The Divine Nine-Dragon Cauldron

2532 Chapter 2,423 — they were ambushed

Not long after.

Su Yu and Yu Xiang Wan arrived at the outskirts.

However, the rendezvous point was empty.

Jiang Xuanzhong and the rest had left a long time ago and were nowhere to be seen.

“What a joke. We’re Only a day late, yet they abandoned us.”Yu Xiang Wan felt how lowly she and Su Yu were in the eyes of the inner sect disciples.

Since they were nowhere to be seen, it could only mean that they had returned to the sect first, right?

It was only a day, and they were not willing to wait any longer.

Su Yu stroked his chin and said thoughtfully, “Don’t be too quick-witted. Even if they left first, they should at least send us a message, right?”

Others might not dare to say it, but Chong Yang still had some admiration for him and Yu Xiang Wan.

They should not have not even said a word to each other.

HM?

Yu Xiang Wan listened to what he said and looked around. Suddenly, she walked quickly to a tree and picked up a leaf.

There was a drop of blood on the leaf.

“It’s Jiang Xuanzhong’s blood!”Yu Xiang Wan recognized the presence of the blood and her heart skipped a beat.

Jiang Xuanzhong was in the early stage of the Nirvana stage. was the verification of his combat strength high?

Someone actually managed to hurt Jiang Xuanzhong?

Moreover, they had no choice but to leave early and did not leave any news for them.

No!

They might not have left early!

Or, they might have been captured by someone!

“Brother Su, I’m afraid they’re in Big Trouble.”Yu Xiang Wan’s expression turned grim.

Needless to say?

“Now, return to the sect immediately! But, it’s best if we don’t return by the same route.”Su Yu’s eyes sparkled.

He also guessed that they might have met with misfortune.

Beep! Beep

However, at this moment, Su Yu and Yu Xiang Wan’s communication device rang at the same time.

When the two of them opened it, they saw that it was a message from the leader of the Golden Armor clan.

“Come and help immediately! There’s a strong enemy attack. The location is northwest of the city.”

Yu Xiang Wan looked hesitant. “Brother Su, are we going or not?”

Even if Jiang Xuanzhong and the rest joined forces, they would not be able to deal with the strong enemy. If the two of them went, how much of an effect would they have?

However, if they didn’t go, the consequences would be severe if the sect learned of their actions of leaving them to die.

“Go!”Su Yu decided decisively.

Although it was unlikely that Jiang Xuanzhong and the others could return to the sect, it was better to be safe than sorry.

If they really went back, Su Yu’s plan to become the hall master would be ruined.

The two of them reached a tacit understanding and immediately headed northwest.

Several hours later.

An extremely violent fluctuation came from the front.

The nearby mountains and rivers had been destroyed and turned into scorched earth.

One could see with the naked eye that there were more than ten corpses lying on the ground.

But in the center of the scorched earth, there were more than twenty people.

Each of them was at least at the middle nirvana stage.

And they were surrounded by Jiang Xuanzhong and the others!

Their bodies were all injured, especially Chong Yang. His body was riddled with injuries and his life was in danger.

Apart from that, huo lixin and ji Xuanling were also in a difficult situation.

Only Jiang Xuanzhong and the Golden Armored Hall master were slightly better off.

However, they were still unable to deal with an enemy that was several times stronger than them.

This was especially so when they were surrounded by an enemy at the early stage of the Nirvana stage.

The unpredictable attacks made Jiang Xuanzhong and the leader of the Golden Armor clan tired of dealing with them, and they were occasionally injured.

It was only a matter of time before they were killed. They would not be able to hold on for long.

“I’ll Go!”Yu Xiang Wan smacked her lips. “Does our Tai Yi faction have any enmity with anyone? Why did they encircle and kill so many strong cultivators?”

Just the number of strong cultivators in the middle stage of the Nirvana stage who were besieging them was comparable to more than half of the leaders of the Tai Yi faction.

