Whoops!
Seeing the destruction of the wooden house, Xiao Yulan did not lose her reason in anger. She sent out a signal for help from her sleeves. The red fireworks bloomed once in the air, then rose again, then bloomed a second time, and reached the third level. It bloomed for a second time before disappearing completely.
Xiao Yulan quickly said to Xiao Chen, "This is the highest level distress signal. It won't be long before the third elder and the others are here."
Xiao Chen looked at the man in black who had discovered the fireworks and was rushing towards them. He felt helpless. By the time the Third Elder and the others arrived, there would probably be only two corpses left.
If Xiao Chen was the only one here, he could easily leave after releasing the Thunder Escape Technique. Unfortunately, it was not possible for him to use the Thunder Escape Technique with one person at his current level.
The two of them kept running in the forest, dodging arrows shot from behind from time to time. This made the speed much slower. If they couldn't find a solution, they would soon be overtaken.
Xiao Chen's body was in the air, and he turned over nimbly, avoiding an arrow again, and said anxiously: "Cousin Yulan, if you keep going like this, you will be overtaken sooner or later."
Xiao Yulan looked back at the situation behind her. The men in black kept jumping on the branches without stopping. These people should be professionally trained crossbowmen, and they did not stop even when shooting.
Opening her hands, Xiao Yulan danced in the air. Countless red petals fell from the sky, and the scent of poinsettia spread in the forest.
Xiao Yulan stopped, drew out the Water-Breaking Sword, stood on the spot and danced gracefully, like a nimble elf. The arrows that were shot seemed to have encountered an invisible aura and all deflected away.
Red sword rays of light flew around, and Xiao Yulan kept dancing among the petals in the sky. Countless red sword rays of light shot out through the Shuishui Sword in all directions.
The red sword light is really beautiful in the air, but these beautiful sword lights all contain the poison of poinsettia. If you get a trace of it, you will be poisoned immediately.
The dense red sword light almost filled the space around Xiao Yulan, and the entire space was filled with poinsettia pollen. These highly poisonous pollen seemed extremely strange and beautiful at this time.
The more beautiful things in the world are, the more deadly they are. The man in black who was chasing looked at the red space in front of him and wisely stopped. Not everyone has the courage to try one of the five poisonous poinsettias in the world.
Xiao Chen in the front stared blankly at Xiao Yulan among the flying petals. At this time, she was like a fairy, dancing the most charming dance in the world, which made people addicted and unable to extricate themselves.
"Let's go, cousin Xiao Chen."
At some point, Xiao Yulan stopped dancing, suddenly appeared behind Xiao Chen, took his wrist, changed direction, and ran forward.
This direction is towards the core area of Qijiao Mountain. The spirit beasts in the core area are much more ferocious than those in the outer areas, and their grades are extremely high. Ordinary warriors, even great martial arts masters, would not dare to go deep into it.
Xiao Yulan has been practicing here for nearly ten years. Relying on his familiarity with the terrain, after entering the interior of Qijiao Mountain, he is very confident and can get rid of the pursuers behind him.
Xiao Chen came back to his senses, looked at Xiao Yulan who was holding his wrist, and said: "Actually, cousin, my injury has healed and I can leave on my own."
Xiao Yulan did not answer his question, but held his hand and kept running forward, saying calmly: "You are almost dead, and you still care about these things."
In her opinion, Xiao Chen was only at the level of a low-grade warrior. Now that he was being chased, she naturally had to lead him so that he could go faster.
But Xiao Chen's strength is not as simple as it seems on the surface. With Xiao Yulan taking the lead, the speed of both of them will drop a lot.
Xiao Chen was about to answer when Xiao Yulan suddenly stopped and looked coldly ahead. Under the big trees in front, a man in black stood quietly.
"Hand over the Soul Blood Jade, or die!" The man in black said calmly, without any emotion in his tone.
The poison of the poinsettia can block those martial arts masters, but the man in black has reached the peak of the high-level martial arts master, so he naturally has a way to avoid the poison of the poinsettia.
There are warriors in the realm of great martial arts appearing around him all the time, which makes Xiao Chen very depressed. With his own strength, even if he encounters a martial artist, he has the ability to fight.
But if he reaches the peak of a great martial arts master, he can only use Qinglong to go out to sea to fight to the death. But after the lesson learned last time, he will not dare to use this terrifying heaven-level martial arts indiscriminately again.
Xiao Yulan didn't answer, and petals all over the sky appeared around her again. The Water-Breaking Sword in her hand stabbed the man without hesitation.
"Seeking death." The man in black snorted coldly, struck out like lightning, tilted his body slightly to avoid the sword, stretched out two fingers, pointed them as a sword, and stabbed Xiao Yulan's forehead.
Xiao Yulan retreated sharply, but the man in black did not pursue him. He struck back, and a piranha flower shot out from his hand. The buds of the piranha flower opened wide, like the giant mouth of a ferocious beast. Bite the poinsettia behind you.
It turned out that this person had known for a long time that Xiao Yulan had planted a poinsettia behind him. The first blow was just a superficial attack, and the subsequent one was the killing.
Piranha flowers can absorb all the pollen inside and then consume it, resulting in greater toxicity. No wonder he is not afraid of the poison of the poinsettia, and can also be alert to the poinsettia that quietly appears behind him.
