking to behold.

It was clearly the work of that woman, Xu Tian.

Zhou Luo extended his right hand, releasing his spiritual sense, wanting to see if she was truly beyond saving.

Logically speaking, having lost so much blood, and her entire body being so cold, she should have been dead for sure.

But when Zhou Luo extended his spiritual sense, he was surprised to find that she seemed to have a sliver of vitality left.

His gaze fell on her chest. Under the contact of his spiritual sense, a faint light shimmered there, as if something was protecting her heart meridian.

He released a larger spiritual sense, and in his sight, a blood-red Gu suddenly appeared. It was lying on Yao Wu's heart, and its entire body was emitting a mysterious power.

Heart Protection Gu!

Zhou Luo recognized this Gu at a glance.

This was a First-Order top-grade Gu, extremely rare. It could release power to protect the heart meridian when a person was on the verge of Death, temporarily preserving a sliver of vitality.

She must have been busy contacting me after killing her, so she didn't check.

With this Gu present, Yao Wu still had a chance to survive for now.

But this chance was still very slim, especially since her whole body was already filled with Death energy.

As expected, Zhou Luo took out a Pill and put it into her mouth.

This was a healing Pill he had specially made, and it was even a top-grade Pill. Although it couldn't bring her back to life, it could heal external injuries and alleviate the Time of Death.

In addition to the Pills, he also took out a High Grade Talismans for healing and placed it on her chest.

The Talismans emitted faint green light, healing the injuries.

These external injuries could be healed, even the sword mark on her neck wasn't a major issue. The crucial point was that she had bled for too long, her internal vitality was depleted, and even her Qi Sea and Dantian had been damaged.

To recover, ordinary Pills definitely wouldn't work. At least a Second Order top-grade spirit elixir, or even Third-Order Pills, would be needed.

This was something Zhou Luo couldn't do. He held Yao Wu's wrist and found that she was completely in a state of a lamp running out of oil.

Wanting to awaken the vitality within her body was simply too difficult.

Moreover, she seemed to have been poisoned. The poison was eroding her body step by step. If not for the Heart Protection Gu, she would have probably died long ago.

Zhou Luo could resolve the poisoning, but the key was how to heal the injuries within her body.

Zhou Luo kept thinking.

He wasn't a Second-Order Alchemist. The only Second Order skills he possessed were in poisons and Talismans, but neither of these could help her at all.

Other than that, only a Foundation Establishment Expert making a move to treat her would be possible.

But this was completely unfeasible.

Not to mention that Zhou Luo didn't know any Foundation Establishment Expert, even if he did, would they necessarily choose to help?

He decisively rejected this idea. Then what other method was there?
