152: get away

Wang Yuwei never expected to be abandoned.

She was still standing there in a daze.

'What are you standing around foolishly for!'

Just at this moment, a familiar voice suddenly sounded in her ear.

The next second, she felt herself being grabbed by a warm and thick hand.

'Circulate the Dantian.'

That voice sounded again.

Wang Yuwei subconsciously circulated her spiritual energy, and then her light body was pulled up by the other party, running towards the dense forest in the darkness.

'Chase!'

Seeing this scene, Wang Tong shouted loudly.

The remaining Joyful Union Sect Disciples immediately adjusted their posture and chased after the two.

In the darkness, Zhou Luo, using the power of Wind Walk Without Trace, constantly changed direction, like a gust of clear wind passing by, moving extremely fast.

He originally wanted to leave early, so he deliberately distanced himself from the Lin Family members during the battle.

As a result, he didn't expect the other party to actually have a Talisman Treasure as a trump card.

So much so that he didn't retreat with Lin San and the others immediately.

When he was ready to leave, he suddenly found that Wang Yuwei was still standing there in a daze.

To be honest, given Zhou Luo's style of doing things, there was absolutely no need to take the risk to save the other party.

But just as he saved Bai Zhiyan at the Tianxia Tavern back then.

He couldn't just watch someone die without helping.

Since he had the ability to help the other party, why would he just watch them die?

This was simply his nature.

He couldn't be heartless and cold-blooded.

So he didn't hesitate to act and bring her out.

Of course, if only one could survive in the end, he definitely wouldn't be a bleeding heart.

This kind of thing.

As long as he had no regrets or guilt, that was enough.

Under the night sky, Wang Yuwei also gradually recovered her senses.

Pale blue spiritual energy appeared on her body, making her as light as a swallow, allowing Zhou Luo to better take her and flee forward.

Looking at the handsome, chiseled profile, Wang Yuwei's beautiful eyes flickered, showing gratitude.

If the other party hadn't reacted in time.

She would definitely have fallen into the hands of that group of Joyful Union Sect Disciples.

At that time, what awaited her might have been a fate worse than death.

She pursed her lips, trying her best to keep her body light, so as not to cause the other party any trouble.

She was an Alchemist, although she had the Qi Refining Fifth Layer Cultivation base, most of the time besides Pill Refining, she was meditating and Cultivating, so she hadn't learned many Cultivation Methods.

For example, the Wind Walk Without Trace she had traded with the other party earlier.

Now she deeply regretted not having properly practiced Cultivation Methods before going out this time.

Behind them, several Auras were rapidly approaching.

Leading the charge was Wang Tong, stepping on thin branches like a nimble ape, his entire body wrapped in golden spiritual energy, constantly closing in on them.

Although Zhou Luo was fast, Wang Tong was after all a Qi Training Seventh Layer expert and had mastered a certain movement technique.

So after a moment, he had already appeared behind them.

'Let's see where you're going to run.'

Wang Tong raised his right hand, spiritual light flickered in his palm, and a silver-white treasured sword appeared in his hand.

He pushed forward, and a sword light shot out, like rushing thunder, whistling with terrifying power.

Zhou Luo, who was pressing forward relentlessly, only heard a rapid sound of air being torn from behind. He didn't turn his body, but just took out a spiritual talisman from his storage ring and threw it towards the back.

Under the activation of spiritual energy, that spiritual talisman suddenly burst forth with dazzling blue light, condensing a layer of azure water curtain.

This was a High Grade spiritual talisman he had refined.

Although it had no offensive power, it was enough to block the enemy.

The water curtain rippled, standing in mid-air like a wall.

That sword light fiercely pierced towards the water curtain. The originally sharp momentum was instantly wrapped by countless water vapor upon contacting the water curtain, slowing down at a visible speed until it was finally extinguished by the water curtain.

After a moment, Wang Tong had already killed his way over.

He looked at the azure water curtain, his spiritual energy erupted, and he swung his sword decisively. The sharp blade instantly cut the water curtain.

Whoosh whoosh—

When he wanted to pursue forward again.

Several more spiritual talismans were thrown out by Zhou Luo, all emitting bright spiritual light and releasing various attacks to block him.

As a Spiritual Talisman Master, Zhou Luo had prepared quite a few spiritual talismans for this trip.

Now was the time for them to come into use.

Wang Tong couldn't avoid these spiritual talismans and could only constantly swing his sword to destroy them.

However, his speed also slowed down as a result, and the distance between him and the other party grew further and further.

'Damn it!' he cursed angrily.

At this moment, the other Joyful Union Sect Disciples behind him had also caught up.

Streaks of flying shuttles cut through the sky, whistling past.

'Senior Brother, we're here to help you!'

They attacked simultaneously, clearing obstacles for Wang Tong so that he could continue his pursuit forward.

With the help of his fellow Disciples, Wang Tong's speed burst forth again.

...

On the other side.

Lin San, whose face was pale, summoned a flying boat, took everyone onto it, and activated the defensive formation, rapidly retreating in the direction of Jiang City.

Behind them, dozens of figures were in close pursuit, constantly releasing attacks.

Those attacks landed on the golden light shield, making crackling sounds.

The flying boat's formation was quite sturdy, giving them a chance to catch their breath.

At the same time, the remaining Cultivators who still had strength were also counterattacking the pursuing enemies.

'Uncle Lin, I want to go save Yuwei.'

Lin Xin, who had come back to her senses, found that her good sister had been left behind, and immediately spoke up.

'Third Miss, stop being willful. That's a Qi Training Ninth Layer expert. We need to return to Jiang City immediately,' Lin San said with a serious expression.

Under these circumstances, protecting the important Zhou Family Disciples was the top priority.

As for that Wang Family Disciple.

To put it bluntly.

What did that have to do with their Lin Family?

Even if the Wang Family pursued the matter afterward, they certainly wouldn't be able to say anything after knowing the full story.

After all, that was a Qi Training Ninth Layer expert.

Actually, Lin San still had a chance to take Wang Yuwei with him at that time.

But at that moment, he still chose to abandon the other party.

On one hand, it was because the situation was urgent, and on the other hand, it naturally also carried the idea of weakening the Wang Family's strength.

Don't look at the Lin and Wang families as if they were one Family; in the face of Zhou Family interests, all friendship was meaningless.

No wonder he was so heartless in abandoning the other party.

He even wanted to use Wang Yuwei to buy them some Time.

Lin Xin, hearing the other party's words, pursed her lips and remained silent.

She knew very well that what the other party said was true.

Even if they went back again, they would have no way to deal with that Qi Training Ninth Layer expert.

Because with Lin San's strength, he could no longer activate the power of that Talisman Treasure again.

'Zhou Luo isn't here either.'

At this moment, a wounded Qi Training Seventh Layer Cultivator said in a deep voice.

'Ah, the situation was urgent at the time, and I didn't find him. He probably already left,' Lin San said weakly.

Earlier, when he left, he specifically looked for Zhou Luo.

As a result, he didn't find him, and it was only then that he reluctantly left with Lin Xin.

'Then should we wait for him?' the other party asked.

'No, we must hurry back to Jiang City,' Lin San refused sternly. 'If he really escaped, he will find a way to return to Jiang City.'

Right now, although they didn't know why Liu Fuchen hadn't pursued them, just dealing with these pursuing enemies was already tough enough.

The top priority was to rush back to Jiang City.

Otherwise, if they were held up and waited for Liu Fuchen to act, resulting in their complete annihilation, the entire Jiang City could very likely fall into turmoil and chaos.
