As the leader of the Daoist sects, Celestial Master Cult's power was unfathomable. The fatty and my expressions changed. We didn't dare to delay, and quickly found a car to head towards Ying Tan City.
Along the way, the fatty and I urged the driver to speed up, but Ye Pianpian's brows furrowed tighter and tighter. Her cultivation was higher than mine, and I couldn't sense the location of the people chasing behind us, but she could. From her expression, I didn't even need to ask to know that it was definitely the people from Celestial Master Cult that were getting closer.
It was already late at night, and there were very few cars on the road. When the car we were in reached a desolate road, even I felt a few presences rapidly closing in on us. Each of the presences were extremely strong, and were at least in the realm of Glory of Consciousness.
After we gave him the money, the driver had already increased the speed of the car to the maximum, but it was just a taxi after all, so it couldn't go any faster.
After driving for another ten minutes, the strong presences were already less than a kilometer away from us.
Fatty and I remained silent, but Ye Pianpian suddenly opened her mouth and said to the driver, "Sir, please pull over in front of us."
I was shocked, and quickly asked Ye Pianpian why she had to stop.
Before she could speak, the driver was obedient, and immediately braked, stopping by the side of the road. He probably saw that something was wrong from our conversation and expressions.
Ye Pianpian directly pushed open the car door and walked out. After the fatty and I followed, she said, "With our speed, we definitely can't escape. Why don't we get off and prepare, so as to not hurt the innocent."
Hearing what she said, the fatty and I remained silent.
She said prepare, but in reality, the kilometer of road was covered in the blink of an eye. Just as we said that, two black SUVs drove in front of us. After two ear-piercing braking sounds, a few people wearing Daoist robes walked out of the cars.
I took a rough look, there were a total of eight people, and all of them were in the realm of Glory of Consciousness. The one walking at the front was the fat Daoist, Chen Yangting.
Seeing their formation, I smiled wryly in my heart. A total of eight people in the realm of Glory of Consciousness, even if it was someone like Chen Bingcheng who hadn't even reached one meridian, it would be hard for us to deal with them.
Moreover, Mount Longhu's reputation for two thousand years was no joke. Among these people, the one with the lowest cultivation was probably much more powerful than Chen Bingcheng.
There was also Chen Yangting. He was the master of the Mysterious Altar Hall of the Taoist Master Mansion, and his strength was at least on par with Ye Pianpian's.
After walking in front of us, Chen Yangting smiled wholeheartedly and said, "Fellow daoists, we meet again."
The three of us were secretly on guard and did not make a sound. That Chen Yangting slowly said, "Today on the mountain, I said that Dao Friend Zhou would either cripple his own cultivation and hand over the ancient book, or he would not be able to leave Dragon Tiger Mountain in one piece. At that time, Dao Friend Zhou probably thought that this poor Daoist was joking, but now you should be able to see that I am not joking with you.
Of course, out of respect for Vice President Ye, I'll still give you these two choices. Which one will you choose, Fellow Daoist Zhou? "
Before I could say anything, Ye Pianpian took a step forward and glared at Chen Yangting coldly. "Aren't you afraid of my Metaphysics Association's revenge?"
"Revenge?"
Chen Yangting sneered. His face was filled with indescribable arrogance as he said disdainfully, "In the world of Metaphysics, who would dare to take revenge on my Dragon Tiger Mountain?
Moreover, today on the mountain, under the watchful eyes of the public, you are only a girl at the intermediate stage of the Glorious Memory realm. As long as you don't leave any traces, what right does the Metaphysics Association have to take revenge on my Dragon Tiger Mountain? "
Ye Pianpian's voice became even colder as she said, "Since you know my identity, you should know my grandfather. Do you think that my grandfather won't notice anything if you kill me?"
Her words instantly reminded me of the ghost seal on Liang Kaixiong's body. Liang Kaixiong was only the son of the Great Elder of the Ghost Raising Sect, yet he had such a magical item on him. How could Ye Pianpian not have it?
