Chapter 510: Can you give me face and let this little friend go?

Translator: GodBrandy Editor: Kurisu

The red-haired Spiritual Emperor grabbed the red-colored hacking blade and rode it, chasing after Song Shuhang.

The way he was riding the flying sword was rather unusual. He didn't step on it like other cultivators. Instead, he grabbed the red-colored hacking blade with his hands and allowed it to pull him along.

The hacking blade whizzed forward, and the red-haired Spiritual Emperor holding onto it also shot forward like an arrow.

The peculiar position he used to ride the flying sword was something he had come up with after some research. It was the position that allowed him to bring out his full speed. It was the most aerodynamic pose according to the fluid dynamics branch of physics.

While he was chasing after Song Shuhang, the corner of the red-haired Spiritual Emperor's mouth rose as he muttered, "I wasn't mistaken about it… his body has the same aura as that 'sword light'!"

This red-haired Spiritual Emperor was one of the cultivators chasing after the Soul Devouring Demonic Gourd earlier.

When the old man used the Mount Tai Seal back then, the red-haired Spiritual Emperor realized through his keen senses that the aura on Song Shuhang's body was somewhat similar to the one present on the sword light.

In that case, was there some relationship between the sword light and this boy?

Perhaps it wasn't just a coincidence that the sword light made a circle while flying and headed toward that boy. Maybe that boy has some treasure with him that is related to the sword light...? That might be the reason the sword light carrying the Soul Devouring Demonic Gourd approached him on its own! the red-haired Spiritual Emperor guessed.

Perhaps the key to the Soul Devouring Demonic Gourd was precisely on the body of that youth!

Thereupon, the red-haired Spiritual Emperor quietly separated from the group of cultivators chasing after the sword light.

After taking a roundabout route, he arrived in front of Song Shuhang and decided to destroy the Mount Tai Seal weighing down on his body.

His objective was that treasure in Song Shuhang's possession related to the sword light.

❄️❄️❄️

"That guy is chasing after us, and the speed of the silver dragon puppet isn't fast enough to shake him off. He will quickly catch up to us..." Song Shuhang said after glancing backward.

Yu Jiaojiao said, "Do you still have something up your sleeve?"

Song Shuhang forced a smile and said, "I have a few talismans, but they are all of the Fourth Stage rank."

Talismans of the Fourth Stage weren't of much use against a Fifth Stage Spiritual Emperor.

Yu Jiaojiao said, "In that case, should we surrender?"

"Ahaha." The laughter of the red-haired Spiritual Emperor was transmitted from behind. The distance between the two parties had sharply reduced. Soon after, the red-haired Spiritual Emperor bent his finger and flicked it, shooting out two streams of sword qi.

Yu Jiaojiao quickly executed a magical technique and created a shield. Since the moment she had gotten on the back of the silver dragon puppet, she had been secretly accumulating her strength to execute this defensive magical technique.

The shield she created was able to block one of the two streams of sword qi.

The other stream still headed toward Song Shuhang, ready to chop him up.

Song Shuhang gritted his teeth and grabbed the treasured saber Broken Tyrant.

❮Inverted Scale Saber Technique❯—Dragon Scale Style!

When the saber technique was unleashed, the saber qi turned into a true dragon that surrounded Song Shuhang's group, protecting them.

At the same time, Song Shuhang spat blood from his mouth. He needed to use his true qi to operate the ❮Inverted Scale Saber Technique❯, and his current situation was so bad that his body could explode at any time. For this reason, he suffered a backlash as soon as he used the saber technique.

"Riiiip!"

The Dragon Scale Style and the sword qi of the red-haired Spiritual Emperor clashed against each other.

The Dragon Scale Style was shattered to pieces with one blow of the sword qi.

The difference in strength between the two parties was too much. It wasn't something that a mere 'saber technique' could make up.

After smashing the Dragon Scale Style, the strength of the sword qi of the red-haired Spiritual Emperor didn't diminish in the least as it headed toward Song Shuhang's body.

