Who brought this guy into the monastic circle?.

Hun Bugui chattered incessantly the whole way, especially sighing as he looked at Shi Xiu.

How did he end up with such a burden?

"From now on, can you listen to me and stop doing reckless things?"

He sighed suddenly, glancing back with lingering concern. Xia Wuyou and the others were secretly protecting him in that direction. Unless they encountered Jiuyou or Di Liuxin from the Heavenly Dao Sect, their safety should be assured.

But just as he feared, his worst nightmare came true. He had barely entered the eastern border of the Central Continent by less than a hundred miles when a violent commotion erupted continuously.

A group of about a hundred Yama Palace cultivators were being slaughtered by the Heavenly Dao Sect, losing their armor and weapons.

The reason was simple: three junior elders had infiltrated the Heavenly Dao Sect's team.

This is a truly life-threatening situation.

Hun Bugui grabbed Shi Xiu and turned to leave, but suddenly some clever person in the Yama Palace shouted.

"The Palace Master has arrived!"

You bastard, you never think of me when things are going well, why are you calling me when things are so critical?
Hun Bugui was so angry that he gritted his teeth and wanted to leave, but he could no longer leave.

Even the cultivators of the Yama Palace could spot him, let alone those three junior elders.

They had already been caught up the moment they turned to leave, and now they were completely surrounded.

Without saying a word or even starting the fight, the three junior elders immediately raised their Dharma images and began to attack.

As soon as Hun Bugui and Shi Xiucai summoned the Dao Palace Dharma Image, they clashed in close combat. Just like when Chang Geng dealt with them, they were still restrained. In the blink of an eye, the Dao Palace was smashed down one after another.

"run!"

Hun Bugui was on the verge of tears. He had only come to gather some information, but he was so unlucky. He grabbed Shi Xiu and turned around to break through during the gap in the enemy's formation.

Several beams of light chased after them one after another, and in a short while they were dozens of miles away.

Hun Bugui shouted loudly, yelling towards the distance, "Retreat!"

Before Xia Wuyou and his companions could understand what was going on, they were startled by the array of people behind them.

Three Divine Realm experts!
Wow! What incredible luck to run into someone like this?

Without needing to think further, the group turned and ran, the speed of the mechanical Dharma Image reaching its peak at this moment.

But no matter how fast they were, they couldn't compare to the speed of a Divine Realm expert. Before long, Hun Bugui and Shi Xiu swept past from the side, leaving them behind.

This turned out to be Xia Wuyou and his group bringing up the rear.

The three junior elders also attacked without hesitation upon seeing the people from Zhongzhou. They had a lot of grudges against Han Yu for killing them, so how could they possibly hold back when they suddenly encountered his people?

At the same time, the three magicians attacked simultaneously.

"Amitabha Buddha, fighting is prohibited here."

A Buddhist chant rang out from the group, and it was the monk who spoke.

With the help of the power within the magical artifact, the area of ​​the forbidden battle expanded instantly, completely covering a three-mile radius.

The three Dharma images, which were about to make their move, suddenly stopped. Before the people of Zhongzhou could even rejoice, the three of them let out a cold laugh, and their spiritual power surged, instantly breaking through the power that had forbidden them from fighting.

The disparity in strength was too great, so it was ultimately useless.

Xia Wuyou also made a move. Although the mechanical Dharma Form could not enhance the abilities he obtained from the pills, it allowed him to use it across borders.

As the ethereal jade pieces fell, three tight bindings were simultaneously applied, barely managing to control the opponent for a moment. However, due to exhaustion, the opponent was instantly freed.

The three junior elders first clutched their heads and struggled for a while, then left, each exuding a murderous aura.

Xia Wuyou cursed out loud, "Damn it, if it weren't for the pressure of their cultivation levels, I could have easily killed them."

"let me!"

Wang Ye suddenly pulled him away, opened his mouth wide to face the three charging elders, and the Burning Heart Flame spread out from his body through the mechanical Dharma Image, covering the void of his face, which barely blocked the opponent's attack.

