Dakon turned around to see who had just arrived, and his face showed a hint of surprise. It was a man in black robes. His entire head was covered, but Dakon could still feel his familiar ki, so he said " Teacher Shen, what are you doing here? "
Teacher Shen created a yellow aura around the two of them, blocking their conversation from Ying Jie the moment he arrived, then he said with surprise " You can recognize me so fast? It's my disguise, so useless or you really are amazing, kid? "
Dakon just nods slightly, then he falls on his right knee, making a pained expression, his green aura disappeared and his right eye returned to his usual color, Teacher Shen looks at him in surprise and confusion and when he was about to approach him but Dakon raised his left hand signaling him to stop as he says with a panting voice " Don't.. I'm ok "
Teacher Shen nods slightly as Dakon stands. His complexion was pale and sick, making Teacher Shen very suspicious ' Is he sick or something? He doesn't look good at all ' he thought with a serious expression
Dakon noticed his expression and interrupted his thoughts by saying " Again, what brings you here, Teacher Shen? "
Teacher Shen, putting aside his thoughts, says with a smile " I came here to help you, but it seems you got even stronger. I'm out of words, your talent is beyond monstrous "
Dakon couldn't even respond when he turned to see to his right with a serious expression. Teacher Shen turns to his left as he says " Someone is coming, it must be the Matriarch of the Lan clan, she is a Half-Step Spiritual Lady, neither of us has the strength to even scratch her "
Dakon made a serious expression as he clenched his fists. Then, Teacher Shen turned to see him and said " It seems I can accomplish what I came here to do, leave, kid, I can distract that woman long enough to give you a chance "
Dakon looks at him in confusion as he says " You don't have to do this, Teacher Shen. This is my problem, I will be the one who takes care of her, you can't afford to get in trouble with her clan "
Teacher Shen shook his head with a slight smile, saying " It's not a problem, she won't be able to recognize me, after all, someone like me isn't anything to her. Besides, I have my means to escape; after all, I promised Lang Lin that I would help you "
Dakon frowns slightly, thinking about Lang Lin. Then, Teacher Shen says " You don't have to think about that right now, you need to leave, just promise me that you will go to the Heavenly Feathers Sect to clarify everything, even if that breaks her heart "
Dakon nods slightly, then he turns around and says " I will, Teacher Shen " he turns to see the place where Ying Jie was still hiding, and finally he leaves, ignoring her. There will be a time when he sees her again, that's for sure
Teacher Shen sees Dakon departing figure with a slight smile then the he turns at his left making a serious expression as he waits for the incoming Lan Zexi and he didn't have to wait for too long because the next minute *ZOOM* A woman arrived in a flash her body was surrounded by a pale blue aura as her expression looked full of concern and anger
Lan Zexi had already seen Old Man Li's corpse on her way here, and her worry and anger just increased even more. She searches for her daughter and Dakon, but she only sees a hooded man standing near a huge crater looking in her direction
Her anger surged even more, and without knowing who he was, she yells " Where is my daughter?! "
Teacher Shen, changing his voice, looks at her with a serious expression as he says " I don't know what you're talking about, woman, but I can't let you go farther than this "
*BOOM* Lan Zexi's aura surged like a violent hurricane, the wind forces Teacher Shen to narrow his eyes slightly, then Lan Zexi looks at him coldly, and with a low but menacing voice, she says " I will not ask again "
Suddenly, Ying Jie ran from her hideout, looking at Lan Zexi with a tear-jerking expression " She is dead! Sister Xue is dead! Chen Kai killed her! He didn't even leave her body behind!! "
Lan Zexi looks at her with wide eyes, then she begins to tear up and " AAHHH!! " Her scream tore through the land as she bowed her head, fingers clawing into her hair, grief and madness colliding inside her chest
Ying Jie covers her mouth again as she cries, then Lan Zexi turns to see her with an angered expression, but she couldn't stop crying, then she says, " Where is that bastard?! "
Ying Jie pointed, trembling " That way. He ran that way "
Lan Zexi, without thinking twice, ran where Ying Jie pointed in a flash, but *PAM* Her body jerked violently as a kick slammed into her abdomen, forcing her back several steps, the ground cracking beneath her feet
Lan Zexi looks at Teacher Shen with fury and says " You dare block me?! " Her aura thickened around her arms, coiling like living beasts " Then die! " She swung her left arm
From it erupted a colossal green serpent of energy, jaws gaping wide, four fangs gleaming with killing intent
Teacher Shen's eyes widened ' Twin Celestial Snakes! She's not holding back! ' He twisted aside, but he was too slow " Ugh! "
The serpent's aura raked across his chest, shredding cloth and flesh alike. Blood sprayed as he stumbled
Teacher Shen didn't have the time to recover because a second snake approached ' Sh*t! ' He jumps backwards and swings his arms covered with black energy towards the incoming green snake
The black aura covers the green snake's half body, and *BOOM* The snake blows up with a brutal force that even injured Teacher Shen's arms and sent him flying backwards, rolling on the ground until *PUM* He crashed into a nearby rock, blowing it into pieces
Teacher Shen lays still in the ground seriously injured with both arms burned and broken after he used them for protection against the explosion, the blood in his chest keeps coming out in great quantities but still he smiled slightly as he thinks ' Well she is far stronger than I expected, I didn't last even a minute, sorry kid, I couldn't do anything else ' he raised his head and saw that Lan Zexi was charging her attack once again then he smiled and thought ' It seems that this is my end '
Lan Zexi swings both of her arms at Teacher Shen's direction, making a cold expression as she says " Die "
Two green energy snakes traveled towards Teacher Shen as they aggressively opened their mouths. Teacher Shen just smiled slightly at the incoming attack, then he closed his eyes in resignation
But after a couple of seconds, the attack didn't come out, so he raised his head and saw the face of a beautiful young lady looking at him in surprise ' Wait a minute, isn't she from the Luhe Palace? '
The young lady was none other than He An. She turned behind her and says " Grandmaster, he is still alive "
' Grandmaster? ' Teacher Shen thought, then he looked in the direction where He An was looking, and his eyes opened wide with surprise ' The Supreme Elder of the Luhe Palace! Why is she here?! ' Teacher Shen thought with doubt, and finally he lost consciousness
