Chapter 289 Five Elements (1/2)

Gu Caiwei squinted her eyes and said, ”Doyen Bai, where did you hear that from?”

Bai Suhuan replied aggressively, ”It doesn't matter where I heard it from. It's about whether you admit that this is a fact or not.”

Gu Caiwei looked at Bai Suhuan coldly without saying a word.

The surroundings of Jing Qing Tongzi started to combust as a big snake appeared and spiral around the pillar of the hall. The snake starred ferociously at Bai Suhuan as its enormous Qi dynamics spread across the hall.

The vigorous Qi dynamics were about to release. Even if Gu Caiwei and Jing Qing worked together, they could feel that they were about to collapse in pressure like mud.

Like flowing water, the Tiandi Jian released rays of lights throughout the hall.

Bai Suhuan snorted and transformed into a light and departed beyond the clouds.

Gu Caiwei was relieved while Jing Qing Tongzi who was on the pillar was cold sweating. The Tiandi Jian retracted the clear light and dimmed down gradually.

Jing Qing Tongzi said, ”He wouldn't stop right there. We wouldn't be able to stop him even if our powers combined.”

Gu Caiwei sighed, ”Things would get really complicated if we don't hand him the life-prolonging celestial medicine. It's just that this was such a confidential issue, how would he know about it?”

If Bai Suhuan did not have any other intentions, he would have waited for Shen Lian to appear. After all, he was highly experienced and had contributed much to the school over the hundreds of years. Even if he had some minor issues with Shen Lian, he could have just requested for it and Shen Lian would definitely agree to give him the life-prolonging celestial medicine.

But he had to come and charge at Gu Caiwei when Shen Lian's whereabouts were unknown, the old Daoist disappeared, and when her Grandmaster Fairy Ziling was in solitary retreat. This showed that Bai Suhuan was not a very honorable person.

And more importantly, how would Bai Suhuan heard about the incident? Who on earth told him about it?

Gu Caiwei felt a sense of burden on her. Bai Suhuan came by today just to test the waters. He would probably take action in his second trip and what if Shen Lian had yet to return? Considering that Bai Suhuan's end was nearing, there was no way he would give up.

She looked outside of the hall and thought to herself, ”Junior Apprentice-Brother, where on earth are you? What happened to you?”

Never had she ever wished so hard for the young man to walked into the hall with his cheeky smile. Any tensions and pressure would be easily resolved.

Shen Lian had been sitting under the plum tree for quite some time already. He did not manage to return to the state of mind when he was in the deep hole. After that incident, he was still slightly traumatized and he definitely did not want to rely on the innate god to rescue him.

The plum flower fell on the Qingshi Alley and formed beautiful patterns on the ground. The breeze lightly swept past and blew the fallen flowers, followed by a gentle rain that nourished the soil.

Shen Lian starred at the Qingshi Alley and thought to himself, ”The end of this road would be a space barrier. Maybe I should take another look at it.”

With his abilities, it only took him two hours to arrive at the border of the space.

Which was also the end of the Qingshi Alley.

There was no more road ahead as it was the space barrier in front and further out would be the endless void. Shen Lian could see some light ahead but he did not know how far away was the source of the light.
