"Hmph, Yu Xiao, it looks like I made the biggest mistake by not killing you back then."
"You want me to cripple my own cultivation. That's a good idea. However, do you think I'll believe you?"
"Even if I cripple my own cultivation and become a cripple, I believe that you will still kill me and my friends without any hesitation. How can someone like you, who can even betray his own body, be trusted?"
"Don't think that you can do whatever you want just because you have Zhou Wan's support. If you don't let my friends and family go, I can guarantee that you'll end up in a miserable state."
Luo Ping was not intimidated by Yu Xiao's words and continued to speak in an unyielding tone.
Seeing that Luo Ping had no intention of cooperating, Yu Xiao's expression instantly turned gloomy. If it wasn't for the fact that he wasn't strong enough, he would have already attacked and cut Luo Ping into pieces.
"Haha, City Lord Luo is indeed courageous. No wonder you were able to resolve the crisis of Hundred River City so easily. However, this isn't your Hundred River City. Now that you're here, it's no longer up to you."
"Since you've taken the initiative to come knocking on my door today, other than the enmity between you and Xiao 'er, it's time to settle the grudges between us."
Zhou Wan, the Valley Master of Hehuan Valley, said.
Luo Ping wasn't surprised at all when he heard this. After all, he had eradicated the hidden forces of Hehuan Valley in Nangong City. Not long ago, he had also killed a disciple of Hehuan Valley and seriously injured Zhou Ji.
Putting all these things together was enough for Zhou Wan to seek revenge. However, when Luo Ping heard Zhou Wan's next words, he was shocked.
"You killed my only and most beloved brother. This blood debt must be repaid with your life."
"However, this Valley Master won't let you die so easily. I will choose a hundred outstanding disciples from my sect and let them treat you well so that you can slowly die in pain."
"Of course, you have a Saint Artifact in your hand. This Valley Master isn't your opponent right now. However, I don't believe that you can ignore their lives."
"Today, I will make a bet with you. Let's see if you value friendship and righteousness more than your own life."
The Valley Master of the Acacia Valley, Zhou Wan, said furiously.
The reason why he wanted to take revenge on Luo Ping was not because Luo Ping had killed the disciples of Hehuan Valley, but because Luo Ping had killed his younger brother Zhou Ji.
"What? Zhou Ji is dead? "
"When Zhou Ji escaped, he was not seriously injured. How could he die?"
"It seems that something else must have happened after Zhou Ji escaped. However, even if we explain it to Zhou Wan, he won't listen."
"There is no need to explain the current situation. Today's battle is inevitable. Since Zhou Wan believes that I killed Zhou Ji, then let him take this hatred with him to accompany his younger brother."
Luo Ping was a little surprised. After all, Zhou Ji was not seriously injured when he escaped. However, as the Vice Valley Master of the Acacia Valley, Zhou Ji had done too many bad things. He might have been killed by the experts of other forces.
Now, since Zhou Wan wanted revenge, Luo Ping did not mind killing Zhou Wan and letting him accompany his younger brother.
"So your younger brother is dead. However, it's good that such a brother is dead. He's neither a man nor a woman. Just looking at him makes one's heart ache."
"Ah, sorry, I forgot. Valley Master Zhou is also such a person. Of course, he would not look down on his younger brother. However, looking at you now, you don't seem to be sad at all."
"If that trash Yu Xiao were to throw himself into your arms, I believe that you would still have a good time."
Luo Ping said without any trace of politeness.
"Shut up!"
"Based on what you just said, it's not just 100 disciples who are going to entertain you, but 200 disciples."
"Now, I'll ask you one last time. Are you willing to cripple your own cultivation?"
Zhou Wan was clearly infuriated by Luo Ping's words and questioned him coldly.
"Okay, I'll answer you now …"
"I'm not willing!"
Luo Ping paused for a moment before quickly replying.
When Zhou Wan and the others heard this, they were about to get angry. However, at this moment, an extremely terrifying power suddenly appeared above their heads and directly imprisoned their strength. Even if they reacted quickly and tried their best to increase their cultivation to resist, it was useless. They could only helplessly feel the terrifying power approaching.
Above Zhou Wan and the others, a Golden Tripod appeared out of thin air. The mouth of the tripod was facing downwards. The tripod released an earth-shattering power that quickly approached the position below.
In the blink of an eye, the Golden Tripod arrived beside Zhou Wan and the others. Then, it accurately covered Lan Yu and the others. Even the Joyous Union Valley disciples who were escorting Lan Yu and the others were directly sucked in.
Originally, Zhou Wan and Yu Xiao were also within the range of the Golden Tripod. However, when the Golden Tripod was about to land on them, an extremely powerful light was released from their bodies at the same time. Under the pressure of the Golden Tripod's power, a small gap was created and they shot out in two different directions.
In the blink of an eye, the two of them had escaped from Luo Ping and Wu Feiying's line of sight. However, Zhou Wan's incomparably furious voice came from the distance.
"Yu Xiao, you were actually the one who killed my younger brother and stole his saint artifact. I will definitely tear you to pieces in the future."
