Chapter 567: Chapter 566 Stop in Your Tracks
Liu Zheng walked along the road, suddenly stopping in his tracks because he sensed something unusual.
Liu Zheng couldn’t help but turn his head to look towards the left.
He saw that not far off, in a mountain forest, faint sounds of a fight could be heard.
"Is someone fighting? And they seem to be two experts in a duel!" After hearing the sounds of the fight, Liu Zheng frowned and muttered to himself.
"Could it be that those two guys are fighting over some Spiritual Medicine?" Liu Zheng couldn’t help but speculate.
"Who cares, anyway, it’s none of our business. Let’s hurry on our way!" Bai Ling, seeing this, quickly urged.
Upon hearing this, Liu Zheng nodded and continued on their way...
Before long, Liu Zheng felt that the sounds of the fight had grown even more intense.
"It seems these two fellows are quite powerful. Maybe I should hide and enjoy the show for a bit." Thinking this, Liu Zheng immediately ran towards the depths of the mountain forest.
"Whizz~"
"Boom~"
Suddenly, a burst of powerful attacking sounds exploded from within the forest.
Instantly, a cloud of dust spread out, obscuring everyone’s vision.
Before long, a man and a woman tumbled out of the dust disgracefully and landed on the ground.
"Who are you, and why did you ambush me?"
The woman, upon seeing the man opposite her, couldn’t help but ask furiously.
"Hehe~" The man on the other side revealed a cunning look on his face, then with a strange laugh, he said, "My lady, I am a bandit of this mountain, tasked with hunting spiritual beasts. If you want to keep your life, leave behind all your belongings!"
After saying this, the man’s gaze fixed on Bai Ling with ill intentions.
"What?"
Hearing his words, Bai Ling’s lovely face changed slightly.
"Don’t worry, little sister, big brother will protect you!" The man opposite her, seeing her reaction, couldn’t help but move forward with a lecherous laugh, stretching his tongue to lick his lips as he spoke.
"You..."
Bai Ling, seeing this, involuntarily stepped back a few paces, her face filled with fear and panic.
"Haha... Don’t worry, my lady! I am a man who cherishes beauty; how could I do anything inappropriate to you? Just hand over all your valuables, and I can spare your life!"
Upon hearing this, the man couldn’t help but laugh sinisterly.
"Pah! Pah! You scoundrel, trying to take advantage of our young miss, you deserve to die!"
The maidservant, upon hearing this, immediately retaliated and spat out her words fiercely.
"Hmph! Ungrateful wretch, since that’s the case, I shall fulfill your wish!"
The man, upon hearing this, snorted coldly and raised his fist, launching a ferocious punch toward the maidservant.
"Be careful!"
Bai Ling, seeing this, cried out loudly, wanting to save the maidservant.
"Hmph! Both of you, go to hell!" The man, seeing Bai Ling attempting to save the maid, immediately darkened in his expression, shouted threateningly, and his fist’s power suddenly increased several-fold, smashing toward the two of them.
"Ah... Miss, save me!" The maidservant, seeing the bad turn of events, cried out desperately.
"Stop it! What do you think you’re doing?" Bai Ling, seeing this, also shouted angrily.
The man, upon hearing this, showed no reaction, still smiling coldly as he rushed towards Bai Ling.
At that moment, Bai Ling’s figure suddenly flashed and disappeared from the spot.
"Boom~"
A sudden gust of wind came sweeping over, brushing against the man’s cheek, causing him to be momentarily taken aback.
"Hmph! Daring to mock me?! You’re seeking death!"
After that, the man, feeling humiliated and angry, roared loudly and slammed his palm into the air.
"Boom!"
But his palm hit nothing; a faint, transparent barrier appeared in the void, blocking the man’s attack.
"Hmm?"
"Impossible?"
The man’s expression changed abruptly upon seeing this, his eyes filling with an astonished terror.
"How could this be? How could that little girl have broken through to the early stages of the celestial strength? Isn’t her cultivation talent a bit too high?"
"How is this possible?"
"This... How is this possible?!"
"Could it be... Could she be that little girl?"
"Good heavens! Did I actually strike that little girl?!"
"I’m done for! I’m going to be in big trouble, I’ve actually injured this little ancestor!"
"No... Could it be? Has that little girl’s strength already broken through to the realm of Terrestrial Immortal?"
"No, she has just stepped into the realm of Terrestrial Immortal, she’s no match for that little girl!"
...
At this time, the three men accompanying the man began to discuss among themselves.
"What? You’re telling me her strength just broke through?! How is that possible! That girl looks to be only fourteen or fifteen years old, how could she have broken through so quickly!"
"This... We have no idea either!"
"Then... What do we do now?"
"No good! We must notify our senior brother as soon as possible and ask him to help take care of that little girl!"
"Right, let’s go seek our senior brother now!"
"Yes, let’s move quickly!"
"Wait for me!"
...
Hearing the group’s discussion, the man’s face also showed a trace of urgency.
Immediately after, he turned his head and instructed his subordinates, "You guys go back and report to master this instant, say that the little girl has broken through to the realm of Terrestrial Immortal, and have him send someone to rescue at once!"
"Yes, Uncle-Master!"
Upon seeing this, the men’s complexions changed slightly as they promptly bowed and said.
No sooner had the words fallen than the men hastily turned and left.
Seeing this scene, the man breathed a sigh of relief.
"Little girl, you can’t escape! Even if it’s your grandfather coming forth himself today, I’ll still make sure he has no grave to hold his body!"
The man then snickered sinisterly, closing in on Bai Ling.
At this moment, Bai Ling, seeing the situation, couldn’t help but reveal a deep worry on her delicate face.
"Mis... Miss... What do we do? That guy is too strong, we simply can’t beat him..." The maid, seeing this, immediately couldn’t help but speak with a crying face.
"Miss... Miss, think of something quick! Otherwise, we really will die at his hands... Wah wah..." Another maid, seeing this, also began to weep.
"I have no solution either; this time I’m really done for!" Bai Ling, seeing this, couldn’t help but sigh deeply.
"No, I can’t just sit here and wait for death!"
Bai Ling, upon seeing this, couldn’t help but clench her fists, thinking to herself resolutely.
"Little girl, no need to struggle anymore, today I will destroy your Dantian!"
At that moment, the man was only five meters away from Bai Ling. With a cold laugh, he threw a punch.
"Pff—" Immediately, a mist of blood sprayed from Bai Ling’s chest, scattering onto the ground.
Bai Ling’s delicate body shook violently once and then, she fell to the ground, unconscious.
"Miss! Miss... Are you alright?" With this sight, the woman couldn’t help but scream out, her eyes filled with sorrow.
"Miss, you must be okay! Otherwise, we won’t be able to survive either!" Seeing this, another man quickly came forward to support Bai Ling, then couldn’t help shedding regretful tears.
"Haha! Little girl! I told you, you won’t escape today!"
"Hmph! No matter how eminent your status, it’s worth nothing before me!"
"Today, you are destined to die without a doubt!"
