Chapter 1023: One thousand and twenty-one, in a dilemma.
"Don’t worry!" Luo Shu said confidently. The formation she and Hanmo had set up was not just any ordinary formation. Unless the opponent also practiced Ancient Formations.
Seeing Luo Shu’s confidence, the hearts of everyone present eased slightly.
Lin Jue deliberated for a moment before looking at Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo, "You should already know the reason why the Top Ten Sects are targeting the Liangyi Sect this time, right?"
Luo Shu nodded, "Their goal should be Hanmo and me. Since we were able to complete the task of obtaining the Star Origin Fruit, they are certainly speculating whether we might harbor some hidden secrets." She had already learned the purpose behind the Top Ten Sects’ attack on the Liangyi Sect when Elder Mu mentioned it.
Back when she and Hanmo undertook the Star Origin Fruit mission, they had already harbored such concerns. What they hadn’t expected was the Top Ten Sects to resort to such despicable tactics.
Lin Jue nodded slightly, "If the Mountain Protection Array cannot be broken by the Top Ten Sects, you should remain within the sect to cultivate. With your talents, I believe it won’t be long before your strength surpasses that of the elders from the Top Ten Sects. By then, even if you choose to leave the Liangyi Sect, your chances of escaping will be much greater." He understood Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo’s intention of heading to the Heaven Realm.
"That’s also our plan." Luo Shu said. At this point, Hanmo’s cultivation was just one step away from becoming an Immortal Emperor. Once he broke through, for the Top Ten Sects to try to capture them, they’d need to carefully consider whether the sacrifice would be worth it.
As far as she knew, there were currently only two cultivators in the Earth Realm who had reached Immortal Emperor cultivation: the sect master of the Sky Water Sect, Que Penghai, and the sect master of Great Mahayana Island, Jun Wuheng.
