Chapter 490: Chapter 381: Fang Family Ancestor Ran Away Himself (4K+ Request for Monthly Ticket)

The giant beast strikes the sky, and the demonic howl startles the air.

Amidst the boundless mountains, one demonic shadow after another heads towards the northwest.

It’s like a tranquil fishing pond suddenly boiling over when bait is cast!

The three from Taisui Mountain, who were detouring southward, watched this scene with great suspicion.

The direction these demons are surging toward is exactly where they fell from the teleportation passage.

The three are not novices in the field; the more coincidental the event at such a time, the less simple it is. Thus, all eyes fell on Chen Yuan, the leader.

Unexpectedly, this Ninth Mountain’s Colonel looked towards the northwest direction, openly admitting it, which surprised the three Grand Protectors.

"The Confucian saying goes, ’A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall!’" Chen Yuan’s tone carried a hint of mockery,

"These Fang Family’s members have impure thoughts and even have disagreements with me, so why should I keep them?"

"If we were discovered by demons, these people might stab us in the back first. I really can’t think of a reason to spare them. So, when we left, I did something to that water area."

Chen Yuan unabashedly revealed his thoughts.

In their current situation, they should be uniting all forces they can. The Fang Family Ancestor, a half-step Dragon and Tiger, is a strong ally, but Chen Yuan never considered it. He disliked their way of doing things and clashing with him earlier. That night, after boarding the ship, Chen Yuan had murderous intent.

So he plotted a strategy, using a borrowed knife to kill!

And conveniently directed the demons’ attention, making them somewhat useful!

Brother Jin, Hu Yanqing, and Yu Wenguang’s eyelids twitched hearing Chen Yuan’s explanation. No wonder they took a detour, it was all in this Ninth Colonel’s calculations.

He wants to use demons to eliminate the Fang Family’s members and divert the demons’ attention to buy them some space.

His methods are ruthless, taking preemptive action against potential threats without holding back!

Even the Fang Family Ancestor probably didn’t realize it.

They understood this Ninth Mountain’s Colonel’s way of doing things better but didn’t develop any suspicion or apprehension because of it. They subconsciously felt that Chen Yuan made reasonable points.

The fact that he was willing to confide in the three of them indicated a certain level of "trust," giving the three an inexplicable sense of recognition!

Even though admitting it felt awkward, this was the case at heart.

"Just as it should be!" Hu Yanqing’s large copper bell-like eyes bulged with agreement. He was quite displeased with Fang Shiqing and, being straightforward, noted the situation in the mountains before changing his tone: "However, these demons in the mountains aren’t very powerful. We haven’t seen any formidable ones chasing us. I’m afraid, Ninth Colonel, your plan might fail!"

Despite the giant beasts traversing the sky and enormous clusters of demonic qi rushing northwest, which was an astonishing sight, the most powerful among them was the Heavenly Pass Tao Fruit. It still lacked the capability to threaten someone of the Fang Family’s half-step Dragon and Tiger caliber, a Great Divine Ability User.

As soon as he finished speaking, a flash of light appeared in Chen Yuan’s eyes, and he suddenly said, "Hold your breath and conceal yourselves."

As the words fell, Chen Yuan’s already illusory figure completely melded into the void, vanishing without a trace. The three Grand Protectors from Taisui Mountain were about to question, but then they sensed something and their expressions became stern. A faint layer of golden light spread over them as their figures also merged into the void.

A dozen breaths later, suddenly, a strong wind whipped through Heaven and Earth, whipping sand and pebbles in its wake. Soon, from the eastern direction, a huge shadow was cast down, obscuring the Great Sun in the sky, and the daylight suddenly dimmed.

The sky reverberated with sharp, ear-piercing cries. Cold shimmering feathers filled the void overhead. Numerous Gu Diao, with various colored feathers wings spread wide, shattered the sky as they headed decisively northwest. There were dozens of them.

Among them, a massive Gu Diao, spanning 180 zhang in length, appeared like a raging flame, grim and fierce, with black demonic qi swirling, its blood-red eyes like a bloody moon. With a flap of its huge wings, it pierced through the air, covering a li with each breath, making an impressive display, and the gale it stirred up left the forests below quivering, silencing countless agitated wild beasts and little demons in the mountains.

When a Great Demon emerges, all smaller demons bow!

This Gu Diao Great Demon, carrying overwhelming might, turned into a black dot and vanished on the distant horizon in just a few breaths.

The wind blowing westward through the mountains, bending the treetops, quickly returned to normal.

Where they were just now, Chen Yuan and the three’s shadows reappeared from the void.

Chen Yuan’s eyes were bright as he watched the Great Demon disappear into the distance, contemplating deeply. Luwu Mountain lies over a thousand li to the east, the source of Zegeng Water. Even with such speed, those Great Demons couldn’t have gotten there so quickly, indicating that the Gu Diao of Luwu Mountain had indeed received a message and were searching everywhere.

This only reinforced his decision to continue southward!

"It seems the demons are indeed searching for us, with Great Demons dispatched so quickly." Jade Qilin, Jin Yushan, had the same thought as Chen Yuan, his expression solemn.

"I imagine even stronger demons will move as the news spreads!"

"The fate of those Fang Family’s members is sealed, but that Fang Family Ancestor should be able to escape. After all, he is not so easy to kill."

He said this while looking at Chen Yuan, whose expression didn’t change, "Ninth Colonel, you must have foreseen this step!"

Hu Yanqing hadn’t grasped the idea yet, rubbing his chin hairs impatiently, "Brother Jin, are you saying that old guy will still get away?"

Jin Yushan said nothing, simply watching Chen Yuan. Chen Yuan could tell that among the three of them, this Confucian cultivator known by the nickname Jade Qilin was the main speaker, wise and insightful, having understood her intention.
