Yan Qing couldn't help but stand up.
Why would the alchemists of Xu State come to such a place
If this matter was related to Qi Sensers, she couldn't turn a blind eye - the pursuers sent by Xu Guoguo were unlikely to be controlled by the Privy Council of Qi State, unless she could take out the seven-star token. And these people running rampant within the boundaries of Shenzhou may endanger Li's safety.
To be on the safe side, she had to at least find out the other party's intention.
Thinking of this, Yan Qing slapped several coins on the table, turned around and ran down the teahouse.
"Excuse me!"
"Please give way!"
She took out the silver chain on her wrist and pointed one end at the two people's retreating figures.
"Kun Shu is Yin, and the earth weaves a web."
The chain activated by the spell slowly floated, locking the direction of the target's aura.
Since the iron rope was confiscated by the Privy Council, Yan Qing had no time to make new chains along the way, so she could only use this kind of decoration to make up for it. It may not be useful in fighting, but the functions of spells such as memorizing aura and providing early warning that do not depend on the strength of the weapon are pretty much the same.
Under the guidance of the bracelet, she maintained a distance of about a hundred steps from the opponent. As long as she suppressed the flow of Qi, even Qing Jian would have a hard time detecting someone following her from this distance.
Unless one of the two has a special anti-tracking technique.
But making such a big noise in the city only shows that they are also a little careless.
The target moved all the way to a secluded place, and since it was midnight, the number of people moving around quickly decreased. It was obvious that the person being tracked was also deliberately avoiding the crowd, which made Yan Qing frown slightly.
-This man is undoubtedly a fool when it comes to escaping.
Remote places may seem like an easy place to hide, but in fact this is only true for people who have lived there for a long time. Because foreigners are not familiar with the place, they will make themselves a conspicuous target. Even if the pursuers will be shaken off for a while, they can quickly reduce the containment area by buying off local people.
The correct approach should be to flee to a crowded place.
The more people there are, the better they can confuse their traces. Even if there are witnesses, it is impossible for Xu Guo Alchemist to instantly screen out the helpers who can provide intelligence from a large number of people.
It can be said that when the other party chooses to enter the streets and alleys of this outer city, it will be a matter of time before they are caught up.
For Yan Qing, the ideal situation is naturally when the alchemist catches the target and she can sneak in around both parties. During this period, whether talking or fighting, he can provide her with a lot of detailed information.
However, at this moment, the bracelet suddenly dropped and no longer indicated the direction.
Yan Qing couldn't help but be startled.
Lost the opponent's aura in the web-weaving technique
There are only two situations that can lead to such a situation - one is that the opponent casts an alchemy, blocking the effect of the tracking spell.
The second is that the other party is dead.
But how could...
The two of them were at least hundred-edged alchemists, which meant that they had fought with many Qi-sensing people with real swords and spears, and were not the kind of "newcomers" who only dealt with evil spirits step by step. If you want to deal with them quietly, your opponent must be at least at a defensive level, and their usual techniques must be more like assassination.
For example, Yu Linglong, the "projection" of Gyeonggi Province.
Of course, the first situation is not good news. The other party suddenly blocks tracking, which means that they have noticed that there is a third party following behind.
Yan Qing immediately raised her vigilance to the highest level.
At this time, it is no longer safe to return the way you came. Retreating when faced with difficulties may be a good choice in normal times, but at this moment, the other party may also take advantage of this and turn the retreating road into a trap full of dangers.
She decided to move on.
First of all, when the tracking was interrupted, the distance between the two parties was only a hundred steps. In other words, the two people were deep in the alley in front of them. Just by turning a corner, she could see what was happening ahead.
Secondly, it is out of the self-confidence of a Qingjian. She has participated in hundreds of battles, and there are countless situations that are much more dangerous than this. Her ability to stand out from a large group of alchemists and survive to this day is definitely not due to luck. Even if she lacks the weapons, she is still Yan Qing, the lock weaver.
The alley was pitch dark at this time, with not even a trace of moonlight above her head. The ice and snow under her feet made a thin crackling sound, which was the only sound she could hear.
Stepping into the alley, Yan Qing leaned down and let the bracelet seep into the ground and spread. The chain that was originally only half a foot long kept sinking, as if it had infinite length. And these silver chains that appeared out of thin air expanded around her, forming a huge "net" with her as the center!
This is Yan Qing's most unique technique.
If Bai Zhan's unpredictable swordsmanship is hard to guard against and she is the strongest attacker in Kunshu, then she is the strongest defender. She can sense the environment and changes in the network without using her eyes. No matter which direction the enemy comes from, she can get early warning.
Soon, the flowing chain "smelled" the taste of blood.
In the dark alley, where the hands could not be seen, the figure of a human man was outlined. He fell face down on the ground, and the heat in his chest was melting the surrounding ice and snow little by little.
Then, the second person was also searched.
He fell only three steps away from the first person, with his body curled up and a charm in his hand.
She knew the answer now.
The two Hundred Blades were almost killed within a few breaths - there were no traces of fighting at the scene, only a few messy footprints, proving that they were strongly suppressed at the moment of contact with the enemy, failed to organize an effective counterattack, and were still in panic. He was brought down. Apart from highly targeted techniques, the only possibility that could do this was that the person being tracked had strength beyond expectations.
The chain continued to stretch, and just before the edge reached the end of the alley, it touched a foot.
But this time, Yan Qing failed to see the scene outlined by the net. She raised her foot slightly and then stepped on the bracelet - she knew that it was not a real "step on" because the silver chain made of air was on the surface. Under it, it will not be blocked by any ground obstacles, but the expanding net suddenly stops, as if it can no longer cross the limit at its feet.
More than that, Yan Qing felt an indescribable pressure coming along the chain, as if there was no longer a low house at the end of the dark alley, but a huge bloody mouth. Anyone who walked into it would be... It’s the food that goes into the other person’s mouth!
This momentum even caused the silver chains to stand up, and they spontaneously wanted to build a chain wall for protection.
"Are you here to catch me too?"
A cold voice came from the darkness.
Then, Yan Qing saw a pair of eyes.
It might have been there from the beginning, or it might have just opened, but no matter what, those eyes definitely didn't belong to humans.
It was clearly a lightless night, but it reflected a faint light. The sides of the pupil were golden, and the center of the pupil was pitch black - and the most special thing was that the black pupil was in the shape of a spindle, like a vertical slit. .
