Chapter 485: 485
The elder dressed in blue stood erect in mid-air, coldly looking at Chen Zi . He had not anticipated that Chen Zi would actually appear in Panli City at this moment, or that she would kill the sect leader’s favorite youngest son, Liu Jiang .
Although the death of Liu Jiang was unrelated to him and the sect leader would not do anything to an elder like him, the sect leader would still surely be dissatisfied . After all, he was in charge of Panli City, so the incident was somewhat his responsibility .
However, if he could capture Chen Zi, it would be a great achievement . That was why he personally took matters into his own hands, sealing the entire city and not giving the other party a chance to escape .
All of these movements had attracted the attentions of the surrounding patrols . As such, large groups of law-executors surrounded the place and blocked off the whole area .
“Jianyou Sect’s Elder Xu Zhong . ” Chen Zi’s facial expression was tense .
She recognized the elder dressed in blue . He was one of the four great sect elders in the Jianyou Sect . His cultivation was preceded only by that of the Jianyou Sect’s sect leader .
Right now, it was clear to her that she could no longer hide her identity in front of Xu Zhong . In fact, it was possible that Xu Zhong already knew her identity, since he had seen her portrait .
“Young mistress Chen, you surprise me . The Intentionless Sect that is led by Chen Zikuang fights stubbornly with their backs against the wall, and they have actually held the Sacred Flame Sect off for half a month . If Chen Zikuang knows that his precious daughter is in our hands, I’m not sure how much longer he will be able to last . ” Xu Zhong sniggered .
If he personally caught Chen Zi, it would be a great achievement for him . If he then handed Chen Zi over to the Sacred Flame Sect, so that they could use her to threaten the Intentionless Sect, the Sacred Flame Sect would surely remember his contribution .
Then, the Sacred Flame Sect might pull some strings and support him in becoming the sect leader of the Jianyou Sect . All of this was not impossible!
“Factions from other districts have invaded us . You are complicit in the Sacred Flame Sect’s invasion, as you became their running dogs . Aren’t you scared that your infamy will be remembered for all time?” Chen Zi asked, while she coldly laughed .
A war between cross district factions was usually waged in order to unite together against an external threat . As such, even if they did not form an alliance, they would not add insult to injury . When the Intentionless Sect was faced with disaster, the Jianyou Sect’s not aiding them was fine, but they were actually in cahoots with factions from other districts, which was not okay!
“Humph! In times of war, those who win become the rulers and those who lose are reduced to being mere bandits . In the future, when the Jianyou Sect controls the Qingzhen District, history will naturally be what we say it is . Then, your Intentionless Sect will just be the dust that disappears in the flow of history,” Xu Zhong said indifferently .
Although the actions of the Jianyou Sect caused many sects in the Qingzhen District to secretly cast them aside, no one dared say such to their faces! After all, this world only considered ability, as with ability, one could change anything . Those who complied would thrive, while those who resisted would perish .
“This is laughable . What does your Jianyou Sect amount to anyway? If you did not become the dog of the Sacred Flame Sect, did you think you would have amounted to anything? Even if the Jianyou Sect controls the Qingzhen District, you are still just a dog of the Sacred Flame Sect . Some people like to become dogs that threaten others with their master’s power…” Chen Zi’s words were sharp beyond compare .

She did not show Xu Zhong any respect . Many people agreed with what she was saying, but no one else dared say it themselves . Chen Zi, though, did not care .
“You presumptuous little b*tch . I will make you wish you were dead . ” Xu Zhong’s expression slightly changed, and a terrifying killing intent filled his eyes .
“What? Are you afraid that people will now say that you have become a dog? You lead the life of a wh*re, yet you expect a monument to your chastity to be built? You are deceiving everyone, including yourself . ” Chen Zi also went all out in his accusations .
If worst come to worst, she would die . After all, she had no other way out anyway . Even Mo Wen was not afraid, so she was determined that she would not be either .
