Chapter 245
“Heaven Earth Cage!”
The ground suddenly split apart, and countless tentacles burst out of the ground, their speed like lightning as they swarmed over the Bloodnet Sect Elders .
Those three Elders were all startled, hastily evading . But those tentacles were too quick, and they completely trapped them in an instant .
They tried using their weapons to hack at these tentacles, but they found they were both slippery and tough . It was impossible for them to break them apart .
By the time they could try again, those tentacles had already wrapped around their arms, making it so they couldn’t move .
Long Chen wasn’t looking at that scene at all . With complete disbelief, he emotionally said, “Chu Yao, is that really you?”
His voice trembled with emotion, because that voice just now was extremely, extremely familiar to him .
“Long Chen…”
A light shout rang out . A beautiful figure threw herself into Long Chen’s embrace, bringing with her a fresh fragrance .
“Chu Yao, it really is you!”
Smelling that fragrance, Long Chen felt he was dreaming . He tightly held onto Chu Yao, afraid she would fly away as soon as he let go .
“Long Chen, I missed you!”
Chu Yao was also tightly hugging Long Chen, her voice choked with emotion . After being parted for over half a year, the two were finally reunited .
Long Chen’s innermost heart contained a tender love for Chu Yao . Only he knew just how pitiful she had been back then .
Perhaps it was because the two of their fates had been somewhat similar . But in any case, that just made Long Chen feel even closer to Chu Yao . His feelings for her were a kind of tender, pampering love .
Holding Chu Yao’s beautiful body, he felt warmth coursing through him . Smelling Chu Yao’s fragrance, he felt that there was nothing he would rather be doing at this moment . He was about to ask Chu Yao how she had been when an angry roar rang out .
“b.a.s.t.a.r.d, which sneak attacker did this? Get out here!” The three Bloodnet Sect Elders were completely bound and unable to move .
They still hadn’t found who had done this . They had been instantly trapped, turning them purple from rage . They only now realized that the things binding them were wooden staves as thick as an arm .
The wooden staves were square, looking as if they had been meticulously carved . But after wrapping around their bodies like they were arms, they quickly hardened, becoming as hard as steel .
Runes densely covered the wooden stakes . No matter what the three Elders tried, they were unable to move in the slightest . They could only continuously curse .
At this time, the dust in the air finally scattered . A dozen more people had appeared, looking in shock at the three Bloodnet Sect Elders .
“Did you do this Chu Yao?” Long Chen looked at this scene in disbelief . Hundreds of wooden stakes had sprung out of the ground, tightly binding the three Elders completely, leaving only their heads out .
A pleased smile appeared on Chu Yao’s face . A bright light flowed within her eyes and she nodded .
“Our Skywood Palace received news of the battle and our disciples came out to provide support . But as soon as I saw who was guarding Phoenix Cry, I immediately had a bad feeling . I rushed over here with senior apprentice-sister Hua and saw those three bullying you, so I took action . ”
Chu Yao’s beautiful eyes closely watched Long Chen . From the beginning, it had always been Long Chen protecting her . This was the first time it was her protecting Long Chen . She was full of pride .
“Little fellow, our Chu Yao has taken the sect leader as master . She spends all day and night bitterly cultivating all for a distasteful fellow like you . Tch, you really are blessed . ” Hua Yu, who he had also not seen in a long time, was still as beautiful as ever, and her discourteous manner of speaking to him had also not changed .
Long Chen was shocked, but he was also incredibly moved . Chu Yao must have been doing well in Skywood Palace for the sect leader to take her as an apprentice .
After the three of them had left Phoenix Cry, it seemed he had become the most miserable one . Chu Yao had taken a sect leader as master, while Wilde had taken the sect leader’s uncle-master as master, which in terms of status would make him the sect leader’s fellow disciple .
But he, Long Chen, was still forced to struggle each day for points, constantly rus.h.i.+ng around busily . As the saying went, people from the same place don’t necessarily have the same fates .
He sighed sorrowfully inside, but he was truly happy for Chu Yao . He thanked Hua Yu, “For Chu Yao to reach her current level, senior Hua Yu must have definitely helped her out a lot . I must thank senior for this kindness . ”
“Tch, loathsome . How many times have I said to call me big sister? Don’t make me sound old,” scolded Hua Yu .
Long Chen hastily laughed . “Disciple was rude . Big sister is amazingly beautiful, right in her springtime of youth . Big sister really is the best appellation . ”
Although Long Chen didn’t consider his skin to be thin, but after saying that, he still felt his hair stand on end .
Hua Yu might look to be around thirty years old, but in reality, her actual age was several times what she appeared to be .
Most female cultivators would use a great deal of energy to activate their skin and muscle once they reached Bone Forging, allowing them to slow down their aging .
