179: Chapter 179 Elder of the Yinshan Sect?

The terrifying blood-red array patterns beneath the lobby floor tiles were swept by the golden light emitted from the compass, as if they had encountered their nemesis.

They didn't even last half a second before being completely extinguished.

The sinister wind that had been raging in the lobby also stopped.

The wealthy tycoons on the ground had originally been convulsing in pain.

Now, they suddenly realized that their bodies no longer hurt.

The terrifying feeling of emptiness from having their lifespan forcibly drained away also stopped.

The temperature in the lobby began to slowly rise.

A chubby coal boss scrambled up from the ground using his hands and feet.

He looked at his withered, wrinkled hands; although he had aged ten years, at least his life had been saved.

He raised his head and looked directly toward the main table.

Su Yun was standing there, holding a glowing, incomplete compass in his hand, without even catching his breath.

The coal boss didn't say a word; he scrambled over to Su Yun's side.

"Master Su! Save me!"

With someone taking the lead, the remaining dignitaries all reacted.

They no longer cared about the face of the richest man or the dignity of business tycoons.

Hundreds of prominent figures in Jiangcheng all crowded toward the open space behind Su Yun.

Everyone was a smart person.

The main gate was sealed shut and they couldn't get out.

Now, the only person in the entire venue who could counter that evil array was Su Yun.

Zhao Donghai and his daughter, Zhao Xiaoman, were still in a daze.

They were pushed to the very center by this group of people frantically trying to save their lives.

In less than half a minute.

The space behind Su Yun was packed densely with people.

He had become the sole pillar of support for the hundreds of people present.

Zhao Donghai wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and spoke with lingering fear.

"Mr. Su, has this Life-Stealing Evil Array been broken by you?"

Su Yun casually put the bagua compass into his pocket.

"I only cut off the array's suction."

"I haven't dealt with the main culprit yet."

At this moment, Ma Tengfei's face on the main stage was extremely ugly.

Just a moment ago, he had spread his arms, waiting for the lifespans and fortune of those hundreds of people to flow into his body to extend his life.

But after waiting for a long time, he didn't get anything.

He had originally felt a bit of strength in his body, but now that severe weakness had surged back.

His internal organs were tearing with pain.

Ma Tengfei raised his head in a fit of rage and cursed at the second-floor control room.

"Wu Ming! What on earth are you doing!"

"I spent so much money to hire you, and this is what you show me?"

"Why did the array stop! Hurry up and continue draining their lives for me!"

After cursing at the second floor, Ma Tengfei turned his head and stared fixedly at Su Yun.

He knew it was all this young man causing trouble.

Ma Tengfei pointed at Su Yun and shouted at the ten bodyguards nearby holding stun batons.

"What are you all standing there for!"

"Go! Kill him!"

"Whoever can cripple that brat, I will immediately transfer ten million to him!"

Generous rewards attract brave men.

Upon hearing "ten million," the eyes of those ten bodyguards in black suits turned red.

They tightened their grips on the stun batons crackling with blue electricity and rushed directly toward Su Yun.

This group of people were all retired mercenaries, and their fighting styles were extremely ruthless.

The bald, brawny man charging at the front raised his stun baton and thrust it directly toward Su Yun's temple.

If that hit, he would either die or become a vegetable.

The wealthy merchants behind Su Yun screamed in fear and shrank back.

Zhao Xiaoman was so scared that she covered her eyes.

Su Yun stood where he was, not even moving an inch.

His face was full of speechlessness.

This group of people really didn't care about their lives for the sake of money.

Su Yun reached his left hand into his Taoist robe pocket and pinched out a yellowed talisman paper with two fingers.

This was a Lightning Attraction Talisman he had just drawn yesterday.

Su Yun locked his eyes on the bald man rushing over, flicked his wrist, and threw the yellow talisman out.

The yellow talisman ignited mid-air.

Immediately after, it turned into an extremely dazzling golden light.

"Bang!"

A loud bang echoed in the lobby.

The golden light slammed solidly into the bald man's chest.

The bald man, a two-hundred-plus-pound brute, had his feet lifted off the ground, and he flew backward.

He spat out a mouthful of blood in mid-air.

