Invincible Kungfu Healer - Chapter 1060

The youth quietly grabbed hold of Black Sorcerer’s hand. A plain smile appeared on his face as though he was an adult holding on to the hand of a child.

Black Sorcerer’s face was covered in cold sweat. His figure trembled slightly. No matter how he struggled, he could not escape the youth’s grasp.

Crack! Crack!

A crisp cracking of bone could be heard. The youth merely held on to Black Sorcerer’s hand and then gradually crushed his bones. The terrifying arm that could punch a hole in a mountain seemed to be as feeble as flour before the youth.

Gasp! Gasp!

Black Sorcerer resisted the pain of the bones in his hand being crushed bit by bit. For a Tide Changing Realm cultivator, pain was not frightening; what was frightening was the deep sense of helplessness. This youth was too terrifying. Right now, Black Sorcerer was deeply experiencing what terror was.

He furiously clenched his teeth and a saber suddenly appeared in his hand. With a furious slash, he did not attack the youth but instead slashed off his own arm. Fresh blood poured out everywhere, but Black Sorcerer was not concerned with his injury. He immediately retreated, fearing this youth as though he was a tiger.

Purple Sorcerer, who was nearby, had eyes filled with deep terror. He no longer had the courage to fight against the youth. The two sorcerers glanced at each other and turned to escape without another word. They did not even dare to leave any insults.

“Don’t let them escape,” the Huai Clan second young mistress screamed. Purple Sorcerer and Black Sorcerer were demons of Muhong City. By keeping them here, it would undoubtedly ease some of the pressure off Yingyun City.

Mo Wen shook his head and watched indifferently as Purple Sorcerer and Black Sorcerer escaped. He naturally had his reasons for not killing them.

The Huai Clan second young mistress saw that Mo Wen had no intention of pursuing them. She immediately did not dare to say anymore. She flew before the crimson light shroud and rescued the few Yingyun City kamikaze warriors. Initially, these kamikaze warriors were about to be consumed by the Crimson Blood Demonic Flag. However, Mo Wen shattered the barrier created by the Crimson Blood Demonic Flag and forcefully ended the process. That was how they managed to survive.

“Second young mistress, are you alright?”

“Second young mistress, we are still alive. Thank goodness.”

…

After being rescued, the kamikaze warriors immediately exclaimed. They had not imagined that in a situation of certain death, they had actually managed to survive.

They frantically looked at Mo Wen with astonished, respectful, and complicated looks in their eyes.

Although they had been trapped, they still managed to witness the scene just now. As Tide Changing Realm cultivators, their deified souls could cover an area of at least 1000 miles in radius.

None of them had ever imagined that the person who appeared, in the end, was actually the person who had inexplicably approached them and followed behind them sneakily. This person was also unbelievably powerful. Even the first young mistress who had stayed behind to guard Yingyun City would most likely not be as strong as him.

“Weren’t you all returning to Yingyun City? Let’s continue on our journey,” Mo Wen said calmly. From the words of Purple Sorcerer and Black Sorcerer, he could tell that even though Yingyun City was on the brink of danger, it had yet to be breached.

With a wave of his hand, a crimson light appeared in a flash and landed in his hands. It was the Crimson Blood Demonic Flag. In their haste to escape, Purple Sorcerer and Black Sorcerer had no time to retrieve it.

As an earth spiritual treasure, the Crimson Blood Demonic Flag was rather rare. Although it was only one rank above an ordinary spiritual treasure, the difference between them was like that of heaven and earth.

“You… who are you exactly?” The Huai Clan second young mistress looked incredulously at Mo Wen. This person was too bizarre, too mysterious. She was not too certain of this person’s goals for following them. Prior to this, they had suspected that he was a member of Muhong City. However, it was now definitely impossible for that to be so. No matter how she looked at it, the mayor of Muhong City would not involve Purple Sorcerer and Black Sorcerer in such an elaborate scheme. Although the two sorcerers were only at the later stage of Tide Changing Realm, they had killed a cultivator with great attainment at the Tide Changing Realm before. Their status in Muhong City was not low.

Moreover, even if they sacrificed Purple Sorcerer and Black Sorcerer, it was impossible for them to also give up the Crimson Blood Demonic Flag. This Demonic Flag was an earth spiritual treasure, the personal treasure of the mayor of Muhong City.

