Chapter 68: Dig three feet underground, and I will still dig him out!

  "Hmm"

  Several gusts of wind swept through, quickly passing over the dark sky above Linzhou, and then quietly landed on the rooftop across from Xu Yu's residence like falling leaves.

  After landing, the first thin middle-aged man suddenly cancelled the light shield attached to Feng Mu Zhe's body, and then looked around with some surprise.

  "Huh? Where's Season Junior Brother?"

  Not only was the slender middle-aged man somewhat astonished, but a man who had just stood up beside him also gave a strange glance around and directly emitted a vast divine sense.

  But after a thorough search, there was no gain, and the doubt in the man's eyes grew bigger.

  "The window opposite."

  It was at this moment that the slender middle-aged man suddenly moved, pointing to the opposite side. Even in the dark of night, his sharp eyes locked onto the room on the other side with the missing window, and the originally clean wall.

  "It's bad, it has a bloody smell!"

  "Has something happened to Young Master Ji?"

  "That person was indeed not at the Lin's house, maybe he really just temporarily went out and happened to come back, being discovered by Season Shidi who was guarding here."

  ……

  As middle-aged eyes sparkled, the others also quickly discovered the inappropriateness of the opposite side, and even at this time, there was still a faint smell of blood.

  In an instant, everyone who had been searching around the Lin family in secret and had found nothing, looked somewhat anxious.

  Under the feet of that lean middle-aged man, another flash of light suddenly rose again, and with a whoosh, it flew to the opposite side. Seeing this, the others no longer hesitated and swooped over in a flash.

  Through the empty window frame without glass, after entering the room, the five monks all fell silent.

  Bloodstains on the wall, a smudge of charred ash on the kitchen floor. Whatever way you look at it, this place was the scene of a fierce struggle not long ago.

  But what about the result?

  If it's said that the outcome of the battle was Qiu Meng's victory, all five of them believed 100% that just by looking at the thin spiritual energy still present nearby, they could infer that he hadn't even used a Heavenly Profound-level martial skill, so how could he possibly have won?

  After all, after displaying the Tianxuan-level martial skills, once the spiritual energy on both sides is exhausted, it will take at least a few hours to recover, but they come and go in less than half an hour.

  But where is Ji Youhu now?

  Ji Youming is not here, could it be that Xu Yu won? But this shouldn't be the case, the opponent is only in the middle of their cultivation!

  Suddenly, a monk standing by the wall stretched out his hand, wiped off the blood stain on the wall, put it to his nose and sniffed, then changed color abruptly, "It's Shi Shidi's blood!!"

  In an instant, everyone else's faces changed, but no one doubted each other's judgment, because Ji Youhuang was in the early stages of foundation building, while Xuyu, the target, was only in the middle stage of refinement. The two had a huge difference in their cultivation levels, and the spiritual energy contained in their blood due to their different levels of practice also had an enormous gap.

  But right after that, another cultivator looked down at the gray mark on the ground and said, "This is a fire-based technique or it was burned by true flames to leave such a mark. That Xu Yu is only in the Body Refining stage as a martial artist, he can't control flames like this, I just don't know what got burned."

  Locally, there was still a bloody smell, because the walls originally had bloodstains, but the original corpse stench in the air had long been blown away by the wind. Even several monks couldn't determine the origin of the gray marks on the ground.

  "They both should have been evenly matched, or perhaps Seasoning Junior Brother was careless and fell into a trap. Otherwise, the opponent shouldn't have been able to break through his defensive barrier." Another person followed up with their own words.

  "That's right, Xu Yu should still be alive, otherwise Season wouldn't be gone."

  "Was he badly hurt? Could only escape quickly? That Xu Yu, perhaps also became alert, but he couldn't fly, it's impossible to chase after Season Shidi, so what's left is either escaping from here or hiding somewhere nearby. However, with his speed, he shouldn't be able to escape far!"

  ……

  In an instant, the four monks on the spot, except for Qingzhuang, a middle-aged man, all whispered to each other, step by step speculating what had happened during this period of departure.

  Several people's guesses, although somewhat different from the facts, with whispers, that lean middle-aged man, the chill in his eyes, became more and more intense, and gradually confirmed similar ideas.

  It's just that, apart from this idea, they couldn't think of any other reason. After all, a mid-stage cultivator who can't even use the Tianxuan-level martial skill, how could he defeat a strong Jiedan period cultivator? That would be unable to break through even the defensive cover.

  The blood on the wall of Ji Youming could only be that the opponent was momentarily careless and fell into a trap, but the wound was not fatal. Otherwise, there would not have been this patch of true fire burning marks on the ground, which is enough to explain that after being injured, Ji Youming still had the strength to counterattack.

  As long as there is time for a counterattack, it's enough for him to hold up his shield and escape from here!

  Once a master wants to leave, it's like flying with a sword. Ordinary cultivators in the foundation stage can't keep up, but it's enough to make the other party alert and escape or hide.

  Of course, a few people also thought of another possibility, that is, Ji Youhui thoroughly killed Xu Yu after having the strength to counterattack, but that seems impossible too, otherwise Ji Youhui should be healing here and waiting for their return.

  Unless he is going to take his treasure and betray him at the gate of Yu Yang.

  The problem is, Qiu Youhou had no reason to do so. Even if he had obtained the treasure, it could gather spiritual energy, but gathering in the secular world would not be as effective as gathering within the Yu Yang Gate. Moreover, within the mountain gate, there were also Qiu Youhou's descendants, and he would not betray them?

  "Xu Yu must have escaped or is hiding nearby, split up and search!! As for Season Shidi, since we don't know which direction he ran in, let's put him aside for now. Since he can walk, with the medicinal pellets on his body, even if he's injured, he should be able to recover. We must dig three feet underground to catch that Xu Yu!!" The middle-aged man's eyes flickered as he spoke in a low voice, his thin face clouded over.

  In short, all four monks who were discussing it nodded their heads in unison.

  Then, the five figures shot out of the building like five flying birds, and disappeared into the endless sky. The five people each occupied a direction, releasing their vast divine sense to search left and right in a carpet-like manner.

  But in the search, on top of the five figures, there was an intense killing intent. What a joke, six foundation stage strongmen came to hunt and kill a martial artist in the middle of his cultivation period, but unexpectedly, one of them got injured first? Now even Ji Youyun doesn't know where he has run off to.

  Even if the matter won't spread, several monks' faces were all flushed with shame.

  This made Hui Yu even more furious, and as soon as they found that scoundrel, several people would make him disappear without a trace.

  But under this pervasive and scattered murderous intent, no one knew that hundreds of meters southwest, in the dark corner of a dead alley, an object that originally looked like a wall pillar suddenly moved slightly.

  Here!

  Perceiving the distant, slow-flying aura, Xu Yu's spirit suddenly tensed up, but when he realized that several other massive auras were moving in different directions and leaving, he completely relaxed again.

  Something's up at home, so I'll be heading back to my hometown tomorrow, haha, it's a rural area, no internet connection, sigh... I'm afraid we can't do anything about it. So for the next few days, updates will be irregular, yeah, irregular! I can promise that there won't be less than two updates per day, but the update time can't be fixed because I need to go to town to find an internet cafe to upload, hope everyone understands~