Not to mention those who were already dead.

Moreover, what kind of enmity was worth them attacking at all costs?

Su Yu was also puzzled.

The Tai Yi sect was only a small sect and was deep in the southern border. They were usually very low-key.

At most, they would have a dispute with the surrounding Zhengtian sect.

Why would they provoke such a strong enemy?

There seemed to be something else going on!

“Since the two of you are here, why haven’t you made your move yet?”

While they were observing, the leader of the Golden Armor clan noticed the two of them. He brandished his sword and shouted sternly.

Yu Xiang Wan’s eyes flashed with a faint blue light as she sighed. “Brother Su, be careful.”

After that, she leaped and flew over.

Su Yu followed closely behind, his expression unchanged.

When he noticed that there were two more enemies behind him, the strong enemy in the initial stage of the Nirvana stage did not even turn his head. “Go and get rid of them.”

Instantly, two enemies in the middle stage of the Nirvana stage charged at him.

“Kill!”

The enemy on the left was charging at Yu Xiang Wan ferociously. He immediately released his domain that was not weak at all.

It was a domain of poisonous gas. Once it engulfed the enemy, it could quickly turn them into a pile of mud.

Yu Xiang Wan could not avoid it and was enveloped by the domain of poisonous gas on the spot.

However, the scream that she imagined Yu Xiang Wan to make did not appear.

Instead, two sharp blue lights shot out from the hazy poisonous gas.

The blue lights shot out slowly and turned into two circles of light that hit the enemy.

Whoosh

The powerful enemy was instantly surrounded by blue flames and burned into a pile of bones.

Yu Xiang Wan walked out of the poisonous gas. Her eyes were burning with blue flames that had yet to be extinguished.

He lowered his head and looked at his arm. A large area of his arm had been corroded by the poisonous gas.

However, wisps of black gas slowly seeped out and quickly repaired the corroded area.

Looking at Su Yu, it was even easier. Several bolts of lightning swept across and destroyed the opponent until there was no residue left.

The two people’s tragic deaths surprised the powerful enemies who were besieging them.

“The Tai Yi sect does have some good seedlings!”The Nirvana realm expert snorted and sent eight people to kill the two people.

As such, the pressure on Jiang Xuanzhong and the rest was relieved.

They were both surprised and happy.

They were surprised that Su Yu and Yu Xiang Wan, whom they looked down on, had such extraordinary abilities!

They were happy that there was finally a glimmer of hope for them to break out of the encirclement.

Jiang Xuanzhong’s eyes flashed as he secretly sent a message to ji Xuanling, Huo lixin, Chong Yang, and the leader of the Golden Armor Division.

“We should take this opportunity to use the replacement formation to escape.”

Upon hearing that, the others did not have any objections.

Chong Yang was the only one who replied, “We can’t. No matter what, Su Yu and Yu Xiangwan are here to save us. How can we exchange him for the chance to escape when we’re in a desperate situation?”

The so-called replacement formation was a formation that only the inner sect disciples of the Tai Yi sect were proficient in.

They could temporarily exchange the positions of two people in different positions through the sect token.

Both Su Yu and Yu Xiang Wan had the sect’s disciple token.

They were the only ones who could be replaced.

However, if Su Yu and Yu Xiang Wan were to be replaced in an environment where they were surrounded by dozens of people, they might not be able to hold on for long and would die tragically.

They had come all the way here to rescue them, yet they were willing to sacrifice their own lives. It was really inappropriate.

Jiang Xuanzhong said firmly, “Junior brother Chongyang, the bigger picture is more important! The four of us are the future of our sect. At this critical moment, we can only sacrifice ourselves to complete the bigger picture! I believe that the spirits of the two of them will understand us in the future!”

How Shameless was that?

Sacrificing oneself to complete the bigger picture had always meant sacrificing oneself.

However, Jiang Xuanzhong had the audacity to point at others with such a dignified expression.

