Chapter 175 These two are people they can't afford to offend.
"I estimate that the Enforcers of the Immortal Alliance will be arriving soon. I wonder what Fellow Daoist Chu's plans are?"
Gu Lin looked at Chu Luobai and said thoughtfully.
"Naturally, we reported to the Enforcement Envoy of the Immortal Alliance that an elder of the Biyun Sect had abandoned the righteous path and entered the demonic path in an attempt to harm his disciples."
"It just so happens that we two met here, and we drew our swords and spoke frankly, but we didn't expect these two elders to be so easily defeated..."
Chu Luo waved her hand, her expression completely innocent.
"Senior Chu...?"
At the entrance of the side hall, Yue Qianshuang, her face deathly pale, walked out, leaning against the crumbling wall.
Her small face was full of worry for Chu Luobai.
She looked around and saw that the terrifying sounds she had heard in the side hall had disappeared.
Apart from Chu Luobai and Gu Lin, there wasn't a single person in sight outside the entire side hall.
Only the bloodstains on the ground and the surrounding buildings riddled with holes proved that she hadn't misheard.
"Elders... has this meant you've given up?"
Chu Luobai walked over and reached out to support Yue Qianshuang, who was swaying slightly.
She knew the power of that soul-locking formation, and Yue Qian Shuang's ability to recover so quickly was truly a testament to her exceptional talent.
No wonder he was able to slaughter an entire mountain in his previous life and escape unscathed, and was even personally recruited by Fu Cheng'an to eventually become a protector of the Hehuan Sect.
only...
Chu Luobai was puzzled, as both elders were dead.
The others from the Biyun Sect clearly had no intention of joining the fray.
Why hasn't the system notified me that the task is complete?
Could it be that Yue Qianshuang has suffered some kind of injury?
Chu Luobai lowered his head, just about to check Yue Qianshuang's body.
Suddenly, she sensed two powerful auras rapidly approaching her location from afar.
Gu Lin, who was standing to the side, also noticed something was wrong. The two exchanged a glance and then got into a fighting stance, staring at the sky.
Two black dots in the distant sky grew larger and larger, rapidly approaching Chu Luobai's location.
Soon, two people dressed in black, with special identity tokens from the Immortal Alliance hanging from their waists, appeared suspended in mid-air.
The two looked down at Chu Luobai and Gu Lin.
"The Azure Cloud Sect reported an enemy attack, and you are..."
Before he could finish speaking, one of them recognized Gu Lin.
He quickly grabbed his companion who was talking, and the two exchanged a glance before swiftly landing in front of Gu Lin.
"I never expected to meet Senior Gu here. I heard that the Biyun Sect was attacked by the enemy. Did you also receive orders?"
Gu Lin looked at the two people in front of him; he was fairly familiar with both of them.
One is named Qu Xiang, and the other is named Ji Jing. Both of them come from small, unknown sects and have only recently joined the Immortal Alliance as law enforcers.
After all, compared to those smaller sects, the Immortal Alliance clearly provides them with more resources.
I thought this area would be the territory of that guy surnamed Gong, but I didn't expect it to be these two who came.
When Gu Lin was still working for the Immortal Alliance, he would help them out of trouble when they were on missions.
With this connection, this matter will be much easier to resolve.
but...
Gu Lin glanced at Chu Luobai without leaving a trace, and spoke calmly.
"I am here on other matters and have not received any orders from the Immortal Alliance."
"What orders did you two receive?"
Qu Xiang and Ji Jing exchanged a glance, both of them showing some difficulty.
"The Biyun Sect sent a message to the Immortal Alliance, saying that they had encountered an enemy attack and that the two elders guarding the mountain were no match for the enemy, so they came to ask for help."
They had assumed Gu Lin was there to help.
did not expect...
Gu Lin is actually the 'external enemy' that the Biyun Sect talks about!
What should we do?
Gu Lin has the backing of the Tianyan Sect and the appreciation of those important figures in the Immortal Alliance, so they don't want to offend him at all.
Upon seeing Chu Luobai to one side, the two exchanged a glance and, after confirming that neither of them had ever heard of this person, instantly made a plan in their minds.
"It seems the elders of the Biyun Sect have misunderstood; Senior Gu must have stumbled upon this place by mistake."
After they finished speaking, the two walked towards Chu Luobai, one after the other.
Gu Lin raised an eyebrow, neither refuting nor speaking, with an expression of watching a good show.
On the other side, Chu Luobai was examining Yue Qianshuang's body.
Only after confirming that the other party had not suffered any problems due to the Soul-Locking Formation did they feel relieved.
Sensing Qu Xiang and Ji Jing approaching, Chu Luobai instantly understood.
It seems that Yue Qianshuang can only be considered truly 'safe' after getting past the Immortal Alliance.
"We are law enforcement officers of the Immortal Alliance. The Biyun Sect has reported an enemy attack. Who are you and why are you here?"
Qu Xiang looked Chu Luobai up and down. Seeing that the other party was dressed in extraordinary clothes and that the sword behind him was also not an ordinary item, he took the initiative to introduce himself.
"I am Chu Luobai, the eldest disciple of the Immortal Lord Xiaoyao of the Qingyun Sword Sect."
Chu Luobai glanced at Gu Lin, who was watching the show, and immediately invoked the name of her master.
Is this kid... waiting for me to beg him so he can do me a big favor?
Upon hearing the name of the Immortal Lord of Freedom, Qu Xiang couldn't help but exchange a glance with Ji Jing.
Well, another one we can't afford to mess with.
They couldn't help but wonder what grudge these two sects' prodigies had against the elders of the Biyun Sect, that they had actually come to fight inside the sect.
Having just finished the battle, Chu Luobai did not suppress the aura emanating from him.
Those old fogies from the Azure Cloud Sect are really clueless, giving them trouble.
Qu Xiang and Ji Jing, sensing this aura, couldn't help but curse inwardly.
Those who can reach the Dao Integration stage at a young age are all treasures of their sects.
Moreover, both the Tianyan Sect and the Qingyun Sword Sect are notorious for protecting their own.
Even if I have truly "upheld the law impartially" today, what if the powerful figures of the Qingyun Sword Sect come knocking on my door...
Without a doubt, those two will be the first to suffer!
"So it's Senior Sister Chu, I've heard so much about you."
"I wonder if Senior Sister Chu has seen those two elders from the Biyun Sect? I think there must have been some misunderstanding in today's conflict. Perhaps our presence can help mediate."
As Qu Xiang spoke, he looked at the chaos around him and felt a little uneasy.
These two elders wouldn't...
He quickly shook his head, rejecting his own idea.
No matter what Chu Luobai and Gu Lin did, they couldn't possibly storm into someone else's sect and beat their elders to death, could they?
"Elder?"
Chu Luobai raised her finger and pointed into the distance. Qu Xiang looked in the direction she was pointing and saw only a pool of blood on the ground.
No way?
A sense of foreboding crept into Qu Xiang's heart.
These two, are they really going to storm into someone else's sect and kill their elder?!
"...Senior Sister Chu, what does this mean?"
Qu Xiang swallowed hard and asked cautiously, praying in his heart that it wasn't what he thought.
"Those two elders, realizing they had fallen into the demonic path and had no more words to say to the world, committed suicide."
Chu Luobai said calmly.
In that instant, Qu Xiang felt as if the sky had fallen.
