I Accumulate Spirit Roots for My Next Life

Chapter 220: Chapter 120: Escape from the Wei Kingdom

Feeling the momentum of the five pursuers behind him, Li Jizhou frowned slightly.

The substitute puppet could only exert one-tenth of its strength, and at this moment, its flying speed was barely comparable to Zhou Cang’s.

“No matter what, the matter of the Demon Sect in Wei Kingdom must be spread out, or else this trip will be meaningless!” At this moment, Ye Jingyu also sensed a great crisis and had already made the worst plans in his heart.

Of the five behind them, three were at the Late Stage of Core Formation, their cultivation higher than his, and their flying speed very fast, catching up with him was just a matter of time.

And Yu Ziyu and the other two could hardly cause any obstruction to the opponents.

Especially Zhou Cang and Master Han, with their speed, there was almost no chance of escaping.

“I’ll hold them off, you guys go quickly!” Zhou Cang was silent for a moment, then suddenly and resolutely turned around.

At this time, among the five behind them, three Late Stage Core Formation cultivators had already caught up.

“You can’t stop them, I will! You three split up and run; you must make the situation here known to everyone.” Ye Jingyu thought for a moment, then suddenly turned and rushed towards them.

In this critical moment, facing the three Late Stage Core Formation cultivators, Zhou Cang staying behind would be of no use.

Only Ye Jingyu could pose a lethal threat to the Late Stage Core Formation cultivators,

but once he used the Unity of Heaven and Man to strike deadly, not to mention the opponents would be prepared, even if they underestimated him, he could at most kill one.

After that, with two remaining Late Stage Core Formation and the two Middle Stage Core Formation cultivators who would soon arrive, Ye Jingyu would have no power to resist anymore.

Fortunately, by then, Yu Ziyu and the other two should have already escaped beyond the range of their Divine Sense; if they hurriedly fled westward, they might be able to sneak past before the Demon Sect heavily sealed the borders, just as when they came in.

“You alone might not hold them for long; I’ll stay with you. Master Han, junior brother, you must bring the news out alive!” Yu Ziyu also halted, turning to look at the three approaching Late Stage Core Formation Demon Cultivators.

Their momentum in pursuit was so fierce that none of the four were foolish enough to think of sneaking past using their identities from the Alliance or Joyful Sect.

Deploying five Mid to Late Stage Core Formation cultivators at once, it was almost certain that there were some unique Demon Dao methods on the bald pharmacist they had not detected.

The opponent’s intent was clear, determined to obtain what they wanted!

And just as the three in Wei Kingdom and a puppet were being pursued, Li Jizhou had just received a notification that City Lord Situ had invited him to a banquet.

He wasn’t sure if it was a Hongmen Banquet or a strategy to divide and recruit,

and he was pondering possible countermeasures at this moment.

Seeing the heroic spirit of the three who were undaunted by death, he frowned slightly.

Didn’t they prepare the essential Teleportation Talismans for escape before coming to Wei Kingdom?

For those at Late Stage Core Formation, unless they encountered a Great Success Golden Corpse with special marking Secret Techniques, it was just a matter of a Teleportation Talisman; there’s no need for them to face such a life-and-death crisis!

Thankfully, Li Jizhou’s thoughts weren’t overheard by the three, or else they would have been utterly embarrassed.

They really didn’t have any Teleportation Talismans.

Tier Three Teleportation Talismans were priceless in the market; Yu Ziyu and Ye Jingyu had previously also spent a fortune buying some from Li Jizhou.

However, those were used to sabotage the Spirit Vein Corpse Nourishment in the Southern Domain.

In recent years, the Wuxiang Sect and the Alliance had been in a tug-of-war, resulting in Yu Ziyu’s Qingyin Valley fully supplying the Wuxiang Sect, leading to a depletion of resources in the valley.

Meanwhile, Ye Jingyu had been earning rewards from taking on Celestial Punishment assassination missions, but a few years ago, pressured by the Alliance, Celestial Punishment had expelled Ye Jingyu from the organization, and he hadn’t received any rewards in a long time; his resources were barely what he captured from the Alliance, very tight financially.

