Su Xi walked to the location specified by True Person Tiangang and began to observe her surroundings carefully. After a long while, she still couldn't figure out what True Person Tiangang wanted her to do.
"Ancestor, there's nothing here," Su Xi turned back to look at True Person Tiangang, suspecting that he was playing a prank on her, having fun at her expense in broad daylight.
True Person Tiangang nodded thoughtfully and said, "If no one is here, then I will bring someone over for you."
"Bring someone over?" Su Xi looked at True Person Tiangang in confusion, not understanding what he meant.
Just like that, where would the Ancestor grab someone from?
However, the next moment, she saw a man appear before her. The man had an ordinary appearance, and he seemed familiar, as if she had seen him somewhere before.
Wu De looked at Su Xi before him and then at his unfamiliar surroundings, countless black lines appearing on his forehead.
(๑•̌.•̑๑)ˀ̣ˀ̣
He was clearly monitoring Penglai Mountain from below, so how did he suddenly end up here?
"Who are you?" Su Xi knew that True Person Tiangang would not fool her, and that Wu De before her was definitely suspicious.
Knowing that others could not see True Person Tiangang, Su Xi could only ask for clarification herself.
Wu De's face revealed a hint of a smile as he spoke, "It seems you're truly living a carefree life, having killed my good disciple and yet acting as if nothing happened?"
Ever since Su Xi was rescued by Lin Qing last time, he had been contemplating an opportunity for revenge. To run into Su Xi today so coincidentally, he did not want to miss the chance.
Hearing Wu De's words, Su Xi instantly realized who he was. Although she had animosity with Wu De, he looked too ordinary, so her impression of him was not very deep.
"What are you doing here?" Although she knew Wu De held a grudge against her, she didn't believe he had come here simply for revenge.
Although Penglai Mountain had declined, it was not a place that anyone could bully.
Facing Su Xi's question, Wu De smiled and said indifferently, "I'm not sure what happened. I just walked to the outskirts of Penglai Mountain, and I was suddenly teleported here."
Wu De knew that many mountain protection formations had teleportation functions, so he wanted to take advantage of the chaos. As long as he didn't tell the truth, no one would know what he had actually done.
Even if Su Xi knew he was lying, she would be powerless against him.
Normally, anyone hearing Wu De's words might have felt helpless.
Unfortunately, he was now facing Su Xi, who was from Penglai Mountain and not an ordinary person.
Facing someone personally teleported by True Person Tiangang, Su Xi naturally wouldn't believe he was innocent. After so many days of interaction, she had long understood that True Person Tiangang was definitely not a person to act without reason.
True Person Tiangang must have had his reasons for doing this.
Wu De looked at the mocking expression on Su Xi's face, frowned, and tried to use moral pressure to make Su Xi yield, "Don't you believe me? We are fellow disciples." httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
Hearing the glib talk from Wu De, Su Xi nodded seriously and said with certainty, "That's right, I don't believe what you're saying."
"But even if you don't believe me, what do you want to do?" Wu De was not nervous, and his tone carried a hint of disdain.
He had spent so much time talking nonsense with Su Xi, not because he truly wanted Su Xi to believe he was innocent, but merely to buy himself enough time to observe the movements around him.
Based on his observations over time, he had long understood that besides Su Xi and Lin Qing, there were no other people in Penglai Mountain. Even if there were some newly admitted disciples, they posed no threat to him.
Lin Qing was gone, and only Su Xi was cultivating on the mountain.
Su Xi felt the increasingly undisguised killing intent emanating from Wu De, and naturally understood what he intended to do. However, she wasn't nervous at all.
With True Person Tiangang by her side, she didn't believe she would still be in trouble.
"You want to kill me?" Su Xi didn't give Wu De a chance to play coy and directly exposed his final pretense.
When Wu De saw his disguise exposed, he was not nervous at all.
Penglai Mountain had no Lin Qing, and not a single person capable of fighting. With his cultivation, he was more than capable of wreaking havoc in Penglai Mountain.
"Aren't you afraid?" Wu De looked at Su Xi, who could still manage a smile, and asked in return, puzzled.
He couldn't believe that anyone would not fear death.
Hearing Wu De's question, Su Xi smiled gently and replied, "It's not that I'm not afraid of death, it's just that I'm not afraid of dead people."
Upon hearing this, Wu De's expression froze, and he instantly realized that Su Xi intended to kill him.
Understanding what Su Xi meant, Wu De couldn't help but laugh.
It seemed Su Xi had become arrogant after killing Huan Jie. Little did she know that Huan Jie, a Golden Core stage cultivator achieved through rapid advancement, was merely a paper tiger, easily pierced.
If he had made a move, Huan Jie wouldn't have lasted three seconds. Let alone Su Xi wasting so much time and giving him the opportunity to cast his spells.
"Wood Clone Jutsu!"
Wu De shouted, and his body began to blur. Then, his entire being twisted like ribbons, and in an instant, he transformed into five identical individuals.
The five people not only looked the same but also spoke and expressed themselves identically.
The five Wu Des looked at Su Xi and said coldly in unison, "Die."
With that, each Wu De drew the steel saber in his hand and slashed towards Su Xi.
Each of their steel sabers emitted a sharp blade energy, sealing all of Su Xi's escape routes and leaving her no room to retreat.
Before the blade energy even reached her, Su Xi's face felt a sharp pain, as if someone was constantly slapping her face.
Therefore, she had no doubt that if she were touched by the blade energy, she would end up torn apart by five horses.
"Rock Armor Talisman." Su Xi knew the blade energy was formidable, so she immediately activated a Level 3 talisman.
As the Rock Armor Talisman was cast, a series of stones erupted from the flat ground around Su Xi, forming a solid wall that protected her layer by layer.
The moment the rocks appeared, the blade energy struck.
"Boom!"
The sharp blade energy instantly cleaved into the massive rocks, appearing as though it would shatter them in the next moment.
But just then, the severed rocks seemed to gain life, continuously growing and filling the space that had been split by the blade energy.
Seeing Su Xi's methods, Wu De sneered, "A mere trifle!"
He continuously slashed his steel saber, unleashing blade energy after blade energy. They were as dense as a spiderweb, once again enveloping Su Xi.
Looking at Su Xi, who was enveloped by the dense blade energy, Wu De's face revealed a smile. This time, he would see who could save Su Xi.
