"What's so special about this place?" In a dry and cool valley, Lan Yu asked his subordinate who had just returned from the foot of the mountain.
"Your Excellency, I've inquired about it. The villagers said that there are savages and giant snakes here. However, these ignorant people don't even know the Judicial Department. Obviously, they haven't seen much of the world. When they heard some strange movements, they made groundless accusations and exaggerated. They may not be reliable. "
The one who spoke was another commander under Lan Yu. His name was Wang Huan. He was tall and strong, and he practiced body refining techniques. Yan Li had fought with him before, and he was no match for him in close combat.
"Let's say," Wang Huan continued, "Even if there are savages and giant snakes, we don't have to be afraid of them with our strength!"
"Do you think I'm too cautious?" Lan Yu said calmly.
"It's not like you, Your Excellency." Wang Huan was a straightforward person.
"A few years ago, I haven't mentioned it to you, but I worked in Rong City. I chased after an important figure of a foreign tribe. I chased him from the Hundred Thousand Mountains to Bu Zhou, and from Bu Zhou to here …"
He paused, and there was still some fear in his eyes. "I remember that person couldn't move at all. I thought I could catch him easily, but something unforgettable happened."
"What was it?" Wang Huan asked in surprise.
"It's hard to say …" Lan Yu shook his head.
Li Jiming frowned and said, "Your Excellency, it's not the right time to keep us guessing. Tang Sanghua has already escaped into the Savage Valley. If we delay any longer, we won't be able to catch her. "
"It's hard to say …" Lan Yu still shook his head.
"How can it be hard to say? Just tell us what happened at that time."
Lan Yu hesitated for a long time, and said uncertainly, "I think I saw a dragon."
When everyone heard this, they instantly quieted down, and then they lowered their heads and tightly pursed their lips.
"How could something from a novel come to the real world?" Li Jiming was amused. He thought it was fortunate that this person was only a commander. If he was such a commander, there would be no need for the Judicial Department to exist.
Lan Yu flew into a rage out of humiliation, "I know you won't believe me! Forget it, pretend I didn't say anything. "
"It's not that we don't believe you," Li Jiming said, "What you said is really shocking."
Bluejade stood up and looked at Xu Muyun coldly. "You were the one who lost him. Haven't you found any clues?"
Xu Muyun bowed and said, "Tang Sanhua is very vigilant. After the smell of blood stopped, she didn't leave any traces. But don't worry, I will be able to lock onto her approximate location before dawn."
Bluejade took out a map and pointed at Savage Valley. "I've roughly observed the terrain of Savage Valley. There are two paths that can be taken to pass through this place. There are many ancient trees on the mountain. Even I have to spend some effort to get through. "Lan Yu took out a map and pointed at the Savage Valley," I have roughly observed the terrain of the Savage Valley. But just in case, we will split into three groups. One is a river, and the other is a high mountain. There are many ancient trees on the mountain. Even I will have to spend some effort to get through. "
He paused and turned to Li Jiming, "Manager Li, please guard the road."
"Happy to help." Li Jiming nodded slightly.
Then, he turned to Xu Muyun, "Muyun, guard the mountain road. We can't make any mistakes this time!"
"Yes, sir!"
…
Tang Sanghua walked out of the forest and saw a river. It was a river, but it was very shallow. It was more like a small stream, but it was very wide. The trees around it were lush and green, so it was impossible for there to be a lack of rain. It was as if there was a fork in the road that led the water away.
On the other side of the river was a primitive forest. There were few people here, so there was no way to get through. Going down the river was the right choice.
That was what Tang Sanhua was thinking at first, but the moment she was about to take a step forward, she suddenly had an intuition: there was a fatal danger ahead.
She looked in the direction she came from, but she knew that if Lan Yu was lying in ambush ahead, there would be a tiger blocking the way from the direction she came from. It might even be Li Jiming.
Finally, she looked at the primitive forest. She gritted her teeth and rushed in.
Climbing the mountain was very exhausting, especially since there were ancient trees and vines on the road. Some of the ridges were especially difficult to climb, and there were withered vines blocking the way. She could only cut them off bit by bit before she could pass. It was a severe test for her stamina.
When she was halfway up the mountain, she started to sweat. A normal third-grade martial artist could run from Yongling East City to West City without panting. It was obvious that the terrain had caused a lot of trouble for Tang Sanghua.
For Xu Muyun, who had been waiting patiently for the enemy to come to him, this was very advantageous.
But Xu Muyun never thought that the prey would really come to him. When he heard the scout's report, he felt that it was ridiculous.
"Well, since you've fallen into my hands again, I won't let you run away again."
He frowned slightly and then calmed down. "Pass my order. Don't expose your position before the prey enters the encirclement."
Tang Sanghua didn't know that she was approaching danger step by step.
When she reached a place slightly close to the top of the mountain, she was alarmed. Maybe because of the heavy rain, the soil had loosened and formed an open space with a radius of about a thousand feet.
After a few steps, she raised her eyebrows. "Come out, why are you still hiding!"
