As the Universe Turns - Chapter 56
Chapter 56 Flee
“Senior Brother!”
This time, He Chongtian was suddenly shocked. Earlier, he had been pushed back because he wasn’t paying attention. Now, why did even the sword in his Senior Brother’s hand fly away? What is this kid capable of!
Yi Chen didn’t know what was going on. Why did the finger power he released become so strong after being guided by his mother-in-law’s profound strength? What’s going on.
“Be careful.”
Xu Taichang waved his hand and summoned the Immortal Sword back. Both of their eyes turned cold as they attacked. Yi Chen’s heart panicked. He forgot to send a secret message and directly shouted, “Granny! They’re coming together!”
“Don’t panic. Finger together.”
Another strand of profound energy shot out from the sedan chair. Xiao Chen’s two fingers joined together, and two strands of purple true energy were emitted. “Bang bang bang!” The wrists of He Chongtian and Xu Taichang were numbed, and they kept retreating.
“Sure enough, this old witch is playing tricks on us!”
After stabilizing their bodies, the two of them looked into the sedan chair at the same time. However, after thinking for a moment, they felt that something was wrong. The old witch’s strength just now was clearly not so profound. How could she have become so powerful after fighting through this brat?
He Chongtian narrowed his eyes and said with concentration, “Could it be the most mysterious thing in the legends that has long been lost in Jianghu … fighting cattle across mountains?”
“Cattle across the mountain? What the hell?”
Yi Chen was also stunned. His mother-in-law’s laughter came from the sedan chair, “Haha! You two old men have cultivated for hundreds of years in vain, and now you can’t even defeat a little child. Why are you talking about beating cows across mountains? That’s right, it’s you two who are beating cows in the nose!”
“Me too!”
He Chongtian shouted loudly and was about to pounce again with his sword. Xu Taichang hurriedly pressed on him, “Junior Brother, don’t be impulsive!” After saying that, he looked at the back of the sedan chair and said coldly, “Go attack the back. I’ll attack the front. I don’t believe she can create two more avatars!”
“Hehe! That’s right, it can transform into an avatar! Hey! Pay attention!”
Yi Chen felt that it was fun to play. In an instant, he unfolded the Thousand Shadows and Light inside the Ling Xian Step and saw numerous shadows surrounding the sedan chair. It was impossible to distinguish the real from the real.
“Granny, I’m done. Quickly, send me profound strength to beat them!”
“This …”
The granny in the sedan chair thought to herself, “This brat has created so many shadows. Which one is real? Ah, it doesn’t matter!”
A streak of profound energy was thrown out randomly, Yi Chen pushed his palms, but when the palm force was thrown out, he realized that something was wrong, eh? Why did he lose the strength he had just had …
“Shit …”
The granny in the sedan chair thought to herself, “I’ve lost my senses. Ah! This brat, why are you doing so many shadows? Now I’m dumbfounded. This time, it’s over …”
“Granny! Hurry up! They’re coming up again!”
Yi Chen was so anxious that his hands drew randomly. Not far away, Xu Taichang and the others saw the situation clearly. He Chongtian laughed loudly and said, “Very good! This old witch’s beating cattle across the mountain is no longer effective!”
At the end of their words, the two of them immediately rushed over like tigers. Yi Chen was busy fighting, but he was beaten into a panic. He said, “Aiyo! No more fighting! You two Martial Uncles won, no more fighting!”
“Brat! I made you look so arrogant just now! You still dare to fight with me! Hey! Pay attention!”
He Chongtian’s sword slashed towards the sedan chair. The sword wind instantly enveloped the entire sedan chair. The sedan chair was unable to withstand such powerful sword qi. With a bang, the sedan chair shattered into pieces. The granny in the sedan chair finally appeared. She looked like an 80-year-old old old woman with gray hair.
“Be careful!”
