Vol.2 – Chapter 36 – Misunderstanding lifted


“What are you doing?!” Chu Liang shouted, his body suddenly springing up.

He had expected the other party to make a move, but he never thought that the Soul Binder of the Underworld Sect, would actually start with a witchcraft!

The Underworld Sect was once part of the Heavenly Star Cult, practicing the unique arts of the Heavenly Star. After splitting and falling into the demonic path, they absorbed some demonic techniques. But no matter what, they were far from witchcraft.

Forbidden Grounds, where all magic is prohibited!

All kinds of divine powers and magical instruments are difficult to take effect.

This situation was somewhat dangerous, but Chu Liang, who had experience with forbidden magic, immediately jumped back, creating a distance of several bodies. He thought to himself that the other party probably didn’t know that he had the strength of ten tigers and the Brick Fighting Technique. If they wanted to win with martial arts, he was not completely without the power to fight.

However, in the situation where the enemy’s reality was unclear, he still chose to first escape from the range of the Forbidden Grounds and notify his master with the Jade Talisman. Since the other party dared to use the Forbidden Grounds, they must have some means, and Chu Liang’s choice was extremely cautious.

The “Sixty” man didn’t say much, not uttering a word.

When Chu Liang was preparing to escape from the range of the Forbidden Grounds, he didn’t just let him slip away. With a flick of his hand, he threw out a rain of silver light!

Hidden weapon?

Shoo, shoo, shoo——

Facing the silver light that was flying all over the sky, Chu Liang immediately used his body technique, dodging and retreating, barely avoiding all the silver needles.

Looking at those silver needles falling on the ground, they instantly softened and turned into worm-like silver threads, quickly burrowing into the ground.

Chu Liang’s scalp tingled at the sight.

This wasn’t a needle, it was clearly a worm!

A Gu worm!

He didn’t dare to think about what would happen if the Gu worm burrowed into his body, and he didn’t want to entangle with this weird opponent any longer. His body moved swiftly, and he was about to withdraw from the range of the Forbidden Grounds.

“Sixty” seemed to be puzzled, muttering to himself, “Reflux Body Technique?”

But as Chu Liang was about to escape, he didn’t hesitate any longer, but chased after him with a leap, his body technique was equally elusive and swift, like a ghost!

Chu Liang was running all the way, and just as he was about to leave the range of the Forbidden Grounds, countless rain-like silver needles shot from behind. He turned around and stumbled to dodge.

He saw “Sixty” wave his hand, seemingly lifting the Forbidden Grounds.

The old witch clan man couldn’t lift the spell because he was dead, but this “Sixty” was alive, and he put away the witchcraft with a raise of his hand.

Then.

He took out a black umbrella.

Whoosh——

As soon as the black umbrella opened, “Sixty”‘s figure paused slightly, and the next second he blinked and appeared dozens of feet ahead!

Such a fast flash!

Chu Liang was shocked. Seeing “Sixty” so close to him, he finally saw that after the black umbrella opened, there was a faint black human-shaped shadow under the umbrella.

A living soul?

The living soul was holding “Sixty”‘s waist, flying forward, hence the teleportation-like body technique. Was this the art of controlling ghosts under the umbrella? How did he know everything?

The speed of this ghost control was second only to the Immortal Jiang’s shrinking ground into inches in the divine powers Chu Liang had seen.

After all, that was pure teleportation.

But even though he was close, Chu Liang already had the Jade Talisman in his hand. With a light press, he could summon his master.

And in front of him, “Sixty” took out a huge curved blade with a silver light, the edge of the blade was a dangerous black color.

Poison.

This weapon further confirmed a guess in Chu Liang’s heart. Seeing “Sixty”‘s figure flashing again and coming to his face, the cold edge of the curved blade was about to reach him.

But Chu Liang’s fingers didn’t crush the jade talisman, instead he shouted loudly, “You are not a Soul Binder, you are a disciple of the Triple Extinction Valley! Do you know that I am from Shu Mountain!”

……

Whoosh——

The curved blade whistled and stopped a few inches above his head, but Chu Liang was not afraid. Just now, even if the other party didn’t stop, he could summon the Green Leaf magical instrument to wrap himself up like a dumpling and fly away to create distance.

Courage comes from confidence.

But the true energy and poison on this blade were already about to touch his hair, which still made him feel a chill on his back.

“You are from Shu Mountain?”

“Sixty” asked, at the same time lifting his helmet, revealing a delicate face.

It was a woman?

Chu Liang was slightly surprised.