The sudden situation gave Xiao Yulan no time to take back his martial spirit. A hissing sound came out, and the piranha had bitten hard on the poinsettia and kept chewing it.
The situation was critical. When Xiao Yulan was fighting, he was surrounded by poinsettia petals. The poison of poinsettia does not distinguish between friend and foe, so Xiao Chen could not get close to help.
At this time, we couldn't keep it any more. Xiao Chen shouted softly, "Thunder Technique!"
Lightning cut through the void and struck towards the man in black with a roar. The man in black did not dare to lift his weight and immediately flew back. Just as he stood still, the thunder and lightning in the sky fell towards him again.
Xiao Chen's consciousness has locked onto him, and he can instantly determine his foothold. As long as he retreats, the thunderbolt technique can immediately strike him down again.
However, given Xiao Chen's level, such rapid and continuous spell casting could only last three times. After three times, he would have to rest for a while before casting again.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xiao Yulan quickly took back the poinsettia. The intact poinsettia had been devoured by the piranha, leaving only one incomplete petal.
The man in black once again avoided a bolt of lightning, with a cold look in his eyes, staring at Xiao Chen. With a wave of his hand, the ferocious piranha opened its bloody mouth and flew towards Xiao Chen like lightning.
Xiao Chen was horrified when he looked at the terrifying piranha. There were even sharp teeth on the flower's mouth that only carnivorous animals could grow. There was a cold light shining on the teeth.
Xiao Chen's thoughts were like lightning in his heart, and he was quickly thinking of ways to deal with it. His biggest reliance should have been the Qinglong Wuhun, but at this time the soul weapon had been destroyed, and naturally he could no longer exert the power of the Qinglong Wuhun.
The only thing that can be relied on is the Purple Thunder True Fire, but the Purple Thunder True Fire has been facing a very serious problem for a long time. It has more than enough stickiness but insufficient penetrating power. The ordinary warrior's vitality shield can simply resist it, and the Purple Thunder True Fire penetrates it.
How can we make the Purple Thunder True Fire more penetrating
It's just that at this moment, it's too late to think about the situation. The piranha will soon be approaching. If the piranha is close to him and he doesn't have a soul weapon, he will probably be swallowed up to pieces in a short time. Leftover.
Phew!
Purple flames gathered from Xiao Chen's fingertips, focusing his spiritual consciousness on it. Xiao Chen had a sudden idea and used the skills in refining medicine to quickly turn the purple thunder true fire with his spiritual consciousness.
With each turn, a lot of vitality in Xiao Chen's body was consumed, but the power contained in the Purple Thunder True Fire increased significantly.
With a whooshing sound, the flames flew towards the piranha rapidly, reaching perfection in an instant.
boom! The flames hit the piranha, causing a violent explosion. The huge piranha turned into countless stars and returned to the body of the man in black.
An explosion actually occurred, which was a bit different from what Xiao Chen imagined. He originally thought that the increased power of the purple thunder true fire could penetrate the piranha, defeat it, and then directly attack the man in black.
It seemed that I would have to think about it more in the future, but the immediate crisis was finally solved for the time being. Xiao Chen took out the Soul Blood Jade from the Qiankun Ring.
"The Soul Blood Jade is in my hand. I want to take it.
Just catch me first and then talk. "Xiao Chen said loudly to the man in black. At this time, Xiao Yulan was injured and could not fight for the time being. He had to lure the man in black away by himself.
As long as he is lured away alone, it should be easier to escape with his own thunder escape technique. In this way, cousin Yulan can also get a chance to escape.
Seeing Xiao Chen's figure running away, the man in black took a deep breath, regrouped the martial spirit in his body, tiptoed, lifted his body off the ground, and chased after Xiao Chen.
His purpose was just to get the Soul Blood Jade, nothing else mattered. Since the Soul Blood Jade was with Xiao Chen, he no longer had to worry about Xiao Yulan.
Xiao Yulan's face was extremely pale. She looked at Xiao Chen's leaving figure with a complicated expression on her face. She held the Broken Water Sword in her hand and kept trembling. In her mind, it was like a battle between heaven and man, whether to pursue or not.
She naturally knew that Xiao Chen led the man in black away just to give her a chance to escape. With the man in black's cultivation, the two of them working together were no match for him. It would be better to lead him away alone and leave him alone. Someone else.
If she catches up now, all the efforts of Xiao Chen's cousin will be in vain, but if she has to leave, she doesn't believe that Xiao Chen, who has just recovered from a serious injury, can escape the pursuit of the man in black.
How to make her feel at ease!
At the same time, sitting somewhere in the Xiao family station in Qijiao Mountain, the third elder of the Xiao family looked at the sky, and red fireworks suddenly bloomed three times, and the eyebrows on his face twitched fiercely.
"Go ahead and notify all the Xiao family disciples above the martial arts master level. We will also find someone to go down the mountain and inform the eldest elder. Tell him that the eldest lady is in danger and ask him to invite Elder Liu out. Hurry!"
The people under his command had never seen such a serious expression on the third elder's face. Knowing that the matter was serious, they immediately took action.
For a time, the undercurrent surged in Qijiao Mountain and the situation changed.