However, the effect was still not significant. Just as Xia Wuyou said, Zhongzhou lost because of the difference in realm. Anyone who could reach their level was a genius created by Zhongzhou.

On the other side, Hun Bugui had run dozens of miles away when Shi Xiu suddenly grabbed him.

"What are you doing?" Hun Bugui froze, somewhat exasperated. Those Central Continent people might not be able to hold him off for long. If he didn't hurry, those three junior elders would probably catch up again.

Shi Xiu's face was somewhat ashen, and he said in a sullen voice, "We have nowhere to escape."

How could there be nowhere to escape? If we escape now, how could it be too late?

Hun Bugui tried to pull her away to continue their escape, but Shi Xiu still refused to leave.

"Don't you understand? We can't go back to the Underworld. Even if we did, we would still die. If we can't stay here either, then there really is nowhere for us to go."

Shi Xiu looked melancholy and gave a bitter smile for a while.

While the Soul's Departure technique can indeed save one's life, how long can it last? If it escapes today, it will also be unable to return to the Central Continent.

Moreover, Zhongzhou did keep its promise and did not use them as cannon fodder.

"I want to go back."

Shi Xiu's sudden words terrified Hun Bugui, turning his face green with fear.

If she goes back, it's the same as her going back herself.

What the hell is the difference? He was just saying to listen to him and not to mess around, and now he's doing this again.

Shi Xiu gave Hun Bugui no chance to react, turning around and quickly leaving in the direction they came from.

Hun Bugui gritted his teeth. What could he do but follow?

That bastard Han Yu, how could he possibly make such a elixir to swindle people?

Xia Wuyou and his companions suffered repeated setbacks. Just as the three Dharma forms of their opponents were breaking through the Burning Heart Flame, a Dao Palace suddenly appeared, blocking their way.

"A despicable trick!"

One of them couldn't help but sneer. With a slap of his Dharma Image, he sent the Dao Palace flying again. Just as he was about to make his move, another Dao Palace came crashing down from the sky, accompanied by an angry shout.

"Get the hell out of here."

Immediately, Shi Xiu and Hun Bugui reunited and began fighting each other again.

Xia Wuyou and the others had strange expressions. They really didn't expect these two guys to have a change of heart and come back. In a moment, they also joined the battle.

"What are you all doing here? Go back and get your men!"

Hun Bugui was filled with anger and had nowhere to vent it, which was really frustrating, especially when he saw these guys who dared to come up and help him without knowing their own mortality. He was almost furious.

"No need, let's hold on a little longer."

Xia Wuyou shook his head. From the very beginning, his other hand had been constantly pressing a token inside the mechanism.

Yes, it's the area around the Ziqiang Sect.

Otherwise, why would Mu Zili send him out? It's because he can summon people remotely.

Since he didn't run away, it means he was absolutely certain that Han Yu would arrive as soon as possible.

All they have to do is stall for time.

"Attack with all your strength!"

With a long roar, Xia Wuyou activated the Tightening Hoop once again, exceeding its previous level. The entire mechanical Dharma Image emitted a piercing roar, and all the ethereal jades instantly fell off.

A continuous stream of power surged into his sea of ​​consciousness, which was naturally too much for the small area, about the size of a lake, to handle. So Xia Wuyou decisively released all of this power at once.

This time, the tightening effect was exceptionally strong.

The three junior elders simultaneously clutched their heads and retreated frantically. At the same time, Faxiang was quickly summoned back to his side to stand guard.

Wang Ye also went all out, using all his Void Jade. With the entire Dharma Image operating at overload, the Burning Heart Flame erupted again, and the vast sea of ​​fire even completely blocked the three's escape route.

Hun Bugui was already stunned. Damn it, it's one thing for Han Yu to risk his life, but why do people from Zhongzhou all like to risk their lives?

Who taught them to fight like this?
Using all your strength at the drop of a hat, aren't you courting death? (End of Chapter)
