- Chapter 23 - Su Qiaoran is Pursued
On the other side, as Su Qiaoran entered the secret realm, she took out a delicately shaped compass from her Storage Ring. After channeling her power into the compass, traces of the nearby powerful ferocious beasts appeared on its surface.
“With my current strength, ordinary Peak Saints are no longer my match. I can only seek out beasts at the Great Saint level to feel any pressure so I can smoothly break through to the Great Saint realm.”
Su Qiaoran was only one step away from the Great Saint realm, and she urgently needed a powerful battle to unleash her potential for the breakthrough.
Once she broke through to the Great Saint realm, becoming a Holy Maiden would be a certainty.
Before long, Su Qiaoran found the most suitable target based on the aura of the beasts indicated by the compass—a ferocious beast at the Initial Stage of the Great Saint realm. She quickly headed in that direction.
Meanwhile, on the other side, if two people hold hands when entering, they will be teleported to the same area. Following Murong Xue’s instructions to kill Su Qiaoran in the Magnificent Secret Realm were the three powerful experts at the Peak of Great Saint.
Upon entering the Magnificent Secret Realm, the leader among the three powerful Great Saints took out a jade plate from his Storage Ring, which Murong Xue had given them before entering.
After channeling his power into the jade plate, it began to fly in a specific direction—directly toward Su Qiaoran.
Upon seeing this, the three experts at the Peak of Great Saint no longer hesitated and rushed toward Su Qiaoran’s direction.
On the other hand, Su Qiaoran soon found her most suitable target, a Three-eyed Eagle at the Initial Stage of the Great Saint realm.
Seeing someone intruding into its territory, the Three-eyed Eagle let out a series of threatening roars at Su Qiaoran.
Looking at the enraged Three-eyed Eagle, Su Qiaoran also appeared extremely serious. The Three-eyed Eagle, as the name suggests, has three eyes on its head, with two eyes used specifically to observe its opponent.
Above those two eyes is a closed eye, which contains the inherited talent of the Three-eyed Eagle clan, the Destruction Beam. It is said that once the eye opens, no one in the same realm can withstand it.
However, Su Qiaoran had no other choice at this moment. With a flick of her hand, a long sword appeared, and she charged toward the Three-eyed Eagle.
As long as she got close to the body of the Three-eyed Eagle, preventing it from using the Destruction Beam, she would have a chance of defeating it.
Seeing Su Qiaoran rushing toward it, the Three-eyed Eagle realized that the opponent was coming for it and roared in anger as it pounced at Su Qiaoran.
“Human, you dare to intrude into my territory? Die!”
The body and claws of the Three-eyed Eagle were sharp as well. At the moment of contact, Su Qiaoran’s long sword collided with the sharp claws of the Three-eyed Eagle, and a terrifying force surged from the beast, causing Su Qiaoran to be knocked back several steps.
However, Su Qiaoran did not back down and charged forward again.
Her speed was incredibly fast, leaving the Three-eyed Eagle with no opportunity to unleash the Destruction Beam. The beast’s sturdy feathers showed signs of blood from Su Qiaoran’s relentless attacks.
“Human, are you seeking death?”
The Three-eyed Eagle roared, finally finding an opportunity as the third eye on its head slowly opened.
At that moment, Su Qiaoran felt an immense sense of threat.
“This isn’t good!”
Her expression changed, and in the next second, the Destruction Beam shot out from the Three-eyed Eagle’s third eye, enveloping Su Qiaoran within its grasp.
However, just as the third eye began to close, the Destruction Beam disappeared, and the Three-eyed Eagle felt an overwhelming danger approaching from behind.
Almost as it turned, a sword shadow swept right across its head, and the Three-eyed Eagle fell.
“Phew, as expected of the Three-eyed Eagle; even I almost got caught.”
After slaying the Three-eyed Eagle, Su Qiaoran took a deep breath. She felt somewhat weakened, as she had only managed to barely withstand the blast of the Destruction Beam, sustaining some minor injuries.
Nonetheless, the benefit from this battle far outweighed the drawbacks, particularly in enhancing Su Qiaoran’s combat awareness. Once she got out, she could begin preparing for her breakthrough to the Great Saint realm.
After collecting the corpse of the Three-eyed Eagle, Su Qiaoran turned to leave. The fluctuations from the battle would likely attract others, and she wasn’t used to being watched.
But just as Su Qiaoran was about to leave, her body reacted as if sensing something, and she disappeared from that spot.
In the next moment, a large spear phantom swept away everything within a ten-kilometer radius.
Having just escaped with her life, Su Qiaoran was left feeling shaken, her face filled with shock.
“This power is from the Peak of Great Saint! Who exactly is targeting me?”
Once she realized what had happened, Su Qiaoran’s expression turned grim. It was clear that she hadn’t expected to be singled out.
Moreover, judging by the intensity of the previous attack, it was evident that the opponent intended to kill her.
“Oh, no wonder you are the Holy Maiden Su; you actually managed to dodge it.”
Just as Su Qiaoran was about to leave, she didn’t expect a figure, holding a long spear, to slowly approach her from a distance. The moment she saw the figure, her pupils abruptly contracted.
“Dragon Slayer Spear, Chen Feng! I didn’t expect to encounter you here. Since you’re here, I suppose the Phoenix Slayer Blade Qin Bo and Mo Ling Sword Li Yuan are nearby as well.”
Right as Su Qiaoran finished speaking, two figures gradually emerged beside her.
“I truly didn’t expect to be remembered by the Holy Maiden Su; it’s a real honor for me, Qin Bo.”
Qin Bo looked at Su Qiaoran and donned a self-satisfied smile that he thought was charming.
In response, Su Qiaoran let out a cold snort.
“Who in the Central Region doesn’t know you Three Flower Gathering Brothers? Since you have set your sights on me, I assume you’re acting on someone’s orders. Let me guess, is it Murong Xue?”
“You don’t need to know that, Holy Maiden Su. Accept the payment and take care of the problem for us. You should just submit gracefully.”
Chen Feng said with an expressionless face and a very cold attitude. They were not mindless individuals; they absolutely wouldn’t reveal their employer’s identity until Su Qiaoran was slain.
If Su Qiaoran managed to escape, it would be their dereliction of duty.
“Hmph, you’re quite cautious. If that’s the case, then come at me!”
Su Qiaoran huffed coldly. Although she was aware that it was Murong Xue targeting her from behind, she had no evidence to prove it.
She initially thought that Chen Feng and the others would assume her death was certain and inadvertently reveal Murong Xue’s name, but she didn’t expect them to be so careful.
With this thought, Su Qiaoran hesitated no longer, took out a teleportation talisman, and vanished from the spot.
