Chapter 33: Master's name is taboo, you don't deserve to know

The roar from Sect Master Luo Wu a moment ago was so full of grandeur, yet how pitiable he looked while fleeing now!

Originally, upon hearing Sect Master Luo Wu's words, many scattered cultivators couldn't help but feel a deep respect in their hearts. To think that Sect Master Luo Wu, a powerful expert of the Annihilation Realm, was not afraid of death and was willing to self-detonate to avenge the sect's disciples!

Such resolve, it was no wonder he could become a mighty figure in the Annihilation Realm!

Many people admired Sect Master Luo Wu, feeling that even though the Luo Heaven Sect had been annihilated and no one survived, the spirit of Luo Heaven Sect and Sect Master Luo Wu would live on forever!

However, as Sect Master Luo Wu fled in panic, everyone froze in place. The words of admiration they had intended to speak got stuck in their throats.

"What the heck!"

"The shameless old coot actually pulled this trick!"

The most shocked of them all was Yang Chun, also an Annihilation Realm expert!

Seeing Sect Master Luo Wu, who was also at the Fifth Heaven of the Annihilation Realm and the sect leader of one of the Four Great Sects, intending to self-detonate for the sake of revenge, he had initially felt a pang of sorrow, as if he could empathize with his situation!

But never did he expect this old fellow to turn tail and run!

Damn it!

After Yang Chun realized what was happening, he couldn't sit still anymore. He chose to flee in the opposite direction of Sect Master Luo Wu. After all, Leng Yanran's attention was all focused on Sect Master Luo Wu. There was no time for her to deal with him.

As long as he was given some time, he didn't believe that with his Fifth Heaven of the Annihilation Realm cultivation, he couldn't break through this restricted formation barrier!

He had initially come to help Luo Heaven Sect only for the benefits. He hadn't planned to exert much effort; he was just there to watch from the sidelines!

But who could have expected that Luo Heaven Sect had provoked a monster!

Carrying a Heaven-Grade defense treasure was one thing, but that jade pendant that could unleash the full power of the Ninth Heaven of the Annihilation Realm was like giving them away for free, casually tossing out thirty of them!

Even if he summoned his fellow disciples from the Jin Ding Sect, faced with the horrifying explosion just now, they would all end up as cannon fodder!

He didn't have any intention of tangling with Leng Yanran at this point. All he wanted was to escape this place quickly, return to the Jin Ding Sect, and hope that Leng Yanran and the mysterious expert behind her wouldn't set their sights on the Jin Ding Sect!

Seeing Sect Master Luo Wu fleeing frantically, a faint smile finally appeared on the corner of Leng Yanran's lips. She didn't rush to chase; instead, she descended slowly, carefully inspecting between the thirty Sky Monuments.

"Master said, not a single living person should remain. Carelessness is not an option."

As Leng Yanran murmured her master's instructions, she meticulously examined the gaps between each Sky Monument. In the end, she found that not a single person had survived!

Whether it was those below the Profound Sky Realm or even the elder-level existences at the Profound Sky Realm and even Unity Realm, all were turned to dust under this bombardment!

Even some senior Unity Realm elders, though they managed to avoid the direct impact of the explosion, were still torn apart by the shockwaves, meeting a miserable end!

"It would have been better to die directly under the Sky Monuments. Why add more suffering?"

Leng Yanran showed no sympathy, casually speaking before waving her hand, releasing a burst of spiritual energy that turned the remains into a pile of debris. This was to prevent any possible use of feigned death techniques.

She wouldn't be the least bit careless when it came to her master's instructions. No trace could be left behind!

Far away, the cultivators who had been observing the battle felt their temples throbbing intensely.

It was so terrifying!

This was practically a devil! She easily wiped out Luo Heaven Sect, one of the Four Great Sects of the Northern Region, and did so with such calmness, without any emotional fluctuations.

Furthermore, she didn't seem to care about Sect Master Luo Wu's escape, whether it was because she thought she couldn't catch him or because she had run out of trump cards.

After a long while, Leng Yanran finally finished her inspection of the Sky Monuments. She sighed in relief.

Looking up, she gazed in the direction where Sect Master Luo Wu had fled, and then began flying towards him at a leisurely pace.

At this moment, Sect Master Luo Wu's eyes were bloodshot as he continuously used his divine abilities to bombard the barrier before him. Even though the transparent barrier didn't appear sturdy, his attacks couldn't create even the slightest ripple on it, let alone break through!

"Damn it! Damn it!

"What grade of formation is this? Could it be a Heaven-Grade Grand Formation?" Impossible! How could they set up a Heaven-Grade restriction right under my nose without me sensing it?

"Moreover, setting up a Heaven-Grade formation is incredibly difficult. It can't be accomplished in just half a month!

"Could it be... that this is a conspiracy planned against our Luo Heaven Sect decades ago?

"Hiss…"

Sect Master Luo Wu had exhausted most of his spiritual energy, yet he couldn't see any hope of breaking the barrier. This restricted formation's barrier was even more solid than their Luo Heaven Sect's protective formation!

At this moment, overwhelming despair engulfed him. He couldn't help but speculate on how the other party had managed to accomplish this, but no matter how he thought about it, he couldn't come to a conclusion.

And at this moment, a figure had silently appeared behind him.

"Sect Master Luo, now that the Luo Heaven Sect has been exterminated, or to be more precise, only you, Sect Master Luo, are left. Experiencing the destruction of your sect must feel terrible, doesn't it?

"But you brought this upon yourself. You dared to utter arrogant words, defaming my Master. That's deserving of punishment!"

Leng Yanran gazed calmly at Luo Wu, her tone cold as she recounted his crimes as if listing them one by one.

Her arrival naturally signified Luo Wu's impending death.

"Who exactly is your so-called Master? And this formation, when was it set up? Could it be you've harbored ill intentions toward our Luo Heaven Sect from the beginning?"

Luo Wu's expression turned panicked. It was as if he knew that escaping was futile and he ceased his actions. Instead, he stared intently at Leng Yanran, seeking answers.

"Planning in advance? I'm sorry, everything that happened today was merely a whim of my Master. As for the name of my Master, you're not worthy to know.

"Alright, Sect Master Luo, it's time to go. Don't keep your disciples waiting on the road to the Yellow Springs for too long!"

Leng Yanran's expression remained undisturbed. She harbored deep disgust for Luo Wu, who dared to claim that Master took her as a disciple with ulterior motives. Master was so gentle, so dedicated to her, and never asked for anything in return. Yet this damned Luo Wu dared to defame Master!

Unforgivable!

Without hesitation, Leng Yanran flicked her wrist, sending the jade pendant toward Luo Wu.

Luo Wu's vigilance surged as he fixed his gaze on the jade pendant. He was well aware of the terror contained within it!

However, though the Sky Monument's power was formidable, its flexibility was limited since Leng Yanran herself hadn't executed the technique. As long as he seized the right opportunity, he might be able to evade the strike!

Furthermore, he wished to use the collision of the Sky Monument and the barrier to break through and escape to safety!!!
