Early in the morning, the light of the winter sun shone on the accumulated snow of Xiong Nan Mountain, making the already dazzling snow look like a silver mirror. It was so bright that no one dared to look at it directly.
The winding Xiong Nan Mountain looked like an ice monster hibernating there. Somewhere in a small wind-sheltered mountain valley full of shrubs and strange rocks, a rock suddenly moved.
The accumulated snow on the rock fell down in an instant, and the top of the rock suddenly trembled. When a piece of snow fell down, two pitch-black eyes were revealed, and they started to spin strangely.
"Why hasn't anyone caught up yet? Could it be that the people who helped the Chai brothers didn't enter the mountain? Or are those people really bad at tracking? Did I leave a lot of clues behind? " The eyes looked puzzled. This person was Ling Dong, who had quickly left after killing people last night.
Ling Dong wasn't familiar with the terrain of Xiong Nan Mountain, but that didn't mean that he didn't have any survival skills. On the contrary, Ling Dong had always thought that his cultivation level was higher than his. The anti-tracking skills he had honed after hundreds and thousands of pursuits were definitely not for show.
After leaving last night, Ling Dong thought that there might be people following him, so he took care of it. While hiding his whereabouts, he also left behind some clues so that they wouldn't lose track of him.
Since they dared to scheme against Ling Dong, they had to be prepared to be schemed against.
What made Ling Dong gloomy was that he had waited for half a night in this small valley with complicated terrain, but he didn't even see half a shadow of his pursuer. That was why he muttered to himself.
He had no choice but to disguise himself and sit there cross-legged to cultivate. Even when the winter sun rose, he still hadn't seen half a shadow. This made Ling Dong a little suspicious. Was it because those people's tracking skills were so bad that they had lost track of him?
On the path of cultivation, there were too few shortcuts other than daily revision. Thus, even if he was in the wilderness, Ling Dong wouldn't stop cultivating.
At this moment, Ling Dong's body was covered in a fur coat made of pure white snow wolf skin. His head and body were completely covered in the fur coat, leaving only his eyes exposed. In addition, Ling Dong used the wind from his palms to blow up the snow to cover the fur coat. Unless one walked very close, no one would be able to discover that there was a living person under the snow-covered boulder.
"Since they didn't chase after me, consider yourself lucky!" With a cold snort, Ling Dong didn't immediately get up. Instead, he circulated the earth energy in his body and began to disperse the numbness in his legs from sitting in the cold snow for an entire night.
"Damn, didn't Hall master Hu say that the kid had never entered the mountain before? Why couldn't they find a single strand of human hair after a whole night of tracking in the snow? Could it be that we've gone the wrong way? "A slightly exasperated voice sounded from afar. Ling Dong, who was in the middle of cultivating, tensed up. A gust of wind from his palm shot out soundlessly, covering the snow behind him to the top of his head. Then, he stopped breathing and his body became motionless. The rock that had just come to life didn't move anymore.
"Gone the wrong way? Are you doubting my ten-odd years of experience in the mountains? "The confident and cold voice immediately filled the group with the smell of gunpowder.
"Then why didn't we catch him for an entire night …" The questioning voice from before softened its tone.
"Didn't you see that even Hall master Hu couldn't be sure and had to split up?" The expert tracker with the confident and cold voice spoke again. "But there's one thing I can be sure of. That kid is definitely not the newbie that Hall master Hu said had never entered the mountains before. Not only is he not a newbie, but he's also a veteran of the mountains. Moreover, he's definitely comparable to some Demon Hunters who have been around for ten-odd years. He's even … about the same as me."
"About the same as you? Hmph, Big Nose, keep bullshitting! It's not like we don't know that kid. He's Lao San from the Ling family, Ling Dong. What else can that kid do other than drink and play with women? When we went to the Heavenly Fragrance Brothel to have fun, that kid who hasn't even grown his hair was already monopolizing the Heavenly Fragrance Brothel's top hostess! "
"I'm bullshitting? If you're so capable, why don't you run in the snow for an entire night without leaving any tracks? Running in the snow without leaving any tracks at night. Even Hall Master Hu might not be able to do that! "The expert tracker nicknamed Big Nose was immediately enraged.
"Alright, alright, stop arguing. We'll know once we catch that kid!" Another person stepped forward to stop the argument. "There's a small col here that's sheltered from the wind. The two of you should go and pick up some dried branches, boil some hot soup, and cook some dry food to eat. I really don't f * cking understand. After chasing him for an entire night in the snowy mountains, all of you are as tired as dogs, and you still have the energy to argue? "
Immediately after, rustling sounds could be heard. They were probably clearing up the empty space and preparing to start a fire to boil some snow.
This kind of situation was very common, especially in winter. If one stayed in the snowy mountains for a long time and ate dry food in the snow every day, one's body would become more and more tired over time. At this time, a mouthful of hot soup was comparable to several meals of dry food.
