Chapter Nineteen: Go Back.
As soon as the transmission talisman lit up, Huo Zhaojing's voice came from inside: "Have you found any disciples of the Chongming Sect?"
"In reply to Senior Brother." Hearing this, the four of them hurriedly said respectfully, "Senior Brother, as expected, we found the Mei family's motorcade on the Meishan Trail. The disciples of the Chongming Sect accompanied us to escort the man in the blood sedan.
, just beside the motorcade.”
Huo Zhaojing said with satisfaction: "Very good! It will take me about an hour to arrive. You continue to follow the convoy. If the direction is different, please report it at any time."
"Keep your distance and don't be impulsive."
A company of four claimed it was.
The light of the transmission note quickly went out.
At this time, they noticed that the convoy began to accelerate, so they immediately accelerated and followed closely behind. However, they followed Huo Zhaojing's instructions and did not dare to get too close. They always maintained a distance that they thought was safer.
※※※
Half an hour later.
Since the Mei clan suffered heavy casualties in previous attacks, and they were carrying three winged wolves and yellow spring trees, even if Mei Keqiu personally took the long whip from the tribe's hands and frequently whipped the pulling ghosts, the ghosts would still send out bursts of
It roared in pain, but its speed increased to a limited extent, and it was still unable to get rid of the pursuer.
Jin Sumian said anxiously: "Pulse Master, they are still behind!"
Pei Ling nodded slightly. He had been following them for half an hour, but he did not dare to attack them directly...
If his guess was correct, the disciples from Tianjiao who came this time should not be very strong.
Most likely, they are about the same strength as Dou Wan.
He didn't dare to kill him, but he kept following him and refused to leave. There must be strong support behind him and he was catching up!
For example, the senior disciple of Chun Tan whom the female cultivator of Tiansheng taught, Huo Zhaojing!
Thinking of this, Pei Ling's mind raced, and he quickly said to Jin Sumian: "You guys keep moving forward!"
Jin Sumian was startled, and before she could react, she saw a flash of blood, the Vampire Escape Technique was activated, and Pei Ling had already escaped towards the rear.
Yu Xuezhao continued to follow the convoy. It was very dissatisfied. The dog owner asked Jin Sumian and the others to protect it, but it could not sleep. The most important thing was that the three people did not take the initiative to kowtow to it!
Behind them, the four people from the Tiansheng Cult saw Pei Ling walking out of the Blood Puppet sedan. After saying a few words to the female cultivator beside him, they looked at them and the figure disappeared immediately, leaving a bad impression.
Just as they were about to retreat, they saw a bloody shadow appearing near them almost instantly like a dream. In the blink of an eye, Pei Ling showed no expression on his face, showing no concealment of his murderous intent. He unsheathed his long sword and was already standing behind them!
The expressions of the four people all changed, and they ran away so fast!
Without any hesitation at the moment, they took off their legs almost at the same time and fled in four directions.
At this time, Pei Ling had already activated the [Spirit Eye Technique] and immediately saw that the auras of these four people were very similar to the auras of the three previous disciples of the Tiansheng Cult. It was unmistakable. These four people were all disciples of the Tiansheng Cult!
Whoosh!
The vampire's escape technique worked again. After catching up with one of them, Pei Ling immediately chopped off the Nine Soul Sword in his hand!
puff!
The heads flew off, and before the corpse could hit the ground, Pei Ling burned the corpse cleanly with a wave of cold marrow fire.
Immediately afterwards, he chased the second person...
After a while, the remaining three members of the Tiansheng Cult were also killed by Pei Ling.
He guessed correctly. The Tiansheng Cult disciples who caught up this time were slightly weaker than Dou Wan and the other three. He easily defeated the four of them.
After putting away the four people's storage bags, Pei Ling didn't have time to clean up the scene and immediately caught up with the convoy.
As soon as he saw Pei Ling returning, Jin Sumian immediately asked: "Pulse Master, how is the situation?"
"They are indeed disciples of the Tiansheng Cult, but I have already dealt with them. However, they must still have backup!" Pei Ling said in a deep voice, "We have been delayed for so long just now, and their backup will probably catch up soon!"
Hearing this, Jin Sumian frowned. They needed to transport three winged wolves and yellow spring wood, and these two items could not be put into the storage bag.
Moreover, their flying magic weapon cannot hold these two items.
The current speed is already extreme. If there are more people from the Tiansheng Cult chasing after him, it will definitely be another fierce battle.
Not to mention anything else, if anything that needs to be escorted is damaged in the aftermath of the fight, the mission will also fail!
"Pulse Master, what should we do now?" Jin Sumian asked,
Pei Ling thought for a moment and said: "Two ways, one is to set up the formation on the spot and wait for Tianshengjiao to come over and deal with all the pursuers once and for all!"
"Second, go back!"
There are three roads from Henglufang City to Meishi that can be taken by people with strength below Jiedan.
The Rose Mountain Trail they chose now is the middle of the three paths.
On the left is the habitat of the ghosts in the alchemy stage, and on the right is the desperate situation filled with miasma. No one except the alchemy monks dare to set foot in these two places.
However, when looking at the map before, Pei Ling noticed that although the three roads were separated by these two places, they were not completely inaccessible to each other.
The traces of the fight in the water have been erased.
It is unlikely that the Tiansheng Cult could determine their location so quickly.
In that case, instead of sending four disciples who are not as powerful as Dou Wan and the other three to take the lead, they would directly pursue them with strong reinforcements!
Therefore, the reason why the other party caught up with the convoy so quickly was probably because the troops were divided into three groups and pursued separately!
His reinforcements also randomly chose a route to search. If they went the wrong way and were informed by an accomplice, they would wait for an opportunity to change routes.
In fact, when setting out, the reason why Pei Ling chose the Meishan Trail was also to make it easier to change routes when something unexpected happened!
At this moment, he was recalling the map and analyzing, "With our current position, if the reinforcements from the Tiansheng Cult have received the news, they will chase us. Or they can change the road from the Yinfengkou, which is about a hundred miles ahead, to block our way."
"Either we can return to Henglufang City from the original path and pursue us from behind."
"Based on the distance we've traveled so far, if we catch up from behind, it won't take more than a day or so. It's simply impossible."
"So if there is no extraordinary reason, the people of Tiansheng Cult must be waiting for us at the Yinfengchou!"
"In this case, it would be safer for us to go back."
After hearing this, Jin Sumian nodded without much hesitation and said: "Yes. Lord Pulse, I will notify the team right away!"
After all, she is a disciple of the Jiansang lineage. As the leader of the lineage, Pei Ling must obey the leader's arrangements when encountering problems. It is only natural and right.
At this moment, the carriage shrouded in mist was galloping quickly through the undulating mountains.
Huo Zhaojing held a glass cup in his hand and was taking a sip of spiritual wine while watching the rapidly passing scenery, when his face suddenly darkened!
He felt that the four junior brothers and sisters who had just discovered the whereabouts of the Chongming Sect disciples were already dead!
"Click."
The glass cup was instantly crushed into powder.
Huo Zhaojing's face was gloomy, but his heart was very calm.
Chapter completed!
