Chapter 92: Qinglongwei and Huawuxie
In a dense forest, a gray figure leaned against the trunk of a large tree, panting heavily, with a pale face and a serious expression, occasionally looking back, treading on the partially melted snow-covered ground, letting the snowflakes fall from the sky, seemingly impervious to the cold.
"What a close call, I finally escaped, but this Wind Magnetic Escape Technique is too consuming of my mental energy!" The speaker was Shi Sheng, who didn't dare to escape along the way home, but instead fled in another direction to avoid being caught up by Huo Wei.
"But if it weren't for the Wind Magnetic Escape Technique, I'm afraid it would have been dangerous. Not only could I not attack Huo Wei, but also relying solely on my Lingkong Body Method, it's uncertain whether I can escape or not!" Shi Sheng said with some trepidation, feeling that Yuan Heyu's strength was really too powerful.
Suddenly thought of something, Shi Sheng's eyes narrowed: "Right, I had a feeling that something was off before, and now I remember, how could ordinary people from Gu Huai Village find the Tian Xuan Sect of the Xiū Niàn Zhě door?"
"Could it be that someone has tricked Elder Sister Yu out? This is not good, Elder Sister Yu might be in danger." Shi Sheng became somewhat worried and didn't dare to delay any longer. He hastily left the dense forest and rushed towards the direction of his home.
Whoosh!
Several loud noises pierced the air, and Shi Sheng suddenly raised his head to look up. His eyes twitched involuntarily as he saw a golden dragon, over ten zhang in size, shaking its head and swinging its tail among the white clouds in the sky. With flames spewing from its mouth, it swooped down towards an old man in red robes with a loud whoosh.
An old man in a red robe stepped on colorful clouds, his sleeve robes stroked once, and a gleaming crystal shield appeared in front of him. With the wind blowing fiercely, it suddenly expanded to several meters in size. A fierce flame dragon pounced on it, and with a loud bang, it burst open, and flames filled the sky everywhere.
The sky temperature soared, the white snow on the ground melted, and even the snowflakes in the sky disappeared instantly. The withered trees burst into flames one by one, the rumbling sound was deafening, a high peak collapsed instantly, and the earth shook!
"Hmph!" The red-robed old man let out a stifled grunt, his face paling as he was struck and fell to the ground with a thud, landing near Shi Sheng. His body stumbled, almost unable to stand upright.
Shi's face changed color, when had he ever seen such a mountain collapse and earth split formation? This was absolutely a disaster!
Who is the old man in red? How can he have such terrifying power? What level has he reached? Shi Sheng didn't have time to think much, his first thought was to leave immediately, otherwise, with just a flick of their fingers, he might not even be left with bone fragments.
"Halt!"
At this moment, the red-robed old man stretched out his hand and grabbed it. Shi Sheng immediately felt his body stiffen, and he completely lost consciousness. He didn't even have the strength to move his fingers, let alone make any other movements except for breathing and blinking.
Whoosh!
Shi Sheng's body involuntarily flew into the air, and finally landed in the hands of the red-robed old man. The red-robed old man firmly grasped one of Shi Sheng's arms, and Shi Sheng felt a darkness before his eyes, and couldn't help but silently curse, how could he also fall for this? Who provoked whom? What did this old freak want to do? A jumbled mess of thoughts flooded into Shi Sheng's mind.
"Cough, cough... Senior, junior is just passing by..." Shi Sheng's words had not finished, when suddenly a flame rolled in mid-air, and two young men wearing cyan dragon-patterned armor, with an aura of murder, flashed out.
The two men were about the same age, probably twenty-six or seven years old. One had fair skin and the other slightly darker skin. As soon as they took a step forward, Shi Sheng felt a blur in front of his eyes, and the two young men suddenly appeared opposite him.
"Let him go, he's done nothing wrong!" The pale young man said with a serious face. The dark-skinned young man furrowed his brow and looked thoughtful.
