394: A desperate fight? A one-sided massacre
"Who exactly are you? Are the Three Sects' treasures on you?"
Xuan Bei stared at the man before him.
This person's transformation technique was extremely profound. If Yun Lan hadn't tested him beforehand, they probably wouldn't have known that Yun Han was a disguise.
Such illusion techniques were similar to those used by the person who stole the Three Sects' treasures. So, was the theft of their Three Sects' treasures done by the same person, or multiple people?
The young man's smile was sinister: "The dead don't need to know that much."
Lu Jin sneered: "You're only a Dao Repository Realm Peak, what are you being arrogant about?"
The young man glanced at Lu Jin and mocked: "Interesting! You're only a Dao Repository Realm Initial Stage yourself, yet you look down on a Dao Repository Realm Peak. Where does this sense of superiority come from? Is it just because you're one of The Holy Courtyard's Disciples?"
"You..."
Lu Jin's expression froze, unable to retort.
The young man looked at Xie Weilou and Chu Yicai, saying playfully: "The only ones here who can fight are the two of you, but unfortunately, that's all!"
With a wave of his hand, a three-meter-tall metal demon puppet instantly appeared beside him. The demon puppet's aura was not weak, reaching the Profound Appearance Realm Late Stage.
"Profound Appearance Realm Late Stage?"
Chu Yicai stared at the demon puppet, a look of apprehension in his eyes.
Even with his sword soul attached, he would struggle to contend with a Profound Appearance Realm Late Stage opponent.
Moreover, he had just used the attachment once, and it would be difficult for him to perform a second sword soul attachment in a short period, otherwise his body simply couldn't withstand it.
"Next, I'll send you on your way."
The young man's face was full of wicked smiles, and he simply waved his hand.
"Roar!"
The demon puppet let out a roar, a bloody light shot into the sky, forming a power barrier that sealed off everyone's retreat.
Chu Yicai quickly took out a pill and swallowed it. He glanced at the surrounding power barrier, then looked at Jing Qiu and the others: "The retreat has been sealed, we can only fight to the death. Come with me and attack."
After speaking, he immediately charged at the demon puppet with his sword.
Jing Qiu and the others also didn't hesitate, all making their moves.
"Fighting to the death? It's merely a one-sided slaughter."
The young man's expression was mocking.
"Roar!"
The demon puppet took a step, its oppressive aura completely erupting. With a single punch, the fist-print exploded, and demonic energy surged, instantly engulfing Chu Yicai and the others.
Boom!
A series of explosions rang out, and within a thousand meters, everything was instantly leveled. Numerous pavilions turned to dust, dirt flew, and thick smoke billowed.
Chu Yicai and the others were sent flying over a hundred meters by a single punch, with wounds all over their bodies and blood spilling from their mouths, clearly severely injured.
"Senior Brother Chu, what do we do next?"
Shen Tu looked at Chu Yicai with a solemn expression.
"We can only fight to the death."
Chu Yicai took a deep breath, and the Dragon Slaying Sword shimmered with a rich, eerie glow.
"Kill! Leave no one alive."
The young man's face twisted into a ferocious smile.
"Roar!"
The demon puppet roared, charging forward again.
"......"
Just as everyone was about to attack, Xie Weilou waved his sleeve, and a long blade beneath his feet instantly shot towards the demon puppet.
Rip!
The demon puppet's head was instantly pierced through, a gush of blood spurted out, and a large hole appeared.
"Roar!"
The demon puppet's body trembled, and it stumbled back several steps, its body constantly struggling, appearing extremely painful.
Xie Weilou moved, instantly appearing behind the demon puppet. He grabbed the long blade and swung it back, delivering a downward slash.
Puff!
The blade energy sliced down vertically, and the demon puppet's body was immediately split into two halves, blood splattering out. It was directly destroyed, and the surrounding power barrier also dissipated.
"This..."
This sudden turn of events left Chu Yicai and the others stunned.
"He... he's actually this strong..."
