The Scrolls Are Finally Complete!

"This is a godsend!" the 'sir' thought with elation.

He is currently 50 kilometers (100 li) away from the Chu Household Grounds. If he uses that treasure to travel at supersonic speed, he can reach the Chu Household Grounds's territory in three minutes at most!

"The Chu Household's <Sword Formula> will ultimately end up in my hands." The master climbed out of the Blood Pool, and with a wave of his hand, a black beast leaped out from the depths of the cave.

It was a ferocious beast resembling a Western dragon, lizard-like in shape, with curved horns on its head, wings on its back, and its body covered in scales; it looked fierce.

However, this Western dragon was not a living creature, but a puppet flying beast.

This is a magical artifact used by cultivators to travel. It can be powered by energy sources such as Spirit Stone. The higher the quality of the Spirit Stone, the faster the puppet beast can fly.

With a heavy heart, the 'sir' pulled out a blood-red jade stone from his pocket. This was the 'Blood Sea Jade' he had developed using the remnants of a weapon-forging scroll he found in Primordial Ruins. It was the treasure that Gongzi Hai wanted to use to replace the 'Blood God Diamond'!

The process of creating Blood Sea Jade is not much easier than that of 'Blood God Diamond'. And every time 'Master' casts the 'Star Transposition' formation, he needs to consume two 'Blood Sea Jade's', and he feels a pang of heartache every time he uses them.

After gritting his teeth, the 'master' opened the chest cavity of the Puppet Black Dragon, took out the Spirit Stone inside, and replaced Spirit Stone with this 'Blood Sea Jade'.

If it weren't for the need to hurry on his journey, he wouldn't have been willing to waste the 'Blood Sea Jade'.

Unfortunately, when powered by ordinary Spirit Stone, the 'Puppet Black Dragon' can only reach half the speed of sound. Only by replacing it with the 'Blood Sea Jade', which has purer and more powerful energy, can the Puppet Black Dragon travel through the sky at the speed of sound, or even supersonic speed.

After the Blood Sea Jade was inserted, the Puppet Black Dragon's eyes glowed with a strange red light.

"Let's go to the 'Chu Household Grounds'," the man shouted as he climbed onto the Puppet Black Dragon.

The Black Dragon flapped its wings and soared into the sky.

Above the cave, an ascent passage opened automatically, and the Black Dragon transformed into black light, flashing towards the Chu Household Grounds.

Two minutes later.

The black Puppet Dragon suddenly descended, its thick hind legs stomping the ground, blocking Chu Chu and the Chu Household disciples.

"Who goes there?" The Chu Household disciple looked Vigilance at the Puppet Dragon and the strange-looking 'master' on it.

The strange man snorted coldly, his gaze falling on Chu Chu.

"We meet again, Miss Chu Chu." He smiled smugly.

Chu Chu:"?"

She didn't remember ever seeing this man before.

The man leaped down from the Puppet Dragon, and behind him, a curved dagger rose into the air, threatening the Chu Household before him. "Now, I have no time to waste with you. Hand over the scroll of the <Sword Formula>!"

"Don't even think about it!" Chu Chu hugged the Sword Formula tightly.

At the same time, a Chu Household beside her secretly pulled out a thin rope-like object from behind her back, intending to send a signal into the sky.

We're already close to the Chu Household Grounds. As soon as the signal is sent, the Chu Household family elders, as well as the Household Patriarch Chu who displayed great prowess in the Immortal Severing Platform Battle, will arrive immediately!

But before he could send the signal, he felt a sharp pain in his shoulder. The curved knife slashed silently, severing his arm that was about to send the signal.

"I've already said I don't have time to waste with you." The 'gentleman' deftly weaved through the Chu Household members' obstruction with exquisite skill, moving to Chu Chu's side and reaching out to pinch her smooth chin. "Miss Chu Chu, this time you weren't as composed as you were in the secret chamber. I'm quite disappointed."

Chu Chu:"..."

She roughly understood; it seemed this man had been in contact with the 'transformed' version of Mr. Song Shuhang.

As they spoke, the 'sir' reached out and forcefully snatched the scroll of the <Sword Formula> from the weak and delicate Chu Chu's hands.

"I'll take the painting now. Genius Chu Chu, if you harbor resentment towards me, find a way to come find me." The gentleman smiled and said to Chu Chu, "I'll be waiting for you, and I'll prepare a grand welcome ceremony for you."

"One day, I will kill you," Chu Chu said through gritted teeth.

"I'm waiting for you, but I'll only give you one chance. If you can't kill me, then obediently become my woman." The man chuckled and leaped onto the 'Black Dragon Puppet'.

The Black Dragon Puppet soared into the sky, creating a sonic boom, and vanished. Speaking of which, the Chu Chu he encountered just now didn't possess the same heroic and captivating charm he felt when they last met. Could it be due to the different setting?

But now is not the time to think about these things. The most important thing is that he has collected all four scrolls of the <Sword Formula>!

After the gentleman disappeared.

Doudou's Dog-Hair Clone was speechless for a moment. "..."

Hey, this bastard dares to steal 'Chu Chu' from him? If my true form weren't here, I'd bite you to death in a heartbeat!

