27: Chapter 27 Liuyun City

A middle-aged male Cultivator with green hair, wearing a red python-patterned robe, sat on a yellow turtle. He leaned forward, his gaze burning as he stared at the Lotus pond.

"Old Ancestor, it's bad!" A Disciple of the Liu Family flew into the courtyard in a panic.

Rumble, rumble—the Liu Family Disciple was moving too fast and couldn't brake, rolling five times before crashing into the edge of the Lotus pond.

Splash—

"What is it? Why are you in such a panic?" The Patriarch gently raised his fishing rod and said calmly, looking at the red carp on the hook.

"Old Ancestor! The Young Lord has left the city to hunt down a scoundrel!" The Liu Family Disciple knelt before The Patriarch in fear.

"Oh? What is the opponent's strength?" Young Master Liu Yun pinched the red carp, admiring it repeatedly with a joyful look on his face.

"A male at the Middle Stage of the First Realm, and a female at the Early Stage of the First Realm." The Liu Family Disciple answered truthfully.

"Hahaha! Just two pieces of trash!" Young Master Liu Yun glanced at the red carp, squeezed it hard, and blood flew everywhere, his eyes fierce.

"My son is at the Early Stage of the Second Realm, and with the blessing of his Magic Treasure, he can reach the Middle Stage of the Second Realm! Can they kill him?"

Young Master Liu Yun wasn't worried at all. After all, Young Master Liu Yun had a protective lock left by him, so even if something happened, he could locate his position.

...

"What should we do? He's getting closer!" Yu Xiaotang looked at the approaching Young Master Liu Yun and said anxiously.

The opponent was at the Early Stage of the Second Realm, and as the son of a city lord, he surely had many Magic Treasures. To finish him off, they had to bring out their life-saving Magic Treasure.

"Yu Xiaotang, attack him! Make him distracted!" Lin Kuang took out recovery fluid and sprinkled it on the Five Thunder Vibration Drum.

Squeak, squeak—

The Five Thunder Vibration Drum was very happy, feeling as if it had been reborn.

"Sword Rainbow!" Yu Xiaotang gathered her strength and attacked Young Master Liu Yun.

A blue rainbow several meters long struck toward Young Master Liu Yun.

With a light wave, he neutralized Yu Xiaotang's attack.

"Hahaha! The more you struggle, the more excited I get!" Young Master Liu Yun licked his lips and said excitedly.

Young Master Liu Yun thought this was Yu Xiaotang's tactic against him. Within Liuyun City, he didn't even know how many times he had entered the middle gate; he hadn't expected a female Cultivator to dare provoke him.

"Wait until I cripple your man." Young Master Liu Yun's gaze twisted, and he smiled evilly: "Let him see the gap in our talent and your licentiousness!"

After speaking, Young Master Liu Yun pointed with his left hand, the sky darkened, and a giant sword appeared.

The giant sword crashed down with thunderballs.

Lin Kuang frowned, immediately channeled his Qi, and the Five Thunder Vibration Drum instantly teleported them a hundred feet away.

Young Master Liu Yun snorted coldly and controlled the Flying Sword to fly out.

Two arcs of light followed one after another. The Disciples of the Liu Family also lost their target because the two were too fast, and they had no choice but to stop where they were.

Young Master Liu Yun was more and more surprised the more he chased. He was clearly at the Second Realm, and with the speed boost from his treasure, every time he was about to catch up to that bastard, he would teleport and create distance again.

The more this happened, the more excited Young Master Liu Yun became. After all, only Fourth Realm Cultivators could teleport! Lin Kuang must have a Magic Treasure on him!

It should be about time! At this distance, his subordinates shouldn't be around. Lin Kuang smiled slightly, and a golden light shot from Lin Kuang's forehead toward Young Master Liu Yun.

Young Master Liu Yun smiled contemptuously, and a purple thunderball shot from his fingertip, tangling with the green ball.

Boom—

After Young Master Liu Yun saw clearly, his smile froze. The thunderclap sword struck him like lightning, blowing his white robe apart instantly and revealing a golden bellyband.

