When Lin Bai, Xu Zhong and Zhou He left the border of Kezhou and flew toward the hinterland of Kezhou, he suddenly felt a breath locking them from behind!
The aura that locked onto Lin Bai was a warrior at the pinnacle of Taoism.
Lin Bai looked back and saw a spirit boat crushing the clouds and breaking through the sky and earth, like a giant beast flying out of the void, crashing towards their direction.
There were densely packed warriors standing on it, and everyone's face was filled with a lingering haze, as if a disaster was imminent.
On the spirit boat, there was a flag fluttering in the cold wind, with five big characters written on it: "Xiuling City Li Family".
"How did they find our location? And they caught up so quickly." Lin Bai couldn't help being stunned, and when he looked at the spirit boat, his eyes darkened.
Immediately, Lin Bai stepped on the flying sword, led Xu Zhong and Zhou He and flew away, quickly heading towards the horizon.
The sword control technique reached its peak, turning into a stream of light and disappearing in front of the spirit boat.
"Check whether you have been manipulated by the Li family. How did they lock our direction?" Lin Bai stepped on the flying sword and said to Zhou He and Xu Zhong.
"Nothing was done to us!" Xu Zhong shook his head and said immediately.
"Are you so sure?" Lin Bai was stunned for a moment, a little surprised.
Xu Zhong gave a wry smile: "We are members of the Zhaoxing Division's spy team. What we are best at is leaving tracking and eavesdropping marks on warriors."
"This is our specialty. I'm afraid no one in Chu State is as familiar with this technique as us. That's why I can be so sure that they didn't leave a mark on us!"
Lin Bai suddenly realized that Xu Zhong and Zhou He were indeed experts in tracking, eavesdropping, and spying on military intelligence. They had both been carefully trained by the Zhaoxing Division, and they were better at these methods than the Li family.
If the Li family left tracking methods on them, they would definitely be able to discover it immediately.
"That's strange. How could they lock our position?" Lin Bai was stunned for a moment, then turned the sword's head, changed its direction, and sped away.
Half an hour later, when Lin Baike's flying sword slowed down, the Li family's spirit boat appeared behind him again.
Lin Bai changed his direction again and flew away in another direction.
But when Lin Baijian's flying sword slowed down, the Li family's spirit boat appeared behind him again.
After several experiments back and forth, Lin Bai finally determined one thing...that is, the Li family's spirit boat can lock their position!
If it was really what Lin Bai suspected, it would be troublesome.
Xu Zhong kept saying that they were experts in tracking and it was impossible for them to be traced by the Li family.
So how did the Li family lock their position?
There must be a reason for this.
After thinking about it, Lin Bai felt that there was only one possibility, either the Li family had left a mark on them that was not easily noticed by others, or someone was tipping them off!
Lin Bai looked back at Xu Zhong and Zhou He. Both of them were seriously injured. After escaping from Xiuling City, Lin Bai did not give them enough time to heal their injuries.
The two people, who had lost a lot of energy, blood and cultivation, looked as pale as a ball of mud.
Xu Zhong sat weakly on the flying sword, his face was in a daze, his eyes were broken, as if he would die at any moment.
Although Zhou He was also pale and weak, his eyes were bright and alert, and he was always looking around vigilantly, like a hunting leopard.
When Lin Bai looked at him, he noticed Lin Bai's gaze immediately. He raised his head and smiled bitterly at Lin Bai, looking quite helpless.
"Have they been following us?" Xu Zhong raised his pale and bloodless face and looked back at Yunkong behind him. The magic eye technique he practiced was not advanced, so he couldn't see as far away as Lin Bai.
He felt as if no one was following them.
"Always follow!" Lin Bai replied.
"Impossible! We escaped from Xiuling City quietly, and there were no tracking marks on us. How did they identify our location?" Xu Zhong also had the same question in his mind.
"This is also something I really want to know. You are experts in this field, what do you think?" Lin Bai looked at Xu Zhong with a smile and asked.
"It's very simple! Either they have left trace marks on us that are not easy to be found, or someone is tipping us off!" Xu Zhong's view was surprisingly consistent with Lin Bai's.
Xu Zhong looked at Lin Bai, then at Zhou He beside him, his eyes gradually darkened.
"Brother Xu Zhong, what do you mean by looking at me?" Zhou He asked in shock.
"Brother Lin Bai risked his life to rescue us from Xiuling City. Naturally, he cannot be a believer of the Blood God Cult. Then this spy can only appear between you and me." Xu Zhong stared at Zhou He and said.
"Zhou He, I really didn't expect that you are also a believer of the Blood God Sect! It's a waste of my trust in you."
"Ever since we were discovered by the Blood God Cult in Wu'en City, I have been thinking about what went wrong and how the Blood God Cult discovered us?"
"Then we fled to Xiuling City. How could the Li family, who had taken good care of us, turn their backs and become merciless overnight!"
"All of this makes me puzzled!"
"Now I have figured it out...it turns out there is a spy!"
Xu Zhong gritted his teeth, stared at Zhou He, and said coldly.
"Xu Zhong, don't talk nonsense!" Zhou He was so angry that he yelled at Xu Zhong: "I have been a member of the Zhaoxing Division longer than you, how could I be a spy of the Blood God Sect!"
"We were discovered in Wu'en City and exposed in Xiuling City. It's only because of your poor leadership as the captain. How can you put all the blame on me!"
Zhou He said angrily.
"Explanations are useless! People may not mean what they say, but memory cannot lie!" Xu Zhong said lightly: "Do you dare to let Brother Lin Bai look through your memory?"
"Just like Jiang Lie!"
Zhou He said angrily: "Huh, Brother Lin Bai said... that once his secret technique is used, it will cause dementia at the least, and death immediately at the worst. I still have to serve the Chu State with my life, and I must not die here.
here!"
"Hahaha, you don't dare anymore, do you?" Xu Zhong smiled coldly and said, "I dare!"
Zhou He looked at Xu Zhong dumbfounded.
Xu Zhong said: "Brother Lin Bai, please use your secret method to check my memory. After you read my memory, you will naturally know everything we know in Wuen City!"
"At that time, please ask Brother Lin Bai to take this news to Qinglian City and inform His Highness King Chen. This matter is crucial to the destruction of the Blood God Religion this time!"
"If I unfortunately die in Brother Lin Bai's secret method, just to be sure... no matter whether Zhou He is a follower of the Blood God Religion or not, I will kill him directly!"
"In this way, the Blood God Sect will think that no one knows about this matter."
Xu Zhong said as if he were dead.
Zhou He's eyes widened and he looked at Xu Zhong in disbelief. He didn't expect that Xu Zhong had already put life and death aside.
