Li Muchan took the sword and said with a smile: "Watch me kill them all!"
His sword drew a silver streak, surpassing Xiao Tieshi in the blink of an eye, and shouted loudly: "Guys from Lieyan Sect, take the sword!"
He waved his sword while looking at the situation on the other side. If they were not from the Lieyan Sect, they would naturally put away the sword, but judging from their expressions, they were obviously disciples of the Lieyan Sect.
Everyone drew their swords and came forward, and a middle-aged man shouted in a deep voice: "It should be the three of them!... Are you Li Wuji of the Vajra Sect?"
"It's your Grandpa Li!" Li Muchan shouted, and the sword suddenly came to the middle-aged man's eyes.
The middle-aged man shouted loudly: "Be careful with his knife, it is a spring water knife, don't use it forcefully!"
He turned sideways to avoid the light of the sword. When he was about to speak again, Li Muchan twisted his wrist and changed his moves, from a downward slash to a horizontal slash. The speed was so fast that the middle-aged man had no time to react.
"Ding..." With a crisp sound, the middle-aged man looked up to the sky and fell.
Li Muchan then swung his sword and rushed into the crowd, like a wolf rushing into a flock of sheep, with no one able to defeat its enemy. It was invincible. By the time Xiao Tieshi rushed over, the dozen or so people had already dispersed.
Knowing that they couldn't defeat them, it was better to retreat first rather than risk death. With this idea in mind, they rushed into the woods on both sides of the official road in the blink of an eye.
Li Muchan did not pursue him, but turned to Xiao Tieshi and said: "Senior Brother, we are in a bad situation. We cannot stop breathing. It is best to speed up and rush over before the people in front get the news."
Xiao Tieshi shook his head: "It's difficult. They usually have carrier pigeons to send messages. No matter how fast we go, we can't be faster than pigeons. It doesn't matter."
Li Muchan smiled bitterly: "Don't look at how powerful we are now. Once the real masters come, the three of us will not be enough for others to kill. By then, it will be others who will be the most powerful."
Xiao Tieshi smiled: "I didn't expect you, Junior Brother Li, to be afraid."
Li Muchan smiled and said: "Don't listen to what my senior sister says. She must say that I am a fool who only knows how to work hard and not be afraid, right?"
Xiao Tieshi chuckled, it was Xiao Ruxue who had come over. Li Muchan said no more, and Xiao Tieshi didn't say anything either. He just waved and said to hurry up.
They were galloping, as fast as galloping horses. Xiao Ruxue was the worst among the three, but she had a very deep foundation, which was inspired by such a situation. Although she was exhausted, it did not hinder the two of them.
In the evening, they arrived at a big city. They bought six horses without stopping in the city. Therefore, Li Muchan also went to borrow some money from a wealthy family in the city.
There were three people and six horses, and the horses did not change. The next day they galloped all day without stopping, only resting four or five times to give the six horses a rest.
They didn't encounter any harassment along the way, as if Lieyan Sect had forgotten them. Instead, the three of them felt anxious and cautious. It felt like the calm before the storm.
In the evening of that day, the three of them happened to arrive in front of a big city again. The three of them decided to go in and rest for a while and buy three more horses. One person and two horses were not fast enough, so they had to stop and rest.
Although the city of Qing'an was prosperous, they had no time to wander around and wanted to find someone to buy horses. However, the mule and horse market in the city had been closed and would not open until daytime tomorrow.
The three of them were not so patient. In desperation, Li Muchan directly went to the inn's waiter and asked him to pick out three horses. He then negotiated with the horse's owner and bought the three horses at a high price.
The three of them set out early the next day and waited at the city gate. As soon as the city gate opened, they went straight out of the city without any delay. Then they galloped away with three horses per person and nine horses in total.
The nine horses galloped together with great momentum, attracting people's attention, and the three of them didn't care. The more peaceful it was, the more they felt in their hearts, as if there was a big battle waiting for them ahead.
After running for another day, they arrived at a small town in the evening. It was still dark and twilight was just rising.
Li Muchan suddenly reined in his horse. The three of them were riding side by side. Xiao Tieshi and Xiao Ruxue were unprepared and hurriedly followed and reined in their horses. They had already run three feet away.
"Junior brother, what's the matter?" Xiao Ruxue asked in a loud voice, holding the reins and turning the horse around.
