325: Chapter 325 Chasing Each Other
"Wait."
Pavilion Master Liu Ruoyan spoke up.
Her gaze swept across the crowd of people nearby.
There are some things that aren't meant for just anyone to know.
For instance, these onlookers watching the excitement—they were a bit redundant.
"Scram."
As that single word left her mouth,
Pavilion Master Liu Ruoyan's expression became increasingly charming.
The people around them began to show hints of infatuation, their eyes staring blankly at Pavilion Master Liu Ruoyan; regardless of gender, there were no exceptions.
Immediately after, these people turned around in a daze and walked away.
Before long, everyone in the vicinity had left the area.
"Speak."
Pavilion Master Liu Ruoyan looked at Mu Qinglian and said.
She also wanted to know what had happened inside the treasury that would leave Gao Chi in such a state.
Out of twenty-five people, only eight had come out alive.
Of the two who entered from the Hongchen Pavilion, only one survived. The remaining three were individuals forced in by other Sects.
Those three old fellows wouldn't just shove people in for no reason, yet now all three of them were gone.
"Yes, Pavilion Master."
Mu Qinglian hesitated for a moment, inadvertently glancing at the Spirit Avatar before speaking.
She didn't dare not to speak; if she concealed anything, she would be finished.
Subsequently, Mu Qinglian recounted everything she had experienced and witnessed one by one.
When the three of them learned that the powerhouses of the Inverse Demon Cult, including the Nimo Sect Leader, were actually not dead and that their Divine Souls were hidden within the treasury,
the expressions of all three changed slightly.
One must understand that as far as they knew, the Inverse Demon Cult should have been completely annihilated.
At most, only a small portion of their Legacy would have remained.
But they never imagined that they were still alive, hiding within it.
Over eight thousand years—this far exceeded the Lifespan of a powerhouse in the Nirvana Realm.
Under normal circumstances, it was impossible for a Nirvana Realm cultivator to survive for eight thousand years.
Not only had the leader survived, but he had also survived alongside Other Shore Realm cultivators, existing within that high tower for over eight thousand years.
The significance of this was entirely different.
"The item is in your hands."
Gao Chi's gaze fell upon the Spirit Avatar, asking in a somewhat questioning tone.
His attitude toward the Spirit Avatar was relatively cautious.
After all, he had learned from Mu Qinglian that his soul fragment had died at the hands of the Nimo Sect Leader, and the Nimo Sect Leader had died at the hands of this person.
But that didn't mean the item would just be given to the Spirit Avatar.
"Senior Gao, this item is now my spoils of war. I assume a Senior like yourself wouldn't resort to blatant robbery?"
The Spirit Avatar said.
"This object should belong to my Shangji Sect."
Gao Chi said coldly.
Originally, his primary goal was Ancestor Qingxuan's Legacy.
But now the situation had changed. That high tower concerned everything about the Inverse Demon Cult.
He wanted it all.
"Little brother Gao, you're being a bit excessive."
Pavilion Master Liu Ruoyan glanced at Gao Chi, her gaze then shifting to the Spirit Avatar, scanning Lin Ming with an aggressive look.
"Little brother, if you are willing to share your gains with Big Sister, then Big Sister is willing to protect you."
In an instant, the atmosphere became tense.
"Seniors, for you two to snatch things from a Junior like me is a bit unseemly, don't you think?"
The Spirit Avatar said.
As he had expected, they were indeed shameless enough.
"Snatching? Little brother, how can you call sharing 'snatching'?"
A seductive voice rang in the Spirit Avatar's ear.
Their eyes met, and the moment they locked gazes, a Charm Technique was activated.
However, this Charm Technique was useless against the Spirit Avatar.
Meanwhile, Gao Chi had directly locked onto the Spirit Avatar.
"Since you two Seniors are so shameless, then this Junior will take his leave."
Before his voice had even faded,
the Spirit Avatar's figure had already vanished from the spot, fleeing into the distance.
The several people present didn't even have time to react to this scene.
Once they did react, Gao Chi was the first to give chase.
He turned into a streak of crimson light, pursuing the direction in which the Spirit Avatar had fled.
"Little brother is so naughty."
Pavilion Master Liu Ruoyan was stunned for a moment before also giving chase.
"Protect yourselves."
Master Yun Hua also joined in, closely following the pace of the other two.
Leaving the others behind.
Seeing this situation, Li Yunfan also knew this was a good opportunity to leave.
If he waited for those three to return, there was no telling what troublesome matters might be waiting for him.
He didn't want to be targeted by Nirvana Realm powerhouses, especially those from the Shangji Sect and Hongchen Pavilion.
As for Li Yunfan's departure, the others didn't pay much attention; he hadn't gained anything significant.
The main gains were on the Spirit Avatar; the others hadn't really obtained much of anything.
Therefore, his departure was basically only noticed by Lin Ming.
About an hour later, Master Yun Hua was the first to return.
"Lost the trail."
Master Yun Hua said directly.
The three of them had actually failed to catch that person, which was something that surprised Master Yun Hua.
Since she couldn't catch up, she came back.
If they didn't get Ancestor Qingxuan's Legacy, then so be it.
From the beginning, she hadn't felt that Lin Ming and the others would definitely be able to obtain Ancestor Qingxuan's Legacy.
After all, they weren't the only ones eyeing Ancestor Qingxuan's Legacy.
And knowing that the entire treasury was a trap, the fact that the five of them could come out alive was indeed a stroke of luck.
"Let's go."
Master Yun Hua said to the five.
The matter had ended, so there was no need for them to continue staying here.
"Sister Yun Hua, leaving in such a hurry? Don't you plan to chat with me a bit longer?"
Pavilion Master Liu Ruoyan had also returned to the area. She looked at Master Yun Hua and spoke.
"There is nothing for us to talk about."
Master Yun Hua looked coldly at Pavilion Master Liu Ruoyan and said.
"If you put it that way, I'll be heartbroken."
Pavilion Master Liu Ruoyan said, feigning a heartbroken expression.
"Sister Yun Hua, your two Disciples are quite outstanding."
Pavilion Master Liu Ruoyan changed the subject, looking at Lin Ming and Su Lianxue.
At this time, Master Yun Hua ignored Pavilion Master Liu Ruoyan and walked straight ahead.
The five of them followed behind Master Yun Hua.
Pavilion Master Liu Ruoyan quietly watched Master Yun Hua disappear from her sight, her originally charming smile vanishing at that moment.
"Let's go."
A thousand miles away.
Gao Chi's figure appeared here.
He had also been completely shaken off by the Spirit Avatar.
At this moment, his face was incredibly gloomy.
He looked in a certain direction, turned into a streak of crimson light, and left.
...
On a blood-red mountain.
A young man was lying on a chair.
Around him, more than ten beautiful women wearing revealing clothes were serving the young man.
"Old Ancestor."
An old man walked over. He kept his gaze lowered, speaking with a respectful tone.
"Speak."
The young man said nonchalantly.
"Wang Feng is dead."
The old man said.
"Investigate it."
The young man said.
"Yes."
After the old man responded, he turned and left.
From beginning to end, the old man did not dare to look up even once.
"Leave."
The young man suddenly said.
The beautiful women did not dare to linger and left the area.
Leaving the young man there alone.
