The movements of the black-dressed person were extremely nimble. When she passed by the tree that Ling Tian was hiding in, she even borrowed the force of the kick to kick off the tree, almost landing on Ling Tian's face. This gave Ling Tian a fright. He thought to himself, Could it be that this lady has discovered me?
From the curvaceous figure of the black-dressed person, Ling Tian could already confirm that this was a lady! The wet clothes stuck to her body was extremely pleasing to the eye. At this moment, Ling Tian almost had the urge to whistle.
The other three from the Xiao family were not slow either. The three of them were almost the same, kicking off the tree that Ling Tian was hiding in and using the force of the kick to move forward. All four of them kicked at the same spot, causing a few drops of mud to fly onto Ling Tian's black mask.
Ling Tian could only sigh at his bad luck! He wished that he could throw these three old fellows to the ground and give them a good beating!
Seeing the four of them brushing past him, Ling Tian finally revealed his head. Under the black mask on his face, a pair of eyes as bright as the stars in the sky could be seen. Through the heavy rain, his gaze landed on the four of them as he silently prayed that the men in black would not be caught by Xiao FengYang and the other two. If that was the case, his plan of following the vine to find the melon would be ruined.
Only when the three of them had almost disappeared into the rain did Ling Tian make his move. It was fine if he did not fly, but he would soar into the sky! Spreading his arms, he was like an eagle gliding down from a height of ten thousand feet, smoothly drawing a graceful trajectory in the air. He was like a sharp arrow piercing through the air, shooting straight in the direction where the four people in front of him disappeared.
Not long after Ling Tian left, more than ten ghostly figures suddenly appeared in the darkness, heading towards the Xiao family's Ling family's courtyard without a single sound …
Layers of roofs flashed past their feet as the three of them chased closer and closer to them. All of their eyes were filled with killing intent. No matter who this person was or whether he had heard anything, just the fact that he was spying on them was enough to kill him!
The Xiao family actually met with such an incident on their first day in Sky Bearing! If they didn't catch and kill this guy, what face would the Xiao family have left? To suffer such a loss on the first day of entering Sky Bearing, wouldn't he become a laughing stock in the future?
Although the lightness skill of the night walker in front of them was high, her internal energy seemed to be insufficient. She would not be able to last long. Although her movements were still fast, the three of them could see that she was running out of energy! It was already certain that he would be captured! The three of them couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief. As long as they caught this person, they wouldn't be afraid that they wouldn't be able to force out the information that they were interested in.
They were already close to the city wall, and the three of them simultaneously increased their speed!
Xiao FengYang, who was the fastest, was already less than thirty feet away from the black-robed man! Suddenly, with a loud roar, he flew forward and struck out with his palm. The wind howled and wherever his inner energy went, even the raindrops were shot out like steel balls!
However, the black-clothed man knew how powerful this palm was. His body twisted strangely as he leaped forward, changing the direction of his advance and narrowly avoiding this palm. However, the distance between the two of them had shortened by quite a bit.
Ling Tian, who was following the four of them from afar, felt that something was amiss. The black-robed man's movements were indeed nimble and exquisite, with every muscle in her body being used to the extreme. Every movement of hers seemed to be able to increase her speed. While such an exquisite movement technique couldn't be compared to Ling Tian's Nine Heavens Roaming Dragon Steps, it wasn't inferior in any way! Ever since Ling Tian came to this world, this was the first time he had seen such an exquisite movement technique. If it was just based on the exquisiteness of her movement technique, she would not be inferior to Ye QingChen. Who would have thought that experts could be seen everywhere. But thinking about this, Ling Tian couldn't help but laugh. He was surprised by this person's exquisite movement technique, but he had overestimated this person's ability. Old Brother Ye's inner, outer, and lightness techniques had already reached the pinnacle, and were extremely balanced. Furthermore, he had tens of years of experience, so how could this black-robed man compare to him? This person's movement technique was exquisite, but in terms of speed, endurance, and many other aspects, he was lacking.
However, this was only because Old Brother Ye's starting point was too high. In all fairness, from the distance that the black-robed man was able to jump, although her inner strength had not reached the XianTian realm, it should be quite impressive. Such an expert, even if she wasn't Xiao FengYang's opponent, her exquisite movement technique was far superior to Xiao FengYang's! If she was purely running for her life, she would have long disappeared without a trace. With Xiao FengYang's half-baked movement technique in Ling Tian's eyes, it was impossible for him to be able to catch up to her!
At the same time, Ling Tian also noticed that the black-robed woman's direction hadn't changed since she started running. From beginning to end, she was always running in the same direction. Even if there were slight twists and turns in the middle, she would still return to her original direction. Ling Tian, who was a bystander, couldn't help but think: Could it be that this is a trap? Or is there another ambush?
As the raindrops hit his face, Ling Tian felt as though he was being pelted by hail. This made Ling Tian dispel his suspicions. Under such weather, it would not be a wise move to set up an ambush!
