Mortal's journey to immortality

Chapter 1284 Escape from the tiger’s mouth

Wang Lu left in a flash. Time was urgent. He originally wanted to go to the second floor, but he did not do so.

On second thought, failure would happen at this moment. He only had one chance. If he couldn't hit the target in one shot, there would be no chance of saving him.

Finally, he unexpectedly went to Room 893 West on the first floor.

When I entered the room, I saw an extremely gorgeous woman in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul stage, dressed in a green dress, meditating very quietly with a hint of uneasiness on her face.

The moment he entered, the woman frowned slightly as if she was aware of something. Without thinking, Wang Lu pointed at her and put her into the human bag.

"Thorn."

The door opened silently, and a charming young woman with phoenix eyes, a bun on her head, and a snow-white dress flashed in. When she saw that the room was empty, she felt something was wrong and shouted, "Close the shop!"

"boom!"

As soon as the words fell, a colorful light shot up into the sky and instantly enveloped the Baixian Inn.

It is airtight and water cannot get in.

They didn't care about anything else. As long as they could capture the remnants of the Tianfu Sect, what difference would it make even if it angered the public?

Wang Lu naturally brushed past the female cultivator the moment he opened the door. He did not escape to his own guest room, but ran straight to the lobby of the inn.

As he expected and to his admiration, the female cultivator reacted extremely quickly. Seeing that the place was empty, she closed the shop cleanly and efficiently.

But she is fast, and Wang Lu is even faster.

His speed was far faster than the short time it took for sound to reach the ears of the person controlling the formation. He was out of Baixian Inn just before the light of the formation filled the sky.

Without caring about the chaos in the inn, Wang Lu left in a leisurely manner.

Not long after, he reappeared in a different appearance and casually walked into an inn.

He asked for a room, set up a formation, and released the woman. He then cast a spell and the female cultivator woke up leisurely.

Seeing the man who made her heart palpitate standing in front of her, Zhou Xue subconsciously stepped back several feet.

It was just that she seemed to have seen this male cultivator somewhere before. As she recalled carefully, she exclaimed "Ah", covered her mouth with her hands, her eyes full of disbelief.

He was about to bow deeply to Wang Lu.

It’s really you, it’s really you, oh my god, “woooo woooo”, I, Zhou Xue, am so lucky to meet you, Senior Wang, in my lifetime.

Zhou Xue's whole body was shaking violently, she was stunned, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably.

Over the past two hundred years, she has experienced too many life and death experiences and hardships. She has been like a thief, hiding during the day and at night, hiding from place to place, and always maintaining a high level of vigilance. She has experienced so much sadness and grievance, and has been seriously injured and dying several times. If she had not held on to the belief that "I still want to see my sister Zhou Mu once more", she would have died in a mass grave somewhere and turned into a handful of yellow earth.

In order to stay away from Lord Quancan and her sister, she could only bear the pain and go in the opposite direction from them based on the vague feeling. From then on, they would never see each other again despite thousands of miles of mountains and rivers.

She didn't know how to disguise herself, so she was often seen through by others. Many times, she was hunted down for a long time. If it weren't for the feedback and guidance of the Twin Eyes, she would have died no less than ten times.

Thinking of this, Zhou Xue was overwhelmed with grief. Tears rolled down her cheeks like beads. She cried loudly and did not stop for a long time.

She had never been so vulnerable before, and even when she was on the verge of despair over the years, she never shed a tear.

When she met Wang Lu, it should be that he found her. Although she didn't know why he took her away, with him around, she felt like she had the greatest support and endless warmth. Tears came uncontrollably, and she wanted to cry as much as she could, crying out all the pain and sadness that filled her heart.

Faced with Zhou Xue's tears and all kinds of emotions welling up in her heart, what else can Wang Lu do?

Perhaps, the best understanding and comfort is to look at her quietly and let her cry loudly.

As long as I am there, I can give her the safest protection.

Yes, after so many years, I haven’t seen her. Has her cultivation level fallen from the peak of the late Nascent Soul stage to the middle Nascent Soul stage?

This is not easy for a female cultivator. You can understand without thinking how many times she has been exhausted and heartbroken, and how much willpower and persistence it takes to hold on until today.

Thinking of Fang Qian's decision about the room, it seemed like a matter of life and death, as if it was a matter of urgency. Just by a narrow margin, he almost missed Zhou Xue and caused a disaster.

Generally speaking, the second floor is indeed the best choice, but this time it is not only unusual, but also extremely special.

Why do I say this? The reason is one word: poverty.

A day's stay on the first floor of Baixian Inn costs ten high-quality spirit stones, a day's stay on the second floor costs one hundred, and a day's stay on the third floor costs one thousand.

If it is the second level, it will be 36,500 high-quality spirit stones a year.

Even under normal circumstances, it is a considerable expense for a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage.

Considering that this Yuanying stage cultivator from Tianfu Sect had obviously been discovered and then vaguely locked by some secret method, it was deduced that he was at Baixian Inn.

However, because Zhou Xue cut off her own clue in time, the Jiu family's pursuit finally stopped at the Baixian Inn, and they were unable to determine who the person was or in which room he was.

With this conclusion, it goes on to say that nearly two hundred and thirty years have passed since the fall of the Tianfu Sect. This person has been hiding for so many years without being found, and he has suffered a lot. Whether it is spirit stones, elixirs, formations, magic tools, or various items for practicing the hundred arts of immortal cultivation, they are all extremely scarce.

This person must have been hunted to the point of having nowhere to go, so he made up his mind to find a safe place to rest and recuperate before embarking on the road of escape again.

Then, spirit stones became extremely precious to him, and he would not use even a low-grade spirit stone easily.

To sum up, in the absence of spirit stones, it is most unlikely that the room on the first floor is where this person's true body is.

At the same time, the underground secret room of Baixian Inn finally mentioned that the man in Room 890 on the west side of the first floor was obviously a great master of the Heavenly Master level of the Loose Cultivator Alliance. Why did he put this room at the end?

You know, no matter people or things, the ones who appear last are the important ones who are the finale.

In Wang Lu's opinion, after half a month of secret investigation, Baixian Inn has basically identified the room where Zhou Xue is.

So, why did he say it in the end?

His original intention should be to use this bargaining chip to make another fortune, but half a month had almost exhausted the patience of the other four, and their Alliance of Loose Cultivators had already gained enough benefits. They had to play tricks in moderation. If they continued to do so again and again, they would definitely be considered greedy and would attract the unanimous targeting of the other eight.

For this reason, he made up his mind, and also to avoid any further complications, to reveal his final trump card.

The nine rooms that were mentioned so seriously before were just made up just to tease the four people.

Who would have thought that things would not go as planned, but were so bizarre and coincidental. Just when the five people were about to finish their discussion and had told the most important news, they believed that there would not be any accidents in the underground space which was defended by a powerful formation. So they spoke their minds without any preparation. Unexpectedly, Wang Lu suddenly appeared from the sky without any warning at this most critical juncture and almost grabbed the fruits of victory.

Wang Lu's mind raced, he made a prompt decision, changed his mind, and dangerously brought Zhou Xue out with him, finally reaping the fruits of victory.

Escape from the jaws of death.
