Acheron: Don't Even Think About Hurting the Trailblazer! Sword and Bone Take Action Together!

At the foot of Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's mountain.

Tang San and Yu Xiaogang were making their way forward below.

The rest of Shrek Academy followed behind them.

Tang Hao had been severely weakened after the previous battle and was still recuperating at Shrek Academy.

Moreover, Ning Rongrong had already left the group, so if they wanted to find clues about Lu Jiang, they could only come to Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect themselves to seek out Ning Rongrong.

However, Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was, after all, a renowned sect on the Douluo Continent.

Without an introduction, they would likely be turned away at the gates.

Thus, Yu Xiaogang had led them here this time.

Surely the title of Grandmaster carried some weight within Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

At this moment, Tang San's face clearly carried a trace of resentment.

On one hand, his father had hidden his true strength from him for so long, yet after finally revealing it, he still had not defeated his opponent, allowing Xiao Wu to be taken away just like that.

On the other hand, it was because of his own weakness.

He had clearly sworn to protect Xiao Wu for the rest of his life, unwaveringly.

Yet he had failed to defeat even Lu Jiang, someone of the same generation. Where was he supposed to put his face?

Fortunately, they could now seek the help of Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

With such a massive sect backing them, finding the whereabouts of a junior should be effortless, shouldn't it?

Tang San silently swore to himself that as long as he saw Lu Jiang, he absolutely would not let him off.

Even if he had to give everything he had, he would definitely take Xiao Wu back.

At that moment, Ma Hongjun asked Yu Xiaogang from behind, "Um, Grandmaster, if we just go to Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect like this, will they really listen to us?"

"Even with Rongrong as a connection, asking such a huge sect to help us find someone still feels a little unrealistic."

Yu Xiaogang turned around and glanced at Ma Hongjun.

He then clasped his hands behind his back, smiled, and said, "Don't worry. I know what I'm doing."

"To be honest, I hold the position of Honorary Elder in Spirit Hall, so I do have some standing there."

"I'm sure Sect Master Ning won't treat us poorly."

An immensely proud expression appeared on Yu Xiaogang's face.

He looked as though he were some reclusive master.

If he had not said so himself, no one would have guessed that his position as an Honorary Elder had actually been bestowed by Bibi Dong during a moment of lovestruck foolishness.

Upon hearing Yu Xiaogang's words, Tang San's face immediately filled with admiration.

"Wow, Teacher, you actually hold a position in Spirit Hall? And you're even an elder?"

After all, the Shrek Academy group had only recently stepped into the world of soul masters.

To them, Spirit Hall was an untouchable holy land.

Being able to hold a post there meant that even when they went out in the future, mentioning their teacher would bring them honor.

Ordinary rogue soul masters did not even dare to compare themselves to Spirit Hall.

Tang San secretly rejoiced. He had not expected his teacher's background to be so profound. In that case, rescuing Xiao Wu was practically guaranteed!

The others also looked at Yu Xiaogang with admiration after hearing his words.

That was Spirit Hall. Every soul master on the continent had to be certified by Spirit Hall.

Who would have thought that their teacher, who was only in his thirties in level, had connections with Spirit Hall?

Among them, only Zhu Zhuqing stared at Yu Xiaogang with a grave expression.

She seemed to be pondering something.

Spirit Hall. Lu Jiang.

Afterward, the group began making preparations to go up the mountain and meet the sect master of Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

However, as they headed up the mountain, they discovered that something about the atmosphere around them seemed off.

The closer they got to Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, the more they could sense the strangeness of their surroundings.

The last time they had come, the mountain had been lush with trees, and the forest had been full of birds and beasts.

Yet this time, along the entire way, they had not seen a single living creature.

"Strange. Could all the animals in these mountains have died out?"

"Why can't we even see a single sparrow?"

Ma Hongjun scratched his head in confusion as he spoke to the others.

Dai Mubai then reminded him:

"Fatty, do you remember that explosion from the mountaintop the last time we came here?"

Ma Hongjun was immediately startled.

"Now that you mention it, I do remember something like that."

"But when we wanted to go up and take a look, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect disciples seemed to have turned us away."

"I originally thought it wasn't a big deal."

Dai Mubai nodded, then looked solemnly toward the mountaintop above.

"The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect must have suffered some kind of upheaval. Otherwise, Ning Rongrong couldn't have looked so flustered when she returned that day."

Suddenly, Ma Hongjun hid behind Dai Mubai with a frightened look on his face.

"Could there be some Evil Soul Master inside the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?"

"Otherwise, why isn't there a single living creature on the entire mountain?"

Dai Mubai kicked Ma Hongjun aside with a look of disgust.

"We won't know what's going on until we get up there."

"Let's go, Teacher."

Dai Mubai said to Yu Xiaogang.

Yu Xiaogang nodded, then led the group onward toward the mountaintop.

The closer they got to the mountain gate, the quieter their surroundings became.

Normally, by the time they reached this place, they should have been able to see the towering buildings of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

But now, the mountaintop was completely empty.

They could not help but grow worried.

Inside the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect at that moment.

Bone Douluo's weapon had snapped.

Shock was clearly visible on his face. Though he rarely used that weapon, its material was exceptional, and it was difficult for anyone below the rank of Titled Douluo to sever it.

Yet now, Acheron had cut it in two with a single strike!

That chilling blade flash forced Bone Douluo to take things seriously.

He looked toward Chen Xin beside him. The two exchanged a glance and nodded slightly.

Bone Douluo unleashed his domain. A powerful aura burst forth, and nine spirit rings floated around his body, fully displaying the might of a Titled Douluo.

He then joined forces with Sword Douluo to attack!

Even within the domains of Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo, Lu Jiang was still able to move freely.

This surprised Ning Fengzhi.

Sure enough, the strong were full of surprises. He had never had the chance to pay attention to the changes in Lu Jiang after his return.

Now it seemed that Lu Jiang hid far more secrets than he had imagined.

"You two, make sure you keep Lu Jiang here."

Ning Fengzhi said greedily as he looked at Lu Jiang.

Chen Xin merely nodded, then summoned several Flying Swords once more.

Meanwhile, Gu Rong opened a rift behind him. A Serpentine Spirit Beast that was nothing but a skeleton slowly crawled out of it, then coiled around Gu Rong's body.

Purple light flickered in Acheron's eyes as she declared in a firm, ringing voice:

"With me here, I will never allow you to harm the Trailblazer in the slightest."

The moment her words fell, chilling Blade Qi erupted from Acheron's body.

Chen Xin was stunned by the sight.

How could this little girl possess such pure Blade Qi?

Impossible!

Gu Rong, however, could not sense the Blade Qi.

He merely felt that the little girl was speaking too arrogantly.

Still, being able to cut his weapon in half meant she had some skill.

Just as they were about to make their move.

An angry shout suddenly came from the distance.

"LU JIANG!!!!!! I never thought you'd be here!"

Lu Jiang turned around and saw Tang San and the others standing outside the mountain gate.

They were glaring furiously at him.
