Where Had Song Shuhang Gone?

What a luxurious lineup!

With the patriarch's cultivation level, he could even see the powerful spiritual energy fluctuations forming a huge spiritual energy vortex above the heads of the group of cultivators sitting in rows.

The spiritual energy within a radius of a hundred miles was forcibly drawn in by this vortex, and ultimately poured into the bodies of the powerful cultivators present.

This lineup is absolutely dazzling! They could practically take on some major sects!

"Wen Yan, who are these elders?" the clan elder asked in a low voice.

Wen Yan was the name of an elder of the Chu Household.

"Grandpa, these... these should be considered friends brought by Xiao Chu Chu, right?" Elder Chu Wenyan wasn't sure either—after all, where did Xiao Chu Chu run off to after the competition? And what exactly did Xiao Chu Chu experience on her adventures these past few days that allowed her to get involved with so many senior figures?

The clan elder nodded, and his flying sword landed in its sheath at his waist. He then tidied his appearance and approached the cultivators of the 'Nine Provinces Number One Group'.

"Chu Kangbo of the Chu Household greets all fellow Daoists and seniors." The patriarch's grandfather bowed and said... Judging from his attire, the patriarch of the Chu Household seemed to have been a scholar in the past, as he was very particular about etiquette.

"Greetings, Fellow Daoist Chu." Most of the cultivators in the Nine Provinces Number One Group returned the greeting with smiles— Chu Kangbo's cultivation level truly surprised the fellow Daoists in the Nine Provinces Number One Group.

Fifth-Grade, Golden Core Spirit Emperor! Although the quality of the Golden Core doesn't seem high, at most two or three Dragon Patterns, it is still a genuine Fifth-Grade Golden Core Spirit Emperor.

The Chu Household, a small but powerful family of cultivators, has actually produced a Golden Core Spirit Emperor; they must have had a great adventure.

With the Golden Core Spirit Emperor present, the final round of the Immortal Severing Platform is already a foregone conclusion.

The difference between the Fourth-Grade and Fifth-Grade represents another qualitative change.

"After the Immortal Severing Platform Battle, I, Chu, will warmly welcome all of you fellow Daoists and raise a cup to drink together!" Chu Kangbo was courteous, and his words carried a touch of the sourness of a scholar.

The fellow Daoists in the Nine Provinces Number One Group responded with a smile as well. Most of them had lived longer than Chu Kangbo, and if they really wanted to be jealous, they would be much more jealous than Chu Kangbo.

On the other side, Jian Yuanhai, the Supreme Elder of the Void Sword Sect Jian Yuanhai, was completely dumbfounded... A new member of the Chu Household flying over the sky was Fifth-Grade Spirit Emperor? Was this still the Chu Household?

This family is completely different from the Chu Household described in the intelligence.

******************************

Just as the fellow Daoists of the Nine Provinces Number One Group were exchanging ideas with Chu Kangbo, two figures approached the location of the Immortal Severing Platform from afar.

One figure stood with his hands behind his back, while another figure was supported by a flying sword.

It was none other than Venerable White and Chu Chu.

"Senior White!" When all the fellow cultivators in the Nine Provinces Number One Group saw Venerable White, they immediately stood up and greeted him loudly, each one afraid that if they were a little slow in their greetings, Venerable White would take notice of them.

Venerable White smiled and nodded, his gaze sweeping over the crowd before asking, "Where did Shuhang go?"

So, earlier, when Miss Chu Chu was in the tent, she suddenly needed to take care of some physiological needs.

Chu Chu, after all, only Second-Grade Cultivator and has not yet reached the state of complete Grain-Avoidance Realm. In some ways, she is still the same as ordinary people.

However, outside, Song Shuhang was transforming into her appearance to participate in the Immortal Severing Platform Battle. Therefore, she couldn't openly leave the tent to relieve herself.

... And obviously, she couldn't possibly relieve herself in the tent.

So in the end, Venerable White used a trick to deceive Chu Chu and secretly took her to a nearby place to relieve her physiological needs.

Women are sometimes much more troublesome than men.

When Venerable White returned with Chu Chu, they discovered from afar that the Immortal Severing Platform Battle was over, but Song Shuhang was nowhere to be seen.

In the blink of an eye, where did Song Shuhang go?

At this moment, Northern River's Loose Cultivator replied, "Senior White, after the second round of the Immortal Severing Platform Battle ended, my young friend Shuhang went to look for you in the back. Later, I saw him and Miss Soft Feather leave quietly, and I don't know where they went so mysteriously."

Mad Saber Three Waves immediately chimed in, "Youth is truly wonderful!"

All eyes immediately turned to Three Waves... If only those words could reach Venerable Spirit Butterfly's ears.

"Oh." Venerable White nodded.

Since he left with Soft Feather, there's no need to worry about Song Shuhang getting lost.

After the Immortal Severing Platform Battle is over, let Song Shuhang go to the secret chamber to settle the karmic Cause and Effect with the rogue cultivator 'Li Tiansu'. Then the Chu Household's affairs can be put to rest.

Then, His Venerable announced that he would organize a [Hand Tractor Race].

