Immortality Starts From Making Money.-Chapter 284: Life and Death Ride.

Outside the capital, a group of carriages were racing at extreme speed. The Cloud Chase Horses cut through the wind like a cold, precise blade.

Tension gripped everyone’s heart.

Inside the Dust Valley Sect elder carriage, the elders wore confused expressions.

They knew something important must have happened for them to leave so urgently.

Moreover, they were leaving the central region, returning to their own territory.

What could possibly have happened?

"Supreme Elder Zhao, please tell us what is going on," Elder Duan Jie asked in a low voice.

Supreme Elder Zhao looked at her with cold eyes. "Don’t you know when to keep quiet?" he snapped.

Everyone was already on edge, and she still couldn’t read the room.

Hiss!

All the elders were stunned. This was the first time they had ever seen the Supreme Elder berate another elder.

Supreme Elder Zhao might be hot-tempered, but he respected others and did not use his position to oppress them.

But now...

Elder Duan Jie was stunned. She blinked twice, and her jaw slightly dropped.

Looking at her stunned expression, all the elders couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.

All the questions and confusions in their hearts vanished into thin air. From Supreme Elder Zhao’s action, even a fool could see the situation was direr than they thought.

Elder Bai Delan, Elder Luo Zhen, and Elder Li Huang, who were closer to Mo Jian, already knew what was going on and were not surprised by Supreme Elder Zhao’s outburst.

They were already on edge.

Suddenly, the carriage came to a halt.

"Follow me." Supreme Elder Zhao commanded and left the carriage hurriedly.

Under the deep, dark sky, everyone could feel the oppressive atmosphere. Even though they were in the middle of an empty grassland, they could feel the thick tension, their skin crawling with uneasiness.

The disciples were not allowed to step out.

Mo Jian and Zhao Tian walked side by side, each with a grave expression.

"Where are they?" Zhao Tian asked with irritation and annoyance, all stemming from the deep fear in his heart.

The Sect Master and his wife also came down. They looked at their son with grave expressions. This time, they did not question him. They waited patiently for Mo Jian to speak.

Apart from them, the Frost Moon Sect Master, Nine Mountain Sect Master, Wind Spirit Sect Master, and the Southern Governor all came out of their carriages.

They looked at Mo Jian with grave expressions.

"Young Master, why are we stopping?" the Governor asked.

Mo Jian looked at the Governor and asked, "Governor, where is your Lightning Wind Carriage?"

Hmm?

The Governor was stunned for a moment before a look of realization appeared on his face.

"I kept it near Lingyang City. It is along the way."

When the Frost Moon Sect Master and the Nine Mountain Sect Master heard the Lightning Wind Carriage, they knew the situation had turned into a life-or-death struggle.

"My Lightning Wind Carriage is also near Lingyang City," the Wind Spirit Sect Master chuckled, breathing a sigh of relief.

This was the reason why he had gone out to buy the Noble Grade Lightning Wind Carriage—for a moment like this.

Previously, it was merely speculation, but who knew those devils would act?

"Good. I hope you will all have the chance to switch it during our escape," Mo Jian said truthfully.

The reports they were receiving from the Southern and Western Regions were not encouraging at all.

Just then, they saw a bright light coming from the distance. Instantly, everyone tensed up.

With the Evil Sect on the loose, they were pushed to the edge.

"Relax, they are my people."

Huh!

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and lowered their hands from the hilts of their weapons.

"Young Master..."

Lone Spear and the old Withered Old Man stepped forward with their team. Both Lone Spear and the Old Withered Old Man were already at the half-step Golden Core stage.

Not only them, but there were also a few others like them in the teams.

Looking at them, Mo Jian and Zhao Tian breathed a sigh of relief.

"Young Master, we hope we did not disappoint you," the Old Withered Man said with a faint smile.

"You did well," Mo Jian replied with a sigh of relief. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

Their escape depended on their mission. If they had failed, their survival would have hung by a thread.

"Zhao Tian, get to work. We need to leave this place immediately."

"Yes, Young Master." Zhao Tian nodded and left with large strides.

Mo Jian turned to his parents. "Father, Mother, please follow Zhao Tian."

"Very well. If you need our assistance, don’t hesitate to let us know," his father said as they quickly followed Zhao Tian.

The four from the southern region were stunned when they saw the complete form of the carriage.

"T-This..." The Nine Mountain Sect Master sucked in a cold breath.

"Noble Grade Lightning Wind Carriage," the Governor said in a low, trembling voice.

There were ten Noble Grade Lightning Wind Carriages standing before them, imposing.

"As expected of the Thousand Wealth Chamber..." the Frost Moon Sect Master muttered.

Her emotion was taut; with the threat of the Evil Sect, she did not know whether she and her sect could return to the Southern Region in one piece.

For the Dust Valley Sect, seeing the imposing Lightning Wind Carriage for the first time, they were left speechless.

"What are you doing?" Elder Bai berated. "Get inside, or you will be left behind."

Huh!

A few minutes later, everyone had settled into a Lightning Wind Carriage. Mo Jian looked at the Frost Moon Sect Master and the Nine Mountain Sect Master.

"You two owe me... You can use the two carriages."

"Ah! Thank you," the Frost Moon Sect Master said in relief.

"Young Master, I’ll never forget this," the Nine Mountain Sect Master added seriously.

Watching this, the Governor wore an unsightly expression on his face but recovered quickly. The Wind Spirit Sect Master did not show any change in his expression. His sect also had one, and he was not jealous.

"Remember, this is a life-or-death ride. We either make it or perish," Mo Jian said in a grave voice and walked toward his carriage.

Quickly, the Frost Moon Sect and Nine Mountain Sect Masters moved their disciples into the Lightning Wind Carriage.

Although it would be overcrowded for their population, no one cared.

"Depart!" Mo Jian commanded.

"I hope we can make it in one piece." He thought. Even with the Noble Grade Lightning Wind Carriage, his mind was not at peace.
