At this moment, noisy footsteps came from the distant woods, and it seemed that many people were coming.
Qin Shaoyou was shocked, immediately put away his sadness, grabbed the bag and ran to another part of the woods.
Shortly after he left, five people rushed out from the woods one after another.
Four men and one woman, all holding long swords, surrounded by auras, and dressed in hunting clothes, were five immortal cultivators!
Judging from their clothing styles, they look exactly like the mysterious young men.
The leader of the five people is the beautiful woman named Xu Xinyi.
Her eyes are full of autumn water, her face is like gelatin, and her black hair is so beautiful that if a mortal sees her, she will sigh that she is a fairy descending to earth.
Although Xu Xinyi looks pretty, she is by no means a weakling. There is a fierce look between her eyebrows.
"Senior Sister Xu, this traitor is dead!"
"But I didn't see the treasure!"
"Even his storage bag is missing!"
A male disciple from the same sect turned around and said to her after examining what was left on the boulder.
Xu Xinyi's almond-shaped eyes slowly swept around, and finally stopped in the direction where Qin Shaoyou disappeared.
"The soul lamps of Xu Xiu and the others have been extinguished, and the traitor Jiang Feng has also returned to the ruins..."
"Only a thousand miles south of here is the territory of Xiaonan Kingdom. If things really fall into their hands, it will be troublesome!"
The four people looked at each other, and one of them asked:
"Senior Sister Xu, what should we do?"
Xu Xinyi thought for a moment and then came up with a plan.
"You work in pairs and continue tracking in the east-west direction!"
"I will go south alone to investigate. Regardless of whether there is any result, we will meet in Yunzhou City one day later!"
"Sister, no!"
One of them said with some concern:
"Although most of the Yuan Ling Sect are alchemists, this place is too close to their territory after all. If we have another dispute with them..."
"I'm afraid it won't be easy to explain to the sect..."
Xu Xinyi immediately darkened her face and snorted coldly:
"If the things really get into the hands of Yuan Lingzong, will it be easier to explain?"
"Don't talk nonsense, you can go back if you're afraid of death!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she disappeared instantly.
The other four people didn't have much to say when they saw this, so they left here separately according to Xu Xinyi's wishes.
Somewhere in the forest, Qin Shaoyou was galloping north with all his strength.
After opening the Jade Gate, his senses were extremely sensitive, and he could easily avoid obstacles along the way even if he was running fast.
He chose the north because it was the only direction he could confirm was safe.
The five people he admired came from the southeast. If he continued south to Yuan Ling Sect, he would probably be discovered by these five people before he had gone far.
Besides, he didn't know the specific location of Yuan Lingzong. Even if he went south, he would be like a headless fly.
Qin Shaoyou didn't dare to ask for help, so he could only wait for these five people to leave before continuing to search.
"Hahaha, you can't find anything even if you wear iron shoes, but it takes no effort at all to get there!"
A dark shadow flashed in the dense forest and appeared in front of Qin Shaoyou in the blink of an eye. The latter was shocked and immediately stopped.
"Who are you?!"
Qin Shaoyou was shocked when he first saw this person.
Such a cultivating woman must have a good appearance, but he only lost consciousness for a moment and woke up in an instant.
A proud smile appeared on Xu Xinyi's face. She put one hand behind her back and a white long sword appeared in the other hand.
"You took something you shouldn't have. If you hand it over, maybe I can let you live."
"Yeah?"
Qin Shaoyou would not believe such nonsense.
There were obviously five people chasing me just now, but now there is only one!
He is not stupid, I am afraid that this woman has pushed away the others and wants to monopolize the jade pendant in his hand!
This place is not far from the waterfall. It seems that this woman said this because she didn't want to make too much noise.
Qin Shaoyou's brain was spinning rapidly, thinking about how to solve the current crisis.
Hand something over?
What's the difference between that and seeking death?
What to do?
"Why, does this matter need to be considered for so long?"
Xu Xinyi was a little impatient, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in the corner of her eyes.
