Chapter 484 - 463 First Update
"Ah—" The disciple beside Chang Yu let out a scream so piercingly high it seemed to tear through the sky, startling the other disciples who had rushed over at the sound.
Clutching the Cattail Leaf Fan in his hand, Chang Yu cautiously took a step back. He waved the fan through the air, creating a gust of wind that instantly turned into frost and fell to the ground. He then pulled up the disciple on the ground, and the two of them retreated together, while the disciples of Qiandao Temple behind them also stopped in panic.
"What, what is that?" A disciple couldn’t help but speak, his voice trembling with terror and fear as if spreading a dreadful aura around.
Chang Yu didn’t answer. By now, Chang Yu, who had calmed down, had a vague guess that those two dark shadows were still within the formation. Although they had activated the formation, it seemed they couldn’t escape it.
"Is it, is it those two?" someone in the crowd cried out in fear, but where was there any human shape in these creatures? Their entire bodies were pitch black as they climbed through mid-air. No, more precisely, they were enveloped by a dark red smoke that clung to their bodies, making them appear twice their size.
"It should be, go and call Master—" Chang Yu said, standing before everyone. From the initial panic to now, he had gradually gotten a clear view of the situation inside the formation; aside from these two creatures, there was nothing else in the formation, which reaffirmed Chang Yu’s guess.
Master Ling Yi was sleeping in a daze, exhausted from the days of effort, shifting from initial confidence to gaining nothing. Only then did he realize it was a long-lasting situation and decided to rest.
But in his grogginess, Master Ling Yi suddenly heard a scream. When he opened his eyes, all was silent around him, not a sound to be heard. Just as Master Ling Yi was beginning to question if he had misheard, footsteps grew louder and closer.
Seeing the time, he realized he had slept for not even two Shichen. He simply sat up, draped on his outer robe, and was about to check on the visitor when the person had already burst in.
