370: What a coincidence

The three of them passed through the Innate Illusion Formation and hid near Peng Qiao's coffin, quietly waiting for Xiao Fan's arrival.

This wait lasted for seven or eight days.

Eight days later, Xiao Fan, disheveled and looking like a madman, successfully broke through the formation.

"Fake, it's all fake!"

With that, Xiao Fan raised the knife in his hand, stepped in front of the bronze coffin, and brought it down with a powerful strike, directly chopping!

Thud!

Sparks flew and metal clanged.

The immense recoil force sent Xiao Fan flying backward, crashing into the stone wall before slowly sliding to the ground.

The pain from his body seemed to clear Xiao Fan's mind somewhat; he quickly sat cross-legged to stabilize his mind.

This stabilization took another seven days.

Seven days later, Xiao Fan slowly opened his eyes.

The madness in his eyes was gone, replaced by clarity.

He calculated with his fingers and muttered to himself:

"Only half a month has passed?"

"This Innate Grand Formation is truly formidable; even an ordinary Tribulation Transcendence Realm cultivator would probably be trapped for several years without being able to escape."

After this encounter with the illusion formation, Xiao Fan's suspicion of someone being in the shadows diminished considerably.

Because although this illusion formation was difficult to breach, it was also his natural barrier.

Xiao Fan didn't think anyone could pass through the illusion formation faster than he could.

If such a person truly existed, they would certainly be an existence he couldn't afford to provoke.

If such an existence wanted to kill him, he would be helpless.

Having thought this through, Xiao Fan no longer hesitated and went straight for the bronze coffin.

Touching the patterns on the bronze coffin, Xiao Fan spoke again:

"It seems this is Peng Qiao's coffin. According to the Three Corpse Daoist, these three corpses were created when Peng Zu implanted them into his descendants, allowing them to gestate."

"The reason he did this was because he had foreseen a great catastrophe for heaven and earth, so he left behind a contingency plan."

"The three corpses uniting can recreate Peng Zu!"

"Although the essence of this Peng Zu has changed, having Peng Zu's memories, how is it not a different kind of life continuation?"

"It's just a pity he ran into me."

With that, Xiao Fan formed a hand Seal and shot a stream of light towards Peng Qiao's coffin, his tone becoming excited:

"As long as I claim this coffin and offer sacrifices, I will not only gain Peng Zu's Legacy but also three Heavenly Immortal Realm Puppets that can grow!"

"At that time, the world will be vast, and I can go anywhere!"

As his voice fell, Peng Qiao's coffin suddenly glowed brightly and floated in mid-air!

Xiao Fan bit the tip of his tongue hard and spat a mouthful of tongue-tip blood towards Peng Qiao's coffin.

However, as soon as the blood landed on Peng Qiao's coffin, Xiao Fan's figure suddenly vanished.

Peng Qiao's coffin also fell heavily to the ground.

As the coffin landed, Peng Qiao's coffin suddenly emitted a strange scent.

The Yao Sisters, unprepared, took a light sniff and immediately felt a surge of heat from their lower abdomen.

Following that, their entire bodies became hot.

Involuntarily, they each took one of Gu Liangyuan's arms, one on the left and one on the right.

Gu Liangyuan looked at the two women who had fallen victim and felt a bit helpless.

Their experience in the Jianghu, let alone compared to Qianqiu and Song Xianer, was even insufficient compared to his least brainy disciple, Zai Xiyue.

At most, they were on par with Wan Wan.

Feeling the two women's hands beginning to become restless, Gu Liangyuan waved his hand and brought them into his sleeve.

After thinking for a moment, he took out the Memory Stone that Lin Furen had recorded for remembrance when they were at the Jun Residence and threw it in:

"Don't say Master doesn't care for you; go solve it yourselves."

Having done all this, Gu Liangyuan turned his gaze back to Xiao Fan, who was hidden in the shadows.

Half an hour later, Xiao Fan's figure slowly emerged. He looked around, and only after confirming there was no one else did he completely relax.

He laughed at himself:

"I was still too cautious, causing myself unnecessary trouble."

With that, he took out a palm-sized white jade bottle.

He muttered some incantation, and the strange scent in the air suddenly materialized into a pink mist.

Like a whale sucking water, the endless pink mist surged into the jade bottle in Xiao Fan's hand.

After collecting the pink mist, Xiao Fan swallowed several Clear Mind Pills and sat down cross-legged.

Half a day later, he slowly stood up:

"This Qi of Evil Desire is truly formidable. Even though I sealed my seven orifices in advance, just getting some on my skin required this much effort to remove."

"However, it's all worth it. Peng Qiao's coffin, here I come."

"Jun Ao Zhi, just you wait for me!"

As he spoke, Xiao Fan imagined Jun Ao Zhi kneeling at his feet and couldn't help but burst into laughter:

"Hahahaha... hahahaha... HAGA!"

Xiao Fan's laughter suddenly stopped. His eyes widened, his pupils constricted slightly, and his gaze was filled with disbelief!

For no other reason than, standing before him, was an impossibly handsome man!

"Gu... Gu... Gu Liangyuan!"

His voice trembled, and his body involuntarily began to retreat.

Gu Liangyuan glanced at Peng Qiao's coffin, which had already been unsealed, and then grinned:

"That's right, it's me. I have you to thank for unsealing it for me."

It would have been better if Gu Liangyuan hadn't smiled; that smile made Xiao Fan feel as if his heart had stopped beating at that moment.

He dared not retreat further, staying rooted to the spot, not daring to move.

At this point, he no longer cared about Peng Zu's Legacy; his mind was filled with only one thought: "I'm going to die."

He knew that with his current cultivation, even if he used every trick he had, it would be impossible to escape from Gu Liangyuan's grasp.

Just as he was despairing, Gu Liangyuan's gentle voice came:

"Don't panic. The world says I am fond of killing, but they don't know I love peace the most!"

"My two greatest traits in life are convincing people with virtue and moving them with great love!"

"I'm a very reasonable person. Although you and my disciple have some disagreements, you did help me after all."

After thinking for a moment, Gu Liangyuan said:

"How about this: I won't kill you this time, but the next time we meet, I will show no mercy. What do you think?"

A glint flashed in Xiao Fan's eyes. At this moment, the desire for survival overcame everything:

"Is that true?"

Gu Liangyuan nodded: "If I break this promise, heavenly lightning will instantly strike me into dust."

Before Gu Liangyuan's voice had even faded, Xiao Fan turned and ran, heading straight for the illusion formation!

"Xiao Fan."

Gu Liangyuan called out softly from behind him.

Xiao Fan's body paused slightly but he showed no intention of turning back. Instead, he burned his Lifespan to further increase his speed, fleeing even faster.

Gu Liangyuan raised an eyebrow slightly. Oh, he's not stupid.

Faster, faster!

Even faster!

I'm almost at the illusion formation!

Xiao Fan looked at the illusion formation, which was within reach, and cheered himself on, yelling frantically in his heart.

As long as I enter the illusion formation, I'll have room to maneuver!

However, just as he was about to reach the illusion formation, he suddenly felt as if he had run into something head-on, which sent him flying several feet backward.

Looking up, he saw Gu Liangyuan still wearing a brilliant smile:

"What a coincidence, we meet again."

Xiao Fan: I * * * & * &##&!

Buzz!

Suddenly, Xiao Fan felt a sharp pain in his spiritual platform.

A surging energy instantly filled his entire spiritual platform, making his vision go white, and he directly lost consciousness.
