Chapter 378 These Killing Blades of the Zerg
Ji Mei looked at Su Yang with suspicion.
"Fellow Daoist Su Nan, what do you think? Could it be that Feng Chen and the others were really killed by that Vermilion Bird?"
Su Yang straightened her expression, and a slight smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
"Yes, they failed in their own endeavors. They tried to capture the Vermilion Bird but were instead killed by it. It has nothing to do with us."
Upon hearing this, Ji Mei narrowed her eyes slightly.
Feng Chen and his group had clearly made ample preparations for this Vermilion Bird, so they wouldn't be caught off guard and capsize.
Therefore, Ji Mei really didn't believe that their group of dozens of people would be killed by the newly reborn Vermilion Bird.
She still felt in her heart that Feng Chen and the others' deaths were related to the three people in front of her!
Ji Mei raised an eyebrow. "I don't believe it!"
"I saw that the attack that Fellow Daoist Su Nan just launched contained divine fire such as the Southern Bright Fire!"
"That Vermilion Bird, you captured it, didn't you, Fellow Daoist Su Nan?"
Before the ancient ruins of the immortal volcano were even revealed, the Southern Ming Fire had already appeared before them.
Although Ji Mei was not a different kind of fire, the Nanming Li Fire had left a deep impression on her.
The attack Su Nan launched when he killed Yao Meier just now definitely contained the aura of Nanming Li Huo!
After Ji Mei finished speaking, she laughed triumphantly.
Feng Chen, Feng Miao, and Feng Yan are fellow disciples from the same school.
Their master was a Void Refinement Venerable of the Demon Flame Sect.
It is said that the Venerable Master of Refining Emptiness is extremely protective of his own.
Ji Mei really didn't want to share the blame with Su Yang and the other two for no reason.
Although they had the Vermilion Bird as a cover, Feng Chen and the others' master would not let it go so easily and would not readily believe that they were killed by the Vermilion Bird.
In the end, suspicion fell on the four of them.
After all, among these people, only the four of them had the potential to wipe out Feng Chen and his group.
Moreover, the four of them left the Vermilion Bird Palace together right under the noses of everyone else.
Ji Mei was certain that Feng Chen and the others' deaths were related to Su Yang and the other two. Although she liked Su Yang, she didn't want to be blamed for this.
As the senior disciple of the Hehuan Sect, she holds a pivotal position within the sect, and the Demon Flame Sect dares not touch her.
But if the Demon Flame Sect investigates, it will be troublesome.
Then, Ji Mei reached out her hand to Su Yang and the other two.
"If you want me to take the blame, you should at least give me some of the ill-gotten gains!"
Su Yang chuckled lightly, "As expected, I couldn't fool Fellow Daoist Ji Mei."
Immediately afterwards, Su Yang took out a storage ring.
"Let's just consider these things as... 'stolen money'."
Ji Mei accepted the storage ring with satisfaction and chuckled.
"Hehe, Feng Chen himself is not strong enough. He led a group of people to find that Vermilion Bird in Nirvana and went to their deaths. There is nothing we can do about it."
"In the end, the Vermilion Bird still belongs to the lineage of the Demon God. Before it was reborn, its strength was not something that people like Feng Chen could easily challenge."
Seeing that Ji Mei was so cooperative, Xiao Yu and Shen Nian'an couldn't help but chuckle.
However, in the next moment, Su Yang seemed to suddenly realize something, and she suddenly looked at someone in the crowd.
Su Yang's sharp gaze locked onto the person, who also noticed Su Yang's gaze, his eyes darkened, and he immediately tried to leave the place quickly.
Without saying a word, Su Yang conjured two gleaming silver scimitars in mid-air and slashed at the man with lightning speed.
The blades of the two curved swords were mixed with chaotic spiritual energy, and their sword aura was sharp and fierce.
The man sensed the dangerous aura emanating from the two silver scimitars, and his mind went into turmoil.
He stopped trying to hide it and immediately took off running to escape.
Su Yang's eyes were mocking, and she let out a cold laugh.
"Trying to escape? How could I let you get away so easily?!"
Su Yang made hand seals, and a binding formation was set up by her at some point. Several pillars of light shot into the sky, trapping the person who wanted to escape.
The two relentlessly pursuing silver scimitars behind the man were also closing in.
"Fellow Daoist, why did you attack me without warning?!"
"Is it because I questioned your ability to break through the restrictions outside the palace before?"
The person being chased by Su Yang was none other than Feng Yun!
When Feng Yun realized he was trapped by the formation and that he couldn't see its flaws at first glance, he panicked for a moment. Then, he could only angrily blame Su Yang so that others could help him out.
The others looked at Su Yang with some dissatisfaction upon seeing this scene.
"Fellow Daoist, isn't what you're doing a bit unfair?"
"Fellow Daoist Feng Yun is a highly respected senior, a third-tier array master. Do you really hold a grudge just because Fellow Daoist Feng Yun criticized you a few times before?"
"Yeah yeah!"
"Fellow Daoist, aren't you being a bit too presumptuous?"
Shen Nian'an knew that Su Yang wouldn't attack Feng Yun without reason.
She retorted, "Hmph! Master... Sister Su must have had other reasons for attacking this shameless old man! And this old man might not be a good person either."
"You...you're just making excuses!" Feng Yun pointed angrily at Shen Nian'an, her murderous intent towards her growing even stronger!
Su Yang remained unmoved by the accusations from the crowd.
Two silver scimitars instantly attacked Feng Yun, who was trapped within the formation.
Feng Yun looked at the two silver curved blades that were gradually slashing towards him, especially the chaotic spiritual energy on them.
He had a premonition that if he were to be touched by the spiritual energy on that blade, he would be crippled even if he didn't die!
But he had no choice but to use all his means to withstand Su Yang's attack.
boom!
Two silver scimitars arrived in an instant.
The chaotic spiritual energy contained within the blade was constantly dissipating and eroding Feng Yun's body.
Then everyone witnessed a horrifying scene.
All that could be seen was Feng Yun's withered old skin being eroded by the chaotic spiritual energy, and it was constantly disappearing.
Beneath Feng Yun's aged skin lay an insect shell.
Upon seeing this, the pupils of the others immediately contracted.
"What...what is this thing?!"
"Isn't Feng Yun human? How come there's something so strange under his skin?!"
Ji Mei rolled her eyes at the bewildered crowd and snorted coldly.
"A bunch of idiots, can't you see? Feng Yun has been parasitized by the Zerg!"
As soon as Ji Mei finished speaking, they erupted in cheers.
"Huh?! It's the Zerg?!"
"I've never seen the true face of the Zerg before, and they're so terrifying..."
"That's right, this is indeed a Zerg! A while ago, when I was training outside, I discovered that the disciples of the Demon Flame Sect were chasing a Zerg. Although the appearance was different, this Feng Yun had the same aura as that Zerg!"
"It is because of the Zerg that our Canglan Realm has fallen to this state, with its heavens and earth sealed off from the outside world, and its ascension passages cut off!"
"Those damned Zerg! They deserve to die!"
