Chapter 376: The Cang Blood Tribe’s Pursuit Mission!
At this moment, however, everyone laughed and said:
“Elder Yi, what are you talking about? How can it be the time to return now?”
“Hahaha, that’s right. Elder Yi, did you forget the promise the Cang Blood Tribe just made inside the city?”
Yi Tianliu paused for a moment, as if regaining his senses.
“The Cang Blood Tribe’s wealth and treasures, more than half of them, plus a hundred years of protection…”
In front of death, that temptation had not felt very strong, but now that they were out of the city, everyone recalled it and immediately became moved!
What did these rewards mean?
With half of the Cang Blood Tribe’s treasures to cultivate, along with a century of guaranteed protection—so long as one did not court death—
one would basically live worry-free for a hundred years.
With those treasures, after a hundred years it would depend how high one could climb.
Those with enough talent might directly soar to the heavens!
Even those with mediocre aptitude could still live safely within the Cang Blood Tribe’s promise for a hundred years.
In an instant, Yi Tianliu could no longer suppress his own thoughts. Though he was an elder of Jingyun Tower, his position was ordinary.
The cultivation resources given to him by the sect were only just enough for his own use.
Otherwise, he would not have come here seeking fortune.
Now, with such a chance, he had to seize it!
Yi Tianliu swept his gaze around. He had always acted cautiously.
He saw that most of the cultivators around were late Yang Spirit Realm and early-to-mid Three Blossoms Realm.
As a late-stage Three Blossoms cultivator, his strength stood out above the rest.
If he participated in the mission, his chances of victory were extremely high!
Thinking this, he immediately made up his mind.
“What you say is right. I too will participate in the mission ahead. Gentlemen, from here on, we each rely on our own means!”
Having spoken, Yi Tianliu was the first to rush toward the outside of the city.
“Hmph! This Yi Tianliu, all righteous appearance, yet he abandons us at once.”
Someone said coldly as they watched his departing figure.
“Hahaha, it’s normal. He’s late-stage Three Blossoms, so naturally he feels his chances are great. Now that we’ve come out, of course he wants to complete the mission alone.”
“But we will stay together. By joining forces, even if we complete the mission, we can split the rewards. We need not fear him!”
Another person laughed upon hearing this:
“Well said! With our combined strength, the reward will still be enough for us to live freely for a hundred years!”
“Let’s move. Since the Cang Blood Tribe directed us to the eastern gate, that so-called blood-colored creature should have left from here. Hurry, everyone!”
Finishing their words, several figures quickly rushed toward the distance.
…
Meanwhile, Gu Fan and Fang Xue were carrying the Blood-colored Child as they headed toward Xiyao City.
As they left the City Defensive Grand Formation, they too heard the thunderous roar erupting from within the city.
The Cang Blood Tribe had offered half of its resources to hire others to capture the Blood-colored Child, showing that the top experts had already been tied down by the Gu Family’s cultivators.
But even so, the two of them did not relax.
Even if only a few within such a great city survived, it was still not something the two of them could handle.
At the very least, hundreds; at most, thousands.
Driven by profit, these people would pursue them with everything they had.
Gu Fan did not believe he could block so many opponents head-on.
At this moment, the three of them were running madly, already putting over a thousand li between themselves and the city.
“Hahaha! I’m finally out! Freedom! This is the taste of freedom!”
Hearing the Blood-colored Child’s constant laughter along the way, Gu Fan’s face darkened as he said:
“Behave yourself. Didn’t you hear they’re hunting you right now?”
“Isn’t that why I have you two?”
“We?”
Fang Xue chuckled coldly:
“You think too highly of us. In the city, there are at least a hundred cultivators at the Three Blossoms Realm. How could we possibly stop them?”
“When the time comes and we can’t hold them back, if you get captured, that cannot count as us breaking our agreement. So I advise you to stay quiet.”
The Blood-colored Child realized she had a point, and quickly restrained his excitement.
At this time, Gu Fan couldn’t help but ask:
“Didn’t you say you feared no one below the Shore Reaching Realm?”
“And you were able to destroy the City Defensive Grand Formation. Why would you be afraid of this rabble? I think you should just make a move and end the trouble once and for all!”
The Blood-colored Child laughed awkwardly:
“When did I ever say my strength was great?”
“I was able to destroy the grand formation only because of my unique nature. As for my true strength, forget the Shore Reaching Realm or the Tribulation Crossing Realm—even against an ordinary Three Blossoms Realm, I’m only average. Once I get surrounded, I’ll just be captured!”
Gu Fan’s face darkened. So it turned out this thing was just putting on airs.
At the time, he had been shocked because the child had effortlessly broken a grand formation that required a full strike from a Shore Reaching Realm cultivator.
From his perspective, that naturally meant great power.
Who would have thought the thing was just for show?
No wonder it had obediently let the Gu Family’s cultivators imprison it, and later directly fled.
At this moment, the Blood-colored Child chuckled:
“But don’t worry. Now that I’m with you, my blood energy won’t leak. They won’t be able to find us so easily.”
“Even if they do, we can just run. If we can’t beat them, we flee!”
Fang Xue was speechless. She had hoped this one was a hidden powerhouse to give them some confidence.
But now the ‘powerhouse’ revealed he was actually just trash.
Who could accept such a reversal?
Just then, Gu Fan swept with his divine sense, his expression changing:
“Be careful! Someone is already rushing toward us—one late-stage Yang Spirit cultivator and one mid-stage Three Blossoms cultivator!”
At this, the Blood-colored Child grew interested.
“One Yang Spirit and one Three Blossoms? Isn’t that just seeking death?”
“I think this pair doesn’t even require me. You two can handle them yourselves!”
Gu Fan remained silent. After thinking for a moment, he decided they must resolve this quickly. If they got delayed and the main group caught up, escaping would become uncertain!
Thinking so, Gu Fan looked at Fang Xue and said:
“Guide the way for me. I’ll take care of the trash behind us!”
“Alright!”
Fang Xue agreed without hesitation, placing her hand on his shoulder as they continued forward.
Meanwhile, Gu Fan slowly gathered his focus.
A small Black Sphere gradually formed in his palm.
This was the first time Fang Xue had felt the terrifying aura of the Black Sphere so close.
The only word that could describe it—horrifying.
Even though the sphere in Gu Fan’s hand wasn’t very large, she knew she could never withstand it!
Suddenly, Gu Fan’s eyes snapped open.
His divine sense locked sharply onto the two figures closing in behind.
A cold smile appeared at the corner of his lips.
“Let me treat you to a nuclear bomb!”
“Go!”
The Black Sphere spun rapidly, then shot toward the two pursuers.
They had no time to react. The moment the Black Sphere entered their sight, they couldn’t even move before—
A small mushroom cloud rose into the air!
Gu Fan’s hand reached out, snatching up two still-intact storage pouches and tucking them away.
