A small house was actually covered with Martial Monarch Realm defensive formations!

Moreover, Li Liushui’s saber just now had almost destroyed these few mountains and the other Martial Monarch Realm formations. However, that small house was still intact.

How powerful was the person behind Fang Tianyuan?

Fang Aotian’s eyes flickered twice before he finally chose to give up and follow after Li Liushui.

In any case, Fang Tianyuan would definitely not be able to withstand that move. After killing Fang Tianyuan, this huge threat, Fang Aotian felt that he would not lose out today.

On the ground, when the fluctuation dissipated, everyone immediately gathered together after recovering some blood essence and strength.

“Is everyone alright?”

Yun Lige shouted. Ji Wuxia and the others immediately replied,

“I’m fine.”

“I can still take it.”

Yun Lige heaved a sigh of relief and counted the people.

“One, two, three, four, five… No, where’s Third Junior Brother?”

He exclaimed and immediately used his divine sense to search. Then, he flew towards the location he sensed.

“Junior… Junior Brother Fang.”

“Senior Brother Fang, what’s wrong?”

Li Changsheng and the others rushed over and saw Fang Tianyuan. Their hearts instantly pounded.

Fang Tianyuan’s eyes had already dimmed. His chest had already been slashed open by a saber beam. It went from his shoulder to his abdomen, and even his heart had been slashed into two.

Li Liushui’s saber was too powerful. It was already not something he could defend with his current strength.

“Junior Brother Fang died for us.”

Ji Wuxia clenched her fists tightly, and her eyes were red. The killing intent in her eyes was corporeal.

“Fang Aotian, Li Liushui! I have to kill the two of them!”

The next moment, an unexpected change suddenly occurred in the sky. Space distorted as Lu Xiaoran’s figure fell from the void.

Seeing Lu Xiaoran’s figure in a coat and bamboo hat, Ling Xinyue’s pupils immediately constricted.

It was him!

It was actually him!

At this moment, Ling Xinyue understood everything.

She had been used by Lu Xiaoran.

He was the one who guided her to deal with the Ancient Ape Tribe. He was also the one who deliberately pretended to be mistaken and treated her as his daughter. He also gave her medicinal pills and Martial Monarch Realm weapons so that she would consume Fang Aotian’s strength!

At this moment, Ling Xinyue felt her heart collapse.

She, a dignified Demon Venerable, had actually been deceived so miserably!

Now, not only was she beaten until only her soul was left, but she had also called Lu Xiaoran ‘Dad’ so many times.

What was even more hateful was that until just now, she had been helping Lu Xiaoran. She even wanted things to remain this way and be his daughter for the rest of her life.

“Bastard! I’ll kill you.”

Ling Xinyue roared angrily, and her eyes widened. She transformed into a black light and rushed towards Lu Xiaoran.

Lu Xiaoran did not even look at her. With a snap of his fingers, he directly absorbed her soul into a Martial Monarch Realm weapon and temporarily suppressed it.

Then, he landed on the ground. Yun Lige and the others immediately leaned forward with red eyes.

“Master, Junior Brother Fang sacrificed himself for us.”

“I know.”

Lu Xiaoran nodded and then released the Body Modeling Mark, absorbing Fang Tianyuan’s flesh and soul into the Body Modeling Mark and activating his Dharma treasure.

A moment later, a light flashed, and a new Fang Tianyuan appeared in front of everyone again.

Yun Lige :”…”

Ji Wuxia :”…”

Li Changsheng :”…”

Zhuge Ziqiong :”…”

He was resurrected just like that?

Was this a joke?

They had almost cried just now and were even prepared to kneel and pay their respects to Fang Tianyuan.

Was their master’s technique that abnormal? Was it impossible for them to die?

It was not strange for them to be shocked.

Although their master had also repaired Zhuge Ziqiong before, Zhuge Ziqiong was a zombie. Everyone thought that their master had used some special secret technique.

However, Fang Tianyuan was a living person!

A living, breathing person.

If their master could even bring a dead person back to life, how monstrous was their master’s ability?

As for Zhuge Ziqiong, she did not know that she had only been left with a hand after being killed.

In fact, although Lu Xiaoran had a divine weapon like the Body Modeling Mark, he still could not repair Fang Tianyuan’s soul in an instant. After all, the Body Modeling Mark only contained a drop of Fang Tianyuan’s blood and a wisp of his soul essence. It would take a certain amount of time to completely fuse them.

Fortunately, Li Liushui’s saber attack did not shatter Fang Tianyuan’s body and his body and soul still existed.

At this moment, Lu Xiaoran used the Body Modeling Mark to absorb Fang Tianyuan’s body and soul. After fusing, the repairing process went by quickly, allowing him to revive Fang Tianyuan in a few breaths.

“Master, I’m sorry. I was useless and let Fang Aotian escape.”

Lu Xiaoran said with a calm expression,

“It’s fine. Victory and defeat are common in war. Moreover, you guys did very well this time. You guys had basically killed Fang Aotian. However, another hot shot appeared in the end. With the two of them working together, it’s normal for you guys to be unable to defeat him.”

