However, just two days after the Nine-Infant Demon Mother laid out this plan, Sneaky Ancestor, who had been following at Wei Tu's side, suddenly turned grave.
"Feng Qing has already arrived in the Cloudmist Realm?"
Seeing this, Wei Tu made a guess of his own.
Although Sneaky Ancestor had previously said that Feng Qing would need at least another half month before he could use the Soul-Chasing Forbidden Curse to completely lock onto his trail.
During that time, however, Feng Qing would hardly remain loitering in another realm. He would surely come ahead of time to the Cloudmist Realm, where he could determine Sneaky Ancestor's exact location.
"If so... I can borrow Startling Swan Adept's strength this time as well..." Wei Tu's gaze flickered as he looked toward a neighboring pavilion not far from his cave abode.
At the entrance to that pavilion stood Startling Swan Adept, chatting and laughing with the cultivators from the Sky-Demon Realm.
He looked refined and scholarly, like a mortal schoolteacher, without the slightest overbearing aura of a Mahayana cultivator.
Yet Wei Tu, who had dealt with Flower Plume Ancestor and the others, knew full well that this cultivator was no simple figure.
Among the Six Immortals of the Sky-Demon Realm, he was a Mahayana powerhouse who could stand shoulder to shoulder with Immortal Minghong.
Do not be fooled by the fact that Immortal Minghong, like Flower Plume Ancestor and the others, had fled in disarray when facing the Three Lives Immortal Sect's leader. One had to remember... they had been facing the leader of the Three Lives Immortal Sect, a being standing at the pinnacle of Mahayana and possessing Three Lifetimes Bodies...
Before other cultivators, figures like Startling Swan Adept and Immortal Minghong were peerless experts second only to the Feather Dragon Clan's Dragon
