Rumble rumble rumble … …
Like a clap of thunder, Ying Xiao crushed his way through the fog and arrived in front of Lin Tian Yi. The long strings of fog and the lines of sand that Lin Tian Yi laid down were all completely trampled by him, but he suddenly stopped a meter in front of Lin Tian Yi.
"This again?" Ying Xiao said.
Lin Tian Yi's expression changed.
If Ying Xiao took another step forward, it would be the Traceless Jing that he had just used. But Ying Xiao just had to stop here.
Compared to the powerful defense and rebound effect, the most troublesome part of the Traceless Jing was still the word "traceless". When the truly brilliant Traceless Jing was used, it could not be detected by normal perception methods.
But Ying Xiao, this person just stood there, his Soul Power was released heroically. This reckless yet somewhat destructive soul power kept on touching the Traceless Jing, and the Traceless Jing displayed its effects, continuously defending and rebounding.
The rebounding soul power did not cause any harm to Ying Xiao, but it gave him a signal: there was an obstruction in front of him. And he had already experienced this obstruction when he first entered the North Style Academy — Lin Tian Biao's Traceless Jing made Ying Xiao take a punch from him.
So he stopped in his tracks, and while moving horizontally, he waved his hand at Lu Ping: "How is it?"
"Not good." Lu Ping said while paying attention to Ying Xiao's actions, and gained some inspiration.
Ying Xiao's soul power was too flamboyant, anyone who did not want to perceive it would be able to detect it, and even its changes could be easily observed. As a result, the Traceless Jing that Lin Tian Yi used was not only discovered by Ying Xiao, but also by Lu Ping's side.
Then he saw Ying Xiao take a few steps horizontally, and the lines of sand that would cause trouble for Leng Qing were directly trampled on by him with a single step. The Traceless Jing, which was known as the number one defense ability in the cultivation world, was actually bypassed by him in the end.
He immediately blocked Lu Ping behind him. Ying Xiao pointed at Leng Qing who was facing him: "I'm not here to save you."
Leng Qing snorted coldly. To be able to become one of the top figures of the new generation in the Dark Academy, her methods were not limited to this. After the Ying Xiao interrupted Lin Tian Yi's rhythm, a silver light immediately drilled out from the soles of Leng Qing's feet under the gray cloak. It spiraled upwards, and in an instant, it had already cut off all the lines of sand that were tightly binding her. Then, without stopping, it formed a revolving protection around her. As she moved forward, the threads of sand that were entangling her would be severed by the rotating silver light.
Leng Qing, who had regained his freedom, stood on the left and right with Ying Xiao, sandwiching Lin Tian Yi. Lin Tian Yi's expression did not change, he took a step back, but Ying Xiao and Leng Qing immediately followed. They did not attack rashly, but maintained the pressure on Lin Tianyi.
"I say, the two of you, this shouldn't be your mission this time, right?" Lin Tianyi didn't seem to be flustered as she spoke calmly.
Leng Qing didn't reply, but Ying Xiao didn't care at all: "In any case, I can't handle it. That's Lu Chenfeng we're talking about, only that lunatic would go and challenge him."
"So that's how it is." Lin Tian Yi immediately guessed the gist of it. Clearly, their plan had been leaked in the Dark Underworld. But to the Dark Academy, they didn't have the ability to intervene on a large scale in the territory of the Four Great Academies. In the end, the three factions could only choose their elites to sneak into the North Style Academy. In the end, Lu Chenfeng's intervention was beyond their expectations. Faced with an expert with five spirits connected, their original plan was silently stopped just like that. As for Xu Weifeng's challenge, in the eyes of Ying Xiao and Leng Qing, it was clearly a crazy move, and they didn't care. The factions of the Dark Academy had never been partners, and even the Four Great Academies had never been friendly on the surface.
Lin Tian Yi, who had sorted out all of this, immediately smiled and said: "If it's just for Lu Ping, then … …" He made a "please" gesture to Lu Ping who was behind Ying Xiao. He then took a big step back and pressed down with his palm. The lines of sand that he had gathered using the Thousand Worldly Dust immediately ceased. The Traceless Mirror Defense he had set up was also canceled.
Leng Qing and Ying Xiao looked at each other. They didn't completely trust Lin Tian Yi's intention to retreat, but they didn't dare to tarry here for too long. This was the territory of the North Style Academy, and everyone around them was their mortal enemy.
As a result, Leng Qing didn't retract her silver light defense, and Ying Xiao didn't retract the power of soul emitted from his body either. The two of them watched Lin Tian Yi as they slowly moved towards Lu Ping.
As the two of them moved, Lin Tianyi finally escaped from their pincer attack. He immediately retreated. Compared to Ying Xiao and Leng Qing, he was much more decisive. After a few steps, he disappeared into the fog.
Leng Qing extended her perception and discovered that Lin Tian Yi was indeed getting further and further away. Only then did she calm down a little. And Ying Xiao, who had walked to Lu Ping's side, finally retracted the power of soul emitted from his body. At this moment, Lu Ping was heavily injured and couldn't bear it any longer. His soul power was released naturally, but it was enough to injure Lu Ping. If Lu Ping used it several times, he might even be able to kill Lu Ping.
"Can you get up?" Ying Xiao bent down to help Lu Ping up.
"I'm alright." Lu Ping said, and managed to get up with Ying Xiao's help.
He was heavily injured this time, but he was extremely familiar with his injuries. During the days when the organization was being experimented on, when were his injuries not caused by his own power of soul? His endurance for this kind of injury was the strongest.
"What do we do now?" Ying Xiao asked Leng Qing.
"He's your friend, so I'll naturally leave him to you." Leng Qing's expression was cold. She covered her head with her cloak and immediately activated Cloud Recesses, disappearing without a trace.
"Thank you." Lu Ping said to the air.
"We don't owe each other anything." A reply came from the air.
"Eh, what did you do to her?" Ying Xiao asked in astonishment.
"I gave her a steamed bun to eat." Lu Ping said.
"A steamed bun?" Ying Xiao was at a loss.
Leng Qing, who had already concealed herself and was about to leave, almost fell when she heard Lu Ping's words.
Did that guy really think it was because of a steamed bun? A steamed bun in exchange for a life? How could there be such a cheap thing! What Leng Qing was thinking about was definitely not the steamed bun, but the fact that the steamed bun meant that Lu Ping knew she was in the chest. But when they passed through the North Style Academy's mountain gate, he didn't say anything about it. From this point of view, Lu Ping had actually spared her life.
A life for a life, this was called not owing each other anything. As for a steamed bun … …
"I'll treat you to two next time." Leng Qing, who was nowhere to be seen, continued to speak unhappily.
"You're welcome." Lu Ping said.
"Bastard!" Who would have thought that Leng Qing would suddenly curse. Lu Ping and Ying Xiao were still at a loss, but Leng Qing's figure had already reappeared. She was less than two meters away from the two, her right hand stretched forward. A screen of light spread out with the touch of her finger, forming a hemisphere, trapping the three of them within.
Jing Wuhen had actually created a cage, trapping the three of them within.
Lin Tianyi's figure once again walked out of the mist. In such a short period of time, Lin Tianyi's complexion seemed to have become a bit more haggard. This cage-like Jing Wuhen was clearly a huge burden on him.
"Hand over Lu Ping, and I'll let you two leave." He said.
