General Jiang and the others did not know that there were five people following closely behind them.
Three of them were the Supreme Elder of the Xing Wu Academy, Yao Xue, and Tao Qianqing.
The three of them did not tell Zhao Yaxuan about their plan to break the prisoner carriage. After all, Zhao Yaxuan was slightly weaker and it would not be good if anything happened to her.
The other two were the two elders of the Xing Wu Academy. They were naturally the trusted subordinates of the Supreme Elder. Otherwise, the Supreme Elder would not have called them over.
Originally, the Supreme Elder did not want to make a move. If anything went wrong, the Xing Wu Academy would be attacked by the Fourth Marquis Mansion.
However, he could not stop Yao Xue from begging him. In the end, he decided to make a move.
"Junior Sister, wait until I tell you to make a move. When the time comes, I will hold General Jiang back while the four of you go and rescue Xiaoxiao," the Supreme Elder said.
"Okay." Yao Xue, Tao Qianqing, and the others nodded.
The few of them followed cautiously for a while and only made their move when they entered a dense forest.
In order to prevent being recognized, the few of them were masked and dressed in black.
The Grand Supreme Elder took the lead, charging directly at General Jiang who was at the forefront.
Hearing the sound of wind behind him, General Jiang immediately turned around. The moment he turned around, he saw a black-clothed man holding a rune sword shooting towards him.
He immediately frowned because he could tell that the black-clothed man was not weak. He definitely had the strength of a fourth grade martialist.
General Jiang did not dare to be careless. He quickly took out his rune sword.
The two of them started fighting. Both of them were fourth grade martialists and were much stronger than the others. Therefore, General Jiang's subordinates did not dare to attack the Supreme Elder. Instead, they cautiously waited at the side.
After a round of fighting, General Jiang was at a disadvantage because his opponent was obviously much stronger than him.
At this moment, General Jiang did not show any signs of fear. He coldly said. "Are you the Supreme Elder?"
If it was not the Supreme Elder, he did not believe that anyone would be so bold as to break the prisoner carriage.
At this moment, the Supreme Elder naturally did not say anything. Instead, he used all his strength to deal with General Jiang.
In this way, General Jiang was even more passive.
While General Jiang was in dire straits, Yao Xue and the other three, who had been waiting for an opportunity, immediately charged towards the prison cart.
Seeing the other four black-clothed men rushing over, General Jiang's subordinates hurriedly raised the weapons in their hands to deal with them.
However, even though there were many of them, they were quickly scattered by Yao Xue and the other three.
After all, Yao Xue and the other three were Late Stage Rank 3 martial artists. Although they were few in number, their strength was tyrannical.
"Senior Sister, you go save Xiaoxiao. The three of us will stall them!" After exchanging a few moves, Tao Qianqing shouted.
As soon as she finished speaking, Yao Xue immediately shot towards the prison cart.
As there were no more obstacles in front of Yao Xue, she effortlessly broke the railings of the prison cart.
However, just when the others thought that she had rescued Guo Xiaoxiao, a black shadow suddenly sprang out from behind a big tree.
The moment the black shadow appeared, it immediately struck towards Yao Xue.
If Yao Xue continued to save Guo Xiaoxiao, she would definitely be injured by the black figure's palm. Hence, she could only dodge to the side.
After she stood still, she saw a very elegant middle-aged man standing in front of her.
Before she could think of what to do, the middle-aged man rushed towards her again.
At this moment, the expressions of Yao Xue and the others immediately changed. This person was clearly a Rank 4 martial artist.
Knowing that Yao Xue was not a match for the other party, Tao Qianqing could only go forward to help. However, if that happened, it would be impossible for them to rescue Guo Xiaoxiao.
They could only hope that the Supreme Elder would defeat General Jiang and come over to help. After all, the Supreme Elder was clearly much stronger than General Jiang.
It was also at this moment that another old man in embroidered robes walked out from behind another large tree.
When they saw the old man in brocade robes, the expressions of Yao Xue and the others changed even more. This was because they realized that the old man's strength was unfathomable. In other words, he was definitely at least a Rank 4 martial artist.
In this case, they were clearly at a disadvantage.
After the old man in brocade robes walked out, he did not make a move. Instead, he calmly smiled at the Supreme Elder and said, "Elder Gu Cai, how have you been?"
Hearing this, the expressions of Yao Xue and the others changed again. This was because the old man had called out the Supreme Elder's name.
