Leng Qingning suddenly felt inexplicable palpitations and a strong sense of unease. The blood in her body seemed to be frozen in an iceberg. Faced with this sudden and powerful force, even though she struggled desperately, she was still unable to move. She could only watch as a strange old man swung a spiritual power towards her.
Yan Ci, who was beside her, stood in front of her and met the attack with a palm. With a "bang", the two forces collided and Yan Ci hurriedly retreated. At this time, the two of them could see the man's face clearly.
The old man was wearing a gray cloth shirt, had gray hair, a goatee, and a pair of cold and turbid eyes that looked at her as if she were a poisonous snake.
Leng Qingning suddenly felt a lump in her heart. This veteran's cultivation had already reached the late Golden Core stage, and she seemed to have never offended such a strong man before.
"Are you Leng Qingning?" The old man looked at her coldly. He didn't expect that he came here specifically to kill her. The old man didn't notice Yan Ci beside her at all. He didn't take a spiritual pet seriously.
Leng Qingning didn't speak immediately. The wind whistled past her ears, and her mind was racing, thinking about how to escape from the old man.
Ye Qingzhu and the others next to her were completely unaware that something was wrong with her and Yan Ci. They were chatting among themselves, as if they were not in the same space.
"Come with me!" Yan Ci grabbed her waist and flew quickly towards the distant mountains. The people behind her were chasing her closely, but the feeling of being tightly locked up still did not disappear.
When Ye Qingzhu glanced to the side, she was shocked and asked, "Did you see when Xiao Qingning and her contracted beast left?"
"Senior Sister Ye, you must have seen it wrong. Junior Sister Leng and her contracted beast are clearly here..." When Lu Yan saw that there was nothing beside him, the smile on his face froze.
"How could this happen? They were clearly here just now, how could they disappear in the blink of an eye? Didn't you see when they left?"
Ji Lize and Tian Feiyu shook their heads at the same time, and his gaze turned to Shen Youshu again.
Shen Youshu bit her lip and shook her head. She hesitated and said, "I didn't see when they left, but I always felt that something was wrong just now, but I can't put my finger on it."
Bai Xichen suddenly felt something was wrong. Could it be that Dongfang Ao, that old villain, had accomplices? Or perhaps they had encountered a powerful and evil cultivator? No, he had to see for himself whether Junior Sister Leng was in the room.
He immediately pushed open Fei Leng Qingning's door, and Zuo Shaoqian and Ye Qingzhu followed behind him at the same time, "Junior Sister Leng, are you there?" However, there was no one inside. Bai Xichen suddenly broke out in a sweat. Two living people disappeared under their noses. He felt inexplicably creepy in his heart.
"You two young boys are quite good at running, but you can run away from the monk but not the temple. Since you have offended someone you shouldn't have offended, you should pay the price!" The old man's voice mixed with powerful spiritual power came from behind.
He thrust his palm forward, and a thunderous roar erupted in the air. The red-gold spiritual power was like sharp blades, spiraling around the two people in front.
Leng Qingning spun the silk thread guide, releasing dozens of fine threads that collided with the blades, creating a clanging metallic friction sound. Seeing this, Yan Ci raised his hand and shattered all the golden blades.
He drew out the bone sword from his waist and threw it backwards. The bone sword seemed like a living snake, wrapping around the old man like a rope.
The old man sneered, and his spiritual power suddenly increased to the middle stage of the Nascent Soul. He roared angrily and shattered the ordinary bone sword. The old man's face turned ashen, and he increased his speed to catch up again. He actually hid his cultivation level.
"Very good, I underestimated you. I didn't expect you two to be so good at escaping!"
"Thunder Sword Technique!--" The sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds, and thunder surged. The silver sword, with a strong momentum, rushed and raged like a storm, accompanied by several lightning bolts.
The pressure of impending death made Leng Qingning tremble from the inside out, and the hairs on her body stood up. She gritted her teeth and used earth control techniques to block in front of herself.
However, how could such a mere spell withstand the blow of a Nascent Soul cultivator? Her earth control technique broke apart piece by piece, and she now deeply hated herself for not practicing it well enough.
"Leng Qingning, he is not someone you can deal with. Just help me watch the road ahead, and I will deal with him." Yan Ci had to take him flying quickly while dealing with the Nascent Soul cultivator behind him.
But now, his cultivation has only recovered to the early stage of Golden Core. There is no other way now, he can only try to trust him.
Well, she would try to turn her back to him and do the task of clearing the way.
When did this damn girl manage to tame such a powerful demon beast? Where did this demon come from?
No, he must not let this dead girl grow up, otherwise she will pose a great threat to his Xuan'er.
Today, he must kill these two guys no matter what.
The old man had a sinister look on his face, and his body moved without any wind. Suddenly, he became as fast as lightning.
"God-Destroying Palm!" The old man roared angrily, and the vast spiritual power around him continued to surge forward. With an awe-inspiring aura, a huge palm dropped from the sky, firmly locking Leng Qingning and Yan Ci in front of him.
It was over, it was over. How could a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator like her withstand such a powerful spiritual energy fluctuation? Leng Qingning's vision went dark, her blood surged, and she spit out large mouthfuls of blood. Her body fell straight down like a kite with its string cut off.
Affected by her, Yan Ci's face turned extremely pale and blood spurted out of his mouth.
"Damn stupid woman, nothing can happen to you,"
Strange blood flowed from the corners of Yan Ci's mouth, and a strange light bloomed in his golden pupils. Suddenly, a huge black python appeared behind him. The python's body was as big as a mountain and half stood in the air. It opened its bloody mouth and howled to the sky.
"What the hell is this thing?" The old man was shocked when he saw this. He saw the giant python roaring and its thick tail sweeping towards the huge palm in the air.
There was a "crack" sound, and the huge palm was instantly broken apart by the giant python's tail. The old man was hit hard and spit out blood.
He looked at the young man with horror, and immediately turned into a shadow and fled thousands of miles away.
"That's great, this old guy is finally gone, Yan Ci and we are safe..." Leng Qingning just turned around and saw Yan Ci fainted with a pale face.
"Yan Ci, wake up quickly, you can't sleep, we are still flying in the air." Leng Qingning suddenly felt a strong sense of weightlessness and screamed loudly, falling into the dense jungle with Yan Ci.