Granny grabbed Yi Chen and pushed him with her palm. A palm force was sent out from the sky. With a “bang”, it collided with He Chongtian’s sword qi, but she was constantly pushed back.
“Granny, are you alright?”
Yi Chen hurriedly supported her and said anxiously, “Granny, hurry up! Hurry up and send my profound strength to beat them!” ‘”Didn’t you hear him say that it didn’t work?” The mother-in-law glared at him angrily.
“Ah? Why isn’t it working?”
“Why are you asking me? Why are you making so many shadows?”
“Ahhh? Strange … blame me? Ouch! They’re fighting again!”
The two of them raised their swords and slashed at Yi Chen. This time, the two of them were sent flying by the sword Qi. If it wasn’t for Yi Chen’s profound arts protecting them, their internal organs would have been split apart.
“Aiyo! Granny, what should we do now?”
“What should we do? Run! Idiot!”
“Oh, oh, oh, oh! Granny, come up, I’ll fly you away!”
After Yi Chen finished speaking, he didn’t care about that much and directly carried his mother-in-law on his back. Her mother-in-law was greatly shocked by his sudden bold action, “Kid! What are you doing!”
“Granny, don’t speak! Let’s go!”
With a push from Yi Chen’s inner strength, he could only risk his life to see if he could use the most powerful move in Ling Xian Step with his current state. He shouted, “Heaven and Earth teleport!”
In an instant, the two figures disappeared. Behind them, He Chongtian and the other two were both shocked, “This kid has actually learned Ling Yin’s instant step, hurry up and chase after him!”
…
Twilight gradually closed in. Yi Chen carried his mother-in-law on his back and ran to somewhere. He heavily gasped, “Mother-in-law … I, I can’t run anymore.”
“Then why don’t you put down your old body!”
“Oh, oh!”
Only then did Yi Chen put her down and wipe the sweat off his forehead. “Granny, the two of them can’t catch up for now, but we need to find a place to hide as soon as possible. My Instant Step Cosmos can only be used once a day, sometimes only once a few days. If they catch up again, I’ll be dead!” He said.
“Humph!”
Unexpectedly, her mother-in-law looked at him and snorted angrily. Yi Chen was confused for a long time. She thought to herself that she had saved her just now, so why was she suddenly angry with her? “Granny, what’s your name?”
“Nameless!”
“Oh …”
Yi Chen no longer asked. He thought to himself that he blamed Senior for not revealing his name. This granny also didn’t reveal her name. It was really weird. He could simply call her Granny Blame.
“Oh right, Granny, why did you inject my profound energy into my meridians just now, and my strength instantly increased by a lot? What kind of kung fu is this?”
“Why are you asking so many questions? If you don’t want to be caught up with by those two, leave!”
“Oh, oh!”
Yi Chen followed in a daze. When night fell, the two of them found a hidden cave. As soon as the granny entered the cave, she covered her stomach and let out a muffled groan. Yi Chen was worried that she had been injured by the two of them. He hurriedly helped her up and said, “Granny, are you alright?”
“Go away! Don’t touch me!”
The granny shook off his hand and slowly walked into the cave with the stone wall on her own. However, looking at the slow movement of her clutching her lower abdomen, it must be very painful and uncomfortable.
Although Yi Chen couldn’t bear it, he was afraid that he would make this strange mother-in-law angry, so he didn’t dare to speak any more. When night fell, the mother-in-law recovered a little and looked into the deeper cave. “I’m going in to treat my injuries. You’re not allowed to come in, do you hear me?”
“Oh.”
Yi Chen thought to himself that this granny was really strange. Even if she was injured, she was not allowed to treat her own injuries. Aiyo, I forgot that she still had injuries on her body!
“Hmph.”
Granny snorted coldly and walked into the cave. When she reached the cave, she slowly sat down cross-legged, but her brows gradually wrinkled. She thought to herself, “How could this disciple of Xuanqing Sect have such a powerful devil essence hidden deep within his body?” He suddenly couldn’t sense it again …
It turned out that she was the one who guided this devil essence attack towards Xu Taichang and the others. How could Xu Taichang and the others understand this mystery when they acted shallowly?