“We will talk about this when we arrive at Yingyun City,” Mo Wen said calmly. He did not know what the situation was like now in Yingyun City. Although the task required him to rescue the city, if the situation was too dire and dangerous, he would not bet his own safety for a task.

“Okay, I will lead you to Yingyun City,” the Huai Clan second young mistress clenched her teeth and said after hesitating for a bit.

Currently, no one from the outside would venture to Yingyun City. When Muhong City and Yingyun City engaged in war, all the cultivators from foreign lands who lived in Yingyun City had already evacuated.

Previously, when this youth had said that he was heading to Yingyun City, the Huai Clan second young mistress felt that it was somewhat strange. However, right now, she did not ask anything.

Of course, they could bring him to Yingyun City. As a friend, they would welcome him. Even if he was an enemy, once in Yingyun City, they would also not fear him.

The Yingyun City kamikaze warriors glanced at each other and silently surrounded the second young mistress. Although this youth seemed to have no ill intentions towards them, their task was to protect the second young mistress until their deaths. They certainly could not be careless.

“Let’s go.”

The group continued on their way. Beams of flowing light shot across the sky, flying towards Yingyun City at high speeds.

Mo Wen still followed casually behind the group. If he carried them as they flew, their speed would be increased by at least ten times. However, right now, he was not anxious. He continued to travel leisurely.

After two hours, the group came to a deserted island. The island was not inhabited and was rather barren. The Vital Qi on it was rather thin and not suitable for cultivating at all. Such islands could be seen everywhere in the Ruyun Territorial Waters. Usually, when cultivators flew over, they would not pay heed to such an island.

“There is a secret Yingyun City stronghold hidden here,” the Huai Clan second young mistress softly said as she glanced at Mo Wen.

She did not mind that Mo Wen knew about this secret stronghold of theirs. In a time like this, such a secret stronghold would clearly only be used once and never used again.

Mo Wen glanced around the barren island. He released his deified soul which instantly covered the entire island, even seeping down underground.

However, he did not find anything. Even with his deified soul, he actually did not notice anything off. As expected, there was more to such a secret stronghold than met the eye. Ordinary Supreme Profundity Realm cultivators would most likely have a hard time finding such a place.

Several of them took the lead and flew into a ravine on the deserted island. There was a secret passageway in the ravine. By activating a hidden mechanism, one could enter the underground passageway. These mechanisms were of the most ancient type. They were simple and reliable. Clearly, in order to remain hidden, the outside of the facilities was not made complicated.

They continued flying down the underground passageway. Soon, they saw a few Yingyun City cultivators that were guarding the secret stronghold. When the cultivators saw the Huai Clan second young mistress, they were surprised.

“Second young mistress, why did you return?” A Primordial Soul Realm cultivator asked in astonishment. Didn’t the second young mistress escape to Yunhong City? Why did she appear here?

“Second young mistress, why didn’t you escape? Why have you returned?” Another person asked anxiously.

The cultivators guarding the secret stronghold did not understand. Why did the second young mistress, who had already escaped this place, return?

In reality, a few days ago, Yingyun City had initiated their final plan. There had been groups of Huai Clan members consecutively retreating through various secret passageways. From the looks of it, Yingyun City would soon fall. However, a portion of the Huai Clan bloodline and inheritance had to be preserved.

On the list of those who would be evacuated, the Huai Clan second young mistress was among them and she was the most important one of them all. The members of the Huai Clan that were evacuated were rather talented youths in the clan. All of their elders had stayed behind to hold off the final storm. Of course, the person who had the most talent and whose future was full of potential in the Huai Clan was naturally the first young mistress.

However, the first young mistress was the mayor of Yingyun City and the leader of the Huai Clan. It was impossible for her to escape. She also could not escape as she had to stay behind and draw all the attention of the members of Muhong City.

“Prepare to activate the teleporting stratagem. I want to return to Yingyun City,” the Huai Clan second young mistress resolutely commanded. She would not become a deserter, and even more so, she would not leave her elder sister behind. Even if Yingyun City was destroyed, she would die together with the city.

