Zoom!

Lu Bai controlled his flying sword, swiftly passing by.

Why didn't he use the customized flying boat given to him by his master?

Because that thing consumes Spirit Stones at a terrifying rate. It's fine for short distances, but it's impossible to bear for long-distance flights.

So Lu Bai can only rely on his flying sword.

When he came, he hitched a ride on You Lianrou's tailwind sword and flew from Sangyu City to Songhe Country in just three days. But going back, he can only rely on himself, which will probably take ten days.

Ten days!

Who knows what will happen.

Drip, drip!

After flying for a while, Lu Bai sent a message to You Lianrou, hoping for a response.

But each time, he was disappointed!

Two days later, Lu Bai left the range of Songhe Country and entered an endless mountainous area.

He shook his head and smiled bitterly. This stretch of road is not easy to travel!

Rarely visited by people, it is extremely suitable for the Monster Race to act aggressively.

Of course, he doesn't have to go this way. He can also take a detour.

But that would take several times longer.

The night is long, and dreams are inevitable.

Finally!

Lu Bai gritted his teeth and decided to go through.

Shortly after entering the mountainous area, Lu Bai began to feel a very uncomfortable sensation in his heart. At first, he didn't pay attention to it, but as he went deeper, that uncomfortable feeling became stronger and stronger.

Could it be that Su Yun'er's grandmother has already set her sights on him?

Thinking of this, Lu Bai looked around.

But the birds were quiet and the mountains were secluded, with no abnormalities.

Shaking his head, Lu Bai continued to fly forward, thinking that he was probably just being overly nervous and suspicious.

...

In a certain cave.

An old woman with triangular eyes woke up from her meditation.

Hehehe!

She was only one step away from reaching the fifth level of Qi Refining! Once Yun'er brings a few more Blood Pills, I can officially break through.

By the way, last time I had Yun'er pretend to be sick and issued some medical treatment tasks for the sect. I should have caught quite a few unlucky fools, right?

It's been a long time since we last contacted. Let's ask how she's doing.

Huh? No response?

Granny Mashan frowned as she held the communication jade talisman.

Could that bitch betray me?

If she does, I will make sure she has no place to be buried.

Granny Mashan snorted coldly, preparing to use her Soul Control Technique to torment the remnant soul left by Su Yun'er, to see if she dares not to respond to her.

She obtained this secret technique by chance, which is used to control servants and has endless uses.

Hehehe!

After tormenting for a while, Granny Mashan felt that something was off.

Usually, as soon as she used the Soul Control Technique, Su Yun'er would immediately send a signal begging for mercy. Why is there no movement today, even after half a day?

Puchi, puchi!

At this moment, Su Yun'er's remnant soul suddenly made a sound like a candle about to be extinguished in the wind.

Granny Mashan narrowed her triangular eyes. Did Yun'er die?

Otherwise, her remnant soul wouldn't become so weak!

Who killed her?

A cold aura emanated from Granny Mashan. She wasn't particularly concerned about Su Yun'er's life or death, but rather the blood pills that Yun'er helped her refine.

Huh?

At this moment, the remnant soul started shaking. And the more it shook, the more intense it became.

Seeing this, Granny Mashan showed a pensive expression.

Could it be that Yun'er didn't die? She's just seriously injured?

It seems like she's come to find me... Thinking of this, Granny Mashan was suddenly startled!

No, no!

Without my command, she wouldn't have come here on her own.

So... it was a mistake?

And then she was coerced, leading them here.

It must be so!

At this moment, Ma Shan Granny was both panicked and regretful.

If only I had been more cautious and continued targeting Independent Cultivators instead of provoking those sects. I blame my own greed for ignoring the risks.

What should I do?

Run!

Ma Shan Granny quickly collected various items into her storage bag, then rushed out of the cave, fleeing in a direction.

But after running for a while, she felt that something was off. She stopped, took out Su Yun'er's remnant soul, and quietly sensed.

The person didn't go towards the cave!

He wasn't coming for me!

After calming her mind, Ma Shan Granny began to doubt herself. Could I have been wrong?

Hehe! I'll know once I take a look.

Ma Shan Granny changed direction and, guided by the remnant soul, actively approached the person.

Half an incense stick later.

When Ma Shan Granny saw Lu Bai riding a flying sword, she couldn't help but be stunned!

Only at the third level of Qi Refining? So weak?

...

Lu Bai was enduring an uncomfortable feeling in his heart as he flew forward. Suddenly, he felt a burning sensation in his chest, and his spiritual bones trembled slightly.

What's going on?

Hehehe!

At this moment, he heard a harsh laughter in his ears. Then, he saw an old lady with triangular eyes blocking his path.

Lu Bai abruptly stopped and created a safe distance of ten zhang.

"Granny?" he looked at the other person and cautiously asked.

At the same time, he silently sensed the other person's cultivation. The person's blood and energy were surging, and their elemental power was stirring, faintly emitting a sense of oppression. Indeed, they were a mid-level cultivator or above.

However, Lu Bai had thought that Su Yun'er's granny would also be a fox demon, but he didn't expect her to be a human.

Hehehe!

After a strange laughter, Ma Shan Granny said in a sinister voice, "Did you kill Yun'er?"

She didn't see Su Yun'er's figure, so she knew that she was already dead.

"Hand over the Blood Pill, and I might spare your life!" Ma Shan Granny didn't rush to make a move.

Blood Pill? What is that?

Although Lu Bai was puzzled, he remained calm on the surface and said indifferently, "Alright! But I need to ensure my own safety before I can give it to you."

Ma Shan Granny breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this response. It meant that the Blood Pill hadn't been swallowed.

Although refining a Blood Pill belonged to the path of an Evil Cultivator, it condensed a cultivator's blood and energy, providing great benefits to cultivation. Few people could resist its temptation.

After obtaining it, why hasn't this kid consumed it?

I see, his cultivation is too low, and there's a risk of being burst open. So he wants to bring it back to his sect and consume it with the support of his elders.

Hehehe! Heaven is helping me too!

"No problem!" Ma Shan Granny nodded and agreed, "But I need to see the Blood Pill before I can trust you. Otherwise, how would I know if you're deceiving me?"

Lu Bai was at a loss! How could I have a Blood Pill?

Seeing Lu Bai's silence, Ma Shan Granny thought he was trying to play tricks and took a few steps closer to prevent him from escaping.

Frowning, Lu Bai knew that it would be difficult to activate his flying boat at this distance.

"Alright! But I'm afraid you'll snatch it, so step back a bit," Lu Bai said.

After a moment of contemplation, Ma Shan Granny retreated to her original position.

Lu Bai pretended to take out a few pills from his storage bag, tightly gripping them so that the other person couldn't see, and said loudly, "The Blood Pill is in my hand!"

After two seconds of silence, Ma Shan Granny suddenly became furious.

"You dare to deceive me! You must have swallowed the Blood Pill! Prepare to die!"

Lu Bai cursed inwardly!

Fortunately, he had been observing Ma Shan Granny's expression all along. As soon as her face changed, he summoned his flying boat and shot off into the distance.

"Don't run!"

Ma Shan Granny threw out a green vine cane and rode on it, chasing after Lu Bai.
