Originally, Xiao Chen wanted to kill him while he was down. However, who would have thought that Frost Python, the Holy Son of the Heavenly Sage Sect, would choose to run away without any hesitation? He did not even care about the spiritual pool in front of him.
Without any hesitation, Frost Python turned around and ran away. At the same time, the other three disciples of the Heavenly Sage Sect also turned around and ran away.
Seeing this, Xiao Chen was stunned at first. Then, he naturally led his people to chase after them. Unfortunately, Frost Python and the other three were determined to run away. They had no intention of chasing after Xiao Chen and the others. After running for a few miles, Xiao Chen finally chose to give up when he realized that it would be difficult to catch up with Frost Python and the other three for a while.
Seeing Frost Python and the other three disappear from his sight, Xiao Chen sighed inwardly, "Looks like I can't underestimate him. Although he's a little annoying, he's really good in other aspects."
Frost Python turned around and ran away without any hesitation. Xiao Chen did not think that this was a shameful behavior. On the contrary, if Frost Python had braced himself to stay and fight with them, Xiao Chen would have looked down on him even more.
The reason was simple. Knowing that there was no chance of winning, he still forced himself to fight. This was not bravery, but stupidity.
Many people, especially those who thought they were of noble status, would often do stupid things for the sake of face that they didn't need, even though they knew they shouldn't do it.
And this kind of result was usually seeking one's own death.
However, Frost Python was different. Knowing that he was no match for them, he made the wisest choice. He did not care about his identity as the Holy Son and his so-called face.
Perhaps in the hearts of Frost Python, no, in the hearts of the Holy Sons and Holy Daughters of the Tianhe Continent, their face was not something that could be thrown away just because of one escape. Even a three-year-old child knew this principle. However, as people grew older, they gradually forgot this simple principle.
Everyone stopped chasing. Just like Xiao Chen, Emperor Qing did not despise the Frost Python for escaping. He only said calmly, "This fellow is still the same as before. Xiao Chen, you have to be careful from now on. The Frost Python is very vengeful. I'm afraid it will keep its eyes on you from now on."
Hearing this, Xiao Chen smiled noncommittally. "Even if this didn't happen, I don't think he would let me go, right?"
Upon hearing Xiao Chen's words, the Qing Emperor glanced at Qin Shuirou and laughed heartily. That's right, even if this didn't happen, the Frost Python wouldn't let Xiao Chen off so easily. Hence, it didn't matter.
He was indeed a little disappointed that he couldn't take the opportunity to get rid of the Frost Python. However, there was nothing he could do. After all, the Frost Python was a Saint. It would be strange if he could get rid of him so easily.
Xiao Chen looked in the direction where the Frost Python and the other three escaped. That was where the Sacred Yin Sect was located. Vaguely, he had a bad feeling. However, he did not say anything and turned to Luo Dawei, Ding Tao, and Jiang Hua.
"Let's go back and find the people from the Sacred Sun Sect."
Go back and find the people from the Sacred Sun Sect? Upon hearing Xiao Chen's words, Luo Dawei immediately said angrily, "Prospective Saint, what do you mean? Now that the people from the Sacred Sun Sect have escaped, it's a good opportunity for us to snatch the spiritual pool. Why do we have to go back? Do you want to leave the spiritual pool to this woman? "
Now was a good opportunity to snatch the spiritual pool from the Sacred Sun Sect. However, Xiao Chen did not do so. Luo Dawei naturally guessed that Xiao Chen wanted to leave the spiritual pool to Qin Shuirou. Hence, he did not snatch it.
Jiang Hua also said coldly, "Prospective Saint, don't forget your identity. You are a disciple of the Ancient Sacred Sun Sect."
The two could be said to be echoing each other. Hearing this, Xiao Chen's face darkened. "Who are you to tell me what to do? Moreover, even if we snatch the spiritual pool, the Frost Python will not be able to withstand it. The Frost Python has already escaped to the Sacred Yin Sect."
Xiao Chen did have the intention to share the spiritual pool with Qin Shuirou. After all, Qin Shuirou was his woman. Xiao Chen did not want her to bear too much pressure in the Sacred Sun Sect. Of course, the main reason why he turned around and left now was because he could not hold on to the spiritual pool.
The Frost Python ran towards the disciples of the Sacred Yin Sect. Don't forget that the Sacred Yin Sect's Holy Maiden, Yun Luan, also had quite a bit of killing intent towards him. With the two of them together, what do you think would happen?
Precisely because he could not hold on to the spiritual pool, Xiao Chen did not want to waste time and avoided them.
Regardless of whether Luo Dawei and Jiang Hua understood his meaning, Xiao Chen pulled Qin Shuirou and left first. Seeing this, Ding Tao naturally followed closely behind. The Qing Emperor looked in the direction that the Frost Python and the other three had fled and followed with a faint smile. In the end, Luo Dawei and Jiang Hua's faces turned ugly. However, they had no choice but to follow Xiao Chen's orders.
Xiao Chen left with his people and did not try to snatch the spiritual pool of the Sacred Yin Sect. At the same time, the Frost Python and the others who were running all the way met the disciples of the Sacred Yin Sect led by Yun Luan.
When the disciples of the two sects met by chance, both sides immediately became nervous. When Yun Luan saw that there were only four people from the Sacred Yin Sect, the look in her eyes became unfriendly.
The battle for the Hundred Spirits Pool had just begun and the Sacred Yin Sect had already lost one person. No matter what the reason was, this was definitely a great opportunity.
Sensing the change in Yun Luan's expression, the Frost Python's face darkened. However, he still said patiently, "Yun Luan, wait a moment."
It was a sign of weakness. Hearing this, Yun Luan said indifferently, "What? You, the Frost Python, still want to beg for mercy? "
"Haha, Yun Luan, you think too much. I, the Frost Python, will not go so far as to beg for mercy. Moreover, if we really fight, you won't have any advantage. What I mean is that we should join forces. What do you think?" The Frost Python laughed.
Qin Shuirou's departure caused the Sacred Yin Sect to lose one person. With such a lineup, the Sacred Yin Sect would definitely be in a passive position, let alone find Xiao Chen. Therefore, when the Frost Python met Yun Luan, he immediately thought of joining forces with her. After all, the Frost Python could tell from Yun Luan's gaze that she had a murderous intent towards Xiao Chen.
Hearing the Frost Python's words, Yun Luan laughed, "Join forces? Frost Python, do you think I will agree? "
"You will because we have a common enemy. Only if we join forces will we have a chance to teach Xiao Chen a lesson. Yun Luan, think carefully. The Ancient Sacred Yin Sect sent Emperor Qing this time. In a one-on-one battle, no matter if it's you or me, who is Emperor Qing's opponent?" The Frost Python said.
He was confident that Yun Luan would definitely agree because both of them hated Xiao Chen. Since they had a common enemy, it would be easy for them to reach a consensus.
Hearing this, Yun Luan pondered for a moment before saying unhurriedly, "What you said makes sense. However, we can't kill him in the Soul Seal Sacred Array. At most, we can teach him a lesson. What can I gain by joining forces with you?"
