"Stop them!"
Sky Shuttle arrived outside the mountain cave where the aura of the White Jade Demonic Lotus emanated from and barked an order at his fellow disciples beside him.
Although the White Jade Python had been the first to detect the White Jade Demonic Lotus's aura, Sky Shuttle and the others reacted at once. Relying on their superior movement techniques, they forcibly raced ahead of the White Jade Python and reached the mountain cave first.
Sky Shuttle was the first to arrive, and the obstruction he ordered was not merely meant to stop the Ancient Moon Sect—it was also meant to stop the furiously charging White Jade Python.
"Don't even think about it!"
On the Ancient Moon Sect's side, Wu Yuanbo's movement technique was no worse. Almost the instant Sky Shuttle gave the order, he leapt over the Mad Blade Sect group and approached the mountain cave alongside Sky Shuttle.
Since Lou Yue was carrying Lou Xinlan, he was a fraction slower and was intercepted by the remaining members of the Mad Blade Sect.
The two sides remained locked in a standoff for only half an instant.
The White Jade Python's arrival shattered the deadlock, and all parties began fighting again.
Because of the White Jade Demonic Lotus, this resource had entered the equation.
When the Mad Blade Sect group and Lou Yue's group joined forces against the White Jade Python, they were clearly no longer as united as before. Each held back some strength in preparation for the possible struggle over the White Jade Demonic Lotus afterward.
With such calculations in mind, all of them displayed far less strength. The White Jade Python easily broke through their encirclement and charged toward the mountain cave entrance.
By then, Sky Shuttle and Wu Yuanbo had already entered the mountain cave.
