Chapter 262: Terror Valley!
Su Lengyu looked at the corpses on the ground with a grave expression.
“Even the master of Xuanyue Gate died here, and he had peak grandmaster level cultivation.”
Fang Yu asked: “Do you know when they came in?”
“They entered the valley with us, but… they left a few minutes before us,” Su Lengyu said, her expression suddenly changing.
Xuanyue Gate members had only left a few minutes earlier and met with such a fate.
Then wouldn’t they, who came shortly after, encounter the same danger?
Fang Yu scanned the corpses on the ground and suddenly noticed something.
“Their storage bags seem to have all been taken.”
Earlier while waiting outside Fallen Immortal Valley, Fang Yu had noticed that almost every sect disciple had a storage bag at their waist.
But now these corpses lying on the ground had nothing at their waists.
Obviously, their storage bags had been stolen.
Hearing Fang Yu’s words, Su Lengyu also noticed this point.
“Just to rob their belongings… they killed over a dozen people…” Su Lengyu looked at the corpses on the ground, sympathy appearing in her eyes.
“It’s probably not that simple,” Fang Yu said.
If it was just robbery, why drain all the blood from their bodies?
What could human blood be used for?
Everything Fang Yu could think of was related to evil cultivators.
“Master, what should we do now?” Liu Liansha came forward, glancing down at the corpses, feeling chilled to the bone seeing their terrified expressions.
Su Lengyu looked at Fang Yu.
Fang Yu looked around and said: “Let’s keep going forward, what else can we do?”
“But, but so many people died here…” Liu Liansha said tremblingly.
“Should we turn back now? If you turn back now, all the resources you paid to Tianxing Gate would be wasted…”
Speaking of this, Fang Yu suddenly thought of something and frowned.
“We might as well forget about it, safety comes first, right, Master?” Liu Liansha said, tugging at Su Lengyu’s sleeve.
Su Lengyu didn’t speak, but looked at the suddenly frowning Fang Yu.
“Brother Yu, did you think of something?” Su Lengyu asked.
Fang Yu came back to his senses, shook his head and said: “Let’s keep going forward.”
The female disciples didn’t dare go near the pile of corpses, keeping their distance as they went around them and continued deeper into the forest.
After seeing the strange deaths of the Xuanyue Gate group, these disciples’ moods had clearly dampened, with much less chattering. Many female disciples were pale-faced with lingering fear.
Even Su Lengyu’s mood had become heavy.
The dozen or so disciples she brought for training were all the elite of this generation of Frost Cold Palace.
The reason she personally led the team was to protect their safety.
After seeing what happened to the Xuanyue Gate team, she knew this journey would be far more dangerous than she had imagined.
They must stay vigilant and focused, not letting any female disciple get hurt.
Fang Yu walked behind Su Lengyu, looking at her waist-length blue hair, and said: “Lengyu, don’t you think your hair needs a trim?”
Su Lengyu was startled, then her cheeks turned slightly red as she said softly: “Does Brother Yu not like my long hair? I can cut it shorter…”
“It’s not that I don’t like it, I just think hair this long must be troublesome to wash?” Fang Yu said.
“…” Just as Su Lengyu was about to speak.
“Boom!”
A sudden explosion sounded from ahead!
Su Lengyu’s expression changed as she immediately signaled the disciples behind her to stop.
“Fall back! Fall back quickly!”
At this moment, a panicked male voice came from ahead, accompanied by screams and shrieks.
“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
A series of collision sounds rang out.
Soon, several people ran out from the forest ahead, their faces filled with terror.
They all had wounds and blood stains on their bodies, clearly having encountered danger.
“These are people from Thunder Sound Gate!” Su Lengyu said.
The leader, seeing Su Lengyu before him, brightened and shouted: “Palace Master Su, please help! There’s a powerful beast ahead!”
This person was Huang Daorong, the master of Thunder Sound Gate.
Su Lengyu had met him twice before, but they didn’t really have any relationship.
Now, faced with Huang Daorong’s plea for help, Su Lengyu frowned and looked ahead.
No matter what, she had to consider her disciples’ safety first, before helping others.
“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
At this moment, a huge dark shadow appeared in the distance.
“Roar!”
A massive roar echoed throughout the forest.
The female disciples of Frost Cold Palace let out screams.
Liu Liansha quickly hid behind Su Lengyu.
Huang Daorong and the four Thunder Sound Gate disciples behind him fled madly towards Su Lengyu’s direction.
At this time, the dark shadow revealed its true form.
It was a beast three to four meters tall!
From its appearance, it looked like a leopard.
But its skin had red patterns that looked like spirals when viewed from afar.
The female disciples of Frost Cold Palace looked at this huge leopard, their faces pale with fear!
This leopard was just too big!
At least three to four times larger than normal leopards!
“Roar!”
At this moment, the leopard opened its bloody maw and roared fiercely.
As it opened its mouth, they could vaguely see fresh blood from its previous meals still dripping down!
Seeing these things, the group of female disciples screamed repeatedly, backing away.
“Stay calm!” Su Lengyu’s expression changed slightly as she turned and shouted.
Huang Daorong and the others were still running towards Su Lengyu.
Meanwhile, the leopard’s hind legs began scraping the ground.
