On the contrary, the other cultivators they met on the way, after detecting the aura of the three people, avoided them from afar, for fear of getting into trouble.
Of course, Li Yan and the other three did not detect the aura of cultivators above the Spirit Transformation Realm, otherwise they would have immediately chosen to avoid them at a very fast speed.
Unless there is something special going on, high-level monks simply don't bother to cause trouble for the younger generation. How boring that would be.
This was the case with Li Yan and the other three. They encountered many Jindan and foundation-building cultivators on the way, but they just flew past them. Those people didn't even know that there were Nascent Soul cultivators passing by overhead.
Li Yan spread out his spiritual sense and looked at the blurry scenery below and the earth that was rapidly retreating. A trace of confusion appeared in his eyes.
It was noon at this time, and groups of white clouds were rushing towards him from the front from time to time, and then were directly crashed into his arms by the "White Jade Boat".
The next moment, it passed through again and moved away, leaving a thin white line, connecting the white flowers that were far or near together, which was very beautiful.
The sun was glaring in the midday sky, and Li Yan was standing at the bow of the boat.
Looking at the blue sky that occasionally appears between the gaps between the white clouds coming towards me, for a moment, my mind is filled with a myriad of thoughts.
"Min'er, Aying, are you okay? I'm still alive..."
Li Yan didn't know that he already had a daughter, Li Zhaoyan. With Zhao Min's dull personality, she certainly wouldn't send a message to Fengshen Continent alone for this matter. She was just slowly waiting for Li Yan's return.
If Li Yan knew about Li Zhaoyan's existence, his mood would only be more complicated. He had never experienced the feeling of being a father for the first time. It must be an emotion of mixed feelings and even stronger longing.
As for the incident that happened on the Lost Continent, Li Yan had long since deliberately refused to think about it anymore, letting it blur in his memory. He was even less aware that there was a person named "Mu Sha" who existed.
Just when Li Yan's heart was touched, he, who was standing in front of the "White Jade Boat", suddenly changed his expression and stomped his toes on the bow of the "White Jade Boat".
The small boat, which was flying at a very high speed, suddenly fell straight towards the ground like a meteorite. Due to the rapid speed of the fall, the bodies of the three people on the boat seemed to be floating up.
Almost at the same time, Shangguan Tianque and Donglin Tingyue suddenly opened their eyes, and Li Yan's somewhat cold and short voice rang out in their minds.
"Enemy attack!"
“Squeak, squeak, squeak…”
Several sounds of breaking through the air passed through the previous position of the "White Jade Boat", and then, with long rays of light, they quickly rushed to the distant sky in all directions.
These attacks came from all directions. Even though Li Yan controlled the "White Jade Boat" to fall, he still flew past the edges of more than ten attacking lights.
The power of those lights was so incredible that the strong airflows they created were enough to cause the "White Jade Boat" to shake violently, as if it would be dismembered by the strong air at any time.
"Wow, that's a pretty quick reaction!"
Just as the "White Jade Boat" was falling, a clear voice sounded from the air below, with some surprise in the voice.
At this time, the "White Jade Boat" had stopped a thousand feet above the ground. Under Li Yan's powerful spiritual sense, those attacks were discovered by him as soon as they made any movements.
Li Yan quickly controlled the "White Jade Boat" to dodge left and right in the gaps between the various colors of light, and after several turns, it flew out of the attack range.
Li Yan and the other two stood in the boat, their spiritual awareness already spread in all directions.
At this moment, figures appeared around them. Li Yan just scanned with his spiritual sense and found that there were as many as six people.
The pressure emanating from them all came from Nascent Soul cultivators, three of them were late-stage great cultivators, and the other three were all middle-stage Nascent Soul cultivators.
The person who spoke was none other than a great cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage. He was a thin young man with a pointed chin and monkey-like features.
At this moment, he was looking at the three of them viciously, his eyes full of murderous intent, and his gaze was sweeping over the three of them with a hint of suspicion.
The remaining two late-stage monks were dressed in red robes, each with a hideous blood-red evil ghost mask on their face.
Although the two people have different body shapes, they are dressed exactly the same. Even the patterns and designs on their red robes are exactly the same, so it is impossible to tell whether they are a man or a woman.
The remaining three mid-Nascent Soul cultivators are an old man and two middle-aged men.
The remaining few people looked at Li Yan and the other two with unfriendly eyes, with murderous intent emanating from them without any concealment.
The skinny young man who spoke, when he saw three people appearing on the opposite side, a look of surprise flashed in the depths of his eyes, but he immediately turned cold again.
If he had not seen Shangguan Tianque take out this "white jade boat" by chance once before, he would not have taken action just now.
Because the "White Jade Boat" was so fast, when he saw it, he only had less than a breath of time to decide whether to take action.
Therefore, he couldn't see clearly how many people were in the boat with his spiritual sense. Having said that, even if he used his spiritual sense to scan, it might only trigger the restrictions outside the boat and he would be discovered by the other party.
