Chapter 626: Fight Against the Entire World
Translator: TransnEditor: Transn
It was really shocking that two famous mature experts at the Knowing Destiny State could not kill a young cultivator who just entered the Knowing Destiny State. They were unable to even stall him for short time.
Leaning against a tree, Luo Kedi sat on the ground. He looked pale, bloody and weak. An imperial physician and a priest who came from the West-Hill Divine Palace were nervously treating him.
At this time, his throat bone was fractured and he unable to see clearly as he had lost too much blood. He seemed to see another person when he saw Ning Que escaping over the slumping wall.
The Great Divine Priest of Judgment, Ye Hongyu.
Luo Kedi had been stronger than Ye Hongyu before last spring. During those years, he never dared to do anything to her, even to fight against her face to face, even though he wanted her so badly that he even wanted to insult and torture her. That was because he knew that if they fought to the death, the one killed would be him in the end.
Luo Kedi always believed that Ye Hongyu was the only one who could be so powerful regardless of realms, and never figured out how she was so terrifying. Until today, after he fought against Ning Que, he finally knew that they were the same kind of people. The Hierarch Lord thought Ning Que was invincible in the same realm, and he was right.
Looking at the empty house, Luo Kedi painfully coughed which tore the wound on his neck and revealed some white bones. As the imperial physician and the priest saw this, they were terrified and sped up the treatments.
Luo Kedi bitterly thought, ”Even if Ning Que can be invincible at the same realm, as long as he meets an expert at the Peak of the Knowing destiny State, he will be killed. Since the Divine Priest of Judgment is in the Wilderness, where can you hide the Daughter of Yama?”
Standing on the roof of the small temple opposite the street, Master Qi Mei looked around and found Chaoyang City was so peaceful. There was no trace of Ning Que and the Daughter of Yama.
His face was cut by the Jing Fu and his skin was torn. The flesh gaped open which was extremely ferocious but somehow compassionate.
Looking at the sky and confirming the clouds didn't move at all, Master Qi Mei realized Ning Que and the Daughter of Yama were still inside the city.
”I can't keep you by myself, but what about the thousands of people in the city?”
The bell of White Tower Temple rang and spread over Chaoyang City which was more hurried than before as if it urged something.
As the sounds spread, all the temples in the city began to ring their bells. Little monks in robes pushed the hammers with difficulty while old monks tolled out of breath with the hammer in their hands. Then, all the bells and drums in the Yuelun Kingdom began to ring as well as the drums of the night's watchmen.
All kinds of sounds rang in the city. People got out of their house and discussed in the street. When they were aware of the reason from the Village Head and the monks, they could not help be shocked at first, and then they were confused about what they should do.
Ning Que was moving fast in the remote alleys with Sangsang on his back. He had no time to wipe out the sweat on his forehead and the blood on his lips. The clear or heavy bells were like the summons to Death, drilling into his head from his ears, weighing his steps but never stopping him.
Running with Sangsang on his back was too conspicuous. He was unable to find a place to hide without been seen since too many eyes were on the streets. Besides, it was not a good idea to run inside the city since a powerhouse was coming soon.
The most important thing was that he had to take the opportunity to escape out of the city before the people noticed them and began to stop them.
He had been hiding in the city for the entire winter and already made a perfect plan to escape.
The monk called Qi Mei from the Xuankong Temple would not chase him if he didn't want to be the target of the Primordial Thirteen Arrows, even though he was powerful and fast enough. If he could get rid of the monk and run out of the city, when he found the Big Black Horse, few men would be able to catch up to them.
He tried to run so hard that his feet stepped on the stone ground with heavy sounds. His speed was so fast that his black robe flew like a flag in the wind, dripping with his sweat.
The Big Black Horse and the carriage were hidden in the northern mountain. However, in his plan, he was going to take the western gates of the city instead of the northern ones. When he was able to see the gates, he felt a little relieved.
However, at this moment, he suddenly felt a formidable aura outside the western gates which was too dangerous for them.
He heavily stamped his right foot, cracking his leather boot and the stone ground and then he forced to stop his body, shocking Sangsang on his back.
Ning Que felt frustrated like anyone else when they faced a new and tough situation as they were about to get out of Chaoyang City.
While the others may take a second to rethink whether they should change to another way, Ning Que didn't. He turned around without thought or hesitation and ran toward the northern gates.
Chaoyang City was a city without walls or real gates. Instead, there were only some non-temporary official buildings which were considered as the gates.
Today, all the bells and drums in the city rang and the buildings were locked. The people and beggars outside the city were driven like sheep into the city by the soldiers with weapons.
By this time, there were only dozens of ascetic monks in the field outside Chaoyang City. If someone was going out, everyone would notice him.