The hot shots were all hackers and experts. They had all kinds of powerful techniques at their fingertips. Moreover, the hot shots were extraordinary and could easily cause Fang Aotian and the others’ attacks to miss, make their opponents’ Martial Monarch Realm weapons shatter, and even break through in battle!

If Fang Tianyuan and the others really defeated the other party’s two hot shots, Lu Xiaoran would feel that something was wrong!

“Then Master, what should we do next? Fang Aotian escaped this time. It won’t be easy to kill him next time.”

“There’s nothing we can do about that. He’s already gone. It’s not like we can chase after them now. We should leave this place first to avoid anyone coming and exposing our identities.”

“Yes!”

Then, Lu Xiaoran used the Heaven-Breaking Shuttle and waved his hand. He raised everyone onto the Heaven-Breaking Shuttle like an eagle grabbing a chick and left in the direction of the Imperial City.

He more or less understood that this matter today was definitely not a coincidence.

Since he had yet to go find Li Liushui, it was impossible for Li Liushui to know him. Even if the other party was suddenly reminded of Li Changsheng’s existence, it would still be impossible for him to come here at such a coincidental time to save Fang Aotian.

The only explanation was that there was someone behind all of this.

As for who it was, Lu Xiaoran more or less knew.

Other than Lin Fei’s mother, who else could it be?

Currently, among all his enemies, only Fairy Hongyu was the most likely and most qualified to be the person behind all of this.

First of all, since she even dared to create a hot shot, then her cultivation and intelligence were definitely not low. Finding other hot shots was nothing special to someone like her.

Secondly, she controlled the Acacia Faction.

That was the strongest intelligence-gathering sect in the Great Zhou.

Whoever obtained the information would obtain victory.

If she had information, she could easily predict the best time for Li Liushui to arrive.

It seemed that Lu Xiaoran now had to take the initiative to start fighting her.

“Nalan Hongyu, since you want to mess with me, I’ll return the favor properly. Let’s see if you have more tricks up your sleeve or if I’m stronger!”

…

On the other side, Fang Aotian, who had left this place, followed Li Liushui and quickly arrived at a nearby… Acacia Faction.

When he saw the Acacia Faction, Fang Aotian was dumbfounded.

Although he was very lecherous and had a lot of women, he had never come to a sect like the Acacia Faction.

However, seeing Li Liushui enter, Fang Aotian had no choice but to enter.

He really wanted to see who the mastermind was.

This Acacia Faction fairy was different from the other Acacia Faction fairies. When the fairies saw the two of them arrive, they did not act frivolously. Instead, they respectfully welcomed the two of them upstairs.

When the two of them arrived upstairs, Fang Aotian finally saw Nalan Hongyu for the first time.

He was instantly shocked by this woman.

Mature, charming, sexy…

Fang Aotian felt that countless praises in this world were not excessive when used on this woman.

“Come, sit.”

Nalan Hongyu welcomed the two of them to the seats opposite her.

After getting closer, Fang Aotian smelled a strange fragrance on Nalan Hongyu’s body. It was so tempting that it made his heart race.

A pair of grand searchlights were located in a corner of the room. They reflected a dazzling white light that made him dizzy.

He swore that if he had not met Lu Xiaoran’s disciples, he would have long gone up to hit on the other party.

However, at this moment, there was a strange aura everywhere. It was better for him to be careful.

Most importantly, this woman gave him a feeling that she was very dangerous and her cultivation was abnormally powerful.

If he was not careful, he might be killed by her.

After taking a deep breath, Fang Aotian said with a solemn expression,

“Tell me, who are you? Why did you save me?”

“Let me introduce myself. My name is Nalan Hongyu. As for why I saved you, it’s because I want to work with you.”

“Why should I work with you?”

“Because only by cooperating with me can you live and kill Lu Xiaoran. Lu Xiaoran is also the person behind Fang Tianyuan.”

“Lu Xiaoran?”

Fang Aotian frowned and muttered, “Why should I believe you?”

“You have no choice but to believe me because if you don’t listen to me, I guarantee that you will be found by Lu Xiaoran very quickly. His disciple is already dead, and he won’t let the matter rest. As for the consequences of being found by him, I don’t think I need to remind you, right?”

Fang Aotian pondered for a moment and recalled the Martial Monarch Realm formations and the Martial Monarch Realm weapons on Fang Aotian and the others. His heart could not help but palpitate.

“What does that have to do with me? Fang Tianyuan was killed by your underling, not me.”

“Do you think you can escape like this? It doesn’t matter what the truth is and whether you kill Fang Tianyuan or not, Lu Xiaoran will still kill you because your existence is a huge threat to him.”

“Why?”

“Because you’re a hot shot. You can also understand it as being someone with the potential to become a Martial Monarch Realm expert on the path of martial cultivation. As long as you’re given enough time to develop, your future will be limitless. After Lu Xiaoran took Fang Tianyuan in as his disciple, he has already become your enemy. Do you think he will sit idly by and watch you kill his disciple after advancing to the Martial Monarch Realm?”
