Although there was only one Iron Sword rank person left, there were still three of them. If Linlong was surrounded by them, he would have to pay a huge price even if he won.
Moreover, his chances of winning were not high. Hence, Linlong did not hesitate and immediately turned to flee.
Linlong was so close. How could Lu Bai and the other two let go of such an opportunity? All of them desperately followed behind Linlong.
However, their footwork was inferior to Linlong's, so how could they possibly catch up to him? In a short period of time, Linlong had left them in the dust.
Helpless, Lu Bai and the other two could only stop.
"That kid is too strong. We can't split up. We have to go together!" Lu Bai hurriedly said.
He did not want Linlong to defeat them one by one. If either Wang Ran or Xu Xin died, it would be very difficult for him to take down Linlong.
"Yes." Wang Ran and Xu Xin hurriedly nodded.
Even if Lu Bai had not said so, the two of them would not have dared to search alone.
Just like that, the three of them followed closely and searched for Linlong in this space. At this time, they could also see that this was the space where they had first encountered Linlong.
Hiding not far away, Linlong frowned slightly as he watched the three of them closely following him.
If the other party had spread out, he could have defeated them one by one. However, with them sticking together, his chances were not high.
Although hiding in the path that the three of them had to pass by could create an opportunity, it was very dangerous. Linlong naturally would not take such a risk if he had other methods.
It was better to return to the spatial crack and use it to kill them. Linlong made this decision.
After making this decision, he immediately revealed himself.
"He's over there, hurry up!" Lu Bai shouted as soon as he saw Linlong. Then, he took the lead and gave chase.
Xu Xin and Wang Ran followed closely behind him.
What made the three of them happy was that Linlong did not seem to be able to shake them off this time. They were still able to follow him closely.
"Brat, you're finished!" Wang Ran rejoiced at the situation.
However, his expression quickly changed. This was because Linlong had once again run in front of the spatial crack.
At this time, they realized that the spatial crack was still there.
This was naturally because they had been chasing after Linlong the moment they came out, so they had no idea what was happening behind them.
"Goodbye, everyone." Standing in front of the spatial crack, Linlong smiled at Lu Bai and the others before directly passing through the spatial crack.
Although the spatial rift was now extremely stable, Lu Bai and the others did not dare to rush in directly due to the previous situation.
They didn't even need to think to know that Linlong was definitely hiding on the other side of the spatial rift. Once they went out, they would definitely be ambushed by Linlong.
"This kid is really too hateful!" Xu Xin couldn't help but say angrily.
"Senior Brother Lu, what should we do?" Wang Ran looked at Lu Bai helplessly.
Lu Bai didn't say anything. He was deep in thought.
He naturally knew that if they went over, there would definitely be casualties.
But if they didn't go over, they would be trapped in this space. In other words, no matter what, they had to go over. It was only a matter of time.
Could it be that he wanted to waste time with him? Should we go there when he can't help but leave?
After thinking about it, Lu Bai felt that this wouldn't work. How would he know when the other party would leave?
Seeing that he was deep in thought, Xu Xin and Wang Ran didn't dare to say anything. After all, Lu Bai was the strongest here.
After a while, Lu Bai suddenly raised his head and looked at Xu Xin.
Seeing that Lu Bai was looking at her, Xu Xin inexplicably panicked. She even asked, "Senior Brother Lu, what's the matter?"
"Xu Xin, you go over first and lure that kid away. We'll kill our way out and help you," Lu Bai ordered.
"That's not good. I'm so weak. I definitely won't be his match." Xu Xin hurriedly said.
"You mean you want me to go out first?" Lu Bai said coldly.
"Of course not." Xu Xin quickly waved his hand and said, "I think we can wait."
"Wait? I don't have that much patience." Lu Bai frowned.
"Wait … wait for two hours," Xu Xin hurriedly said.
He felt that if he said it for a longer time, the other party would definitely not agree. Hence, he said this.
After a slight pause, Lu Bai finally said, "Alright, two hours it is."
He didn't want to force Xu Xin too much. After all, they were on the same side. Moreover, Linlong would probably leave after two hours.
Seeing that Lu Bai agreed, Xu Xin couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief.
Immediately, the three of them sat on the ground and waited.
After a long wait, two hours finally passed.
During this period of time, there were several times when Lu Bai wanted to ask Xu Xin to go over directly. However, he resisted the urge in the end.
