Her plan was straightforward, to capture Zhou Chun who worked at Pagoda Peak, ensuring that should there truly be a Golden Elixir Cultivator stationed within the Zhou Family Mountain, they would undoubtedly be alarmed.

However, her approach was definitely much cruder compared to Lin Hongyu’s.

It could be said that, following Lin Hongyu’s previous infiltration incident, the Zhou Family had also increased their precautions in certain aspects.

No sooner had she left the Cultivation Area than a series of urgent wolf howls began to resound through the surrounding mountains.

It turned out that the Zhou Family had learned from the lessons of Lin Hongyu’s experience and had placed Demon Wolves with keen senses of smell around the Cultivation Area in the mountains.

As long as they detected the scent of strangers or found targets not taking the regular path to leave the Cultivation Area, these Demon Wolves would make noise to issue warnings.

Since the Zhou Family was known for their Beast Taming Skills, Ruan Hongzhuang had indeed spotted the Demon Wolves in the mountains beforehand but didn’t pay much attention, taking them for normally pastured Demon Beasts.

It wasn’t until the howling of the wolves sounded the alarm that she realized the grave mistake she had made.

But there was no point in regretting at that moment, she immediately stopped concealing her Cultivation Level, soared into the air, and charged straight toward Pagoda Peak.

"Not good, it’s a Purple Mansion Phase Cultivator!"

Atop Baozhi Peak, Zhou Jiahe’s complexion greatly changed upon seeing Ruan Hongzhuang’s figure, and she immediately understood that the enemy was not someone she could contend with.

She decisively abandoned the idea of intercepting the enemy and simply released alert fireworks quickly while ordering the Zhou Family Cultivators, who were prepared to intercept, to stand down.

Although she was unaware that the Ancestor of the Su Family was present within the Zhou Family’s grounds, Zhou Jiahe still had great faith in the abilities of the family’s Supreme Elders.

Powerful as the enemy was, she didn’t believe that the adversary could single-handedly create chaos within the Zhou Family Mountain.

Meanwhile, Zhou Chun, who was working in Central Peace Hall on Pagoda Peak, also heard the alarmed messages from the mountain gates for the first time.

He quickly left the great hall and immediately saw Ruan Hongzhuang, who was rushing over at high speed.

And at that moment, Ruan Hongzhuang also saw him.

For Ruan Hongzhuang, this was akin to bitter enemies meeting, exceptionally aggravating.

Her eyes locked onto Zhou Chun with deathly focus, the Magic Artifact already in her hand, ready to take Zhou Chun’s life as soon as she entered range.

Zhou Chun, feeling her fierce gaze, instantly grasped her intentions.

He hurriedly dashed toward the nearby ancestral shrine.

As a major site of the family, the Zhou Family’s ancestral shrine was guarded by a separate Formation.

And as the Clan Leader of the Zhou Family, Zhou Chun also possessed the spell to activate the ancestral shrine’s Formation.

The moment he leaped into the ancestral shrine, he immediately began the spell to activate its Formation.

Almost at the same time, a streak of red light suddenly appeared from behind the mountains of Pagoda Peak, charging toward Ruan Hongzhuang – it was the Fire Divine Jackal, arriving just in time.

Seeing this, Ruan Hongzhuang could only curse Zhou Chun for his cunning, and hastily braced herself to face the Fire Divine Jackal’s onslaught.

The battle between the person and the monster in midair was so intense that even the tremors from their skirmishes brought considerable shock to the Zhou Family Mountain gates below.

Luckily by that point, the Zhou Family as a whole had responded, and Zhou Jiarui, the Elder in charge of managing the Formation for the day, quickly activated the Mountain Protection Array, drawing on the power of the Five Directions Mirlo Array to erect barriers of spiritual light on all sides of the battlefield, preventing Ruan Hongzhuang from moving the battle elsewhere and causing further damage.

Zhou Mingde and Zhou Daoyi arrived at the battlefield shortly after, joining the fight together.

Faced with the combined assault of two Zhou Family Purple Mansion Phase Cultivators and the Fire Divine Jackal, Ruan Hongzhuang was forced to use the defensive Talisman Treasure given to her by Liu Xi.

It was a golden amulet-shaped Dharma Treasure, whose defensive golden light was impenetrable, resisting attacks from Zhou Mingde and Zhou Daoyi no matter how they struck.

However, this object seemed to consume Mana greatly, and Ruan Hongzhuang, with only early Purple Mansion Phase cultivation, showed a strained expression when she activated it.

Not only was she physically strained, but her heart was also in desperate urgency.

None of the measures left by Liu Xi on her seemed triggered, which should be a good thing.

But Liu Xi’s continued absence made her extremely uneasy.

If Liu Xi truly did not make a move, her fate today was certain death!

