Chapter 434: You Get Lost Too
Huo Shao Yan also felt like standing up to agree, but when he saw that no one else moved, he held back the urge and kept watching how everyone around him reacted.

After Tu Xiao shouted, he saw that the others stayed quiet, and he flew into a rage: “What do you mean by this? So I am the only coward who wants to live, is that it? Do you dare swear to the Heavenly Dao that you have never once thought about harming someone? What are you pretending to be good people for now?”

Shui Qiu Bai frowned and said: “Tu Xiao, calm down.”

“Calm down? I cannot calm down. If you want to go throw your lives away, I will not stop you, but I am not going.”

When he finished, he sat down in anger and turned his head to the side.

Jin Yuan gave a cold laugh: “If you do not want to go, then do not go. Did anyone beg you to come? How ridiculous.” She narrowed her eyes: “From the start I said I did not need you. You insisted on following me, and now you say these things on purpose to pick on me, is that it?”

With just a few sentences, Jin Yuan turned all the blame toward herself.

She stood up and grabbed Yu Zhao by the arm: “No need for you to worry about us anymore. I will take Liu Yun away right now.”

Yu Zhao had been quietly watching the show, but Jin Yuan suddenly pulled her toward the door.

The others naturally could not just watch Jin Yuan drag her away, so they stood up to block her.

Someone shouted: “Move aside!”

Another person said anxiously: “Jin Yuan, calm down too!”

Jin Yuan snapped: “Get lost!”

Someone tried to persuade her: “Jin Yuan, we can talk this out. Do not act on impulse.”

Jin Yuan only snarled back: “You get lost too!”

The room instantly turned noisy.

The usually gentle as jade Feng Jiusi suddenly erupted, his shout of “Enough” pressing down on the room. The air felt heavy, and everyone fell silent at once.

He looked at Jin Yuan and said: “Jin Yuan, do you really think you alone can protect Liu Yun in Godsfall Land?”

He turned his gaze to Tu Xiao: “Tu Xiao, we have never forced you. If you want to withdraw, that is your own choice. There is no need to make such a scene here.”

He swept his eyes over everyone: “Those who still plan to go to Godsfall Land, stay. The rest can leave.”

Everyone was awed by his aura and kept their mouths shut. After he finished speaking, they all began to weigh the pros and cons in their hearts.

Tu Xiao had been about to leave, but after he took a few steps toward the door and saw that no one else moved, and Feng Jiusi’s face was dark, as if a shadow of gloom lay over him, Tu Xiao hesitated. In the end, he did not step out of the room.

After they all sat down again, Feng Jiusi’s expression eased a little, but he did not dare mention what had just happened. Instead, he looked at Yu Zhao and said: “The Jade Ruyi on Liu Yun is too eye catching. Is there a way to hide it for her?”

Huo Shao Yan shouted: “Not just the Jade Ruyi. Her face too. It would be best to cover everything.”

Everyone turned to look at Yu Zhao.

It was true that there were few ugly people among cultivators.

Yet Yu Zhao’s beauty still stood out. Even in the room, her skin looked like satin woven from silver threads, glowing with a soft, moist sheen.

If she appeared in Godsfall Land like that, she would definitely bring them a lot of trouble. The best plan was to lower her presence and not let her draw too much attention.

Reluctantly, Tu Xiao took out a spirit bracelet from inside his clothes and tossed it onto the table in the middle: “Put it on. Anyone at Undergo Tribulation or below will not be able to see through it.”

A faint glint flashed through Yu Zhao’s eyes, but she did not move.

Jin Yuan picked up the spirit bracelet from the table and personally put it on Yu Zhao’s wrist. She even complained that Tu Xiao had such a good item yet had not taken it out earlier, almost making Tu Xiao choke with anger.

They discussed what other preparations they needed to make, then finally broke up and left one by one.

Three days later.

Huo Shao Yan pushed open his door and was startled to see an unfamiliar young woman standing outside: “Who are you?”

The young woman opened her mouth and spoke in a familiar voice: “Young Heir Huo.”

