Chapter 798: Seeing the Yellow Springs Again
"Something's off."
The moment Tan Qingfeng lifted the seal, Chu Liang felt that something wasn’t right.
If the iron-eating beast truly had such immense spiritual energy, Tan Qingfeng could have lifted the seal earlier and there would have been no need to let it get beaten by the golden peak beast.
By concealing the iron-eating beast’s strength, who was he trying to fool? The Jiuli Tribesmen outside? No. He wanted to keep it hidden from the people of Mount Shu!
If the Mount Shu Sect had known the iron-eating beast possessed such power, they would never have allowed Tan Qingfeng to bring it along. They might have even assigned an eighth-realm cultivator to keep it under control, ensuring that Tan Qingfeng had no opportunity to make any sly moves.
Now that he had only unsealed it after arriving here, whatever he was planning must have been something the Mount Shu Sect would never approve of.
"Stop!" Xu Ziyang shouted, raising his polearm as his index and middle fingers pointed forward, unleashing a surge of sword qi toward Tan Qingfeng.
In an instant, Tan Qingfeng's figure was engulfed by the blinding sword light.
Xu Ziyang caught on just as quickly as Chu Liang. Since he had been closely watching Tan Qingfeng, he reacted even faster. The instant the iron-eating beast unleashed its powerful spiritual energy, Xu Ziyang had already sprung into action!
However, Tan Qingfeng neither dodged nor attempted to evade. Instead, he took the attack head-on.
Pfft!
