Above all spirits

Chapter 248 The Interlude Subsides

Just as Lin Hu was completely swallowed up by the darkness of the eternal night.

The weight that had been pressing on Hua Xin'er's heart finally lifted. In fact, after Lin Hu broke through to the half-step Xiantian realm, this weight had been pressing on her every day, making it hard for her to breathe. There were even several times when she had to take a detour out of frustration. Now, news of a celestial treasure on Titan Star had attracted many powerful young men.

Feng Shangyun was one of them. He was thinking about whether he could find someone to help him get rid of Lin Hu, his enemy. This would put his mind at ease and he wouldn't have to worry about the Heavenly Blade Pavilion coming after him.

Now, witnessing her mortal enemy vanish completely, she couldn't help but take a deep breath, then slowly exhale, intending to release all the tension and pressure that had been building up for so long.

Immediately afterwards, an indescribable joy washed over me like a tidal wave.

A smile, long hidden, finally bloomed on her face. She took Feng Shangyun's arm beside her, shook his arm playfully, and said with great joy.

"Brother Feng, you're amazing!"

"So handsome!"

...

the other side.

Gu Yun patted Xiao Li, who was lost in thought, to show her concern.

"What, is this the first time you've seen someone die?"

"Is Crimson Flame Star really that peaceful?"

"If you had been there during the invasion of the Heavenly Demons on Canglan Star, wouldn't you have been so scared that your soul would have flown straight to the other side?"

Xiao Li rubbed his eyes and shook his head.

"Not really, but such a bizarre way of dying is a bit... a bit... creepy."

"Is the Feng family an evil sect?"

Gu Yun thoughtfully recalled the Eternal Night Sealing Heaven and said.

"It should just be that the sword intent is a bit domineering and unpredictable. Anyone who can connect with the Star Alliance would not be labeled as evil on the surface."

In contrast to Gu Yun and Xiao Li's calmness, the three fellow disciples from the Heavenly Blade Pavilion beside them were already pale with fright. The journey to Titan Star had not even officially begun, and their powerful team leader and senior brother had been killed by someone else, his body and soul destroyed!

Two of the junior sisters nervously turned their gazes to Liu Ping, the second strongest among their group, their eyes filled with fear.

"Senior Brother Liu...now we...should..."

But what could Liu Ping do at this moment? He was only at the eighth level of the Saint Body, which was nothing in Feng Shangyun's eyes. He swallowed hard, his face as pale as paper, and large beads of sweat rolled down his forehead. After calming himself down a bit, he blurted out.

"Let's go! Back to the Heavenly Blade Pavilion!"

Before he finished speaking, Liu Ping turned around and ran away the way he came, with the glow of various magical treasures appearing in the distance.

Seeing this, the other two junior sisters immediately woke up from their daze. After exchanging glances, they also used all their skills, either relying on magical treasures or using their unique lightness skills, to follow closely behind Liu Ping and flee in panic.

In an instant, figures appeared and disappeared into the vast void.

Feng Shangyun did not pursue them to the bitter end. Although he was somewhat exhausted at the moment, he could easily deal with Lin Hu's three junior brothers and sisters from the Heavenly Blade Pavilion. Killing a few people at the seventh or eighth level of the Saint Body level would not require much effort for a half-step Xiantian.

It's just that he didn't need to go to such extremes. Wouldn't it have been better to just leave himself a legitimate excuse? The Heavenly Blade Pavilion wouldn't dare to confront the Feng family, and he could still have a reason to stand up for himself within the Feng family, even if it might be a flawed argument.

"You won't run?"

Feng Shangyun resumed his aloof and arrogant demeanor, sheathed his longsword, put his other arm around Hua Xin'er's waist, the fragrance filling his nostrils, and glanced lightly at Gu Yun and Xiao Li, speaking with a hint of doubt and sarcasm.

Gu Yun's nonchalant attitude after witnessing his methods made him both displeased and wary.

Judging from their attire, these two don't seem to be from the Heavenly Blade Pavilion, and probably don't have a deep relationship with Lin Hu. In fact, Gu Yun, with his peak Saint Body strength, could have intervened in the battle just now. Although he had Hua Xin'er's help on his side, if she had interfered, he wouldn't have been able to kill Lin Hu so easily.

Could it be that he's worried about the Feng family behind him?

Come to think of it.

The Feng family is not one that just anyone can confront head-on.

They are smart.

Otherwise, he wouldn't mind killing two more people.

If the heavens hadn't given birth to my style and cloud, my pretentious ways would have remained in eternal darkness!

Upon realizing this, the slight apprehension that had previously lingered in Feng Shangyun's eyes vanished completely.

Gu Yun seemed to notice the change in Feng Shangyun's emotions, but his tone remained calm.

"Run? Why run? Our destination is Titan, why?"

Feng Shangyun was slightly taken aback. He stared at Gu Yun's somewhat eerie blood-red eyes for a while, trying to find a trace of other emotions in them, but naturally failed.

With a beautiful woman by his side, his mind was already occupied by a certain thought. At the same time, he was too lazy to argue with a nobody like Gu Yun. Without the Eternal Night Sword Intent, if Gu Yun in front of him wanted to escape, there was nothing he could do.

He shrugged, then slowly walked away in the opposite direction of the boundary gap with Hua Xin'er in his arms, his back to Gu Yun, and then smiled contemptuously.

"Hehehe, with your peak Saint Body strength, I advise you to go home and be a local tyrant. Don't go to Titan to join the fun, or you won't even know how you died."

Gu Yun naturally wouldn't argue with someone like Feng Shangyun.

If a dog bites you, are you going to bite the dog back?

He sneered inwardly, but didn't pay much attention to it. After all, getting entangled with this kind of person would only waste his energy.

They walked side by side with Xiao Li, gradually approaching the boundary gap of Titan.

As Gu Yun walked at a leisurely pace, his gaze remained fixed on the slowly changing flow of rocks ahead. There were strong spatial fluctuations there, making it hard to ignore. Every rock that sped past seemed to be devouring the surrounding aura, giving people an involuntary sense of oppression.

However, this feeling has eased considerably compared to before.

It seems that, as Lin Hu said, this rockfall does indeed have a certain periodicity.

It is estimated that the rockfall here will subside and return to calm in about half an hour.

So how do we get to Titan?

Are we left with no choice but to follow the map?

Gu Yun had considered quietly following a group of people.

However, the spatial fluctuations here are too great and too unstable, requiring constant readiness, making it difficult to use the All-Powerful Stealth ability for tracking.

However, blindly following a particular team might arouse their suspicion or even lead to unnecessary fighting.

A battle taking place in the interdimensional gap would likely cause the space to collapse, something even Gu Yun would try his best to avoid.

The spatial force released after the space collapses is no joke.