In other words, the old man had already recognized their identities.
Hearing this, the Supreme Elder pushed General Jiang back with a palm. Then, he turned around and frowned at the old man in brocade robes. "Advisor Mo, how did you recognize me?"
The old man in brocade robes smiled again. "In the vicinity of Xing Wu City, other than you, Gu Cai, there's probably no one who can use the First Willow Sword Technique so well."
"Advisor Mo, it seems like you already knew that we would come." The Supreme Elder Gu Cai's expression was ugly.
On the other side, General Jiang, who was pushed back by Gu Cai, did not rush over to attack. Instead, he smiled and said, "Supreme Elder, we are just being prepared."
"If that's the case, then we can only fight to the death!" Gu Cai said coldly.
However, Advisor Mo raised his hand and said, "Elder Gu, this is too serious. There's no need for us to fight to the death. If you leave with them now, we won't make things difficult for you."
Such words made Gu Cai ponder. He could see that it was almost impossible for them to take Guo Xiaoxiao away. Therefore, he had to consider the other party's words.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Yao Xue suddenly rushed towards the prisoner's carriage.
"You're courting death!" Seeing this situation, the scholarly middle-aged man said coldly.
Before he finished speaking, his entire body had already rushed towards Yao Xue.
Seeing this, Tao Qianqing hurriedly attacked the scholarly middle-aged man with her sword.
However, the scholarly middle-aged man's figure flashed and actually dodged Tao Qianqing's sword. Then, he still slapped Yao Xue with his palm.
If Yao Xue still went to save Guo Xiaoxiao, she would definitely be injured by the scholarly middle-aged man.
Yao Xue had no choice but to quickly retreat.
At this moment, unexpectedly, a black shadow suddenly rushed out from behind a large tree on Yao Xue's side.
This black shadow rushed towards the prisoner's carriage as soon as it appeared.
"You're courting death!" The scholarly middle-aged man snorted coldly and then slapped the black shadow with his palm.
At this moment, Yao Xue and Tao Qianqing recognized who this black shadow was. They knew that this was their only chance to save Guo Xiaoxiao. Therefore, they immediately brandished their swords and attacked the scholarly middle-aged man.
This black shadow was none other than Lin Long, who had been waiting for an opportunity to make a move.
With his powerful Divine Sense, he knew long ago that the Supreme Elder and the others were following closely behind General Jiang's group. He also knew that General Jiang had a backup plan.
Therefore, he had been biding his time until this moment to make a move.
If the scholarly middle-aged man continued to attack Lin Long now, he would definitely be injured by Tao Qianqing and Yao Xue.
He had no choice but to dodge backwards.
How could Tao Qianqing and Yao Xue give him the time to deal with Lin Long? Therefore, they continued to press forward.
As for Lin Long, he seized this opportunity to rush into the prisoner's carriage and break the iron chains that bound Guo Xiaoxiao's hands. Then, he carried Guo Xiaoxiao and charged into the dense forest on the right.
"You're courting death!" Elder Mo couldn't help but roar angrily when he saw this.
Then, he chased after Lin Long and Guo Xiaoxiao. However, he had just moved when the Supreme Elder, Gu Cai, blocked his way.
Gu Cai recognized Lin Long as well, so he naturally stood in front of the elder.
This was because he knew that with the elder's abilities, Lin Long and Guo Xiaoxiao would have no chance of escaping if he chased after them.
At this moment, the only person left was General Jiang. Therefore, he chased after Lin Long and Guo Xiaoxiao without hesitation.
Although he was far away, General Jiang could clearly see that the person who kidnapped Guo Xiaoxiao was Lin Long.
"Lin Li, don't even think of escaping!" General Jiang roared angrily as he chased after Lin Long and Guo Xiaoxiao as fast as he could.
In his opinion, it wouldn't be difficult for him to catch up with Lin Long who was carrying Guo Xiaoxiao given his abilities as a level-four warrior.
However, in the next moment, a pair of wings suddenly sprouted from the back of his opponent, who was gradually getting closer, and caused his expression to turn ugly.
Then, just like that, the other party flew up into the void right before his eyes.
This fella is a level-four warrior? General Jiang couldn't help but be stunned.
"No, that's not right. This fella is using a flying device!" General Jiang quickly realized this.
Where did this fella get a flying device from? General Jiang was naturally shocked because a flying device was a priceless item. Even Xie Cheng, the son of the Fourth Prince, didn't seem to have such a thing.
