Lin Wu had been in the form of an armor the entire time, hidden underneath Shirong''s robes and thus no one had seen him. But now that Shirong was attacking, he instinctively attacked using the Immortal Crystal Armament.


    But instead of turning into a weaponpletely, Lin Wu did something else. He dementedness over Shirong''s right hand and formed a gauntlet. The gantlet was covered in thin tes of crystal that slid over each other and at the knuckles, barbs were present.


    It was these barbs that were glowing with the green light when Shirong punched.


    ''Immortal Crystal Armament: Gauntlet Form!''


    Lin Wu released concentrated radiation from the barbs along with Shirong''s Immortal Sky Shaker art''s wind attribute spirit Qi.


    <em>~DENG~</em>


    A loud sound was heard as Shirong''s fist met the barrier''s firstyer.


    <em>~crack~crack~crack~crack~</em>


    Then in an instant, fouryers were instantly destroyed. The people watched on in shock as even n Head Lu was unable to do the same. He could have done it if he used more of his strength but it would have also harmed the juniors around him.


    But now Shirong had somehow aplished the same without much problem. n Head Lu could also sense the Wind attribute Spirit Qiing from Shirong and thus thought of this to be part of his n''s techniques and did not doubt him.


    Elder Pei was horrified at this and spat out more blood to speed up the activation of the Teleportation talisman. This was the same kind of teleportation talisman that Shirong had sacrificed to hide the truth from everyone.


    Shirong knew that if she sessfully activated the talisman, tracking her would be extremely difficult. The talisman would be able to teleport her to any ce within 10,000 kilometers.


    Also, right now she was using her essence blood to speed up the process of activation, who knows if she had another one of those teleportation talismans and if she would use it after escaping from here.


    If she did, then she would more 20,000 kilometers away from here, which would make it difficult for even his n to find her. Perhaps only someone well versed in the Spatial Dao might be able to figure out where she went.


    But from what Shirong knew, there were less than three experts like these and none of them was someone who could be easily convinced.


    Once Shirong had seen the teleportation formation and the defensive barriers, he knew Elder Pei was being supported by someone big and that this was a conspiracy against him and perhaps even the entire Ji n.


    He knew of the enemies of the Ji n and wondered which one of them would be so gutsy to act like this in their territory.


    Shirong''s eyes red at the woman as the Teleportation formation activated. Her body started blurring and she would be gone any moment now. Shirong originally wanted to capture and interrogate her, but now he wondered if it was even worth letting her live.


    He gritted his teeth and exerted more of his strength, destroying thest of the barrier.


    <em>~Crack~</em>


    But still, this was already enough to dy him long enough that Elder Pei had already teleported halfway through.


    While this was happening, Lin Wu was thinking about the situation too. He could sense Shirong''s frustration at being unable to stop elder Pei. Lin Wu thought about it for a bit before making up his mind.


    "Hehe, I''ll just get to see more entertainment if I do this…" Lin Wu said to himself.


    Just as Shirong had given up on stopping Elder Pei, he felt a drain on his spirit Qi.


    <em>~Shua~</em>


    <em>~Zoom~</em>


    A streak of green light was released from his fist and hit Elder Pei. He did not know how it happened or why, but when the light died down, elder Pei was still there standing. The teleportation had been stopped, but the difference was there was now a long spike pierced through elder Pei''s forehead. The spike was attached to nothing but the gauntlet on Shirong''s hand.


    "What the…" Shirong muttered to himself.


    <em>~shing~</em>


    The spike receded into the gauntlet, and it was as if it never existed to begin with. The others looked on in disbelief as the dead body of Elder Pei slumped to the ground.


    Shirong quickly looked around and saw the while they were shocked by the dead woman they either didn''t see the spike or they didn''t care.


    "ELDER PEI!" some of the disciples shouted in horror.


    They couldn''t understand the situation as it had all happed so quickly and were left in a daze. The rest of the elders were able to regain their wits after a couple of seconds, but n head Lu was the first toe forward.


    "Seal the perimeters! Take the disciples away, I do not want a single person speaking about this!" n Head Lu ordered.


    "YES, CLAN HEAD!" The elders responded.


    The guards were summoned, and the students were corralled into their quarters. The elders assured them that they would be fine as long as they do not do anything stupid. The students quickly epted this and knew they were in something deep that was beyond their capabilities.


    Shirong meanwhile was standing beside the corpse of the dead elder and scanning it with his spirit sense. n head Lu approached him and stood silently. Shirong found a few things of interest on her body and furrowed his brows.


    He took the spatial storage treasure from the dead elder and checked it quickly, finding some things that were not good.


    "Take a look," Shirong said handing the spatial storage treasure, which was in the form of a bangle to n head Lu.


    n Head Lu closed his eyes and took a look inside the bangle. He took a few minutes before opening his eyes as a serious expression appeared on his face.


    <em>~Sigh~</em>


    "Seems like your conjecture was right… elder Pei was truly a traitor… not only to you but also the n." n Head Lu said.
