Chu Li and Li Ruolan held their breath and remained motionless.
The old man's gaze was like substance. When it shined on his body, he felt like he could feel the cold water pouring down on him. He didn't dare to move.
Li Ruolan couldn't help but want to raise her head, but Chu Li pulled her sleeves and discovered her intention to stop her in advance.
He stretched out his right palm in front of her eyes, blocking her gaze.
This old man's strength is astonishing. If his gaze shines on him, it may even arouse his feelings and attract his attention.
Li Ruolan was startled and realized that she was careless. She nodded quickly and closed her eyes to indicate that she understood.
She also knows that top players have very keen eyesight and can be sensed by the opponent with just one glance.
The old man's scorching eyes swept back and forth in this forest. After going back and forth for several times, he slowly withdrew his gaze and turned his head to look elsewhere.
Li Ruolan didn't dare to stare directly, so she glanced upward from the corner of her eye. When she saw him looking back, she breathed a long sigh of relief and relaxed her body.
Chu Li shook his head and raised his left index finger in front of his lips, signaling not to speak.
Li Ruolan nodded slightly to indicate that she understood.
The two of them stood as still as stones, waiting for the old man to leave.
The skinny old man stood on the top of the cliff, looked down at his surroundings, and said calmly: "There is moonlight today, but you can't be careless. They may break in tonight and light the torch below!"
"Yes!" The four middle-aged men responded respectfully.
"Uncle Liu." A middle-aged man clasped his fists and said, "Could they have left somewhere else?"
This middle-aged man is short in stature, but extremely handsome. His eyes are round and bright, scorching, and he has a majestic and high-spirited look.
"No." The thin old man shook his head.
The middle-aged man said: "If it were me, if I knew someone was surrounding me, I would definitely do the opposite. I would go south first and find a place to live in seclusion for a while. When we have no choice but to retreat, they would return north. Wouldn't it be wrong?
He easily broke through the siege and escaped unscathed."
"That's right." The other three middle-aged men nodded and agreed with him.
The thin old man glanced at the four people and shook his head.
The middle-aged man hurriedly said: "Uncle Liu, are we thinking wrong?"
"You are following our Haicangshan idea." The thin old man said calmly: "What if it is changed to Zhuanlun Temple? If the monks of Zhuanlun Temple encounter this kind of siege, will they do what you think?"
"Zhuanlun Temple..." The four of them frowned.
The skinny old man hummed: "Xiao Guo, what do you think they would do if they were the monks from Zhuanlun Temple?"
"These guys are so arrogant!" The middle-aged man snorted and sneered: "They will definitely face difficulties and will never back down. They will definitely break through!"
"The monks of Zhuanlun Temple would do this, but what about the disciples of the Guangming Holy Sect?" The thin old man shook his head and said: "These first sects each have their own special ideas and unique acting styles, but there are some things in common, and that is madness.
It is unavoidable to be arrogant because the monks of Zhuanlun Temple are monks, how can the Guangming Holy Religion be any different?"
"Understood!" The four nodded.
The skinny old man hummed: "Knowing that we will set up an ambush, these two disciples of the Guangming Holy Cult will also break through and will not hide in the south. Therefore, either tonight or tomorrow night, the two of them will definitely break in here."
, cheer up and don’t make mistakes!”
"Yes!" The four people clasped their fists and said in a deep voice.
The skinny old man said: "This man's bright sword is extremely domineering. He turned Zhao Haiyun's head into a ball of paste. Even after taking the elixir, he could not save him. If the two of them escape back, the people of Haicang Mountain will be thrown into the mountains."
After leaving, as a disciple of Haicang Mountain, I don’t want to raise my head in Daqiu Wulin!"
"Yes!" The four people were refreshed and murderous intent flashed.
We must kill these two guys from the Guangming Holy Sect to avenge Junior Brother Zhao, and at the same time let everyone see that no matter which sect they are, even if they are the first sect in Dali, if they kill the disciples of Haicang Mountain, they will only die!
The four people jumped down, like four goshawks circling and landing at the bottom of the canyon. Several bonfires were quickly lit, and the flames were blazing, illuminating the path below the canyon, and more than a dozen torches were inserted into the mountain wall.
There was almost no place in the entrance of the entire canyon that could not be illuminated by fire. Standing on the cliff, they could see clearly and could not hide in the shadows to avoid their gaze.
Chu Li frowned.
Under Da Yuanjing's wisdom, he saw that there were twelve masters hiding in the canyon. They were similar to these four middle-aged masters. Each of them was almost the same as Li Ruolan. Once he was besieged, he could escape, but Li Ruolan might not be able to escape.
In this way, don't think about the silent past.
The skinny old man suddenly jumped down, rushed toward the woods where Chu Li and Li Ruolan were, and shouted: "Where to hide!"
Li Ruolan remained motionless and looked at Chu Li.
She has learned her lesson. Everything depends on Zhao Dahe. Zhao Dahe is a genius, not only in cultivation, but also in battle. He seems to be a born general and can always find the most correct way to deal with it.
After only a few months of experience, he is more powerful than his more than ten years of experience. This is talent, which cannot be viewed with common sense.
Chu Li stretched out his hand and pressed the back of Li Ruolan's head, then lay down with her under the root of the tree, motionless, as if they had transformed into the stone next to them.
Both of them were dressed in black. Even if the moonlight was bright, they could not illuminate the bottom of the tree. Even if they saw darkness as nothing and night vision as day, they could not be distinguished from the surrounding trees, grass and rocks.
"Boom..." A sound hit the tree two feet away from them. The branches suddenly creaked and slowly fell down, just in time to avoid them.
The old man's gaze passed over them like lightning.
Li Ruolan's heart almost jumped out of her chest and she was extremely nervous.
But the heartbeat is extremely slow, and he is running a secret art. His heartbeat is slower than that of a hibernating animal, and it takes a long time to jump slightly, which is nothing compared to the chirping of the insects around him.
Chu Li circulates the Ku Rong Sutra and blends into the surrounding trees, making heaven and man one.
His cold, lightning-like eyes glanced over again, and finally did not stop. He floated up, soared up, and landed on the cliff.
"Uncle Liu, did you really see them?"
"No." The thin old man shook his head: "It's just a feeling that they are in that forest!"
He pointed at the woods where Chu Li was, his eyes burning and his tone sure.
"That's easy!" said the middle-aged man who spoke earlier: "The four of us can go through such a large forest like a net, and there will be no place to escape!"
"...That's fine." The thin old man said: "The bright sword is hard to guard against, so you must be careful!"
"Don't worry!" the four middle-aged men said solemnly.
Thinking of Zhao Haiyun's death, their hair stood on end and their whole bodies tensed up.
Even though he was killed by the Bright Sword even though he was wearing precious clothes, Zhao Haiyun's cultivation level was not inferior to his own!
But with Uncle Liu above him, he was not afraid of them. Besides, they might not dare to show their heads, otherwise they would definitely die!
"Let's go!" The four of them looked at each other and floated down the cliff, ten meters apart from each other, forming a net and slowly approaching the woods. (To be continued.)