At this time, he couldn't bear it anymore. He said, "Time's up. Xu Xin, you go over."
"Okay," Xu Xin said helplessly.
After taking a few deep breaths, Xu Xin chanted 'Lin Li, you're not on the opposite side' a few times in his heart before dashing over.
After a while, he realized that he had appeared on the opposite side. To his relief, it seemed that no one had sneaked up on him.
At the same time, he hurriedly looked around, but he didn't expect to see a sword aura coming towards him the moment he turned his head.
In a hurry, he waved the rune bronze sword in his hand to block it.
What made him happy was that he managed to block it.
However, the smile on his face immediately froze because his rune bronze sword was sent flying. In the next moment, the sword aura directly pierced his chest.
Am I dead? With such doubts in his mind, he fell to the ground.
At this time, Lu Bai and Wang Ran also dashed out.
The moment they dashed out, they saw Xu Xin lying on the ground. This situation naturally made their faces extremely ugly.
"Kill!"
With a loud roar, Lu Bai swung his sword towards Linlong again. At the same time, Wang Ran also attacked with his sword.
Although the other party was much weaker now, Linlong still didn't plan to fight them head-on.
This was because such a fight would be more difficult, and he might even have to pay a price.
Moreover, there were obviously people on the right not far away. It was obviously Yan Dong and the other two. If they heard the sound of the fight and came over, it would be even more dangerous.
Hence, Linlong directly turned around and fled.
At this time, Lu Bai didn't have any other thoughts, so he directly chased after Linlong. Naturally, Wang Ran followed closely behind him.
This time, Linlong didn't run at full speed. Instead, he slightly slowed down until Lu Bai and Wang Ran had chased him for a long distance before he sped up.
With this speed, he quickly shook off the two of them.
The reason why he did this was because he wanted to return to the place where Xu Xin fell.
He had held back just now, and only knocked Xu Xin out. If he returned in time, Xu Xin could still be saved.
It wasn't that he didn't want to kill Xu Xin, but because he knew that he could make a fuss about Xu Xin.
Lu Bai and Wang Ran didn't expect Linlong to show mercy just now. They thought that Xu Xin was already dead, so they had no thoughts of returning at all. They didn't know that Linlong actually ran back to the original place.
Of course, the reason why they didn't think of returning was also because they saw Ah Sheng.
Ah Sheng also saw them. Seeing that there was no one else beside them, and that they looked extremely tired, Ah Sheng couldn't help but ask, "Where are the others? Did you guys encounter a powerful beast? "
"We didn't encounter a powerful beast, but that kid Lin Li again!" Wang Ran said fiercely.
"What? Lin Li isn't dead? "Ah Sheng couldn't help but be stunned.
"Not dead, and he's still alive and kicking. He even used a vicious scheme to kill Xie Wen, Xie Gang, and Xu Xin!" Wang Ran said.
"It can't be, Xie Wen, Xu Xin, and the others are all dead?" Ah Sheng was stunned again.
"Yes, they were killed by that kid," Lu Bai said.
"How did that kid do it? What vicious scheme did he use? "Ah Sheng couldn't help but ask.
"That kid is very sinister. He hid at the side and launched a sneak attack. Furthermore, he used a spatial rift to kill the three of them." Wang Ran gritted his teeth.
"That kid is too sinister, so the rest of us must stick together. Otherwise, we will be killed by him if we're not careful," Lu Bai said, and then asked, "Where are Yan Dong and the others?"
"They just separated from me for a while. They're in that direction." As he spoke, Ah Sheng pointed to his right.
Looking in the direction that Ah Sheng was pointing, Wang Ran and Lu Bai's faces twitched. This was because from the direction that Ah Sheng was pointing, Yan Dong and the others were obviously on the left that they had chased from. If Yan Dong and the others had come over, they would probably have caught up to Linlong.
"We probably chased that kid from that direction just now." Lu Bai's face darkened.
"That kid Lin Li is really lucky," Ah Sheng couldn't help but say.
"The most important thing now is to find them immediately. Don't let Lin Li kill them one by one." Lu Bai hurriedly said.
"Then let's go immediately." Ah Sheng immediately nodded.
Immediately, the three of them sprinted in the direction where Yan Dong and the others were.
When they went to find Yan Dong and the others, Linlong had already arrived at the place where Xu Xin had fallen. After confirming that Xu Xin could still be saved, Linlong immediately took out a healing pill for Xu Xin to consume.