"One … Three … Five!" Ling Dong, who was disguised as a rock covered in snow, didn't dare to move. He listened carefully to the sounds and identified the positions of the Boulder Gang members who were chasing him.
From the conversation just now, Ling Dong already understood that the pursuers from last night had split into two groups because they couldn't figure out the direction he was escaping in. Ling Dong also knew who Hall Master Hu was. His surname was Hu De, and he was the most capable subordinate of the Boulder Gang's leader, Ma Yingu. His cultivation was around Xiantian Realm Level Four or Five, and he had made outstanding achievements in the early days of the Boulder Gang.
Ling Dong was waiting for an opportunity. He wanted to use the least amount of energy to kill this group of people!
From the sounds of it, a pot had been set up, and the person who was picking up the branches had returned. The crackling sound of the firewood could be heard, and two people seemed to be sitting beside the fire.
"F * ck, I'll go boil some water. Throw in more meat jerky!" a nonchalant voice said.
"Get lost, don't be so disgusting here!" another person scolded jokingly.
Hearing the footsteps approaching, Ling Dong's body tensed up instantly. He blinked a few times, and the snow fell down. The scene in front of him was clear in his eyes.
A martial artist was humming something in his mouth and turned behind him. Just as he was about to take off his clothes and take out his thing to pee, the snow beside him suddenly stood up like a demonic beast, and a cold light flashed by ….
The martial artist who had just taken out his thing felt a sharp pain in his throat, and his consciousness quickly blurred …
As for the other three martial artists who were sitting around the bonfire, one of them happened to be facing Ling Dong. When he saw the strange scene, he screamed out loud!
"Ghost!" The blood of his companions and the sudden movement of the snow-colored monster caused the martial artist to instinctively roar in shock.
"What are you screaming for?" a martial artist who was throwing meat jerky scolded impatiently, but his instinct made him look back.
Then, he saw a huge white thing flying towards them. Their vigilance had been cultivated over the years, so they immediately raised the weapons in their hands and used their fiercest moves to hack at the white thing.
When they got closer, the three of them suddenly realized that the huge white thing seemed to be an oversized fur coat. It was a fur coat full of white fur!
The three of them had a bad feeling in their hearts at the same time!
"Hiss!"
In an instant, the oversized fur coat was cut into pieces by the three people's fierce attacks. Reflected in their eyes were three dazzling green lights hidden behind the fur coat …
As cultivators who hunted in the Majestic South Mountain all year round, they naturally wouldn't be hurt by such a small trick. When they made their moves, they held back thirty percent of their strength, and the weapons in their hands quickly flashed back, breaking the green light.
"Where is he?" There was an attack, but where did the attacker run off to?
"Uh … Uh …" Just as they were pondering this question, the person closest to the three martial artists had already fallen backwards with his eyes wide open and clutching his neck. His eyes were filled with fear and unwillingness.
"Big Nose!" As the other two exclaimed, a figure with green light flashing under his feet had already burst out from behind the martial artist called Big Nose. He raised his right hand abruptly and waved it in the air. With the Cloud Chasing Boots increasing his speed by 50%, Ling Dong's movements were extremely fast. With his cultivation, his speed was already comparable to that of a Xiantian Realm Level Four or Five martial artist.
The remaining two martial artists were stunned. Just as they were wondering why this fellow had waved his hand, a meter long blue astral blade suddenly flew out from the ambushing figure's hand. It spun in the air, and at the same time the astral blade disappeared, a large head tumbled to the ground!
At the same time, Ling Dong, with his Cloud Chasing Boots flashing with a hazy green light, suddenly appeared above the head of the fourth member of the Boulder Gang, who had been shocked by the mysterious light blade that had beheaded their comrade!
As the gang member cried out in alarm, Ling Dong's dagger stabbed viciously into his head, all the way to the hilt!
In less than half a minute, four Xiantian Realm martial artists had been taken care of.
"This Seven Star Giant Gate Ring is indeed not bad. Every time I use it, it's an accurate ambush! I wonder what kind of power it will have after I remove the seal or gather the other items? " Ling Dong rubbed the Seven Star Giant Gate Ring on his left hand. The one-meter long green light blade just now had come from the Seven Star Giant Gate Ring!
When Ling Dong turned his head to look at the last member of the Boulder Gang, who was picking up dead branches in the distance and hadn't returned, he saw a figure sprinting away like a wolf or a tiger!
After discovering that all four of his companions had died, the last member of the Boulder Gang wisely chose to escape.
"Alright, I'll let you pass the message in case Ma Yingu loses me!" After muttering this sentence, Ling Dong took out a map and studied it carefully for a while. Then, he lowered his body and quickly disappeared into the snow.
