Chapter 12 The Calm Before the Storm

Ling Qingzhu sensed that the distance between the two people behind him was gradually getting closer, and decisively stopped his plan to run away, and began to absorb the vitality of heaven and earth with all his strength to prepare for the battle.

The speed of the two opponents is too fast, and it will be a matter of time before they are overtaken. Instead of waiting for the opponent to catch up and passively challenge them, it is better to take the initiative and seize the opportunity.

If she was dealing with just one person, Ling Qingzhu could quickly deal with the opponent, but if she was dealing with two such powerful enemies at the same time, she had no chance of winning.

Now that the location is favorable and the people are on the other side's side, if we can't quickly deal with the two opponents, and wait until other pursuers from the Ling family arrive to support them, the situation will only get worse.

"Brother Xun, Brother Hu, we haven't seen each other for five years. I didn't expect that our reunion would be in such a form."

Ling Qingzhu looked at the two people chasing her, with complicated expressions in her eyes, and sighed in a tone full of regret.

Ling Qingzhu's idea was very simple. Since he was too strong to defeat the opponent for the time being, he could only play the emotional card and find an opportunity to sneak attack.

Suddenly hearing these lamentable words, Ling Xun and Ling Hu couldn't help but waver in their murderous determination.

"Since she still recognizes him as her brother, maybe we can persuade her to go back peacefully." The two of them looked at Ling Qingzhu's complicated eyes and couldn't help but think so.

"If that's the case, then..."

"Can you tell me a story?" Ling Xun was about to say something, but was interrupted by Ling Qingzhu.

Ling Qingzhu did not take action immediately because she could feel that although Ling Xun and Ling Hu were moved by her words, they were still vigilant.

Before Ling Xun and Ling Hu could respond, Ling Qingzhu began to talk to himself.

"There is a little girl who has been very weak since she was born and can only survive on various decoctions. But she feels very happy with this life because she has parents who love her and her mother is very gentle.

Her father was also very kind. Unfortunately, her father died later and her kind father was no longer around. Her mother was also deeply affected by her father's death. After a serious illness, her body has been weak. The girl is also very sensible and works hard to be a good mother to her grandfather and uncles.

The people she arranged, her grandfather and uncles also doted on her, but at that time her only wish was to make her mother's illness better and let her mother live a good life. She wanted to tell her mother that she was still here when her father was gone, but

Do you know what happened in the end? The mother's condition did get better day by day, but the girl got a serious illness and became dementia. After her dementia, her life took a turn for the worse. The uncle who doted on her disappeared.

Her cousins ​​bullied her and beat her, and in the end, not only did they beat her, but her mother was also beaten to death when she tried to stop them. Do you understand how this little girl feels now that she has recovered from her illness?"

At the end of the sentence, Ling Qingzhu looked at Ling Xun and Ling Hu, who had their heads lowered silently, and asked loudly, while at the same time, his left eye turned into a moon pupil and cast an illusion spell on them.

When Ling Xun and Ling Hu heard Ling Qingzhu's second sentence, they already knew who the little girl she was talking about was.

Although they did not bully Ling Qingzhu, they did receive help from Ling Qingzhu but did not repay him.

And now he was sent to deal with Ling Qingzhu, so when he heard what happened, he subconsciously put himself among those ungrateful people.

Until he finally heard Ling Qingzhu's loud question, he subconsciously raised his head and wanted to say something.

So the moment the two of them raised their heads, they met Ling Qingzhu's left eye at the same time. Even if they realized that they had been tricked, it was still too late.

Ling Qingzhu has too little vitality in her body, and even if she uses it entirely to perform illusions, she still cannot control a monk whose cultivation level is higher than her own.

What's more, she couldn't leave any energy at all, so after giving Ling Xun and Ling Hu an illusion that made each other look like her, she took the opportunity to use the magical power of shrinking into an inch and left quickly.

Ling Qingzhu knew that this strategy of playing the emotional card could only be used once, and there would be absolutely nothing to say the next time they met.

Although he was just looking for a random direction because he was unfamiliar with the place, Ling Qingzhu was quite lucky this time and did not encounter any Ling family pursuers along the way.

After Ling Qingzhu sneaked into a city, for the sake of safety, he immediately controlled a city gate guard with his moon pupils.

If the Ling family's pursuers really catch up to this city, the guard guarding the city gate will definitely be the first to know, and he will be able to notify him when the time comes.

Then Ling Qingzhu found an inn and rented it for half a month at a time.

After experiencing so many ups and downs and life-and-death crises in two days, and running away with serious injuries, she already felt deeply exhausted.

Ling Qingzhu fell asleep for a long time. In her dream, she seemed to have returned to the days before her memories were awakened. She lived carefree in the Ling family compound with her parents, Ling Yunzhi and Lu Yuner, until she grew up and married a...



"ah!"

Ling Qingzhu, who was lying on the inn bed, immediately screamed and sat up from the bed.

Oh my god, this scares me to death. Why did this beautiful dream suddenly turn into a nightmare?

Ling Qingzhu wiped the fine sweat on his forehead, and was so frightened that his heart was still beating rapidly.

However, after being frightened and waking up, Ling Qingzhu no longer felt sleepy and left the inn directly to get something to eat outside.

After deducting half a month's rent, there was still some silver left in the storage ring she picked up in Shoutai City a few days ago, which was enough for her to make future plans before all the silver was spent.

After eating and drinking, Ling Qingzhu sold another spiritual weapon in a storage ring and customized some fitting clothes for herself. It was always inappropriate to wear the clothes of the Ling family's maids all the time.

The comfortable days always passed quickly, and half a month passed in a blink of an eye. During this period, in addition to eating and sleeping every day, Ling Qingzhu finally succeeded in awakening from the strange fire brand and cultivating the endless three thousand flames.

Although the power is very weak, not only can it not be compared with the endless three thousand flames at its peak, it is even far behind the first strange fire she got when she first arrived in the Tianwu world in her previous life. But with the strange fire, she can do

Things will be much more convenient.

Another half month passed without receiving any news from the city gate guards, which made Ling Qingzhu feel that something was wrong.

It was so peaceful, almost as if she had been given up.

When Ling Qingzhu faced this kind of calm, she didn't think that the limelight had passed, but thought that it was the calm before the storm. Once it broke out, it would be fatal, so she decided to leave.

As long as you don't stay in one place for a long time, any traps the other party prepares for you will be useless. This is the experience she accumulated in her previous life.