Thinking of this, I immediately relaxed. No matter how arrogant Chen Yangting was, he should still be wary of Grandfather Li's prestige, right?
Who would have thought that Chen Yangting's mocking expression would become even thicker after hearing this. He sneered and said, "It's just some items that are related to the soul. Do you think that my Dragon Tiger Mountain doesn't have a way to deal with it?
Moreover, I can't bear to kill such a delicate little beauty like you. I just want to capture you alive.
I can assure you that once you enter my Dragon Tiger Mountain, Grandfather Li of the Metaphysics Association won't be able to find your whereabouts no matter how powerful he is. "
Ye Pianpian's expression became even colder. She stood there without saying anything. Her entire body had turned into a piece of thousand-year-old mysterious ice.
I felt gloomy. Although Chen Yangting's words were vague, the perverted smile on his face was obvious. Of course, I understood what he meant.
I couldn't help but hesitate. Ye Pianpian had helped me before. How could I bear to see her suffer such a calamity because of me?
However, before I could make a decision, an emerald green bamboo flute about a foot long appeared in Ye Pianpian's hand. She casually waved it in front of her. Air flowed through the holes of the flute, creating a muffled sound that spread far into the night sky. It sounded like the whimpering of ghosts. It was very horrifying.
Along with this sound, the tip of the bamboo flute suddenly emitted an emerald green energy, forming a green net in the air that directly covered Chen Yangting.
Chen Yangting reacted quickly. The moment Ye Pianpian's bamboo flute appeared, he shot out two talismans in his hand, creating a golden wall in the air that directly blocked Ye Pianpian's green net. At the same time, he chanted an incantation and took out a standard peach wood sword magic tool. He sketched a few times in the air, and an illusory talisman made of talismans appeared.
This action instantly shocked me. As expected of the Xuan Altar Palace Master, Chen Yangting actually knew how to make talismans in the air!
As a talisman sect, Celestial Master Sect's battle methods were inseparable from talismans. However, talismans usually needed to be prepared in advance and taken out during battle. It was incomparably troublesome. Moreover, if one didn't carry it with them or couldn't take it out in a hurry, their strength would inevitably be greatly reduced.
In such a situation, the people of the Talisman Sect researched a method to make talismans in the air using energy. This method had extremely high requirements for a Feng Shui Master's strength and talent. Only a small portion of people in the Glory of Consciousness realm could use it.
The Death Scripture also recorded this method of making talismans in the air. However, my strength hadn't reached the Glory of Consciousness realm, so I hadn't been able to comprehend it.
As for Chen Yangting, when he was making talismans in the air, he thought that the golden wall formed by the two talismans had blocked Ye Pianpian's green net of light. However, in reality, he had overestimated himself. Ye Pianpian wasn't easy to deal with. Although the emerald net of light was blocked for a moment, it quickly spread from the golden wall and continued to entangle Chen Yangting's body.
At this moment, all of Chen Yangting's attention was on the talisman he had made in the air. By the time he reacted, it was already too late. Ye Pianpian's green net of light had entangled his waist in almost an instant. Then, the green light on the net shone brightly and directly enveloped Chen Yangting's entire body.
The Taoist priests standing behind Chen Yangting exclaimed at the same time and walked forward. A few of them charged at Ye Pianpian while the others rushed to Chen Yangting's side. They threw the talismans in their hands at the green light screen as if they were worthless. Not long after, the talismans transformed into surging energy and completely dispersed the green light screen, revealing Chen Yangting's flustered and exasperated face.
After boasting for a long time, Chen Yangting had almost lost to Ye Pianpian in the first exchange of blows. His humiliation turned into anger. He swung the peach wood sword in his hand and commanded the Taoist priests to charge at Ye Pianpian.
At this moment, I couldn't stand still anymore. I turned to the fatty on the side and told him to hide. Then, I called Tong Tong and prepared to fight alongside Ye Pianpian.
However, the fatty suddenly said, "You and Ye Pianpian hold them back. I'll set up a formation on the side. After the formation is set up, listen for my signal and lure them into the formation!"
Set up a formation?
