Chapter 141: Escape
A massive light screen unfurled.
The many techniques prepared by the Eternal Teachings Sect were not deployed—because their objective had shifted. It was no longer Chu Ling.
It was now—Bai Qiulan!
They hadn’t expected such a surprise.
Chu Ling had already been beaten to this state, and Lu Ye still hadn’t shown up. That meant Chu Ling held no value. But what if his master were captured?
Whether in terms of emotional ties or worldly moral standards, he had to act if it was his master.
If he didn’t, then the label of cold-hearted ingrate would be slapped firmly onto Lu Ye. No one would care about whatever past grievances or entanglements there were between him and his master. People would only remember one thing: that Lu Ye had the power to save his master and chose to let her die.
Sometimes, public opinion was a sharp and deadly blade.
Enough of it could even cause a cultivator to develop inner demons.
Demons excluded...
Lu Ye had indeed killed many, but he had treated the Grand Dao Sect well. He shouldn’t be a demon.
The Supreme Sword Sect also gave up on chasing Chu Ling.
