73: C73 Assassination

C73 Assassination

The Pulse Seizing Assembly came to an end.

Ye Xu and Yaoguang each took a Thousands Miles Snow and prepared their rations.

After bidding farewell to his father and the others, Ye Xu set off.

The Profound Dragon Sect was located in the Black Wind Forest in the west of Yunlan City, three thousand miles away from Yunzhong Town.

They rode the Thousands Miles Snow on their way, and they would arrive in ten days.

This was the first time Ye Xu went out. He felt the bright spring light and the beautiful scenery, and he couldn't help but feel that the air here was too fresh.

Yaoguang was also curious. She looked around and followed closely behind Ye Xu.

The two of them chatted and laughed. They were very relaxed. Suddenly, Ye Xu looked at a figure not far away and frowned.

Ever since Ye Xu became a Qi Refining Stage Ninth Level, his eyesight had become even stronger. With just a glance, he could tell that this was the patriarch of Wu Family, Wu Qing.

He could feel the surging killing intent. Wu Qing had come with ill intentions.

Ye Xu stood in front of Yaoguang, blocking her path. With a cold expression, he asked, "What do you want?"

"I will take your life!"

Wu Qing looked at Ye Xu indifferently and said ruthlessly.

"I don't have any grudges with you. You were the one who agreed to the life-and-death battle between me and Wu Dong. Do you want to avenge Wu Dong now?"

Ye Xu's face turned cold. He deliberately mocked, "Patriarch, is this all you have?!"

"Don't provoke me with words."

Wu Qing seemed to have been stabbed in the spot where he hurt. His expression gradually twisted, "If it wasn't for you, how could our Wu Family lose face to the point where everyone can bully us?"

"The Wu Family has done all kinds of evil things, and no one can stop them. This is something that will happen sooner or later."

Ye Xu sneered. Up until now, Wu Qing still didn't understand why the Wu Family had fallen. The real reason for the decline of the Wu Family was because he, the patriarch of the Wu Family, was overbearing and ruthless. He had done all kinds of bad things and had long caused dissatisfaction among the people.

However, he blamed this incident on Ye Xu. It was ridiculous.

"Shut up!" Wu Qing said ferociously, "You are about to die, yet you still dare to argue!"

Ye Xu felt the murderous intent rising up, and he made a prompt decision.

He rode his horse towards the depths of the forest and shouted to Yaoguang, "Quickly go and find my father!"

"Young master!"

Tears flashed in Yaoguang's eyes as she ruthlessly turned her head to look for reinforcements.

She understood what Ye Xu meant. Ye Xu was holding them back. If she went to find help, she would be able to escape at the very least!

Yaoguang's heart was in pain. If something really happened to Ye Xu, she would not live either!

Seeing Yaoguang run in the opposite direction, Wu Qing coldly snorted.

Wanting to find reinforcements also required time. Did Ye Xu really think that Wu Qing wouldn't be able to kill him during this period of time?

Ye Xu dared to look down on him like this!

Wu Qing kicked off the ground with his feet, and like an arrow leaving the bowstring, he rushed towards Ye Xu.

The Thousands Miles Snow ran wildly in the forest, but the mixed environment in the forest greatly reduced its speed.

"What a fool, you still dare to ride your horse into the forest."

Wu Qing looked at the black shadow on the horse's back, and his eyes flashed. A flying sword flew out of his hand and pierced through the horse.

The Thousands Miles Snow let out a sorrowful cry and fell to the ground with its four limbs raised.

Wu Qing came to the side of the horse with a proud smile on his face. When he opened it, his smile froze.

There was no one at all. He only saw a block of wood holding onto his clothes!

He had been tricked!

Wu Qing was furious. The aura of a Heavenly River Stage Eighth Layer surged out, and with a single palm, he knocked down a patch of forest.

Ye Xu hid behind the tree trunk and took a deep breath.

He calmed his mind and released the God Devouring Martial Spirit.

The improvement of his six senses allowed him to avoid Wu Qing's pursuit even faster.

Yaoguang had already gone to the Ye Family. What he needed to do now was to stall for time!

If he faced a Heavenly River Stage Eighth Layer warrior head-on, he would die very quickly.

