Chapter 247
Duan Siqi tightly grasped the long sword in her hand, as if she couldn't wait to catch up with the escaping enemy and kill him on the spot.
Gu Shihan on the side waved his sleeves to dispel the remaining black mist, and said calmly: "Don't worry, Xingbai has already secretly sprinkled a special tracking Corruption Demon Powder on him. Even if we can't find his trace now, he will definitely die of poison within a month. However, just in case he continues to do evil and harm others during this period, we should find a way to completely eliminate this person as soon as possible."
Hearing this, Duan Siqi calmed down a little, turned to look at Gu Shihan and asked: "Shihan, we have been here for a while, why haven't Brother Shi and the others arrived yet? If they help, we will be able to successfully stop this evil thief today."
Gu Shihan raised his eyes to the sky and replied calmly: "Here it comes!"
After hearing what Gu Shihan said, Duan Siqi subconsciously turned her gaze to the right in the direction she was looking.
At this moment, several figures rushed towards them at an astonishing speed like lightning.
Accompanied by a familiar wave of magic, Duan Siqi looked carefully and found that it was Shi Qinghan, Mo Yu and Nangong Yi who were riding on flying swords and rushing over.
Before they got close, Shi Qinghan shouted loudly when they were looking at each other from a distance: "Sister, we just noticed that the spiritual energy here was moving strangely, and we could faintly hear the sound of fighting. I wonder what happened?"
When they were a little closer, Gu Shihan quickly responded: "Well, Siqi and I encountered two evil monks here!"
Hearing this, Mo Yu sniffed the air around him, then said, "From the noise, I guess this person must have a high level of cultivation. Did they run away?!"
Duan Siqi was still angry, and her tone was not good. "Mo Yu, isn't it?! One of them died on the spot, but the other took the opportunity to escape. If you can get here faster, with your help and cooperation, Shi Han and I will definitely be able to capture him in one fell swoop. Why did you come so late? Did something happen on the way?"
Nangong Yi frowned slightly, sighed and explained: "Hey, this is a long story! As you know, our attainments in formations are far from as advanced as Shi Han and you. So, we accidentally broke into a formation, and it took us a lot of effort to successfully break it, so we wasted a lot of time. It's just very strange, Wen Xin and the others should have arrived by now, could it be that they have also encountered a difficult situation?"
"Hanhan, the man in black robe is seriously injured. He is currently recuperating in a cave ten miles away from here. Do you plan to go there and kill him in one fell swoop?!" Xingbai sent a voice transmission.
Hearing this, Gu Shihan's eyes condensed, and he turned to look at the people around him, and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, Xingbai just told me that the man in black robe is currently healing in a cave ten miles away. Let's go there immediately and put an end to him once and for all!"
"Okay!" The others responded in unison, and then followed the direction indicated by Xingbai and headed quickly towards their destination.
Soon, the group arrived in front of a forest.
From a distance, this forest looks no different from any other place, with sparse green trees, and can be considered barren. It is hard to imagine that someone could be hiding there.
After all, Gu Shihan and the others were experienced and had sharp perceptions. As soon as they stopped, they immediately noticed a very faint dark aura permeating the air.
If they had not been dealing with the power of darkness for a long time and were extremely familiar with this aura, they would probably not be able to detect this abnormality at all.
Shi Qinghan raised his hand and made a gesture of silence, signaling everyone to keep quiet.
Then, his figure flashed, and he moved forward quickly along the black air like a ghost. Seeing this, the others did not dare to be negligent, and they all used their skills to keep up with him.
After walking for about two or three miles, they finally saw a dense bush on the side of the mountain.
The black air was emanating from here. Obviously, the hiding place of the man in black robe should be nearby.
At this moment, the black-robed man in the cave was concentrating on healing his wounds. Suddenly, his heart skipped a beat and an ominous premonition came to his mind.
He subconsciously opened his eyes and alertly sensed the movements around him. Sure enough, he sensed someone approaching outside the cave.
As time passed, the man in black robe became more and more panicked...
The man in black robe had a hideous and distorted face, with deep resentment flashing in his eyes. He suddenly rushed out of the dark and damp cave like a wounded beast, and his speed was astonishing.
As soon as he came out of the cave, he saw Gu Shihan standing not far away, so he immediately stopped and stared at him with eyes full of hatred and unwillingness.
He managed to force out a sentence through his clenched teeth. His voice was low and hoarse, filled with endless hatred: "I haven't hurt you at all. Why are you forcing me so hard? We have always kept to ourselves. Isn't this good enough? Do you have to fight to the death?..."
Before the black-robed man could finish his words, Shi Qinghan's eyes widened with anger and he shouted, "Nonsense! You evildoers are relying on the dark energy to wantonly kill innocent lives. This is unforgivable! Anyone with a sense of justice will never let you scum go. Today is the day you die!"
Before he finished speaking, the high-beam sword in his hand had already turned into a ray of cold light and stabbed straight at the man in black robe.
The man in black robes saw this and thought to himself that it was not good. He was already seriously injured, and if he took the sword head-on, he would definitely be in danger.
He gritted his teeth, enduring the waves of severe pain in his body, not daring to hesitate for a moment, turned around and used his best body skills to quickly escape from here.
At the same time, his hands danced rapidly, instantly throwing out several dark spells emitting a strange aura.
Those dark spells drew black arcs in the air and then exploded violently.
In an instant, a thick black smoke rose into the sky, covering the surroundings and making it difficult to see.
When the black smoke gradually dissipated, everyone was surprised to find that the man in black robe who was standing there just now had disappeared without a trace.
"Damn it! He escaped again!" Duan Siqi stomped her feet in anger, her pretty face flushed red as she said indignantly.
At this time, Gu Shihan came forward, carefully checked the surrounding situation, shook his head and said: "Indeed, he escaped again!"
