Disciple of the Martial Saint Tower
Mist curled around the entrance of the inner court. Two guards in white uniforms stood at the entrance made of white marble.
Swoosh!
The sound of something tearing through the air rang out and attracted the attention of the two guards.
"Who are you?
Stop right now! "One of the guards shouted as the veins on the back of his right hand that was holding onto the spear bulged.
Swoosh!
Lü Hantian suddenly stopped as his breathing became hurried. He anxiously said to the two guards, "Brothers, I'm Zhuowen's friend. I have an urgent matter to discuss with him. Can the two of you make an exception and let me in?"
The two guards looked at each other when they heard this. Both of them had strange expressions on their faces.
The two of them had naturally heard of the name Zhuowen. It could even be said that Zhuowen was extremely famous in the inner court.
However, Zhuowen had not come out of the Ice and Fire Dual Polarity Hall more than two years ago. Therefore, many people believed that Zhuowen had completely fallen. The fact that this person had come to look for Zhuowen naturally made the two guards feel rather strange.
"You're looking for Zhuowen?
However, it's a pity that Zhuowen is already dead. You can leave now. "
Just as the two guards were about to speak, a gloomy voice sounded from within the mountain gate. Subsequently, a black-robed young man with a gloomy expression walked over.
"Senior Brother Xuan Chi!"
The instant the young man appeared, the two guards hurriedly bowed. Their expressions were filled with reverence. Xuan Chi was the eldest direct disciple of the Profound Underworld Peak. His status was not something that the two of them could compare to. Naturally, the two of them did not dare to slight him.
"What did you say?
Zhuowen is dead?
How is that possible? "Lü Hantian's pupils shrank as he shouted with an agitated expression.
Xuan Chi looked down at Lü Hantian from high above and said indifferently, "Scram. This place doesn't really welcome someone who isn't from the inner court."
The two guards looked at each other. They wanted to say something but hesitated. In the end, they didn't dare to say anything. Although the man in front of them was Zhuowen's friend, they didn't know whether Zhuowen was dead or alive. They naturally didn't want to offend Xuan Chi because of this.
Lü Hantian was both shocked and furious. He didn't expect Xuan Chi to speak so rudely. Furthermore, he was even more puzzled about Zhuowen's death. Did something happen to Zhuowen in the Inner Yard?
"Lü Hantian, you actually dared to escape to Jia Shen Institute. You really have guts."
A loud shout came from behind Lü Hantian. Immediately after, two men dressed in golden armor stopped more than ten meters behind Lü Hantian. Their gazes were filled with fear as they looked at the entrance of the Inner Courtyard.
In the Divine Specter Domain, the Inner Yard was the strongest force. They had three Saints, which far surpassed the other forces. They were fully deserving of being the overlord force of the Divine Specter Domain.
Therefore, when the two men saw Lü Hantian coming to the entrance of the Inner Yard, their gazes were filled with fear. Could it be that this Lü Hantian knew someone from the Inner Yard?
"Someone from the Martial Saint Tower?"
Xuan Chi also noticed the two men in golden armor. His brows furrowed slightly as he asked in confusion.
"So it's the Senior Direct Disciple of the Profound Underworld Peak, Lord Xuan Chi. We are indeed disciples of the Martial Saint Tower." The two men's attitudes were extremely respectful as they nodded and smiled.
"Oh?
You know me? "Xuan Chi asked in surprise.
"Of course we know each other. The two of us are disciples of the Inner Tower under Senior Brother Leng Quan. This humble one happened to see Lord Xuan Chi and Senior Brother Leng Quan chatting together." The man with the long spear smiled flatteringly.
"I see."
Xuan Chi nodded and said no more. For a moment, the atmosphere became heavy.
The eyes of the man with the long spear flickered. He suddenly smiled and said, "Lord Xuan Chi, we're here today to capture this lecher. I wonder if Lord Xuan Chi can make an exception and let us capture this lecher?"
"Of course, if this person is related to Lord Xuan Chi, we'll give you face and not pursue any consequences."
The man with the long spear was rather smart. He didn't speak too confidently and gave Xuan Chi enough face.
Xuan Chi was elated when he heard that. He glanced at Lü Hantian and said, "This person has nothing to do with our Inner Yard. You can do whatever you want, including killing him."
Lü Hantian's face changed drastically when he heard that. Xuan Chi's words were sinister, especially the last part. He was clearly hinting at the two disciples of the Martial Saint Tower to kill Lü Hantian on the spot.
"Thank you, Lord Xuan Chi!"
The two disciples of the Martial Saint Tower were overjoyed when they heard that. They didn't expect Xuan Chi to be so lenient and allow them to kill Lü Hantian.
Of course, they didn't know that Xuan Chi only interfered because he heard Lü Hantian mention that he was Zhuowen's friend.
After all, Xuan Chi was just about to go out at the mountain gate when he happened to bump into Lu Hantian. Originally, he wouldn't pay attention to this kind of thing, but when he heard about Zhuo Wen, he immediately paid attention to it.
"Lü Hantian, you won't be able to escape today. Do you think you're an Inner Yard disciple?