After a while, Xu Xin slowly regained consciousness.
"I'm still alive?" Looking at her surroundings, Xu Xin said with a face of disbelief.
"That's right, you're still alive." At this moment, a voice came from the side.
Hearing this voice, Xu Xin was even more shocked. This was because she could tell that it was Linlong's voice. Turning around, who else could it be other than Linlong standing beside her?
What's going on? Could it be that Lin Li killed Lu Bai and the others? But if that's the case, why didn't he kill me?
Many questions flashed through Xu Xin's mind.
She immediately asked, "Why … didn't you kill me?"
"I only want to ask you, why did you join forces with Lu Bai and Wang Ran to slander me?" Linlong said coldly.
"I … I didn't." Hearing Linlong's question, Xu Xin subconsciously replied.
"Tsk tsk, then you don't want to live anymore?" Linlong smiled strangely.
Hearing Linlong's words, Xu Xin hurriedly asked, "If I tell the truth, you won't kill me?"
"Of course, I won't kill you." Linlong said calmly.
"Absolutely?" Xu Xin couldn't help but ask.
"I swear to the heavens." Linlong said. Then, he changed the topic, "But if you don't tell the truth, don't blame me for being merciless!"
"Alright … I'll tell you." Xu Xin hurriedly said.
Immediately, she told him why she joined forces with Lu Bai and the others to slander Linlong.
Indeed, it was no different from what he had guessed! Linlong thought to himself.
After listening to Xu Xin's explanation, he naturally understood the cause and effect.
"Brother Lin, I was possessed at that time, so I hope you won't blame me." After speaking, Xu Xin said to Linlong.
Naturally, he hoped to leave a better impression on Linlong.
Knowing what Xu Xin was thinking, Linlong immediately said, "Don't worry, I'm a man of my word. I definitely won't kill you."
Seeing that Linlong repeated his words again and again, as if he really wouldn't kill him, Xu Xin heaved a sigh of relief.
"What should we do next?" Xu Xin asked.
Linlong didn't speak. Instead, he suddenly pulled out the runic iron sword from his waist and slashed at a tree beside him.
"Bang!"
With such a sound, the tree fell down in response to the sound.
"What are you doing?" Xu Xin couldn't help but be shocked.
"Naturally, I'm calling the others over." Linlong smiled indifferently.
"Aren't you afraid …" At this point, Xu Xin immediately stopped because he could already see what Linlong was going to do.
Although he asked, "Wang Ran, Lu Bai, and the others aren't dead?"
"Not dead." Linlong replied.
At the same time, Wang Ran, Lu Bai, Yan Dong, and the others who had already met up heard the commotion and immediately turned their heads to look over.
They were currently not far from Linlong and Ah Sheng.
"Could it be that Lin Li encountered some fierce beast and fought with it?" Wang Ran couldn't help but ask.
"Very likely!" Ah Sheng said.
"Then let's kill our way over immediately. Who knows, we might be the fisherman who benefits from the fight!" Lu Bai said.
"Alright!" Yan Dong immediately agreed with this suggestion.
The group immediately rushed in the direction of the commotion.
Soon, they arrived beside Linlong and Ah Sheng. Once they arrived, all of them revealed a shocked expression because they realized that Xu Xin was actually still alive.
Needless to say, Lu Bai and Wang Ran knew that Linlong didn't kill Xu Xin. Not only did he not kill him, but he also returned to save him.
What is this kid doing? The two immediately felt that something was wrong.
Afraid that something might happen, Lu Bai immediately shouted, "Let's kill our way over and get rid of him immediately!"
However, just as he was about to rush over, he was pulled back by Yan Dong.
"Brother Yan, what are you doing?" Lu Bai frowned.
"Brother Lu, don't you see that Lin Li's sword is on Xu Xin's neck?" Yan Dong frowned.
Under such circumstances, Yan Dong naturally felt that something was wrong when Lu Bai rushed over in such a hurry. Moreover, if they really rushed over, Xu Xin's life would definitely be in danger. Hence, he pulled Lu Bai back in time.
Xu Xin was his person. How could he give up the chance to save her so easily?
Knowing that they had lost the chance, Lu Bai could only stop helplessly.
At this moment, Yan Dong stared at Linlong and said, "Lin Li, let Xu Xin go!"
