How Hard Is It To Catch You?

"Miss Ye, is the treasure you mentioned really inside?"

In the secret passage of the ancestral mansion, the burly Chu Tianwu and Ye Yao walked side by side.

Behind them were Chu Yang and the elders.

Ye Yao didn't respond, but quickened her pace and walked forward.

Chu Tianwu and the others followed closely behind.

"This is…?"

When everyone walked out of the passageway, they were all shocked by the scene before them.

There was a deep pit at the bottom of Yangcheng.

Of course, the most shocking thing was the three-legged black cauldron in the deep pit.

The black cauldron was incomparably huge, standing upright like a giant mountain. Moreover, there were piles of corpses in the black cauldron.

"Miss…Miss Ye, is this the treasure you're looking for?"

Looking at the mountain-like cauldron, Chu Tianwu finally realized how amazing the treasures in the ancestral mansion were.

"Yes, it's called the Soul Refining Cauldron. Back then, it was seized by the Chu Emperor, and its whereabouts are unknown."

"I didn't expect it to be hidden here," Ye Yao said excitedly.

"Soul Refining Cauldron?"

Chu Tianwu stared blankly, the thought of snatching the treasure rising in his heart.

Not only him, but even Chu Yang and the elders had evil thoughts.

"Wake up!"

Ye Yao shouted, her voice like muffled thunder.

Everyone with different thoughts was awakened by this voice.

"Miss…Miss Ye, what's going on?"

Chu Tianwu returned to his senses and looked at Ye Yao uneasily.

"It has a bewitching effect. Your realm is not high enough to withstand it."

" Of course," Ye Yao said coldly," if you were pure enough, you wouldn't have fallen in love so quickly."

Chu Tianwu and the others panicked and quickly knelt down to explain.

" I saw it just now. There's a sealing array carved under the Soul Refining Cauldron. If we forcefully attack it, the array will be disturbed. Even if we get the cauldron, it will still alert the other forces."

"So, we can only use people to resolve the array," Ye Yao said to the crowd.

Chu Tianwu and the others were shocked, and a bad feeling welled up in their hearts.

"Since your ancestor left behind the secret key, it means that you can break the array."

"Who's going, father or son?" Ye Yao looked at Chu Tianwu.

Chu Tianwu gritted his teeth.

"Chu Li, you can let Chu Li go. He's no longer of any use anyway."

Just as Chu Tianwu was about to make a decision, Chu Yang spoke first.

Ye Yao looked at Chu Yang coldly, but she didn't say anything.

"Great Elder, please go."

Seeing that Ye Yao didn't object, Chu Tianwu ordered," Also, bring my big brother who's still alive!"

"Yes, sir!"

First Elder stood up and left.

Bang!

However, just as he walked out for a while, he flew back again.

"You father and son are really heartless. Not only did you poison your family, but you also brought outsiders into the ancestral land. Are you worthy of the surname Chu?"

Chu Li, who had already changed into white, led the twelve Dark Warriors out of the passageway.

"Chu Li…?"

When they saw who it was, Chu Tianwu, his son, and the elders widened their eyes.

Ye Yao wasn't too surprised because she already knew about the existence of Zi Ye and the others.

The reason why she did not kill Zi Ye and the others was because she hoped that they would save Chu Li after the incident.

She just did not expect that these people would dare to bring Chu Li here.

"Kill, leave no one alive."

Chu Li did not waste any time and immediately gave the order.

"Yes, sir!"

The twelve people behind him released their strength and charged into the crowd.

"This is…the power of laws?"

Mu Tianwu and the rest were shocked. Why were there so many Nirvana Stage practitioners behind Chu Li?

Not to mention them, even Ye Yao was extremely surprised.

Although they had not fought before, she could sense that the strongest among these people was also at the Sea Transformation Realm. They did not even have a Heavenly Spirit Realm.

But now, after not seeing them for a few days, these people actually grasped the power of laws.

"Are you surprised?"

"Don't worry, there's something more surprising." Chu Li looked at Ye Yao coldly.

"It is indeed unexpected."

" I did think that Aunt might have a backup plan," Ye Yao said with a smile." But I didn't expect it to be so surprising."

She looked at Zi Ye and the rest and said," I'm very curious what kind of method it is to be able to let them grasp the power of laws at the Sea Transformation Realm stage?"

"Aunt?"

Chu Li was shocked because her mother's name was Ye Qingqing.

"Hehe, Chu Li, oh Chu Li, it's a pity that you don't know anything."

Ye Yao sneered and raised her hand. The pitch-black passage instantly turned into the Fiery World.

Whoosh!

A fire python suddenly appeared between Zi Ye and Chu Tianwu.

The fire python's body was huge. With just one tail, Zi Ye and the others were forced back.

"Domain?"

Zi Ye and the others were shocked. Only now did they know that the mysterious expert was actually a Saint.

Even Chu Li was surprised, let alone them.

He thought that Ye Yao would at most reach Nirvana, but he had never expected her to have already transcended the mortal realm and become a saint.

How old was she!

"Are you surprised?"

Seeing the change in Chu Li's expression, Ye Yao could not help but smile smugly.

She thought for a moment and said," My goal has always been the Soul Refining Cauldron. So if you leave now, I can turn a blind eye. After all, you're my aunt's child."

"Where is she?"

Chu Li's expression changed drastically.

Previously, he was still very puzzled as to why Ye Yao was so certain that there were treasures in the ancestral mansion.

So it was because of his mother, the woman who disappeared after his fifth birthday.

"It's better if you don't know."

"Because that level is too far away for you." Ye Yao shook her head.

"I asked you where she is."

Chu Li's expression turned cold. Immediately after, a surge of frost energy spread out from him.

Kacha!

The world of fire was instantly replaced by the power of ice.

"You…?"

Ye Yao's eyes widened.

If Zi Ye and the others had surprised her, then Chu Li had frightened her.

One should know that she was at the late stage of the sage realm. Although it was just a casual attack from her, it was enough to deal with an ordinary sage expert.

But now, a young man whom she had mocked and looked down on had easily broken her flaming domain.

"How…how is this possible?"

Chu Tianwu and the others widened their eyes in disbelief.

Wasn't Chu Li's Dantian crippled? How could he become a saint?

Chu Tianwu and the others were both shocked and terrified.

"Since you call her aunt, I guess her identity is not ordinary."

"Tell me, if I catch you, will they come and save you?" Chu Li asked coldly.

" I admit that you surprised me, but you wanted to catch me…"

Before Ye Yao could finish her sentence, icicles shot out from where she was standing like snowflakes exploding, forcing her to use her domain to resist.

Whoosh!

Under the impact of the fire power, the ice under her feet began to melt.

In the end, it became a small area fire domain.

She looked at Chu Li and said,"I told you, you wanted to capture me…" 

Kacha.

Before she could finish speaking, icicles pierced at her again.

What was even more terrifying was that the space she was in had actually frozen.

"Spatial Force?"

Ye Yao was shocked.

He did not expect Chu Li to not only become a Divine Transcendence, but he had also mastered two types of nomological powers.

"What's so difficult about capturing you?"

Chu Li's expression was cold as he used the power of lightning to create the Thunder Calamity again.

Boom!

A bolt of lightning as thick as an arm pounced towards Ye Yao like a python.

"Three…three?"

Ye Yao's eyes widened. Without hesitation, she burst out with the power of fire and broke the space. Then, she grabbed the token on her waist and crushed it.

"Chu Li, if you want to save my aunt, bring the Soul Refining Cauldron to Penglai Immortal Island in exchange!"
