98: My imagination is running wild; let's call for reinforcements!

On the other side, Ling Qingzhu moved like a streak of light through the intricate environment of Tiandu Imperial City.

Following that unsettling Devilish Qi, she frantically searched for Su Chen's whereabouts.

However, she couldn't find Su Chen, and that wicked Devilish Qi had vanished without a trace, like a clay ox entering the sea.

Just as she was fraught with anxiety and on the verge of despair...

Boom—!!!

In the direction of the city's east, a world-destroying energy fluctuation surged into the sky without warning, tearing through the night!

That wasn't the power of a Saint King, nor even something an ordinary Great Saint could unleash!

That aura made her Divine Soul tremble; it was the pressure belonging to a quasi-emperor weapon!

"Oh no!"

Ling Qingzhu's heart tightened. Without a second thought, her figure instantly turned into a cold bolt of lightning, racing toward the center of that energy storm!

When she reached the edge of the battlefield, even with her eternally frozen icy state of mind, she couldn't help but gasp.

Before her eyes, mountains and rivers were shattered, and the earth had turned to glass.

A bottomless giant pit lay across the wasteland, its edges as smooth as a mirror, as if a piece had been scooped out by a god with a spoon.

In the air, there remained the unwilling resentment of a fallen Great Saint and the Law fragments from the collision of quasi-emperor weapons that were enough to tear everything apart.

Tragic!

Utterly tragic!

For the sake of void immortal gold, several Great Saints had actually engaged in a bloody battle here, even using quasi-emperor weapons!

But... something was wrong!

Ling Qingzhu's cold eyes suddenly narrowed as a thought forced its way into her chaotic mind!

That Enchantress!

She was a forbidden existence whose Realm couldn't even be seen through!

If she wanted the void immortal gold, why would she need to do it this way?

With her strength, if she directly snatched it, who could stop her?

She wouldn't deign to get into a mess with this crowd over a single piece of immortal gold!

Therefore, this was all a facade!

Ling Qingzhu's train of thought became clearer than ever at this moment.

That Enchantress, the reason she kidnapped Su Chen, the reason she flaunted him at the auction, the reason she triggered the dispute between Wang Teng and that mysterious Great Saint... everything was a setup!

A shocking death trap she had personally laid out to deceive everyone!

The void immortal gold was the bait!

Wang Teng and those robbers were the pawns she used to muddy the waters!

And this world-destroying battle was the perfect smokescreen she had prepared for everyone!

Her true purpose, in this chaotic battlefield where everyone was seeing red, while everyone's attention was drawn by the quasi-emperor weapons, was to... silence Su Chen forever!

This thought, like ice from the Nine Heavens, instantly froze Ling Qingzhu's blood!

She finally understood!

Su Chen knew that Enchantress's secret, so she would never let him live!

But acting directly in front of the world would inevitably draw the Su Family's frantic retaliation.

That's why she planned all this!

On a battlefield where even Great Saints had fallen, the death of a Divine Son of the Su Family would be perfectly normal!

No one would suspect her!

Such a ruthless calculation! Such a poisonous heart!

"Su Chen..."

Ling Qingzhu's heart felt as if it were being squeezed hard by an invisible hand, the pain making it almost impossible for her to breathe.

Anxiety, fear, and endless regret flooded her reason like a cold tide.

She hated herself for being so stupid! Why did she only realize it now!

She hated herself for being so weak!

She was only in the Saint Realm!

On this battlefield where the power of quasi-emperor weapons ran rampant, she couldn't even get close, let alone save that idiot who was being silenced by the Enchantress?!

Despair!

An unprecedented sense of powerlessness caused her rock-solid Dao Heart to show signs of crumbling.

Go back and find the Elders of Yaochi?

It was too late! Distant water couldn't put out a nearby fire!

At the moment her mind was about to give way, a thought exploded in her head like a single bolt of lightning piercing the darkness!

There was one place that could save him!

There was one power that, upon hearing the news, would definitely move with the utmost speed, exhausting the entire clan's strength to turn this world upside down!

Everlasting Su Family!

In an instant, the confusion and despair in Ling Qingzhu's eyes completely faded away.

Replacing them was a madness and determination to risk everything!

She no longer hesitated and suddenly turned around!

She turned into a streak of light even faster than before. No longer searching aimlessly, she rushed toward the ancient Domain Gate in Tiandu Imperial City that could traverse hundreds of millions of miles across the Star Domain!

Direction—

Everlasting Su Family!

Su Chen, you idiot!

You better hold on for me!

Even if I have to risk damaging my dao foundation, I will invite your Su Family's Old Ancestor out of his coffin for you!
