Yun Lintian didn't reply. He slowly got up and rushed toward the Wandering Forest.
"Little Brother Yun!" Lei Yongzheng was startled by Yun Lintian's sudden action and wanted to pull him back. However, Yun Lintian's speed was too fast. In a blink of an eye, he had already arrived before the forest.
Meanwhile, Yu Qiao and Gu Wei glanced at each other briefly. A strange light could be seen in their eyes as if they secretly communicated.
"Eh? What is he doing?" In the far distance, the petite woman said in surprise when she saw Yun Lintian's action.
On the side, the man frowned deeply and said. "I will contact Master now."
Following that, he quickly made complicated hand seals and murmured something.
At this moment, Yun Lintian bravely stepped into the Wandering Forest. A chill immediately washed through his body and soul as if he had stepped into a desolate icy abyss.
All of the hairs on his body instantly stood on end as tremendous pressure bore down upon him.
"Is that you, Boss?" A familiar voice suddenly resounded, attracting Yun Lintian's attention.
When Yun Lintian looked over, he saw Tu Feng step out of the tree shade and look at him with a disbelieving expression.
Yun Lintian's heart trembled slightly, but he knew it was an illusion. However, perhaps because of guilt in his heart, he still walked toward Tu Feng.
"It's really you, Boss!" Tu Feng became excited and rushed toward Yun Lintian while opening his arms.
Yun Lintian didn't dodge and let Tu Feng hug him. "It's good to see you again."
While Yun Lintian hugged Tu Feng, Lei Yongzheng became anxious and rushed forward. In his sight, Yun Lintian was actually embracing the air in a daze. Obviously, he had fallen into the illusion.
When Lei Yongzheng moved, Yu Qiao and the others also moved. Instead of helping Yun Lintian, Yu Qiao and Gu Wei surprisingly launched deadly attacks at Lei Yongzheng's back.
Feeling danger coming from behind, Lei Yongzheng was startled for a split second and hurriedly executed his movement technique while protecting himself with a lightning barrier.
Boom!
Lei Yongzheng was sent flying by the impact while coughing up blood. Even though his reaction was fast, Yu Qiao and Gu Wei were top powerhouses after all. It was impossible for him to completely avoid it. Not to mention he was sneaked upon.
While Lei Yongzheng was sent to the distance, Bai Ji and the other three had already launched long-range attacks toward Yun Lintian.
Several profound lights immediately tore the space apart and rushed forward, threatening to blast Yun Lintian into pieces.
Smiles appeared on the faces of Bai Ji and the others as if they had already accomplished their goal.
In that instant, they suddenly saw Yun Lintian turn his head to look at them. His eyes were clear without any confusion like before. At the same time, a mocking grin could be seen on his lips as if he had expected this scene beforehand.
The next moment, the Heaven Piercing Sword silently appeared in Yun Lintian as he raised it high before swinging down vertically, producing an ear-piercing sword hum to fill the entire space.
BOOM!
The golden arc that trailed along the sword immediately cut the incoming profound lights, making them scatter away.
The expressions of Yu Qiao and the others changed drastically when they saw this scene.
Before they could react, Yun Lintian had already arrived before Bai Ji while wielding the sword toward him.
Puff!
Bai Ji's body was cut in half directly without any resistance. His eyes were still widened in disbelief as his consciousness gradually drifted to endless darkness.
The other three behind him reacted and tried to escape. However, Yun Lintian's speed was several times faster than theirs. He appeared like a ghost and beheaded them effortlessly as if he was cutting worthless grass.
This scene immediately sent a chill running down Yu Qiao and Gu Wei's spines… It's over! They have completely miscalculated it!
"Cough!" Lei Yongzheng spat out a mouthful of blood while staring at Gu Wei in confusion. "Why?"
He didn't understand why his good brother betrayed him like this.
Gu Wei took a deep breath, and his previous amiable expression was completely replaced with an icy face.
He offered no explanation and turned to look at Yun Lintian. "How did you know?"
Yun Lintian wasn't in a hurry. He shook the sword slightly to get rid of bloodstains while slowly explaining. "It's nothing. I am a cautious person by nature. Do you think I will unconditionally trust strangers like all of you just because you know Senior Lei?"
"Not to mention, all of you have revealed some flaws from the beginning."
"Flaws?" Gu Wei frowned deeply.
"Yes, flaws." Yun Lintian smiled faintly. "You said that the Chaotic Town was destroyed by a young man, and you happened to go out at that time. No matter what reason this person had, I wouldn't leave right away if I were him. Instead, I would calmly wait for others to come. After all, it was the one and only town in this place."
He raised two fingers and said further. "So, there were two possibilities that all of you could still be alive. The first one. That person merely destroyed the town out of a whim and didn't want to waste time pursuing all of you."
"Second. All of you had submitted to him in order to save your own lives… Well, I am willing to believe the second one more. After all, I don't believe that person would be so boring to destroy the town because he simply wanted to."
Yun Lintian looked at Yu Qiao and said. "Seriously, your acting is actually good. I almost believed that you have no ulterior motive."
"As for why all of you want to kill me. If I guess correctly, it is that person's instruction, right?… Unfortunately, he probably doesn't know much about me."
The expressions of Yu Qiao and Gu Wei turned solemn upon hearing this. Everything Yun Lintian said was pretty much correct. If they didn't know before, they would have thought Yun Lintian was in the scene with them.
Yu Qiao took a deep breath and said. "Good. No wonder he wants to kill you so much."
She sighed and said helplessly. "I cannot escape death in the end, huh?"
After witnessing his power, she didn't think she could escape Yun Lintian's grasp today.
Yun Lintian asked. "Did he tell you his name?"