The thunderclap sword turned into white mist and disappeared into the air upon touching the bellyband.

Lin Kuang sighed softly; it was as he had thought, there was a defensive Magic Treasure.

The blow just now made Young Master Liu Yun break out in cold sweat. Even if he were at the Early Stage of the Second Realm, he wouldn't have been able to block that strike. If he didn't have the bellyband given by his dad, he wouldn't have been able to block it at all.

Just like that, Young Master Liu Yun chased, Lin Kuang flashed, pulling and tugging, a day passed.

What to do? Now that I still have to carry a burden, I can't use my full strength at all.

"How about we land in the forest ahead? Isn't the Secret Realm nearby?" Yu Xiaotang wasn't stupid; she knew she was a burden.

Lin Kuang didn't say a word, aimed at the forest, and dove right in.

Lin Kuang also knew that running away forever wasn't the solution; trying to see if he could defeat him was the only chance.

Moreover, the Liuyun Forest was much larger than the dilapidated forest, and this Liuyun Forest was surrounded by a powerful earthly Qi, which reduced the range of Divine Sense inside, which was also advantageous to him.

Young Master Liu Yun had long wanted to cut off Lin Kuang's legs with a sword and then watch himself ravage his Dao Companion; humiliating others gave Young Master Liu Yun a special pleasure.

Originally, The Patriarch had told Young Master Liu Yun not to enter Liuyun Forest. There was natural earthly Qi inside, and a single eruption of earthly Qi could turn a Third Realm Cultivator into ashes.

But he couldn't stand it anymore. After all, he couldn't forget the look of disdain Yu Xiaotang had for him. If only he could make her beg for mercy.

Young Master Liu Yun's lower instincts took control and he also entered Liuyun Forest.

Inside Liuyun Forest, there were towering ancient trees everywhere, as well as crawling grass-attribute Spirit Beasts.

This place was shrouded in fog all year round. In this environment, there were many powerful mutated plants and earthly Qi that could erupt at any time.

"Green Demon Vines!" Yu Xiaotang saw a granular emerald green vine sucking the blood of a cow.

"What is that?" Lin Kuang also noticed. The vine was just wrapped around the cow's calf, and the cow didn't resist, letting the Green Demon Vines suck its blood.

After the earthly Qi erupted, a substance called Devilish Qi would appear from below. It was highly toxic and would make Cultivators go crazy; this kind of poison had no cure.

However, this was a gas that some Spirit Beasts and plants particularly liked. This gas could allow them to evolve; the more Devilish Qi they absorbed, the stronger they evolved, and this evolution had no upper limit.

"Don't use Qi! Not even a bit! Green Demon Vines are very sensitive to Qi." After Yu Xiaotang finished explaining, she reminded him.

They walked slowly through the forest.

Young Master Liu Yun had been using Spells to walk on the ground inside the forest, and his speed was very fast. He didn't see the Green Demon Vines at all. The Green Demon Vines underground were slowly approaching Young Master Liu Yun.

"It's coming!" Lin Kuang rubbed his chin; he felt Young Master Liu Yun getting closer and closer behind him.

After a while, Young Master Liu Yun caught up. He was now disheveled, his eyes red. He had had enough of this place; it was dark and smelly, and insects flew down from time to time while he was flying.

All of this was because of Lin Kuang!

"Go to hell!" Young Master Liu Yun flew into a rage after seeing Lin Kuang, and a hundred-meter giant sword appeared over Lin Kuang and the others' heads.

"Ah..." The Green Demon Vines wrapped around Young Master Liu Yun's thighs and began to crawl all over his body like snakes.

Young Master Liu Yun attacked the Green Demon Vines like a madman, but the Green Demon Vines seemed endless, and there were more and more of them. The Green Demon Vines also secreted a special liquid that could decompose Magic Treasures.

The bellyband was decomposed by the liquid bit by bit. Young Master Liu Yun only had this one defensive Magic Treasure, and its disappearance meant his death.

Young Master Liu Yun had no choice but to take out the life-saving Magic Treasure given by his father. It was a long sword, and this long sword could unleash the power of the Peak of the Third Realm, but it could only be used once.