The situation in the distance changed again. The black-robed woman suddenly let out a light laugh and flew out like a bolt of lightning. Her posture was so beautiful that it was breathtaking. At this time, Xiao FengYang had also noticed that something was amiss. With a light wave of his right hand, the two people behind him also stopped and landed on the roof of a building, vaguely surrounding the black-robed woman. Xiao FengYang stared at the black-robed woman who was still forty feet away and asked, "Madam, to come here in the middle of the night and use such a trick to lure us here, what is your intention?"
Xiao FengYang's breathing was calm and his inner strength was steady. It was obvious that he still had some energy left. His tone was calm and gentle, as though he was chatting casually. Although he knew that the black-robed woman was definitely plotting something, Xiao FengYang was still calm and collected. It was obvious that he was extremely shrewd and was worthy of being the second in command of the Xiao family.
The black-robed woman was dressed in black and had a black veil covering her face. Yet, Xiao FengYang was able to tell that she was not only a woman, but also a married woman. His eyesight was not bad! Just based on this point, Ling Tian knew that he would not be able to do it. Ling Tian was able to differentiate between a man and a woman, and could even tell the level of martial arts a person possessed. However, he was unable to tell the difference between a married woman and a young girl like Xiao FengYang. He could not help but think in his heart, This Xiao family's second master's eyesight is actually so good. To be able to observe so much, could it be that he was once a pervert in the past?
Ever since the black-robed woman suddenly increased the distance between them, Xiao FengYang realized that this woman seemed to be luring the three of them to chase after her. He could not help but feel alarmed. If this black-robed woman had the ability to shake off the three of them from the start, but purposely acted as if she was about to run out of strength, and lured the three of them here, what was her intention?
The black-robed woman saw that the three of them had suddenly stopped in their tracks, and unexpectedly stopped as well. Standing on the roof amidst the wind and rain, she let out a tinkling laugh, "Second Master Xiao's reputation is indeed well-deserved. In such a dark night, in such a storm, Second Master is actually able to tell that this lowly concubine is a married woman and not a young girl. This is truly beyond this madam's expectations. Kekeke, Second Master Xiao has such knowledge of women, I presume that you must also be someone who has rolled around in the Fragrance Kingdom? My apologies, my apologies! With Second Master's eyesight, it would be a pity if you did not open a brothel. " Her tone was full of ridicule, but she did not answer Xiao FengYang's question. Instead, she brought the topic back to Xiao FengYang.
"What a powerful woman, what sharp words!" Ling Tian secretly praised in his heart. It was as if they had a tacit understanding of each other, because these words were exactly what Ling Tian wanted to say. With Xiao FengYang's ability to distinguish between women, it would be a pity if he did not become a brothel owner. If the number two person of the Xiao family personally took charge of a brothel, it would really be an endless stream of customers … Ling Tian viciously thought in his heart.
In the dark night, it was impossible to see Xiao FengYang's expression, but Ling Tian thought that Xiao FengYang's expression at this moment must be extremely interesting, because his voice also became hurried and cold, with a hint of anger, "Madam must be joking. Without Madam's help, even if this Xiao wanted to open a brothel, I'm afraid there would be no pillar of support."
Ling Tian almost wanted to clap his hands and cheer! Xiao FengYang was also a quick-witted person, and this sentence of his was extremely interesting. Not only did he return the black-robed woman's ridicule, but he also insinuated that she was a prostitute, and even a brothel madam. From this, it could be seen that his tongue was extremely sharp. It seemed that this Second Master of the Xiao Clan was not only shrewd and resourceful, but he was also very clever with his words.
The black-robed woman laughed coldly, as if containing endless hatred, "Second master is too polite. Second master does not have that kind of business now, and even if you want to do it, you still need to learn from this lowly concubine. However, this lowly concubine has a brothel here, but it still lacks a star. I have long heard that the little princess of the Xiao family is an outstanding beauty, proficient in zither, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, songs, and so on. This lowly concubine is very fascinated, and if the little princess really arrives, this lowly brothel will definitely welcome her with open arms!"
The heavy rain from the end of spring to the beginning of summer continued to fall, and the four people's hair and clothes were constantly dripping with rain. However, when the black-robed woman said this, Xiao FengYang's heart suddenly felt as if it had fallen into an ice cave! He said hoarsely, "Your target is Xue 'er?" There was already an uncontrollable rage in his voice!
The black-robed woman laughed heartily, and her body trembled with laughter. "Second master is indeed worthy of the title of 'wise', your divine foresight, and your ability to devise strategies, this lowly concubine is extremely impressed!" Her words seemed to be praising Xiao FengYang, but in reality, she was pointing at his nose and scolding him. There was no difference. She immediately changed her tone, and became extremely vicious. "However, second master has chased this lowly concubine for so long, I'm afraid that the little princess of the Xiao family is already at this lowly concubine's place, preparing to receive guests. Hehehe … However, she is no longer called Xue 'er, this lowly concubine has given her a stage name, Little Peony. Hahaha … "
