Chapter Fifty-two Separation
The Flying Cloud Chariot was still four or five meters above the ground when Kong Fang and Sun Hao hastily jumped out of it.
The two of them landed quickly, and Sun Hao swiftly stored the miniaturized Flying Cloud Chariot in his storage ring. The two of them then desperately fled into the dense forest. Their opponent was able to accelerate the Flying Cloud Chariot's speed by a significant amount using their magical powers, among whom there was at least one person whose strength far surpassed Sun Hao's.
Moreover, daring to lay hands on the sect's junior brother, one would normally not dare to do so without being confident.
Four or five minutes after Kong Fang and Sun Hao escaped, the white airship landed quickly on the ground. More than a dozen people jumped out of the airship, carefully examining the marks on the ground, making strange laughter.
"Two fledglings also want to escape our pursuit, what a joke." One of them sneered coldly.
Others either sneered or were indifferent, with relaxed expressions, completely disregarding Kong Fang and Sun Hao.
The big man carrying a huge knife did not leave the Hanging Cloud Ship. Upon hearing his subordinate's words, the big man cast a cold and stern glance over everyone, shouting in a chilly tone: "Shut your mouths, all of you."
The great Han was very powerful, and with one roar, all his subordinates immediately fell silent, some of whom even shrank their necks in fright.
"Listen up, all of you! Not a single one of these two can be spared. They must die here. The person who found us yesterday had the 'Thousand Mile Earth Symbol' in his hand, and he's got a big background. If we don't handle the matter he entrusted to us properly, I think you're all aware of the consequences." The burly man glared with his tiger-like eyes, cold light flashing in them.
More than a dozen subordinates shivered in unison, their relaxed expressions on their faces instantly swept away, all becoming serious.
"Leader, don't worry, those two Soul-Calling Realm juniors probably haven't even seen blood before, let alone be a match for us who have tasted blood on our blades. We will definitely bring their heads back to you."
"That's good, we're waiting for your good news." The Great Han's voice rumbled loudly. "In order to prevent them from escaping with the Cloud Chariot, I will be keeping watch in the sky. If I discover their tracks, I will also quickly notify you."
Dahan immediately controlled the white cloud boat to rise into the high sky, carefully observing above this mountain forest, searching for the traces of Kong Fang and Sun Hao.
"The leader is also making a big fuss, aren't they just two little kids who have just started practicing the way? We've all been cultivating for at least over a decade, some of us even over twenty years. Can't we take care of these two little brats with our strength?" A slightly thin man said with a smirk.
"It's better not to be careless, after all, the other party comes from a large sect, and the soul refining methods, cultivation techniques, and even the Taoist techniques they possess will not be simple. Be more careful, it's always right. Otherwise, if you lose your life, don't blame others." Another person said indifferently.
"You're being so cautious against two kids who have only cultivated for at most two years, no, it's more like you're cowardly." They hadn't even started fighting the enemy yet, but these people were already arguing with each other.
"Alright, let's just drop it. If those two kids escape, the leader will blame us and we'll be in big trouble."
The two arguing people snorted and stopped talking.
Then, a dozen or so people quickly chased into the mountain forest along the trail left by Kong Fang and Sun Hao when they escaped.
In the mountains and forests,
Kong Fang looked up at the sky, but it was blocked by the lush branches and leaves of a giant tree, making it impossible to see clearly. However, through some gaps in the leaves, Kong Fang still spotted that white cloud boat, which was wandering around in the sky, making it impossible for them to escape on the cloud boat.
"Junior brother, what should we do now?" Sun Hao was at a loss for words, having never encountered such a situation before.
Kong Fang looked around and found a pile of rocks about 20-30 meters in front of him to the left. Kong Fang quickly ran over and waved his hand, collecting all the rocks into his storage ring.
"Junior brother, what are you doing?" Sun Hao asked strangely as he caught up.
"You'll know soon, brother." Kong Fang took out seven or eight stones from his storage ring and threw them all out with a 'whoosh'.
Stones crushed grass and trees, snapped thin branches, leaving behind a trail of marks.
"Senior brother, from now on we must try not to leave any traces, otherwise with those people's experience we will definitely not be able to escape." Kong Fang reminded him, then pushed off the ground with force and jumped over several meters, rushing towards a large tree. Just as he was about to crash into the tree, Kong Fang leaned his upper body back, and his feet landed on the trunk.
With another burst of strength, Kong Fang's body instantly floated towards the next big tree. While in mid-air, Kong Fang quickly took out a few stones from his storage ring and threw them out again with force.
