549 Escape (2/2)
Then, something happened that he never could have imagined. The two people who had originally looked as though they were about to fight to the death suddenly clashed their palms. A terrifying force sent both of them flying backward, like springs being pressed down and then released. The two of them sprung out like lightning.
Taking the lead, Yin Banshuang flew backward towards a Xingyi Sect elder who was in the group surrounding them. She did not dodge or try to evade, rudely shoulder charging her way through. Caught off guard, the elder could not react in time. It was as though a comet had struck his body, sending him flying hundreds of meters.
Yin Banshuang had not the slightest intention of stopping, directly accelerating and breaching the encirclement.
On the other side, almost at the same time, Mo Wen's body shined with golden light. His entire being became a golden man, like a golden Luohan. He also rudely and forcefully sent a Xingyi Sect elder flying out of the circle surrounding them. The force of the collision was no weaker than that caused by Yin Banshuang, a woman that had practiced the White Tiger Divine Power.
”Not good! Don't let them escape!” Zhang Lingxin had not expected that the two people who, before this, had seemed prepared to battle it out, would run at a moment's notice. There had been no indication at all of what they were planning to do. His expression changed drastically in an instant. He did not know the identity of the youth but just offending Yin Banshuang was difficult to resolve.
Regrettably, the two of them were solely focused on escaping, and their speed was not slow. In the blink of an eye, they had escaped by a few hundred meters. Right now, it was too late for the few Xingyi Sect elders, who had given chase a beat too slowly, to catch up with them.
”See you in the future, Xingyi Sect. I will remember this.” From afar, Yin Banshuang's somewhat chilly voice drifted over. Everyone knew that this woman held grudges.
The few Xingyi Sect elders immediately had headaches. Right now, this woman had no way to threaten the Xingyi Sect, but in the future, it was hard to say. Also, behind her, she had Five Beasts Sect. For the Xingyi Sect, it was an absolutely frightening hidden danger.
”What do we do?” The elder with the green birthmark looked at Zhang Lingxin with a sullen expression. Right now, if they chased the two of them again, it would most likely be very difficult to catch up. Yin Banshuang having such astonishing speed was one thing, but he never imagined that the youth's Qinggong was actually also so astonishing. It was even stronger than Yin Banshuang.
They had many people with them, so if it was an upfront battle and both sides were going head-on, they were confident that they could kill Yin Banshuang and the youth. But if the two of them only wanted to escape, they had no way of stopping them.
Human ancient martial art practitioners like them were unlike monstrous beasts. It was impossible for them to journey for a long time at the fourth level and chase their enemies. In such a harsh environment, the consumption of Inner Qi and physical fitness were many times more than on the outside. What was more was that there was hidden unpredictable danger, with powerful monstrous beasts lurking ready to ambush all around.
”We will immediately leave the Beast Lair, return to the sect and discuss this matter with the sect leader,” Zhang Lingxin said with a sullen expression.
If it was an ordinary ancient martial art practitioner, even if she had Golden Elixir realm cultivation, the Xingyi Sect elders would not need to be so concerned. But Yin Banshuang was different. She was someone who could one day stand at the pinnacle of the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension.
Mo Wen and Yin Banshuang had escaped separately. Only after flying a few kilometers did they regroup.
”Those shameless old blokes. Let them just wait and see. Sooner or later I will make them weep,” Yin Banshuang said coldly with a sullen expression.
Although they had not suffered any losses, they had escaped pathetically, causing her to be somewhat embarrassed and frustrated. If it wasn't for those old things shamelessly trying to involve them, they would not have been involved in so many things.
”If we went all out, it would not be impossible to kill them all,” Mo Wen said calmly with a smile. He had no particular feelings on the matter. Before this, when traversing barren mountains and dangerous lands, there had been times where he needed to run for his life.
”I am not foolish. In the Beast Lair, if we really fought them to the death, in the end, the ones who would suffer the greatest loss would most probably still be us.” Yin Banshuang coldly snorted. Even if they had killed the old things, they would most likely not have had it easy. They certainly would have been injured. In such a dangerous place as the Beast Lair, they would expend their Inner Qi and physical fitness more heavily and that was a dangerous situation.
Despite her frustrations, she did not need to fight those old geezers to the death.
Mo Wen smiled but did not say anything. His eyes slightly narrowed, unintentionally looking at a bush. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
”Yin Banshuang, you have always been known in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension for being wild. I would never have imagined that the next time I saw you would be pathetically running away.”
A somewhat playful voice came from the barren bush. Then, a dark shadow emerged from the thicket. The figure was slender, very tall but somewhat scrawny. It was a youth dressed in black with a steel sword in his hands. There was still blood dripping from the sword. On the corner of the youth's mouth hung a cynical smile. His eyes were bright, hiding a glint of defiance that was not obvious. A strong scent of blood emanated from his body, indirectly giving him a savage aura.
”Jiang Gujian!” Yin Banshuang's eyes narrowed and her facial expression turned cold. She looked somewhat coldly at the youth, her body naturally releasing a savage aura. She seemingly intended to fight him.
