Chapter 567 Urgent Assistance Token (2/2)
However, it would come soon.
But there was one problem. They had already searched all of the marked Mythic Genesis essence locations in this district, so if they wanted to continue, they would have to head to other districts.
Swoosh!
While Zhou Yuan was planning on instructing the team to prepare to set off again, the sound of rushing was suddenly heard, before he saw a figure rush over from far away and land in front of him.
It was Lu Yan, who should have been standing guard in another location. However, her pretty face was currently filled with worry.
“What is it? Have another group of idiots come?” Zhou Yuan immediately asked upon seeing this.
Lu Yan hurriedly shook her head, and extended her hand, as a blood-red token rose into the air.
“The chief disciple urgent assistance token?!”
The expression of the surrounding disciples changed at the sight of this blood-red token, and even Zhou Yuan’s pupils abruptly shrank as his expression turned grave.
This token was the urgent assistance token of their Cangxuan Sect that only the chief disciples could use. When activated, it would immediately find the nearest Cangxuan Sect disciple.
However, it was a very precious item that would not be used unless absolutely needed.
Zhou Yuan did not dare to tarry, he immediately grabbed the token and poured Genesis Qi into it.
The token flickered, as an urgent voice sounded, “I’m the chief disciple of Spirit Rune Peak, Jin Zhang. My team was ambushed by disciples of the Sacred Palace, so we retreated and are using a Genesis Rune boundary to defend ourselves. The other side has two extremely powerful chief disciples!”
“Thirty members of my team… have already been killed by them.”
The last few words were clearly filled with deep anger.
*Uproar*!
The eyes of Gu Hongyi, Zhou Tai, Lu Yan and the others instantly turned red when they heard this, while their faces turned green with rage.
This was their first time hearing about the deaths of their fellow disciples!
“Whoever receives this distress call please assess your abilities first and act accordingly. If you guys are not strong enough, immediately find and join up with other teams. We can still hang on a little longer…”
The last few words were much softer, as the light on the token slowly dimmed.
Zhou Yuan reached out and grabbed the token as he lifted his head, his expression unchanged as he looked towards the other disciples. All of them were clearly seething with rage.
Only now did they finally realize the cruelness inside the Mythic Utopia.
“Zhou Yuan, what do we do?” Gu Hong’s bright eyes stared directly at Zhou Yuan. Although she was filled with anger, she still managed to retain some rationality. Jin Zhang had said in his message that the two chief disciples on the other side were extremely powerful.
If they rashly went into this, they may end up making things worse instead.
The gazes of the other disciples also converged towards Zhou Yuan, especially the dozen or so disciples from Spirit Rune Peak. They knew that Zhou Yuan had the right to refuse this cry for help because he also needed to be responsible for the members here.
The place was silent, and even the air seemed to solidify.
Zhou Yuan looked at the token in his hand with a calm and expression as he mumbled, “The token came from the west…”
With a wave of his sleeve, Genesis Qi whizzed out and turned into a map. His gaze slowly moved, before coming to a stop as he pursed his lips. The token came from the same direction as the six color treasure location obtained from Lei Qinghai...
“Why does Sacred Palace have two chief disciples there… do they also know about the six color treasure location?” Zhou Yuan’s gaze flickered in thought.
He waved his hand, causing the Genesis Qi map to dissipate, before raising his head to look at the numerous disciples that were looking at him with anxious expressions.
At this current moment, even Gu Hongyi’s hands were tightly clenched as she stared at Zhou Yuan and waited for his decision. Although she would understand if Zhou Yuan chose not to go to their aid, it would still be quite hard to accept.
Zhou Yuan glanced at them and chuckled. Genesis Qi rose from under his feet, and lifted him into the air.
“What are you guys still standing around for…”
“Let’s go, how can we not help our fellow disciples when they’re in trouble?”
Although there were often conflicts between the various peaks in the sect, once outside, all peaks ultimately belonged to the Cangxuan Sect. Zhou Yuan had a very favorable opinion of the sect, and it was a place where he had grown substantially. In his eyes, it had already become his second home after the Great Zhou Empire.
All of the Cangxuan Sect disciples that had entered the Mythic Utopia would share both glory and hardships. If Jin Zhang was allowed to be killed by Sacred Palace, it would also be a huge blow to the reputation of the Cangxuan Sect.
“Sacred Palace chief disciples huh…”
“I do want to find out what’s so amazing about them.”
Zhou Yuan’s voice faintly echoed as he flew away on his Genesis Qi.
The disciples on the mountain finally returned to their senses at this moment. None of them had expected Zhou Yuan to be so decisive. One must know that the Spirit Rune Peak had even set a Genesis Rune Boundary to try and stop Yaoyao last year.
The Spirit Rune Peak disciples felt somewhat ashamed, but as they looked at Zhou Yuan’s back, respect unknowingly arose in their eyes.
“This fellow…” Gu Hongyi pursed her lips and smiled faintly, her eyes gleaming as she looked at Zhou Yuan’s back.
“He’s pretty handsome when he tries to act cool.”
However, worry soon emerged on her pretty face.
These were chief disciples of the Sacred Palace after all...
