Chapter 532: Chapter 475: If There’s Nothing Wrong, Why Are You Running?

Han Yu moved aimlessly forward, heading northwest according to the Compass.

This wretched place, the Endless Sea Domain, is still better left alone, lacking everything. If it were the old days of one Pill a day, he’d be trapped here until he died.

Moreover, everyone he can run into here is either a nemesis or someone from the Celestial Dao Sect, and he has mixed feelings about the latter.

He especially didn’t like them after Liu Zongyuan tried cooperating with him for free.

After flying for most of a two-hour, he faintly heard the sound of something breaking through the air to his right. The newcomer was fast, just like Han Yu, who was also flying at full speed.

Coincidentally, two figures approached each other from the left and right.

Duopo was astonished because he had never seen this person among the twelve of the Celestial Dao Sect, but he quickly guessed the person’s identity.

Han Yu!

After all, a powerhouse relying solely on physical strength and no cultivation is too easy to recognize. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

Before Han Yu could guess, the other party had already informed him through their actions.

Duopo neither attacked nor spoke nonsense, as soon as he saw Han Yu, he turned around and ran.

"Chase!"

The Artifact Spirit quickly said.

Han Yu was puzzled, "Why chase?"

The Artifact Spirit impatiently waved his hand, as if to say, "Isn’t it obvious? Running away at first sight must mean they have something to hide or they recognize you."

"Nonsense, why run if you’re not guilty? Just chase," the Artifact Spirit clamored.

Han Yu thought it made a bit of sense. Of course, the most important thing was that the other party fled at the sight of him, undoubtedly the weaker one. I’ve got the advantage!

In the entire Cultivator Realm, there seems to be no one else besides this duo who treats a Divine Platform Realm as a weakling.

Duopo ran seven or eight miles and inwardly heaved a sigh of relief, he genuinely didn’t want to encounter this person, even if they had never met, he didn’t want to deal with Han Yu.

His split soul suffered dealing with him, the peddler could capture him yet he managed to escape, even daring to retaliate by destroying the peddler’s island, undoubtedly a ruthless person.

He admitted that he wasn’t much stronger than his split soul, especially if he were in the peddler’s place, there’s no way he could escape, so Han Yu’s strength must surpass his.

But just as he caught his breath, the sudden sonic boom from behind startled him, and upon turning, he saw Han Yu pursuing at a horrifying speed, frightening him to the point of pushing his body technique to the limit.

Yet within a hundred breaths, the distance continued to shrink, Duopo helplessly looked back and shouted, "We have no grudge or enmity, why are you chasing me?"

"If you have nothing to hide, why did you run when you saw me?"

Han Yu retorted.

This left Duopo at a loss for words, did he have something to hide?

It seemed there was never an opportunity to do anything against Han Yu.

But did he dare to stop?

No!

Who knows if he’s in cahoots with the Celestial Dao Sect, the peddler and the doctor were clearly targeting him, but instead of catching him, they got ambushed by the Celestial Dao Sect people instead.

So Duopo undoubtedly had to flee, daring not to stop.

"Think you can run? That’s not up to you."

Seeing that the distance was almost closed, Han Yu briefly burst forth, with a huge force propelling him even faster.

Duopo almost popped his eyes out, trying to go faster but reaching his limit, not long after, as an iron-tight grip grabbed him from behind, his face turned pale.

Heart and soul seizing Duopo!

Unwillingly, he flailed backward, his palm turning into countless afterimages in Han Yu’s eyes, momentarily dizzying.

Seizing the opportunity, Duopo suddenly thrust his palm into Han Yu’s embrace.

Crack!

Han Yu was unfazed, it was Duopo’s split soul whose hand was sent flying by the counter force.

Such an exceptional body!

Duopo’s expression changed, as he tried to break free while Han Yu was not yet back to his senses, only to find the hand gripping his shoulder was like lead, immovable.

"Wake up, quickly!"

In the Sea of Consciousness, the Artifact Spirit shook the bottle from underneath, stirring the Sea of Consciousness into turmoil.

A sharp pain flashed through Han Yu’s mind, instantly bringing him back to focus. Just in time, he saw the bewildered look of the other party trying to break free, and with a dark expression, he threw a punch.

Smack!

