the other side.
After Chu Xuan had traveled about ten miles outside the city, his speed suddenly slowed down.
A cold glint flashed in his eyes, and the next moment, he turned and entered the nearby forest.
A few breaths later, a figure hurriedly arrived from behind and stood in the spot where Chu Xuan had been standing.
He glanced at the road leading to the Xuan Yang Sect ahead, frowned slightly, sniffed the air, and then let out a cold laugh.
Then, he too disappeared into the dense forest.
After walking about a hundred meters, he stopped again, looking at the dense jungle around him, his expression slightly grim.
What about people?
It's gone!
The smell is gone too!
It was as if Chu Xuan had vanished into thin air.
"How is this possible? My Soul-Chasing Incense won't dissipate even from ten miles away, how could I possibly lose track of it?" the newcomer muttered to himself.
"Is Junior Brother Guo looking for me?"
At that moment, Chu Xuan's voice suddenly rang out from behind him.
Guo Chunlai was startled and quickly turned around, only to find that Chu Xuan was already standing behind him.
"Senior Brother Chu, you—you—" Guo Chunlai was so frightened that his face turned pale and his voice trembled.
Chu Xuan looked at the newcomer with a half-smile.
He recognized the man, Guo Chunlai, who was an underling of Qian Yao, the manager of the No. 5 Beast Garden. Not long after joining the family, he was recruited by the Qian family to become a retainer. Later, he entered the No. 5 Beast Garden and became Qian Yao's follower.
"Junior Brother Guo, you've just finished your mission and are heading back to the sect, right?" Chu Xuan asked with a smile.
"Ah, right! Senior Brother Chu also just finished a mission?"
Guo Chunlai realized what was happening and quickly put on a smiling face.
"Yes, what a coincidence!" Chu Xuan nodded, a bright smile spreading across his face. "Perfect timing, let's go back together, we can look out for each other on the way."
"Uh, okay."
Guo Chunlai forced a smile.
The two immediately set off together.
As they approached Lingxiao Mansion, Guo Chunlai suddenly spoke up, "Senior Brother Chu, I suddenly remembered that I have something to attend to at Lingxiao Mansion. We'll have to part ways here."
"Are you going to notify Qian Yao to intercept and kill me?" Chu Xuan asked calmly.
Guo Chunlai's scalp tingled, and he stared at Chu Xuan in shock, his heart almost leaping out of his chest.
He forced a smile and said, "What are you talking about, Senior Brother Chu? I don't understand what you mean."
Chu Xuan took out a small porcelain bottle, poured it out, and a tiny black beetle, no bigger than a mung bean, appeared in his palm, which he then enveloped with his inner energy.
Guo Chunlai's eyelids twitched, and he saw Chu Xuan unleash a burst of power, directly pulverizing the small black beetle into dust.
"escape!"
Guo Chunlai roared inwardly and, without any hesitation, turned and charged into the mountain forest to the side.
Boom!
Just a hundred feet away, Guo Chunlai felt a fierce gust of wind coming from behind him.
His expression changed drastically, and he quickly turned around and crossed his arms to block!
Click!
The sound of bones cracking rang out.
Guo Chunlai let out a shrill scream as his crossed arms twisted and broke instantly. Chu Xuan's palm strike, however, continued with undiminished force, slamming into Guo Chunlai's chest.
"puff----"
A mouthful of blood spurted out.
Guo Chunlai's body was instantly sent flying more than ten feet away, crashing heavily into a large tree that would take two people to hug.
A sharp cracking sound rang out as the tree was snapped in half by the impact.
Guo Chunlai spat out another mouthful of blood, mixed with fragments of various internal organs.
"Chu Xuan, how dare you intercept and kill your fellow disciple?!"
Guo Chunlai roared hoarsely.
Chu Xuan walked over unhurriedly, his voice indifferent: "Go ahead and scream! Even if you scream your lungs out, no one will come to save you!"
'
'
Guo Chunlai was so angry he wanted to curse, and he was even more shocked by the terrifying strength of Chu Xuan.
Like Chu Xuan, he was a genius from a small town who had just entered the sect this year, and he had already stepped into the Transformation Realm. The reason he called Chu Xuan "Senior Brother" was not because he thought Chu Xuan was stronger than him, but simply because Chu Xuan had a higher position in the Hundred Beast Garden!
But he never expected that Chu Xuan's strength would be so terrifying!
Both of them were just beginning to become prodigies, yet they couldn't even withstand a single move from Chu Xuan!
The difference is too big!
Guo Chunlai said with a grim expression, "Senior Brother Chu, we have no grudge against each other—"
Pa~!
Before he could finish speaking, Chu Xuan slapped Guo Chunlai across the face, sending him flying more than ten meters to the side before he landed tumbling on the ground.
Chu Xuan sneered, "Since we have no grudge against each other, why are you helping Qian Yao to harm me? Do you really think I don't know that you've been following me all this time?"
"I don't----"
Blood continued to gush from Guo Chunlai's mouth, yet he still tried to justify himself.
Chu Xuan, however, was too lazy to listen to his nonsense and said coldly, "I ask, you answer! Otherwise, you die!"
Guo Chunlai's face was grim, and he remained silent.
Chu Xuan didn't care and said directly, "Tell me, who sent you to follow me? Qian Yao? Zhao Qianyang? Or did they team up?"
Guo Chunlai gritted his teeth and said, "I don't know what you're talking about!"
laugh!
A flash of cold light appeared as Chu Xuan drew his longsword, which passed by Guo Chunlai like lightning.
The next moment, an arm flew into the sky.
"ah----"
Guo Chunlai let out a pig-like scream, writhing on the ground in pain.
