Swoosh! Swoosh!
About a hundred miles north of Xuri City, two figures were rapidly approaching - a man and a woman. As they drew closer, who could they be if not Yun Xiao and the red-dressed young girl Xiaolan?
"Hey, this place isn’t bad. It’s indeed a fine spot for a kill and plunder!"
Yun Xiao looked around, nodding contentedly, leaving Xiaolan puzzled beside him. How could he be so sure that Gong Qizhen would pursue them?
Moreover, if it weren’t for her, how could he, with his Peak ridian Rushing Realm prowess, handle the Late Stage ridian Union Realm Pavilion Master from Treasure Pavilion, especially since Gong Qizhen might not be alone?
"If Gong Qizhen arrives, there’s no need for you to make a move!"
With a thought passing in her mind, Xiaolan spoke solemnly. Being at the Late Stage of ridian Union herself, she believed handling a fellow cultivator of her level from a border town would pose no problems.
"I would like to, but I’m afraid it’s not up to us!"
Yun Xiao’s gaze shifted towards the south. The rising dust there clearly indicated that the pursuers were nearing. He smiled faintly, which prompted Xiaolan to imdiately turn her gaze in that direction.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh...
Monts later, several figures appeared not far from them, two of which were quite familiar to Yun Xiao and Xiaolan.
"Pavilion Master Gong, they say a ten-mile escort is courteous, but you have chased us for over a hundred miles, I’m truly flattered!"
Facing a Late Stage ridian Union Realm powerhouse with only his Peak ridian Rushing Realm cultivation, Yun Xiao exhibited no fear but spoke with a jovial and mocking tone.
"This pair, indeed, are accomplices!"
Catching up close, Gong Qizhen, seeing Yun Xiao and Xiaolan together, had his suspicions confird and felt fortunate for having convinced Qiao Lin to tag along, as it could have been troubleso otherwise.
Despite her young age, Xiaolan had reached the Late Stage of ridian Union Realm. Facing such a prodigious and monstrous talent, Gong Qizhen wasn’t fully confident of his victory.
But having Qiao Lin, who was at the Early Stage of ridian Union Realm, Gong Qizhen believed that as long as he could hold off Xiaolan, Qiao Lin dealing with a Peak ridian Rushing Realm Yun Xiao shouldn’t be troubleso.
Besides, besides those two at ridian Union Realm, there were several guards who also were at the Peak of ridian Rushing Realm. He believed that Yun Xiao today absolutely could not escape.
"Gong Qizhen, you’ve got so nerve, selling fake goods to ! I think from today onwards, your Treasure Pavilion need not open for business!"
Though slightly underestimating their situation, seeing Gong Qizhen ignited rage within Xiaolan who imdiately rebuked him furiously, her voice loaded with intense hatred.
"Oh? The young lady has good eyesight to have discovered so quickly!"
In this advantageous situation, Gong Qizhen didn’t deny it, since today this man and woman would not leave alive anyway. Who else except Qiao Lin, who shared the sa shady mind, would reveal his devious thoughts?
But what Gong Qizhen didn’t expect was that the Jade Liquid Vine, so well hidden, would be discovered so quickly, only realizing it when he saw the mocking smile on Yun Xiao’s face.
Even if he looked down on Yun Xiao’s ridian Qi Cultivation, Gong Qizhen had to admit that he admired the youth’s keen insight. If possible, he truly wished to cripple Yun Xiao’s ridian Qi and imprison him in the Treasure Pavilion to appraise treasures for life.
"It really is you! Co and face your death!"
As Gong Qizhen didn’t deny it, Xiaolan’s anger exploded instantly. This was, strictly speaking, a vendetta for the murder of her mother; if she could tolerate this, she would be unworthy as a daughter.
Boom!
A formidable aura erupted from Xiaolan, shocking even Yun Xiao. He knew that without drawing upon the power of the Golden Snake Worm, even using all his abilities, he probably couldn’t contend with this red-dressed girl.
Although they were similar in age, her ridian Qi Cultivation likely surpassed even the talents Yue Qi and Mo Qing of the Jade Pot Sect, approaching the levels of Xuanyue Crown Prince Xuan Jiuding.
Facing such a peer at the sa level, Gong Qizhen didn’t dare to slack off. As his ridian Qi surged, he shouted, "Qiao Lin, brother, quickly take care of that Yun Xiao!"
It seed that Gong Qizhen wasn’t fully confident in defeating Xiaolan, only hoping that Qiao Lin could handle Yun Xiao in a few moves, then join him, ensuring no secrets of their plunder would be leaked.
This was exactly what Qiao Lin wanted; he was indeed a bit wary of a Late Stage ridian Union Realm cultivator like Xiaolan, but a re Peak ridian Rushing Realm Yun Xiao would be easy to capture.
At this mont, Qiao Lin thoroughly recalled how Yun Xiao made him lose face at the Treasure Pavilion; he was already thinking about how to make this disrespectful young man wish he were dead once captured.
’Surround that boy!’
