50: Beating up the River God! The River God of Jingyue is crying in desperation!
The Jingyue River God became increasingly cautious.
There were more and more Yao Race auras around her, most of them not strong, but their sheer number was astonishing.
It was as if all the Yao Race in the entire mountain range had gathered here.
The unease in her heart gradually deepened.
The girl's expression became hesitant; she had a feeling that continuing would lead to major problems!
For a Cultivator, intuition is generally not unfounded.
Many times, it might truly signify something.
The Jingyue River God was very conflicted. She stopped and began to seriously consider whether to return the way she came.
"Should I just say I didn't find him? Say I got lost? Or that my condition isn't good lately and I'm not suitable to make a move?"
She had already started thinking of excuses.
Just at this moment.
A great sense of crisis suddenly surged into her heart.
The Jingyue River God was startled, the braids behind her head began to tremble. She looked up at the distant high mountain and saw a flash of green light on the mountain, gone in an instant.
She'd been discovered!
What keen perception!
The Jingyue River God had been extremely careful all the way. Those ordinary Yao Race couldn't possibly have discovered her tracks.
Her exposure now must be due to the opponent's keen perception, and its range was very, very large!
To fight, or to retreat for now?
The Jingyue River God was somewhat hesitant for a moment.
However.
Xu Qing noticed that the Jingyue River God had discovered his movements, and a cold light flickered in his vertical pupils.
He made a decisive move, chanted the Six-Character Mantra, and stirred the power in the sky.
"Boom!"
A thunderous roar suddenly echoed in the mountain forest under a clear sky!
A dazzling bolt of lightning struck down from the sky, like a sharp sword, directly slashing towards the maiden hiding her aura in the jungle!
The lightning exploded, instantly clearing out a scorched open space in the jungle.
There was a deep pit in the middle.
The girl was not in the deep pit.
The moment before the lightning lit up above her head, her figure flickered, and her body transformed into a wisp of water mist and dissipated.
At the same time.
Hundreds of zhang away from the deep pit, the Jingyue River God's large eyes were wide and round, looking at the devastated jungle in the distance, her eyes filled with shock.
"Lightning Spell, an extremely authentic Lightning Spell!"
How could a Snake Yao from the deep mountains master such a Spell?
However, the Jingyue River God didn't care about that at the moment.
What she cared about was the power of that Lightning Spell; it was too astonishing. If she hadn't dodged quickly, she would have been injured directly!
A Snake Yao with only a thousand years of Cultivation Level, could it have such strength?
The Fengyang City God's smiling face from that time flashed in her mind.
The Jingyue River God immediately felt that she had been deceived!
"I knew something was wrong!"
The two braids behind the girl's head whipped around. Without any hesitation, she turned and ran.
This Young Lady absolutely does not fight battles she is not confident in!
She used her signature skill, her figure transforming into water mist, moving extremely fast, rushing out of the mountain forest.
"Boom!"
Another clap of thunder came from above her head.
"Again!"
The Jingyue River God gritted her teeth, turned her head, and saw a massive serpent covered in green scales rapidly chasing her in the distance!
The enormous serpent crashed through the jungle, carving out an empty corridor.
The green serpent's golden eyes stared at the girl in front, its gaze indifferent, as if looking at fish on a chopping board.
The Jingyue River God was already afraid of Snake Yao, and now seeing such a scene, she turned pale with fright and ran even faster.
Behind her.
Xu Qing used his Spirit Eyes to see through the girl's true nature.
"She's actually a Water-elemental Yao Race, and she has Incense Offerings Qi on her, upright and pure. Could she be a proper Water God?"
If she was a Water God, then she would be under the jurisdiction of the Great Gan Dynasty.
Wouldn't that mean she's with the Fengyang City God?
Recalling the memories from that Yin Messenger, Xu Qing roughly guessed the reason for her visit.
Most likely, the Fengyang City God invited her to deal with him.
Thinking of this, Xu Qing activated his magic power, and his speed gradually increased.
At the same time, he continuously activated the Five Thunders Incantation, bombarding the fleeing girl in front.
"Boom..."
Deafening explosions continuously echoed in the mountain forest.
All the Yao Race in the entire Taihang Mountain Range were startled.
The two thousand-year-old Great Yao escorting the spirit fruit to the Taihang Mountains heard the commotion and climbed to a high place to investigate the situation.
When they saw the terrifying power of the lightning falling like rain, they became even more awestruck by Xu Qing.
Any single bolt of lightning striking them would instantly kill them.
The fat and thin Protectors suppressed their distracting thoughts, appeased the other Yao Race, and explained the situation.
Upon learning that Snake King was chasing an enemy, the panicked Yao Race immediately calmed down.
With Snake King taking action personally, no further unexpected events would occur.
Currently, the Yao Race of the Taihang Mountains, Profound Yin Mountain, and Flower and Fruit Forest almost unconditionally trusted Xu Qing.
In their hearts, it seemed there was nothing Xu Qing couldn't accomplish.
On the other side.
The distance between Xu Qing and the girl was continuously closing.
The Jingyue River God's face grew paler, and fear emerged in her eyes.
At this speed, wouldn't she have to engage in close combat with that terrifying monster behind her!?
The thought made the girl's heart tremble.
The reason she overcame her fear of Snake Yao and agreed to come was because she thought Xu Qing only had a thousand years of Cultivation Level.
In terms of Cultivation Level, she had an absolute advantage and could easily win.
But now it seemed that the opponent's Cultivation Level was definitely not weaker than hers!
This was outrageous!
A River God who spent her days playing with fishermen's children in the river, versus a Great Yao who lived in the deep mountains and grew up amidst blood and cruelty.
How could she fight that? A fool would fight!
The Jingyue River God only cared about running, completely disregarding her image as a River God.
This made Xu Qing, who was chasing her, somewhat puzzled.
She was a Great Yao with over three thousand years of Cultivation Level, so why did she run without even a greeting when she saw him?
Could there be a trick?
Trying to lure him into her trap, with other masters ambushing ahead?
A hint of vigilance flashed in Xu Qing's eyes.
He temporarily stopped the Five Thunders Incantation, mobilized his magic power to use the Earth Hearing Technique, and took in all the movements within dozens of li ahead.
To Xu Qing's surprise, there was no unusual movement ahead.
That's not right!
The more Xu Qing thought about it, the stranger it became, feeling that there were too many oddities.
With a thought, a whistling strong wind rose from the ground.
Using the momentum of the wind, his speed suddenly increased by a large margin, and he instantly appeared behind the girl.
"Whoosh!"
Xu Qing wasted no words and immediately spat out a sea of fire!
Blazing high temperatures swept through the mountain forest, and dazzling flames enveloped a hundred zhang area of the forest.
The girl's face changed drastically; fire was extremely restrictive to her escape technique.
A green light illuminated her, enveloping her body, and she barely managed to escape the range of the sea of fire.
Even so, her aura still weakened somewhat.
With just one encounter, she had sustained a minor injury!
This guy is so strong!
This Young Lady is definitely not his match!
The Jingyue River God had a very clear understanding of her own combat strength.
The braids behind her head trembled, and she constantly pondered escape routes in her mind.
But after thinking for a long time, there seemed to be no way to escape this calamity.
Am I going to meet my end here today, This Young Lady?
For a moment, she was so anxious that tears welled up in her eyes.
