72. Crisis under the night

Late at night, the quiet environment seemed a little gloomy.

Ye Xuan was not in a hurry to rush. At this moment, it was not too far away from Guangyuan City. Moreover, as a big city, Guangyuan City would close the city gate in the evening and would not open the city gate until dawn the next day. Ye Xuan knew that even if he arrived at Guangyuan City, he could not enter the city, so he chose to stay in the wild for a while and enter the city tomorrow. Moreover, he had already chosen the opportunity to enter the city - choosing the evening with relatively few traffic.

The closer he got to Yuanding Mountain, the more Ye Xuan felt the blood in his body boiling. He knew that he was not far from the Sumeru Ring.

This will be the first step to his re-emergence.

Although his strength has improved rapidly at this stage due to some reasons, it is enough to make up for this factor when he arrived at Yuanding Mountain nearly three months earlier than expected. At this point, Ye Xuan can only hope that Zi Yan can get the alchemy materials he wants, otherwise he can only let Zi Yan find a way to get him a sword fetal resting pill.

Although he wanted more the body of Taoist infant, if he had no choice, he could only be a sword cultivator.

Ye Xuan did not meditate and regulate his breathing, but lay on the grass and sleeped.

Others need to meditate for a long time to absorb spiritual energy to improve their own strength, but all this is not needed for Ye Xuan. With Dragon Soul and Tamamota, even if he does not meditate, the spiritual energy will still pour into his body at a fixed speed to help him improve his body. In the current situation, Ye Xuan wishes that his cultivation will be improved a little slower, so how could he continue to meditate?

Tamamo, who was curled up on Ye Xuan's stomach, suddenly shook his ears a few times, and then it quickly opened its eyes and raised its head to look southwest of the road.

This is an official road. Guangyuan City regularly sends soldiers to patrol, so the public security is very good. The northeast end of the road is the direction of Guangyuan City, and the southwest is a three-fork intersection, leading to the other three places respectively.

As the most important city in Shengguang Province, Guangyuan City naturally has a very large flow of people, including many people who travel in the middle of the night.

But just as Tamamo looked up alertly, Ye Xuan, who had been sleeping, suddenly opened his eyes and sat up suddenly.

His sensitive reaction was only ten seconds slower than Tamamo's. This is not to say how excellent Ye Xuan's hearing is, but the other party's movement speed was too fast. It was only a dozen seconds before and after, he had already advanced the minimum distance of hundreds of meters.

Not far away, a fog of dust finally came from the night, and the sound of a galloping horse roaring.

Ye Xuan took off his clothes and wrapped Tamamo around to prevent unnecessary troubles that might occur.

Under the moonlight, Tamamota emits a faint soft silver light, a bit like the light of snow jade, so it is given the name of the Snow Jade Golden Retriever Fox. Of course, when there is sunshine, the golden retrievers on the Snow Jade Golden Retriever Fox will also emit a dazzling luster, just like burning golden flames, so this is the real headache for Ye Xuan.

However, even without moonlight or sunshine, the beautiful fur on the snow jade golden fox will still make it a focus.

The galloping horse soon appeared in front of Ye Xuan.

This is a cavalry team with twelve people. The person leading the team was actually a woman, but there were three riders next to her, and it was obvious that this woman was the core of the cavalry team. Before they got close, Ye Xuan had already smelled a strong smell of blood. Judging from the blood on all of their clothes, the other party should have encountered some attack and was now at the level of escape.

"Unfortunate!" Ye Xuan cursed, almost without thinking. Then he picked up Tamamo with one hand, picked up Qingfeng Sword with the other, and ran quickly towards the direction of Guangyuan Castle.

Although he didn't know what the other party had encountered, Ye Xuan was also not interested in knowing. The only thing he knew was that if their opponent designed a perfect ambush, it would be impossible for these people to escape, so there would inevitably be others chasing them, or there might be some traps waiting for them. No matter what kind of tricks their enemies prepared, Ye Xuan knew that if he continued to stay here, his situation would definitely be very dangerous.

Therefore, he ran away immediately without hesitation.

The only destination for this team to advance is Guangyuan City. Since they dare to run in this direction, it means that they are absolutely safe in Guangyuan City. This is also the reason why Ye Xuan will run towards Guangyuan City instead of in other directions.

When it comes to this kind of combat intuition and experience, how can ordinary people be richer than Ye Xuan?

"Miss, there seems to be someone in front..." A rider following the woman suddenly spoke, "He ran towards Hirohara Castle."

"Is it the enemy's reconnaissance?" The woman's voice had a unique ethereality.

"I don't know." The rider shook his head, obviously unable to confirm, "He should not be strong, should he take it down?"