But right at this time, the dazzling ray of light of a defensive formation was emitted from Song Shuhang's spacesuit.

In the next moment, a burst of repulsive strength spread from the spacesuit.

After hitting Song Shuhang's spacesuit, the sword qi was unexpectedly rebounded.

These were the effects of the defense Fairy Firefly arranged on the spacesuit earlier. The main purpose of the defense was to protect Song Shuhang in case he bumped into meteorites or something similar while flying toward space.

At the crucial moment, the repulsive strength helped Song Shuhang block the sword qi.

"I didn't need to use an armor talisman," Song Shuhang muttered.

"Ring, ring, ring~" But right at this time, Song Shuhang's phone rang.

Yu Jiaojiao said, "Shuhang, someone is calling you."

"I don't have the time to answer the phone at this moment!" Song Shuhang operated the silver dragon puppet with all his strength and fled for his life. At the same time, he used the corner of the eye to glance back at the red-haired Spiritual Emperor.

The chance they had to shake off the opposite party was less than 10%!

It was uncertain what would happen next...

❄️❄️❄️

"That kid has several treasures!" The corner of the red-haired Spiritual Emperor's rose. The strength of the sword qi he used earlier was only of the Fourth Stage. He wasn't planning to kill Song Shuhang. His objective was to capture him alive.

However, he hadn't expected that his two streams of sword qi of the Fourth Stage rank would be both blocked.

Under normal circumstances, he would have played with such an interesting kid a bit more...

"But now, I don't really have the time to play with you." The red-haired Spiritual Emperor operated the hacking blade once again, increasing the speed of the flying sword by three times.

In the blink of an eye, he had already arrived in front of Song Shuhang's silver puppet dragon!

"You can't escape from me, kid," the red-haired Spiritual Emperor said in a grave tone. Then, he made another grabbing motion with his hand.

To deal with Song Shuhang and the Fourth Stage Innate Yu Jiaojiao, the red-haired Spiritual Emperor didn't even need to use magical techniques—his hand alone was enough.

This time, Song Shuhang had no means to block the big hand of the opposite party. The silver dragon puppet and the space capsule were both seized by it.

Song Shuhang and the others had been captured.

Actually, it was Song Shuhang's first time being captured by an enemy. It was a new and refreshing feeling!

❄️❄️❄️

"Hehe, I told that you had no chance of escaping." The red-haired Spiritual Emperor grinned after capturing Song Shuhang. Then, he stretched his hand out and activated a spherical barrier-type magical treasure, confining Song Shuhang within it.

The insides of the spherical barrier-type magical treasure were filled with air.

Therefore, the sound of the phone ringing was transmitted from Song Shuhang's body. "Ring, ring, ring~"

Song Shuhang calmed down and asked, "Senior, why did you capture me?"

Since he had been captured already, he might as well ask why the opposite party had done so...

After all, it was impossible that he had decided to capture him just because he found him unpleasant or something of the sort, right?

Actually, Song Shuhang wasn't worried about his life or safety. Venerable White's Ten Thousand Mile Flying Escape Technique was a very strong life-saving trump card.

The red-haired Spiritual Emperor strangely smiled and said, "Hehe, I need something that is on your body—"

"Ring, ring, ring~" The ring of the phone interrupted the words of the red-haired Spiritual Emperor.

The red-haired Spiritual Emperor continued after the pause, "I need something that is on your body. That thing is—"

"Ring, ring, ring~"

"..." The red-haired Spiritual Emperor.

"Senior, can I answer the phone first?" Song Shuhang said as he took out his phone.

After looking at the screen, he discovered that it was a call from Senior Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue.

It was actually Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue!

Before Song Shuhang set out, Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue said that he would contact him and bring him to explore the grave of Venerable Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue after he had arrived in space. Therefore, he gave Song Shuhang his number so that they could stay in touch.

Song Shuhang hadn't expected to receive his call so quickly.