A sixth-rank beast, the Blood Flower Leopard!
Fang Yu’s eyes narrowed.
By now, Huang Daorong and the others had rushed in front of Su Lengyu.
“Palace, Palace Master Su, please save us…” Huang Daorong begged.
His left arm was dripping blood, clearly severely injured.
Su Lengyu was about to speak.
“Whoosh!”
At this moment, the Blood Flower Leopard in the distance had already sprung forward, charging rapidly towards Su Lengyu’s group!
The smell of blood was its only target!
Su Lengyu’s expression changed as she raised both hands and pushed forward.
“Boom!”
A wave of true qi surged forward.
The Blood Flower Leopard seemed to have anticipated this, its four limbs stomped the ground as it dodged sideways!
Its movements were extremely agile!
Less than twenty meters remained before the huge Blood Flower Leopard would reach them!
With a beast of this level, close combat must be avoided! Even with high cultivation, it would be hard to resist!
Su Lengyu’s expression was solemn as her jade-like hands twisted in the air.
A faint blue light appeared.
“Take care of your disciples, I’ll handle it.”
At this moment, a lazy voice reached Su Lengyu’s ears.
The next second, a figure flashed out from beside Su Lengyu.
“Whoosh!”
In an instant, Fang Yu had charged in front of the Blood Flower Leopard.
The charging Blood Flower Leopard seemed surprised that someone would dare to confront it head-on.
But it reacted quickly, immediately opening its bloody maw, wanting to swallow Fang Yu in one bite.
“The Blood Flower Leopard, commonly found in deep forests, has advantages in its innate combat awareness and extremely strong physical qualities. Whether in speed or strength, it ranks among the top of sixth-rank beasts.”
“Crack!”
The Blood Flower Leopard’s mouth snapped shut heavily.
But Fang Yu was not in its mouth.
Fang Yu’s figure appeared above the Blood Flower Leopard’s head!
“Roar!”
The Blood Flower Leopard had already realized this, raising its head only to see a fist!
“Boom!”
The next second, a huge explosion!
Dust flew up all around where the Blood Flower Leopard stood!
Su Lengyu and the others nearby immediately ordered the disciples to retreat.
As the dust gradually cleared.
A large pit appeared in the ground ahead.
The huge body of the Blood Flower Leopard lay in the earthen pit.
That massive head had been crushed by Fang Yu’s punch, warm blood slowly flowing out.
And now Fang Yu held a core emanating a faint light in his hand.
Under everyone’s watchful eyes, Fang Yu swallowed this fresh core in one gulp.
“This, this…” seeing this scene, Huang Daorong and the others were dumbfounded.
Seven or eight people from their Thunder Sound Gate training team had died in this leopard’s mouth.
Now, this leopard… was just killed like that?
Killed so easily?
The female disciples standing behind Su Lengyu also wore shocked expressions, not having yet recovered.
How could this ordinary-looking man, even younger than them, be so strong?
“Hmph, just showing off.” Liu Liansha looked at Fang Yu, feeling resentful.
“Sigh, a sixth-rank beast core doesn’t even help me anymore, can’t even break through one level.” Fang Yu shook his head somewhat disappointedly as he walked back to Su Lengyu.
“Many, many thanks for your help, friend.” Huang Daorong immediately bowed to Fang Yu.
Fang Yu glanced at Huang Daorong without speaking.
Huang Daorong also bowed to Su Lengyu, his face pale as he said: “Palace Master Su, I advise you not to go deeper… this opening of Fallen Immortal Valley is completely different from before!”
“Why do you say that?” Su Lengyu frowned and asked.
“We’ve barely gone in and already encountered such a powerful beast… and earlier on the way here, I encountered a group of dead people! Their manner of death was truly terrifying…” Huang Daorong said tremblingly, his face bloodless.
Su Lengyu glanced at Fang Yu and asked: “Were they lying on the ground with eyes wide open…”
“Yes! Yes! You’ve seen them too? Today’s Fallen Immortal Valley is no place for us to train! Leave quickly!” After speaking, Huang Daorong signaled the few surviving disciples behind him to follow him away.
Watching Huang Daorong and the others flee like escapees, Su Lengyu’s delicate brows furrowed.
She now had to consider whether to continue deeper as well.
“Brother Yu…” Su Lengyu turned to look at Fang Yu, about to speak.
“Thud!”
Just then, came the sound of bodies falling.
“Master… those people…” Liu Liansha pointed behind them, her face deathly pale.
Huang Daorong and the others, who were preparing to return, hadn’t run fifty meters before they all fell to the ground, motionless.
Su Lengyu looked at Fang Yu.
The two walked together towards where Huang Daorong and the others had fallen.
The female disciples of Frost Cold Palace all had pale faces as they followed behind.
Soon, Fang Yu and Su Lengyu reached the fallen bodies of Huang Daorong and the others.
They were all lying face down.
Fang Yu extended his foot and turned one of them over.
The same twisted expression, eyes wide open, face filled with terror. The same pale skin, without a trace of color.
Only this time, these people had died suddenly right under Fang Yu’s nose.
“Whoosh!”
Just then, a silver-glowing blade cut through the air, attacking towards Fang Yu’s position!