“If it wasn’t for the fact that you still have some value, you would already be dead . ” Xu Zhong took a deep breath, actually calming down a bit .
Then, with a wave of his hand, he issued an order to the surrounding Jianyou Sect ancient martial arts practitioners . “Capture Chen Zi, then kill the rest!”
When faced with these few juniors, he was not even interested in doing this himself . After All, preventing Chen Zi from committing suicide was enough .
One by one, the ancient martial arts practitioners with good cultivations flew out from the roofs on both sides . They immediately surrounded Mo Wen and Chen Zi .
“Young mistress, I am incompetent . ” Zou Guangbo apologized as he crawled out from the ruins of the building that had collapsed .
With a few dashes, he stood in front of Chen Zi . He wore a sad expression on his face .
Right now, it was impossible for them to escape, even if they wanted to . They were surrounded, and there was also a Golden Elixir realm ancient martial arts practitioner staring at them . It appeared that only death awaited them .
“Uncle Zou, you should find an opportunity to escape . Mo Wen and I will stay behind . Don’t worry, as Xu Zhong will certainly not have time to deal with you for a while . ” Chen Zi sighed .
If Mo Wen could block Xu Zhong, with Zou Guangbo’s cultivation, he could still possibly escape . However, she knew that she could not leave, as she would never leave Mo Wen behind to escape by herself .
“Young mistress, you must be joking . I, Zou Guangbo, do not fear death . I just hate my own incompetence . ” Zou Guangbo shook his head, his eyes full of sadness to think that the once glorious Intentionless Sect had fallen to such a state .

“Both of you, escape together . Don’t stick around, as you will only get in my way . See, those people are already dashing towards us . There are twenty or so Embryonic Breathing realm ancient martial arts practitioners! I do not want to have to be concerned about you all while I’m battling a Golden Elixir realm ancient martial arts practitioner . ” As Mo Wen extended his hand, a golden light formed a light shroud, instantly enveloping Chen Zi and Zou Guangbo .
Then, with a flash of his silhouette, as though he had a golden light ball in his hand, he actually flew up into the sky . After flying fifty or so meters in the air, he simply swung his hand . When he did so, the golden ball with Zou Guangbo and Chen Zi within it immediately shot up into the sky and directly flew towards the city gates!
The Jianyou Sect ancient martial arts practitioners that were swarming in were all stunned by this sight . Originally, they had been prepared to go after easy prey and capture them all . But, they never thought that these people, who had originally had no way to escape, would actually fly off in an instant!
For a brief moment, everyone was looking at the youth in mid-air, who was emanating golden light from his entire body . They couldn’t believe that he could actually fly!
In the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension, only Golden Elixir realm ancient martial arts practitioners had this ability . Even Embryonic Breathing realm ancient martial arts practitioners could not accomplish such a feat!
This move of flying through the air had already befuddled all of the Embryonic Breathing realm ancient martial arts practitioners . They were on the ground and Mo Wen and the rest were in the air . So, they had to wonder…
How are we supposed to chase them?
Xu Zhong’s expression changed slightly . For the first time, he looked at Mo Wen very carefully . As his eyes flashed a serious look, he wondered…
Could it be that this youth has Golden Elixir realm cultivation? If so, how is that possible?
In the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension, a youth with such monstrous talent had never appeared before . Even among the Four Youth Leaders of the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension, only the leader Jiang Gujian had Golden Elixir realm cultivation .
Also, Jiang Gujian was already thirty years old . No matter how one looked at it, as this youth was only around twenty, he seemed to far surpass even him!
“Everyone, get out of the city and capture them . If anyone lets Chen Zi escape, when you come back, I’ll have your heads! But, if anyone successfully captures Chen Zi, he will be rewarded handsomely . ” Xu Zhong coldly gave orders, while he glanced at the golden ball of light that had already flown out of the north city gate .
He had chosen to not personally pursue them because he knew that, with this youth here, he would not be able to . He had to settle this youth first before he could do anything else .
