Chapter 137: Chu Ling’s True Motive, the Arrival of the Bizarre Immortal Race!

【Right afterward, you told Xuanyuan Tianji about the small incident that had just taken place at Yue Liuli’s residence. 】

【After hearing it, Xuanyuan Tianji’s brows drew tightly together.】

【Xuanyuan Tianji told you that it would be best to leave this place as soon as possible.】

【After thinking it over for a moment, you agreed with Xuanyuan Tianji. You decided to leave Chu Ling’s tribe immediately.】

【Just as you and Xuanyuan Tianji stepped out of the wooden hut, you saw Chu Ling coming to find you.】

【You and Xuanyuan Tianji exchanged a glance, unable to understand why he had suddenly come looking for you.】

【“What are the two of you planning to do?”】

【Chu Ling looked at you with a beaming smile.】

【Seeing the smile on Chu Ling’s face, you could not shake the feeling that he meant no good.】

【You told Chu Ling that since you had only just arrived in the Canglan Realm, it would be improper to trouble him further, and that you planned to leave his tribe.】

【The moment Chu Ling heard that you were leaving, a vicious glint flashed through his eyes.】

【“Why are the two of you leaving so soon?”】

【“You’ve only just arrived in the Canglan Realm, and you’re still unfamiliar with it. Why not stay a while longer? Once you understand the different regions of the Canglan Realm, it won’t be too late to leave then.”】

【Seeing how insistently Chu Ling tried to keep you, your resolve to leave only grew stronger.】

【“Clan Chief Chu, there’s no need to trouble yourselves on our behalf.”】

【You rejected Chu Ling’s attempt to keep you once again.】

【Seeing that you were determined to go, Chu Ling asked you to stay for one meal before leaving.】

【“Brother Su, since you truly insist on leaving, then please, you must at least stay for a meal before you go. I ask only that you do not refuse this kindness of mine!”】

【Since he had put it that way, both you and Xuanyuan Tianji could only agree to stay for this one meal.】

【Although the two of you had already reached the point where you could abstain from food, things like spirit meat and spirit grain were still beneficial to cultivation.】

【Following Chu Ling, you arrived at a large hall.】

【What you did not expect was that Chu Ling had already prepared the banquet in advance.】

【You and Xuanyuan Tianji took your seats and began eating and drinking together with Chu Ling.】

【Not long afterward, you saw Yue Liuli rush in with a face full of urgency.】

【“Don’t eat it! Run!”】

【“If you don’t run now, it’ll be too late!”】

【When you saw Yue Liuli shouting at you to flee, a bad feeling instantly rose in your heart.】

【You no longer cared about the fine wine and food in your hands. Grabbing Xuanyuan Tianji, you immediately retreated away from Chu Ling.】

【Then you looked at Chu Ling with icy eyes.】

【“What exactly are you trying to do?”】

【“Don’t ask—just run! If you don’t run now, it’ll be too late!”】

【“Men, High Priestess Yue is ill. Take her away and let her rest.”】

【At that moment, you heard Yue Liuli still anxiously urging you to leave.】

【Seeing this, you no longer bothered about Chu Ling and turned to leave at once, just as Yue Liuli had told you.】

【But the moment you turned around, you saw Chu Ling appear in front of you, blocking your path.】

【“Where do you think the two of you are going?”】

【After arranging for Yue Liuli to be taken away, Chu Ling turned to look at you again.】

【“Could it be that the delicacies I prepared weren’t to your liking?”】

【“Hmph!”】

【You let out a cold snort and had no intention of continuing to waste words with Chu Ling. You still did not know what exactly he was plotting.】

【You used the Great Void Technique, preparing to leave Chu Ling’s tribe directly.】

【In the next instant, you saw the void rift formed by the Great Void Technique collapse the moment it appeared before you.】

【At the same time, your face suddenly turned pale and weak.】

【“You poisoned us?”】

【You looked at Chu Ling. You had not expected him to have poisoned you without your noticing.】

【While eating just now, you had deliberately been on guard. Only after confirming that there was no poison in the wine and dishes had you eaten at ease.】

【Seeing the poison take effect, Chu Ling’s face no longer carried that smiling expression. Instead, he looked at you with a vicious sneer.】

【Chu Ling told you that his poison had been administered separately—one part in the wine, and the other in the spirit meat.】

【He told you that the toxin would only form if both were consumed together. Eating just one of them would not poison you.】

【You could feel the spiritual qi inside your body disintegrating, leaving you completely unable to use the Great Void Technique to escape.】

【“What exactly do you want?”】

【At this point, Chu Ling no longer bothered to hide his intentions and directly told you his true objective.】

【“I want to hand you over to the Bizarre Immortal Race in exchange for a chance to break through to the Mahayana Realm!”】

【“Do you know that the Blood Qi in your body is far too rich? This kind of Blood Qi is exactly the kind of blood prey the Bizarre Immortal Race likes best!”】

【“And as long as I break through to Mahayana, my lifespan will greatly increase!”】

【“Don’t blame me! If you must blame someone, blame yourselves for appearing where you never should have. I truly admire the fact that you managed to come out of the Dead Land.”】

【After hearing Chu Ling’s true purpose, you stopped playing along with him and let the corners of your lips lift slightly.】

【“So this is your real objective?”】

【“I thought it would be something serious. That’s all?”】

【Seeing the mocking look on your face, Chu Ling stared at you in confusion.】

【“What kind of expression is that? Don’t tell me you think the two of you can still escape?”】

【You ignored Chu Ling and merely gave him a cold laugh, the mockery on your face growing even stronger.】

【“Don’t tell me you think you can escape just by relying on the woman beside you?”】

【“Even if she wasn’t poisoned, do you really think someone at her cultivation level could kill me?”】

【Chu Ling looked at you, utterly unable to understand why you were acting like this.】

【“Do you think I don’t have a trump card?”】

【The moment those words fell, you released your External Incarnation.】

【Holding the Taixu Immortal Sword, your External Incarnation appeared directly between you and Chu Ling.】

【“Th-This... how is this possible?”】

【“Who is he?”】

【When Chu Ling saw the External Incarnation suddenly appear, his eyes filled with terror.】

【He could not understand how another person at Great Perfection Integration Realm, equal to himself, had appeared so suddenly.】

【“Since you’re so eager to die, then I’ll grant your wish!”】

【In the next instant, your External Incarnation wielded the Taixu Sword and directly unleashed the Divine Power—Heavenslaying—at Chu Ling.】

【Although you had not yet fully mastered Heavenslaying, even so, it was not something Chu Ling, who was only at the same realm, could possibly withstand.】

【“No!!!”】

【“Immortal, save me!!!”】

【BANG!】

【Amid his despairing scream, Chu Ling was cut apart by your External Incarnation’s sword and exploded into a rain of blood. 】

【Not far away, when the two guards escorting Yue Liuli away saw Chu Ling die, they immediately dropped Yue Liuli and fled in panic.】

【Seeing this, Yue Liuli hurried over to your side, her expression complicated as she looked at you. 】

【She had only wanted you to leave the tribe as quickly as possible. Yue Liuli had never expected that you would directly kill Chu Ling.】

【“Run, quickly!”】

【Looking at the dispirited Yue Liuli, you said nothing more. You had your External Incarnation take the three of you and leave. 】

【“Trying to run? Too late!”】