It can't be called a sneak attack.
After such a long search, only this "White Jade Boat" was found, which was most similar to the one Shangguan Tianque had used before, so he decided to take action at that moment.
"Did they find the wrong person? No, they chose this place because it is the only way to the 'Pojun Gate', unless they are willing to take an extra month's detour and choose another route.
Shangguan Tianque must have gotten what he wanted at the auction, so he must have wanted to return as soon as possible, and would choose the fastest and shortest route..."
The skinny young man thought quickly in his mind. He felt that he should not have recognized the "White Jade Boat" wrongly, although this kind of flying magic weapon must be used by many people.
But the other party happened to appear here at this time. After they calculated the time when Shangguan Tianque might leave the market, they were at least 50% sure that the other party was the person they were looking for.
Then again, even if you kill the wrong person, you can't miss the possible opportunity.
"Who are you? Why did you attack us?"
The fat monk that Shangguan Tianque transformed into made a buzzing sound of anger, and his aura continued to rise. He seemed extremely angry.
At the same time, he was also observing the six people around him, but he didn't recognize any of them.
However, Shangguan Tianque already had a guess in his mind. Maybe the other party had changed his appearance just like the three of them. Since their cultivation levels were not much different, they were unable to see through each other's transformation techniques.
What no one noticed was that when the jade-like young man transformed by Dong Lin Tingyue saw the people who were attacking from all sides, especially when she saw the two late-stage monks in red robes, her pupils suddenly shrank.
Suddenly, a fierce look flashed in the depths of her eyes.
But at this moment, Shangguan Tianque, while questioning the other party harshly, also sent a message to her.
"Fairy Tingyue, do you know these people?"
Shangguan Tianque, who knew Li Yan's background, did not send any message to Li Yan. It seemed that it would be useless to ask. However, Dong Lin Tingyue might know these people who carried out the sneak attacks.
"I don't know them. They may have changed their appearance. Just by looking at the two red-robed masked monks, you can tell that they don't want others to know their origins. However, there are still some speculations. They may be coming for you..."
Dong Lin Tingyue also spoke quickly.
The other side actually had three late-stage great cultivators, and she was already thinking about how to get away. On her side, there was only one late-stage great cultivator, Shangguan Tianque, and Li Yan was at the same level as her.
Although everyone said that he attacked and killed Mang Yan, the information received also showed that Mang Yan was unaware of the other party's existence.
The Donglin family had also analyzed this situation. Among the same level, it would be very difficult to kill a Nascent Soul cultivator, especially a powerful hero like Mang Yan.
The most likely possibility here is that Shangguan Tianque set a trap and took advantage of various conditions to achieve this.
Therefore, whether it was Li Yan who killed Mang Yan himself in the end, might just be a scene that Shangguan Tianque wanted the outside world to see. The Donglin family was of course very clear about how cunning Shangguan Tianque was.
Perhaps only the sole Nascent Soul cultivator who escaped knew the truth, but that person had long since disappeared, and there was no way to trace him. Moreover, there were six Nascent Soul cultivators here, which completely crushed the three of them. Dong Lin Tingyue immediately judged that this battle was hopeless.
She had the idea of helping Shangguan Tianque before, but the moment she saw the six people, her thoughts began to disappear quickly, especially when she saw the two masked and red-robed monks wearing the same attire.
"No, I have to leave here, even if it's just to send this message!"
At this moment, Dong Lin Tingyue was very nervous.
Being surrounded by so many people, it was a luxury to leave. She had decided to abandon Li Yan. There was no other way. She could hardly protect herself, let alone help.
But at this moment, she couldn't move. If she moved, all attention would be focused on her, and she would become the target of everyone's criticism in an instant.
Therefore, she had to stay calm and wait for the opportunity to escape. Sometimes, other people's views and contempt were a joke.
Moreover, she also hoped that the six people on the other side had really found the wrong person.
And the next moment, Dong Lin Tingyue's expectations were completely shattered.
"Kill them quickly!!"
The skinny young man didn't know if he had found the wrong person, but since he had already taken action, he didn't want to hesitate any longer to avoid causing more trouble.
The reason for choosing this place is, first, that the other party must pass through it; second, this place is a remote place in the southwest, far away from the "Heavenly Demon Grassland" and the major sects.
Moreover, it is a certain distance away from the "Blood Lamp Sect", so even if the other party wants to find reinforcements, it will not be easy.
What's more, once the two sides start fighting, they may be able to see through each other's clues, so wasting words would be the most foolish thing to do.
As the skinny young man finished his words, six people including himself immediately surrounded the center and killed them decisively.
"Break out separately and don't get surrounded!"
Dong Lin Tingyue's heart sank suddenly. She didn't expect the other party to be so decisive and unwilling to say more. This is also the favorite method of many experienced monks.
If you talk too much, not only will you expose more of your intentions, but there is a greater chance that you will give the enemy time to prepare and end up in trouble.
