Chapter 53: Escaping

  Seeing the two men's faces not looking good, Ye Fei's heart sank, and his eyes narrowed as he decided to pretend to be stupid and walk past them. Just as Ye Fei hadn't taken a few steps, the black-clothed youth suddenly blocked his way.

  Seeing this, Ye Fei felt a great sense of helplessness in his heart. He was on his way, and suddenly such a person appeared out of nowhere? It seems that he can't avoid it, but he doesn't know how much trouble it will be. In front of him is a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator who can take his life at any time, and he absolutely cannot provoke them.

  "This fellow Daoist, senior, where have I offended you? I'm in a hurry to return to Qian Ya Sect and report back." Ye Fei intentionally brought up the name of Qian Ya Sect, hoping to intimidate his opponent.

  The old man and the young man opposite him also flashed a hint of surprise on their faces.

  "Are you a disciple of Qian Ya Sect? Where are you from?" Upon hearing this, the old man looked at Ye Fei and asked.

  Upon seeing the old man's expression, Ye Fei felt a surge of joy in his heart and nodded, saying: "I am indeed a disciple of Qian Ya Sect, a loose cultivator from Wu Hua Town."

  At these words, the old man's eyebrows furrowed, and he looked somewhat hesitant.

  "Hum, what's going on with the Qian Ya Sect? In order to make Big Brother live comfortably in the Qian Ya Sect, Father secretly eliminated the descendants of the Xiao family. If it weren't for this, how would I have been ambushed by the Xiao family?"

  "If Medicine God Valley doesn't provide an antidote, I'm afraid I'll have to accompany him to hell too. Qian Ya Sect, heh heh, all of this is the trouble caused by Qian Ya Sect. Since you've met me Qin Yuan, it's just your bad luck." The black-clothed youth said in a cold voice, with a hint of murderous intent and some inexplicable resentment flashing in his eyes.

  Ye Fei couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart. Was his fate really that bad? When had his life ever gone smoothly? With just this one young cultivator who had reached the 9th layer of Qi Refining, Ye Fei still had some confidence in being able to escape unscathed, but as for the older cultivator in the Foundation Establishment stage behind him, it was impossible for him to let Ye Fei go.

  The killing intent that flashed in the youth's eyes earlier made Ye Fei's heart sink, and for a moment, he thought of countless ways to escape, but none could guarantee his safety.

  Thinking of this, Ye Fei couldn't help but raise his guard, although he didn't have the chance to struggle in the face of the foundation period, Ye Fei would never wait for death with folded arms.

  "I'll give you a chance. If you can defeat me, I'll let you go." The black-clad youth finished speaking and with a flash of killing intent on his face, he drew out an ancient bronze-colored long sword.

  Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh! Before Ye Fei could even react, more than a dozen ice cones shot out in rapid succession.

  Immediately afterwards, the black-clad youth raised his hand and pointed, and in mid-air, the long sword quivered slightly. Under a flash of light, it swept forward with a humming noise, slashing down towards Ye Fei's head.

  With a flicker of his eyes, Ye Fei first glanced at the unmoving old man, slightly relieved, and with a wave of his sleeve, a blue water curtain flashed out, blocking all the ice cones in front of him.

  Whoosh!

  With a single hand slapping his waist, Ye Fei quickly drew out a white bone blade. After casting a spell, the white mang flashed and the bone blade vaguely countered the long sword in mid-air.

  Rumble!

  A sharp light burst forth, and the two treasures were momentarily stalemated. At this moment, a black-clad youth named Qin Yuan flashed a ray of light from his hand, and a yellow awn shot out towards Ye Fei.

  Its speed was so fast that it appeared in front of Ye Fei's eyes in just a few flashes, but just as it was about to pierce his body, a small green shield suddenly appeared in front of Ye Fei.

  A loud, crisp sound.

  A yellowish dagger of about one foot in length was knocked open by a small green shield, and the black-clad youth's face flashed with surprise.

  "The reaction isn't bad, and it seems you have quite a few treasures in your hands, heh, looks like I won't be able to easily defeat you without using some tricks." After saying this, Qin Yuan looked at the two magical artifacts that were locked in a stalemate in mid-air.

  With a grasp of his hand, he immediately thrust the dagger at the yellowish mist.

  With a flash, the dagger quivered slightly in mid-air, and under the radiant glow, more than ten illusory daggers suddenly appeared, one of which struck towards Ye Fei.

  Ye Fei's magic surged, a small green shield shone brightly and expanded in size, blocking the glowing dagger-like lights.

  Those light-shaped daggers, like intangible objects, quickly bypassed the small green shield, forming a yellow thread that surrounded Ye Fei's rapid rotation, as if searching for an opportunity to attack. But each time they were blocked by the small green shield.

  Ye Fei controlled the small green shield while anxiously thinking of a countermeasure, prolonged battle was clearly disadvantageous to himself, in the end he might not even have the strength to run.

  Just as Ye Fei was deep in thought, Ye Fei suddenly changed color and controlled the small green shield to appear in front of him. Almost at the same time, a yellow dagger slashed onto it with a crisp sound.

  "Huh? The Shadow Dagger can actually distinguish between real and fake?" The black-clad youth said with some puzzlement, his own magical artifact had successfully defeated countless opponents, the surrounding light-shaped daggers made it difficult for ordinary people to tell what was real and what was fake. How could he know that Ye Fei relied on his divine sense?

  Although he managed to block the dagger, Ye Fei was also forced back four or five steps, and the more they fought, the more disheveled he became. He looked flustered, constantly retreating with a posture that seemed on the verge of collapse.

  Seeing this, the black-clad youth's mouth corner rose, but seeing that he couldn't take down Ye Fei for a long time, he also became somewhat infuriated. With a single hand patting his waist, a bright yellow talisman suddenly appeared in the black-clad youth's hand.

  At this time, Ye Fei had already been forced to retreat step by step by the young man. The distance between the two men's battle and the old man was getting farther and farther away. The old man started to frown, but when he saw the mysterious talisman in the black-clothed youth's hand, he let out a sigh of relief, as if even the old man had great confidence in this talisman.

  He tossed the mysterious talisman into the air, and the black-clad youth's face turned grave. With a single hand, he formed a seal, but before he could make another move, a urgent cry echoed from afar.

  "Be careful, young one!" The words had barely fallen when the old man's face changed and he rushed towards the black-clad youth.

  But hearing the old man's shout, Qin Yuan seemed to have noticed something and quickly dodged to one side.

  With a puff! A strange scene appeared.

  A thread of fresh blood suddenly spurted out from the shoulder of the black-clad youth, accompanied by a muffled hum, and his body stumbled, almost falling to the ground. The old man who was chased here helped him up.

  Just as the old man was about to move, Ye Fei had already taken action. On his legs, a yellow talisman appeared out of nowhere, and his feet were flashing with white light. At this moment, his figure had already appeared ten zhang away.

  "You cunning little brat, actually using Qin Yuan to stall me. Otherwise, how could I have let him run so far?" The old man said with a murderous intent, his hand grasping a transparent flying needle stained with blood.

  The boy in black clothes looked at Ye Fei's back with a pale face, his whole body trembling involuntarily, his fists clenched tightly. He said fiercely: "Uncle, we must not let him go!"

  "Heh heh, don't worry, he won't be able to escape." The old man said with a flash of sternness in his eyes. (End of chapter)
