"Who is Chu Yang?" Hearing Xiao Hua's almost muttered voice transmission and his wildly leaping words, Murong Congyun was left dumbfounded.
"Chu Yang is a Chu Family disciple this Xiao encountered earlier before the restrictions of the Divine Demon Blood Swamp!" Xiao Hua explained as he watched the Vajra Demon Array Diagram, which had yet to fully take shape. "His background was somewhat miserable, and he cultivated the Life and Death Talisman, which inevitably leads to death. What was especially strange was that this Life and Death Talisman even required Daoist spells to activate. Perhaps he had been beguiled by a Buddhist sect disciple. He wanted to find a Daoist sect disciple, but unexpectedly, he found this Xiao instead. This Xiao happened to be there when that man killed himself, and you saw the consequences. The Buddhist sect disciples used Chu Yang's hand to force the Chu Family into acting three days ahead of schedule, while the Chu Family's experts, as well as those of the other great families, were not here. The Buddhist sect disciples caught us completely off guard."
"Yes. With things brought forward like this, although I have only just stepped into fifth-grade Yuan force, in this Divine Demon Blood Swamp, under the Buddhist sect's schemes, I truly might lose my life," Murong Congyun said with a bitter smile.
"Alas, fifth-grade Yuan force! Miss Murong, how old are you?" Xiao Hua asked as he looked at Murong Congyun.
"Ah? Wh-why are you asking that?" Murong Congyun asked, puzzled.
Xiao Hua shook his head slightly. Watching the Buddhist Sect array diagram descend, he smiled bitterly. "Previously, this Xiao felt that Nascent Soul was beyond reach, and that fourth-grade Yuan force was like a deity. But now, every person I meet seems to be fifth-grade or sixth-grade Yuan force.
