Advisor Mo hurriedly turned around and met the attack with his palm.
At this moment, he could naturally tell that the person who attacked him from behind was Lin Long.
Lin Long used a rune sword, so at this moment, he attacked Advisor Mo with a streak of sword qi. Moreover, because he had activated the Cold Moon Ice Technique, the sword qi was like a cold moon.
Seeing that this was an ice-attribute technique, Advisor Mo's expression involuntarily changed. However, what surprised him even more was that Lin Long's sword technique was clearly somewhat unpredictable. Advisor Mo's palm strike was supposed to hit, but he did not expect that the opponent's sword qi, which was like a cold moon, would dodge his palm strike and then attack his left shoulder.
The force of the attack was solid, and Advisor Mo was directly sent flying before crashing into a large tree behind him.
This attack directly caused him to suffer a significant injury. Fortunately, although his palm strike did not hit the opponent's sword qi, it dissolved most of it. Otherwise, his injury would have been even more serious.
After crashing onto the ground, he hurriedly stood up. At this moment, half of his body was actually still in a state of numbness. It was obvious that the opponent's ice-attribute technique was extremely powerful.
It was also at this moment that the other party attacked again.
"You're courting death!" Advisor Mo roared angrily, and at the same time, he sent out another palm strike.
His opponent's sword technique was still unpredictable, but this time, he was prepared. How could he let his opponent take advantage of an opening like before?
His palm strike was aimed at the opponent's right chest. Once he used this move, no matter how exquisite the opponent's sword technique was, he would definitely be forced to retreat.
What he did not expect was that at this critical moment, the opponent actually did not have the thought of dodging his palm strike, and the sword qi was still aimed at his chest.
This was a completely life-risking fighting style.
More importantly, after this kind of fighting style, the opponent's injury would definitely be more serious than his.
'Could it be that this brat knows that he is no match for me, so he directly used this kind of fighting style to kill 300 of his opponent and 1000 of his own?' This thought flashed through Advisor Mo's mind.
Bang!
With such a muffled sound, his palm strike imprinted on Lin Long's chest. At the same time, a portion of Lin Long's sword qi also struck his chest.
Both of them flew out at the same time.
In the instant that the sword qi struck Advisor Mo's chest, the rune armor on his body came into effect, and it blocked a lot of Lin Long's sword qi.
Even so, it took him a while to recover from his previous injuries.
What he didn't expect was that before he could stand up, his opponent actually bounced up from the ground and attacked him again.
Why does this kid look like he's fine? Advisor Mo couldn't help but be shocked.
He knew how powerful that palm strike of his was. Even a Level 4 Martial Artist, even if he had a Runic Armor on his body, would be seriously injured by that palm strike of his.
Who would have thought that the other party would attack him again as if nothing had happened?
At this moment, how could Teacher Mo dare to underestimate the other party? He hurriedly took out his rune sword.
"Bang, bang, bang …"
In just a few breaths of time, the two had exchanged a few moves. The more they fought, the more apprehensive Advisor Mo became.
Although his realm was higher than his opponent's, he was unable to gain the upper hand due to his injuries, as well as the exquisiteness of his opponent's sword technique and ice attribute cultivation method.
What was even more frightening was that the opponent would occasionally use a method that would cause both sides to suffer. After suffering a loss once, how could Advisor Mo dare to fight with the opponent again?
Therefore, although his realm was higher than his opponent's, the more he fought, the more he fell into a disadvantageous position.
If this went on, he was afraid that he would die here! Being overwhelmed with shock, he didn't dare to continue fighting with the opponent.
After a few moves, he fiercely attacked with his sword. After forcing the opponent to take a few steps back, he quickly retreated. After retreating for a distance, he immediately activated the wings on his back and escaped.
"Kid, I'll come back after I've recovered!" He threw out such a ruthless sentence.
Lin Long seemed to have the upper hand, but he had no intention of chasing. Instead, he walked to a tree and picked up Guo Xiaoxiao. Then, he activated the aircraft on his back and flew in the opposite direction of the opponent.
"Junior Brother Lin, you're amazing. You actually defeated a Level 4 Martial Artist at the peak of Level 4."
"However, Junior Brother Lin, you were hit by the opponent's palm just now. Are you alright?"
In the air, Guo Xiaoxiao asked such a question. After resting for a period of time, she recovered quite a bit of her vitality.
However, her expression quickly became ugly. She realized that Lin Long's face was pale and his body was trembling uncontrollably.
"Junior Brother Lin, what's wrong? Are you injured?" Guo Xiaoxiao asked anxiously.
"I'm fine …" Lin Long replied.
However, at that moment, he didn't look like he was fine at all.
"Junior Brother, quickly go down," Guo Xiaoxiao hurriedly said.
She was afraid that if she couldn't save Lin Long in time, he would die in mid-air.
Lin Long didn't directly land. Instead, he flew for a distance before landing on the ground.