"What should we do, Senior Sister Chu Chu? The <Sword Formula> has been stolen!" Chu Household disciple cried out in panic.

"First, stop Chu Bu's bleeding and take him back to the clan territory to treat his injuries. We will retrieve the stolen <Sword Formula>." Chu Chu took a deep breath to calm herself down. "Chu Gui, you are the fastest. You go back to the clan territory first and tell the Household Patriarch Chu what happened. With the patriarch's cultivation of a Fifth-Grade Spirit Emperor, he might be able to catch up with that guy!"

"Yes, Senior Sister Chu Chu." The Chu Household named Chu Gui put down some items he was carrying and then ran towards the Chu Household Grounds as fast as he could.

Chu Chu sighed; the <Sword Formula> had ultimately been completely taken away by the enemy.

The Sword Formula, which Mr. Song Shuhang fought so hard to retrieve, was still stolen by the enemy...

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

The Void Sword Sect.

The defeat at the Immortal Severing Platform Battle resulted in the loss of an arm for the Supreme Elder Jian Yuanhai, who also had to hand over the sect's <Void Sword Scripture> as compensation to the Chu Household. The morale of the entire Void Sword Sect was low, with everyone hanging their heads in dejection and letting out sighs from time to time.

After returning to his sect, the Supreme Elder Jian Yuanhai immediately went into seclusion to recover from his injuries without making a sound.

After calming his disciples, Sect Leader Xu Zheng quietly returned to his residence alone.

Once back at his residence, the 'disappointed' expression on Xu Zheng's face completely disappeared.

He carefully took out his phone and found the text message from 'the master'. It contained only four words: [Plan successful]

These four words, however, made Xu Zheng feel exceptionally at ease.

The Chu Household, even if you win this battle at the 'Immortal Severing Platform,' what good will it do?

Didn't your Sword Formula fall into our hands?

Next, all he had to do was wait for that all-powerful 'master' to send someone to take him to study the Chu Household's <Sword Formula> together.

His cultivation level has been stuck at the Third-Grade rank for far too long, all because the foundation of his sect's <Void Sword Scripture> is insufficient! Once he learns the Chu Household's <Sword Formula>, his strength will definitely reach a higher level. Not to mention the Fourth-Grade, he might even be able to condense a Golden Core, step into the Spirit Emperor realm, and live for a thousand years!

After finally calming her excited heart, Xu Zheng sent a text message to 'Sir': "Sir, what should I do next after the plan succeeds?"

Soon, the master replied, "Xu Zheng, you are in a hurry. In a little while, I will send six servants to the Void Sword Sect. They will give you a jade talisman. With that talisman, you can find my location. At that time, we can study the Chu Household's <Sword Formula> together, research it together, and make progress together."

After receiving the text message, Xu Jian breathed a deep sigh of relief.

Soon after, two monks dressed as servants of the "master" arrived at the Void Sword Sect with four strange men shrouded in black and with countless spikes sticking out of their heads.

Sect Leader Xu Zheng quickly welcomed the six guests into his courtyard and treated them with great hospitality.

The two servants were serious and unsmiling. After entering the courtyard of the Xu Zheng, Xu Zheng, one of the servants took out a jade box from his pocket and handed it to Xu Zheng.

Behind them, a strange man with spikes on his head clasped his hands in a fist salute and said in a deep voice, "Xu Zheng, this jade box was brought to you by 'Master.' Please take a look and inspect it. If there are no problems with the items, we will take our leave."

Xu Zheng smiled and nodded, then opened the jade box in front of the two servants and four men in black.

However, when the jade box was opened, there was no 'jade talisman' inside at all.

Instead, a cloud of smoke instantly spread out, rapidly engulfing the entire courtyard and even extending outwards, seemingly threatening to engulf the entire Void Sword Sect.

"Huh?" Xu Zheng's eyes widened. Where's the jade talisman? Why isn't there one?

Then, a strong feeling of dizziness washed over him.

What happened?

"Hehehehe, foolish and greedy fellows." The spiky monster that had spoken earlier sneered, then turned to its two servants and said, "Then, as agreed, we Sea Urchin Warrior will take the 'True Blood' of everyone in the 'Void Sword Sect.' As for their bodies, they will be left for your master to refine the 'Blood Sea Jade.'"

The two 'servants' nodded slightly.

"Move out, you sea urchin bastards! Collect all the 'True Blood,' and don't let a single human cultivator escape!" the spiky monster roared. With his voice, more than five hundred Sea Urchin Warrior appeared near the Void Sword Sect. Taking advantage of the mist, they charged into the heart of the Void Sword Sect.

Under the shroud of mist, the disciples of the Void Sword Sect, just like the disciples of the 'Chu Household Grounds,' inexplicably fainted. The Sea Urchin Warrior charged into the mist, cutting down all the Void Sword Sect cultivators they encountered like vegetables, then stabbing their bodies with their spikes to extract their 'True Blood'.

The Sea Urchin Warrior, speaking in a deep, muffled voice, then approached Void Sword Sect, the leader of the Xu Zheng.

"Why?" Xu Zheng roared. Despite his Third-Grade- grade cultivation level, he hadn't immediately fainted due to the mist, but he was weak and powerless.

Why would someone who is a close friend of his, despite their age difference, want to kill him?
