Of course, Ye Lingxiao wouldn't forget what happened not long ago.
At that time, he lied and protected Jiang Wang from Du Ruhui. After that, he clearly told Jiang Wang that he didn't want Jiang Wang to cause any trouble in the future and implicate Lingxiao Pavilion.
At that time, Jiang Wang promised that such a thing would never happen again.
He said that he wasn't angry or resentful. He was sincerely understanding and making a solemn promise.
This time, he saw Jiang Wang again.
His body was obviously full of blood and Qi after a great battle.
Although his cultivation had reached a new level, the exhaustion after a life-and-death battle couldn't escape the eyes of a Perfected Master.
His Qi, his spirit, his body … all described his exhaustion and nervousness.
It was obvious that he was running away from being hunted.
During the time he was missing, he was probably walking on the edge of life and death.
However, he indeed went around Lingxiao Pavilion and fulfilled his promise.
He wasn't acting because before Ye Lingxiao appeared, he had already chosen to go around.
This wasn't a simple promise, and it wasn't a decision that could be made easily.
Ye Lingxiao was in front of him and had shown kindness. As long as he was thick-skinned enough to stay, he would have a chance to be protected. However, he didn't do that.
There were many proud people, but how many people could maintain their self-esteem in the face of death?
Ye Lingxiao's feelings were very complicated, and he couldn't describe them clearly. However, at least one thing was that he hadn't met such a young man in a long time.
Just like when he was young.
He looked in the direction that Jiang Wang escaped. Suddenly, he sensed something and turned around.
He tapped his toes lightly, and the cloud patterns dissipated.
Du Ruhui, whose hair was as black as ink, appeared in front of him.
"Minister Du," Ye Lingxiao spoke first, "why aren't you staying in Zhuang Country? Why are you running around all day?"
Du Ruhui frowned. He wasn't distracted by Ye Lingxiao's words and went straight to the point. "Why did Pavilion Master Ye stop me?"
He was hurrying on with Imminent Skyline. Because he was afraid of missing it, he had to stop to collect human Qi. Therefore, he had to leap forward step by step.
Just now, Ye Lingxiao took the initiative to attack and involved his Qi.
This alone wasn't enough to stop Imminent Skyline. However, he couldn't ignore Ye Lingxiao's attitude.
"Stop you?" Ye Lingxiao also expressed his dissatisfaction. "As the Prime Minister of Zhuang Country, you can come and go between Zhuang Country and Yun Country too casually. I'm afraid it's not appropriate, right?"
This was complete nonsense.
The Yun Nation was originally a neutral nation, and the Yun Nation's Chamber of Commerce welcomed guests from all over the world. How could there be a reason to not allow people to casually approach?
But Du Ruhui didn't say anything, probably because he knew that reasoning was useless. He only looked at Ye Lingxiao and suddenly asked, "What about the Sky Tower youth I saw last time? Pavilion Master Ye, please call him out. "
As soon as Ye Lingxiao stopped him, he quickly connected the young man he saw in the Qichang Mountain Range with Dong Ah's murderer.
His intuition was terrifyingly sharp.
The more he thought about it, the more it made sense.
The murderer who killed Dong A should be a survivor of the Maplewood City region, and the Qichang Mountain Range happened to be near the Maplewood City region.
At that time, the young man who had stopped in the sky above the Qichang Mountain Range was actually paying his respects to Maplewood City.
If that was the case, then what role did Ye Lingxiao play in it?
Dong A's death, Song Hengjiang's death …
"He's just a junior. What's there to see?" Ye Lingxiao laughed. "Since you're not here to catch up with me, then let's part ways here."
As soon as Du Ruhui spoke, he realized that he was in huge trouble. The Yun Nation had always maintained neutrality, and he really didn't need to be involved in any whirlpool.
Previously, he had stopped Du Ruhui on a whim, and he had done it casually.
But since Du Ruhui was the one who hunted down Jiang Wang and was so persistent in doing so. Then the contradiction between the two sides had reached an irreconcilable point.
With his strength and status, of course, he could protect Jiang Wang. But was it necessary?
Was it necessary to make enemies with the Zhuang Nation for Jiang Wang?
This was not in the interest of the Sky Tower.
Therefore, he wanted to get away with it as quickly as possible.
"Pavilion Master Ye." Du Ruhui reached out to stop him. "Since you've said so, then let's take this opportunity to catch up."
Ye Lingxiao glanced behind Du Ruhui and said absent-mindedly, "Let's catch up."
Du Ruhui smiled. "Aren't you going to invite me to the Sky Tower?"
Just now, Zhuang Gaoxian had arrived and communicated with Du Ruhui remotely. Then, he left.
Du Ruhui stayed to understand the Sky Tower's attitude, and Zhuang Gaoxian took over the mission of hunting down Jiang Wang.
The two Perfected Masters, Zhuang Gaoxian and Ye Lingxiao, naturally noticed each other, but they deliberately kept a distance and didn't meet.
If they didn't talk well, it would immediately cause a huge conflict between the Zhuang Nation and the Yun Nation. So, it was necessary to communicate with Du Ruhui. Both sides had room for a buffer.
Jiang Wang is gone …
Ye Lingxiao thought to himself.
He didn't know what he did to make Zhuang Gaoxian personally hunt him down. An Internal Residence with Remarkable Powers had no chance of survival when faced with the pursuit of a Perfected Master.
He felt a little regretful, but that was it.
In any case, he couldn't change the Yun Nation's neutral policy and confront the Zhuang Nation directly for Jiang Wang.
Little An 'an would be very sad.
Or Qingyu would be sad too.
But who could escape from the separation of life and death?
If he was just a father, a father who didn't want his daughter to be sad … If he was just a cultivator who followed his heart and pursued love and hate, he might protect that young man.
But he was the Sky Tower Pavilion Master. He needed to consider the Sky Tower and the entire Yun Nation.
He enjoyed the honor of the nation and bore the responsibility of the nation.
So, he had no choice.
That young man was very much like him when he was young.
But he was no longer young.
"This way, please!" he said to Du Ruhui.
…
…
Jiang Wang flew all the way without stopping for even a moment.
The A-grade low-grade Dao technique, Flame Meteor, couldn't drive his powerful body with Two Residences. Its effect was limited.
Escaping from the Zhuang Nation didn't make him feel relaxed.
He knew very well what killing Dong A meant. Moreover, in the previous round of pursuit, Du Ruhui had already displayed an extremely resolute killing intent.
That time, he was able to escape because of Zhuang Chengqian's guidance.
Now, he only had himself. He could only rely on himself.
At least, he had to escape to Pegasus Plateau to be free of danger. Before that, he didn't have the right to relax.
Pegasus Plateau was a plateau in the middle of the Long River. It was close to the Wei and Wo Nations. It was located in the north of the Long River. It was like a giant overlooking the Long River.
Legend had it that it was once a place where pegasus galloped.
Now, it was Jiang Wang's initial target location. He would be safe if he escaped there. No matter how much Du Ruhui hated him, he wouldn't put aside state affairs and run all the way to Pegasus Plateau!
At this time, Jiang Wang didn't know whether or not someone was chasing him.
With his current strength, he didn't have the right to confirm this matter. He could only use his life to confirm it.
He didn't plan to take the risk. He planned for the worst and ran first.
He escaped from the Water Residence, escaped from the Zhuang border, and went around the Yun Nation.
He hurriedly flew past Ye Lingxiao without any intention of asking for help.
He flew alone in the sky, fighting for himself.
He didn't know that Du Ruhui had indeed chased him but was stopped.
He also didn't know that the person chasing after him … was the current Dao Master, Zhuang Gaoxian!
