In the vast black swamp, two figures floated and sank in the mud.
Yu Hongyin had a cluster of reeds stuck in her hair, while the little maid’s head was covered by a hollowed-out tree root.
The two disguised themselves as plants, restraining their breaths. With the cover of the miasma, even Divine Sense would find it hard to detect anything unusual.
Yu Hongyin’s fair little face was smeared with mud, her eyes fixed on the distant crowd, her brows slightly furrowed, "Something feels off..."
The little maid whispered, "What’s wrong, Holy Daughter, what seems off?"
Yu Hongyin pondered, "Fu Li is naturally cunning and suspicious. With the Sky Scale Guard making such a big commotion, he’s surely aware that he’s surrounded. If so, why would he run to this Sky Miasma Abyss? This action is nothing short of seeking death, unless..."
The little maid asked, "Unless what?"
"Unless he did it intentionally, wanting to lure people here. What exactly is his plan?"
The more Yu Hongyin thought about it, the more uneasy she felt.
With a hand gesture, the two of them silently retreated...
Just as they backed three zhang away, a conflict suddenly erupted!
Chen Mo forcefully struck, tearing Xu Chengbi’s skin and revealing the small and frail figure inside.
Fu Li’s betrayal of the sect happened decades ago; neither of them had seen him in person, but even so, they could sense a familiar aura.
Anyone who practiced Netherworld Sect’s magic would have Yin Yang Qi inside; appearances can change, but the aura can’t be faked!
"It’s him, indeed!"
The two exchanged a glance, their expressions excited.
Now, as long as Chen Mo could hold him off until the sect elders arrived, they would surely capture this beast!
However, what happened next went far beyond what they expected.
First, Ling Ningzhi unleashed a terrifying Thunder Technique, killing all the Mo Lin Crocodiles and striking "Fu Li" into ashes in the process.
Then, Chen Mo, wielding a saber, tore Bai Lingchuan’s skin apart.
He then used the Escape Talisman to pass through the Devouring Element Blood Melting Array, piercing through Fu Li’s true form with a spear...
"..."
Yu Hongyin watched in bewilderment, her throat somewhat dry.
The strength these two exhibited was even greater than during the Heavenly Element Martial Examination!
Though she herself ranked seventh on the Cloud Top Ranking, the gap between her and Chen Mo, and Qingxuan was staggeringly vast, leaving her with a sense of defeat.
"These two monsters..."
Just then, the little maid pointed into the distance, her voice urgent, "Holy Daughter, look over there!"
Yu Hongyin fixed her gaze to see a bronze disc high above in the colorful flames, remaining undamaged by the fierce fire.
"Erosion Light Hourglass!"
Yu Hongyin’s eyes lit up abruptly.
The Netherworld Sect went to such lengths to hunt down Fu Li, not just to clean up the sect, more importantly, it was to retrieve this Sect Treasure!
