"You little bastard! How dare you steal my sect's treasure!"
Xiao Zaihe got up from the ground in a somewhat embarrassed manner, roaring angrily, and then chased Yun Che again, closing the distance between them again in the blink of an eye. Yun Che turned his head, exerted a little force on his hand, and threw the second thunder bomb backwards, and this time, he no longer smashed it into Xiao Zaihe's face, but threw it on the ground in front of him.
Seeing the thunderbolt falling in front of him, Xiao Zaihe was horrified. He stopped in panic and fell backwards.
boom!!!!
A scorching wave of air came from behind, causing Yun Che to stagger and nearly fall. The distance between the two of them was temporarily widened, but it was only temporarily widened. A thunderbolt could only buy him a few seconds.
He held the third thunder bomb in his hand. He had to rush into the city as quickly as possible. Only by entering the city would he have a chance of escaping.
“You bastard! There are only six Sky-shaking Thunders in total. When you use up all the Sky-shaking Thunders, I wonder where you can escape to!” Xiao Zaihe chased him closely, but he was already gritting his teeth in anger. Sky-shaking Thunders are thermal weapons made by the Qi Sect of the Xiao Sect’s main sect. They are extremely powerful. Even with his cultivation in the Profound Spirit Realm, he would be either dead or injured if he was hit head-on. These Sky-shaking Thunders are life-saving weapons that only the elders of the branch sects are qualified to possess. Now, not only are they in Yun Che’s hands, but he is also using them on himself so unscrupulously. Fortunately, the opponent’s profound strength is very low, and he can easily avoid the Sky-shaking Thunders he threw, otherwise he might have to die here today.
What Xiao Zaihe shouted was also what Yun Che was worried about. There were indeed only six thunder bombs, and these six bombs combined could only buy him less than two minutes, which was not enough time for him to rush into the city.
We have to think of some other way.
Yun Che held the Sky-shaking Thunderbolt in his hand, his heartbeat raced, and his brows furrowed. He had been hunted down too many times before, and there were countless times that were a hundred times more dangerous than this one. He had escaped most of them with the poison of the Sky Poison Pearl. But now that the poison of the Sky Poison Pearl had disappeared and the Hidden Star Grass had been used up, it was impossible to fight hard. So the only thing he could borrow was...
Yun Che took a deep breath and began to quickly sort through the medicinal materials obtained from the Xiao Sect's treasure house, looking for those that could be made into a highly toxic substance that would take effect quickly.
At this moment, a graceful and elegant figure of a girl suddenly appeared in his sight. The girl was wearing a snow-white dress. Although she was far away, one could clearly feel her noble elegance coming towards him.
Although he was too far away to see the girl’s face clearly, Yun Che’s mind still instantly popped up her name… because in this New Moon City, there was only one girl who had ever given him such a feeling.
Is it Lan Xueruo!? Why is she here? This is clearly a place that one would pass by on their way to Xiao Zong. Could it be...
At this time, Yun Che no longer had time to think, and he quickly removed the disguise on his face, while at the same time, a thunderbolt struck behind him.
With a loud bang, Xiao Zaihe's body, which had dodged in time, was forced several dozen steps away by the aftermath of the explosion. Yun Che rushed forward while shouting to the girl who was getting closer and closer: "Senior Sister Xueruo!"
The reason why Lan Xueruo was here was to go to Xiao Zong to confirm whether Yun Che was there. The earth-shattering explosion made her pause for a moment, and when she looked up, she saw Yun Che running towards her.
"Yun Che?" Lan Xueruo murmured, and then a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. No matter what, he was still alive. This was the result she wanted to see most when she came to Xiao Sect today. But immediately, she saw Xiao Zaihe chasing after her.
"You little bastard! Where can you run? I'll break your legs and cripple your limbs in a while!" Although Xiao Zaihe was not injured by the thunder bomb, three consecutive thunder bombs made him disheveled and covered in dust, and his roar was obviously full of anger.
Lan Xueruo understood what happened instantly, her eyebrows knitted, and without time to think, she hurriedly called out: "Junior Brother Yun, come to me quickly!!"
As she spoke, she stretched out her right hand, and a snow-white mark suddenly appeared on the back of her hand: "Xiaoxue, come out!"
As she called out softly, the mark on the back of her hand glowed brighter, and with a sharp, long cry that seemed to come from the horizon, a giant snow sculpture appeared in front of her in the white light.
“Contracted Spirit Beast!?” Looking at the giant white eagle that suddenly appeared beside Lan Xueruo, Yun Che was surprised and delighted at the same time. He gritted his teeth, quickened his pace, and stretched out his hand in the direction of Lan Xueruo.
Lan Xueruo jumped onto the back of the giant snow eagle, and with her slender snow-white hand, she grabbed the hand that Yun Che extended, and pulled him onto the snow eagle’s back. The giant snow eagle spread its wings, and soared into the sky with a long cry, rushing straight into the sky like lightning, and in the blink of an eye it had turned into a black dot in the distant sky.