Looking at the poisonous powder and all kinds of tools in his spatial ring, Ye Xu couldn't help but laugh.

He was really grateful to Sword Venerable Immortal for his "treasure." It had given him a chance to live when he was being hunted down.

Wu Qing was furious. As the patriarch of the family and everyone respected him, he had actually been fooled by Ye Xu!

He walked forward angrily and suddenly saw a black shadow.

"Die!"

Wu Qing exerted strength in his feet and was about to charge forward when he suddenly felt something strange under his feet.

The leaves and branches under Wu Qing's feet instantly collapsed. He immediately reacted and spun and jumped to the side.

A meter tall hole appeared, and it was pitch black.

This was a trap!

"Ye Xu!"

Wu Qing looked up and saw that Ye Xu was nowhere to be seen. He angrily slammed his palm on the tree trunk, and in an instant, dust fell from the sky.

This powder was very fragrant and very itchy. Wu Qing was startled. He immediately consumed a Detoxification Pill, but it was useless.

The increasingly intense itch constantly wrapped around him.

"This is just some petty tricks!"

Wu Qing felt his blood boiling. He had been fooled again and again, and the itch on his body was getting stronger and stronger.

However, he still had to suppress his anger and be wary of his surroundings.

Ye Xu hid in the forest far away from Wu Qing.

Ye Xu saw with his own eyes how Wu Qing patted down the powder that Ye Xu had prepared beforehand. He couldn't help but laugh.

He originally thought that this ambush would not be very useful, but he did not expect Wu Qing to be hit.

That powder was exchanged by Sword Venerable Immortal with a weapon that he had refined. It was a kind of medicine that attracted demon beasts.

Hence, the Detoxification Pill was useless.

And the demon beasts that were attracted over were also very interesting.

Ye Xu felt delighted when he thought of the terrifying scene that Wu Qing was about to face.

With every step Wu Qing took, he would use his sword to probe the surrounding environment. He was very careful and aggrieved.

Suddenly, a strange sound was heard.

This sound came from afar and was accompanied by a cool breeze.

Wu Qing raised his head and his expression changed drastically.

It was a Flame Poisonous Bee!

This was a type of small demon beast. If it moved alone, it could be killed by a child.

However, the most terrifying thing was that the Flame Poisonous Bee never moved alone!

You could imagine thousands of yellow-brown poisonous wasps flying towards you, and then stabbing you with sharp black venomous needles.

One must know that the Flame Poisonous Bee in this world had been irrigated by the spiritual energy. They were even bigger than an adult's fist.

Wu Qing's face was filled with fear, and he ran forward without even turning his head.

However, the Flame Poisonous Bee seemed to have recognized him as it chased after Wu Qing in groups.

Wu Qing understood the reason behind the powder.

He was so angry that he cursed. His left and right toes quickly touched the ground, but because he was not familiar with the terrain, his speed was much slower than when he was on flat ground.

There were a few strong Flame Poisonous Bee stuck to his body, fiercely stabbing Wu Qing's exposed skin.

Very quickly, countless large bumps appeared on his face and neck. Every bump was red, carrying a sharp pain.

Wu Qing was extremely angry. He used his wild palm to kill the poisonous wasp. He dodged while killing, and even took off his clothes. Finally, he got rid of the swarm of wasps.

This was too detestable!

He had been delayed by the swarm for so long. Ye Xu must have escaped!

Wu Qing looked at the corpses of the bees on the ground, and his expression was so gloomy that it seemed like a drop of water would drip down his face.

This time, he had lowered his status to personally kill a junior, but he had still failed. It was simply shameful.

He thought that the other people from the Ye Family had also rushed over. Now that things had come to this point, he could only return to his family and make plans.

Otherwise, if he was caught by the people of the Ye Family on the spot, even if he was the patriarch of the Wu Family, it would be difficult for him to escape.

After Wu Qing made up his mind, he turned around and took a step forward.

The air was instantly filled with a murderous aura.2

In a flash, countless tree leaves were pierced by the arrows. The rain of arrows that covered the sky and earth directly attacked Wu Qing!

Wu Qing's pupils instantly enlarged, and his eyes were filled with disbelief.

Ye Xu actually did not escape!
