Not finding anyone, Yan Baoru landed on the branches of a few other trees to search, but she still couldn't find anyone. She couldn't help but curse at Niu Youdao for being too vigilant. He was as cunning as an old fox, disappearing at the first sign of trouble.
She had been tailing behind Niu Youdao all this while. When Niu Youdao flew above the trees, she followed him in the forest below.
Logically speaking, if she was following behind, any birds or the like should have been startled away by Niu Youdao who was in front. Who knew that she would meet a nest of unknown silly birds hiding below, and was startled away by her head-on.
When she saw that Niu Youdao had sensed her and fell into the forest, she quickly turned around and hid behind a tree. Who knew that Niu Youdao would take advantage of the moment when she was out of sight to hide and quickly disappear.
Yan Baoru realized that she had met an expert in anti-tracking.
She didn't know that in this aspect, Niu Youdao wasn't as good as Yuan Gang. Yuan Gang was the real expert in this aspect. This anti-tracking method was taught to Niu Youdao by Yuan Gang.
However, there was one thing that she was sure of. Niu Youdao had not left her sight for a long time. If he were to flash again, it would be hard for him to avoid being discovered by her. Therefore, Daoist Niu Youdao should be in this area.
She wanted Niu Youdao to misjudge and think that it was a wild beast that startled the birds so that she could continue to follow him. Thus, she hid herself.
Who knew that after waiting for an hour, Niu Youdao still hadn't appeared. She couldn't hide anymore and suspected that Niu Youdao had escaped.
Then, she thought about it. If she was exposed, then so be it. At most, she wouldn't follow him anymore. After all, following Niu Youdao wasn't her main objective. Even if Niu Youdao escaped, she wasn't afraid. She knew who Niu Youdao was with and where they were. She could wait for him later!
In the end, she couldn't find him even after showing herself. She realized that the terrain was complicated and it was possible that Niu Youdao had escaped.
How could he escape like this? Yan Baoru secretly snorted.
However, she didn't give up easily and continued to search the area.
While the other party was far away and didn't notice them, Niu Youdao might have a chance to escape using the complicated terrain, but he didn't do so.
He was thinking about a question, the same question he had before. Was it really a coincidence?
He regretted not asking Situ Yao about Yan Baoru's situation. After he left the Yan Kingdom, was Yan Baoru still there?
If Yan Baoru left Yan's side later, then this might really be a coincidence.
If she hadn't left, she wouldn't have met Yan Baoru here after killing a group of people from the Yan Kingdom. Could it be a coincidence?
If it wasn't a coincidence, it was impossible for her to appear here halfway to follow him. Niu Youdao's heart was a little heavy. He didn't know how much Yan Baoru knew. Did she already know that he had joined forces with the people from overseas?
Yan Baoru, who was searching for a while, seemed to have given up. She suddenly jumped up to the top of the tree as if she wanted to leave.
Niu Youdao, who was hiding in the dark, turned around and quickly reached out to pick up a branch. With a crack, he broke it in his hand, as if he had accidentally stepped on a dead branch.
This crisp sound in the quiet forest immediately caused the beautiful figure who had just jumped up to the top of the tree to quickly fall back into the forest. Yan Baoru, who was resting on a branch, stared at this direction. Then, she floated down and landed on the weeds that were taller than a person's head. She waved her sleeves.
Wherever her transcendence energy swept, the weeds flew everywhere.
Yan Baoru used this method to clear the weeds in the forest and advanced towards the direction of the commotion. She searched the ground piece by piece.
Seeing that she was about to reach them, Niu Youdao flipped over the jagged rocks and stood up.
The two of them were separated by a distance of a few feet, facing each other.
Weeds fluttered around Yan Baoru, dirt and stones also fell around Niu Youdao.
Everything returned to silence. Seeing that Niu Youdao shook off the bugs that were crawling on his shoulder, Yan Baoru smiled, a rare bright smile appeared on her cold face, "Hide, continue to hide, why are you not hiding anymore?"
Niu Youdao, "You're almost stepping on my head, I really can't hide anymore. It's my bad luck, if I just hold on a little longer, it should be over soon."
Yan Baoru sneered, "Indeed, you almost got your way."
Niu Youdao, "How did you know I was here, was it a coincidence?"
"A coincidence?" Yan Baoru sneered, "I followed you for a few days, there were too many people around you, I thought it would be difficult to get close to you, but you actually left the group alone. Originally, I wanted to follow you to see what kind of conspiracy you and those demons and ghosts are up to. But as a result, I was accidentally discovered by you. I have to admit that you can really endure. Just a little bit wrong, you can actually hide for so long, and I almost let you slip away. It's indeed as you said, your luck is a bit bad. "
What she learned from Li Wuhua was limited. She only knew that Spirit Sword Mountain found the trace of Niu Youdao and wanted to chase after him. No one thought that Niu Youdao was actually with those demons and ghosts. The group of Spirit Sword Mountain bumped into the knife's edge.
She only knew that Spirit Sword Mountain accidentally found Niu Youdao, but she didn't know that it was Niu Youdao who deliberately lured them.
She couldn't get close to Niu Youdao's group, and she didn't know what Niu Youdao and the others were up to.
