Chapter 96: Chasing to Kill

Outside White Water City, Xiao Chen ran frantically towards the Savage Forest. He felt heartbroken as he looked at the incredibly weak Xiao Bai, who had fainted in his embrace.

The attack Xiao Bai executed was the most powerful attack in the Mysterious Nine Heavenly Revolution Transformation. It compressed the essence of the body nine times before releasing it out in an explosive manner. It caused a lot of damage to the body.

Once, when Xiao Chen wax training in Savage Forest, he ran into a Rank 4 Spirit Beast. At a very critical moment, Xiao Bai used this move.

It was then Xiao Chen realized the might of this technique, as well as the harm it does to the body. Thus, he scolded Xiao Bai severely, telling it to never use it. Who knew… it would actually use it today?

Raising his head, he saw Duanmu Qing, who turned into the Ice Phoenix, chasing tightly after him. From another two directions, a figure riding a sword and a blood cloud caught his attention.

Remembering the fatty’s introduction, Xiao Chen could guess the ident.i.ty of these two people. He smiled faintly and said to himself, “The three geniuses of Dongming Province are chasing after me; they think too highly of me.”

Xiao Chen executed the Azure Dragon Cloud Soaring Art to its extreme and leaped around in a zigzag fas.h.i.+on. From afar, it looked like the shadow of an azure dragon, soaring into the sky.

As long as he entered Savage Forest, Xiao Chen had the confidence to throw off his pursuers. He had trained within Savage Forest for more than a month and was extremely familiar with it.

“Boom!”

Just as Xiao Chen was about the enter the outer periphery of Savage Forest, Duanmu Qing suddenly transformed into a stream of flowing ice and landed in front of Xiao Chen.

The flowing ice moved as though it was water, changing its shape continuously. After a short period of time, it took human form. Duanmu Qing’s beauty appeared in front of Xiao Chen.

Her white hair fluttered all over the place and there was a fire lit in her eyes; she looked like a transcendental G.o.ddess. She spoke slowly in a frigid voice, “Hand over the map and I will not make things difficult for you.”

Xiao Chen did not reply and quickly used Lightning Evasion to run. If he had wanted to give it to her, he would have already done so at Liushang Pavilion.

Now that he was at the edge of Savage Forest, he had to make an attempt. Although Xiao Chen did not know what map this was, seeing how anxious she appeared, it was clear that it was not some ordinary map.

“Hau! Hua!”

The blood river in the sky descended to the ground. Hua Yunfei appeared behind Duanmu Qing.

“Chi!”

Chu Chaoyun, who was riding on the sword, landed rapidly and firmly on the ground. The sword underneath his feet morphed into a beam of light and flew into his forehead.

The three of them were in no rush to chase after Xiao Chen. Hua Yunfei looked at the two of them, revealing a trace of a demonic smile as he said, “My friends, since Miss Duanmu still has not caught this fellow yet, let’s do this.

“The three of us will work together to chase after him. Who ever who obtains the map will have to share it with the others. What do you think?”

There were no changes in Chu Chaoyun’s expression; his current emotions could not be seen through. He said, “I agree. Our three clans have turned up without invitation. Jiang Mingxun has been resisting the pressure we place on him, refusing to lead the way. He must be waiting for help.”

“I hear that the Ji Clan from Nanling Province is arriving soon. When they arrive, there will be another strong opponent. If we can s.n.a.t.c.h the map and rush ahead of the Jiang Clan, our three clans can disregard the Jiang Clan and work together to search.”

Duanmu Qing’s white hair slowly turned black again; the fiery look in her eyes seemed to have calmed down and became more welcoming. She pursed her red lips and responded, “Sure.”

After the three of them spoke, they immediately entered Savage Forest. Each of them using their own methods to chase in the direction Xiao Chen fled.

After the three of them left, Su Xiaoxiao appeared, carrying her zither. She said softly, “It really is the Azure Dragon Cloud Soaring Art. I did not see incorrectly the last time. The head of the four Holy Beast, the Azure Dragon, has reappeared in this world.”

After she said this, she did not enter Savage Forest. She looked to be deep in thought. After a long time, she quickly rushed towards White Water City.

Not long after Su Xiaoxiao left, the Jiang Clan’s first elder, Jiang Yunze, rushed over, leading a group of cultivators. This group of cultivators were all Martial Masters; there were 200 of them.

Jiang Yunze looked at Savage Forest in front of him and said, “Split yourselves into 20 groups, each group consisting of ten people. After you discover the target, take action immediately. Ten Martial Masters going against a single Inferior Grade Martial Disciple... there should be no danger of anything going wrong.”

After he said this, he took out a few portraits and handed them out, “Savage Forest is very large. It is possible that we might not find him by simply relying on our numbers. If you meet any cultivators that are training in the forest, hand this portrait to them and ask for their a.s.sistance in capturing him.”

In the outer perimeters of Savage Forest, Xiao Chen was rapidly das.h.i.+ng through the woods. His Spiritual Sense was extended out. The situation within 800 meters of himself was reflected in his mind.

The entire Savage Forest extended out for thousands of kilometers. Just the outer perimeter itself was more than a thousand hectares. Aside from Spirit Beasts, there were many hunters and cultivators who came to train. By hiding in Savage Forest, his pursuers would be searching for a needle in a haystack.

“Hu Chi!”

A group of gray wolves appeared in Xiao Chen’s Spiritual Sense. The gray wolves were Rank 3 Spirit Beasts that moved in a group. There would be at least 20 of them every time they appeared. Xiao Chen knew they were not easy to deal with and he prepared to go around them.

Xiao Chen withdrew his Spiritual Sense and used it to sweep through the area to either side. Just at that moment, there was the sound of footsteps. Xiao Chen trembled in his heart; he did not know who they were. He quickly hid in a bush to the side.
