C1 (1/2)

Earth, A City, evening.

Hong Ling continuously moved his body between the buildings, and in a few jumps, he was already very far away.

Behind the youth, dozens of figures quickly leapt forward like dark ghosts. They were covered by a black cloak, and their tyrannical auras continuously circulated, exuding a strong killing intent.

With a ”waa” sound, the youth quickly covered the corner of his mouth. Without even looking at the blood that was emitting black smoke from him, he forcefully swallowed the smell of blood in his throat and quickly rushed forward like a lightning bolt.

A sharp piercing sound came from behind him. The youth then rolled away, dodging a few concealed weapons. A dark green light shone from the tip of the hidden weapon. Hong Ling felt a chill in his heart.

”Faster, a little bit faster, you can definitely do it. You won't die, as long as you are a little bit faster, you definitely won't die!” Senior Sister, Senior Sister, she's still waiting for me. She said that she would definitely wait for me! ”

As the youth looked at the mountain range ahead, a trace of luck flashed in his heart. He knew that if he persevered a little longer, he would be able to leave A City. From then on, he would be able to rely on the sea and the fish to swim. The sky was high and the birds could fly.

The black-clothed people behind him became increasingly anxious. This boy, once he entered the mountain range, if they wanted to find him again, it would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.

”Leader, what should we do? This brat's cultivation is too tyrannical. Even if he's poisoned, he's not weak at all. We've all been killed by him over a dozen brothers in a row!”

The masked man did not speak. With a wave of his hand, a black dagger was ruthlessly flung out. With a ”chi” sound, the dagger pierced the youth's calf.

Hong Ling was moving his body very quickly, but he didn't expect his right leg to feel such pain. He staggered, and almost fell to the ground.

The youth gritted his teeth and quickly stabilized his staggering body. He started to run again. The Qi in his body was circulating rapidly, and even his meridians began to ache.

Hong Ling knew that he no longer had any other way out.

In front of the youth was a huge chasm. It was another tall building, but it was too far away from the one that Hong Ling was currently in.

It was almost a distance of ten zhang. If the youth wasn't poisoned and injured, he would definitely be able to jump over it. But at this moment, this distance seemed to have become a life threatening abyss.

”Let's go all out!” The youth gritted his teeth as the veins on his face bulged, and the qi flow in his body reached its peak.

Hong Ling knew that one of his meridians had snapped when he was forcefully channeling his energy. The youth did not dare to stay any longer, and leaped high into the sky, like a swan soaring into the sky, as he flew towards the tall building in front of him.

With a wail, he was in the air and spat out another mouthful of blood, but Hong Ling did not dare to be distracted, as his eyes were filled with seriousness.

The rooftop in front of him grew closer and closer. The youth even saw the mottled fence and was overjoyed. He knew he had made the right gamble. With his current falling speed, he would definitely be able to safely land on top of the building.

However, at this time, a figure suddenly appeared on the opposite balcony.

She had an elegant face, a beautiful figure, and an otherworldly temperament. In her hand was the longsword that the youth had bestowed upon her.

”Senior sister, senior sister is actually on top of that building!”

Hong Ling's heart was overjoyed. Even though he did not know why his Senior Sister was here, since she was brought along the sword he had given her, then she must have come to protect him when he returned safely!

”When I return from my recovery, it will be the day of your death!”

He happily landed on the rooftop. Looking at the smiling girl, his heart was filled with a never before seen happiness. The girl quickly ran over to support him with an expression of heartache.

”Youngest junior brother, have you gotten the item?”

Seeing her concerned expression, Hong Ling forced himself to calm down and nodded his head. He took out a small jade box from his pocket and shook it.

”Senior Sister, we've got it! It's the blood of the ancestor that Lilisse left in Lou Lan's hands!”

Hong Ling quickly said. Since the situation was urgent, he could only hope to return with her as soon as possible.

”Good, very good! You are worthy of being my good junior!” The young lady smiled slightly as a flowing light flashed in her hands.

Pfft!

Hong Ling's originally smiling face instantly changed. He felt as if something quickly bit into his chest, and an ice-cold sharp thing slowly slipped into his beating heart.

The youth lowered his head and saw the young girl holding the sword hilt with a snow-white arm. He had a look of disbelief on his face.

Pa! The jade box in his hand fell to the ground. The young girl kicked at it, causing it to slip away for a long distance.

A drop of fresh, red blood fell onto the skin on the girl's hands that were like autumn's frost.

”Senior Sister, why are you doing this? Did I, did I do wrong... ”What?”

The young girl lowered her head and looked at the blood on her hand with disgust. She let go of the sword and threw the blood on the young man's face. She then turned around, not looking at his figure.

Hong Ling struggled to pull the sword out of his body bit by bit as he watched his beloved senior sister walk towards the jade box that was not far away. He saw her return a smile.

”The fault lies in that you do not know how to care for the fairer sex. You only know how to practice the Jiuzhuan Profound Technique left behind by your master!”

”The mistake is that you don't have any money. Besides your martial arts, you have nothing to show for it!”

”The fault lies in the fact that you don't know that I have hated you from the very beginning!”

”Ever since this old man adopted you, he has always looked down on me!”