Jing Qiu stared blankly at Xie Weilou.
Previously, she had seen Xie Weilou slaughtering all sides, even able to kill a Dao Repository Realm Peak, and thought he was already formidable enough.
She never expected him to now easily kill a Profound Appearance Realm Late Stage demon puppet, which made it hard for her to believe.
"So strong... Fan Shidi is so strong..."
Shen Tu's eyes showed a look of shock.
"......"
Lu Jin's body trembled, feeling somewhat uneasy.
Before, he seemed to have been quite sarcastic towards Xie Weilou.
Now, thinking back, every word he said was leading him down the path of death.
"Too terrifying!"
Xuan Bei and the others looked at Xie Weilou with faces full of shock. The Holy Courtyard's Disciples, each one more terrifying than the last.
After killing the corpse puppet, Xie Weilou looked at the young man with an indifferent expression.
"You..."
The young man's expression changed in alarm, and he turned to flee.
Rip!
The long blade in Xie Weilou's hand instantly shot out.
Before the young man could react, his head was pierced through by the blade, his soul was utterly destroyed, and he perished.
"......"
Xie Weilou extended his hand, and the young man's storage ring flew to him. He wiped away the Restriction on it, opened the storage ring, and four items flew out.
A seven-colored copper plate, a cold pearl, a pink furnace, and a black ghost bell.
Xie Weilou looked at Xuan Bei and the others, gently waving his hand. Except for the ghost bell, the other three items flew forward: "See if these are the items your sects lost."
"Indeed, these are the items our sects lost."
Xuan Bei and the others immediately nodded.
The Seven Thought Plate, the Yin Spirit Pearl, and the Profound Desire Furnace were precisely the treasures their Three Sects had lost.
Xie Weilou put away the black ghost bell and said calmly: "The Three Sects' items have now been returned to their rightful owners, and our mission is complete."
"Naturally!"
Xuan Bei and the others immediately put away the three items.
"Our Three Sects also have some things to give to the four Daoist friends."
Then they each took out some items, which flew towards Xie Weilou and the other three, with each person receiving a share.
"......"
Xie Weilou also didn't stand on ceremony, decisively accepting these items.
Inside were cultivation techniques, but they were certainly just ordinary ones. What he was most interested in was Tianyin Temple's inheritance method.
Xie Weilou looked at Xuan Bei and the others: "Tomorrow, we go to Evil God Lake!"
Xuan Bei and the others were stunned for a second, then overjoyed again, immediately saying: "Good!"
They had thought Xie Weilou would leave after saying the mission was complete, but they didn't expect him to still want to go to Evil God Lake. Having such an unfathomable strong person accompany them was naturally the best.
Xie Weilou looked at Shen Tu: "Senior Brother Shen Tu, this Yin Corpse Sect probably still has some good things. Go search for them."
"Uh... alright!"
After Shen Tu reacted, he immediately flew into the distance. The Yin Corpse Sect was considered wiped out, so the treasury resources naturally couldn't be overlooked.
Chu Yicai looked at Xie Weilou, cupped his fists, and asked: "I am Chu Yicai from Rotten Wood Peak. May I ask who this Junior Brother is?"
Clearly, he had never seen the person before him, which made him somewhat curious.
This person's cultivation seemed to be only Dao Repository Realm Initial Stage, yet he could kill a Profound Appearance Realm Late Stage, so he must have hidden his cultivation.
Among the younger generation of The Holy Courtyard's Disciples, it wasn't that there were no Profound Manifestation Realm cultivators, but those few were all on the Dragon-Tiger Rankings, and he knew them. However, he didn't recognize this one before him.
Xie Weilou smiled faintly: "Thunder Peak, Fan Wei!"
"Fan Wei?"
Chu Yicai's face showed a thoughtful expression. This was an unfamiliar name; he had no impression of it whatsoever.
Jing Qiu, on the other hand, stared at Xie Weilou, a hint of contemplation in her eyes. For some reason, she suddenly thought of someone from Thunder Peak...