Zhou Wan's voice was filled with intense anger and killing intent. He clearly didn't expect Yu Xiao to be the one who killed his younger brother.
"After them!"
Luo Ping didn't hesitate to order Wu Feiying. Then, the two of them flew into the air and chased in a certain direction. Soon, they had teleported out of the Joyous Union Valley's range and were rapidly approaching the easternmost region, the Hundred Wood Continent.
The Hundred Wood Continent was extremely far away from the Joyous Union Valley. Even though Wu Feiying and Luo Ping had repeatedly used teleportation techniques, they still hadn't reached the Hundred Wood Continent's range after teleporting nearly ten times.
After chasing for such a long distance, Luo Ping and Yu Xiao still hadn't caught up to the person in front of them. This greatly surprised the two of them.
"Yu Xiao is currently only a level four golden immortal. Even if he killed Zhou Ji, obtained his Blissful Portrait, and used its power, he still wouldn't be able to escape so quickly."
"We've already teleported nearly ten times, but the distance between us and Yu Xiao doesn't seem to have shortened in the slightest. What kind of method did he use to be faster than a level nine peerless immortal's teleportation technique?"
Luo Ping asked Wu Feiying in bewilderment.
"I'm not sure either. However, there are countless paths of cultivation. There are bound to be many unexpected and powerful methods that we haven't encountered before."
"Let's not talk about what method Yu Xiao used for now. Just the fact that he was able to endure in the Joyous Union Valley for so long and was able to silently kill Zhou Ji is enough to prove that he isn't a simple person."
"If we don't kill him today, even if he won't be much of a threat to you in the future, it's hard to guarantee that he won't target your family and friends. It's impossible to guard against him."
After Wu Feiying analyzed the situation, she requested Luo Ping to kill Yu Xiao no matter what.
"I understand. No matter what, I definitely won't let him go this time. Otherwise, I wouldn't have chosen to chase after him."
Luo Ping replied resolutely.
After all, he didn't choose to chase after Zhou Wan. Instead, he chased after Yu Xiao in order to kill him.
Although he didn't know what method Yu Xiao had used to escape so quickly, he still had to capture him and kill him even if he was in the Hundred Wood Continent.
Under Wu Feiying's lead, the two of them teleported more than ten times and finally arrived at the edge of the Hundred Wood Continent. They could clearly see the situation in the Hundred Wood Continent.
The Hundred Wood Continent was incomparably vast. Luo Ping had heard about the dangers of this place before. However, he had no choice but to enter at this moment.
"Yu Xiao really did hide in the Hundred Wood Continent. It seems that it won't be easy to find him."
Luo Ping and Wu Feiying stood outside the Hundred Wood Continent. Luo Ping said as he sized up the scene in front of him.
"Didn't they say that the Hundred Wood Continent has countless trees and tree demons everywhere?"
"With Yu Xiao's cultivation and strength, how far do you think he can go after entering the Hundred Wood Continent? We'll definitely find him. "
Wu Feiying said.
"That's right. It's said that many of the tree demons in the Hundred Wood Continent are powerful races from the Prosperous Immortal Era and even the Ancient Immortal Era."
"These tree demons aren't like the races in the Desolate Wildlands that declined after the War of the Immortals. They're all powerful races with many branches and powerful strength."
"It's said that there's no lack of Immortal Monarch Realm experts among these tree demons. However, because these tree demons never take the initiative to come into contact with the various forces of the Immortal Region, no one has truly seen them. It's hard to tell if the rumors are true or false."
"Even so, with Yu Xiao's cultivation and strength, he can only move around the Hundred Wood Continent's periphery at most. If he wants to go deeper, he'll definitely lose his life. He's not that stupid. Therefore, we should hurry and chase after him."
Luo Ping nodded.
Thus, Luo Ping and Wu Feiying flew into the Hundred Wood Continent without hesitation and began to chase after Yu Xiao by following his aura.
The area of the Hundred Wood Continent was boundless, and there were many different types of Treants. However, they were arranged in an orderly manner. The outermost part of the Hundred Wood Continent was an extremely tall Treant called the "Cloud Treant".
As the name implied, the Cloud Ascension Tree was a tree that could be used to reach the clouds. Although this wasn't the case in reality, it was enough to show how tall the tree was.
When Luo Ping and Wu Feiying entered the forest of Cloud Ascension Trees, they were as small as two ants. Fortunately, the gaps between the trees were relatively large and their vision wasn't completely blocked.
"The wood attribute aura here is exceptionally dense. As expected of the gathering place of all kinds of tree demons. If a cultivator who cultivates wood attribute cultivation methods were to cultivate here, it would definitely be twice the result with half the effort."
"Although I've already grasped the power of the five elements, if I encounter a powerful tree demon here, I might not be able to suppress it. After all, it can borrow the wood attribute energy here to fight."
"Of course, if we really encounter a powerful tree demon, I'll leave it to you, Little Yingzi. I hope you can preserve your dignity."
