Crisis!
Bai Qiulan # Nоvеlight # and Yue Hongling were enveloped in a faint black mist.
An Li asked Darkness Origin to protect Bai Qiulan for a bit, and Darkness Origin was indeed obedient, protecting her as requested.
Actually, if Bai Qiulan didn't die, or rather, if none of the eight women died, it would be very detrimental to Lu Ye, because these eight women all had a significant karmic link with Lu Ye.
To deal with Lu Ye, starting with these eight women was much better than directly attacking Lu Ye.
However, Darkness Origin could only temporarily hide Bai Qiulan and the other woman.
Even Heavenly Dao was constrained under the obstruction of Nine Heavens Great Sage, so Darkness Origin, being just Darkness Origin, naturally couldn't directly take Bai Qiulan and ascend away.
With its help, Lu Ye shouldn't be able to find them, right?
In the current Fourth Heaven and Void, an eye would appear from time to time, scanning the surroundings immediately after appearing.
The eyes appeared very frequently, appearing randomly and quickly covering the Fourth Heaven without interruption; he refused to believe that with this method of searching, he still wouldn't be able to find Bai Qiulan.
Time passed second by second.
The entire Fourth Heaven was in shock, not knowing which major figure had gone mad, actually using such terrifying means, with eyes directly sweeping across the entire Fourth Heaven; what kind of power was required to reach such a state?
Heavenly Secrets Pavilion couldn't stop its scalp from tingling; this was bad, someone was here to break their rice bowl.
However, it quickly calmed down, because although this secret technique was frightening, it was absolutely consuming and impossible for the user to use frequently.
What exactly was being searched for?
These eyes, covering the sky and earth, wanted to take in the entire Fourth Heaven.
Bai Qiulan had not been found at this time, but she felt a very strong sense of unease; in fact, she still didn't know what had happened, Lu Ye and Devouring Dao Beast flew too fast, she and Yue Hongling simply couldn't keep up.
But Darkness Origin's abnormal behavior made her very uneasy.
"Can we communicate?" Bai Qiulan asked.
Darkness Origin actually had a certain fondness for Bai Qiulan, because with Bai Qiulan's personality, she was very suitable to join Darkness Origin; she could continuously provide energy for Darkness Origin.
Hypocrisy, sometimes, is also immense Darkness.
Originally, Darkness Origin still needed to expend power to corrupt Bai Qiulan, but now Bai Qiulan alone not only replenished the power it used but even increased it.
If the world was full of people like Bai Qiulan, it wouldn't even know how powerful it would become.
Unfortunately, Bai Qiulan was too rare.
Darkness Origin thought for a moment and decided to respond to her.
"Yes!"
"Something happened to An Li, didn't it?" Bai Qiulan asked.
"Yes!"
Although Bai Qiulan had guessed it, hearing Darkness Origin admit it, she still couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart.
This wasn't a matter of physique; it was because she felt fear.
"What exactly happened? A Devouring Dao Beast went to hunt down the current Lu Ye; logically speaking, Lu Ye should be dead for sure!"
Bai Qiulan truly found it difficult to understand.
A Quasi-Emperor hunting down a Heaven and Earth Realm cultivator; to be honest, a Quasi-Emperor could instantly kill a Heaven and Earth Realm with just a look, and a single breath could leave a Heaven and Earth Realm cultivator's bones nonexistent.
"The Devouring Dao Beast betrayed." Darkness Origin gave the answer.
Bai Qiulan's heart grew even colder.
"So An Li's fate is?"
"Don't worry about that; An Li shouldn't appear again for now. It's useless for you to overthink now; instead, it's better to cultivate properly and strive to bear more of my power."
Bai Qiulan, however, furrowed her brows even tighter.
"Lu Ye will definitely come back to kill me!"
"Don't worry, I have shielded all karmic links on your body; he absolutely won't find you!"
"No, he has many methods; can you take me into the Fifth Heaven?"
"No."
Darkness Origin gave a very precise answer; it truly couldn't.
"No, I can't stay here; I must go somewhere else."
Bai Qiulan immediately wanted to leave; she was very uneasy and very afraid now.
She knew Lu Ye's methods; if no one was restraining him now, and he was searching for her with all his heart and soul, then it was truly uncertain.
Even if Darkness Origin had shielded the karmic links, it was still uncertain.
Change places!
Darkness Origin didn't speak; it was only responsible for severing all karmic links. As for where Bai Qiulan wanted to go, it didn't care.
Bai Qiulan and Yue Hongling quickly left.
Almost as soon as they left, an eye appeared right there.
Lu Ye was a bit tired now; the Fourth Heaven was truly very large, and even if all the energy from this altar was completely consumed, it might not be enough to fully scan the Fourth Heaven once.
But it didn't matter; besides the Evil Demons, there were other Alien Races that could also form this altar.
If he couldn't find them once, he'd try twice; if he couldn't find them twice, he'd try five times, ten times. He refused to believe it!!!
Bai Qiulan took Yue Hongling to a place she considered safe; at the same time, her and Yue Hongling's appearance, and even their physical forms, changed; now the two of them looked just like men.
Their aura also completely changed; it could be said that they truly achieved the ultimate in disguise.
Even under these circumstances, Bai Qiulan was still worried.
Everything that could be done had been done.
She and Yue Hongling appeared in a huge city looking like the most ordinary men, blending into the most crowded parts of the population.
Undeniably, Bai Qiulan regretted it at this moment.
How did things turn out like this?
In her previous life, she was his Dao Companion; in this life, she thought about being his Master; even if Lu Ye wouldn't be close to her, at the very least, they wouldn't become enemies, right?
As a result, they truly became enemies now.
She actually became enemies with Lu Ye.
Daring to become enemies with Lu Ye, had her head been kicked by a donkey or something?
That was Lu Ye!
That was Nine Lives Celestial Venerable!
Bai Qiulan was afraid and regretful; hadn't they agreed to ask for Lu Ye's forgiveness?
How did things turn out like this again?
Bai Qiulan's gaze fell upon Yue Hongling.
Yes, she remembered.
It was all Yue Hongling's fault!
She had already agreed to be controlled by her using the Nine Separation Soul Stealing Technique, but what happened?
"It's all because of you!"
Bai Qiulan glared fiercely at Yue Hongling and said.
Yue Hongling???
Big sister, I'm already like this!
However, Bai Qiulan didn't punish Yue Hongling now, because she was worried that any abnormal behavior might be discovered by Lu Ye.
She was truly very afraid now, her body trembling uncontrollably.
Now that only she was left to be an enemy of Lu Ye, the pressure on her was too great.
She could only pray, pray, and pray again.
It was just as she was praying earnestly that an eye suddenly appeared in the sky, looking down at the crowd below.
This eye would disappear almost every second; if it found nothing, it would go search elsewhere.
But this time, this eye didn't disappear.
Not only did it not disappear, a second eye appeared, then a third, a fourth...
Eyes began to gather one by one, their gazes all falling upon Bai Qiulan, who was disguised as a man.
Found them!
Hahahaha!!
Found them!!!