The person in front of him, dressed in a black robe, was actually a cold-faced pretty young girl. She had grey-white hair that was short for a woman, reaching just past her ears. Her face was fair, her eyes indifferent, and she looked somewhat childish, which was slightly at odds with her cold demeanor.

Her height was indeed fake. After lifting her helmet, her own body also slightly shortened, and her voice became a light but emotionless voice.

The little girl holding a big curved blade, with a face that didn’t say much, made the scene somewhat strange.

“Correct.” Seeing the other party’s intention to be honest, Chu Liang also lifted his helmet, revealing a harmless smile, “Shu Mountain disciple, Chu Liang.”

The reason he determined that the other party was not a disciple of the Underworld Sect, in addition to the slight suspicion he had at the beginning, was also because of the various divine powers she had just displayed.

Witchcraft, Gu technique, poison technique… It wouldn’t be strange if she knew one of them, but it would be very strange if she knew all of them.Adding the method of controlling ghosts under the umbrella and the curved knife from the Southern Red Territory, they were all unique skills of the Three Extremes Valley. As for the Starry Sky Art and Soul Technique used by the Soul Capturer of the Underworld Sect she had encountered before, she had not revealed any of them.

This made him certain that she was a disciple of the Three Extremes Valley. Thinking about it this way, all her previous strange behaviors made sense.

“Hmm…” The girl with the curved knife pondered for a moment, then nodded, “I believe you…”

Chu Liang smiled slightly. As expected, once he showed his righteous face, he would gain the trust of others.

Then he heard the girl say, “The Soul Capturer of the Underworld Sect must at least be at the Golden Elixir realm. You are only at the third realm, it’s impossible for you to be real.”

“…” So, he gained trust because of his low cultivation level?

“My name is Luo Yao.” The girl put away her curved knife and introduced herself in a cold voice.

“Huh?” Upon hearing this name, Chu Liang found it familiar. He had read about a ruthless and talented female disciple from the Three Extremes Valley in the Seven Stars Mansion before, who had single-handedly slaughtered several evil witchcraft sects.

Was it this young girl in front of him?

Thinking carefully, he had managed to escape for a while by using some tricks, but if she continued to pursue relentlessly, he would have no power to fight back except to call his master and Green Leaf for help.

Her cultivation level should not be lower than Jiang Yuebai’s, and with all kinds of strange and evil methods, she was indeed quite terrifying.

At first, she thought he was a demonic cultivator of the Golden Elixir realm from the Underworld Sect, so she started with the forbidden area, but he escaped using the Backflow Body Technique. If she knew that he was a cultivator of the Divine Intent realm, and came at him with real weapons from the start, he would definitely not be able to resist.

“So it’s Miss Luo, I’ve heard a lot about you.” Chu Liang said with a smile.

“What are you doing here?” Luo Yao didn’t bother with pleasantries and asked directly.

“I learned about the Underworld Sect’s operation from the Soul Capturing Order, and thought I’d come here to eliminate the demonic cultivators.” Chu Liang answered, then asked, “How did you use the Soul Capturing Order, Miss Luo?”

He had only been able to use the Soul Capturing Order because of a fortunate coincidence, where the Soul Capturer had captured his soul intact and stored it in the Underworld Book.

Such coincidences should not be common.

“I captured a wicked Soul Capturer. I originally wanted to extract his soul and refine it into witchcraft materials, but I accidentally discovered that I could use his Soul Capturing Order.” Luo Yao said, “I thought only I knew how to crack this Soul Capturing Order. I wanted to take this opportunity to kill more demonic cultivators from the Underworld Sect and take all their Soul Capturing Orders. I didn’t expect you to discover this method as well.”

“It’s just a coincidence.” Chu Liang gave a wry smile.

I’m not as ruthless as you.

Thinking back to how fierce the Soul Capturer was when he was capturing souls, he was just a toy in front of this young girl, without even the right to be killed.

“Ah, what a pity.” Luo Yao sighed lightly.

“What’s a pity?” Chu Liang asked.

“The elders of my valley are waiting outside. I promised them to capture more souls and give them the Soul Capturing Orders, so we can all infiltrate the Underworld Sect together.” Luo Yao said, “Once this method is discovered, it can’t be used again. They all want to experience it.”

Really?

Do you think this is some kind of amusement park ride?

He could only say, “There will be plenty of opportunities in the future. We can work together to deal with ‘Fifty-Nine’ and the Earth Evil Envoy.”

Luo Yao said casually, “I can handle the Soul Capturer myself. As for the Earth Evil Envoy… he’s at the fifth realm, not easy to deal with, I need to think of a way.”