Sun Hao immediately followed suit, following Kong Fang from one tree to another, constantly moving forward. Every time they advanced a certain distance, Kong Fang would take out stones from his storage ring and intentionally leave some traces to confuse the pursuers.
"Junior brother, if we do this, can we completely shake off the people who are tracking us?" Sun Hao asked with a glimmer of hope and slight excitement.
"It's impossible." Kong Fang shook his head and said in a low voice, "This method will only waste more time for those people. It's not that easy to get rid of them."
Actually, if it weren't for Sun Hao following him, Kong Fang wouldn't have been so troubled. He would have directly charged forward and clashed with those people head-on. If he could win, he would fight; if not, he would put on his black armor and continue fighting. Kong Fang judged that the strongest person among those chasing them was at most at the peak of the Entering Spirit Realm, and probably hadn't reached the Ascending Spirit Realm yet. To know, once one reaches the Ascending Spirit Realm, they can fly in the air. The short-distance flight speed of an Ascending Spirit Realm cultivator is much faster than a Cloud Soaring Boat. If there was such a strong enemy among them, Kong Fang and Sun Hao wouldn't have been able to escape to the ground.
The two men stopped talking and focused on their journey. The trunks of the big trees became the place where Kong Fang and Sun Hao borrowed strength, and the two continued to move forward for several miles.
Suddenly, Kong Fang, who had been leading the way in front, stopped on a smooth boulder. After a few breaths, Sun Hao also landed beside Kong Fang.
"What's wrong, Brother Kong?" Sun Hao asked in surprise, staring at the stopped Kong Fang.
"Brother Shi, you take the Cloud Chariot and I'll go distract them. You find a place to hide first, and after I shake them off, I'll come back to look for you immediately," said Kong Fang.
"No way." Sun Hao flatly refused, his tone very firm. "Junior brother, your spiritual soul is stronger than mine, but with only half a year's time, you can't possibly refine much magical power. Moreover, you have the Earth element heavenly gift, and not even a Dao technique. How could I let you take risks? Even if we need to lure them away, it should be me who goes."
Kong Fang's face revealed a wry smile, he had confidence in dealing with those who were tracking them down, but the premise was that he could use Hei Wei. However, Hei Wei was tied to the Secret Pavilion, and the Secret Pavilion was the mysterious place that even the Sect Master of Lian Qi Zong, who was already a strong Ming Shen realm cultivator 20,000 years ago, had been tempted by.
This secret cannot be told to Sun Hao. It's not that Kong Fang doesn't trust Sun Hao, but this matter involves too many people and the fewer who know about it, the less danger Kong Fang will face.
"Brother, just trust me this once." Kong Fang persuaded with a bitter face.
"No way." Sun Hao was resolute in his disagreement.
"Big Brother." Kong Fang's voice suddenly became extremely serious, "If we continue like this, we can't shake off the people chasing us. If it drags on, the other side will be able to exhaust us to death. If I go and lure them away, at least one of us can survive. Do you want both of us to die here, with no one left to avenge us?"
Sun Hao fell silent.
"Besides, I have many methods and will definitely not let them catch me easily. Once I lure them away, I will immediately hide in the mountains and forests. When they search for me everywhere in the mountains and forests, I will use the Cloud Chariot to escape and lead them far, far away."
"No..." Sun Hao said a word, and a surge of magic power poured into his body, rendering him immobile.
"Big brother, if you don't give me the Xingyunzhou, I'll have no choice but to go back and fight them to the death. Your body is currently sealed by me, so you can't stop me." Kong Fang looked at Sun Hao.
Sun Hao's face was filled with anxiety and a hint of fear, for Kong Fang's magical powers were far stronger than his own.
"Alright then, I'll go back and fight them to the death. Since we're all going to die anyway, why not have a fierce battle and make it more enjoyable?" Kong Fang turned around and left.
Sun Hao was both moved and pained in his heart. He didn't want Kong Fang to take risks, but now he couldn't do anything about it.
He let out a sigh in his heart, and the Cloud Chariot appeared beside him.
"Junior brother, if you die, I will never refine equipment in this lifetime and I will avenge your death." Sun Hao made a vow in his heart.
Found the Flying Cloud Chariot, Kong Fang immediately grasped it in his hand.
"Senior brother, your body will recover in a minute. At that time, you find a place to hide first and wait for me to come back. I will definitely come back." Kong Fang said as he grabbed Xingyunzhou and quickly left. Kong Fang wanted to change places again using Xingyunzhou, otherwise once those enemies were led to Sun Hao, he would be in danger.
