2322 Something Strange
After leaving Yang Ruoxu's cave abode, Su Zimo pondered for a moment and asked, "Did anything happen outside recently?"
"The greatest thing should be that Emperor Bo Xun escaped from Avici and returned to the Heavenly World," Princess Scarlet Rainbow said.
"Emperor Bo Xun!"
Su Zimo was shocked.
He knew about the Martial Dao Prime Body heading to Avici to save Yan Beichen.
However, after the Martial Dao Prime Body entered Avici, he severed his connection with the Green Lotus True Body.
Even after a thousand years, there was no reaction. It was as though the Martial Dao Prime Body had vanished from the world.
The Green Lotus True Body did not know what happened in Avici either, let alone the fact that Emperor Bo Xun escaped.
That was the reason why the Green Lotus True Body was so surprised when he heard that Emperor Bo Xun was still alive.
Princess Scarlet Rainbow recounted the news about Avici. "I heard that recently, many cultivators of the Heavenly World have headed to Avici to check things out."
"Avici…"
Su Zimo was in deep thought. Suddenly, his heart skipped a beat and he said, "The Saraca Fruit!"
"What?"
Princess Scarlet Rainbow and Liu Ping were stunned.
Su Zimo said in a deep voice, "The Saraca Fruit might be in Avici and it can heal Senior Brother Yang's Essence Spirit injuries!"
The matter of the Saraca Fruit was known to the Martial Dao Prime Body prior to entering Avici; that was why the Green Lotus True Body knew about it as well.
"Zimo, are you going to head to Avici?" Princess Scarlet Rainbow asked.
"That's right!"
Su Zimo did not choose to hide the truth.
Even without the incident with Yang Ruoxu, he had considered whether he should make a trip to Avici. After all, that was where the Martial Dao Prime Body disappeared.
Right now, it was even more imperative!
Princess Scarlet Rainbow said, " Avici is incomparably dangerous. I'll go with you!"
"I'll go too!"
Liu Ping said without hesitation as well.
"There's no need."
Su Zimo shook his head. "I do have a favor to ask of the two of you."
"Senior Brother Su, please speak," Liu Ping said.
Su Zimo said, "Senior Brother Yang is severely injured and it will be extremely difficult for him mentally and physically during this period of time. He doesn't have anyone protecting him."
"I'm worried that something might happen to him, so I hope that the two of you can visit him more during this period of time and help take care of him."
Princess Scarlet Rainbow said, "Don't worry, we'll take good care of Senior Brother Yang."
"No matter what, wait for me to return!"
Su Zimo reminded again.
"Alright!"
Princess Scarlet Rainbow and Liu Ping nodded.
Liu Ping continued, "I'll go back and pack up now. I might as well move to Senior Brother Yang's place during this period of time and accompany him."
"I'll go too."
Princess Scarlet Rainbow said.
"Guys, let's bid farewell here."
Su Zimo cupped his fists and bowed towards Princess Scarlet Rainbow and Liu Ping.
He did not have anyone he could trust in Heaven and Earth Academy—Princess Scarlet Rainbow and Liu Ping were the only ones he could entrust this task to.
Princess Scarlet Rainbow said, "Zimo, I hope that you can return safely with the Saraca Fruit as well!"
The three of them flew through the air and left separately.
Avici was indeed an unpredictable and dangerous place for others.
However, Su Zimo had the Hell Suppression Tripod that was completely repaired with him. He believed that this treasure would definitely be of some use in Avici!
"Saraca Fruit…"
Suddenly, Su Zimo sneered.
Yang Ruoxu was right. There was indeed something wrong with him being able to return alive!
When Su Zimo heard the news of Avici, he guessed that someone must be plotting in secret to attack him!
The injury to Yang Ruoxu's Essence Spirit was bait!
The other party predicted that he would leave Heaven and Earth Academy for Yang Ruoxu and head to Avici. That was the reason why they set up such a trap!
"Let's see who are the ones who wants to lay their hands on me!"
Su Zimo's expression was as cold as ever.
The fact that Yang Ruoxu was severely injured triggered his killing intent!
Just as Su Zimo was pondering, a figure flashed before him and blocked his path.
The person who arrived was the number one fairy of the inner sect, Yan Bingying, who was on good terms with Fang Qingyun, Tang Peng and the others.
"Is there anything?"
Naturally, Su Zimo did not have a good attitude towards her either since he had a feud with Fang Qingyun and the others.
Yan Bingying had a conflicted expression as she asked, "Senior Brother Su, where are you going?"
"What has it got to do with you?"
Su Zimo asked expressionlessly.
Yan Bingying opened her mouth slightly and hesitated.
Su Zimo did not waste time with her. He circled around Yan Bingying and sped in the direction of the sect's teleportation formation.
"Senior Brother Su!"
Yan Bingying did not turn around but a voice transmission from her spirit consciousness sounded in Su Zimo's mind. "Don't ever go to Avici. That's all I have to say."
Su Zimo did not reply. In fact, he did not even pause and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"Sigh."
Yan Bingying looked at Su Zimo's back view and sighed deeply.
She knew that this paragon who had condensed a tenth stone step on the Dao Heart Stairs was about to die prematurely!
…
At the same time.
In the depths of Heaven and Earth Academy, in an ancient cultivation palace, white smoke rose from the incense burner, shrouding the entire palace like a paradise.
Through the smoke, an incomparably handsome middle-aged man could be vaguely seen. He wore a green scholarly robe and sat in a lotus position with his eyes closed to rest—it was the Sect Master of the Academy.
Suddenly!
The smoke surged and gathered towards the middle.
Before long, a figure walked out slowly from the depths of the smoke. It was Old Xuan who was guarding the various secret pavilions and was also Elder Ten of the academy!
"What is it?"
The moment the Sect Master opened his eyes, a boundless starry sky flashed within. There was smoke for thousands of kilometers and a deep ocean surged…
However, everything returned to normal in the blink of an eye.
Those eyes became emotionless and clear.
"Have you heard the news of Avici?"
Old Xuan asked bluntly, "What do you think?"
"There's something strange about it."
The Sect Master said indifferently, "I knew a long time ago that Emperor Bo Xun escaped from Avici. Now that this news has spread through the Heavenly World, someone must have done it on purpose."
"What do you mean?"
Old Xuan frowned and asked, "What's their motive for releasing this news intentionally?"
"This might be a trap."
The Sect Master said deeply, "Right now, various factions are restless and countless cultivators are rushing to Avici to check things out."
"However, this piece of news might be mixed with fake information. For example, Avici might not have any cracks…"
Psst!
Old Xuan's expression changed as he said sternly, "If what you said is true, all the cultivators who enter Avici this time round will probably be buried there and none of them will be able to come out!"
How many lives would be lost?!
Old Xuan pondered for a moment before continuing, "However, Emperor Bo Xun did escape from there. This can't be faked."
"The reason why Emperor Bo Xun was able to escape was because he was Emperor Bo Xun."
The Sect Master smiled gently and asked instead, "However, how many Emperor Bo Xuns are there in this world? Which of the cultivators heading to Avici this time round can compare to Emperor Bo Xun?"