"Senior Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue, hello." Song Shuhang answered the phone. Shuhang thought that the red-haired Spiritual Emperor would make him hang up. He didn't expect that the opposite party would actually let him answer the phone.

The calm voice of a man was transmitted from the other end of the phone. "Little friend Shuhang, are you in space already?"

"Senior, yes. Fairy Firefly sent me to space today," Song Shuhang replied.

Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue said, "Where are you now? Have you reached the moon already? If you are there already here, look for me. My coordinates are XX:XX."

"About that… I fear I won't be able to meet you, Senior. I was captured," Song Shuhang replied.

"..." Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue.

"Who captured you?" Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue asked.

"I don't know him, but he's a Fifth Stage Spiritual Emperor. He has red hair, red beard, and a red daoist robe," Song Shuhang said.

"I have never heard of such a Spiritual Emperor," Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue said. "Little friend Shuhang, put the phone on speakerphone mode and let me have a chat with him."

"Sure, Senior." Song Shuhang raised his head and looked at the red-haired Spiritual Emperor, putting the phone on speakerphone.

Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue voice was transmitted from the phone. "Fellow Daoist, my name is Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue. I wanted to ask you something, how has this little friend offended you?"

Song Shuhang was the first one to reply, "I haven't ever seen him before, how can I have offended him?"

The red-haired Spiritual Emperor pondered for a moment and said, "This kid has indeed not offended me."

Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue said, "Such being the case, can you give me face and let this little friend go? If you do that, I'll turn a blind eye to everything that happened."

"Pfff~" The red-haired Spiritual Emperor laughed and said, "Who do you think you are? Why should I give you face?"

The red-haired Spiritual Emperor pondered for a while but couldn't think of any famous person in the world of cultivators that went by the name of 'Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue'. A guy he had never heard of was unexpectedly putting on airs in front of him?

He even said that he would 'turn a blind eye to everything that happened'. Just hearing these words, was enough to put someone in a bad mood.

Moreover, even if the opposite party was an old senior of the world of cultivators, the red-haired Spiritual Emperor wasn't afraid of him.

After all, he only had to snatch the Soul Devouring Demonic Gourd and flee. The space was so big, what were the chances of not finding a good place to hide? At the time, he would hide in a safe place for a hundred or so years and wait until his cultivation had advanced to the Sixth Stage True Monarch Realm. Afterward, he could finally move unhindered in the world.

Song Shuhang said with a smile, "Senior Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue, the opposite party said that your face isn't worth much and asked why he should give you any."

Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue coughed and said, "You didn't recognize me?"

The red-haired Spiritual Emperor ignored Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue and said to Song Shuhang, "Kid, hang up the phone."

Song Shuhang said, "Senior Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue, I have to hang up, goodbye."

Afterward, he obediently switched the phone off.

Then, he raised his head and looked at the red-haired Spiritual Emperor once more. At this time, there was a hint of compassion in Song Shuhang's eyes. This guy had offended Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue...

"Kid, I don't care about your background. Obediently hand over that treasure!" the red-haired Spiritual Emperor said in a grave tone.

Although he wasn't afraid of that 'senior' the opposite party talked to on the phone, it was better to avoid unnecessary trouble if possible. That senior said he was currently on the moon. He was pretty close to their position and might come over very quickly.

He didn't have much time.

"What treasure?" Song Shuhang asked in puzzlement. He had several treasures with him. How could he know which treasure the other party wanted?

"Don't play dumb. If you want to leave this place alive, immediately hand over that treasure that can attract the Soul Devouring Demonic Gourd and the sword light," the red-haired Spiritual Emperor said coldly. He wasn't really a bloodthirsty person. If Song Shuhang cooperated, he would at most seriously injure him and let him go.

❄️❄️❄️

Just as the red-haired Spiritual Emperor was interrogating Song Shuhang, in the depths of the space, the sword light of a disposable flying sword rushed in Song Shuhang's direction as though it had been attracted by something.
