Regardless of whether the crowd were astonished, terrified or were flattering him, Chu Feng paid absolutely no attention to them.
He had already anticipated that they would behave like that once he revealed his strength to them.
He had experienced this sort of thing many times.
âYou all have witnessed how dangerous this place is. Thus, do not wait for me here. Itâs best to distance yourselves from this place.â
âFurthermore, if you are to sense that the situation is strange, leave immediately. Understand?â Chu Feng said to Linghu Yuueyue and Linghu Anâan.
âMn.â
Linghu Yueyue and Linghu Anâan nodded.
âThe same goes for you all. If the situation seems strange, leave immediately.â
âIn fact, itâs best to leave right now. The change to this place is definitely not merely the Spirit Spring Water. It is very possible that the Ancient Eraâs organisms hidden in this place are about to breach the formation containing them to break out from this place,â Chu Feng said to the crowd.
âWhat? Ancient Eraâs organisms?â
âMilord, are you talking about those Ancient Eraâs organisms from earlier?â asked someone.
âDo those Ancient Eraâs organisms from earlier seem like they could breach the formation containing them?â
âAlthough I do not know who set up the spirit formation in this place, it is very powerful. Itâs purpose is precisely to suppress those Ancient Eraâs organisms.â
âYet now, that spirit formation is being destroyed.â
âIt might be precisely because those Ancient Eraâs organisms from earlier were weak that they were able to pass through the spirit formation to come here.â
âThose with truly powerful cultivations are still behind. They will only be able to come out once the spirit formation is completely breached.â
âI suspect that if those Ancient Eraâs organisms from behind are to come out, even the people from the Cloudspirit Clan will suffer,â said Chu Feng.
âTheyâre that terrifying?â
The crowd all revealed looks of panic and worry after hearing Chu Fengâs words.
When he had been urging them to leave before, they had believed that he was deceiving them.
However, things were completely different now. After they witnessed Chu Fengâs ability, their image of him had changed completely.
To them, Chu Feng was not only a genius. He was also a Snake Mark Saint-cloak World Spiritist.
Who among them could possibly dare to declare that they knew the situation there better than a Snake Mark Saint-cloak World Spiritist?
Thus, they firmly believed in everything Chu Feng said.
âI wish you all the best of luck.â
After saying those words, Chu Fengâs body shifted as he leapt into the lake.
âLord Asura will not deceive us. Weâve personally witnessed the situation inside the lake. Earlier, I felt the aura of a peak Exalted. However, at the depths of the lake was an even more terrifying aura.â
âEarlier, I thought I was having a misperception. However, since Lord Asura has explained how dangerous things are, the aura I felt must be real.â
âI urge everyone to quickly leave this dangerous place,â said Pang Boâs father.
âThatâs right. Lord Asura wouldnât deceive us. This place is truly dangerous. If it wasnât for Lord Asura earlier, all of us wouldâve died.â
âDamned Cloudspirit Clan, itâs no wonder theyâre not involving themselves in this. They must know how dangerous this place is. Thatâs why theyâve hidden themselves, and are having us throw our lives away instead.â
âForget it. Stop complaining. Letâs all quickly leave this place so that we donât end up losing our lives in vain.â
âRight, letâs leave this dangerous place.â
After Chu Feng entered the lake, the crowdâs final sense of security disappeared. They felt that simply no one besides him would be able to protect them.
They no longer dared to linger there.
Thus, countless figures soared into the sky. Like a flock of startled birds, they began to fly away in all directions.
Even the people from the Scarlet Wind Pavilion brought Mu Ziwei with them and left.
However, Linghu Yueyue and Linghu Anâan showed no intentions of leaving.
âYoung ladies, why arenât you two leaving?â Pang Boâs father asked with concern.
âWeâre waiting for Lord Asura here,â said Linghu Yueyue.
âItâs meaningless to wait here. The two of you will not be able to provide any help to Lord Asura,â said Pang Boâs father.
âAlthough we wonât be able to help Lord Asura, weâll at least be able to go through trials and tribulations together with him.â
âSenior, you donât have to urge us anymore. It is Lord Asura who saved our lives. Besides, Lord Asura entered the lake for the sake of helping us. We cannot leave this place,â said Linghu Yueyue.