After pondering for a moment, the Venerable pointed a finger, and the flying sword fell, placing the heavily injured Chu Chu back on the ground.

At this moment, Chu Kangbo, standing to the side, stared intently at Venerable White —this senior is truly beautiful, so captivating that one cannot look away! Ah, no, I misspoke. The aura emanating from this senior is as vast as the starry sky. With his Fifth-Grade Golden Core Spirit Emperor cultivation, he couldn't discern the senior's cultivation level at all. He wondered what terrifying realm this senior had already reached.

"Chu Kangbo greets Senior Bai. My family has been well taken care of by this senior, and I am eternally grateful!" Chu Kangbo bowed deeply to Senior White.

Chu Chu is so lucky to have gotten involved with such a senior figure; her future will definitely be better than mine.

Venerable White smiled slightly at Chu Kangbo: "It was just a small favor, no need to be polite."

After saying that, Venerable White went to the middle of the Chu Household camp and the Void Sword Sect camp, reached out and flicked the missile, and with one hand pulled the huge and heavy missile out of the ground.

Then, Venerable White returned to the Chu Household camp with the missile in one hand. There was still one last round in the Battle of Immortal Severing Platform, and taking advantage of the free time, the Venerable wanted to disassemble the missile to see its internal structure.

Perhaps this will inspire him to further improve the 'Disposable Flying Sword' version.

When the Chu Household saw this powerful senior cultivator carrying missiles approaching, they immediately swallowed hard, and each of them involuntarily took a few steps back.

Fellow Daoists in the Nine Provinces Number One Group broke out in a cold sweat.

Chu Kangbo: "?" Is that the real thing in this senior's hand? What does this senior want to do?

Just as Chu Kangbo was pondering, the summons from the guardians of the Immortal Severing Platform rang out.

The final round of the Immortal Severing Platform begins!

The Supreme Elder of the Void Sword Sect Jian Yuanhai his appearance.

Chu Kangbo, a grandfather-level figure from the Chu Aristocratic Clan, takes the stage!

This is a battle that will determine the fate of a faction and a family!

******************************

Meanwhile, the Chu Aristocratic Clan.

Suddenly, a wisp of smoke enveloped the very center of the clan's territory.

In the center of the clan's territory, all the Chu Household who smelled the smoke suddenly collapsed to the ground, falling into a coma.

A moment later, two members of the Chu Household, each with a bright pearl in their mouth, cautiously appeared in the center of the clan's territory.

Behind them, ten figures appeared one after another.

At the very front was a man dressed as a schoolteacher from ancient times, waving a folding fan and wearing a confident smile.

Behind him were four servants carrying scrolls and paintbrushes.

Next came five strangely large men. These five men were bulky, but not in the way that they were made of fat.

Five burly men dressed in black, their heads covered only by masks that revealed their eyes.

But these weren't the strange things. What was strange was that black spikes were protruding from their hoods. Not only their heads, but also their bodies were covered with black spikes.

A faint demonic aura emanated from them...

"Sir, the entrance to the secret chamber is just ahead. However, the key to the secret chamber is in the hands of the clan elder, and we have no way of obtaining it. Moreover, the entrance has been set up with a defensive array, so even if we had the key, the two of us wouldn't be able to get in," the two members of the Chu Household said.

"It's alright, you've done very well. After this is over, you'll be rewarded with wealth and honor. I can also help you achieve your wish to join a stronger sect." The gentleman waved his folding fan and smiled, "Time is short. We finally managed to get that old fellow away from the Chu Household Grounds, so we must hurry."

After saying this, the gentleman stepped forward and pointed his folding fan at the keyhole of the secret room entrance.

Without the man making any move, the keyhole to the secret room was turned... and the door to the secret room was opened just like that.

Then, the gentleman opened his folding fan and gently clapped it several times in the air in front of him.

The defensive array of the secret chamber was thus quietly broken.

This method of breaking the restrictions is not much inferior to the methods of the famous "Empty Thieves' Sect" in the Cultivation World.

After unlocking the secret technique, the master said to the two Chu Household, "Would you two like to come down with me?"

The two Chu Household disciples nodded frantically.

You should know that it contains a mysterious Sword Formula. Once they go down there, as long as they rely on the powerful memory of cultivators, they can memorize the Sword Formula perfectly, which will definitely be of great help to their future.

"Those two, come down with me." The man smiled slightly, then said to the five strange, burly men covered in spikes, "You two guard the area... If anyone from the Chu Household manages to get close, try to eliminate them instantly."

"Yes!" the five strange, burly men replied in muffled voices, their pronunciation odd, as if they were speaking to someone across the surface of water.

The man nodded, then led the four servants and two Chu Household into the secret chamber.

Upon entering the secret chamber, the man's lips curled into a smile, "Mystic Sword Formula, hehe."

This is not just a simple Mystic Sword Formula Sword Formula... it also contains a huge secret.

*********************

"The Chu Household Grounds is just ahead!" Soft Feather smiled and put her phone away.

She had marked the Chu Household family's address on her phone's map, so she wouldn't make any mistakes on the way!

Looking ahead, Song Shuhang saw the Chu Household Grounds, which resembled an inconspicuous little mountain village hidden deep in the mountains...
