Chapter 1159: Chapter 501: Aftermath [Subscribe Plea]

The sudden mocking voice caused an instantaneous shift in the expressions of both parties battling within Tuyun Ridge.

Di Long, the Black Dragon Hall Master of the Dragon Transformation Sect, who was previously brimming with confidence, now had a face filled with panic and eyes full of terror.

On the other hand, Zhou Chun and Lin Hongyu, who were previously overwhelmed with panic, were now ecstatic like drowning people clutching at straws for salvation.

Although the two were somewhat unfamiliar with the mocking voice, the information revealed therein made it clear that the speaker was a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator elder from Jingguo Country.

That certainty meant an ally for them!

Therefore, Zhou Chun promptly acted upon his thought, manipulating the Formation to reveal an opening.

This opening seemed to facilitate the entry of the Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator from outside, but in fact, it also provided Di Long with an escape route.

Zhou Chun certainly did not wish for a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator to take action within Tuyun Ridge, as the residual effects of such a skirmish would cause tremendous damage to the Zhou Family Mountain Gate.

Although Di Long was aware of Zhou Chun’s intention to open the Formation, he had no choice but to obediently abandon his assault and head straight for the opening.

As an Array Grandmaster, he had been confident enough to breach the Nine Palaces Yellow Dragon Formation and escape after his assassination attempt on Zhou Chun.

But that was predicated on the absence of interference from Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators.

Nowadays, knowing a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator was outside, if he dared linger within Tuyun Ridge, it would be akin to willingly being trapped in a jar!

However, the moment his figure burst through the opening, a beam of golden light shot through the sky and struck him.

Under the illumination of the golden light, his multiple layers of protection were instantly breached, and he uttered a miserable cry.

But by relying on the formidable defensive capabilities granted by the fourth layer of the Secret of Dragon Transformation, Di Long managed to withstand the blow from a Nascent Soul and quickly transformed into a Black Escape Light that swiftly fled into the distance.

"Think you can escape?"

A faint voice filled the sky, and another beam of golden light shot towards Di Long in his attempt to flee.

Di Long in mid-air knew that it was a moment to fight desperately for his life.

Suddenly raising his hand, he summoned a large black Dragon Scale facing the golden light, instantaneously transforming into a burst of black divine brilliance that collided with the light, resulting in mutual destruction.

Clearly, this was a life-saving measure given to him by the Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator of the Dragon Transformation Sect, ensuring he wouldn’t be powerless when facing other Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators.

Unfortunately, such a one-time defensive tactic could only protect him momentarily.

The figure in the sky flashed, and a golden silhouette suddenly transformed into a Golden Escape Light that furiously pursued Di Long, its speed far surpassing his own!

In the midst of the chase, more beams of golden light continued to sweep towards Di Long.

Even though Di Long could defend against two or three strikes using various means, he could not fend them off indefinitely.

Zhou Chun did not witness Di Long’s eventual fate.

A Golden Core Late Stage Cultivator fleeing at full strength was simply too fast, a distance of a hundred li passed in a mere instant.

Zhou Chun only later learned that Di Long ultimately failed to escape the clutches of Tianjing True Person and died at the hands of this Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator.

It was only when Zhou Chun personally visited the Moon Wheel Sect to meet Baiyue True Person that he understood that Jingguo Country had long suspected the Dragon Transformation Sect would not sit idly by as Lin Hongyu and he flourished, and hence had secretly arranged for someone to lay in wait near the Zhou Family Mountain Gate.

The Dragon Transformation Sect probably guessed this too, which is why they had not sent anyone to attack the Zhou family.

But this time, with Zhou Chun holding a high-profile Golden Core ceremony, the Dragon Transformation Sect apparently couldn’t stand idly by any longer and specifically dispatched Black Dragon Hall Master Di Long to infiltrate Tuyun Ridge and initiate the assassination.

Unfortunately, Di Long also did not anticipate that after purposely waiting for the end of the Golden Core ceremony before taking action and choosing to perform an internal assassination, he still failed.

He also did not expect that the person Jingguo Country sent to surreptitiously watch him was not a Golden Core Late Stage Cultivator, as he had assumed, but Tianjing True Person, a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator!

A Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator patiently laying in wait outside Tuyun Ridge, secretly protecting a newly advanced Golden Core Stage cultivator of a Golden Core family dynasty.

Even until his death, Di Long could not comprehend why Tianjing True Person did this!

Of course, he was unaware of the inner turmoil in Tianjing True Person’s heart.

Ever since he was captured by Qingxiao True Person and had a third of his Primordial Spirit forcibly split and infused into the God-Forbidding Token under the influence of the God-Forbidding Technique, he had no hope of advancing to the Middle Stage of the Nascent Soul in his later life and lost his freedom, his very life controlled by others.

Now, although he appeared to be a lofty Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator, he was in reality but a high-level enforcer under the control of the Moon Wheel Sect and the Sunflame Sect, daring not defy the orders from the Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators of the two factions!

Meanwhile, after watching Di Long and Tianjing True Person rapidly disappear into the distance in pursuit, Zhou Chun’s heart finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, while he hurriedly restored the opened opening in the Formation, he also released his Divine Sense to scrutinize the entire mountain gate in case more people from the Dragon Transformation Sect were lurking inside.

No matter by what means Di Long had disguised himself to infiltrate, it indicated that the Zhou Family’s security systems needed further improvement.

Zhou Chun would not blame the Clan Members who allowed Di Long to enter, but he absolutely could not tolerate such incidents happening
