Xiao Yan and the others walked carefully on the winding mountain road...
After the battle with Dan Bingyan, Dan Ding and the ambush of Hun Yingjue, the speed of Xiao Yan and the others advancing inside had lagged behind the many Dou Emperors who had come in together. Along the way, they saw not many people.
And when some Dou Emperors they met occasionally saw the crescent moon marks on the foreheads of Xiao Yan and the others as red as blood, they were afraid to avoid them, so how could they think of stopping the killing?
The three of them walked through several sections of the mountain road without incident. After experiencing a series of bloody battles, they were somewhat uncomfortable with this oppressive silence.
"If I didn't always feel like that damn soul shadow was watching behind me, I would like to relax." The more it seemed like nothing was going on, the higher Jing Wuchen's heart lifted. "It's rare that this mountain road is so quiet, but
It’s so depressing to have to be on tenterhooks!”
"It's hard to guard against it, but you still have to guard against it. It's really annoying!"
The soul power that he was quite proud of met his nemesis, which made Xiao Yan's originally brisk pace bring with it a lingering irritability.
Long Yi didn't say anything. He walked behind Xiao Yan and Jing Wuchen with the thunder spear in hand. All the power of thunder and lightning was contained in the gun body, and it could deliver a fatal blow at any time.
The three of them continued walking, but they spoke much less to each other, and silently walked past the corpses and severed limbs along the way.
...
At a recess on the mountain road, the three of them stopped and lit a bonfire to rest for a while.
Jing Wuchen's tense nerves couldn't stand it anymore, and he complained to Xiao Yan: "It's been more than a month. I have to be distracted when fighting, and be careful when nothing happens. I don't even dare to have a good sleep when I rest. Xiao Yan
The strings in my head are almost broken."
Xiao Yan squatted and leaned against the cliff of the mountain road, flicking the bonfire in front of him, watching the sparks flying, and said slowly: "With Long Yi and me here, you can have a good rest."
"How can I sleep?" Jing Wuchen yelled softly, "When I close my eyes, I always feel a chill down my spine, as if the black arrow might whiz at me at any time."
"Rest assured, Hun Ying will never take action against you." Xiao Yan narrowed his eyes slightly and looked around, "If he wanted to assassinate you, he wouldn't have taken such a long time."
"I'm not worried about myself, I'm worried about you." Jing Wuchen sighed, and then said, "You can let me rest peacefully, but I can't let you rest well even for a moment. I feel a little sorry."
"Hun Ying Jue came for me in the first place, what do you feel sorry for?" Xiao Yan felt the concern in Jing Wuchen's words and half-joked.
"Master, I also have a conscience, okay!" Jing Wuchen looked at Xiao Yan angrily, "Seriously, are you tired of being so vigilant all the time?"
"Am I tired?" Xiao Yan smiled, "Hunying Jue is also waiting for this answer. It's a pity that I'm not tired yet. If he wants to kill me, he will have to keep waiting!"
"Are you really not tired?" Jing Wuchen tapped his knees and looked sadly at Xiao Yan, who looked indifferent. He couldn't help but lament in his heart: They are both four-star peak fighting emperors, but they are exhausted, but others are
He is still energetic, so why is the difference so big? A peerless genius cannot be judged by common sense.
Xiao Yan seemed to have understood what Jing Wuchen was thinking, and shook his head with a half-smile.
Jing Wuchen thought for a while and continued: "But if this continues, it will delay the trip. Although the contrast between day and night here is not big, it will always be darker at night, which will have a big impact on the eyesight. We can't do it at night.
If we don’t slow down and keep going like this, when will we be able to enter the inner circle?”
"Slower speed also has the advantage of being slower. We can allocate more energy to guard against Hun Ying Jue's sneak attack." Xiao Yan took out the rolling leaf, lit one, and took a nice puff, "Moreover, we can also temporarily avoid those sneak attacks."
The Dou Emperors who are like crazy are not bad either."
"Didn't you say that fighting can sharpen your abilities? Why should you avoid it?"
Jing Wuchen glanced at Xiao Yan doubtfully, and also lit a roll of leaves. After taking a few puffs, he felt that his nervous nerves were slightly relieved.
"I found that fighting against those peerless geniuses can further stimulate my potential." Xiao Yan blew out a few smoke rings and suddenly lowered his voice, "After the battle with Dan Bingyan, I have a new understanding of the power of the soul.
I feel that I am much closer to the realm I want to reach, and I estimate that a breakthrough is just around the corner."
"I don't want to distract myself when being spied on by a powerful enemy. This may be why I am not very interested in sesame seeds when there are watermelons to pick up." Xiao Yan added another sentence, blocking Jing Wuchen's question.
Open your mouth.
Jing Wuchen had to suppress his curiosity to ask what level Xiao Yan's soul power had reached.
But after a while, he couldn't help chatting with Xiao Yan: "Then why are you lighting a bonfire? Are you still afraid of the cold?"
"I want to tell Hunying Jue that I am here." Xiao Yan's face remained calm, "He won't let me rest, and I won't let him rest either. I believe that he will never miss this opportunity to observe us.
Given the opportunity, he will definitely focus on us."
"What do you mean, let him take a good look at us?" Cold sweat broke out on Jing Wuchen's forehead, "You are risking your own life!"
"I believe he has seen enough of our battles during the day." Xiao Yan pursed his lips tightly, his face serious, "Then I will give him the opportunity to observe us carefully at night. I hope it will make him feel better.