Chu Xuan's voice was calm, revealing no trace of joy or anger: "As fellow disciples, I didn't want to push things to the extreme! I just wanted to stay in the Hundred Beast Garden and cultivate properly, but why do you always have to force me?"
"Chu Xuan, you will die a horrible death!" Guo Chunlai cursed angrily.
"So, I have to live well!"
Chu Xuan grinned. "Let's continue with the previous question! You can remain silent or make up stories, I don't care."
As he spoke, he looked at Guo Chunlai's other arm with ill intent.
I said—
Guo Chunlai shuddered in fright, his face deathly pale, and said, "I'll tell you! Qian Yao told me to follow you and to tell Zhao Qianyang where you are!"
Chu Xuan was somewhat surprised.
He had only been guessing before.
Ever since he realized that the person spying on him came from Beast Garden No. 5, he had been wondering how Qian Yao would deal with him.
After thinking for a long time, the only thing he could think of was finding Zhao Qianyang, who had a grudge against him.
After all, he and Qian Yao had no deep-seated hatred. Even if Qian Yao held a grudge because he was refused a contribution point, it wouldn't warrant the Qian family behind him taking action.
I never expected that these two would actually collude together!
"So, Zhao Qianyang is already prepared to ambush me on the way?" Chu Xuan asked.
Guo Chunlai remained silent, then finally nodded.
"One last question. How did you track me down, with that little bug from earlier?" Chu Xuan asked.
He remembered clearly that someone had been following him on the way to Gaoliu City. But after entering Gaoliu City, the person following him disappeared.
After leaving Gaoliu City, the other party reappeared.
In other words, even if the other party did not enter the city, they had a clear grasp of his whereabouts.
Chu Xuan was very curious about how the other party had managed to do it using that little bug.
"Do I even have a chance to live?"
Guo Chunlai asked.
"No!" Chu Xuan said directly.
"Then why should I answer you?" Guo Chunlai sneered.
"Because I can give you a quick death! Of course, you can also choose to die an unpleasant death! I'm relatively easy to talk to," Chu Xuan said calmly.
Guo Chunlai's face twitched, then he gritted his teeth and said, "My family is known for its tracking skills. I've been interested in these things since I was a child."
The beetle you killed earlier was an insect I bred. It emits a special scent that won't dissipate even from ten miles away; it's meant to attract mates, and we humans can't smell it at all. But I have a naturally extraordinary sense of smell, so I can detect that scent.
"Then I'm relieved!"
Chu Xuan nodded. "Does Junior Brother Guo have any last words?"
"I----"
Guo Chunlai opened his mouth.
The moment he opened his mouth, Chu Xuan stomped on his head and crushed it.
Then he kicked him into a pit, and with a slap, a large amount of soil fell, completely covering Guo Chunlai's body.
Chu Xuan clapped his hands, cleaning up the surrounding traces.
I always keep my word!
He probably didn't feel any pain, right?
Then, Chu Xuan's gaze turned cold. It was time to remove Zhao Qianyang, this thorn in his side.
When he accepted the mission from Tong Hao, he knew that the other party wouldn't let this opportunity slip by.
For Chu Xuan, this was also an opportunity.
Rather than letting Zhao Qianyang lurk in the shadows and haunt us, it's better to create an opportunity to completely eliminate this threat.
He quickly took out a set of night clothes from his bag and changed into them.
Now it's his turn to be the hunter!
On a small road twenty miles away from Xuan Yang Sect.
Zhao Qianyang sat cross-legged on a large rock, with a large spear stuck in the mud next to him.
His right eye was tightly closed, and his blind left eye was covered by a black eye patch, which made his already unfriendly face even more ferocious.
Dressed like that, even if someone passes by, they will be frightened and keep their distance, taking a detour!
"not good!"
Zhao Qianyang suddenly opened his eyes, his eyelids twitching wildly, feeling a strong sense of crisis!
Almost instinctively, he reached out to grab the spear beside him!
Boom!
-
Suddenly, a pale golden blade of energy, more than ten meters long, attacked from behind, carrying a sharp whistling sound that seemed to tear the heavens and earth apart, aiming to cleave him in two!
Before the blade's aura even arrived, the terrifying pressure, accompanied by a strong wind, swept in like a tsunami.
"罡劲————"
Zhao Qianyang was both shocked and furious. He quickly withdrew his hand, and a powerful force burst forth, instantly forming a protective shield around his body!
Almost simultaneously, the chilling blade energy slashed down, striking Zhao Qianyang's protective aura.
Bang~!
A deafening roar echoed throughout the entire mountain forest.
The shockwaves generated by the collision of the qi were like a tsunami, sweeping towards the surrounding trees.
The vegetation within a radius of three zhang was completely reduced to dust by this impact.
"Sizzle s ...————"
Zhao Qianyang's protective aura emitted a sickeningly loud creaking sound, and was covered with dense, spiderweb-like cracks.
"not good----"
Zhao Qianyang's expression changed drastically.
Everyone is at the Gang Jin level, but my protective Gang Qi is actually inferior to the opponent's!
"Bang!!"
The moment Zhao Qianyang had that thought, his protective aura shattered.
The pale golden blade cleaved towards Zhao Qianyang's crown with unstoppable force.
"when!"
A loud clang of metal clashing rang out.
At the critical moment, Zhao Qianyang finally grabbed the spear and used it to shield himself.
With a loud bang, the boulder more than ten feet high beneath Zhao Qianyang's feet was the first to be shattered into dust. Although Zhao Qianyang blocked the attack, his body was slammed into the ground a foot deep, his arms trembled violently, and blood seeped from his tiger's mouth.