Li Muchan looked at the small town in the distance where the lights were on, shook his head and said: "Senior sister, senior brother, I have an ominous premonition, we can't enter here!"
Xiao Tieshi and Xiao Ruxue were stunned for a moment, then their expressions changed.
The last time he was in front of that small town, Li Muchan had an ominous feeling, so he carefully tested it, and sure enough, there were people from the Lieyan Sect.
Xiao Tieshi has been on the battlefield and knows how powerful intuition is. Many veterans have such intuition and can predict approaching danger.
Xiao Ruxue asked: "What should we do? We can't go back."
Li Muchan thought for a moment and said, "Let's take a detour!"
"Detour?" Xiao Ruxue hesitated and looked at Xiao Tieshi.
Xiao Tieshi said: "Junior Brother Li, do you know the way here?"
Li Muchan smiled: "I don't recognize him, but I just need to ask someone to find out."
"Yeah, that's fine." Xiao Tieshi nodded.
It happened that two young men were walking this way together, carrying firewood on their shoulders and walking heavily. It was obvious from a glance that they had never practiced martial arts.
"Little brothers, excuse me..." Xiao Tieshi got off his horse, clasped his fists to meet the two young men, and asked in a gentle voice if there was a way around the small town ahead.
The two of them looked at each other and happily explained the route. There was indeed a way around the town. Xiao Tieshi's expression did not change and he thanked her warmly. Xiao Ruxue could not help but smile.
However, Li Muchan suddenly dodged and reached behind the two of them. He reached out and patted their vests. The two of them suddenly dodged and ran forward, but they were not as fast as Li Muchan. In an instant, they were caught up and hit on their vests.
"Junior brother, you...?" Xiao Ruxue looked at him in confusion.
Li Muchan shook his head and said: "Senior sister, they should also be disciples of Lieyan Sect."
Xiao Ruxue was surprised: "Really?"
Li Muchan said: "I wasn't sure, so I gave it a try. Unexpectedly, I found out the truth as soon as I tried it. Their internal strength is indeed that of the Lieyan Sect."
Xiao Tieshi laughed: "Junior brother Li, Ruxue has misjudged the person. I thought you were careless. I didn't expect that you are much more careful than us!"
Li Muchan smiled and said: "I was forced to do nothing but cheer up."
Xiao Ruxue looked at Li Muchan up and down in surprise, thinking that he was rude and rude. She was lucky to kill Huang Yifeng last time, but now it seems that she has underestimated Junior Brother Li!
Xiao Tieshi glanced at the two people lying on the ground and saw that their acupuncture points were sealed. He sighed: "I wonder if the path they pointed to is correct?"
Li Muchan smiled and said, "Just ask someone else."
They first led the nine horses into the woods, and then waited by the roadside. Fortunately, in the evening, there were more pedestrians, all rushing towards the town.
Xiao Ruxue stopped two groups of people to ask for directions, and finally found out that there was indeed a way around the town, but the path was remote and difficult to navigate, and it was impossible for anyone but an acquaintance to find it.
Li Muchan took a piece of silver and hired this man to lead the way. He was a clever young man. When he saw the nine horses, he shook his head hurriedly and said that the horses could not walk that road at all.
Xiao Tieshi made a prompt decision and asked the nine horses to turn their heads in the direction they came from. He slapped the front horse hard. The horse galloped away in pain, and the nine horses disappeared in the blink of an eye.
The young man was astonished to see these nine horses. They were of great value. It was really generous to throw them away.
He touched another ingot of silver in his arms, strode forward and led the way through the woods, then went up the nearby mountain and walked along a path on the mountain.
By the time they climbed up the mountain, it was already dark and the moon was slowly rising. When the boy reached the top of the mountain, he pointed to the other side and told them to just go down the mountain, and then left on his own.
The three of them stood on the top of the mountain, with the night wind blowing and a bright moon hanging high above their heads, shining brightly all over.
Li Muchan looked around and said with a smile: "Senior Brother, Senior Sister, we are being chased in such a embarrassing situation, we must regain this face from the Lieyan Sect in the future!"
"That's natural!" Xiao Tieshi hummed in a deep voice.
Li Muchan smiled and said: "If we go around here, maybe we can overcome the difficulty. After meeting Master and the others, we can go back and settle the score!"
Xiao Ruxue said: "It's better to practice your martial arts first and then talk about it!"