This punch was delivered with no frills, but for Duo Po, it felt like his entire head was filled with the clanging of bells and drums, a cacophony of chaos.

Simply put, this punch nearly knocked the head of a Divine Platform Realm expert askew.

Seeing Han Yu raise his fist again, Duo Po gritted his teeth and raised his hands in rage.

"I surrender!"

Bang!

Yet he still firmly received another punch, this time with even greater force, visibly denting the other half of his head.

"Even after I surrendered, you’re still hitting me?"

Duo Po turned back with extreme grievance, meeting Han Yu’s big rolling eyes.

Surrendering with such flair made him think the opponent was preparing a big move.

"You’re not taking that punch in vain."

Duo Po was deeply aggrieved, having no choice but to gaze at his opponent.

Han Yu held him in one hand, looking around, but couldn’t find a spot to land.

This broken place was most annoying in this regard; it’s nothing but sea everywhere.

Helpless, he had to carry the man down to the sea, conjuring a small patch of land for the two of them to stand on, then using his Water Divine Power to support it from below.

This display almost made Duo Po’s eyes pop out; Fire Divine Power, Earth Divine Power, Water Divine Power—what the Holy Sect couldn’t achieve, this guy did it effortlessly.

"No wonder the peddler and they went crazy trying to catch you."

Duo Po spoke in shock, his eyes wide.

Just bringing Han Yu back with this display alone, the merits of which were unimaginable.

"How did you do it? Innate Divine Techniques can’t be artificially created afterward?"

They knew this well; it’s not just innate Divine Techniques, even techniques that could be acquired couldn’t be wielded simultaneously by a single person, otherwise, peddler wouldn’t have devised such clever tricks.

However, before he could finish his question, Han Yu gave him a hard knock on the head.

Han Yu pulled back his hand, annoyed. "Am I the one interrogating you, or are you interrogating me?"

Seeing Duo Po holding his head in fear and anger, not daring to speak, Han Yu opened his mouth, "Why did you run when you saw me?"

This question was asked as if the man had clashed with the Holy Sect from start to finish; how could he not run?

Moreover, wherever this guy was, the Celestial Dao Sect followed. Who knew if there were people tailing behind?

"Wasn’t I afraid you’d come to catch me after grabbing those two peddlers?"

"We? Who’s ’we’?"

Han Yu was confused. When did he go after those peddlers?

Duo Po looked at him incredulously. "Weren’t you collaborating with the Celestial Dao Sect to ambush us on the way back to the Central Continent?"

Han Yu’s face darkened. What did this have to do with him? The only time he met Liu Zongyuan was a while ago; how could he have colluded with the Celestial Dao Sect?

He had Duo Po explain the situation clearly. Naturally, Duo Po didn’t dare hide anything and quickly recapped the events after the peddler and he escaped.

When he heard that the damned peddler was looking for help to deal with him, Han Yu’s expression turned grim.

And when he heard how the three were blocked on the must-pass route to the Central Continent by the Celestial Dao Sect instead of himself, his expression grew even more peculiar.

A misunderstanding existed here; it seemed Duo Po was unaware of the fact that the split soul was captured by the Celestial Dao Sect. Thus, he assumed Han Yu was in league with them.

But the split soul did mess up; right after Han Yu left, this bastard sold him to the Celestial Dao Sect.

It was only because he impulsively detoured that he managed to inadvertently avoid both parties.

"So, you didn’t actually collaborate with the Celestial Dao Sect, and the peddlers were just unlucky to meet them?"

Duo Po pieced together a bit of truth from Han Yu’s confusion, but not much.

Han Yu considered for a moment about whether to sell out the split soul but eventually decided against it.

The quality of the Celestial Dao Sect aside, the Corpse Refining Lineage certainly couldn’t end things well with him, keeping the split soul could be useful for troubling them continuously, hoping they’d fight and tear each other apart.

Moreover, selling out the split soul would mean releasing Duo Po intact, which seemed too cheap.

Duo Po was still mourning the peddler and the doctor; if it wasn’t a conspiracy, how unlucky must they have been to run into their enemies?

Han Yu was silent for a moment, asking the same question he had previously asked the split soul, "What should I do with you?"

Duo Po initially wanted to suggest releasing him, but before he could speak, a chilling voice whispered in his ear.

"How about I cripple you and sink you into the sea?"
