Capítulo 1850: Chapter 1877: Isn’t the Sidewalk Spacious Enough?
The two left.
They headed towards the core area of the Eight Desolates Domain.
The central region was crowded, and with the strong ones rushing to Xiaobai Academy passing through the core area, the chance of encountering allies was high.
“Mr. Yu is out!”
“See, I told you, I knew Mr. Yu would be fine!”
The cultivators who had previously fled from Xiaobai Academy hadn’t gone far, gathering anxiously outside the academy, waiting for the outcome of the struggle inside, and also waiting for rescuers from all walks.
At this moment, seeing Yu Huan Shui and his companion escape, they immediately rejoiced, swarming around them, eager to hear about Mr. Yu’s triumphant defeat of the intruders.
But soon, they sensed something was off. The golden war chariot didn’t slow down; instead, it was charging towards them.
“Why are there so many people?”
“Get out of the way, don’t block the road!”
“Run quickly, don’t say I didn’t warn you, you’ll all be sorry if you don’t move!”
Li Xiaobai shouted, forcefully forging a path through the crowd and rushing out.
Leaving numerous cultivators looking at each other, some not quite understanding what had happened.
However, considering the pair’s panicked appearance and the pile of crushed experts at the academy’s gate, a terrifying thought popped into their minds.
Mr. Yu and Senior Li weren’t victorious, but rather fled in defeat against the black-robed man!
The golden war chariot charged forward relentlessly, not watching the road, taking the shortest path between two points, ramming into everything from houses to stalls, even those randomly placed by cultivators, shattering them all.
“Little brother, watch the road, the street ahead is also blocked, damn, why are there so many people!”
Yu Huan Shui frowned, seeing a large group of carriages and riders blocking the way ahead, stretching for hundreds of meters.
These people were from major powers, coming from various stars, and obviously were planning to visit Xiaobai Academy, encountering them on the way.
These carriages weren’t ordinary; each was built with rare resources, extremely tough. Even if the golden war chariot could charge through, it would waste a lot of time and ultimately allow Da Jianbi to catch up.
“Who said we must take the main road? Isn’t the sidewalk spacious?”
Li Xiaobai pointed to a small road beside them, designated for pedestrians.
Carriages took the main road, pedestrians the sidewalk, preventing chaos. But with a madman chasing them, they couldn’t care less. The golden war chariot made a sharp turn and charged onto the sidewalk.
The crowd erupted in chaos, with cultivators slowly dodging aside.
“Whoa, who the hell is this, driving on the sidewalk!”
“Are they suicidal? They’ll be sanctioned by the Eight Desolates Domain patrol!”
“Quickly avoid it, this person is mad, putting his mount on the sidewalk!”
“Haha, probably some young master from a star, a group of self-important fools, seen so many these days, watch me teach him a lesson!”
The crowd scattered, dodging the golden war chariot, yet some experts refused to move, intending to teach Li Xiaobai a harsh lesson.
“Humph, boy, stop now, kneel, and beg for mercy, apologize to the people, and I may spare your life!”
A cultivator floated mid-air, his aura trembling, unleashing a terrifying pressure on the golden war chariot.
“Gate of Destiny!”
“Turn around, leave, and don’t block the road!”
With a wave of Yu Huan Shui’s hand, pages turned on the faces of those blocking the way, and in the next instant, they all stepped aside.
The war chariot sped away, vanishing from sight.
The cultivators were bewildered, utterly confused by the sudden madness.
“Did any of you feel those on the chariot seemed familiar?”
“I thought he looked like Mr. Yu, thought I was seeing things.”
“I thought so too, and that method of turning people into books was clearly Mr. Yu’s signature move!”
“But why is this happening…”
The cultivators recovered from the earlier chaos, expressions puzzled.
Before they could speak further, a black-robed man, cloaked tightly, floated gracefully into view.
“Everyone, my friends just passed by. Did you see them, driving a golden war chariot?”
“You’ll help me, won’t you?”
The black-robed man chuckled lightly.
The crowd was silent, unanimously pointing in one direction.
“Thank you.”
The black-robed man, politely bowed deeply, drifted towards where they had pointed, disappearing from view in an instant.
A few breaths later.
The people scratched their heads, feeling as if they had a spell cast on them just now, pointing the way simply because they were asked.
Never mind, it seemed to be Mr. Yu’s friend, probably no problem.
…
On the other side.
Li Xiaobai and Yu Huan Shui arrived at a castle. The cultivators of the Eight Desolates Domain weren’t united, especially the experts with eccentric, solitary habits.
This happened to be the residence of a certain expert.
“Indeed, we still need to seek help.”
“Is it reliable?”
“He’s a primitive, extremely formidable.”
The two scanned their surroundings; Da Jianbi hadn’t caught up yet.
They pushed open the castle door and entered.
As soon as they entered, a large round face suddenly appeared in front of them, his black sooty face full of pits, each hair strand stained with grime.
Li Xiaobai almost had a heart attack from the fright.
The man grumbled, “Am I good-looking?”
Li Xiaobai nodded instinctively, “Not bad.”
Yu Huan Shui slapped the face, “It’s me, being pursued, he’ll be here soon, deal with it.”
“Is he strong? If you can’t beat him, I’m certainly not his match.”
The slapped face contorted into a twisted mess, making Li Xiaobai shiver with dread.
“Not strong, just in the Immortal Gods Realm, you can easily crush him.”
Yu Huan Shui patted the face and hurriedly pulled Li Xiaobai upstairs.
This person seemed to be the ruthless one mentioned by the Hehuan Sect in the Three Talents Domain, hideously ugly, believing if you didn’t look at him on the street, you did so because he’s ugly, prompting him to chop your neck.
But if you stared at him, he’d think you find him ugly and chop your neck anyway.
Unexpected that Yu Huan Shui knew such a formidable character, indicating the primitive’s cultivation level was higher than the Immortal Gods Realm.
On the second floor.
The two found a hidden place to conceal themselves, silently watching the situation below.
Yu Huan Shui believed the primitive was capable of handling the black-robed man, but Li Xiaobai was less optimistic, thinking even with the primitive, it was still risky.
However, as long as one more person died, he was likely to understand Da Jianbi’s ability fully.
Mastering the rules meant he himself must comply with them. Once the prerequisites for the Law of Power’s activation were known, it could be used against Da Jianbi.
Just like the Law of Order in Jade Lotus Village.
Time ticked by second by second.
The atmosphere was tense. Li Xiaobai’s mind sank into the System interface; just fifteen minutes until it would recover, by which point he would become an Immortal Gods Realm cultivator.
“Knock, knock!”
The castle door suddenly rang with knocks.
A familiar voice came through, “Is anyone there? My two friends invited me here, I’m sure you’ll let me in, right?”