How dare you come to the Inner Yard to wag your tail and beg for mercy? It's a pity that your wishful thinking is wrong. "
The man with the long spear licked his lips. His eyes emitted a chilling light. He took a step forward and arrived in front of Lü Hantian in an instant. He stretched out his right hand and the long spear in his hand swept towards Lü Hantian's back.
Lü Hantian shouted. The Blood Sacrifice Sealed Door appeared in front of him again. He immediately retreated, not daring to come into contact with the man with the long spear.
Bang!
An explosion resounded as the long spear collided with the Blood Sacrifice Sealed Door. Following that, a terrifying energy exploded and the Blood Sacrifice Sealed Door collapsed completely.
The man with the long spear continued to chase after Lü Hantian.
"Let's see where you can run to."
When Lü Hantian retreated dozens of metres, a malevolent voice resounded in his ears. Following that, a gust of wind whizzed over and smashed towards Lü Hantian.
"Not good!"
Lü Hantian turned his head and saw the man with the double-edged axe on his back. He didn't know when, but he had already appeared behind him. He held the double-edged axe in his right hand and fiercely chopped towards Lü Hantian's waist.
"Dodge!"
Lü Hantian furiously roared. He forcefully twisted his waist in an attempt to dodge the axe.
However, the distance between the two was too short. Furthermore, the double-edged axe was extremely fast. Although Lü Hantian had deliberately avoided his vitals, he was still struck by the double-edged axe. An extremely deep wound appeared on his waist.
Puchi!
Fresh blood flew out and dyed Lü Hantian's clothes red. It looked like a beautiful rose and was extremely frightening.
"Lü Hantian, where are you looking?"
When Lü Hantian clutched his stomach and retreated once again, a cold laughter resounded. Shortly after, the man with the long spear instantly appeared before Lü Hantian. The long spear was like a poisonous snake as it pierced towards him.
Puchi!
The long spear directly pierced through Lü Hantian's left shoulder and lifted him up before heavily smashing him onto the ground. In an instant, countless dust flew up. Lü Hantian fell to the ground and coughed incessantly as he spat out a large mouthful of blood. Tap!
Tap! Tap!
The two disciples of the Martial Saint Tower slowly walked towards Lü Hantian. The man with the long spear said indifferently, "We won't kill you now. You took advantage of the Eldest Miss. When we return, our Eldest Senior Brother will properly punish you. Killing a scum like you right now would be letting you off too easily."
As he spoke, the man with the long spear slammed his right palm onto Lü Hantian's back. Once again, he slammed Lü Hantian onto the ground. At the same time, a surge of energy surged out and turned into an invisible rope, binding Lü Hantian to the ground.
"Lord Xuan Chi, thank you for this!"
The man with the long spear said politely to Xuan Chi as he held Lü Hantian in his hand.
"It's nothing!
It's nothing. "Xuan Chi said indifferently.
"Then we'll take our leave first."
The two men from the Martial Saint Tower bowed and nodded towards Xuan Chi. Soon after, they planned to leave this place. However, just as the two of them were about to take a step forward, a terrifying sound wave spread out, causing their bodies to stiffen.
The sound wave contained traces of killing intent. It was as if they were in the middle of a battlefield, causing their hearts to tremble.
"Who's there?"
The eyes of the two Martial Saint Tower's disciples narrowed. They could not help but turn their gazes towards the mountain gate of the inner academy. A few figures were slowly walking over from there. The one leading them was a lady with a cold expression. This lady was hugging a zither and was continuously playing a desolate tune.
Behind the lady were four people. The four of them were Canaan, Gatha, Mo Lingtian and Qing Yin who had followed Zhuowen from the outer courtyard.
In the past two years, after the five of them had joined the nine peaks, their strength had increased by leaps and bounds. Especially Gatha, her cultivation had reached the Sixth Level Emperor Realm. However, her combat strength was comparable to that of an Advanced Emperor Realm expert.
Although Canaan was only a Fifth Level Emperor Realm expert, with the Undying Armor Soul and the Nine Divine Demon Transformations, he could unleash strength that far exceeded a Middle Level Emperor Realm expert. It would be difficult for a Seventh Level Emperor Realm expert to defeat him.
Moyan Wushang, Qingyin, and Mo Lingtian had all reached the sixth level of the Emperor Realm.
After all, the Fine Gods Academy was a powerful force in the Nine Netherworld Realm. After joining their respective peaks, the five of them had received sufficient resources to cultivate. In two to three years, their cultivation had increased by three small realms. Naturally, it was not a problem.
"Cough!
Wushang, Qing Yin, Canaan, Gatha and Ling Tian. "
Lü Hantian, who was being carried by the man with the long spear, opened his drowsy eyes. When he saw Moyan Wushang and the other four, a glimmer of hope appeared in his eyes. It was as if he had found a life-saving straw.
"Senior Han Tian!"
The five of them stared at Lü Hantian and their expressions changed slightly. When Lü Hantian had followed Zhuowen into the Nine Netherworld Realm, they had a good relationship with him and could chat with him.
Later on, because Lü Hantian was not an inner courtyard disciple, he brought Lv Yitao, Luo Xing and Qing Lian out of the inner courtyard to look for opportunities in the Divine Specter Realm.