Many people suddenly came out from the surrounding ancient forest. A rough count showed that there were nearly a hundred of them. They surrounded Tang Sanghua tightly. In other words, there were at least two flag battalions here.
"We didn't expect that you would choose this path." Xu Muyun came out from the crowd and looked at her indifferently. "You're not going to escape. Are you going to fight like a cornered beast?"
"Are you afraid?" Tang Sanghua sneered. "Old man, I said that if I don't kill you, I'm not a Tang. Since you're guarding this path, don't blame me for not respecting the old and loving the young when you go to hell!"
There was no reason for a second-grade martial artist to be afraid of a third-grade one.
"Killing me is indeed your last chance." Xu Muyun had already seen through her intentions. "However, young people can be forgiven for making mistakes. I can give you a chance."
"Don't say it like it's charity." Tang Sanghua sneered. "In fact, you want to prove that your old bones can still move, but you may be wrong. The difference between a second-grade and a third-grade martial artist isn't that big."
When a third-grade martial artist developed his lower dantian, the amount of Primordial Qi would skyrocket, more than ten times that of a fourth-grade martial artist.
For a second-grade martial artist, the Primordial Qi in the middle and lower dantian would flow endlessly, forming a Primordial Qi tide that cycled back and forth. If a third-grade martial artist needed three breaths to recover after using all his strength, a second-grade martial artist only needed one breath. This was the difference between them.
If the fight was prolonged, Tang Sanghua would definitely lose. Deciding the outcome with one move was her only chance.
Therefore, when she found Xu Muyun, there was only this old man left in her eyes. All her Qi was mobilized, all the scattered energy was concentrated, and turned into a sharp arrow that stimulated Xu Muyun's fighting spirit.
"Arrogant little girl, it seems that this old man really has to teach you a lesson!" Xu Muyun's old face darkened when he was exposed. At the same time, he held the hilt of his sword, and his Primordial Qi crawled out in a not very turbulent but very heavy manner, and spread all over the air. Wherever the Primordial Qi spread, the air was as heavy as his face.
The nature of Tang Sanghua's Primordial Qi was very intense and majestic. This was the first time she used her full strength since she sneaked into Yong Ling. Like a burning flame, her body was covered with a layer of white light, and she was as dazzling as a goddess.
"Sky Silkworm, Sang Hua Mirror Shadow!"
She shot out like a ray of light, and the Sky Silkworm swept towards Xu Muyun's throat without any fancy moves.
Xu Muyun stood still, his face dark, and he did not move.
But there seemed to be countless hands in the air to stop Tang Sanghua, not letting her move forward.
Finally, she moved forward, and the blade hit the scabbard that Xu Muyun lifted up. Because of the obstruction, the power was not very strong.
At the same time that Xu Muyun raised his sword, he unsheathed it beyond common sense, swung it, and quickly returned it to the scabbard.
Puff!
Tang Sanghua's body was chopped like a bubble.
Then, from the upper left corner, another Tang Sanghua appeared, and the target was still Xu Muyun's neck.
Xu Muyun then raised his sword to block, unsheathed it beyond common sense, and quickly returned it to the scabbard.
Tang Sanghua's body was chopped like a bubble again.
For a moment, there were countless phantoms, but no matter from which angle the attack was launched, Xu Muyun could always swing his sword at the right time.
The collision of moves was very fierce, and the onlookers could only see the two of them constantly attacking, and in a flash, they had exchanged no less than ten moves.
The older, the wiser. Xu Muyun suddenly unsheathed his sword, but did not return it to the scabbard. Instead, he took about four steps, raised his sword, and stabbed. Like his Primordial Qi, it was not fast, but very heavy.
Ding!
This time, it hit the real thing.
In the sound of metal and stone colliding, Tang Sanghua groaned, and slowly appeared in the air. The Celestial Silkworm blocked in front of his chest, and the tip of the sword pierced the edge of the Celestial Silkworm. It was only a millimeter away from piercing into the flesh.
But this millimeter was the distance between life and death.
Tang Sanghua smiled coldly, and suddenly grabbed Xu Muyun's sword, not caring that his soft palm was cut and bleeding. The Celestial Silkworm broke free from the sword's grip, and fiercely stabbed toward Xu Muyun's heart.
"You are still too young!" Xu Muyun smiled faintly, and casually used his palm to block, but was immediately pierced by the scimitar. Blood splashed, but the strength of the scimitar was not enough, and the stab was very shallow.
Tang Sanghua still smiled coldly, and the hand that clamped the sword suddenly ignited with a pale golden flame.
Xu Muyun did not recognize the fire, but when he saw it, his heart suddenly tightened, as if the God of Death had come to the top of his head, and was grinning hideously to cut off his head.
Bang!
Making a prompt decision, the heavy Primordial Qi in the air suddenly exploded, and collided with Tang Sanghua, causing a strong shock.
The aftermath destroyed the pale golden flame that was about to burst, and the sword and scimitar were also broken at the same time. The two of them were sent flying by the scattered force, and like broken straws, they fell to the ground and could not move.