"If you want something from me, it depends on whether you can catch up with me!"
Qin Shaoyou decided to take a gamble.
As soon as he finished speaking, he ran away and continued to flee north.
Xu Xinyi smiled coldly, but was in no hurry to follow her immediately.
"This guy is quite interesting!"
"It's okay, stay farther away, and you won't have to be discovered by a few of them!"
"Then let me see what kind of burial place you chose for yourself!"
To her, Qin Shaoyou's actions were just a desperate struggle.
Anyone who knows this must not be left alive!
Thinking of this, Xu Xinyi put away her sword and chased after him.
Finding that the woman there was just following him from a distance, Qin Shaoyou secretly broke into a cold sweat for himself.
It seems that his bet was right, Xu Xinyi wanted to keep the jade pendant for himself, which gave him the opportunity to continue his escape.
But once they run far enough away, I'm afraid the female monk will kill him immediately!
"Only one more gamble!"
Qin Shaoyou took a few deep breaths and quickened his pace again.
The two of them walked through the woods one after the other, and not long after, they had left the waterfall for more than ten miles.
And at this moment, Qin Shaoyou discovered to his horror that the woman who had been hanging behind her was missing!
"not good!"
He subconsciously rolled to the side and saw a ray of green light bursting out of the dense forest and whizzing past his forehead!
Then Xu Xinyi appeared, slapped him on the shoulder, and the violent spiritual power sent him flying away in an instant!
He rolled dozens of times in the air, and finally hit the ground with a bang!
Suffering such a heavy blow, the storage bag and jade pendant in his hands fell apart and fell into the grass.
"Pfft!"
Qin Shaoyou's expression became a little strange, and then he spat out a large mouthful of blood.
At this time, he was lying limply in the hole on the ground. In front of him, there was a long ravine.
"Kekeke..."
"The mountains and rivers here are beautiful. Are you quite good at choosing places?"
Xu Xinyi walked towards him slowly with light steps.
She shook the long sword in her hand, and the blade brought out a few wisps of misty blue lines.
That's the aura on the fairy sword. It looks gorgeous, but it's full of murderous intent!
"Little brother, don't blame your sister for being cruel. If you want to blame it, blame it on your bad fate!"
Qin Shaoyou looked at her silently and glanced at the lake beside him.
A certain creature under the lake became furious after hearing the word "monster".
Xu Xinyi seemed to feel something, and turned her head slightly to look at the lake.
Then, her expression changed drastically!
The fish that were playing in the lake suddenly dispersed in panic, and then a dull rumble came from the ground.
Then, the entire lake slowly arched upwards, and then, a huge body rushed out of the water!
Xu Xinyi was so frightened that her face turned pale.
The thing in front of her was completely brown, with scales all over its body. Its huge head shook a few times, and then its green eyes locked on her body.
A third-level monster is equivalent to the strength of a monk at the Golden Core Realm, but this Xu Xianyuan is only at the Qi Refining Realm!
Qi refining, foundation building, and golden elixir are two completely different realms!
"Senior...Senior, I didn't mean to offend you, please atone for my sins!"
Powerful monsters have their own territory. Obviously, this lake in the forest is the territory of this earth-scale anaconda.
Xu Xinyi felt like she had fallen into an ice cellar. If I had known this, I might as well have killed Qin Shaoyou early in the morning!
The ground-scale anaconda slowly leaned over. The woman was so frightened that she backed away. She was about to run away, but she saw white breath spurting out from the huge mouth of the giant beast. Wherever the breath touched, the vegetation froze and was instantly covered with a layer of ice and snow.
Frost!
In just an instant, Xu Xinyi's feet were frozen to the ground.
"don't want!"
"Don't eat me!"
She was scared to death.
Just as she was about to be swallowed by the ground-scale anaconda, a dazzling blue light flashed over the forest, and the blue light hit the back of the ground-scale anaconda's head with a "bang"!
The lightning leaped four times and spread across the entire lake in an instant!