The only thing he could do now was to chase as fast as he could.
However, no matter how fast he was, how could he catch up with Lin Long? Soon, Lin Long disappeared from his sight.
"Damn it!" At this moment, the helpless General Jiang could only curse angrily.
What made him happy was that at this moment, a familiar voice came from behind him. "General Jiang, where did they escape to?"
General Jiang turned around and saw a person flying in the void behind him. It was none other than the elder in the brocade robe, Advisor Mo.
"Advisor Mo, they escaped that way." General Jiang hurriedly pointed to the right and said, "That fella has a flying device."
"I already felt that something was wrong. Fortunately, I caught up … Alright, go back and help them. I'll go after those two." As he said this, Advisor Mo flapped his wings and directly chased in the direction General Jiang pointed.
Advisor Mo had the strength of a level-four warrior at the peak. Because of this, he could activate the wings on his back.
He didn't rely on flying devices like Lin Long, so his speed was undoubtedly faster than Lin Long's. Because of this, he was confident that he could catch up with Lin Long and Xie Cheng.
…
"Junior, how can you fly in the void … Could it be … Are you a level-four warrior at the peak?" Guo Xiaoxiao recovered some of her strength after taking the top-grade healing medicine and Energizing Pill that Lin Long gave her. Otherwise, she wouldn't have the strength to speak.
"It's just a flying device." Lin Long smiled.
"Is that so? Junior is also very powerful … After all, many people haven't even touched a flying device before …" Guo Xiaoxiao said.
Although Guo Xiaoxiao acted as if she was a thousand miles away from Lin Long, she felt extremely happy now that Lin Long was hugging her.
She even had the thought of being hugged by Lin Long like this all the time.
"Junior, I really have to thank you this time," Guo Xiaoxiao said again.
After saying this, Guo Xiaoxiao's expression suddenly turned ugly. She realized that there seemed to be a figure flying in the void behind them, closely chasing after them.
"Junior, it seems like someone is catching up," Guo Xiaoxiao hurriedly said.
"Yes." Lin Long nodded.
Even without Guo Xiaoxiao's reminder, he had already sensed it with his powerful divine will.
"Junior, you should go first. Don't worry about me," Guo Xiaoxiao said.
Someone who could chase after them like this was definitely a level-four warrior at the peak. Knowing that Lin Long was no match for the other party, and that if they were caught, both of them would fall into the other party's hands, Guo Xiaoxiao directly said this.
"Senior, don't worry. He won't be able to catch us." Lin Long smiled.
As his voice fell, Lin Long suddenly flew downwards.
The one chasing closely behind him was naturally the brocade-robed elder, Teacher Mo. When he saw Lin Long flying down, he immediately chased after him.
After landing, his eyebrows immediately furrowed slightly. Because there were many trees here, he actually did not discover where the other party had landed.
However, he was not worried, because he knew that Lin Long and Gu Cai were nearby. As long as he was patient, with his divine will, he would quickly find the other party.
"Brat, stop hiding. No matter how you hide, you will still be found by me. So, why don't you be more straightforward and directly stand out."
"You don't need to think about others coming to save you, because they won't be able to catch up. Even if they do, they will be held back by my people."
Advisor Mo said as he searched.
The reason why he said this was naturally because the strength of the Supreme Elder Gu Cai had not reached the peak of a level-four warrior. Otherwise, he would have already caught up to Lin Long and Gu Cai.
Is it here? After searching for a while, Advisor Mo suddenly stopped in front of a lush bush. This was because he sensed that there was a sound coming from the bush. It should be the existence of a living creature.
Then, he fiercely attacked the bushes with his palm.
What made him depressed was that after his palm attack, a wild rabbit that had obviously swallowed an Energy Stone ran out.
As soon as this wild rabbit ran out, Advisor Mo directly sent it flying with a palm attack.
"Brat, you have escaped this calamity. However, no matter what, you will still fall into my hands." As he said this, Advisor Mo continued to search forward.
After a while, he stopped in front of a rock because he sensed that there was obviously some kind of warrior's aura behind this rock.
"Brat, you are dead!" As he thought of this, Advisor Mo once again sent a palm attack over.
"Bang!"
This rock immediately shattered. Soon after, another wild rabbit that had swallowed an Energy Stone ran out from behind this rock.
Advisor Mo could not help but let his guard down. However, at this moment, he felt a powerful force coming towards him from behind.
