Rebirth of the Supreme Immortal Emperor

Chapter 1729: Chapter 1726: Alcohol Sword Immortal Li Mubai

Hearing Li Chen’s question, Thousand Shadows Blood Charm nodded and replied, "That’s right, they already knew long ago, and even went up to check it out."

Hearing this, Li Chen immediately became interested and pressed, "Oh? Since they already came up to take a look, did they find anything?"

Thousand Shadows Blood Charm shook her head and said, "I’ve always been suppressed beneath the Buddha statue, as for what it’s like above, I’m not too clear!"

"However, judging from the current situation, the Beast Spirit Clan and the Dragon Clan must have returned empty-handed!"

Li Chen was slightly surprised and asked, "Oh? How can you tell?"

Thousand Shadows Blood Charm sorted out her thoughts and explained, "A very powerful Forbidden Barrier has been set up here. Other than the Human Clan, any other race that rashly comes here will suffer the backlash of the Forbidden Barrier!"

Li Chen carefully released his Divine Sense and discovered that there truly was an invisible Forbidden Barrier around them.

However, this Forbidden Barrier was immune to the Human Clan.

Therefore, if one didn’t examine carefully, it would be impossible to detect.

Thinking of this, Li Chen’s gaze subconsciously swept toward the distance again.

Given the temperament of the Dragon Clan and Beast Spirit Clan, they definitely wouldn’t give up on the Alcohol Sword Immortal’s Sword Tomb fortune.

Perhaps at this very moment, they were lurking in the dark, eyeing this place like tigers, secretly watching every move here.

Once the time was ripe, they would then strike decisively to seize the fortune and opportunity.

Truly a case of the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind!

At this, not only did Li Chen feel no unease, but the corners of his mouth even curved into a faint smile.

The more tangled the powers involved, the murkier this pool of water would become.

In that case, he would naturally have an even better chance to fish in troubled waters.

Having silently made up his mind, Li Chen no longer hesitated. His figure turned into a streak of flowing light, quickly charging into the palace.

The palace was very large, and the inside was twisted and winding, like a maze.

After these cultivators filed out, each chose a path and continued to explore deeper inside.

Li Mengjiao ordered Yans Ziyi, Snow Princess and the others, "Maintain a certain distance and act separately. If anything happens, warn at once. Do you all understand?"

Snow Princess, Yans Ziyi and the others successively nodded, indicating that they understood.

After that, Li Mengjiao went together with Zhuge Qingyun and the others straight into the depths of the main hall.

Mo Qing watched the receding backs of Li Mengjiao and the others and said, "Senior Brother, let’s hurry and catch up as well, so that they don’t snatch away any fortune or opportunity before us!"

Mo Zhan let out a grim weird laugh and said, "No rush. The Alcohol Sword Immortal’s inheritance and fortune won’t be obtained that easily."

After speaking, his gaze shifted toward the direction where Snow Princess and the others had gone.

"That girl definitely knows where Mo Yu is. While Li Mengjiao isn’t here, go after her at once. Find a chance to capture her!"

Mo Qing also glanced toward Snow Princess’s side and said, "What if she doesn’t cooperate?"

Mo Zhan sneered grimly and replied, "Then just kill her. In this palace, danger lurks everywhere; a few people dying is only normal!"

Mo Qing’s smile didn’t reach her eyes as she said, "Such a beautiful little beauty, if she just withers away like that, it would really be a waste!"

Mo Zhan looked at Mo Qing and asked, "What, you want her skin?"

Mo Qing smiled, nodded, and replied, "You truly understand me, my husband!"

Mo Zhan pondered for a brief moment and said, "Fine, but you have to do it cleanly. Don’t leave any loose ends. Otherwise, if that old hag from Qianxue Hall finds out we killed her prized Disciple, she’ll definitely fight our Heavenly Demon Sect to the death!"

Mo Qing gave a charming smile and answered coldly, "Senior Brother, rest assured, I know what I’m doing!"

Mo Zhan nodded and said, "All right, handle it as you see fit!"

After speaking, his figure transformed into a streak of black light and slipped toward the depths of the palace.

Mo Qing licked her scarlet lips, then also quickly pursued in the direction where Snow Princess and the others had disappeared.

Her figure had just vanished from the spot.

Another figure appeared out of thin air.

The owner of this figure was precisely Li Chen.

Just now, every word of the conversation between Mo Zhan and Mo Qing had fallen clearly into his ears.

After a brief moment of pondering, he quickly followed after them.

In any case, Snow Princess counted as his friend.

If he hadn’t known, that would be one thing.

But now that he knew, there was no reason to sit by and watch her die.

...

Snow Princess and Liuu Kewei, Yans Ziyi, along with three other female cultivators, were walking together.

After going a hundred or so li deeper inside, Snow Princess suddenly stopped.

Her gaze subconsciously swept toward the back.

Seeing this, Yans Ziyi and Liuu Kewei were slightly puzzled in their hearts and asked, "Snow Princess, did you notice something?"

Snow Princess’s expression was as grim as frost. After pausing briefly, she replied in a low voice, "I don’t know why, but I keep feeling that there’s a pair of eyes behind us, staring at us!"

Hearing Snow Princess’s words, Yans Ziyi and Liuu Kewei were both suddenly startled.

After exchanging a glance, they subconsciously looked back.

However, they found nothing!

Yans Ziyi’s delicate brows furrowed slightly as she said, "Junior Sister Snow Princess, are you too nervous? I didn’t notice anything."

Snow Princess pondered for a moment and replied, "Maybe. Let’s just be careful."

The six of them, in pairs, formed a triangular formation and cautiously advanced forward.

Seeing this, Mo Qing, who had been trailing them, lifted the corners of her lips into a sinister smile.

"Hmph, didn’t expect this girl to be quite alert—almost got discovered!"

After muttering to herself, Mo Qing’s figure once again shot forward like a ghost.

There was a fork in the road ahead; she intended to make her move there!

Sure enough, when they reached the fork, Snow Princess and Yans Ziyi stopped.

Their attention was completely drawn to this intersection.

They had entirely forgotten the danger behind them!

Just as they were discussing which branch they should take to continue exploring, a black-and-red long ribbon suddenly tore through the air, like a dancing venomous snake that had found its prey, flicking its scarlet tongue as it lunged forward.

"Ah!"

A female cultivator from Qianxue Hall was tightly entangled by this venomous-snake-like ribbon before she could even react.

As the ribbon tightened more and more, the female cultivator immediately let out a shrill, tragic scream.

Right after, Mo Qing’s arm gave a fierce shake.

The ribbon snapped open, and the unlucky female cultivator’s body was instantly torn into pieces, turning into a mist of blood that scattered all around. The scene was simply too gruesome to look at.

Witnessing this horrifying scene, Snow Princess, Yans Ziyi, Liuu Kewei and the others all turned pale with fright.

Snow Princess recognized the assailant and her apricot eyes widened at once, filled with killing intent as cold as ice.

"Mo Qing, our Qianxue Hall and your Heavenly Demon Sect have always kept to our own sides. Why did you ambush us?"
