Chapter 1008: Liaokong (I)
Drops of Pristine Water fell in a steady rhythm within the grand formation, clear light flowing as waves of Heavenly Glow rippled through the air.
As Chi Buhua stepped into the formation, he found it empty of people, with only a golden pagoda standing unmoving amidst the Heavenly Glow.
That must be Liaokong!
Chi Buhua needed no further inspection to know that Chi Zhihu, Wu Weibai, and the others were dead beyond doubt. Suppressing the grief in his heart, he immediately activated the formation, the light in his pupils swirling as he covered his eyes to enhance his vision.
His perception technique was profound indeed, and it allowed him to faintly glimpse figures moving within the Heavenly Glow.
The silhouette of a monk appeared within the pagoda and his resounding voice rang out, "Senior! This man is cunning! I can’t hold him, strike quickly!"
Forming a spell seal, Chi Buhua summoned the glow of Pristine Water into both hands. Looking up, he saw Li Xizhi speeding toward him. It was only after blocking the hazy Heavenly Glow that he caught a tri-colored Heavenly Glow streaking toward him at astonishing speed out of the corner of his eye. It was aimed directly at Li Yuanqin in his grasp!
"You..." This was outside Chi Buhua’s expectations. He faintly heard the youth’s voice, refined yet ice-cold, "I’ll rid Lord Xuanfeng of you, unfilial wretch, first!"
"Damn you." Chi Buhua heard the curse, and in the space of a breath hesitated between saving or not saving him. But the tri-colored radiance was unbelievably fast. In the blink of an eye, it was before Li Yuanqin’s face, piercing straight toward him.
Boom!