"Taoist Friend Ruan, you shouldn’t have come. I, Zhou, had already spared you once, why trouble yourself to come again!"

In the sky, Zhou Mingde, with keen eyes, looked at Ruan Hongzhuang, maintaining his offense while also speaking with a face full of regret, attempting to probe.

"Hmph, Zhou Mingde, don’t be so pleased with yourself. Since I dared to come here, naturally I’m not afraid of your little tricks!"

Ruan Hongzhuang let out a cold snort with a meaningful response.

Since Liu Xi was still not showing up, all she could do was to save herself.

Indeed, Zhou Mingde and Zhou Daoyi’s expressions changed immediately after hearing her words, and their attacks momentarily eased.

Zhou Mingde immediately looked at her with an astonished and doubtful expression, saying, "Taoist Friend Ruan, do not try to bluff us. You are now like a turtle in a jar. Once the power of this Talisman Treasure is exhausted, you will be meat on our chopping board. What other tricks could you possibly have to turn the situation around?"

"Whether I am bluffing you, you will know very soon!"

Ruan Hongzhuang appeared completely confident, making it impossible to ignore her words.

Thus, the assault from Zhou Mingde and Zhou Daoyi weakened even further.

Soon, Zhou Daoyi withdrew from the battlefield, seemingly to take control of the Formation.

This scene gave Ruan Hongzhuang some reassurance and eased her worries.

Right now, she could not be concerned with anything else; she only wanted to save her own life.

But just as she began to feel reassured, her expression changed once again.

Because as soon as Zhou Daoyi took control of the Formation, he immediately launched a fierce attack on her using the power of the Formation.

Under the attack of the Formation, the power of her Talisman Treasure was rapidly depleted, and her Mana flowed away like water cascading down a waterfall!

"They have even mobilized the Formation; it seems there truly isn’t a Golden Elixir Cultivator in charge anymore!"

Outside Jiufeng Ridge, Liu Xi saw the changes in the Zhou Family Mountain’s Mountain Protection Array and a flash of sharpness appeared in his eyes. He suddenly rose into the air and headed straight for the gates of Zhou Family Mountain.

He could no longer resist making his move.

And just as he took flight toward the gates of Zhou Family Mountain, the Ancestor of the Su Family also suddenly flew out of his cave dwelling on the summit of Pagoda Peak.

He had naturally been disturbed by Ruan Hongzhuang’s intrusion.

But when he saw that the intruder was only a Purple Mansion Phase Cultivator, he understood everything as if he had seen through it all.

At this moment, feeling the powerful aura approaching the gates of Zhou Family Mountain at high speed, he knew his judgment was correct.

As he emerged from his dwelling, with hardly any pause, he was allowed to pass by Zhou Daoyi, directly flying out of the scope of Zhou Family’s Mountain Protection Array. Explore hidden tales at freewebnovel

Outside the gates of Zhou Family Mountain, Liu Xi, about to strike at the gates, also froze in an instant upon seeing the sudden appearance of the Ancestor of the Su Family.

What’s going on?

How could the Zhou Family have a Golden Core Stage Cultivator!

After a momentary shock, Liu Xi quickly thought of something, and couldn’t help but halt and speak in a deep voice, "Are you Taoist Friend Su from Su Family in Jiangzhou?"

Hearing his words, the Ancestor of the Su Family replied coldly, "Since you know it is Su who is here, yet you still dare to act rashly, you truly do not regard the Cultivation World of Jingguo Country or Su in high esteem!"

Confronted with such obviously hostile speech, Liu Xi’s expression changed, and he hurriedly gestured with his hands, saying, "Taoist Friend Su has misunderstood. There must be some misunderstanding. I was merely passing by!"

Knowing that the Ancestor of the Su Family had personally come to protect the Zhou Family, Liu Xi certainly wouldn’t be foolish enough to admit that he was here to deal with the Zhou Family.

As for Ruan Hongzhuang inside, she had to be abandoned now.

Liu Xi would not choose to start a battle with a local Golden Core Cultivator like the Ancestor of the Su Family over someone, like Ruan Hongzhuang, he hardly knew.

However, faced with his pretext and explanations, the Ancestor of the Su Family was unappreciative.

He sneered and said immediately, "Whether it is a misunderstanding or not, both you and Su are clear in our hearts!"

"Enough with the nonsense. Since you’ve come, let Su witness your prowess!"

With those words, he raised his hand and summoned his Lifebound Dharma Treasure.

His Lifebound Dharma Treasure was an azure Eight-Pronged Mace. With a flick of his sleeve, the mace tore through the air towards Liu Xi.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The roaring sound like thunder blared, ripping through the air where the mace passed, reaching incredible speeds.

Seeing this, Liu Xi’s complexion drastically changed, and he hastily raised his greenish-blue Flying Sword to meet the Eight-Pronged Mace.