Before this, when she escaped to Yunhong City, she had only done so to beg Venerable Master Hui Hong to lend his aid to Yingyun City. However, it was now obvious that her elder sister had already known that Venerable Master Hui Hong would not help them, and getting her to go to Yunhong City to seek reinforcements was just an excuse. In reality, her elder sister had wanted her to use the Sorcerer God Temple’s long-distance teleporting stratagem to escape.

“Second young mistress, I…”

“You cannot return, second young mistress.”

The few guards that stayed behind were in a difficult position. Wouldn’t it be suicidal for the second young mistress to return to Yingyun City now?

As an immortal cultivator city, Yingyun City naturally had its own teleporting stratagems. Although it could not afford to establish a long-distance teleporting stratagem such as the ones in the Sorcerer God Temples and it could not possibly establish a network of teleporting stratagems like Yunhong City, it still had a few teleporting stratagems for its own uses.

“Second young mistress, you have no means to return. Two hours ago, the first young mistress ordered that all the teleporting stratagems connected to the outside must be destroyed. Right now, the members in Yingyun City cannot be teleported out and people from the outside cannot be teleported into Yingyun City,” the leading cultivator said.

Two hours ago, all those who were supposed to be evacuated had passed through the various passageways. The first young mistress, in order to unite their forces, decided to burn all their bridges and ordered that all the teleporting stratagems be destroyed. All of the escape routes out of Yingyun City had been severed. The remaining forces could only stand their ground and put up a fight.

“Such a ruthless woman,” Mo Wen said to himself. The list of people who would be evacuated would have certainly caused complaints and dissatisfaction among those who remained to guard Yingyun City. After all, even an ant struggled to survive; who was not afraid to die? If the teleporting stratagems were still around, there would most likely be dissent among the members of Yingyun City. Now that the teleporting stratagems were destroyed, everyone had nowhere to fall back to.

“How is this possible?”

The expression of the Huai Clan second young mistress changed drastically. Without another word, she entered an underground palace hall. However, she soon returned with a despondent look. As expected, the teleporting stratagem inside had been destroyed.

“Let’s go. We will head over to have a look at the other secret strongholds,” the Huai Clan second young mistress clenched her teeth as she turned to leave. She had to return to Yingyun City.

“Second young mistress, it is meaningless to do so. All the teleporting stratagems have already been destroyed. You should understand the first young mistress’ good intentions. Escape immediately. Escape as far as you can. In the future, if you have the chance, you might still be able to avenge us,” a cultivator that had stayed behind to guard the place said with a sigh.

For them to remain here was no different from awaiting death. However, everyone had not left their post and did not have any intention of fleeing. Those who were sent to this type of secret stronghold were the most loyal and dependable members of Yingyun City from the beginning.

The Huai Clan second young mistress turned and left expressionlessly. Next, they headed toward a few other Yingyun City secret strongholds. Without exception, all the teleporting stratagems inside were destroyed.

“How can this be? Elder sister, why did you do this?” The Huai Clan second young mistress had a pale face. As expected, when her elder sister sent her off, her elder sister was prepared to never see her again.

Currently, all of the teleporting stratagems were destroyed. How would they return to Yingyun City? Yingyun City was currently being besieged by the armies of Muhong City. If they attempted to return to the city from the front gate, they would be killed by the Muhong City cultivators before they even reached the front gate.

The second young mistress’ kamikaze warriors fell silent. They then advised her and said, “Second young mistress, let’s go. There is already no meaning in you returning now. You will still have hope by living. Maybe one day, you will even avenge the first young mistress.”

“Second young mistress, first young mistress paid such a high price just to keep you alive. Don’t let her efforts go to waste.”

“That’s right. Second young mistress, it is not that we are afraid of dying. After we deliver you to a safe place, we will immediately end our own lives to repay our debt of gratitude to Yingyun City for taking us in. However, you cannot die.”

The kamikaze warriors clearly did not wish for the second young mistress to return.

The Huai Clan second young mistress bit her lip. Two streaks of tears rolled down her cheeks. However, she did not move a single step and stood there on her spot for a long while.

“Since there are no teleporting stratagems, then we can only enter through the front,” Mo Wen, who had not said anything all this while, suddenly said calmly. Regardless of how other people thought, he had to head over to Yingyun City to take a look.