Until now, she didn't think that Niu Youdao was the bait, because she didn't think that those demons and ghosts dared to go against the forces of the Seven Countries.
Therefore, when she found out that Niu Youdao left the group alone, she wanted to follow him to see what he was up to.
However, when her words fell into the ears of Niu Youdao, it was very different. Niu Youdao's heart sank. This woman really found out that he was in the same group as those people overseas.
"It's good that you showed up. It's tiring to follow behind sneakily. If I want to know something, I can just ask you directly." Yan Baoru added with a cold snort.
Niu Youdao: "I think you're just curious, you don't have any bad intentions towards me, right?"
Yan Baoru: "You're very treacherous. You wouldn't forget the test a few months ago so quickly, would you? You should know very well what I mean to you. "
Niu Youdao: "I have no enmity with you, I guess it wasn't your intention to target me. I'm about to die, shouldn't you let me know the reason behind my death? Who sent you?"
Yan Baoru: "That's not important. Tell me, what are you doing with those demons and ghosts? If I'm satisfied with your answer, I might let you live. "
Niu Youdao: "What else can people do in a place like this? It's nothing more than looking for a spirit seed."
Yan Baoru: "If it was before this, I might have believed your nonsense, and I have no reason not to believe you. Other than looking for a spirit seed, what else can we do? But you left alone, does it look like you're looking for a spirit seed? I've been following you for so many days, and other than resting, I've been hurrying along. I don't see any signs of you looking for a spirit seed. Niu Youdao, I'm very dissatisfied with your answer. I advise you not to refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit. When I pry open your mouth, it won't feel good. I'm a clean person, and I really don't want to dirty my hands. "She raised her hand and stroked her slender fingers in self-pity.
"I think you can't even protect yourself!" Niu Youdao said as he looked behind her.
Yan Baoru's heart tightened, and she suddenly turned around. There was no one there. Sensing that something was wrong, she turned around again, and Niu Youdao's sword was already unsheathed. A cold light flashed, and a few rays of sword aura were released.
Yan Baoru waved her sleeves, and a few rumbling sounds were heard. The power of her sleeves actually destroyed the rays of sword aura that were coming at her. It was as if her sleeves were made of iron.
Yan Baoru was furious that he dared to play such tricks on her. She dashed forward and chased after Niu Youdao who was fleeing in the forest.
Her sleeves fluttered, and like a goshawk hunting a fleeing hare, she quickly caught up to her target.
Yan Baoru was in the air, and her jade-like palm turned and pushed forward.
Niu Youdao suddenly realized that the air around him seemed to have frozen, and was filled with an unbelievably strong tension. It was as if he was stuck in a transparent liquid, and it was difficult for him to fly.
Yan Baoru's jade-like palm pulled again.
Niu Youdao immediately felt the air currents around him suddenly drag him back as he was about to land. This space seemed to have been controlled by Yan Baoru's transcendence energy.
Yan Baoru quickly struck out with her palm.
The surging and retracting airflow suddenly slapped back like an avalanche, slapping Niu Youdao's back with a loud bang. Niu Youdao was directly slapped away with a loud bang.
The bag was torn apart, and the shining purple Spiritual Seeds flew like rain.
"Pu!" Niu Youdao spat out a mouthful of blood as he crashed into a tree, and fell to the ground.
In a flash, Yan Baoru was already standing in front of Niu Youdao. She looked left and right at the swirling purple rain, and was a little surprised.
She suddenly flipped her sleeves, and a whirlwind formed around her, and the weeds and rocks on the ground suddenly spun and danced.
She, who was in the center of the whirlwind, stretched out one hand, and beads of purple light shot out from the whirlwind, and gathered in her palm.
Very quickly, a large ball of Purple Crystal, which was made up of Spiritual Seeds, appeared in her palm.
The Spiritual Seeds that had just fallen were actually picked up by her in an instant.
She flicked her other sleeve, and the spinning whirlwind suddenly spread out, cleaning up the surroundings. The wind gradually subsided after it had gone far away.
Yan Baoru looked down from above, and coldly looked at Niu Youdao, who was panting on the ground with a deathly pale face, and blood dripping from the corner of his mouth. He looked like he was on the verge of death. Yan Baoru single-handedly held out the large ball of Purple Crystal, "You actually have so many Spiritual Seeds on you, tell me, what are you planning?"
"We …" Niu Youdao said vaguely. The rest of his words could not be heard clearly.
With one hand holding the Purple Crystal, and the other grasping in the air, Yan Baoru lifted the fallen Niu Youdao up.
She was about to grab the Purple Crystal by the chest of Niu Youdao, so that she could question him when Niu Youdao's weak eyes suddenly opened, and with a cold expression, he struck out with his palm.
"You're courting death!" Suddenly, Yan Baoru shouted, and launched a sneak attack from a close distance. Caught off guard, her five claws turned into a palm, and with a boom, she blocked Niu Youdao's palm.
The huge tree behind Niu Youdao, which he was pressing down on with his other hand, exploded into pieces on the spot with a loud boom.
Yan Baoru was shocked, she felt that the power of her palm did not completely hit Niu Youdao, but most of it hit the tree.