âBut, donât you think that the two of you will cause an inconvenience for Lord Asura should some sort of mishap truly occur?â
âWith Lord Asuraâs ability, if something were to truly happen, I believe he would be able to escape safely.â
âHowever, if he had to rescue the two of you, it would instead make his escape problematic. It is very possible that the two of you will end up implicating him,â Pang Boâs father said with sincerity.
âYoung ladies, what my father said is very correct. This is not something as simple as going through trials and tribulations together,â echoed Pang Bo.
âYoung miss, what this senior said is not without reason. Perhaps we should first leave this place and wait for Lord Asura outside,â even Linghu Anâan began to urge Linghu Yueyue.
At that moment, Linghu Yueyue revealed a hesitant look.âSenior, could you help me with something?â
Suddenly, Linghu Yueyue looked to Pang Boâs father.
âWhat is it? You can speak away,â said Pang Boâs father.
âNo matter what, bring her away from here,â Linghu Yueyue pointed to Linghu Anâan.
âWoosh~~~â
Then, Linghu Yueyueâs body shifted, and she actually leapt into the lake.
âYoung miss!â
Seeing that, Linghu Anâan immediately leapt forward. She tried to jump into the lake after Linghu Yueyue.
However, before she was even able to touch the lake, when she was still in midair, an oppressive might bound her and forcibly pulled her back. Then, she began flying towards the outside of the valley.
It was Pang Boâs father.
âRelease me! Senior, release me!â Linghu Anâan shouted frantically.
âYoung lady, are you trying to die? That lake is not only poisonous, but thereâs also Ancient Eraâs organisms inside. With your level of cultivation, you will only be throwing your life away after entering the lake,â said Pang Boâs father.
âSince you knew the lake was dangerous, why didnât you stop my young miss from entering it?! Why are you insisting on stopping me instead?!â
âRelease me! Even if I am to die, I must die with my young miss!â
Linghu Anâan was enraged.
âItâs different for your young miss. She has a treasure on her. I could tell that that treasure was capable of preventing the poisonous water from corroding her body, and even allowing her to evade the Ancient Eraâs organisms,â said Pang Boâs father.
âTreasure? Impossible. My young ladyâs treasures were all taken away, how could she still have such a treasure?â Linghu Anâan had a look of disbelief on her face.
After all, she knew that Linghu Yueyueâs treasures were all taken away by the Linghu Heavenly Clansmen. And now, she did not have any powerful treasures on her at all.
âYour cultivation is lacking, thatâs why youâre unable to see things clearly. However, I can tell with certainty that the bottle gourd your young miss held in her hand was emitting a formless spirit formation that protected her within it.â
âThat spirit formation is not only able to guard against the poisonous water, but it is also able to conceal your young missâs aura.â
âFurthermore, itâs effect is most likely going to change somewhat after your young miss enters the lake,â said Pang Boâs father.
âBottle gourd?â
Hearing those words, Linghu Anâanâs expression changed. She suddenly recalled something, and muttered quietly, âCould it be the bottle gourd from Lady Headmaster?â
âLady Headmaster? Could the Lady Headmaster you speak of be the Whiteclothes Nunneryâs headmaster?â asked Pang Boâs father.
âThatâs right. It is our Lady Headmaster who gave my young miss that bottle gourd. Merely, I did not know the usage of that bottle gourd, as I did not hear what Lady Headmaster said to my young miss later on,â said Linghu Anâan.
âIt would appear that your Lady Headmaster is not simple at all,â Pang Boâs father said.
âNot simple? What do you mean?â Linghu Anâan had a look of confusion.
Even Pang Bo asked curiously, âFather, why do you say that?â
At that moment, Pang Boâs fatherâs expression became complicated.
âI donât know if itâs my misperception or something else. However, when that young lady unleashed the spirit formation from the bottle gourd, I felt a familiar aura from it.â
âThat aura is identical to the aura emitted by the Ancient Eraâs organisms inside the lake,â said Pang Boâs father.
âIdentical auras?â
âIdentical to the Ancient Eraâs organisms?â
Hearing those words, Linghu Anâan and Pang Bo both revealed looks of shock.
When Linghu Yueyue was insisting on staying, they all felt that she was really planning to undergo trials and tribulations together with Chu Feng.
However, after hearing Pang Boâs fatherâs words, they suddenly felt that things were not as simple as they had imagined.
