Chapter 1925: Green Cloud County Governor
Translator: Legge
After purging the poison from Su Zimo’s leg, the snow-white butterfly circled around him a few more times, lingering uncertainly as though it was hesitant.
Although the snow-white butterfly did not say anything, Su Zimo could sense some anxiety and worry from it.
This butterfly was so strong—what was it worried about?
Su Zimo’s heart skipped a beat as he recalled some of the conversations from before.
The Green Cloud County Governor was even here personally for this spirit mine incident!
He was a Perfected Immortal expert.
However, the snow-white butterfly had just awakened and had yet to recover its strength completely. It should be worried about the Green Cloud County Governor.
Su Zimo naturally hoped that the snow-white butterfly could stay by his side.
With such an ancient living being as a companion, he could even head to the entire Green Cloud County, let alone Glass City.
However, Su Zimo knew very well that this snow-white butterfly would definitely become a public enemy after its awakening!
The power of the entire Green Cloud County would come and encircle it!
At that time, even he might be destroyed by that power, let alone the snow-white butterfly!
As Su Zimo pondered, the snow-white butterfly flapped its wings and floated into the distance, disappearing into the mine before long.
Su Zimo still felt a sense of disappointment when he saw the butterfly leave.
Die Yue’s true form was the butterfly race.
Therefore, Su Zimo could not help but have a good impression of the snow-white butterfly.
Furthermore, he guessed that the reason why the snow-white butterfly was willing to heal him might be because it sensed the aura of someone of the same race from him!
“Go on, I hope you can escape this calamity,”
Su Zimo looked in the direction of the snow-white butterfly and murmured, “I wonder if we’ll meet again in the future…”
After that battle, the mine was reduced to ruins with corpses strewn everywhere.
Among the corpses, there were some shattered ice blocks.
Those ice blocks were the corpses of the hundreds of Earth Immortal experts earlier on!
Although the temperature in the mine had returned to normal after the snow-white butterfly left for a period of time, the ice did not melt.
Su Zimo could see some storage bags through the ice.
The storage bags of hundreds of Earth Immortal experts were not a small fortune.
However, after pondering for a long time, Su Zimo decided against touching those items.
This place was not far from Glass City.
More and more powerful cultivators were rushing over.
He did not know if he could escape successfully.
If he took away the hundreds of storage bags, there was a high chance that he would cause unexpected trouble!
After checking carefully and ensuring that there was no danger ahead, Su Zimo headed outside.
…
“County Governor, you sure are capable. That Scarlet Blood Spider killed hundreds of thousands of people and nearly 10,000 of my cultivators. If not for you, the consequences would have been unimaginable,”
Outside the mine, the City Lord of Glass City, Liu Yu, bowed slightly towards a middle-aged man in long robes.
The middle-aged man had gray hair and stood motionlessly in midair with his hands behind his back. His eyes were deep and he exuded a dignified aura.
This was the Green Cloud County Governor, Perfected Immortal Jing Yue!
When Perfected Immortal Jing Yue heard that something had happened to Glass City, he used a teleportation formation to arrive here right away. The moment he attacked, he captured a Scarlet Blood Spider alive!
Perfected Immortal living beings were filled with treasures.
Even if he could not subdue the Scarlet Blood Spider, he would benefit immensely if he killed it.
Jing Yue was in no hurry to deal with the Scarlet Blood Spider. Instead, he came here.
On the other side, the armored man who managed to escape from the killing move of the snow-white butterfly had a pale expression and was describing the scene in the mine softly.
“If I’m not wrong, it should be an Ice Butterfly,”
Perfected Immortal Jing Yue said in a deep voice, “Most of the butterflies are weak and don’t pose much of a threat. However, there are also some experts among them. The strongest are from the Emperor Butterfly lineage, followed by the Ice Butterfly lineage.”
“I’m guessing that there’s a high chance this Ice Butterfly was at the Perfected One realm before it was sealed!”
Perfected One realm cultivators were Perfected Immortals!
In other words, this Ice Butterfly was once a Perfected Immortal-level living being!
Liu Yu, the armored man and the others were nervous.
Perfected Immortal Jing Yue smiled gently. “You guys don’t have to worry. This Ice Butterfly has been sealed for countless years and has just awakened. It’ll take a long time for it to recover to its peak.”
“Given the methods displayed by this Ice Butterfly, it should still be at the Heaven Immortal realm. There’s nothing to fear,”
Perfected Immortal Jing Yue said in a deep voice, “Liu Yu, spread my orders. Mobilize the guards of Glass City and the Earth Execution Guards to search for the Ice Butterfly.”
“This Ice Butterfly can’t have gone far. Report to me the moment you have any news!”
Perfected Immortal Jing Yue had set up an impenetrable trap to try his best and track down the Ice Butterfly.
Although Green Cloud County was huge, the Ice Butterfly was too obvious a target.
Unless it escaped from Green Cloud County, it would be difficult for the Ice Butterfly to avoid Perfected Immortal Jing Yue’s detection!
As though he recalled something, Liu Yu instructed one of his personal guards and whispered, “Everyone beneath the mine is dead, including hundreds of Earth Immortals.”
“Go down and tidy up the battlefield. Most importantly, retrieve the storage bags of the hundreds of Earth Immortals.”
“Understood!”
The personal guard hollered.
Perfected Immortal Jing Yue was prepared to leave as well.
Right then, he suddenly stopped in his tracks and turned around slowly. He looked at the mining area not far beneath him and frowned slightly.
“What’s wrong?”
Liu Yu asked hurriedly when he saw Perfected Immortal Jing Yue’s strange expression.
Perfected Immortal Jing Yue pointed to a mine pit not far away and asked, “That Ice Butterfly was dug out from this mine?”
“It’s absolutely true!”
The armored man said hurriedly, “Hundreds of cultivators under my lead, including Grade 9 Earth Immortals, were killed by this Ice Butterfly! There’s no mistake about it!”
“In that case, there shouldn’t be anyone alive in this mine,”
Perfected Immortal Jing Yue said softly.
“They’re definitely all dead,”
Before the armored man could speak, Liu Yu said, “The people in this mine are all lowlifes of the Black Immortal realm. There can only be ghosts remaining after such powerful living beings were dug out.”
“Ghosts?”
Perfected Immortal Jing Yue glared at the mine tunnel not far away with a fake smile.
“County Governor, you mean to say that there’s someone alive inside?”
Liu Yu asked with a puzzled expression.
Before his sentence was finished, a figure could vaguely be seen limping out of the mine.
When Su Zimo arrived at the entrance of the cave, he sensed that something was amiss!
There were many powerful auras outside!
However, at the same time, he sensed one of the strongest auras locking onto him.
At that moment, it was too late for him to retreat.
Su Zimo could only grit his teeth and walk out.
Outside the mine.
Many experts stood in the air. There were Earth Immortals, Heaven Immortals, the armored man who escaped and the City Lord of Glass City.
At that moment, all of them looked at Su Zimo in disbelief with widened eyes.
It was as though they had seen a ghost!
At the front of the figures stood a gray-haired middle-aged man who was looking at Su Zimo with interest and bright eyes.
