In the blink of an eye, an icicle appeared in front of the fair-skinned man. Under the mottled sunlight, the icicle reflected a rainbow-colored light!
Lu Ye suddenly felt that something was wrong.
Just now, he had gathered spiritual power in his eyes and clearly saw the spiritual light on the surface of his attacker's body. He judged that the other party was a cultivator above the third layer of the Spirit Stream Realm, but not yet at the fourth layer.
The other party's cultivation was higher than his, and from the fact that he had inexplicably been hit by the other party's blade just now, his combat experience was also above his.
Lu Ye had only cultivated for a short time and had not undergone any harsh cultivation, nor did he have any expert to guide him. The long sword in his hand was nothing more than the simplest slashes and stabs, and there were no moves or techniques to speak of.
His cultivation was inferior, his skills were inferior, and his opponent even knew a spell technique … The situation was already very bad.
Just as the icicle formed in the other party's hand, Lu Ye had already stomped his foot on the ground and rushed out with the help of the rebound force.
Lu Ye's reaction stunned the fair-skinned cultivator. He had thought that the other party would immediately run away, but who would have thought that this opponent would not retreat and instead advance.
His figure floated back again, and at the same time, the icicle shot out at an extremely fast speed.
The sharp icicle hit Lu Ye's body and was blocked by the golden light on the surface of his body. Although it did not hurt him, the rebound force made his chest feel stuffy, and even his forward momentum slowed down a lot. The golden light on the surface of his body dimmed a bit.
After the icicle shot out, spiritual light gathered in the fair-skinned man's hand again. He obviously wanted to condense a second icicle. The corners of Lu Ye's eyes twitched. In a fight between low-level cultivators, the side who knew a spell technique obviously had a big advantage.
"How many can you block?" The fair-skinned man kept a safe distance from Lu Ye as he teased him. The two of them, one chasing and one retreating, in just a short while, Lu Ye had been hit by three icicles. The golden light on his body had dimmed to the point of being annihilated, but he could not even touch the corner of his opponent's clothes.
This kind of battle made him feel sullen, and he wished he could take out a Fire Snake Talisman to teach his opponent how to behave.
However, he suppressed this impulse. He was not sure if a Fire Snake Talisman could kill his opponent. This was a cultivator, not one of the wolves he had killed when he first came to the battlefield. At this time, he did not have the right terrain to fight the tiger.
He already had a vague plan in his mind, but whether or not it could be carried out smoothly would depend on luck.
After the time it would take to brew a cup of tea, when Lu Ye was hit by another icicle, the golden light around his body finally disappeared. Struck by the icicles, he had already suffered some internal injuries, blood flowing from the corners of his mouth. Enveloped by the cold, he couldn't help but shiver.
He glared at the fair-skinned man with a resentful look on his face. He opened his mouth and spoke for the first time since the battle began, "What enmity do we have?"
The fair-skinned man chuckled. "No grudge."
Lu Ye remained silent, waiting for the rest of the story.
Sure enough, the fair and clear man said, "But if you can tell me where you found so many ores, I can spare your life!"
A sharp light flashed in Lu Ye's eyes as he confirmed where the problem lay. This confrontation was not a chance encounter, but someone had specifically come to find him! The reason was because of the ores he sold.
To be honest, Lu Ye had been very careful. During the three trips to the Tianji Business Alliance, he had traded with different people. Moreover, he had only sold a small portion of the ores each time, not daring to sell too much for fear of attracting the attention of others. On the way back, he had even circled around a few times to make sure no one was following him.
However, it turned out that someone was really up to no good. No matter how careful he was, it was useless unless he didn't go to the Tianji Business Alliance to sell things.
However, he needed spiritual pills to cultivate, so where else could he go but the Tianji Business Alliance?
What he could be sure of was that the Business Alliance wasn't the mastermind. Such a huge Business Alliance that claimed to be sincere and honest had no reason to target a small cultivator like him.
Therefore, it was very likely that some people in the Business Alliance were secretly doing something. Lu Ye thought back to the three Business Alliance cultivators he had traded with, but he couldn't think of anyone who had targeted him.
These three transactions were very ordinary. If there was anything unusual, it was only the first time when the woman called Liu Ruyin hinted at something. However, that didn't mean anything.
From the fair-skinned man's words, the other party suspected that he had found a mineral vein that contained all kinds of ores, so he wanted to inquire about the location of the mineral vein.
He didn't know that Lu Ye didn't have a mineral vein at all. His ores were all brought out from the Evil Moon Valley.
Seeing that Lu Ye didn't speak, the fair-skinned man's face darkened. "You refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit!" He made up his mind to beat Lu Ye half to death and then interrogate him about the location of the mineral vein.
With that, he rushed toward Lu Ye with his saber.
He didn't use the Icicle Spell again, mainly because it consumed too much energy. After breaking Lu Ye's Golden Body Talisman, he was confident that he could crush Lu Ye at will.
However, Lu Ye, who was acting tough just now, turned around and ran at lightning speed.
The fair-skinned man was so angry that he laughed. Looking at Lu Ye's back, he said leisurely, "You think you can run away?"
He chased after him unhurriedly. At the same time, he took out a spirit stone from his storage bag and held it in the palm of his hand to slowly recover.
He could see that Lu Ye was scared out of his wits. Running for his life like this would only increase the consumption of his spiritual power. Once a low-level cultivator lost his spiritual power, he was no different from a mortal. Steward Yang, who was killed by Lu Ye, was a precedent.
So, he just didn't lose Lu Ye.
The two of them, one chasing and one fleeing, passed through a stone forest and crossed a small river. When they arrived at an open space, the fair-skinned man found Lu Ye standing there, gasping for breath. His face was as pale as paper, and he didn't move at all.
Did he run out of spiritual power so quickly? The fair-skinned man sneered and slowly stepped forward. The long saber in his hand twirled, "Why aren't you running anymore?"
He stood about ten feet in front of Lu Ye with a mocking look on his face.
However, he soon found that something was wrong because Lu Ye's expression was extremely frightened. He was looking in a certain direction, and the hand holding the sword was trembling violently.
A fishy wind blew and a low roar sounded. Behind a big tree, a big tiger with a strong body and snow-white body walked out leisurely.
Its amber eyes looked at the fair-skinned man, causing him to be shocked. He suddenly remembered a rumor he heard in the market two days ago.
He couldn't be so unlucky, right? He wailed in his heart.
However, something happened that made him despair. The big tiger opened its mouth and spat out human words, "You dare to disturb this king's dream? I think you don't want to live anymore! "
The fair-skinned man's forehead was instantly covered with fine beads of sweat. He finally understood why Lu Ye was so frightened.
The source of the fear wasn't him, but the big tiger!
Just as he was at a loss, he heard Lu Ye say, "Tiger King, please spare us. We didn't know this was your territory. We'll leave now!"
When the fair-skinned man heard this, he nodded his head like a chicken pecking at rice.
The big tiger roared and said angrily, "You come and go as you please? Where do you think this is?"