"Hmph, Qinglong Guards, the most righteous warriors of the Great Ming Empire. You want to kill me? I'll take down this young man first and let the empire lose a promising young talent from the Huahai realm. Let's see if you're truly righteous or just hypocrites!" The red-robed old man, known as Hua Wuxie, raised an eyebrow and revealed a cold smile.
"The cultivators below the Sea of Consciousness are the foundation of our great Ming country, and we have always prohibited killing. I, Ma Heng, will not watch him die!" The white-clad young man who called himself Ma Heng's face turned serious.
"Haha, that's great!" The old man in red robes stroked his white beard.
The dark youth narrowed his eyes: "Hua Wu Xie, you indiscriminately kill the innocent and harm low-ranking cultivators to refine evil treasures. Everyone will condemn you, don't think that just because someone is holding us hostage, we can't do anything to you."
"So as not to let you harm more people, I have no choice but to sacrifice this little brother!" As he spoke, the dark youth's sleeve fluttered and he made a move to strike.
"Zhou Tie, what do you mean by this? Have you forgotten the duties of our Qinglong Guard? What's the difference between doing this and being an evil cultivator?" A white-clad young man, Ma Heng, hastily blocked Zhou Tie.
"Hmph, kill him and we can get a reward when we return. Duty? Heh heh, you should think about the purpose of being a Qinglong Guard, isn't it to obtain more resources? Don't stop me!" A red light flashed before Zhou Tie's body, and a red brick shot out.
Bang!
Not waiting for the flower to emerge, Ma Heng's face turned serious, and with a wave of his hand, a flying sword shot out from his palm, immediately blocking the red brick.
"Zhou Tie, you've forgotten the duties of the Qinglong Guard just to gain merit..." Ma Heng's words were cut off by a loud rumbling sound, as thick bolts of lightning shot out in front of them.
"Higher-order Thunderclap, not good!" Zhou Tie's face changed color, and he flashed towards the rear with Ma Heng, immediately retreating wildly. The nearby mud splashed, the ground collapsed, and the crackling sound continued uninterrupted.
"Quickly chase!" Ma Heng shouted, and together with Zhou Tie, they put away their treasures and immediately gave chase.
Three days later, on the edge of Xiangyang Prefecture, above a lake, a red figure appeared, holding a gray-robed youth in his hand. In an instant, he flew over the lake and headed towards Xiangyuan Prefecture.
"Senior, the people behind can't keep up, let go of your junior, otherwise, your junior is simply a burden to you!" The gray-robed youth was Shi Sheng. He looked down at the ground below and couldn't help but feel dizzy for a moment. Although he could also fly in mid-air, no matter how high or fast, it was simply not on the same level as this old monster, differing by tens of thousands of miles.
"So I'll let you go now?" Hua Wuxie asked with a sly smile.
"No!" Shi Sheng's heart sank, knowing that falling from this height would be certain death. His magnetic suspension technique was not yet advanced enough to save him. As he listened to the rushing wind on both sides and looked down at the rapidly moving landscape below, Shi Sheng felt that he had already left the boundaries of Xiangyang Prefecture. He recognized that this place was within the borders of Xiangyuan Prefecture, but for some reason, he suddenly became worried about Lin Wan'er back home.
"Not good!" Hua Wuxie's face sank, as if she had sensed something. She hastily swallowed a dan pill and her body surface lit up with a burst of red light, increasing her flying speed by nearly a third. This made Shi Sheng even more tense, thinking that the old monster would either let him go or toss him down. Although he had always envied others for being able to fly, he didn't want to experience it in this way.
"The flower is not evil, let that little brother go, you can't escape!" Just then, Shi Sheng suddenly discovered two sharp and piercing lights behind him, chasing towards the red-robed old man at an incredibly fast speed. It was Ma Heng and Zhou Tie, the two men. Shi Sheng couldn't help but feel a surge of joy in his heart, and suddenly found that his hands and feet could move freely! (End of this chapter, next chapter is even more exciting!)