Not paying heed to the high-level battle erupting nearby, Qiao Lin’s eyes focused on Yun Xiao alone. Yet, he remained cautious against Yun Xiao’s escape, unashadly employing overwhelming numbers.
Upon hearing the command, Qiao Lin’s own two guards, along with two from the Treasure Pavilion, a total of four Peak ridian Rushing Realm Cultivators, instantly swooped out, encircling Yun Xiao in their midst.
"Hmph, you think these chickens and dogs can stop ?"
Seeing this, Yun Xiao scoffed coldly. You should know that he is now at the peak of the ridian Rushing Realm, and his combat power is many tis stronger than that of ordinary cultivators of the sa level.
Rember how even Yue Qi, who was at the Mid Stage of ridian Union Realm, after exhausting all his techniques, ended up in a miserable state? Moreover, at that ti, Yun Xiao did not even rely on the power of the Golden Snake Worm.
In Yun Xiao’s view, these cultivators who were also at the peak of the ridian Rushing Realm were rely chickens and dogs, easily dealt with by a flick of the fingers. Seeing that the red-robed maiden was already gaining so upper hand, he was pleased to toy with these fools.
"You’re asking for death!"
Being called chickens and dogs was intolerable, and one of Qiao Lin’s guards who had scolded Yun Xiao at the Treasure Pavilion couldn’t hold back anymore and charged at Yun Xiao with a loud shout.
The attack, like an eagle’s claw ridian Technique, was indeed impressively powerful, but unfortunately, he had chosen the wrong opponent, and his fate was destined to be quite miserable.
Bang!
To such an attack, Yun Xiao didn’t even spare a glance; he simply stretched out his right foot and delivered a cunning whip kick directly onto the guard’s left ribs, producing a loud sound.
Although Yun Xiao did not exert the Ancestor Vein Power in his right leg for this kick, the force of this leg, which possessed Ancestor Vein, was trendously shocking.
What seed like a light kick directly broke several of the guard’s ribs, and his body flew backward, spurting mouthfuls of fresh blood mid-air, evidently not going to survive.
Yun Xiao was not a great benefactor; those who sought his life must be prepared to be killed. Kicking one to death with one foot was rely a trivial matter for him.
"Hmm?"
The sudden kick not only made the other three Peak ridian Rushing Realm guards step back but also greatly shocked Qiao Lin who was at the Early Stage of ridian Union Realm.
What he thought was an easy-to-handle little rabbit turned out to be a tiger in disguise. Killing a Peak ridian Rushing Realm cultivator with one kick was sothing even Qiao Lin himself could achieve, but definitely not with such ease as Yun Xiao did.
"You’re not as simple as you seem, boy!"
Qiao Lin put away his contempt, and although he spoke these words, the murderous intent was not hidden in the slightest. Since they had already beco enemies, it had to be a fight to the death.
"It doesn’t matter if you underestimated or not; your fate won’t be any better than his!"
Yun Xiao retracted his right leg, turned his head slightly, and smiled lightly. His voice was soft, but the disdain in his words was crystal clear, instantly infuriating Qiao Lin.
This guy had been causing trouble for him since the front of the Treasure Pavilion. Now that such an opportunity had arisen, Yun Xiao did not mind settling the score, taking the life that had been delivered to his doorstep.
"How arrogant, boy!"
Unable to contain his anger, Qiao Lin let out a loud shout. His charging action was identical to the previously ntioned guard, only his power was many tis stronger.
ridian Union Realm and ridian Rushing Realm were fundantally different levels; aside from freaks like Yun Xiao, those who could fight across levels were all suprely talented elites from major empires.
In fact, even those super talents of the empires could only barely manage to fight across ranks, let alone defeat soone like Yue Qi who was two realms higher in a straightforward combat as Yun Xiao did. That was simply impossible.
Thus, deep-rooted in Qiao Lin’s mind, even after Yun Xiao had kicked his guard to death, he wasn’t too worried, after all, he was a cultivator at the Early Stage of ridian Union.
Facing a ridian Union Realm cultivator like Qiao Lin, Yun Xiao obviously could not respond as before, but his strength had significantly improved since the ti of the Spiritual Chick Battle List.
Moreover, after the battle with Yue Qi, he had beco much clearer about the techniques of ridian Union Realm cultivators. Therefore, Qiao Lin, who was rely at the Early Stage of ridian Union, was not taken seriously by him at all.
Swoosh!
Yun Xiao moved suddenly, vanishing from his spot like a phantom. The speed startled Qiao Lin, but just as he beca alert and tried to spot Yun Xiao’s true form, all the hairs on his body stood up.
"Oh no!"
A sense of unease surged through him. Soon after, Qiao Lin felt several major points on his back being successively hit at an incredibly fast speed, leaving him no chance to dodge.
"Small Golden Light Pulse Array, explode!"
A low shout ca from behind Qiao Lin, followed by intense pain from his back as if sothing had scorched it, even bringing with it the scent of cooking at.
At this mont, Qiao Lin had no interest in slling the scent of his own flesh. He didn’t need to look to know that Yun Xiao had employed so technique, turning his back into a bloody ss, and in just a move, he was already injured.
