821 No Such Ability (1/2)
The Lu Family people really came so quickly!
The Sky Burning blood within his body slowly boiled. Zong Shou tried his best to cover and suppress it, but he was unable to stop it.
The killing intent and vicious intent which resonated with the blood slowly became thicker and thicker.
It was close to taking actual shape as it stabbed right into his heart.
Outside the void, there was a sharp and cold laughter which spread into his eardrums.
”What a coincidence! You are actually here. That's great. There's no need for me to search for you!”
Zong Shou frowned, only feeling his ears hurt. He also knew that he was most probably unable to escape now. As such, he stopped trying to suppress that Sky Burning blood. He unlocked the restrictions within his body.
Then, he saw a giant, black net suddenly spread out in all directions, covering him.
Zong Shou's eyes constricted and his body flashed, turning into a streak of light as he fled into the distance.
In an instant, he tore open the heavy layers of space barriers.
Just as he ditched the huge net far behind him, there were seven flashing, fire red stars.
They were extremely quick, catching up to him in the blink of an eye.
Zong Shou looked at them and he felt terrified. Without hesitating, he flew backwards.
Just as he pulled open a three breath distance, the red dots suddenly exploded.
Red flame tongues spat out from within, sweeping the heavy layers of space all around.
There was even a small sized world not far away that gave off weak spiritual energy and it was directly struck by the red flames. It was crushed and destroyed!
Sky Burning Flame!
Zong Shou's pupils instantly constricted. He also had such an ability, but this was the first time he saw someone use it to such a high level.
This wasn't a power that a Spirit or Celestial Realm expert could grasp. It was probably a fire lighting formed by higher level God Realm experts who sealed their spiritual energy within.
He was able to avoid the strikes of the Sky Burning Flame Lightning, but the net was closing in on him.
It totally covered his way out, restricting him; layers and stacks of space were covered within.
”You are just a Late Spirit Realm cultivator. Facing me and you don't surrender, actually trying to run... what a joke?”
The loud laughter rang out once more through the black net right into Zong Shou's ears.
”You must be joking! Even an ant wants to live, much less men? Moreover, this place is close to the border of the Cloud World. There are tens of thousands of restrictions. This isn't a place for us to fight. He is from the Cloud World, so how can he even be strong enough to fight us?”
Another lower and calmer voice rang out, not agreeing with what the first person said.
”Moreover, I looked at the way he adapted; he does have some ability. It doesn't look like what a Spirit Realm expert can do. If not for Sister Zi'er having used a few of your Red Tribulation Sky Burning Lightning balls, your Heaven Entangling Thread Net might not have been able to capture him.”
”His movement techniques are really decent.”
This time, the extremely cold and hollow voice came from a woman.
”To be able to avoid my Fire Tribulation Sky Burning Lightning, normal Celestial Realm cultivators aren't his opponent.”
”Hey! If he didn't have any ability, how could he try to fight for the Lu Family Head position? Why would Fangjue think about pushing this person out to compete with those few Young Masters?”
The teen with the sharp voice laughed. ”This Fangjue is really ambitious. He took charge of the Cangyan Hall for just a few years and actually dared to participate in our Lu Family Ruler Deciding Battle. Who knows if he really wants to repay the kindness of my Cousin, or is he trying to push him out to die? I heard that two months ago, Third Great Granduncle was so furious he destroyed a few buildings within the palace?”
”That indeed happened!”
A fourth voice sounded out but it was a little calmer, ”However, what does that have to do with you, Lu Kong? We just need to deal with this matter and then go back! This person has already been captured. Do we have to head to Cloud World? After all, Country Ruler Xuanye told us to find out about what this Zong Father and Son did in the Cloud World over this decade.”
”In my eyes, it is better if we don't go!”
The calm middle-aged man opened his mouth once more, ”Taoist Faction, Buddhist Faction, even the Common People's Path, and Sword Sects are rising up in the region. Especially Taoist Faction and Common People's Path, at their peak, they could compare with our Sky Burning Lu Family. This place is under the jurisdiction of Cangyan God Hall. Although Fangjue has been moved away, there are still people in the God Hall who we can use. Things might change if we spend too long here. Anyway, we have already captured Zong Shou. Bring him to Ruler Xuanye and all matters can be explained!”
Zong Shou listened quietly to the few of them speak.
He had many questions in his eyes but they slowly dimmed down.
If they were here to scout for news, then it made sense.
However, if it was to capture and kill him, then four Intermediate Celestial Realm experts were far lacking.
Hearing them speak, it was like they already saw him as their prisoner, a treasure in their hands.
Zong Shou didn't bother, sending spiritual sense all around.
His brow furrowed. This net was indeed a little problematic.
Who knew what it was made of, but one couldn't add strength to the black thread.
