Chapter 1718 - Race Against Time
The Divine Mystic Yin Needle pierced through space, leaving only a faint ripple trembling in the air. No one could sense its existence.Ye Linghan was shocked by this. She had cultivated ice-attributed energy for more than a decade, yet she suddenly realized that she couldn't compare to Liu Wuxie at all. She felt like someone displaying paltry skill before a true master.
Although Liu Wuxie's cultivation wasn't high, his battle instincts, the purity of his immortal energy, and his grasp of laws had already surpassed hers by a wide margin.
The two Azure Bamboo Gang disciples guarding the gate didn't even have time to react before the Divine Mystic Yin Needle pierced through their primordial spirits.
After slaying five people in succession, the Divine Mystic Yin Needle finally ran out of energy.
Liu Wuxie moved stealthily like a petal drifting on the wind. He vaulted over the wall with ease and landed silently on the other side, then crept toward the five resting disciples without making a sound. A crimson ray flashed from the Bloodthirst Blade and claimed their lives instantly. Liu Wuxie continued deeper into the valley.
Ye Linghan appeared on the wall and followed Liu Wuxie's movements with a few light taps of her feet.
"What is he trying to do?" She couldn't understand Liu Wuxie's purpose. A conflict between two merchant associations wasn't enough to attract a profound immortal's attention, so she didn't know much about their grudges.
However, she did know something about the Azure Bamboo Gang, which had only risen in recent years.
Only simple rows of houses stood inside the valley. The Azure Bamboo Gang had existed for only a little over three years, so many parts of its stronghold were still incomplete.
Small gangs like this possessed few resources and relied mainly on plunder to survive, a path that could never serve in the long term. Regardless of a clan or sect, any force that wanted lasting development had to establish its own businesses.
Deep into the night, most Azure Bamboo Gang disciples had already fallen asleep, leaving only a few houses still brightly lit.
