As he ran along, Ye Li was quite sure that he had gotten rid of the pursuers behind him. However, he still hadn't found Luffy, which made him a little worried about him.
After all, Luffy's strength was too weak. He was only at the Spiritual Sea stage and did not have much ability to protect himself.
Ye Li was moving very fast, and he had already started trying to expand the search range in order to find Luffy's location as soon as possible.
While running, Ye Li suddenly heard the sounds of fighting and noise. He found that in a valley not far to the left, there seemed to be many people fighting.
Ye Li was stunned for a moment, then rushed over. When he looked up, a look of surprise appeared on his face.
Because the person fighting in the valley was none other than Luffy, who had been separated from him.
Luffy was surrounded by a dozen people. The strength of these people was not very strong. Except for a Lingdan stage talisman master, the rest were at the Linghai stage.
But even with just this small number of people, it was enough to restrain Luffy and prevent him from escaping.
Luffy was restrained and had no way to escape. He struggled to break through the encirclement for a while, but was forced back to where he was.
His strength was indeed too weak, and he was unable to break through the opponent's restraints. After struggling for a while, he had very little strength left. He could only stay in the center of the encirclement, looking at the enemies around him with hatred.
The Spiritual Pill Stage Spiritual Talisman Master took a closer look at Luffy and said, "It looks like it was you. Although we have no grudges against each other, we have been ordered to kill you, and we will not hold back. If you want to blame someone, you can only blame your bad luck."
After the Spiritual Pill Stage Spirit Talisman Master finished speaking, he was ready to take action himself and end Luffy's life.
Just as he was about to take action, a figure fell from the sky and landed in front of him.
Before he could react, he felt a pain in his chest and a huge impact force knocked his body away.
The huge impact force crushed his entire chest and deflated his sternum.
The last thing a spiritual talisman master in the Lingdan period saw before his death was a fiery red mask, and then he lost consciousness immediately.
"Kou... Brother Kou, you... you are still alive!!!"
The moment Luffy saw the person coming, an extremely excited smile appeared on his face. He did not expect that Ye Li could still survive.
Ye Li had just hit the Lingdan-stage Lingfu Master with his left palm and killed him directly. At this time, the others also reacted. For a moment, they didn't understand Ye Li's cultivation level and attacked him instinctively.
Ye Li's figure turned into a gust of wind and circled in the crowd. He did not use any attacking spells, but just used his left palm to slap continuously, shattering everyone's defense.
Ye Li slapped everyone on the chest, and the huge force shattered their sternums and turned their hearts into meat paste under the pressure.
Ye Li's powerful strength killed all the people who besieged Luffy in an instant, and in the blink of an eye, only he and Luffy were left in the valley.
"Finally I found you. It seems I was going in the right direction."
Ye Li said in a relaxed tone.
After killing the people in front of him, Luffy's crisis was averted.
Luffy was so excited that he rushed to Ye Li and wanted to give him a hug.
Ye Li quickly stretched out his left hand to stop him, saying: "Please don't hug me. I have wounds all over my body now, and most of them have just healed. If you squeeze them too hard, they might all break open again, and then it will be bad."
After looking Ye Li up and down, he also found that Ye Li's right hand seemed to be hanging down at his side, so he said: "Brother Kou, are these injuries really the ones you got when you escaped from that Divine Spirit Stage master? Is he still chasing us now
It's incredible that you were able to escape from the hands of a master in the Divine Spirit Stage!"
Ye Li smiled and said, "I have already killed that guy, so he can't chase us anymore. We should be safe for the time being."
Hearing Ye Li's words, Luffy showed a shocked expression on his face and said, "You...what did you say, you killed that master in the Godly Stage!!!"
Kou... Brother Kou, are you kidding me? How could you kill someone across so many levels?"
Ye Li had no way to explain his abilities to Lu Fu in detail, so he could only answer casually: "I also won by luck, after all, that Divine Spirit Stage Spirit Talisman Master is not from your Haiyuan clan, and his physical cultivation is very weak.
He thought I was weak, so he didn't use any defensive spells. After I deliberately approached him, I suddenly burst out at my fastest speed and stuck close to him.
He didn't react in time, so I punched him in the vitals and killed him on the ground."
Hearing Ye Li's words, Lu Fu showed a skeptical look on his face, but he thought about Ye Li's injuries and then speculated: "I understand, he must want to torture you, so he deliberately didn't kill you and kept attacking your body.
In the end, he even tried to get close to you, so that gave you the chance to kill him!"
Ye Li was also stunned when he heard Luffy's speculation. He didn't expect Luffy to think so.
However, he did not intend to correct the other party. Instead, he nodded and said, "Basically, it's the same. Anyway, he gave me an opportunity to take advantage of it."
Luffy thought he had guessed correctly, and a smug look appeared on his face. He said, "Hey, it seems that my analysis is completely correct."
At this point, he showed a guilty look on his face and said, "Brother Kou, it's all my fault. I caused you to get hurt so much.
When that guy tortured you, he must have used heavy force. Is your right hand crippled?"
Ye Li glanced at his right hand, then looked at Luffy's guilty eyes and said, "My right hand was not broken by him torturing me. It was broken by the force I felt when I attacked him.
Well, don't think too much about it. The fact that we are alive now is already a happy thing for everyone.
My injuries haven't recovered yet, so I have to find a place to recuperate for two days before continuing on my journey. What do you think?"
Luffy thought about it and said, "Well, I think it's not bad to rest for two days. The other party will definitely search for us frantically in the next two days.
Let's find a place to hide first, so that they think we have escaped. Then the search intensity should be reduced, and we won't be so likely to encounter the enemy again."
Ye Li nodded and said, "Yeah, that's what I thought. After we find a place to hide for two days, it will be difficult for them to estimate our speed. By then, our pressure will definitely be much less."
