That person was none other than Jing Xuan.
Linlong had used the Instant Tracking Talisman to get close to her, so he wasn't surprised to see her.
"Lin Li!" Jing Xuan cried out in surprise when she saw Linlong.
"You're injured?" Jing Xuan couldn't help but ask when she saw Linlong's appearance.
"I guess so." Linlong smiled bitterly.
Jing Xuan looked at Linlong, wanting to say something but hesitated. In the end, she gritted her teeth and said, "Lin Li, you saved me before and let me go just now. You didn't make things difficult for me. I'm grateful, but I'm a disciple of the Sacred Gate after all, so I can't let you go."
"I understand you." Linlong nodded.
After interacting with Jing Xuan for so long, he understood her character. He knew that she was indeed grateful to him, but she would still choose the Demon Gate for such a big matter.
Of course, understanding her didn't mean that Linlong agreed with her actions. He was helpless because he couldn't stop her at all.
"Lin Li, let's recite the rune and leave the secret realm now. Once we're out of the secret realm, I'll definitely plead with the Sect Leader to not make things difficult for you. I believe they won't make things difficult for you on account that you're a disciple of the Sacred Gate," Jing Xuan said.
As she spoke, she walked in front of Linlong, looking like she was about to recite the rune.
Linlong was naturally unwilling to leave just like that, but he really had no other choice now.
Once we're out, I'll immediately release the rune puppet and think of a way to leave. Linlong planned in his heart.
He naturally wouldn't believe Jing Xuan's thoughts because he knew that the people of the Demon Gate wouldn't let him have it easy with what he did now. Hence, he naturally wouldn't give up without putting up a fight.
While Linlong was planning in his heart, Jing Xuan had already started to recite the rune.
At this moment, Linlong suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a faint blood mist in the distance. Once this blood mist appeared, the surrounding suddenly became even more strange and eerie.
Could it be that something was going to happen? Linlong couldn't help but think so.
Then, he found that Jing Xuan's rune didn't seem to have any effect. Because after Jing Xuan silently chanted the rune, they still didn't move.
Linlong could not help but heave a sigh of relief when he saw that. He could still go and snatch the Thousand Demon Flames. If he was really sent out of the rune, who knows how long he would have to wait before he could enter the secret realm again.
"What's going on? Why isn't the Leave Rune working? "Jing Xuan, who noticed something was wrong, cried out in surprise.
"Did I make a mistake when I was chanting the rune to leave?" Jing Xuan mumbled.
At that moment, she could not help but silently recite the rune to leave again.
However, what made her depressed was that the Leaving Rune still had no effect.
Jing Xuan didn't want to give up, so she tried a few more times, but the result was the same every time. They still stayed in the same place without moving.
"Senior Sister Jingxuan, why don't you look into the distance?" Lin Long said.
Jing Xuan followed Lin Long's finger and looked over. Only then did she discover the strange blood mist.
"What's going on?" Looking at the blood mist, Jing Xuan was also stunned. It seemed that she did not know what the blood mist was.
After watching for a while, Jing Xuan walked towards the blood mist. After walking for a while, Jing Xuan directly entered the blood mist. As soon as she entered, she immediately came back out. It seemed like there was something inside that was trying to expel her.
Then, she walked back to Linlong's side.
"Senior Sister Jingxuan, what is that blood mist?" Linlong asked curiously.
"I don't know." Jing Xuan shook her head and continued, "I just feel that there's some kind of poison in the blood mist. Once I approach it, I feel dizzy and my vision blurry. It's even more uncomfortable when I walk in. Not only do I feel dizzy and my vision blurry, I can't even use the energy in my body."
"Oh, is that so." Linlong could not help but look at the blood mist again.
"I seem to have an antidote pill on me. Let me try." Jing Xuan quickly took out an antidote pill and swallowed it.
After a while, she walked in front of the blood mist again. She only paused for a while before she walked into the blood mist again. This time, she stayed a little longer. However, it was only a little longer. She could not stay any longer. In the end, she could only walk out.
After returning to Linlong's side, Jing Xuan frowned and said, "This antidote pill has no effect on the blood mist."
Not being able to use the escape rune to leave seemed to be related to the blood mist. However, she had no way to deal with the blood mist now. She could only sit beside Linlong and stare blankly.
After a while, Jing Xuan muttered to herself, "I wonder if Senior Sister Qing Han and the others can leave the secret realm. It would be great if we could meet them."
Thinking about it, she thought of looking for the others.
Then, she stood up. It was at this moment that footsteps sounded from afar.
This sound made Jing Xuan stop. Very quickly, a youth appeared in front of her.
When the youth saw Jing Xuan, he was instantly delighted. When he saw Linlong behind Jing Xuan, the joy on his face became even stronger.
"Greetings, Senior Sister Jing Xuan," the youth said respectfully.
"En." Jing Xuan nodded. Then, she continued, "Cao Li, are you alone?"
"Yes. I gathered with a few other Senior Brothers. However, we were separated after that," Cao Li said.
Then, Cao Li moved the topic to Linlong. He was extremely happy. "Senior Sister Jing Xuan, did you capture this Lin Li?"
"You can say that," Jing Xuan replied.
"That's great," Cao Li said happily. Then, he asked, "Senior Sister Jing Xuan, can I have a request?"
"En, what request?" Jing Xuan asked.
"Can you hand this Lin Li over to me? I will deal with him. However, I am not trying to steal your credit. After we leave the secret realm, I will say in front of the Sect Master and the elders that you captured him yourself," Cao Li said.
"What do you mean?" Jing Xuan didn't understand.
"Senior Sister Jing Xuan, you don't know. Senior Brother Cao Cheng is my cousin. I suspect that his death has something to do with this Lin Li. So, I must take revenge!" Cao Li said to Jing Xuan while glaring at Linlong.
He thought that after he said that, Jing Xuan would definitely hand Linlong over to him. He didn't think that Jing Xuan would directly shake her head. "No."
"Senior Sister Jing Xuan, are you worried that I will go back on my words and take all your credit?" Seeing Jing Xuan like this, Cao Li couldn't help but feel anxious.
"How about this. I will give all my valuable things to Senior Sister Jing Xuan. What do you think?" As he said that, Cao Li took out some things from his runic spatial ring.