On the ground, a group of Jianyou Sect ancient martial arts practitioners seemed as though they just awoken from a dream . They immediately changed directions and frenziedly headed towards the city gate .

After the golden ball of light enveloped both Chen Zi and Zou Guangbo, it flew out of the city gates in an instant . After travelling about a thousand or so meters, it landed on the ground .
Both Chen Zi and Zou Guangbo had astonished looks on their faces . They never would have thought that, one moment they would be trapped in the city, only to appear the very next moment outside of the city! The instant the golden light enveloped them, their entire bodies could not move at all .
“Young mistress, that youth…” Zou Guangbo drew in a cold breath .
His eyes were full of shock and awe . To be able to fly in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension had to mean that the youth had Golden Elixir realm cultivation! It just seemed too monstrous!
“He is very powerful…” Chen Zi also had a look of astonishment on her face .
The power that Mo Wen displayed just now was at a terrifying level . He seemed to not be any weaker than a Golden Elixir realm ancient martial arts practitioner . She knew that Mo Wen was really not simple, but even she had still underestimated him .
“Young mistress, we must escape! Quickly! Xu Zhong will certainly not let us go,” Zou Guangbo said .
He then glanced at their surroundings and discovered that they were already a kilometer away from the city gates . However, even this distance was still not safe, as Embryonic Breathing realm ancient martial arts practitioners could very quickly catch up to them .
“But… Mo Wen… He…” Chin Zi hesitated . She had never thought of leaving Mo Wen behind in the city, especially alone .
“The youth surely has the confidence of going against the Jianyou Sect on his own . What we should be worried about now is not him, but ourselves . ” Zou Guangbo laughed bitterly .
If the youth had Golden Elixir realm cultivation, aside from Xu Zhong, no one else in the entire Panli City could be a threat to him . On the other hand, they had twenty or so Embryonic Breathing realm ancient martial arts practitioners on their tails, and there could be even more coming after that!
Moreover, the two of them were not Mo Wen . When face with so many Embryonic Breathing realm ancient martial arts practitioners, they were still in great danger .
“What do we do now?” Chen Zi frowned .
“Of course, we should hide . Then, we can observe the situation and act accordingly . ” Zou Guangbo knew that Chen Zi did not want to abandon Mo Wen, but it seemed that they had no choice .
Hearing his plan, Chen Zi nodded her head . She clearly knew in her heart that their staying behind was of no use at all . They would only be a burden to Mo Wen .
After making this decision, the two of them dove into the virgin forest in the deep mountains, but they did not take the main path . Instead, they took the mountain paths to increase the difficulty of the Jianyou Sect ancient martial arts practitioners’ hunt .
On the Jianyou Sect’s side, the city gates opened and a large group of people swept out from the city . They swarmed out of the city, while searching every area outside of the city .
“Young man, who are you?” In the city, Xu Zhong floated in the air, careful to not make any sudden movements . His eyes were still staring at Mo Wen .
At such a young age, Mo Wen already had an impressive cultivation . This was unheard of in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension .
So, Xu Zhong had to wonder…
Could it be that he was from other Inner Worlds? If so, I cannot take that lightly . After all, to be able to cultivate such a youth, the sect behind him must really not be simple!
“Who do you hope I am?” Mo Wen curled his lips into a smile and asked .
“You aren’t from the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension, are you? I hope you will not interfere with the affairs of the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension . After all, every Inner World has their own set of laws . An outsider like you interfering would not be appropriate,” Xu Zhong said .
It was rare for an ancient martial arts practitioner from another Inner World to appear in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension . After all, as they were separated by a few dimensions, crossing over was very difficult .
Also, even if there were other Inner World ancient martial arts practitioners in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension, most of them would not interfere in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension’s sect battles .
Although the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension was small, it did not accept the intervention of other Inner World factions . If such an incident occurred, all of the sects in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension would unite to resist it .
