Creation of the Universe

Chapter 189 Overestimating one’s own capabilities

Zhu Xiuyuan's body movements were not considered fast, and even during his heyday, he was not known for this.

The reason why he seems to be far behind in this aspect is entirely because of the crushing realm. With Shen Zhan's current cultivation level, it is indeed too difficult to catch up.

However, when Zhu Xiuyuan thought he had created enough distance and had slowed down to his normal pace, he heard a sound coming from behind, getting closer and closer.

He paused for a moment, then said suddenly, "How could I have almost forgotten that there is still trouble with you.

I can ignore all the others, especially that bull-like Meng Zhong. He is still far from catching up with my speed. But you are different. This ability is really enviable.

No, it should be said that this is your racial talent."

Before Zhu Xiuyuan finished speaking, the person who came was already close to him.

"I can't mess up the task that Big Brother has assigned to me."

The person standing in front of Zhu Xiuyuan was Zhao Tiange. He and Meng Zhong set out almost at the same time, but now he had left the former far behind.

Zhu Xiuyuan's face quickly returned to its current calmness from the initial shock. After hundreds of years, he did not expect that he would be able to witness such a miracle.

Zhao Tiange was seen standing there leisurely. Although he came very quickly, there was no sign on his surface that he had just been chasing at full speed. Even his breathing was eerily calm, which was unbelievable.

"Humph, Shen Zhan has truly raised a whole bunch of monsters. Back then, he had countless monsters like you under his command. You can't blame the court for taking action against him. If they don't get rid of him, they're just raising a tiger to cause trouble!"

Zhu Xiuyuan sneered unhappily.

Zhao Tiange smiled easily, "Let's not waste any more time talking nonsense. We are in urgent need of the Ten Thousand Years Longevity Root. Considering that you and my elder brother were colleagues back then, can't you do us a favor?

If you can help us save Hu Meng, you will surely reap great rewards in the future. Why not do it?"

Zhu Xiuyuan sneered, "It's not surprising that you caught up with me, but haven't you ever thought that if you appear in front of me alone, can you stop me?

If I am not mistaken in my dim eyes, you are only at the Martial Sect level now, so don't overestimate your abilities."

"I will stop you whether I can or cannot. I was not tolerated by my own people. If it weren't for my big brother's protection, I would have been dead long ago. Even if it costs me my life, I will keep you here!"

Zhao Tiange's eyes were blazing, and he looked like he was determined to fight to the death. Seeing this, Zhu Xiuyuan could only sigh helplessly.

"You bunch of lunatics are coming back one after another. If this continues, the Tiande Dynasty will be in big trouble."

Before he finished speaking, Zhu Xiuyuan suddenly dodged, leaving behind a shadow.

Zhao Tiange was not in a hurry. A black lotus mark on his forehead slowly blossomed, and in an instant he turned into a wolf with a scarlet bloody mouth. His whole body was black and he looked majestic.

In the blink of an eye, the evil wolf disappeared without a trace, as if it had never existed at all.

......

"Don't worry, we're so far away from Yingtian City, how could there be any pursuers?"

A young man in black clothes stood in front of a big rock, his eyes shining as he looked straight ahead at a place not far away.

"But maybe if I stay in Yingtian City, I might be able to see my brother."

Shen Yunli, whose voice was as soft as willow catkins, was hesitating all the way, wondering whether her decision to escape was the right one.

After all, when she left the Jinning Palace, her father repeatedly told her to fight for Jinning's prestige, but she deserted and she didn't know how to explain it after returning.

And maybe his brother Shen Zhan would rush to Yingtian to meet him. The more Shen Yunli thought about it, the more she felt that her original decision was a bit too impulsive.

"Shen Zhan has caused so much trouble and is now in a difficult situation. If he goes to Yingtian City, he will attract those who want to kill him. Since he cares about you so much, he definitely doesn't want you to be in danger.

Therefore, it is absolutely the right choice for us to take advantage of the chaos and flee that troubled place!"

The young man in black was Han Fei, who had promised Shen Zhan that he would protect Shen Yunli for a period of time.

Thanks to the Xuan Yang Zheng Qi Jue given by Shen Zhan, Han Fei’s cultivation has now been restored and is gradually improving, with the hope of surpassing his former self.

"Okay, don't think too much. There's a dilapidated house not far ahead. Let's go there and take shelter for a while. It's going to rain soon."

So the two of them rushed to the house which had almost become a ruin. Although it looked dilapidated, it was at least a place to shelter from the wind and rain. Han Fei was very satisfied with it.

"I think we should stay here tonight and continue our journey tomorrow morning."

As he spoke, he gave a warning, "I'm going to go out and gather some dry firewood. You stay here and set up the pot. We've been traveling for so many days, it's time to sit down and have a good meal."

After finishing speaking, Han Fei took out a small pot from his bag, along with two pheasants he had hunted on the way. This would be their meal for tonight.

Shen Yunli responded and started to get busy. Although she had not known Han Fei for a long time, because it was her brother Shen Zhan who asked Han Fei to protect her, Shen Yunli also regarded Han Fei as someone she could rely on.

There are really not many people like this for her.

Just as she put the pot up, Shen Yunli suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a dark figure lying in the corner of the room.

The other person was motionless and his breathing was very weak. No wonder Shen Yunli and Han Fei didn't notice this person's existence when they first came in.

"Are you ok?"

Shen Yunli couldn't just sit there and watch. She approached cautiously, wanting to find out what was going on with this person. If the other person needed help, she couldn't just stand by and watch him die.

When she got closer, she saw that it was an old man with disheveled hair and a Taoist bun on the back of his head. The majority of his hair was divided into several strands, each of which was scattered in a messy manner.

"Senior, what's wrong with you? Are you poisoned?"

Shen Yunli asked this because she saw that the man's face turned purple.

However, the old man curled up in the corner like a cold dead dog. He seemed to be completely unable to hear Shen Yunli's words. Only the slow rise and fall of his chest proved that he was not dead.

At least he was alive for now.

The more Shen Yunli thought about it, the more strange it seemed to her. She really wanted to help this person, but she didn't know how.

So she decided to wait for Han Fei to come back and then discuss it with him. Just at this moment, heavy rain suddenly started outside the house.
