"A precious son is a precious son, I'm so envious."
After the crowd had cleared the mountain gate, Xu Zhiyi found an excuse to fall behind and rode alongside Su Lin, whispering with admiration, "If there weren't any major restrictions on the escape route, I think Mr. Su could stay here a few more days and gain quite a few advantages."
"We'll see when the time comes."
Su Lin glanced at her indifferently, too lazy to reply.
"Mr. Su, you might not like to hear this. We might have to come back again."
Xu Zhiyi smiled and winked: "That Peace Stone was specifically given to you. I thought I would have to help out more, and maybe even lose some people... But it seems that things are going much more smoothly than I expected."
"Sure enough, the factor that has the greatest impact on the outcome of this match is the faction selection before the start of the game."
"Tsk, good luck indeed, I was able to have a smooth journey. Luck is really a key factor in escaping."
Xu Zhiyi was still as talkative as ever, with endless little musings to say.
"You talk too much."
Su Lin frowned and reminded her, "Aren't you afraid that Bai Xianzi will find it strange that you're staying by my side?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Zhiyi couldn't help but purse her lips: "She sent me here. She had already sensed something was wrong and asked me what my relationship with you was... I said we had met during our training trip before, so we were acquainted."
"And guess what she did? She hinted that I should come over and chat more with her, as if she wanted to marry me off to the Sword Pavilion. On the surface, she's a fairy, but she's full of self-interest."
Xu Zhiyi muttered, and the riding crop lashed out in the air: "Why doesn't she marry him herself? It's infuriating!"
"What, is marrying my brother a disservice to you?"
Xiao Linlin, riding alongside Su Lin, suddenly spoke from horseback: "The strongest man in the entire game isn't good enough for you?"
"That's nonsense."
Xu Zhiyi smiled gently: "I'm afraid Mr. Su won't be happy about it!"
"That's true."
Before Su Lin could speak, Xiao Linlin nodded in agreement: "Big brother definitely wouldn't agree. I think you two are not a good match, you're far from it."
Xu Zhiyi wasn't annoyed; she just smiled gently.
"Strange woman, why does she seem even more emotionally deficient than me?"
Seeing that she was not getting it, Xiao Linlin complained softly and shrunk into Su Lin's arms in boredom.
Perhaps they were in a hurry to catch the last wave of training opportunities, or perhaps they wanted to witness the martial arts competition between unparalleled masters, Su Lin's team traveled at an extremely fast speed.
The leader, Fairy Bai, urged them on all the way, and the group did not rest, galloping through the night.
Fortunately, everyone here is a martial artist and has internal energy to support them; otherwise, this chase would have been truly agonizing.
Before setting off, everyone had a general understanding of the situation at the front.
It is said that Su Qingyang was ambushed by a master of the evil path at the gathering place of the righteous martial arts sect a few days ago, with the intention of rescuing the traitor of the righteous path, Dugu Changshan. Su Qingyang fought with the master of the evil path, Li Hanxiao, but was no match for him and fled at night.
Su Qingyang launched a night raid and, together with Su Shou Guanyin, severely injured Li Hanxiao. However, he discovered the evil plot along the way and turned back to look for Dugu Changshan, only to find that he had already been taken away by another group of people.
Su Qingyang was furious and led a group of disciples from the Sword Pavilion to surround and intercept them, but the evil cultivators' demonic arts were too mysterious and difficult to track down.
In the vast martial arts world, finding one person is like searching for a needle in a haystack; all that is known is that several heretical sects are involved.
In desperation, Su Qingyang chased after the evil sect "Thousand Machine Puppet City" alone with his sword, and in one day he angrily killed twelve "Golden Thread Puppets", shocking all the evil sect masters in the city, and no one dared to fight him again.
Su Qingyang, alone with his sword, ventured deep into the city, forcing Dugu Changshan to reveal his whereabouts, and then went alone to the heretical sect "Wuwanghai".
Dugu Changshan was placed here, but unfortunately Su Qingyang was still a step too late. Wuwanghai was skilled in the evil sword and used the Supreme Sword Formation to resist Su Qingyang.
Su Qingyang fought against ten thousand swords alone, but because he was anxious for the clues, he was careless and was injured, and was poisoned with the "Three Corpses Severing Martial Arts".
Fortunately, the Guanyin of the Plain Hands, along with the experts from the Jade Palace, came to the rescue in time. The Guanyin of the Plain Hands was skilled in both medicine and poison and personally cured Su Qingyang of the poison. Two days after Su Qingyang recovered, he broke the Evil Sword Formation and killed 133 sword masters from the Boundless Sea.
Finally, Su Qingyang obtained the last clue and learned of Dugu Changshan's whereabouts. He then rushed to the evil sect's supreme leader, "Netherworld Blood River Sect," day and night.
Before Su Lin left, the last news that came was that Su Qingyang stood in front of the Evil Sect, blocking the way with his sword. He was certain that Dugu Changshan was hiding there, guarding against all evil forces.
The two sides were deadlocked, but fortunately, masters from various righteous sects learned of the situation and rushed to the scene.
Waves of experts, including those from the Sword Pavilion, arrived, and countless righteous people had already surrounded the Netherworld Blood River Sect behind Su Qingyang.
On the surface, it appears that a great battle is about to break out, but those who know the inside story are well aware that in this struggle between good and evil, the Sword Pavilion will likely win again.
Su Qingyang alone stirred up a storm in the martial arts world in just a few days. Now, with the help of experts from various sects, the Netherworld Blood River Sect is simply no match for him. The only outcome is that they will obediently hand over Dugu Changshan.
Su Qingyang was quite clever. He used the pretext of anger to break the arrogance of the other two evil sects in advance, preventing the three sects from joining forces and ultimately trapping the Blood Sect.
After several nights of rapid advances, Su Qingyang displayed the full power of his swift swordsmanship. Not only was his sword fast, but his style and demeanor were also extremely swift, giving his opponents no time to react.
"We're almost there."
After two days and one night of galloping, Fairy Bai informed the group: "The Netherworld Blood River Sect is not far ahead. In the past two days, Sword Gentleman has fought against more than thirty evil cultivators. The Netherworld Blood River Sect is already struggling to breathe. It seems that the dust should be settling down soon."
