it... How could Peach possibly lose! There's no way she could lose!!"In the high heavens, Heavenly Martial Saint roared wildly.After the violent explosion just now, Taotao's overwhelming aura instantl..."Alright, I should head to the next one." Fang Yu said to Hong Yaozu, "You guys just stay here for now. I'll deal with the other factions first, and then we can talk about what to do next."

"May I ask, honorable Master Fang, where will you be going next"

At this time, Hong Ya zu raised his head and looked at Fang Yu, asking.

Compared to before when he was controlled, he had calmed down a lot, and the fear in his eyes had lessened considerably.

"San Yemén or the Seki clan, which do you think we should go to first" Fang Yu narrowed his eyes and asked.

“I think we should go to the Red Mountain Sect first. That sect is rather strange, and they might have already heard the rumors and fled.” Hong Yaofu said, “But it’s not a big problem. Even if they run away, I can lead Lord Fang Dazun to find their lair and bring them all out.”

"Oh" Fang Yu raised an eyebrow and said, "You adapt to the role pretty quickly, huh"

"Since I have accepted the blood pact, I am Lord's slave. This is an unchangeable fact." Hong Ya zu bowed his head and said.

This is not a platitude, but his true inner thoughts.

All members of the Hong family have signed a blood pact, so... at least for this period of time, he can only do his best to please them in order to secure his life.

This life isn't just his own; it includes the lives of every member of the Hong family!

Hong Yaozu noticed Zhixi who was following Fang Yu.

Before this, he had already investigated that Zhixi was the Saintess of the Burning Palace, a second-rank sect.

A second-rank sect isn't weak, but it's also not a top power.

Why could this holy maiden always stay by Fang Yu's side, and even converse with him happily, as if they were equals

This is clearly a matter of trust.

Now that the blood pact has been accepted, there's no other choice.

Hong Yaozu could only try his best to gain Fang Yu's trust in order to secure his safety.

"Since you know so much about the Akashic Sect, I'll take you with me." Fang Yu said.

"Yes! It is my fortune to be able to serve Fang Dazun." Hong Yaozu immediately cupped his fists and said.

Seeing Hong Ya zu's posture like that of a servant, many members of the Hong family around him had shame in their eyes.

The Hong family were the richest in the Heavenly Calamity clan, when had they ever been so humble!

"Then I'll be going." Fang Yu said to Hong Ya zu, and then turned and left.

Hong Yaozu immediately followed Fang Yu.

The two of them, along with Zhixi, quickly left the Hong family's mansion.

And the grand hall of the Hong family remained eerily silent.

Even though Fang Yu left, they dared not express any angry remarks!

Because of the blood pact, Fang Yu has a chance to hear what they are saying!

……

The Seiran Temple is located in the suburbs outside of the northern district, and it's not easy to find.

But in Hong Ya zu's hands, there was a very detailed map of the distribution of major sects and clans.

Finding the Akashic teachings is much easier following a map.

"Master, this Chi Lan sect might be difficult to deal with. Their spells are rather strange, and we could easily be outsmarted by them if we're not careful. So we must be vigilant..." Hong Yaozu said.

"Why aren't you worried that I'm not their match, but rather that they'll run" Fang Yu raised an eyebrow.

"Even the Great Sovereign of Heaven's Calamity Mansion has been defeated, so who in the Heaven's Calamity Clan could possibly be your match" Hong Yaizu complimented.

The Red Mist Sect specializes in illusionary magic. Their leader, Leng Xing, is believed to be at the level of the third stage of He Dao, making him quite powerful. Within the sect itself, only around two hundred elite disciples are worth noting, most of them ranging from the Earth Immortal to the Celestial Immortal realm.

At this time, Hong Yaozu continued to introduce Fang Yu about some intelligence regarding the Chi Lan Jiao.

"As for the twelve Dharma Protectors of the Chi'lan Sect, most of their strength is also at the Heavenly Immortal level, but they are all in the first or second stage of Dao unification, not a concern..."

Fang Yu looked at Hong Yaozu and asked curiously, "Where do you get so much information"

"Sigh, money bought... In this continent, strength comes first, and wealth second," Hong Yaizu said. "Of course, no matter how much wealth you have, you need strength as a foundation, otherwise... you can't keep it at all."

Just like this now.

Of course, that second half of the sentence was something Hong Yaizu dared not utter.

"You've got some good intel there." Fang Yu said approvingly.

Continuing our journey, we arrived at the northern district via a teleportation platform and swiftly approached the Akari Clan.

In a short while, he arrived at the location of the Akigawa sect.

The so-called Akaran School is actually an unassuming mountain city.

"The stench of poverty was overwhelming." Hong Yaizu looked ahead, a hint of disdain in his eyes.

When they were still hundreds of meters away from the Red Cloud Temple, Hong Yaozu spoke again: "Grandmaster, we'll just wait here for you. Otherwise, it might cause you unnecessary trouble later. We'll approach after you've grasped the situation... how about that"

Fang Yu glanced at Hong Yaozu, smiled, and said, "Sure."

He certainly knew that Hong Yaizu didn't dare to step forward because he was afraid of death.

But what Hong Yaozhu said wasn't entirely unreasonable.

It's best to avoid unnecessary baggage when dealing with the Akashic teachings.

"Whoosh!"

Thus, Zhixi and Hong Yaizu remained in place, while Fang Yu charged forward alone.

Soon, they rushed into the territory of the Akashan sect.

The moment Fang Yu stepped into the Chi Lan Sect, he felt something was wrong.

He released his consciousness and found that the Red Mountain Sect was empty.

Not even a trace of spiritual energy.

And below, in the mountain city, every building was also empty.

The entire mountain city was deathly silent.

Fang Yu narrowed his eyes and looked down.

"Whoosh!"

He swiftly descended until his legs touched the ground.

"Click!"

Fang Yu stood before a stone-cast hall, pondered for a moment, then walked up the steps.

The steps were very high, and when he stepped onto the last one, he could see the great hall ahead.

Just as empty.

"They all escaped" Fang Yu frowned, scanning the area again.

At the same time, his divine sense spread out, searching for anything abnormal within the range of the Chi Lan sect.

However, after a search, nothing unusual was found.

“Could he really just disappear like that He even took everything with him.” Fang Yu frowned.

He recalled what Hong Yaizu had said.

The Akashic Clan is most adept at illusionary magic.

The unreasonableness of the current situation suggests that...the present circumstances are very likely not real.

Fang Yu stood before the main hall, closing his eyes.

He did not open the Eye of the Dao.

but wield the...Law of Manifestation!

"Whoosh!"

The moment Fang Yu opened his eyes again, the entire scene inside the Chi Lan Sect seemed to recede like ripples in water, centered on his location…… The scene changed rapidly!

In an instant, the once empty and deserted Akura Clan...returned to its original state!

Just in front of Fang Yu, inside the main hall.

The Lord, Leng Xing, sat on the high seat. On either side of the hall below him stood rows of monks in red cloaks.

A killing intent swept towards me!, there is a clear sensation.Six kinds of spiritual energy brought six different feelings.A faint coolness, coldness, warmth, heat, gloom, netherworld...Six unusual feelings were mixed together, very...
