Chapter 890: Luo Shen Basin (Please Subscribe)_1

A sliver of fish belly white slowly rose, and the night curtain was gradually dispelled...

Lying peacefully in her bed, Bai Gongyu's beautiful eyes slowly opened, suddenly she exclaimed, "Xu Sheng?"

Seeing no one respond, she hurriedly got out of bed and scanned her surroundings, but the empty room only contained herself!

A look of despondency washed over her face as she bit her lip, muttering, "Has he already left?"

Damn it! She hadn't expected that after merely talking about it yesterday, he really hadn't woken her up!!

"Tap tap tap~~"

Knocking sounds suddenly emanated from outside the door, Bai Gongyu's eyes lit up with hope, "Is it Xu Sheng???"

Before she could finish, Bai Gong Li pushed the door open and stepped in, walking up to her...

Seeing that the person was not the one she had been thinking of, Bai Gongyu's expression dimmed slightly as she spoke softly, "Father..."

Bai Gong Li's gaze rested on his daughter's saddened demeanor, and he couldn't help but purse his lips...

In a soft voice, he consoled, "Xu Sheng has already left, it's very likely that you two were simply not fated to be together, Feather, try to see it that way..."

He had thought that Xu Sheng and his daughter had become partners until today when he realized it was but unrequited love!

Naturally, he also regretted the loss of Xu Sheng as a powerful ally...

Bai Gongyu's beautiful eyes looked at him, struggling to keep up a smile she said, "Father, I'm fine, there's no need to comfort me, I've thought things through these past few days..."

Then, her tone shifted, "Could you let me be alone for a while?"

Her voice was incredibly calm...

Bai Gong Li opened his mouth as if to say something, but he ultimately sighed and said nothing, turning to leave the room...

Almost the moment the door closed, the stoic look on Bai Gongyu's face crumbled...

The tears that welled up in her eyes flowed down like a kite with its string cut...

With a fierce punch to the bed, she began to cry silently...

Perhaps she and Xu Sheng would never have the chance to meet again in this lifetime...

…

Elsewhere, Xu Sheng couldn't help but yawn, wondering aloud, "Is someone thinking of me?"

After looking around, he pulled out a sheepskin map...

Once he saw the light blue pattern and the words "Luo Shen Basin" clearly, he pondered, "I should be reaching the Luo Shen Basin very soon..."

The Luo Shen Basin, as the name implies, is an extremely wide sea area, so large it can even separate the east and west coasts, where ordinary people cannot cross on their own strength...

Ordinary people would choose to travel on land not covered by the basin, but in doing so, the distance to travel would be many times longer!

With that in mind, Xu Sheng immediately burst forth at a terrifying speed, racing toward the east...

Suddenly, what entered his field of view was the endless sea horizon, the rolling waves continuously lapping at the shore, the water shimmering with glints of white light...

However, gathered here were many disciples in sect robes, and even several elders above the Scattered Immortal Realm!

Each of them looked solemnly at the sea in front of them, all with a hint of wariness in their eyes...

Apart from them were the ordinary people without any cultivation level, standing behind and gazing at these Sect Disciples...

Seeing the situation deviate from his expectations, Xu Sheng's eyes flickered a few times as he folded his arms and watched the scene...

The commoners were discussing in hushed tones, "Have you heard? Recently, there's a man-eating Jiao Dragon in the Luo Shen Basin that has already devoured many people!"

"Yes, I've heard too. This Jiao Dragon's strength is said to have surpassed the Scattered Immortal Realm! Its power is quite terrifying!"

"Indeed, several Sect Elders from different sects have tried to slay the Jiao Dragon, but, sadly, not a single one has survived!!!"

"This damned Jiao Dragon, why has it been causing such a ruckus lately! Hopefully, this sect's Elders and Disciples will be able to slay it!"

Meanwhile, an Elder who was standing to the side with hands behind his back said disdainfully, "It is just a mere Jiao Dragon, not as mystical as they make it out to be!"

Another Elder holding a light cyan ornamental sword, who looked extraordinarily calm, said gravely, "We must not be careless! This Jiao Dragon has survived many killings; it's probably not that simple!"

"Right, we must be careful!! To not become its feast!"

"The sea is the Jiao Dragon's battlefield, it would be better to lure it out! That way, the success rate of the killing will increase substantially,"

The Elder furrowed his brows and, after pondering for a few seconds, nodded and said, "It appears we have no other choice!"

Then, turning his deep gaze to the gathering of Disciples behind him, he said in a cold voice, "All Disciples of the Gui Xuan Sect, heed my command: first, lure out the Jiao Dragon, then join forces to kill it!!"

The Gui Xuan Sect Disciples responded in unison, "Yes, Grand Elder!!"

After his words fell, these Disciples each drew a line across their Personal Swords with a finger, opening tiny wounds that released strands of fresh blood, which gave off a faint smell of blood...

Then, they channeled their Spiritual Power into the swords, causing them to emit intense halos of light…

Upon seeing this, the Elder shouted, "Grant!"

Almost instantly, hundreds of Spirit Swords soared into mid-air and, under the control of these Disciples, rushed into the vast expanse of the sea at high speed…

Continuously probing deeper beneath the surface...

Xu Sheng, witnessing this spectacular sight from behind, squinted and remarked, "Using the smell of blood to attract the Jiao Dragon? Interesting!"

Do they consider the Jiao Dragon to be a dog? What makes them think it will be drawn by the scent...

However, if the plot progresses as expected, the Jiao Dragon will most likely appear!

The commoners who saw this powerful scene exclaimed in awe, "Worthy of the Gui Xuan Sect! They're actually luring the Jiao Dragon to kill it! But... are they confident they can slay it?"

"Indeed! If they attract it but fail to kill it, it could be a huge disaster! Maybe even we might be affected!"

"No one knows what will happen. The Sect Elders and Disciples who came to slay the Jiao Dragon in the past attempts were all devoured by it!"

"You're right, we should step back a bit to avoid getting caught up in it!"

In an instant, these people reached a consensus and retreated a dozen meters further back...

Feeling the formation of mild whirlpools below, the Elder's turbid eyes suddenly brightened and he shouted, "Everyone pay attention, the Jiao Dragon is coming soon!!"

As soon as he spoke, the other Elders at his side prepared for battle…

The Disciples, with serious expressions, heard his words and immediately directed their Spirit Swords towards the surface of the sea...

With a "splash!" the waves surged...

The hundreds of Spirit Swords shot out of the sea, followed by a glimpse of a huge creature's reflection emerging on the water surface...