They didn't stop any longer and went down a path. When they reached the foot of the mountain, they were already at the south side of the town. Sure enough, they had bypassed the town.
At the foot of the mountain was a lush forest. They walked through the forest. When they reached the official road, Li Muchan suddenly stopped and frowned.
He didn't realize that there were three old men standing under the shade of the tree, submerged in the darkness, standing motionless as if they had transformed into trees.
When Li Muchan froze, Xiao Tieshi and Xiao Ruxue also stopped and saw the three old men in the shadows.
The three old men were all wearing brown robes. Xiao Tieshi said solemnly: "They are all elders of Lieyan Sect."
The elders of Lieyan Sect wear brown robes, which most people in the martial arts world know, and they have a flame embroidered on their chests, so others don't dare to wear them like this.
Li Muchan whispered: "Senior Brother, Senior Sister, you take the first step, and I will block you."
"Junior Brother Li, you and my little sister go first, I will stop you!" Xiao Tieshi waved his hand and said decisively, leaving no room for doubt.
Li Muchan said: "Senior Brother, I only need to block you and I can get away, don't worry."
"Any one of these three elders of Lieyan Sect can kill us!" Xiao Tieshi shook his head.
Li Muchan whispered: "I met two elders of Lieyan Sect earlier, and they didn't do anything to me. Didn't I escape anyway?"
"You are injured." Xiao Tieshi said.
Li Muchan said: "To me, two is almost the same as three. I am not good at other things, but I still have the ability to escape. Senior brother, you take senior sister and leave first. Master and the others are coming soon!"
He added: "Senior sister, you know what I am capable of, please give me some advice, senior brother!"
Xiao Ruxue frowned and stared at the three old men in front of her. She shook her head and said, "Junior brother Li, let's fight together. If we die, we will die. It's no big deal!"
If there were one elder or two, Junior Brother Li would still have a chance to escape, but these are three. No matter how powerful Junior Brother Li is, he can't escape.
Li Muchan said anxiously: "Sister, I am also greedy for life and afraid of death. If I was really not sure, I would have run away long ago. You are here to hurt me!"
Xiao Tieshi turned to look at Li Muchan: "Junior Brother Li, can you really make it?"
Li Muchan nodded hurriedly: "I will do it!"
"...Well, if you are no longer here, we will definitely avenge you!" Xiao Tieshi nodded slowly, turned around and said: "Little sister, let's go!"
"Brother——!" Xiao Ruxue said angrily.
She was asked to leave Li Muchan and die alone. It would be better to die just to live in secret. She shook her head and said: "Brother, you go first, I will go with Junior Brother Li!"
Xiao Tieshi's face darkened: "Little sister, please don't be willful, we will only drag down Junior Brother Li here!"
He understood that Li Muchan possessed secret skills, and he could tell that Li Muchan's condition must have been caused by the use of secret skills.
He had heard of such secret techniques, but was not qualified to use them yet. The Vajra Sect's martial arts also had such secret techniques, but they needed to be practiced to a certain level before they could learn them.
He didn't know how Li Muchan learned it, it must have been taught secretly by his uncle, but with this technique, it was more possible to escape, and he was not completely destined to die.
*******************************************
Li Muchan said hurriedly: "Senior sister, I have a unique ability to escape. If you come with me, you will really hurt me. Let's go with senior brother first!"
Xiao Ruxue frowned and asked, "Really?"
Li Muchan nodded hurriedly: "Really, really, really!"
"Then you can definitely escape?" Xiao Ruxue asked.
Li Muchan nodded firmly and said: "Of course I can escape! My life is very tough. Senior sister, please stop nagging me. If you talk any more, they will take action!"
Xiao Ruxue nodded slowly, stared at him closely and said, "You must come back!"
Li Muchan smiled and said: "I will marry you, senior sister, in the future. Of course I will come back!"
Xiao Ruxue blushed and rolled her eyes at him: "At this point, you can still make jokes. It's really..."
Li Muchan said with a smile: "I'm not joking, I mean it sincerely!"
Xiao Ruxue said hurriedly: "Okay, okay, let's go first!"
Li Muchan said: "As soon as I take action, you will start immediately and run forward with all your strength. I won't be able to hold you back for long!"
Xiao Ruxue came close to his ear, lowered her voice as low as a mosquito, and whispered: "Don't be brave, we will find a place to hide."