She immediately sent a message to the two of them.
At the same time, she thought in her heart that the other party should be heading for Shangguan Tianque. Then, if she separated from the other party, the enemy might abandon her.
If my judgment is correct, at least the force chasing me may not be the enemy's top fighters.
"Okay!! What does Elder Li mean?"
Shangguan Tianque responded immediately.
The situation is critical right now. If the opponent is of equal strength to ours, then there is still a chance of a battle. In this situation, we can only break through by force.
But he also knew Li Yan's strength, but the time when Li Yan killed Mang Yan, it was indeed a sneak attack.
Therefore, he wanted to see what Li Yan was going to do, whether to fight here or what? If they were to break out in separate groups, they would have to rely on their own skills and luck.
"Disperse first, let's see how the other side deploys!"
Li Yan also answered quickly with a flickering look in his eyes.
After receiving Li Yan's reply, Shangguan Tianque, as an old demon over a thousand years old, immediately understood Li Yan's intention.
What Li Yan said was "disperse first" instead of "disperse"!
He immediately thought of one thing, the gathering of so many people, connected to Li Yan's identity as someone from the lower world and his previous actions.
Shangguan Tianque felt that the other party must have some trump card, but he didn't want them to know it. Li Yan also wanted to defeat them one by one instead of letting the enemies join forces.
Moreover, there are more people on the other side here, and both sides are joining forces to kill each other, so their power is more powerful than the three of them joining forces.
At this moment, Shangguan Tianque's decisiveness and courage were evident. He trusted the people he employed and would not employ them if he did not doubt them. He immediately passed the man to the two of them.
"Well, if we can escape, then we can meet at Mingxi Mountain, 100,000 miles away! Elder Li, how about it?"
At the end, he deliberately mentioned Li Yan.
"Disperse first!"
The message Li Yan conveyed to him was still the same one. This message was undoubtedly pointing out to Shangguan Tianque. He knew what the other party meant.
The so-called reunion was only told to Dong Lin Tingyue. At this time, Shangguan Tianque only believed in Li Yan.
As they were communicating quickly, the three of them flew away from the "White Jade Boat" in an instant. The "White Jade Boat" also turned into a ray of white light and flew into the fat monk's sleeves.
Then the three of them turned into three rainbow lights and soared into the sky. The other party was surrounded by six people, so of course they rose up and rushed in three directions.
The opponent cannot directly block the way in this way and can only chase from behind.
"You want to leave? There's no way!"
The skinny young man shouted loudly and quickly transmitted the message to the rest of the people.
"The key is Shangguan Tianque. Fellow Daoist Hu helped me. Fellow Daoist Ni, you and the others should quickly kill the other two!"
He immediately chose to head northwest, and the fat monk flew into the air to escape, with nothingness under his feet.
"Bang!"
With the explosion of force under his feet, he also chased in the air to the side.
At the same time, a yellow light flashed in his hand and disappeared into the void. The next moment, the yellow light was behind the fleeing fat monk.
He saw the "White Jade Boat" being taken away by the fat monk, and immediately, he realized that the other party might be the person he was looking for.
At the same time, a masked, red-robed cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage also flashed and was already not far behind Shangguan Tianque. The three of them were all in the late Nascent Soul stage and their speeds were almost the same.
The masked man in red robe suddenly had a long red whip in his hand, like a poisonous snake. It rushed straight forward, as if it had crossed thousands of mountains and rivers, and in an instant, it had arrived behind Shangguan Tianque.
Shangguan Tianque was suddenly filled with awe. The other party had indeed seen through his hidden cultivation level and instantly mobilized two late-stage great cultivators to deal with him.
Not far away in the direction where Li Yan was flying, there was an old man in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul. When he saw Li Yan flying towards him, he let out a series of strange laughs, and also shook his body and shot towards Li Yan above.
Another red-robed late Nascent Soul cultivator who was farther away from Li Yan looked dissatisfied after hearing the skinny young man's voice transmission.
The purpose of their trip was Shangguan Tianque. Now that their target was almost locked on, they were actually asking him to deal with a cultivator in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul. They immediately felt dissatisfied.
He was not the other party's subordinate. The two parties only had a cooperative relationship because they had the same goal. He and the other masked red-robed man, whoever killed Shangguan Tianque, received different rewards after returning to the sect.
Before, when the three people of "Bai Yuzhou" showed up and spoke, he and another masked red-robed man began to quickly detect the three people opposite, and then they confirmed each other.
Although the fat monk's cultivation level has been hidden, he is undoubtedly in the late Nascent Soul stage. He might be Shangguan Tianque.
This is not the first time they have come out to carry out such a mission. In order to deal with the target, they carry magical tools to detect the target's cultivation level, because some old monsters have vicious minds and like to keep some tricks up their sleeves.
After testing, it was found that the remaining two were undoubtedly in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul. One of them might be Li Yan, but no one knew who the other one was.
