At this time, Chu Lingyun had already left Mount Kongsang for more than a month. In another half a month, he would be able to reach the Swamp of Death in the southwest. Thinking of this, his flying speed increased a bit.
However, just as he was passing by the mountain range, he suddenly heard a cry of surprise from below. Then, light shone from all directions in the forest, and more than ten people surrounded him with immortal swords and magic treasures.
Half a month ago, Lu Shun and Li Xun of the Burning Incense Valley had led more than twenty disciples from the Burning Incense Valley in the southern border to search for Chu Lingyun's whereabouts. However, it was unknown whether their speed was too slow or Chu Lingyun's flying speed was too fast. Every time they rushed over after receiving news of Chu Lingyun, they would come up empty-handed.
At this moment, Li Xun and Lu Shun's expressions were very ugly. For more than ten days, they had brought more than twenty outstanding disciples of the Burning Incense Valley to track the traces left by Chu Lingyun. However, they were always left behind by Chu Lingyun. It was no wonder that their expressions were not good.
That night, Lu Shun called Li Xun over. His face was ashen as he said,"Martial Nephew, that kid's flying speed is too fast. We can't keep chasing after him.”After more than ten days of tracking, Lu Shun was extremely angry. He even temporarily put aside some of his opinions about Li Xun and put down his status to discuss with Li Xun.
Li Xun already had the intention of doing Lu Shun a favor. After hearing Lu Shun's words, he was angry and a little proud. After pondering for a moment, he said,"Martial Uncle Lü, why don't we split up into two pairs? One pair will chase after us while the other pair will go to the King Village not far away from the Swamp of Death to stop Chu Lingyun. This way, I don't believe that he can escape."
When Lu Shun heard Li Xun's words, he thought for a moment and felt that it was reasonable. However, he was still a little hesitant. He had fought with Chu Lingyun before and knew some of Chu Lingyun's background. He understood that the other party's cultivation was not low. He was a little worried that if Li Xun met Chu Lingyun, he would not be able to deal with him.
Lu Shun was not concerned about Li Xun, but he knew that Li Xun had left the mountain because of him. If anything happened, he would not be able to explain it to his mysterious Valley Master. He glanced at Li Xun and finally reminded him,"Martial Nephew, this is a good idea. However, if we split up like this, I don't know if we can deal with Chu Lingyun. If…"
Lu Shun didn't continue, but Li Xun was intelligent by nature. How could he not understand the meaning behind Lu Shun's words? He was clearly doubting whether his strength was enough to deal with Chu Lingyun. Li Xun felt a nameless fire in his heart. This time, he was helping him to kill Chu Lingyun, but the other party was doubting whether he could deal with a yellow-mouthed brat. How could Li Xun, who was already proud, endure this?
The anger in Li Xun's eyes naturally could not be hidden from Lu Shun. However, other than a hint of disdain flashing across Lu Shun's eyes, he said indifferently,"Martial Nephew, don't misunderstand. I'm just worried that Chu Lingyun is cunning and full of tricks. I'm a little worried that Martial Nephew will fall into the other party's scheme without noticing."
Li Xun suppressed the anger in his heart. After all, Lu Shun was his elder, and he could not flare up at him. However, he transferred the hatred in his heart to Chu Lingyun. He decided that he would kill Chu Lingyun first and let Lu Shun look at him in a different light. With this thought, he immediately turned to Lu Shun and said,"Martial Uncle Lü is thinking for the sake of the younger generation, so I naturally won't blame Martial Uncle. Since Martial Uncle agrees with my opinion, then I will go to the King Village in the Swamp of Death to wait for Chu Lingyun. Martial Uncle will rush over from behind. Let's work together, and Chu Lingyun can forget about escaping again."
Naturally, Lu Shun knew that Li Xun was feeling indignant. However, after reminding him, he no longer cared about Li Xun's matters. At this moment, he only wanted to kill Chu Lingyun as soon as possible. Therefore, after hearing Li Xun's words, he nodded and agreed.
Ever since Li Xun and Lu Shun had parted ways, he had led half of the disciples of the Valley of Incense to take a shortcut, day and night. Three days later, they finally arrived at a mountain range thousands of miles away from the King Village.
Li Xun waved his hand to stop everyone and let them rest. After all, they had been on the road for three days, and even cultivators like them were tired. There were 12 people in Li Xun's group, including Li Xun. Among the remaining 11 people, Fei and Zhang Yan were the leaders. Both of them had been cultivating for more than 100 years, but they were considered to be in the younger generation in the cultivation world. Their cultivation was only second to Li Xun, and they were both at the early stage of Jade Pure Realm Level 7.
After a night of training in the mountains, the next day, when the sun rose high in the sky, the exhausted people of the Valley of Incense gathered together again and surrounded Li Xun, Fei, and Zhang Yan. Li Xun was talking to Fei and Zhang Yan, and the two of them kept nodding as Li Xun talked.
Finally, Li Xun stood up and said loudly," Junior Brothers, we came out this time to kill the demon who was spying on our Valley of Incense. Master had previously instructed me to bring Chu Lingyun's head back, we…" Before he could finish his heroic words, a clear whistle suddenly came from the distant sky, followed by a burst of loud laughter.
Li Xun was furious, and he stood up and looked into the distance. Fei, Zhang Yan, and the others also stood up. They could tell that the owner of the laughter was a self-cultivator, and his cultivation level was not low. Finally, a green light flew over from the sky, and in the green light, there was a young man laughing.
When the green light was not far away from them, Li Xun and the others finally saw the figure of the young man. Li Xun was shocked and then overjoyed. He turned around and said to everyone,"This person is Chu Lingyun. Let's go up, we can't let him off this time!"
It was Chu Lingyun. His cultivation had improved again because of the first volume of the Tomes of Arcane, so he laughed loudly. However, he did not expect to attract Li Xun and the others.
The Valley of Incense had been pursuing Chu Lingyun for more than a year. They had used all their methods to get rid of this youth who knew their secret. Even most of the self-cultivators in the world knew that the people of the Valley of Incense were hunting a youth. It was rumored that this youth was a disciple of the Dark Sect and had killed countless people. He had even sneaked into the Valley of Incense with evil intentions.
These righteous people were not surprised to see the Burning Incense Valley chasing after a young man from the Dark Sect. In their hearts, it was probably natural to kill demons and devils. As one of the three righteous sects in the world, the Burning Incense Valley chasing after a disciple of the Dark Sect would not attract criticism, but would only be praised for their nobility.
There were only a few people who were suspicious that the Valley of Incense would go to such great lengths to kill a youth. However, not long after, the Penglai Immortal Sect, a large sect in the East Sea, also issued a killing order, and their target was the same youth.
It was said that this young man from the evil cult had killed countless people in the East Sea. In the end, the previous sect master of Penglai Immortal Sect, Patriarch Qingkong, personally captured him. However, this young man from the evil cult, Chu Lingyun, was cunning and resourceful. He actually used some unknown method to kill Patriarch Qingkong, a famous senior of the righteous path.