The most ridiculous thing was that he had even stated clearly that they would understand them after they died.

How could they understand?

Huo lixin said, “That’s right! They won’t sacrifice themselves in vain. The Tai Yi sect will remember them forever.”

Chong Yang was struggling in his heart. Who would want the Tai Yi sect to remember them?

However, they were determined to do so. Chong Yang could not resist.

That was because Jiang Xuanzhong had secretly activated the replacement formation.

A complicated formation appeared in his palm. It was filled with brilliance.

The moment he moved, the same formation appeared in the palms of the others.

The five of them activated the formation at the same time. In an instant, a blinding light burst out.

Su Yu and Yu Xiang Wan, who were dealing with the enemies, suddenly had a strange formation under their feet.

Su Yu’s eyes narrowed as he thought to himself, this is not good.

He wanted to avoid the formation, but there was a powerful force on his body that prevented Su Yu and Yu Xiang Wan from moving.

The next moment, there was a short-distance fluctuation in space, and the positions of the two of them changed instantly.

When they reappeared, they were actually at the place where Jiang Xuanzhong and the rest had appeared earlier.

They were facing tens of enemies.

Yu Xiang Wan immediately came back to her senses and shouted angrily, “You bunch of damn things!”

They had come from thousands of miles away to rescue them, yet they were betrayed!

And it was the betrayal of the people they had saved!

However, countless powerful enemies attacked and instantly suppressed Yu Xiang Wan until she could not breathe.

Especially the attack of that powerful enemy, Yuan Nirvana, which made him look desperate.

However, Su Yu was already prepared. With a wave of his hand, a golden-black giant puppet appeared in front of the two of them.

Roar

The giant puppet let out a loud roar and patted its chest with its arms.

A powerful shockwave swept out in all directions.

All the attacks that came at them were sent flying back.

Even the attack of that powerful expert at the initial stage of Yuan Nirvana also stopped for a moment.

“Thunder!”Su Yu let out a low growl. Eight thunderbolts as thick as mountains appeared on the spot.

Under the sky-covering thunder, several powerful enemies were vaporized into nothingness.

Yu Xiang Wan also seized the opportunity to make a move. Both of her eyes spat out intense blue flames.

The Flames turned into circles of light and hit the enemies.

Every time one of them was hit, one of them would die on the spot!

That was how Su Yu and Yu Xiang Wan managed to fend off this wave of attacks.

However, it was just this wave.

There were too many enemies. When they regained their composure, the strong cultivator in the nirvana stage immediately caught up with the demonic ape puppet that was showing off its ferocious power.

The other strong enemies quickly attacked!

Fortunately, Su Yu had already prepared his next move before he made his move. “Little Qilin!”

Instantly, the little qilin jumped out, stood on Su Yu’s shoulder, and spat out in all directions.

A large stretch of nine Nether Jade Flames was instantly spat out, burning half the sky.

Immediately, dozens of powerful enemies were ignited, and their souls were rapidly burned.

The Yuan nie expert’s scalp went numb, and he said in shock and anger, “What’s going on?”

Their main targets were Jiang Xuanzhong and the other inner disciples.

But why were the two Tai Yi sect members of unknown origins in front of them even more terrifying than the inner disciples?

In just a few rounds, they had killed many of them!

On the other side.

Jiang Xuanzhong and the other three had switched places with Su Yu and the others. They were only facing eight strong enemies in the middle nirvana stage.

The result was obvious.

In just one exchange, they were killed by Jiang Xuanzhong and the others,

as such, Jiang Xuanzhong and the rest broke out of the encirclement.

“Let’s Go!”He did not even look at Su Yu and Yu Xiang Wan who were behind him. He took out his sect’s flying treasure and immediately carried the rest of them away to escape.

The strong man from Yuan Nie was shocked and furious. He looked at the extremely ferocious Su Yu and Yu Xiang Wan, then at Jiang Xuanzhong and the rest who were about to escape.