Huo Shao Yan suddenly understood. He circled the young woman once, clicking his tongue in wonder: “That spirit bracelet is really amazing. I completely cannot see your old face at all, Liu Yun.”

Yu Zhao gave a small smile.

The others were also surprised when they saw Yu Zhao, then praised the deep heritage of the Tu clan. After that, the group headed to the largest harbor on Sacred Wood Star.

Among the small worlds of the Southern Region, Sacred Wood Star did not rank near the top in overall strength. But because of its special geography, many cultivators came and went, and it was especially prosperous.

As Yu Zhao walked along the road and looked around, she saw only a few Nascent Soul cultivators. There were many more people whose cultivation level she could not see through at all.

There were two ways to travel from Sacred Wood Star to Godsfall Land. One was to cross the starry sky with pure physical strength. The other was to ride the large starships that Sacred Wood Star had specially built.

The first method took too much time and effort, so most cultivators chose the second.

When Yu Zhao and the others arrived at the harbor, all she could see was a dense crowd of people.

At the very front of the harbor, a giant starship was moored. It was a hundred zhang long and thirteen zhang tall. The hull was a deep purple, and they could faintly see the figures of cultivators moving about on the ship.

Feng Jiusi said: “You wait here. I will go buy the tickets.”

He had clearly already asked about the procedures for taking the starship. After giving his instructions, he squeezed into the crowd and soon disappeared from sight.

Yu Zhao let her gaze wander aimlessly over the surroundings.

Suddenly, her eyes snapped to a stop, and disbelief flashed through them.

Jin Yuan noticed her strange look and asked: “What are you looking at?” She followed Yu Zhao’s gaze, but saw only a sea of bobbing heads.

Yu Zhao lowered her eyes and said calmly: “Nothing.”

Inside, she was filled with shock, but she did not let any of it show on her face. Her wildly beating heart pounded in her ears like drums.

Jin Yuan only half believed her.

Yu Zhao added: “Really, it is nothing. I just thought I saw someone who looked a bit familiar, but when I looked more closely, it did not seem like them. I must have mistaken them.”

Only then did Jin Yuan stop asking.

After about the time it takes to burn a stick of incense, Feng Jiusi returned holding six tickets.

He pointed ahead: “The place to line up and board is over there on the right. I will take you over.”

They followed Feng Jiusi and slowly squeezed their way forward.

Just then, a young woman’s angry shout rang out from the crowd ahead: “You dare touch your Grand Auntie’s butt? You are asking to die!”

Right after that, a huge force spread out around her. Some people could not dodge in time, fell backward, and knocked down the people behind them.

The scene turned chaotic.

Yu Zhao and the others reacted quickly and were not caught up in the commotion.

Looking ahead, they saw a young woman in black with bright red hair standing in the middle of the fallen crowd.

Her right foot was planted on the chest of a lecherous man, and murderous intent filled her brows.

The man’s chest had already caved in, blood covered his mouth and nose, and his face was full of terror. He opened his mouth to beg for mercy, but only bloody foam sprayed out.

Two Daoists suddenly flashed out from the front of the harbor and rushed toward the young woman, shouting: “Stop!”

Hope lit up in the lecherous man’s eyes.

The red haired young woman let out a cold snort and stomped down with the tip of her foot.

The man’s eyes bulged, and his life quickly drained away.

With a look of disgust, the young woman used his clothes to wipe her shoe, then slowly lowered her leg.

The two men had arrived a step too late. Their faces showed displeasure as one of them said: “Sacred Wood Star Harbor forbids causing trouble.”

The red haired woman said lazily: “I was not causing trouble. I only took care of a piece of trash.”

The two spoke coldly: “You will come with us.”

Seeing that there was not a trace of fear on her face, they hardened their tone.

The young woman’s red lips curled into a carefree smile. She took something out and tossed it into the arms of one of the men.

He caught it and took a look. His expression instantly turned respectful. He used both hands to return the item to the young woman, then grabbed his companion and left quickly.