If I'm sure, he will come out soon."
"Brother, can you be considered a brave artist?"
Jing Wuchen's eyes were as big as a bull's eye.
"I was forced too, okay?"
Xiao Yan smiled bitterly and frowned more and more as he looked at the confused night...
............
The three of them continued on their way, the blood moon in the sky was still strange, and the fighting on the mountain road gradually increased, but Hun Ying Jue seemed to have disappeared and never appeared again.
"Brother Xiao, do you think it's possible that Hun Yingjue left long ago when he saw that there was nothing he could do?"
The flying knife flashed in the air and passed through the throats of several Dou Emperors they had just met. Jing Wuchen turned to ask Xiao Yan.
"A person who gives up easily will never become a genius."
Xiao Yan's eyes fell on the Dou Emperors who were still alive after their throats were pierced by flying knives. Looking at the twisted faces, the irritability in his heart became a little stronger, and a trace of blood red flashed in his eyes from time to time.
of light.
Xiao Yan quickly used the power of his soul to suppress the influence of the blood moon on his heart. He took a few deep breaths in the dry mountain breeze before gradually calming down.
"Perhaps Hun Ying Jue wants to wait until I am upset, wait until my mood is damaged, wait until I am exhausted, and then wait for work to kill him with one strike. Even if he cannot assassinate me, he will leave a mental barrier for my future life. This person is indeed
Good intentions."
Xiao Yan is so smart, he figured out Hun Ying Jue's plan as soon as his mind was affected by the blood moon.
"Actually, the three of us are traveling together. With my strength and Long Yi's defense, we don't need to put all our attention on Hun Ying Jue. We just need to be careful."
After thinking about all this, Xiao Yan suddenly felt a lot more refreshed, and most of the irritability that had been pressing in his heart disappeared with the wind, and his steps became brisk.
As the pace of the three people quickened, they were getting closer and closer to the inner perimeter.
After going around several sections of the mountain road, looking from a distance, the greenery below became more and more intense, and a faint misty mist shrouded the place where green and dark alternated.
However, the closer we got to the inner siege, the more and more fighting there was. It seemed that many people were waiting near the entrance of the inner siege, wanting to kill more people and gain more merits before entering the inner siege.
"Damn it, you've got the wrong person!"
Xiao Yan looked at Dou Di rushing up from below, his sword eyebrows raised slantingly, and the depressed mood he had been feeling on guard against Hun Ying Jue finally burst out at this moment.
Xiao Yan took the lead and rushed forward, and the Heavenly Fire Eternal Ancient Ruler waved a scream in the air. Dou Emperor, who was rushing in front, didn't even have time to react. The sword was raised above their heads, and the heavy ruler had already struck their heads in the air.
Bring out a long red blood line.
Xiao Yan kept walking, turned his wrist, and waved the Heavenly Fire Eternal Ancient Ruler again. The fighting emperors behind him were blown away a lot in the "bang bang" sound, and their bodies rolled several times under the strong force before they stopped.
Next, blood overflowed from their mouths, and the look and vitality in their unwilling eyes quickly disappeared...
In just one round, most of the Dou Emperor who rushed up fell under Xiao Yan's feet, and blood dripped down the mountain road along the body of the ruler glowing with blue-gray flames, highlighting the almost crimson crescent mark on Xiao Yan's forehead.
People can't help but shudder when they see it.
Fighting violence with violence is always the most intimidating method. The noisy mountain road suddenly became quiet. The remaining Dou Emperor looked at Xiao Yan and lost their fighting spirit. Their originally flushed cheeks turned pale and their eyes bloomed.
It was no longer a fierce light, but was replaced by panic. He retreated faster than when he came, and soon ran away without a trace.
This scene continued to play out on the mountain road near the inner perimeter. Gradually, no other Dou Emperor could be seen where the three of them passed.
Maybe it was because they were shot out, or maybe they were frightened by Xiao Yan's fighting power and had already avoided it. In short, Xiao Yan and the other three never encountered any obstacles again, and the journey was smooth, making Jing Wuchen's smile extremely bright.
"Brother Xiao, your ruthlessness is really extraordinary." Jing Wuchen praised Xiao Yan.
"I can't find any trace of Hun Ying Jue. I have to calm down the anger in my chest, otherwise it will be really uncomfortable." Xiao Yan swallowed and replied angrily.
When it comes to Hun Ying Jue, Jing Wuchen Qi doesn't stop talking: "What on earth do you think that bastard is doing? It's been several months, and he hasn't appeared again! His sister, no matter what, is the same
As a man, why can’t you be more generous and come out to have a fight face to face?”
"You want a sneak attack guy to fight us face to face?"
Long Yi rolled his eyes when he heard Jing Wuchen's complaints.
"I'm so angry." Jing Wuchen also felt that what he said was a bit silly, so he quickly changed the subject, "Brother Xiao, have you ever sensed traces of Hun Ying Jue along the way?"
"If I sense it, will I still be indifferent?" Xiao Yan glanced at Jing Wuchen, "However, my hunch keeps telling me that Hun Ying Jue is near us and has never been far away."
"He's so patient!" Jing Wuchen kicked the corpse next to him off the cliff, "Just following him from afar without showing up, isn't he tired?"
"Do you think we are more tired or he is more tired?" Xiao Yan was also quite helpless with Hun Ying Jue's patience. (To be continued.)