This was still a dense forest. After landing, Guo Xiaoxiao hurriedly said, "Junior Brother, quickly meditate and heal your injuries."
"No need. This is the … side effect of using the cultivation technique just now. Even meditating and healing my injuries won't help …" Lin Long said with difficulty.
"Side effect?" Guo Xiaoxiao was stunned.
However, after taking a closer look at Lin Long, she also saw some clues. Although Lin Long had some injuries on his body, it was obvious that there was another reason why he was in pain.
At that moment, Lin Long even began to twitch. He was in extreme pain, and his face was completely distorted from the pain.
If anyone who knew him passed by, they probably wouldn't be able to recognize the twitching person on the ground as Lin Long.
"Junior Brother, what should I do?" Guo Xiaoxiao asked anxiously.
"You … just watch …" After saying those words, Lin Long directly fainted.
At that moment, Guo Xiaoxiao was at a loss. She didn't know what to do and could only worry helplessly.
After a while, there was a sudden noise nearby. It seemed like someone was walking over.
Guo Xiaoxiao was alarmed. She hadn't fully recovered from her injuries. If the people from the Fourth Marquis' Mansion came over, she wouldn't be able to fight back at all.
Just as she was about to carry Lin Long and run for her life, seven or eight people suddenly appeared in front of her.
When she saw these people, Guo Xiaoxiao couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief. They weren't the people from the Fourth Marquis' Mansion. The young man in the lead seemed to have a friendly expression on his face.
"Miss, what happened to him?" The young man's gaze swept across Guo Xiaoxiao's face and then stopped on Lin Long's body.
Although Lin Long had fainted, his body was still twitching from time to time. He looked like he was in extreme pain, which naturally surprised them.
"He's my junior brother … He's slightly injured," Guo Xiaoxiao explained.
"What kind of injury does he have? Why does he look so strange?" The people at the side were puzzled.
"Miss, did your junior brother take any healing medicine?" The young man in the lead asked again.
"He did, but it didn't have much effect," Guo Xiaoxiao replied.
"Looking at your junior brother's condition, I suggest that you go to our village to rest," the young man said again.
"This … It's better not to trouble you." Going to someone else's place to rest was naturally a good thing. However, the people from the Fourth Marquis' Mansion were hot on their heels. If they went to the village, they would definitely be a big target. It would be troublesome if they were caught by them.
Therefore, Guo Xiaoxiao rejected the young man's kind intentions.
"Miss, looking at your junior brother's condition, I'm afraid that he won't be able to recover in a short period of time. There are many fierce beasts here. It would be troublesome if you were to be entangled by a powerful fierce beast. Furthermore, our village has a doctor who might be able to treat your junior brother," the young man said.
After hearing their words, Guo Xiaoxiao couldn't help but ponder. In the end, she nodded her head and said, "We'll follow you."
The reason why she agreed was because she felt that the doctor might be able to treat Lin Long.
Immediately, Guo Xiaoxiao carried Lin Long on her back and followed the people down the mountain.
"Miss, seeing that your body is a little weak, let us carry you," the young man said again.
"There's no need," Guo Xiaoxiao shook her head.
She wasn't really injured. It was just that she had been hung up for too long without any rest for the past few days. Therefore, her body was very weak.
Now that she had recovered a little, she naturally carried Lin Long on her back.
Seeing that Guo Xiaoxiao was so insistent, the young man didn't say anything else.
"Miss, my surname is Lu, and my name is Lu Dong. I'm from the nearby Lu Village, and so are the few of them," the young man introduced himself and then asked, "May I know where you guys are from?"
If they told the truth, it was very likely that they would leave clues for the people from the Fourth Marquis' Mansion. Therefore, Guo Xiaoxiao said, "We are from Qingtian Town. We had some matters to attend to in Yin Sky City, so we passed by here. Who would have thought that we would encounter a few powerful fierce beasts …"
"There are indeed rather powerful fierce beasts nearby," Lu Dong nodded his head.
"May I know how to address you, Miss?" Lu Dong then asked.
"My name is Liu Yi, and my junior brother is Guo Fan," Guo Xiaoxiao said with a faint smile.
The reason why she came up with a fake name was naturally to not leave any clues behind.
Subsequently, Guo Xiaoxiao gained some understanding of the Lu Village after the conversation. She found out that Lu Dong had an elder brother who was only second to the chief because he was a mid-stage Level 2 martial artist.
Soon, the group of people entered the Lu Village.
When they saw Lu Dong bringing unfamiliar faces into the village and one of them was a beautiful young lady, they naturally attracted the attention of the others.
"This is Miss Liu. Her junior brother is injured, so she came to the village to see Doctor Lu Ling," Lu Dong explained along the way.
Soon, they arrived at a wooden house.
"Miss Liu, Doctor Lu Ling is here … I was supposed to bring you to see the chief, but your junior brother's condition doesn't seem too good, so I came to see Doctor Lu Ling first."
Lu Dong then knocked on the door and asked, "Is Doctor Lu Ling here?"
