Gao Wu: Others practice martial arts, but you cultivate immortality?

On the way back to No. 1 High School, Chu Yuan also got the answer to the question he had just asked Jiang Fei;

In other words, "What are the people from the Zhenwu Bureau doing?"

People from the Zhenwu Bureau are fighting...

A streak of light followed a blur of shadows as they hurtled from afar, crashing into an office building almost simultaneously!

With a deafening roar, debris flew everywhere! The building slowly collapsed!

Chu Yuan's pupils contracted as he was startled to see what appeared to be other figures inside the building...

But now, of course, no one cares about them, and so these figures are buried in despair by the dust and smoke.

Lost in thought, he glanced up at the six crimson pillars of light in the sky, activated his Luo Yan Steps, and dodged the battlefield in a few flashes...

.......

"Chu Yuan! Why are you back again!?"

At No. 1 Middle School, Qi Da watched Chu Yuan approach from afar, feeling somewhat anxious.

He had previously told Ma Hui that Chu Yuan "did not desert his post."

But in reality, he wanted Chu Yuan to leave, because wherever he went would be safer than the current No. 1 Middle School.

After all, Chu Yuan was just a student and had no duties... so how could he be considered deserting in the face of danger?

Qi Da seemed to have thought of something, and before Chu Yuan could answer, he anxiously said, "Chu Yuan! Go to No. 2 Middle School quickly! Find the people from the Zhenwu Bureau and tell them I sent you!"

Chu Yuan was confused, but still asked, "Principal, after those six pillars of light in the sky converge, the Blood Draining Array will become a Blood Sacrifice Array, right?"

"Where did you know that? No... this isn't the time to talk about that, hurry up and get to No. 2 Middle School!"

Ma Hui still made a decision: to select some people who were "worth saving" and have them personally escorted by martial artists from the Zhenwu Bureau to break through the encirclement.

If Chu Yuan had taken a closer look at the situation, he would have noticed that several familiar figures, including Yang Yi, were no longer there.

"Chu Yuan, you guessed right. After the six Blood-Sucking Arrays are merged, they will become the Blood Sacrifice Array!"

"At that time... everyone in Chenyang City will die!" Yan Xuan, shrouded in blood-red patterns, said mockingly, "Your talent is not bad. I'll give you a chance to live... join us."

"Join you?" Chu Yuan was no longer in such a hurry after receiving confirmation. Instead, he looked at Yan Xuan curiously and asked, "So you killed Li Chen and framed me... just to make it impossible for me to stay in Da Qin, so that I would join you?"

"That's right, that's how it is."

"I have a question... Aren't you afraid of Qin's retaliation? Chenyang City was destroyed by you, Qin will definitely hunt you down with all its might;

Even if I join you, won't I still be doomed?

"Chu Yuan! Don't listen to his nonsense, hurry to No. 2 Middle School! There's someone... who can help you escape from Chenyang City!" Qi Da's tone was tinged with anger. He felt a little heavy-hearted, worried that Chu Yuan might make some irrational choice.

Even if it's just to save your life... a traitor is a traitor. No matter what high-sounding excuse you make, you're still standing on the opposite side of the Qin Dynasty.

"Look, Chu Yuan;"

Such hypocrites!

They said they were protecting you martial arts geniuses to escape, but who knows... isn't this just a legitimate excuse for those martial artists from the Zhenwu Bureau to desert?" Yan Xuan's blood-red face twisted, and he sneered, "Now I can answer your question. After we've settled things here, someone will take us to the outer battlefield!"

Even if the Qin Dynasty wanted revenge, they'd have to find us first!

"So that's how it is..."

"Bullshit! Do you think the Zhenwu Bureau is like you bedbugs in the gutter?" Zida retorted angrily.

"Hehe~"

Chu Yuan didn't care what Yan Xuan said; he was just waiting for the blood sacrifice formation to be completed.

However, his original plan was to get closer to the center of the formation with Zidane's help... namely Yan Xuan.

But now it seems he has a second, even easier option...

Chu Yuan hesitated, "If I join you... will I really survive?"

"Of course! We also need fresh blood..." Yan Xuan said cheerfully, glancing at Zidane provocatively.

"Chu Yuan!?" Qi Da looked at Chu Yuan in disbelief, his eyes filled with heartache and anger;

He couldn't believe that the student he had placed so much hope in would actually make such a choice!

"Hahaha, that's right! Join us and you'll survive!" Yan Xuan laughed wildly, "Chu Yuan, you made the right choice!"

Don't be afraid of this old dog; he can't do anything to you right now!

Chu Yuan then noticed that even though Qi Da was angry, he hadn't moved his feet at all;

There seemed to be energy ripples beneath his feet, resisting the energy of the Blood Draining Array.

Chu Yuan's eyes flickered, and he spoke cautiously, "I... can join you, but I have conditions!"

"Speak," Yan Xuan said, looking at Qi Da's expression with a sense of satisfaction, appearing exceptionally generous.

"Let them go." Chu Yuan looked at the crowd not far away;

At this moment, apart from the teachers who were at the Inner Breath Realm, most of the other students had fallen into a coma.

Judging from their condition, they seemed like they could die at any moment;

"You mean well, but will others appreciate it?" Yan Xuan said sarcastically.

Chu Yuan naturally saw the resentment in Huang Bo's eyes, and he said calmly, "Whether they appreciate it or not is none of my business."

"Chenyang City has over a million people who can be sacrificed, so losing a few... shouldn't be a big deal, right?"

Yan Xuan thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I can agree to that."

These people from No. 1 Middle School are indeed nothing compared to Chu Yuan's value;

At the beginning, Yan Xuan instructed his men to target Chu Yuan, which was just a casual move.

It would be best if it worked out, but it's okay if it doesn't...

Who would have thought that Chu Yuan could become a martial artist at the Inner Breath Realm in less than a week?

Yan Xuan was once a genius himself, so he naturally knew how terrifying this talent was!

"Also, my family is going to be taken to the outer battlefield!"

"Of course," Yan Xuan said with a smile. Without this condition, he wouldn't have felt at ease with Chu Yuan.

"However, the blood sacrifice formation doesn't distinguish between friend and foe. Since you want to bring your family... shouldn't you bring them here first?"

"With your strength, couldn't you have gone to meet them during the final evacuation?" Chu Yuan retorted.

"......Can."

"One last condition..." Chu Yuan's eyes flashed, and he said in a deep voice, "I want a share of this blood sacrifice array too!"

"This one won't do!"

"You should know that with my martial arts talent, I would obtain countless resources in the Qin Dynasty!"

"There's no reason for us to offer you anything after you've pledged allegiance to us, is there?"

"At least you'll live!"

"Yan Xuan, have you thought this through?"

"I've only been cultivating for a week, yet I've already advanced to the Inner Breath Realm. How long will it take to surpass you?"

"..."
