Chapter 920: Chapter 366: Battle in the Fog

Lu Luanti saw the demeanor of the Suanni Lion and secretly snorted.

This Suanni’s temperament is quite proud, somewhat like its master.

Don’t be fooled by Little Sister Chu’s sickly delicate appearance and gentle demeanor; she’s normally a graceful and serene person.

But over time, one would realize that she is actually a very confident, even arrogant person.

Lu Luanti sometimes even harbors absurd thoughts.

Could it be that Little Sister Chu’s indifference to people and events, her calm and composed demeanor, stems from the fact that deep down she simply doesn’t regard these people or events?

Lu Luanti always senses something abnormal in the girl’s conduct, vaguely possessing the majesty of Qi Swallowing Thousand Miles and possessing a commanding presence.

But she might just be overthinking.

Lu Luanti’s expression soon changed, following the Suanni Lion’s gaze.

In the next moment, three figures emerged from the clouds and mist.

Lu Luanti raised her eyebrows involuntarily.

She recognized these three as loose cultivators affiliated with the Great Black Sky Rijialuo.

Two of them are Fourth Grade and one is — a Third Grade!

This is Demon Extinguishing Sword Cao Zhongyan, a devil frequently active in the Jizhou area, but not listed in the Earthly List.

Among the Heavenly List’s top 100 ranked by Debating Martial Arts Machine and the Earthly List’s top 500, many Third Grade masters have not entered the Earthly List — Cao Zhongyan is one of them.

Although he hasn’t made the Earthly List, he is still a relatively dangerous opponent for Lu Luanti.

Even if their cultivation has been suppressed by golden rules to the Fifth Grade realm, their physical prowess and martial arts skills remain extremely strong.

After emerging from the thick mist, the three paused while staring at the bodies on the ground.

Cao Zhongyan squinted his eyes slightly, examining Lu Luanti: “Did you kill these two?”

Lu Luanti chuckled, flicking the Peacock Blade in her hand with a beautiful flourish: “Not just me.”

The Peacock Blade in her hand was crafted with the Peacock Tail Feathers brought back by Chu Xisheng, personally forged by Li Tiangong.

Its design is reminiscent of the Yan Ling Saber, the blade shimmering with five glorious colors, strikingly beautiful, captivating.

In the dense fog where visibility is null, it glimmers with an illusionary hue.

Cao Zhongyan directed his attention towards the Suanni Lion.

This ought to be a Suanni Divine Beast summoned through a Summoning God ritual, with an unusually dangerous aura — both its true intent and divine form are evident, a testament to the sorcerer’s extraordinary talent.

“Tsk tsk! A Sixth Grade Suanni, yet it has condensed such powerful Bing Fire Heavenly Rules, this sorcerer truly is remarkable; which super-grade Suanni could they have connected with?”

As he spoke, Cao Zhongyan flicked his sleeve, causing his two companions behind him to flicker towards the Suanni Lion’s spiritual power trail.

The saying ‘shoot the horse before the person, seize the king before the thief’ applies.

The best approach to these summoned divine beasts is not to engage them directly but to kill the sorcerer first.

Otherwise, regardless of how many times they slay the Suanni Lion, it will quickly regenerate, rendering their efforts futile.

“You all intend to kill the sorcerer?” Lu Luanti seemed surprised, then her expression turned sour: “Do you take me for air?”

At her words, the Suanni lunged at one of them.

It was surrounded by Bing Fire Heavenly Rules, igniting everything it touched; whether it was the white mist or the jade on the ground, all burned fiercely — even the Fourth Grade martial cultivator’s Gang Qi began to blaze.

Cao Zhongyan’s expression changed slightly, realizing he had underestimated the Suanni.

It’s not just Bing Fire; there’s burning!

It was close to transforming Bing Fire into Sky Burning, only a bit lacking in Li Fire and Ding Fire; unable yet to derive this all-consuming powerful heavenly rule.

But in just an instant, Cao Zhongyan’s attention was drawn back to Lu Luanti.

At this moment, Lu Luanti transformed into a streak of five-colored light, darting towards another person.

Cao Zhongyan sneered, suddenly unleashing countless needle torrents from within his sleeve, bombarding towards Lu Luanti.

His goal had never been the sorcerer; rather, it was to use these two as bait, creating an opportunity to kill Lu Luanti.

Great Black Sky Rijialuo’s background is profound, a super-grade power.

That is the reason Cao Zhongyan was chosen to enter, not someone else — there was a reason.

Though not on the Earthly List, Cao Zhongyan confidently believes no one below the Earthly List’s top three hundred can defeat him.

He practices the Thirty-Six Hand Wind-Breaking Divine Needle technique, which combines Sky Breaking and Xunfeng, making the needles swift as wind, and nothing is unbreakable!

The long needles are crafted by a highly-skilled Artifact Master, hollowed with poison inside.

Cao Zhongyan is confident he can kill this woman in a single round!

But just then, Cao Zhongyan saw a giant peacock appear suddenly behind Lu Luanti.

The peacock spread its tail, showcasing countless gorgeous tail feathers, resembling a luxuriously beautiful bluish gauze fan.

The crucial part was the gleaming eye spots on those tail feathers.

At that moment, those eye spots seemed to open as real eyes, staring at him.

What is this thing?

Cao Zhongyan’s pupils instantly lost focus, not only falling into layers of illusions but also losing Lu Luanti’s whereabouts.

Though his divine sense is profoundly strong, he escaped the illusions in an instant, only to find the needle torrents he sent forth all landing in empty space.

Both of his companions had died, one burned into a torch, the other sliced into five pieces by Lu Luanti’s Five-Colored Wheel Blade.