As she spoke, she glanced at the mountains behind her. Li Muchan nodded knowingly, took the sword, and slowly walked toward the three old men.
A slender old man grinned and said calmly: "Little guy, are you Li Wuji from the Vajra Gate?"
Li Muchan nodded proudly: "Yes, that's right. What do you think you can do with these three seniors?"
"We members of Lieyan Sect cannot die in vain, you must pay with your life." The thin elder said calmly, with indifference in his voice, as if he was telling a fact.
Li Muchan smiled and said: "You Lieyan Sect provoked me first, no wonder I killed someone!"
The thin elder waved his hand: "Okay, who can tell whether it's reasonable or not? In the final analysis, we martial arts people still have to look at the skill of the hands, not the skill of words!"
Li Muchan laughed: "That's right, give me a knife!"
His long knife drew a string of shadows, and struck him instantly. At this moment, he knew he could not hesitate, and directly burned his internal energy. The internal energy was like a torch, and his skill more than doubled. This sword went beyond the speed visible to the naked eye.
The thin elder did not expect that Li Muchan's sword skills were so sharp, so he hurriedly took a step back. Li Muchan rushed forward, took two steps to get between the three of them, and the sword light rolled towards the other two old men.
The other two old men, one tall and one short, with sneers on their faces, stretched out their hands to pat the sword.
Li Muchan was overjoyed, and the sword sped up sharply. "Ding! Ding!" made two crisp sounds, and the palms of the two men hit the blade. The sword trembled, and then accelerated again, slashing at the two of them.
The two of them did not expect that their palm strike could not knock the knife away, and they hurriedly retreated to dodge. Taking advantage of this time, Xiao Tieshi pulled Xiao Ruxue to the side and went into the woods.
Another short old man wanted to chase him, but Li Muchan's sword light came again, so he had to turn around and pay it forward, not caring about chasing Xiao Tieshi and Xiao Ruxue.
The three of them knew that Li Wuji's kung fu from the Vajra Sect was powerful, but they didn't expect it to be so powerful. Li Muchan directly burned his internal energy, doubled his skill, and his sword skills were extremely sharp, and his every move was equally effective, forcing them to avoid his edge.
In the blink of an eye, Li Muchan had already launched more than twenty moves. The sword light involved all three of them, preventing them from getting away and chasing Xiao Tieshi and Xiao Ruxue.
When the two men were gone, Li Muchan's momentum suddenly leaked. The three of them took advantage of the situation and rushed in. Their palms were like lightning, and they were extremely precise. Every palm hit the sword accurately.
"Ding ding ding ding..." In the sound of gold and iron, Li Muchan's sword trembled continuously, and was about to fly out of Li Muchan's hand at any time, but it was always held by him.
After another twenty moves, they finally realized that it was not easy to knock away his sword and that pulling out the tiger's teeth would not work as expected, so they changed their moves and attacked Li Muchan's body.
Li Muchan used the Vajra Clothes, regardless of the three people's palm power, hoping to injure both sides. His inner energy was burning, and he went crazy. His moves were cruel and fast, yet subtle. Although he was suppressed, he was still able to hold on to the door.
, the three of them had to pay a price if they wanted to hit him.
After a hundred moves, Li Muchan frowned and used the Burning Lamp Technique and the Void Air Entrainment Technique at the same time, but the Void Air Entrainment Technique could not satisfy the burning of his internal energy.
His internal energy is now extremely pure, much purer than the spiritual energy in the void, and it is night again. If it were daytime, he could still use the Diamond Transformation Rainbow Sutra to absorb the internal energy, but now it is not possible.
So his internal strength gradually slowed down, and after another hundred moves, his internal strength was exhausted, and he was about to leave the building empty. In desperation, he wanted to use the Great Ming King Sutra.
But these three old men were extremely shrewd. One look at Li Muchan's appearance and they could tell that he was at the end of his strength, so they immediately stepped up their offensive. Suddenly, the three of them formed a formation.
They had previously fought separately, but at this critical moment they formed a formation and their power doubled. Li Muchan felt countless palms slapping down in front of him, as if the surrounding space was filled.
Li Muchan received two slaps in the blink of an eye, each palm was as hot as a scorcher, as if he was being roasted, his internal organs were shaken, and he had suffered internal injuries.
Li Muchan smiled bitterly to himself, he didn't expect to end up here.