Then he crashed heavily into the pile of bodyguards behind him.

The impact of this blow was simply too great.

The three bodyguards following behind the bald man were knocked to the ground by him.

The four of them rolled into a ball and passed out completely, not even letting out a groan.

The remaining six bodyguards came to an abrupt halt.

They stopped in their tracks and looked at their companions on the ground, whose conditions were unknown.

Then they looked at Su Yun, who didn't even have a single hair out of place.

These six people were all scared out of their wits.

No matter how good ten million is, you need to be alive to spend it.

The six of them turned around with great tacit understanding and scampered back to Ma Tengfei's side.

They couldn't even hold the stun batons in their hands steadily.

Ma Tengfei was so angry that he cursed them as useless trash.

Just at this moment.

"Crash!"

The one-way glass of the second-floor control room shattered all over the floor.

Glass shards fell like rain onto the exhibit platform on the first floor.

That thin, withered old man wearing a grey cloth Taoist robe jumped down from above.

He landed extremely lightly and stood directly in front of Ma Tengfei.

It was the evil cultivator who was manipulating the array.

The old man stared at Su Yun with his cloudy, aged eyes.

"Good kid, no wonder you dared to ruin my good deeds."

"That was the talisman technique of an orthodox Taoist sect just now."

"To have such cultivation at such a young age, which famous mountain or river are you a disciple from?"

Su Yun looked at him coldly, too lazy to even reply.

The old man was ignored by Su Yun, and his anger flared up.

He straightened his back, his tone extremely arrogant.

"I am Wu Ming, an elder of the Yinshan Sect."

"I set up this situation today; if you're sensible, get out of here quickly."

"Otherwise, I won't let you walk out of this door!"

Su Yun rolled his eyes directly.

An elder of the Yinshan Sect, indeed.

These days, any Tom, Dick, or Harry dares to call themselves an elder.

Seeing Su Yun not speaking, Wu Ming thought Su Yun was scared.

He snorted coldly and made a move directly.

Wu Ming raised his right hand and bit his index finger until it bled.

Fresh blood flowed out.

He took out a pitch-black wooden plaque from his bosom.

Wu Ming pressed his bloody finger onto the wooden plaque and quickly drew a strange symbol.

The temperature in the lobby plummeted again.

The wealthy merchants hiding behind Su Yun shivered uncontrollably from the cold.

A large burst of black aura emerged from the wooden plaque.

The black aura twisted in mid-air, directly turning into several clawing and snarling black baleful auras.

This baleful aura carried extremely strong corrosiveness, making even the air stink.

Wu Ming pointed at Su Yun.

Several streams of black baleful aura rushed directly toward Su Yun's face.

The speed was extremely fast.

Su Yun stood where he was, chanting spells rapidly in his mouth.

"Heaven and Earth mysterious sect, root of all energy."

The Golden Light Spell was activated directly.

An extremely dazzling golden light shield lit up directly from Su Yun's body.

Enveloping his whole person inside.

Those streams of black baleful aura crashed head-on into the golden light shield.

"Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle!"

It was like cold water being splashed into a scalding hot wok of oil.

Emitting an extremely harsh corrosive sound.

The black baleful aura couldn't break the defense at all.

It was directly burned by the golden light, emitting bursts of white smoke.

In less than two seconds, it all turned into a pool of foul-smelling black water, falling to the ground without a sound.

Wu Ming watched as the baleful aura he had painstakingly refined disappeared just like that.

His eyeballs were almost popping out.

He took two steps back, his face full of disbelief.

Just as the two sides were in a standoff.

An extremely shrill scream suddenly came from the side.

Everyone turned their heads to look.

Chu Tianjiao was lying on the cold floor tiles.

The black patches on his arm were completely out of control.

The black spots followed his blood vessels and spread directly to his neck.

Most of his face had turned black and foul-smelling.

"Wah!"

Chu Tianjiao opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of foul black blood.

His whole body began to convulse violently.

Rolling his eyes, his limbs kicking wildly on the ground.

His breathing became extremely weak, barely able to draw breath.

This was clearly corpse poison attacking the heart, and he was about to breathe his last.
