Chapter 536 - 243: The Might of the Undying Golden Body
The moment Shang Xiaohan, who was puzzled about why Chu Ning had suddenly stopped, heard his words, she was momentarily stunned.
She focused her gaze towards the left front of both of them, but saw nothing in the air.
"Senior Brother..."
Shang Xiaohan was about to speak when, in the next moment, her beautiful eyes widened in shock.
A figure suddenly appeared in the left front.
This person seemed to be about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, wearing luxurious attire, looking like a wealthy nobleman’s son.
His appearance was handsome, yet his face carried a trace of wickedness.
Especially when he looked at Shang Xiaohan, his gaze carried a teasing intent, as if seeing prey.
This made Shang Xiaohan instinctively feel a wave of disgust.
However, when she clearly saw this young man’s cultivation, her expression tightened involuntarily.
This person was unmistakably a Golden Core Cultivator.
At this time, Chu Ning, who also saw this young man’s appearance clearly, cupped his hands slightly and said:
"Ah, turns out to be a Golden Core expert. I wonder, what instructions you might have for stopping us juniors here?"
Chu Ning didn’t directly mention his sect, as he wasn’t sure of this young Golden Core Cultivator’s background.
If it turned out he was an enemy of the Jiuhua Sect, revealing his sect could be counterproductive.
The luxuriously dressed young man, facing Chu Ning’s inquiry, cast a puzzled look at Chu Ning.
"I don’t know why, but I feel a certain familiar aura from you, and it doesn’t sit well with me."
Hearing the words of the luxuriously dressed young man, Chu Ning’s gaze shifted slightly.
What the luxuriously dressed young man said was exactly what he had been thinking.
This young man indeed gave him a peculiar sense of familiarity.
However, Chu Ning was very sure that he had never met this luxuriously dressed young man before.
At this moment, the young man’s gaze moved away and landed on Shang Xiaohan.
Then, in a lazy voice, he said:
"Leave this female cultivator behind, and you can scram!"
Upon hearing these words from the luxuriously dressed young man, both Chu Ning and Shang Xiaohan’s expressions changed slightly.
Before they could speak again, the young man spoke once more:
"I know your sect background, but it doesn’t matter.
Any female cultivator that the Profound Yin Sect fancies, you better not think about escaping.
This girl’s Profound Yin aura fits perfectly to be my tripod furnace."
Upon hearing this, Shang Xiaohan’s face turned pale, yet she still shouted furiously:
"Profound Yin Sect? You’re with the Demonic Alliance?"
Chu Ning felt a sinking sensation in his heart at this moment; Profound Yin Sect is among the top three forces in the Demonic Alliance.
Many cultivators in this sect are especially skilled in the Yin Yang Replenishment Skill.
It seems this person must have cultivated such a technique.
Judging by his appearance, he is clearly more than just beginning in the Golden Core Stage, possibly the strongest opponent I’ve encountered.
If it were just me, it would be fine, but Shang Xiaohan is also here...
Thinking of this, Chu Ning stood silently in front of Shang Xiaohan.
Simultaneously, through telepathy, he said:
"Junior Sister Shang, listen to my words now, don’t show any other expressions, and don’t communicate telepathically, to avoid being detected by him."
Chu Ning had to give prior instructions. His Divine Sense was strong, and combined with the Refining Spirit Technique, using telepathy, the luxuriously dressed young man couldn’t hear.
Shang Xiaohan might not be so fortunate; if she spoke up, this Golden Core Cultivator might hear her.
Without waiting for Shang Xiaohan to respond, Chu Ning continued:
"In a moment I’ll make a move to hold him off, you must quickly head back to the sect.
Don’t make any stops along the way, even for a Golden Core Cultivator, it’s not easy to kill me.
But if you stay here, I’m afraid I can’t divide my attention to protect you."
Upon hearing Chu Ning’s words, Shang Xiaohan’s gaze flickered several times, wanting to say something, but she ultimately did not, remembering Chu Ning’s earlier words.
If it were before today, although knowing Chu Ning could kill Golden Core Cultivators, the young man before them was obviously very powerful.
Shang Xiaohan naturally thought about trying to help here.
But having seen Chu Ning’s means to kill a Tier Five Demon Beast today, she was full of confidence in this senior brother from her sect.
She also understood that the cultivation gap between her and the two was too large, staying would indeed be a burden.
Chu Ning, having finished his telepathic message and received no response from Shang Xiaohan, knew she must have listened.
Immediately, he reached towards his Storage Bag.
The luxuriously dressed young man watched Chu Ning’s movements and laughed disdainfully:
"Seems like you’re not giving up until you reach the Yellow River! In that case, I’ll send you on your way!"
"Swoosh!!"
Just as the young man’s words fell, five or six talismans shot out rapidly in front of Chu Ning!
Simultaneously, the Withered Leaf Flying Blade was hidden among them.
As Chu Ning launched his attack, behind him, Shang Xiaohan immediately flickered and executed a flying escape.
"Trying to run? Do you think you can escape?"
The young man sneered, and with a flicker, his figure vanished.
All the talismans and the Withered Leaf Flying Blade sent by Chu Ning were missed, and as he controlled the talismans and the flying blade to try to attack the young man.
The young man was already pursuing Shang Xiaohan.
But while his speed was fast, Chu Ning’s wasn’t slow either.
With a flash, Chu Ning appeared in front of the young man, both hands raised high, and with the Double Fire Ring in hand.
A Red Flame Beast shot out from the Double Fire Ring, pouncing towards the young man.
Chu Ning’s speed was unexpectedly fast, clearly taking the young man by surprise.
