Purple Mist Dao Master

Chapter 697 - 429: 3 Hao Fur!

Not only Yan Chuan—The Fire-Eyed Golden Ape!

The Fire-Eyed Water Ape!

The Mo Flood Dragon!

The Ying Li!

All these Beast Kings didn’t dare to move either.

In such a situation, many Beast Kings began envying the Eight-Winged Centipede, which was the first to retreat. Although it was severely wounded by the combined forces of Yan Chuan and Chen Ze, and although most of the Fire Bud Crystals it acquired were taken away, it found fortune amid misfortune by leaving early and escaping safely.

In contrast to them!

In contrast to theirs!

Trembling with fear, their fates unknown!

"Old Yan—"

Wang Zhengyi frowned tightly. He wasn’t afraid to die, but with Yan Chuan and Chen Ze being so dangerous, he was about to speak up and offer some advice.

Suddenly.

At this moment.

Rustle!

A myriad of vines suddenly danced, covering the sky—

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The vines whipped.

Yan Chuan, Chen Ze, Wang Zhengyi, Baili Qingfeng, the Fire-Eyed Golden Ape,...

Everyone, humans and beasts alike!

Each and every one was lashed out by the vines as if struck by a whip, catapulted out, and instantly flung off Moth Island.

"Bang!"

Yan Chuan felt his eardrums nearly shatter. His chest and abdomen were struck by a vine, and with his back facing up, he was flung off Moth Island, flew through hundreds of feet underwater—

Clap!

He was directly hurled out of Nanyue Lake into the air, where he halted his momentum.

"I survived?"

Yan Chuan, having narrowly escaped death, found it hard to believe.

He looked down.

He saw something in his arms of which he didn’t know the source. As he looked carefully—

"Wuzhiqi?!"

It had a form like an ape, with a white head, long mane, golden eyes, and snow teeth, quick and nimble!

Amazingly, it was the Second-Rank Divine Weapon ’Wuzhiqi’ left behind by Fu Manduo.

Such a coincidence—

"It just happened to fall right into my arms?"

Yan Chuan couldn’t believe it.

Besides ’Wuzhiqi’, shaking it a bit more, Yan Chuan found a square compass that shook out nearly a hundred Fire Bud Crystals.

The Fire Bud Crystals snatched by Fu Manduo were also inside, and they also belonged to Yan Chuan!

Yan Chuan was delighted.

He looked at the compass again—

"Jinxiu River and Mountain!"

"The Jinxiu Compass. It’s used for tracking location, Fu Manduo must have used it to trace me, my junior brother, and Old Wang’s Monkey King Avatars."

Yan Chuan held the compass, now was not the time for study.

As soon as he thought about it, the back of his head began to itch. Reaching up to touch it—

"Hmm?"

"What’s this?"

Yan Chuan clearly felt three strands of hair behind his head that felt different, he hastily took out a mirror from the Star Stone to check. To his surprise, there were three strands of emerald green hair on the back of his head that had appeared at some point, upon careful examination, these strands had even more fine hairs growing on them—

"This is—"

Yan Chuan was shocked, he recognized them—

"This is!"

"The Moth Vine!"

...

"Old Yan!"

"Senior Brother!"

Two calls interrupted Yan Chuan’s shocked thoughts. He followed the voices and saw Wang Zhengyi breaking the water surface, and Chen Ze riding the waves, approaching from left and right.

He checked his position again.

This was not the Crescent Island at the center of Nanyue Lake, but rather to the southeast, close to Iron Arm Monkey Mountain.

"This place is not suitable for a prolonged stay!"

Seeing Chen Ze and Wang Zhengyi, Yan Chuan temporarily set aside the peculiarity of the three strands of hair at the back of his head. He signaled and dashed towards the shore. He remembered clearly that, in this water, there were Fourth Rank Beast Kings like the ’Fire-Eyed Golden Ape’, not to mention the other four Third-Rank Beast Kings were also extremely formidable—

The Mo Flood Dragon, Ying Li, Fire-Eyed Water Ape, Eight-winged Centipede.

In the waters, the Water Beast Kings held innate superiority, their strength doubling, making them untouchable.

"Let’s go!"

The two people and one beast rode the wind and waves straight for the shore.

...

"Brother Yan!"

As soon as they reached the shore, Baili Qingfeng came to meet them; he exhaled deeply, saying with lingering fear: "Thankfully it was an ordeal without real danger."

In this fight, Baili Qingfeng and Yan Chuan hit it off immediately during their exchange at Moth Island, and they enjoyed a pleasant conversation.

After Fu Manduo entered, intending to ally with Baili Qingfeng to attack Yan Chuan and Chen Ze, Baili Qingfeng simply played along and revealed Fu Manduo’s plans to Yan Chuan.

Thus came the scene where Baili Qingfeng turned against them.

Thus came the scene where Yan Chuan and Chen Ze intentionally didn’t cooperate.

The three joined forces.

Adding Fu Manduo’s provocation of the Fire-Eyed Golden Ape.

This was essentially the combined power of three Third-Rank and one Fourth Rank.

Logically, their alliance had the potential to take down a Third-Rank.

However—

"Fu Manduo, hailing from one of the ’Four Families’, the Fu Family, has profound family heritage, and her ’Dragon Cauldron Towering Skill’ is deemed the top defense in the Heavenly Secret Book. Despite their full assault, it couldn’t be stopped."

Baili Qingfeng smiled bitterly.

He was frightened by the near escape of Fu Manduo, knowing that if she escaped, not only he but the entire Baili Family would be doomed, with unimaginable consequences.

As for a genuine alliance with Fu Manduo from the beginning?

No, no, no!

Baili Qingfeng would rather trust a fleeting acquaintance like Yan Chuan than believe Fu Manduo’s malicious lie.

The Baili Family leans on the Fu Family.

Yet he hid the news about the Moth Vine, not reporting it to the Fu Family. If Fu Manduo completed her plans and used this matter to threaten him, it would equally end in his death.

Baili Qingfeng was sure that if he collaborated with Fu Manduo, she would definitely use this matter to blackmail him afterwards, forcing him to hand over the acquired ’Fire Bud Crystals’ as hush money, or even to empty him out completely.

Given Fu Manduo’s dominance, she would do it without a doubt.

Based on this, Baili Qingfeng chose to take a risk and cooperate with Yan Chuan.

Fortunately, despite the risks along the way, Fu Manduo was finally dead.

Fu Manduo.

This was the first shock.

As for the second—

"The ’Moth Vine’ ran wild!"

"This has never been heard of in the records!"

Baili Qingfeng saw Fu Manduo being strangled by the Moth Vine earlier, feeling both delight and fright. When thousands of vines covered the sky, he almost thought he was going to die as well.

Fortunately, he survived the catastrophe.

It was an indescribable feeling.

"Indeed, never heard of it."

Wang Zhengyi sent a message to Yan Chuan, speculating: "I think it might be because I’m too special, perhaps the Pearl I picked up before obtaining the ’Alligator Beast Avatar’ is unusual."
