Chapter 875: A Different Jiang Wuhen
In this moment, Jiang Wuhen seemed different and unfamiliar to the others. Facing his unexpectedly firm stance, Su Xiu’er nodded her head subconsciously.
“Alright, just be careful,” Su Xiu’er said softly. Though she was still worried, she decided to send the things back and bring the others to help him as soon as possible. The two exchanged glances briefly, then Su Xiu’er and the other sect disciples ran off towards the sect.
Although Wei Zhixuan looked down on the Su family, he did not dare to underestimate the Golden Pill Sect’s mechanisms and arrays. Many people had tried claiming the Golden Pill Sect’s site, but not a single one was successful. From this, the power and strength of those mechanisms and arrays was obvious.
Wei Zhixuan also knew that he was going overboard wanting to snatch the Golden Pill Sect’s crystal mine, and that the Su family would definitely not agree. If the time came when the Su family activated those fearsome mechanisms and arrays, he might not be able to escape.
Thus, Wei Zhixuan’s plan as soon as he reached the Golden Pill Sect was to follow Jiang Wuhen and the rest into the sect, then threaten the Su family into submission. Since the Su family had allowed them to bring so many crystals to the auction, there was definitely a lot more in the sect. As long as he could control those few people in the sect, wouldn’t the Su family obediently give him a share of the crystals?
Wei Zhixuan was proud of his plan, but when they reached the Golden Pill Sect, he saw Jiang Wuhen’s group split up and go in separate directions. The others took the auction items and rushed back towards the sect, while Jiang Wuhen stayed back alone.
“Have I been discovered?” Wei Zhixuan was shocked. He had been very careful along the way, and should not have been discovered so easily.
Wei Zhixuan had initially wanted to capture Su Xiu’er and the others to be used as hostages, but seeing them rushing off towards the sect, he didn’t think twice and chased after them.
Jiang Wuhen was already prepared. As soon as Su Xiu’er left, he turned around and saw Wei Zhixuan and a few others. His instincts had been right all along—someone had indeed been following them. Without hesitating, Jiang Wuhen drew out his sword and swung it in Wei Zhixuan’s direction.
Jiang Wuhen’s innate talent was actually quite good, but he had never had the heart for martial arts, and only liked his odd hobbies, so he had always been made fun of. However, as a legitimate descendant of a sect, he had been cultivating since young and had a solid foundation. He had also reached the realm of Great Fulfilment a long time ago, and with the help of the White Jade Crystal Heart gifted by Ling Chuxi, he had broken through the bottleneck and had now reached the pinnacle stage of the realm of Great Fulfilment. Just a little more and he could enter the realm of True Essence.
Jiang Wuhen’s sword made a thunderous sound and swept across the ground with a chilling gleam, radiating a majestic light that inspired awe.
“Great Fulfilment Pinnacle stage!” Su Xiu’er turned around and was taken aback when she saw Jiang Wuhen’s move. When did this guy get such strong cultivation?! He was at the pinnacle of the Great Fulfilment stage, which was much stronger than her cultivation!
Recalling their previous interactions, she remembered how she had provoked and angered Jiang Wuhen, and he had just accepted everything obediently. In truth, he had actually been pretending to be weak and timid, hiding his strength the whole time! Su Xiu’er’s heart pounded anxiously, and her mind was racing.
Wei Zhixuan had not paid attention to the descendants of the Su family at first, but after witnessing this move, he realized that the kid actually had the cultivation of the Great Fulfilment Pinnacle Stage. He almost got pierced by Jiang Wuhen’s sword, and quickly pulled out his own sword to defend himself. Jiang Wuhen was forced into taking a few steps back.
Seeing Wei Zhixuan’s cultivation, Su Xiu’er knew that they wouldn’t be much help even if they stayed. They needed to get help as soon as possible, so they picked up their pace and disappeared into the mechanisms and arrays of the Golden Pill Sect.
