Chapter 3785

The four aristocratic families' allied army clashed fiercely with the Ascension Sect's cultivator army. Battle cries soared into the sky and filled the entire Ascension Sect and even the entire Sky Dragon Mountain Range.

Unfortunately, the difference between the two sides was too great. The Ascension Sect's cultivator army was completely suppressed, and the Ascension Sect's higher-ups were killed by Li Yuanfeng one by one.

The Ascension Sect's cultivator army lost their will to fight in a short period of time. The casualties started to increase, and the battle started to become one-sided.

Elder Yuqi was imprisoned on the deck of the divine ship. She looked at the Ascension Sect's cultivator army being killed and injured. Her eyes were bloodshot and filled with rage.

However, she was helpless. She was too weak and couldn't resist the four aristocratic families' allied army.

"I heard from Li Yuanfeng that you have a disciple who also has the spiritual water root. Where is she now?"

Murong Dingshen came to Elder Yuqi's side and lifted her by the collar. He sneered.

Elder Yuqi looked at Murong Dingshen coldly and said, "I don't know!

Even if I knew, I wouldn't tell you! "

Murong Dingshen wasn't angry. He smiled and said, "It's fine if you don't tell me. After we destroy the Ascension Sect, we will naturally find your disciple!

The Ascension Sect is like a turtle in a jar for us four aristocratic families. No one can escape! "

Elder Yuqi sighed in her heart. How could she not see the situation clearly?

The only thing she could do now was to silently pray that Lu Miaozhen would be safe and sound.

In the depths of the Ascension Sect, in the Waterdrop Peak, Lu Miaozhen saw terrifying battle cries and waves of terrifying battle energy coming from the Ascension Sect's mountain gate.

Her pretty face turned ghastly pale, and her delicate body was trembling.

Apothecary Lu held her hand and said in a deep voice, "Miaozhen, don't worry!

Elder Yuqi is very powerful. She won't be defeated so easily!

Don't forget what Elder Yuqi told us before she left. You are the hope of the Ascension Sect. You cannot die here! "

"The Ascension Sect is now in a life and death situation. You must shoulder the heavy responsibility of revitalizing the Ascension Sect in the future. Let's go quickly!"

As he spoke, Apothecary Lu pulled Lu Miaozhen and walked towards the depths of the Waterdrop Peak.

Elder Yuqi had once told them that there was a secret passage in the Waterdrop Peak that led to the outside world of the Ascension Sect.

As long as they followed the secret passage, they would be able to leave the Ascension Sect.

"Why is there a fork in the tunnel? Which fork should we take?"

After Lu Miaozhen and Alchemist Lu entered the secret passageway, they soon came to a fork in the road. They stopped in their tracks, their eyes filled with uncertainty.

The two of them hesitated for a moment before choosing the passage on the right.

After about an incense stick's worth of time, they saw the white light at the end of the passageway. Thus, they quickly walked out of the passageway.

A glaring light shone on them, and the two couldn't help but squint their eyes.

After their eyes adjusted, they were finally able to clearly see the entirety of the place they were in.

"This … is the Heavenly Pit?"

Lu Miaozhen looked at the huge pit in front of her and muttered in a low voice. Her eyes were filled with disappointment.

Lu Miaozhen also noticed that there was a small pit not far from the Heavenly Pit that was surrounded by purple energy. It looked rather eerie.

"Looks like we've taken the wrong path. It should be another fork in the road. It's the right one. Miaozhen, let's go back and take another fork in the road!"

Apothecary Lu sighed softly. He pulled Lu Miaozhen's right hand, intending to re-enter the passageway.

However, Lu Miaozhen's expression changed drastically. She exerted force with her right hand and flung Apothecary Lu away. Then, the two of them instantly separated.

Boom!

In that instant, the sound of something breaking through the air surged over. A series of terrifying explosions sounded in the air and landed where the two of them were.

It was a heavy and heavy greatsword!

The instant the greatsword landed on the ground, an earth-shattering sound rang out. Then, the ground exploded. A ring-shaped shockwave spread out, causing Lu Miaozhen and Apothecary Lu to stumble backward.

A foot landed on the greatsword's hilt. It was a young man with a haughty expression.

He looked at Lu Miaozhen from the corner of his eyes and grinned. "I didn't think there'd be a fish that slipped through the net in the Heavenly Pit!"

"Who are you?" Lu Miaozhen looked at the young man warily.

"Heh heh, he's the Murong family's number one genius, Murong Haoyin!"

A clear, malicious voice called out from the other side of the pit. Lu Miaozhen saw a coquettish woman in a long dress. She slowly walked over from the other side of the Heavenly Pit.

Murong Haoyin stared coldly at the coquettish woman. "Dawn Polaris, you want to stop me?"

"Heh heh, Murong Haoyin. You think we don't know what you're planning?

Elder Yuqi's disciple is this woman. She's also a spiritual-water root!

Your Master Murong has already captured Elder Yuqi. That's enough. You should also give me this Lu Miaozhen! "

A tall and sturdy young man walked out from the other side of the Heavenly Pit. He was clad in black armor and had a resolute face. His whole body exuded a masculine aura.

Murong Haoyin and Dawn looked at the tall and sturdy young man with serious expressions. They called out in unison. "Dongfang Xiong!"

"How interesting. Three of the top geniuses of the four great families are here. Now we're only missing Nangong Wuji!" Dawn chuckled.

"Heh heh!

Nangong Wuji?

I heard that when he went to the Ascension School last time, all four of his limbs were crippled. What right does a piece of trash like him have to be mentioned in the same breath as me? "Dongfang Xiong strode over. Every step he took caused the ground to shake violently.

"Dongfang Xiong, you're overestimating yourself. Nangong Wuji is also at the middle stage of the Nihility Transformation. If even his limbs were crippled, I don't think you'd fare any better against him!" Murong Haoyin sneered.

"Humph!

The reason I followed the Dongfang patriarch here is to see the disciple who crippled Nangong Wuji. I heard that guy's name is Zhuowen. He's the disciple of the Ascension School's ancestor, Zu Zeyang!

Unfortunately, I searched all around the Ascension School and couldn't find any trace of that Zhuowen! "

Dongfang Xiong said with some displeasure.

Here Dongfang Xiong looked at Murong Haoyin and Dawn. "Do you have any clues about Zhuowen? I came here to kill him. To prove that I'm the best of the four great families' younger generation, I must kill this Zhuowen!"

Murong Haoyin sneered. "I don't have any clues. However, killing Zhuowen doesn't necessarily prove that you're the best of the four great families' younger generation. Have you forgotten me and Dawn?"

Dongfang Xiong grinned. "After I kill Zhuowen, I'll prove that I'm stronger than Nangong Wuji. Then I'll come looking for you two. When the time comes, I won't show you any mercy. Don't blame me if you're killed!"

"Dongfang Xiong, you sure know how to talk big!

Let's not talk about that Zhuo Wen first. I'm definitely going to get this Lu Miaozhen today!

If any of you try to take her from me, don't blame me for being rude! "Murong Haoyin said calmly.

Dongfang Xiong sneered. He punched his fists together and said, "Let's see how rude you're going to be!"

Murong Haoyin didn't say anything. He opened his right hand and a burst of energy bound Lu Miaozhen. Pharmacist Lu was suppressed and ignored.