"Xiaodong, come in." An old man's voice came from inside.
Lu Dong immediately opened the door and gestured for Guo Xiaoxiao to bring Linlong in while the others waited outside.
After entering the wooden house, Guo Xiaoxiao saw that it was filled with medicinal herbs. A tanned, skinny old man was squatting on the ground and fiddling with something.
There was only one old man in the wooden house. It was obvious that he was the Doctor Lu Ling that Lu Dong mentioned.
"Doctor Lu Ling, I met this lady and her junior brother on my way back from hunting. Her junior brother seems to be suffering from some strange injuries, so I brought him here to see if you can help them," Lu Dong said.
At this moment, the tanned, skinny old man finally raised his head and looked at Guo Xiaoxiao and Linlong.
Guo Xiaoxiao had already placed Linlong on the ground. Even now, the unconscious Linlong was still twitching uncontrollably.
"Hmm?" The tanned, skinny old man looked puzzled when he saw Linlong's condition.
Then, he walked straight toward Linlong.
Guo Xiaoxiao quickly said, "Doctor Lu Ling, sorry to trouble you."
The tanned, skinny old man ignored Guo Xiaoxiao. Instead, he placed his hand on Linlong's pulse.
After a moment, he couldn't help but ask doubtfully, "Although your junior brother is slightly injured, his injuries aren't serious enough for him to be in such a strange state."
"Then what should we do?" Guo Xiaoxiao couldn't help but ask.
Although Linlong said that he was fine, how could Guo Xiaoxiao be at ease?
"I'll concoct a medicine. You can let him try it later," the tanned, skinny old man said.
"Thank you, Doctor Lu Ling," Guo Xiaoxiao said.
The tanned, skinny old man put down what he was doing and took some medicinal herbs to concoct a medicine. After a while, he concocted some medicinal liquid.
"Young lady, let him drink this medicine," the tanned, skinny old man said as he pointed at the medicinal liquid in the wooden bowl.
"Okay." Guo Xiaoxiao nodded lightly and took the wooden bowl before she fed Linlong the medicine.
What delighted Guo Xiaoxiao was that Linlong actually stopped twitching after drinking the medicine.
'This medicine seems to be effective,' Guo Xiaoxiao thought.
"It seems like this medicine is quite effective. How about this, young lady, take him to rest first and bring the remaining medicinal liquid with you. If he's fine after a period of time, you can come back for more medicine," the tanned, skinny old man said.
After expressing his gratitude, Lu Dong led Guo Xiaoxiao and Linlong out of the wooden house. Then, Lu Dong led Guo Xiaoxiao and Linlong to another wooden house not far from this wooden house.
"This house is empty. You can rest here for the time being … I'll get someone to bring some bedding over later," Lu Dong said with a smile.
"Thank you, Big Brother Lu," Guo Xiaoxiao said.
"You're welcome, Young Lady Liu," Lu Dong said as he walked out and closed the door.
Guo Xiaoxiao, on the other hand, walked up to Linlong.
"Junior Brother, get well soon," Guo Xiaoxiao murmured.
What made her overjoyed was that Linlong suddenly opened his eyes at this moment.
Linlong couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief when he saw that Guo Xiaoxiao was still in front of him. Then, he became puzzled because they were clearly in the same house.
Linlong couldn't help but ask in confusion, "Senior Sister, we … Where are we?"
"We're in the Lu Village near Yin Tian City," Guo Xiaoxiao said.
After a slight pause, Guo Xiaoxiao asked, "Junior Brother, are you feeling better now?"
"Probably … Almost," Linlong replied.
The side effects of the level-three Qi-enhancing Pill and the Red Flowery Snake's crystal were really great, Linlong thought to himself.
The reason why he could fight with Advisor Mo to such an extent was because he took the Qi-enhancing Pill and the Red Flowery Snake's crystal, allowing his strength to instantly reach the realm of a level-four martial artist. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to compete with his opponent at all.
Even though he had the strength of a level-four martial artist at that time, he could only injure his opponent when he launched a sneak attack and fully activated Wu Lin's sword skills and Cold Moon Ice Technique. Otherwise, how could he have beaten his opponent away?
After all, a martial artist at the peak of the level-four stage was too powerful for him.
Although Linlong opened his eyes, his body still looked weak and powerless. It seemed that he wouldn't be able to recover his Primordial Qi in a short time.
"It seems that Doctor Lu Ling's medicine is really useful for Junior Brother," Guo Xiaoxiao said.
"Doctor Lu Ling?" Linlong asked doubtfully.
Guo Xiaoxiao immediately told him about how they bumped into Lu Dong and his group and how they came to the Lu Village. Then, they asked the dark-skinned old man to concoct the medicine.
"Oh, do you still have the medicine?" Linlong asked immediately.
If the medicine was really useful, he wouldn't have such a huge side effect when he took the level-three Qi-enhancing Pill and the Red Flowery Snake's crystal in the future.