The next morning, Granny slowly walked out of the cave. It looked like her abdomen was not as painful as it was yesterday. Yi Chen smiled and said, “Granny, you’re fine!”
“Yes.”
The mother-in-law put her hands behind her back and looked at him with an old look, “Where are you going?”
“I…” Yi Chen thought for a moment and said, “I was going to Dongjie, but I was separated from Martial Uncle and the others. Now I have to rush to Dongjie to meet them.”
“Mm … Since you’re on your way, then let’s go.”
“Oh, so Granny is also going there.”
On the surface, Yi Chen looked “ignorant of the world”, but in his heart, he was repeatedly pondering, what exactly was the origin of this mother-in-law? Uncle Mei said that there were traces of magic hidden in Dongjie, so why did she go to Dongjie as well? Moreover, the two of them seemed to be forcing something from her yesterday …
“What’s on your mind?”
Granny’s gaze narrowed and suddenly interrupted his thoughts. Yi Chen came back to his senses and didn’t want to be suspected by her, so he put on a pained expression and said, “This junior was just thinking about how pitiful those sisters were to be buried in the mountains. We can’t go back and bury them now …”
“Don’t worry, someone will bury them. Let’s go.”
Granny raised her hand and walked out of the cave. Yi Chen wondered who she was. Why is it a little ruthless? Yesterday, those two women swore to protect her to the death, but today, she doesn’t seem to be sad at all. Don’t tell me she doesn’t have any feelings …
“Why are you still standing there?”
“Oh, come!”
Yi Chen immediately followed and didn’t think too much about it. In short, this granny shouldn’t be a bad person. However, along the way to Dongjie, both of them were injured, unable to control their swords, and unable to execute the Instant Steps Cosmos. It would probably take them a long time to arrive.
It would be troublesome to meet those people from Cangfeng Valley along the way. Granny’s “hitting bulls across the mountain” is no longer effective. Ah, no matter what, just be careful. When Dongjie and Shibo meet up, they won’t be afraid anymore.
After that, the two of them walked in the mountains for three days and three nights. Yi Chen gradually recovered some of his vitality. However, along the way, he discovered that this strange granny seemed to be a little cold-fearful, and she often covered her lower abdomen and broke out in sweat.
On the fourth day, they finally approached Dongjie. This morning, the two of them arrived at a green valley. The flowers in the valley were like brocade, and the green lake was like a mirror. The scenery was very pleasant. Granny suddenly said, “You are not allowed to come out of the cave. I will go down to the lake.”
“Oh.”
Yi Chen thought to himself that he would have to go to the lake to change and wash up. “Well, then I’ll wait for her in the cave,” he said.
“Hmph.” The granny snorted coldly and walked towards the distant lake. It was thirty to fifty feet away. She turned around and said, “If you dare to come out and peek, your old body will dig out your eyes and do what you said.”
Yi Chen had already walked to the entrance of the cave, but when he heard this, he couldn’t help but be stunned. This granny’s words were strange. She was a man with a strong blood aura, so why would she peek at an old man like you when she had nothing to do? That’s baffling.
…
Note: Everyone must be puzzled as to why Xiao Cangtian was unable to discover the devil essence that had crossed into Yi Chen’s body back then. However, this “Granny” was able to discover it instantly. What was even more powerful was that she was able to use it. For the time being, Rong Gu Yi would sell it for a while before disintegrating the plot with fellow Daoists.
In addition, why Nichang and Fu Ling addressed Mei Jianyi as Senior Sister, Yi Chen addressed Mei Jianyi as Senior Martial Uncle, while Nichang, Fu Ling, and the others addressed Yi Chen as Senior Martial Uncle was very simple. It was all because of Ling Yin’s special status, so there was no need to repeat it here.
