Chapter 749 Light In The Darkness
Guchang, Fan, and Mu Qiuxue rushed toward the Water Cave at full speed. They tried their best to avoid profound beasts along the way. Although they were worried about Yun Lintian, they believed no one could catch up with him if he wanted to escape.
Swoosh—
All of a sudden, Bi Xian appeared in the air ahead of Guchang's group, causing them to halt their tracks.
Upon seeing it was Bi Xian, Guchang cupped his fists and greeted her. "It's been a while, Matriarch Bi."
"Indeed," Bi Xian smiled gently. She glanced at Mu Qiuxue and Fan briefly before asking. "I wonder where you are heading to, Patriarch Hongniu."
Guchang waved his hand slightly. "Please call me Guchang. I'm no longer in the position… We're planning to hide in the Water Cave for the time being."
Bi Xian responded. "Water Cave? I see. It's indeed a good place… I wonder where's Young Master Huoyun Tian, Brother Guchang?"
"He was intercepted by the Myriad Pill Palace's guardian. However, he should have arrived here soon." Guchang explained shortly.
Bi Xian nodded slightly. "I won't waste Brother Guchang's time further. Please go ahead. I will try my best to distract them."
"Many thanks." Guchang clasped his hands and rushed out with Fan and Mu Qiuxue under Bi Xian's thoughtful gaze.
Swoosh—
"How's it, mother?" Bi You flew over and asked concernedly.
Bi Xian shook her head. "The situation is not optimistic. The Myriad Pill Palace has dispatched their Myriad Guardians. I'm afraid the Western Continent would be shaken soon."
"Matriarch." Suddenly, a female Heavenly Fox Clan practitioner appeared before Bi Xian. She respectfully reported. "The Ancestral Land of the Fire Cloud Rat Clan has disappeared without a trace. We cannot determine what method they are using."
Bi Xian's brows raised in surprise. "You mean it's literally disappearing, including the Fire Cloud Mountain?"
"Yes, Matriarch. That area has become a vast crater. It was as if the land was dug out as a whole." The female practitioner confirmed.
Astonishment appeared on Bi Xian's face. She had never heard of or seen anyone that could move a large piece of land away before. What exactly happened?
"Are you sure no one has attacked them?" Bi Xian asked in doubt.
"This subordinate can confirm. There's no trace of the battle over there." The female practitioner responded solemnly.
Bi Xian frowned deeply. "You can go back first."
"Yes, Matriarch." The female practitioner responded and disappeared from the place.
"You'er…" When Bi Xian was about to say something to her daughter, she suddenly saw Bi You's eyes turned white, accompanied by an ethereal aura. This was the appearance when Bi You used her "Heavenly Divination" ability.
A short moment later, Bi You returned to her original appearance. The trace of worry she had earlier seemed to disappear completely.
Bi Xian didn't ask for the result. She expressed her concern instead. "You'er, why are you so reckless? Don't you know it will harm your foundation if you continue to use it?"
"I'm sorry to make you worry, mother." Bi You bowed her head slightly. "However, it's worth it."
Bi Xian's expression turned serious as she asked. "What did you discover?"
"There is good news and bad news. What do you want to know first?" Bi You asked with a smile.
"Bad news first." Bi Xian replied quickly.
The smile on Bi You's face reduced a bit as she said. "Chaos. I've seen chaos everywhere. The dark force will arise, turning everything into darkness."
A strange light flashed through Bi Xian's eyes. She suddenly recalled the piece of news she got from Huoyun Yurou. It was said the future that Tianqi Zongwei had seen was full of chaos and the whole world plunged into the darkness. Wasn't it the same?
"However, amidst the darkness, there's light. This light will represent everyone's hope." Bi You said further while thinking of the blurred figure she had seen in her mind earlier. That figure seemed to remind her of someone…
Noticing Bi You's strange expression, Bi Xian asked. "Have you seen the person clearly?"
Bi You shook her head slightly. "It's too faint… but his outline and aura gave me a familiar feeling."
"Familiar feeling? Could it be this person is someone you know?" Bi Xiao felt it was unrealistic, but she didn't say it directly. How could her daughter know such a powerful person?
Bi You was about to speak, but her expression changed slightly as she perceived a familiar aura rushing toward her direction.
Bi Xian turned to look at the newcomer and frowned slightly. This person was a young human. She didn't understand why he rushed in her direction despite knowing she was there.
Bi Xian released her aura and was about to stop the young man. She was interrupted by Bi You first. "Mother, we know him."
"We know him?" Bi Xian was confused.
Bi You nodded gently. "He's Young Master Huoyun Tian. Of course, it should be a false name."
Bi Xian was surprised to hear this. She retrained her aura and calmly waited for the young man.
The young man was no other than Yun Lintian. He had long discovered Bi Xian and Bi You and decided to greet them, by the way. That was why he didn't intend to use Shadow Step to avoid their Spiritual Sense.
A moment later, Yun Lintian arrived a few meters away from Bi Xian and Bi You. He clasped his hands and said politely. "Junior Yun Lintian greets Matriarch Bi and Young Miss Bi. In case you don't know, I am Huoyun Tian."
"Is this your real name? It's not another false name, right?" Bi Xian teased.
Yun Lintian chuckled. "This is my true name. Please forgive me for deceiving both of you back then. I had no choice in that situation."
Bi Xian smiled and said. "I understand. No need to explain… By the way, are you heading to the Water Cave?"
Yun Lintian's brows raised slightly. "Did Senior Guchang pass by here?"
Bi Xian nodded. "Yes. You should go now. I heard that the Myriad Pill Palace's people are currently heading in this direction."