"Take it!" Without any hesitation, the woman issued an order in a deep voice.

During the whole process, the cavalry team was moving forward quickly and did not pause because Ye Xuan suddenly ran forward. From this point of view, the cavalry team was obviously very confident about its own strength. Perhaps this was also the reason why they could successfully break through the ambush circle and break out.

After hearing the instructions given by the woman, the rider who had spoken before suddenly closed his legs and kicked the horse's belly, allowing the horse under his crotch to sprint forward quickly, and suddenly he got out of the team. He was holding a long-handled machete in his right hand. This long weapon seemed to be attacking the enemy under the acceleration of the horse's sprint, but soldiers who were usually trained regularly would not use this weapon.

Therefore, from this point of view, this team is not a soldier, but a team of a certain family.

This rider who rushed forward was the strongest in the entire team, and he was also the best at cavalry warfare. Although his strength was only in the second level of the innate realm, as long as he was given enough charge acceleration, even the third and fourth level masters would not dare to resist his attack head-on. And when he rode a horse to charge, the entire cavalry team could already predict the result. If the other person was really an enemy, then the outcome would be absolutely certain.

Out of this kind of confidence and trust in strength, no one else in this team came out to catch up with the support. They still maintained a dense formation and ran on the official road.

When Ye Xuan found out that the other party was still a bit far apart, but no matter how hard he ran, he would never be able to pass the horse quickly.

So when he ran forward for hundreds of meters, he finally heard the sound of horse hooves approaching. His strength had not reached the innate realm, so he was unable to use the steps he taught Qiao Yunfei, so Ye Xuan knew that he would be surpassed by the other party sooner or later. What he was thinking about at the beginning was that he and the other party had no holiday, and the other party would only surpass him and continue to run towards Guangyuan City. However, the current situation seemed to be a little beyond his expectations.

"Thief, where can I run!" The rider riding on the horse rushed over and shouted.

Hearing the other party's shouts, Ye Xuan knew what the problem was: when he was so sensitive, he suddenly emerged and ran towards Guangyuan City. It's no wonder that the other party regarded himself as an enemy.

However, Ye Xuan has no intention of fighting with the other party at the moment. Although he knew that the person who was chasing him was not very strong, there were two strong men in the opponent's team who had reached the fifth level of the innate realm. These two people were the ones that really shocked Ye Xuan. If it weren't for these two people, even if the rider chased him, Ye Xuan would not have any scruples. He could always run away if he couldn't fight.

But now, with these two masters here, it is obviously impossible to escape.

"I, I have no money." Therefore, when he heard the rider's shouting, Ye Xuan immediately stopped and stopped running forward.

Hearing Ye Xuan's words, the rider chasing Ye Xuan was stunned at first, then slowed down slightly, but his hands were still alert. He felt a little angry that Ye Xuan treated him and others as robbers, but when he thought about it carefully, the smell of blood on his body was so heavy and he had just broken out, and the murderous aura on his body must be obvious, so it was natural to be regarded as robbers, but he was not sure if the other party had any tricks hidden, so he remained vigilant.

Seeing the other party's vigilance but without intention of killing him, Ye Xuan finally quietly put away the tightly clasped silver needle. If the other party showed murderous intent, even if he couldn't escape, Ye Xuan would never sit still and wait for death, because this was not his style.

However, from the other party's point of view, Ye Xuan had a little favorable impression of this team that was not arbitrary.

"Who are you?" The rider turned around and looked at the team. It was still a bit far away, so he asked.

He must determine whether the little devil in front of him is an enemy before the team arrives.

"I, I just want to go to Guangyuan City. But it's too late now and I can't enter the city, so I can only sleep here for one night and only enter the city tomorrow." Ye Xuan quickly explained. In this situation that was completely in panic for this team, showing off his cleverness would only let the other party solve himself with a knife. Ye Xuan was not that stupid.

The rider looked up and down at Ye Xuan, obviously judging the trueness of Ye Xuan's words. However, he still maintained a certain distance. Although the little ghost in front of him was only the first-level level, if the distance was too close and the opponent suddenly rose up, he would definitely not have a good ending if he lacked enough space to exercise on the horse.

"Be careful!" But just as the rider was about to speak, Ye Xuan suddenly shouted.

When he heard this reminder, the rider knew the critical situation, and he immediately abandoned the horse and fled without hesitation. He jumped and rushed towards Ye Xuan. But no matter how quick his reaction was, he did not have the speed of the opponent's attack. The dense arrows completely shot him into an arrow pig in an instant, and even the white horse under his crotch did not escape this bad luck.
