Chapter 269: Encountering an Old Friend
Li Xiaoxiao sneaked carefully in the forest. The powerful aura was getting closer and closer, and the air around him was oppressed and distorted.
With a "whoosh" sound, Li Xiaoxiao heard it and looked up. Through the branches, he could only see a flash of yellow passing through the sky.
As the yellow color moved further away from her, the feeling of oppression was alleviated a lot.
"Just passing through?"
Li Xiaoxiao had doubts in her heart and decided to temporarily stop her plan to eradicate the remnants of the Blood Shadow Sect. Her instinct told her to quickly get away from the forest.
Li Xiaoxiao quickly displayed his skills and ran towards the edge of the forest like a ghost in the woods.
But she didn't run far when she heard a creepy roar from behind her. Looking back, she saw a bloody mist. A giant wolf wrapped in black miasma rushed out of the mist, staring at her with blood-red eyes.
What the hell is this!
As soon as he asked this question, a group of information immediately emerged in his mind: This is the evil beast of the Blood Shadow Sect! The Blood Shadow Sect secretly raises evil beasts for use in battle.
After a moment of surprise, the wolf opened its bloody mouth and pounced towards him with a foul smell.
Li Xiaoxiao dodged to the side and replaced his hand with an ordinary sword. With a slight shake, a raging fire ignited and he slashed towards the wolf.
The wolf dodged flexibly, leaving deep marks on the ground with its claws, and attacked again.
Just as Li Xiaoxiao was fighting fiercely with the wolf, the powerful aura that had briefly disappeared suddenly returned again at an extremely fast speed.
In the blink of an eye, a dazzling yellow light fell from the sky and landed not far away.
The light faded, revealing an old man in a yellow robe. He had a stern face and a look of frightening majesty in his eyes.
"Humph, you little remnant of the Blood Shadow Sect, how dare you run wild here."
The old man snorted coldly and waved his hand. A rope made of yellow spiritual power instantly tied up the wolf.
The wolf struggled desperately but couldn't break free.
The old man turned to look at Li Xiaoxiao, and looked her over, "You, young man, do have some peculiarities about you."
Li Xiaoxiao looked at the old man vigilantly, holding the sword tightly in his hand, ready to deal with any emergency at any time.
"Thank you for your help, senior. May I know who you are?" The old man raised his head slightly. "I am the master of Lingfeng Valley. I heard that there has been unrest in this area recently, so I came here to check it out. I didn't expect to encounter such a thing as soon as I arrived."
Before he could finish his words, a sharp cry was heard from the sky, and a huge brown bird swooped down from the clouds, its claws heading straight for the old man.
The old man's face changed and he dodged the attack.
The bird circled in the air and landed on the ground, transforming into a brown-robed man with a hideous scar on his face and a murderous aura all over his body.
"Ling Fengtian, today is the day you die!" Ye Youying said coldly.
Ye Youying and Ling Fengtian are old enemies. When she learned that he was out, she waited here for a long time.
Seeing the situation suddenly change, Li Xiaoxiao thought to herself: These two people have higher cultivation levels than me. If I get involved in their fight, I'm afraid I'll be in big trouble.
He then quietly stepped back, hoping that both sides would not pay attention to him.
However, Ye Youying noticed Li Xiaoxiao's intention and sneered, "Want to leave? It's not that easy.
"Since you were saved by Ling Fengtian, you will be buried with him today!" After saying that, a sharp long knife appeared in his hand and he gently gestured towards Li Xiaoxiao.
Li Xiaoxiao could not sense the sword energy approaching. But she instinctively raised her hand to block it with her sword. The next moment, the sword silently broke into two pieces, leaving a wound on her arm.
Ling Fengtian was furious when he saw this. This person didn't take him seriously at all and even dared to hurt people in front of him!
He slapped Ye Youying with his palm, and a powerful storm of spiritual power swept over.
Ye Youying raised his hand to resist, and the two of them instantly engaged in a fierce battle.
Li Xiaoxiao took advantage of this gap, turned around and fled, while taking a healing pill and circulating his spiritual power to recover from his injuries.
Ye Youying saw Li Xiaoxiao running away, but he had no time to care about her at this time.
The battle became more intense, and the surrounding trees fell down one after another due to the impact of powerful spiritual power.
Li Xiaoxiao quickly shuttled through the woods, but still kept a close eye on the battlefield behind him.
The spiritual energy around Ling Fengtian and Ye Youying surged, transforming into yellow and brown halos, like two fighting dragons, and the space seemed to be torn apart wherever they passed.
Suddenly, Ye Youying turned around and sped up abruptly. He went behind Ling Fengtian like a ghost, and chopped down fiercely with his long sword wrapped in a black glow.
Ling Fengtian reacted quickly and dodged to the side, but a bloody cut was still left on his shoulder.
"Hmph, Ye Youying, that's all you can do." Although Ling Fengtian was injured, his momentum was not diminished at all. He quickly formed seals with his hands and muttered something.
In an instant, a strong wind blew, and countless wind blades attacked the night shadow from all directions.
Ye Youying's face was solemn, and the long sword in his hand danced quickly, forming a black barrier to block the attack of the wind blade.
However, the wind blades became more and more numerous, densely packed, pouring down like a rainstorm.
Ye Youying was careless and his arm was scratched by a wind blade, and blood dripped.
Seeing this, Li Xiaoxiao withdrew his spiritual sense and moved away at a faster speed.
And in the process of fleeing, she gave up Wu Xiji's appearance and turned back into a daughter, but her appearance was not her own.
Now those people will be cautious even if they meet her, and it won't be like a dog-skin plaster that sticks to her and cannot be torn off.
As the edge of the forest was approaching, a group of figures suddenly appeared in front of me.
Li Xiaoxiao frowned and wanted to hide, but the other party had already locked onto her with several spiritual senses, so she could only stop and look carefully.
It wouldn't matter if she didn't look, but once she did, she realized she knew almost all of them.
They are: Jiqufeng Mazi and Gaodada.
There is also Big Brother Lu Zhengxin, the local rich man Wen Fu, and Rong Ci who should be grown up.
Behind him was a group of new disciples wearing inner sect robes, who were at the eighth to tenth level of Qi Condensation.
What are these people doing here?
Uh, wait, they are here, does that mean this place is very close to Shushan Xianzong?
Ma Zi, who is in the lead, has made great progress in his cultivation and has become a Jindan cultivator. Big Brother Lu is in the middle stage of foundation building, Rich Man Tu is in the middle stage of foundation building, and Rong Ci has already reached the late stage of foundation building and has reached great perfection.
Li Xiaoxiao, who had just galloped over, did not restrain his cultivation. Ma Zi took the lead in bowing respectfully and said, "Hello, senior. We are disciples of Shushan Xianzong and are about to go to the forest to carry out activities. No intention of offending you."
When the others saw Ma Zi bowing, they followed suit.
Li Xiaoxiao looked at the row of heads, feeling mixed emotions.