A life-threatening crisis was resolved in a way he had never expected. The snow sculpture was flying at an extremely fast speed, the wind whistled in his ears, and the cold wind that poured into his chest made him feel suffocated for a long time. It was not until the snow sculpture flew steadily enough that he finally got used to it, exhaled a long breath, opened his eyes, and saw Lan Xueruo sitting in front of him, looking at him with a smile.
Yun Che then remembered that he was still wearing that inappropriate robe, but his expression remained unchanged as he said with a smile, “Senior Sister, have you suddenly discovered that no matter how shabby the clothes are, they look special on me?”
Lan Xueruo was startled, then burst into laughter, her smile as beautiful as a hundred flowers in full bloom: "After all, he is Junior Brother Yun. He almost lost his life just now, and now he still remembers to praise himself seriously."
“Yeah, I almost lost my life just now.” Yun Che stroked his forehead slightly, feeling a bit scared. If Lan Xueruo hadn’t suddenly appeared, the possibility of him escaping would have been very low. Because the area in front of Xiao Zong was so empty, so empty that he felt like crying but couldn’t even cry when he tried to escape just now.
“By the way, Senior Sister, why did you come to this place? Do you have something to do in Xiao Sect?” Yun Che asked.
“Yes.” Lan Xueruo nodded gently, and her gem-like eyes looked at Yun Che several times. After confirming that he was not traumatized at all, the expression on her face completely relaxed, and her eyes became more relaxed: “You suddenly disappeared three days ago, and Yuan Ba and I searched all over the city for you but couldn’t find you. Later, I thought that you might have been secretly abducted by Xiao Zong, so I came here.”
Yun Che froze for a moment, and an inexplicable feeling of emotion welled up in his heart. For a moment, he was speechless. After a long while, he finally said in a voice as calm as possible: "The Xiao Sect's branch is the largest sect in Xinyue City. You are a girl coming here alone, didn't you think how dangerous it would be... You and I have only known each other for a few days, why are you so nice to me?"
Lan Xueruo smiled and said softly, "I told you, because I am your senior sister."
Yun Che: “…”
Previously, Lan Xueruo promised to let her family send him safely to Cangfeng Imperial City within ten days to avoid the disaster of Xiao Sect, and he had always been suspicious. After experiencing too many things, he would never believe that a person would be so kind to someone he was not familiar with for no reason, and even take a huge risk that might endanger his life. Now, Lan Xueruo came to Xiao Sect alone to find him, and rescued him from danger... This made the only possibility that Yun Che could think of more and more certain.
Senior Sister Xueruo in front of him... definitely fell in love with him at first sight! Goodbye, infatuation!
Apart from this reason, he could not think of any other reason that could make a girl do this to a man who had no family background, no financial resources, no power, no strength, and was just a chance acquaintance.
“Junior Brother Yun, have you really been abducted to the Xiao Sect these past few days? Then how did you escape?” After taking a look at Yun Che’s clothes, a smile appeared in Lan Xueruo’s beautiful eyes: “Could it be that… you wore the clothes of a servant and sneaked out without anyone noticing?”
“Well… I guess so. But I wasn’t abducted by Xiao Zong. I went in by myself.” Yun Che smiled complacently, but did not explain much. Instead, he changed the subject and said, “Senior Sister, you actually have a contracted profound beast? And it seems to be a very high-level profound beast.”
Seeing that Yun Che obviously didn’t want to mention what happened in Xiao Sect in the past few days, Lan Xueruo didn’t ask any more questions and followed his words, “Its name is Xiaoxue, it’s a giant snow sculpture of a true profound beast, it was trained by my master, and after it grew up, I made it my contracted profound beast. Although Xiaoxue looks very big and bulky, its ability to control the air is very strong, and it flies very fast… By the way, Junior Brother Yun, where do you want to go next?”
Yun Che fell silent, then slowly said: “I gave Xiao Zong a ‘big gift’. They must be looking for me all over the city now, so I can’t go back to Xinyue Xuanfu or even the entire Xinyue City. Next, I don’t know where to go… or maybe, outside of Xinyue City, I can go anywhere…”
At this moment, Yun Che suddenly felt something strange happen in the sound of the wind beside his ears. With his extremely sharp intuition, he turned his head back almost subconsciously and saw at a glance that a black dot was approaching at a very fast speed a thousand meters behind him.
"What is that!"
It took only a few breaths from the time Yun Che discovered him to the time he spoke, and in this extremely short time, the black spot in his sight had turned into a blurred black shadow, which showed how terrifying its speed was. Lan Xueruo quickly turned around, her eyes fixed, and then she exclaimed: "It's the Storm Eagle, the highest-level mysterious beast raised by the Xiao Sect!"
“What!” Yun Che frowned suddenly.
“Why would they even send out the Storm Eagle to chase you... and so fast!” Lan Xueruo’s snowy face also showed a trace of panic, because she knew very well that the flying speed of the Storm Eagle was no less than that of her giant snow eagle, and even its endurance was far superior.
However, if she knew what Yun Che did in Xiao Sect, she would not have asked this question.
"Xiaoxue, go!"
She let out a soft cry, and the giant snow eagle beneath her flapped its wings violently, accelerating suddenly, leaving a long white shadow as it shot straight to the north. The black shadow behind it was not slow at all, hanging closely behind it.