Therefore, on this venture into Wei Kingdom, neither Yu Ziyu nor Ye Jingyu went to Li Jizhou to purchase Tier Three Teleportation Talismans.

Of course, there’s another reason; they never expected the situation within Wei Kingdom to be like this, so they were somewhat careless.

“Worry not, brave ones!” Just as the three Late Stage Core Formation Demon Cultivators were about to enter the safe area behind them, Master Han immediately took out four Tier Three Teleportation Talismans, one for each person.

“Master Han, these Teleportation Talismans…” The moment Yu Ziyu received the Teleportation Talisman, his eyes suddenly lit up, and when he felt the familiar aura on the Talisman, his gaze towards Master Han showed even more surprise.

Within the territory of the Yan Kingdom, there were a limited number of Tier Three Talisman Masters, and those who could draw Teleportation Talismans were even fewer.

Especially with this aura, it couldn’t be wrong!

“Master Han, do you have a connection with Li Jizhou?”

Ye Jingyu also looked at Master Han with surprise and doubt, but what he thought was slightly different from Yu Ziyu.

“Li Jizhou actually arranged for this person to investigate in Wei Kingdom? Being able to command an Early Stage True Core cultivator, Li Jizhou’s identity might be even more formidable than I thought.”

The matter of the Southern Domain Golden Corpse was discreetly hinted at by Li Jizhou to him.

The emergence of demons in Wei Kingdom was also hinted at by him.

At this moment, this person who entered Wei Kingdom to investigate with them actually carried so many Teleportation Talismans made by Li Jizhou.

This made Ye Jingyu have to think in this direction.

At the same time, he was even more astonished about Li Jizhou’s background!

Zhou Cang was simply ecstatic, as he had never used a Tier Three Teleportation Talisman; it was not something a Fake Pill cultivator like him was qualified to use.

Without any further hesitation, the four of them immediately aligned themselves and activated the Teleportation Talismans.

“Damn it! Who on earth is it?”

“Daring to openly kill our Seventh Grade pharmacist in our Divine Medicine Sect! Not even charm can save her this time!”

“This matter is strange; perhaps that Joyful Sect witch has some great secrets.”

“I couldn’t detect the aura of any sect on the other three; could it be that the Joyful Sect witch colluded with outsiders?”

“You two report to the Medicine Demon Master immediately, as this matter might not be simple. We’ll split up and pursue them!”

Watching as Ye Jingyu and the other three disappeared before their eyes, the five pursuing Demon Cultivators were all furious.

Three thousand miles away, the four of them suddenly appeared and then immediately without delay flew rapidly towards the border of Yan Kingdom and Wei Kingdom.

The situation in Wei Kingdom was already clear, and the forces within were not something the four of them could shake.

As long as they could bring the news out alive, it would be a success.

When they first entered Wei Kingdom, it took them two months to reach the Demon Medicine Sect, but at that time, they nearly stopped and started, observing along the way,

whereas now, all four were moving at full speed.

Ye Jingyu supported Master Han, and Yu Ziyu took Zhou Cang; unexpectedly, in half a month, the four of them would return to the border from when they first entered Wei Kingdom.

At this time, in Liuyun City, Li Jizhou finally took down the seclusion sign, and with a calm expression, he headed toward the City Lord’s Mansion.

Two months ago at the fundraising conference, Situ Yan’s resentment was immense.

Being able to endure and not make a move until now, Li Jizhou believed there must be someone older and more experienced trying to talk him out of it earnestly.

Yet, with his character, regardless of who advised him, it likely wouldn’t work, at most making him calmly consider how to retaliate.

As for the sudden invitation to this second-tier shop owner… Li Jizhou for the moment had no clue, mainly because he didn’t know how many people were invited at once.

Soon, Li Jizhou arrived at the City Lord’s Mansion as per the invitation.

Before he could ask for someone to announce his arrival, a hearty laugh came:

“Hahaha, Chief Shopkeeper Li, no need for formalities, just come right in!”

Hearing this, Li Jizhou’s footsteps slightly paused, his thoughts racing.

Moments later, a smile instantly blossomed on his face as he strode in…
