After Flirting, He Ran Away And Was Chased By A Witch At The Beginning.

Hidden in the Nine Absolute Space, Lu Bai could only faintly sense the slightest movement from the outside world.

At this moment, the giant sword was still stationary, and it was unknown when it would move.

It probably won't be so soon. So, Lu Bai decided to cultivate and wait.

He took out the Foundation Building Stage Beast Core.

After several days of tempering, his foundation at the eighth level of Qi Refining had become stable enough to break through to the ninth level.

Gathering his thoughts, Lu Bai entered the "Devour" state.

Outside.

In the agonizing wait of Su Liqun and the others, two hours passed, and the distant sounds of collisions and reprimands finally ceased.

"The young master is here."

When they saw the figure of Huayu Lan, they felt a sense of relief.

But.

The young master's condition seemed not so good.

His hair was messy, and a large bald patch appeared on his temple. His face was covered in bruises, and his handsome face had become as ugly as a pig's head. His body was even worse, covered in blood.

Bang!

Huayu Lan landed heavily on the giant sword, and his body staggered.

"Young master, are you alright?"

Su Liqun and the others wanted to support him, but he waved them off.

"It's nothing, just need some rest."

After speaking, Huayu Lan walked towards the room.

But after taking a few steps, he turned back and asked in confusion, "Where's Lu Bai? Why haven't I seen him?"

Su Liqun and the others looked around.

"He was here just now, did he go back to his room?"

"I'll go check." One person hurriedly left.

Soon, he returned, shaking his head. "No sign of him."

Huayu Lan frowned, feeling a sense of unease.

"Search."

"Yes."

Everyone began searching on the giant sword.

If Huayu Lan wasn't injured, his divine sense could cover the entire Sword Mansion. Unfortunately, he couldn't even use his divine sense now, let alone stand firm. He was gritting his teeth to support himself.

Fighting across major realms was indeed not easy.

After a while, everyone returned to their original positions.

"Report to the young master, we didn't find him." Su Liqun's face was filled with anxiety.

Huayu Lan didn't say anything, but his face grew darker.

"He's only at the eighth level of Qi Refining, he couldn't have gone far. We have many people, let's spread out and search, we should be able to find him."

At this moment, Su Liqun and the others finally understood that Lu Bai had run away.

They just couldn't understand why he would do this. Wasn't it good to be the husband of the young miss? Many people would kill for that opportunity.

"Go!" Huayu Lan said helplessly.

A Daoist figure flew off the giant sword and headed in all directions.

Nine Absolute Space.

Lu Bai was immersed in the "Devour" state and was unaware of what was happening on the giant sword.

Crack!

The Foundation Building Stage Beast Core turned into powder.

He was only a little distance away from reaching the ninth level of Qi Refining.

Lu Bai thought for a moment and took out the Gold Core Stage Beast Core.

This one was different from the previous ones. Without needing to devour it, he could feel the surging energy just by holding it in his hand.

If an ordinary Qi Refining stage cultivator were to absorb it, they might not be able to withstand the explosion.

But Lu Bai didn't need to worry about that. With a thought, he began to devour it.

On the Sword Mansion.

People gradually returned.

"Report to the young master, we didn't find him."

"No sign."

"None either."

Listening to the reports, Huayu Lan's expression became even more unpleasant.

"I feel ashamed for all of you. A group of Foundation Building Stage cultivators couldn't keep an eye on a Qi Refining stage cultivator and let him slip away right under your noses."

Everyone hung their heads in shame.

Huayu Lan sighed inwardly.

Lu Bai was the most suitable candidate he had chosen in the past two years, and he was definitely capable of conquering the Mo Yuan Sword.

He wouldn't give up.

After healing his injuries, he would go and bring this kid back.

He couldn't possibly hide in the Clear Heaven Sect forever!

Buzz!

The Sword Mansion started and flew towards the depths of the Jewel River Desert.

After the battle with Xiong Kaishan, the Monster Race probably wouldn't dare to cause trouble for the time being.

In the Nine Absolute Space.

Lu Bai was still breaking through to the ninth level of Qi Refining, unaware that the giant sword above his head had already left.

Boom!

Lu Bai's spiritual power surged.

He finally broke through the barrier of the ninth level.

But he didn't stop.

Because the energy of the Gold Core Stage Beast Core hadn't been completely absorbed yet, it would be a waste to not devour it completely.

After another half an hour.

Lu Bai opened his eyes, a satisfied expression on his face.

What a refreshing feeling!

If there were endless Beast Cores available for devouring, he could stay in the Nine Absolute Space for three to five years without any problems.

Unfortunately, such a wonderful thing could only be imagined.

Huh, they're gone?

At this moment, Lu Bai noticed that the massive object above his head had disappeared.

He thought for a moment.

It would be better to wait a while before going out to avoid any unexpected attacks.

And so, Lu Bai waited for another half a day, making sure that Huayu Lan and the others wouldn't come back, before swiftly leaving the Nine Absolute Space and flying south.

...

Sword Mansion.

Huayu Ping's room.

The beauty on the bed's eyelids twitched.

But there was still a faint, imperceptible black mark on her forehead.

At this moment.

Red sword qi suddenly appeared out of thin air around the black mark.

Sizzling!

Like a gust of wind sweeping away the clouds, under the onslaught of the sword qi, the last trace of the black mark completely dissipated.

At the same time.

Huayu Ping opened her beautiful eyes.
