Clang—!
Clang—!
Clang—!
On the grassland, Ye Wangchuan and several attendants clashed in combat.
With a sweep of his spear, waves of icy energy surged out.
The chilling aura and malevolent intent swirled through the battlefield, causing significant trouble for the attendants.
Despite being outnumbered, Ye Wangchuan held his ground, and the attendants found it difficult to gain the upper hand.
The reach of his spear was simply too long.
At that moment, Ye Wangchuan noticed Luo Nangui had fled far away.
Feeling relieved, he suddenly thrust his spear toward the crowd!
A massive burst of icy energy erupted, forcing the nearby attendants to scatter in panic.
Seizing the opportunity, Ye Wangchuan used the icy blast to break free from the encirclement.
The attendants, of course, were not about to let him escape.
In their eyes, Ye Wangchuan's retreat was a sign of cowardice!
Soon, they chased him into the forest.
Ye Wangchuan glanced around, carefully observing his surroundings.
It didn’t take long for him to spot a small figure sitting on a tree stump, munching on grapes.
“Li Luo, I’ve come to see you.”
“Oh, Ye Wangchuan, you… Wait, what?! Ye Wangchuan, why are you bringing so many people with you?!”
Li Luo was stunned to see Ye Wangchuan being pursued by a group of attackers.
Without wasting time, Ye Wangchuan grabbed Li Luo’s arm and slung him onto his back.
Then, with a thought, a bow and arrow materialized in Ye Wangchuan’s hands.
He handed the arrow to Li Luo and began drawing the bow.
Li Luo immediately understood Ye Wangchuan’s plan and nocked the arrow onto the bowstring.
The attendants, seeing this, spread out to avoid being hit.
They couldn’t help but laugh. How could Ye Wangchuan possibly use a bow, a single-target weapon, while being surrounded?
Hah, this guy must be an idiot…
Whoosh—
A flash of black light blinded everyone for half a second.
By the time Ye Wangchuan and Li Luo regained their vision, a kilometer-long path had been carved into the ground, as if a giant dragon had plowed through it.
As for the attendants?
They were gone.
Probably off to have dinner with their families.
“Nice work.”
Ye Wangchuan pinched Li Luo’s cheek on his shoulder.
Crunch!
And then got bitten in return.
……
……
Boom!!!
Meanwhile, on the other side.
Luo Nangui saw a massive black light streak across the grassland, splitting it like a parting comb.
He knew immediately that Ye Wangchuan had once again tapped into the treasure from the ancient tomb.
Gritting his teeth, Luo Nangui muttered, “Sorry, A-Zhuang, A-Mo… and the rest whose names I can’t remember. Your sacrifices won’t be in vain!”
“Once I’m together with the young lady, I’ll make sure she compensates your families!”
As Luo Nangui muttered to himself, the puppet whose wrist he was dragging suddenly spoke up.
“Huh? Luo Nangui? Where are we? I think… I was just hypnotized by Ye Wangchuan.”
“Young lady! You’re finally awake! Thank goodness! It’s a long story, but let’s hurry back to the Mu Family camp!”
Relieved that Murong had merely been hypnotized, Luo Nangui quickened his pace.
But just then—
Thud—!
A spear suddenly slammed into the ground beside Luo Nangui.
It missed him by mere inches.
Startled, Luo Nangui turned around.
Somehow, Ye Wangchuan had already caught up!
And he was carrying a loli on his back.
“Damn it!!!!”
Luo Nangui clenched his teeth, preparing to unleash his early-stage third-level speed to outrun Ye Wangchuan.
Sure, Ye Wangchuan might be stronger in combat, but when it came to running away, how could Ye Wangchuan possibly catch him?
Just as Luo Nangui began to accelerate, the puppet tugged at his arm.
She wore a pained expression and said,
“I can’t. My body’s too exhausted from recovering. I can’t keep up with the speed.”
“Young lady, I’ll carry you!”
“But won’t I just slow you down? What if we both get caught? Luo Nangui, just go! Don’t worry about me!”
“This…”
Luo Nangui gritted his teeth, feeling utterly helpless.
Just then, he spotted a cliff ahead!
The drop was about three kilometers.
A smile spread across Luo Nangui’s face.
This height was perfect—third-level cultivators could survive the fall, but second-level cultivators would surely die.
Ye Wangchuan’s strength came from his high-quality weapons, powerful techniques, and talismans. But his physical body hadn’t reached the third level yet!
If they jumped, Ye Wangchuan might give up the chase.
With that in mind, Luo Nangui grabbed the puppet and leaped off the cliff!
Whoosh—!
Thud!
They plummeted like meteors, crashing heavily onto the ground.
Luo Nangui only suffered broken legs and a few fractured ribs—nothing life-threatening.
As for the puppet, she was fine too. Although she had suppressed her aura to the early third level, her body was still that of a mid-third-level puppet. Plus, with Luo Nangui cushioning her fall, she was unharmed.
Just then, several spears came crashing down!
Luo Nangui looked up to see Ye Wangchuan using his spear to slide down the cliff face at breakneck speed.
“What the hell! Is Ye Wangchuan insane?! He’s still chasing us?!”
Frowning, Luo Nangui tried to think of a way out.
His legs were broken, so he couldn’t run away anytime soon.
Then, the puppet spoke up.
“Luo Nangui, look. There are many caves at the base of this cliff.”
“We just need to hide in one of them, wait for our injuries to heal, and then escape when Ye Wangchuan isn’t paying attention.”
Hearing this, Luo Nangui thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.
The puppet quickly dragged Luo Nangui into one of the caves to hide.
A short while later…
Ye Wangchuan slid down to the bottom.
Seeing the empty ground, he frowned.
“Where’d they go? They were just here.”
“Hmm, probably hiding nearby,” Li Luo said lazily.
“You’re right. There are plenty of caves around. Let’s search them one by one.”
With that, Ye Wangchuan began smashing his spear into the caves, conducting a thorough search.
Inside one of the caves, Luo Nangui was sweating bullets.
Damn it!
Since when are villains this meticulous?
Shouldn’t he just glance around and leave? Why is he searching every single cave?!
Luo Nangui was starting to feel the pressure.
Just then, an idea struck him.
“Wait! If I use this top-tier dual cultivation technique with the young lady, we can boost our strength and escape!”
Excited, Luo Nangui pulled out the dual cultivation manual from his system space and presented it to the puppet.
“Young lady, if we want to survive, we’ll have to learn this dual cultivation technique! It was given to me by a mysterious master, and it’s said to be incredibly powerful!”
“Really? Let me see!”
The puppet feigned surprise and leaned in to examine the manual.
After a moment, she took the manual and tucked it into her spatial ring.
Luo Nangui: “Huh? Young lady, why did you take the manual?”
Puppet: “To give it to Ye Wangchuan.”
