Emperor of the North Chapter 16

Chapter 16 - Escape from the siege

"You're courting death!"

The cold beauty saw that Li Mu had suddenly barged in again, she raised her hand and was about to attack.

"Leng Qingcheng! Don't misunderstand, the people of Dahua Sect are here to kill you! I am here to inform you! "

Li Mu saw that the other party was about to make a move and quickly spoke up.

"Dahua Sect! How could they possibly find this place? I understand now, it must have been you, right? "No wonder you know my name!"

The cold and beautiful girl's expression became even colder when she heard Li Mu mentioning the Dahua Sect. The snow-white cold light in her hands flickered, and Li Mu felt his heart palpitating as it was about to be hit by a cold aura.

"No!" They have a gold-nosed rat demon beast and the ability to track the scent of humans. They have come in pursuit of their scent. "

Not long ago, I offended you, young lady, and after I left, I encountered seven Houtian realm disciples of the Dahua Sect. When I heard that they wanted to kill you, I knew that the young lady was injured and would not be able to defeat the seven of them.

Li Mu shouted.

"And the result?"

Leng Qingcheng frowned, as though he was considering the authenticity of Li Mu's words, and did not immediately make a move.

"As a result, I fought against seven and killed three of them. Originally, I could also block the remaining four, but the other side had someone surnamed Xu who had a piece of Lightning Symbol. That symbol was so powerful that I almost died under him."

"If it wasn't for my tyrannical body and my weapon blocking part of the power, I probably wouldn't have been able to see you. I was lucky enough to not die, so I relied on my rather strong movement technique to escape from their encirclement and came to report to you."

Li Mu said with a face full of righteousness.

"The Lightning Symbol actually brought out such a rare item, they sure think highly of me."

Hearing the two words "Lightning Symbol s", Leng Qingcheng frowned, fear written all over his face.

"That's right!" That thing is so powerful. If I wasn't lucky, I would have died at their hands already! "

Li Mu nodded in agreement.

"In that case, not only can I not kill you, I have to thank you!"

Leng Qingcheng's face was expressionless, and the way he looked at Li Mu was devoid of any emotions.

There's no need to thank me. Hehe, as long as you don't kill me, I just don't like them. I just don't like the way you talk about a beauty like you, it's fine if they want to kill you, but those unlucky ones actually want you to give them a good time before you die. This is the kind of thing that I hate the most in my life.

Li Mu righteously coaxed, his eyes inadvertently sweeping across the other party's beautiful curves. His face immediately flushed red, the blood in his body tumbled, and he almost had a nosebleed.

"Humph!" Don't think that I will believe you just because you say it like that. I won't bother with you in the face of such a strong enemy … You! Just take another look and I will gouge out your eyeb.a.l.l.s! "

Seeing Li Mu's flushed face staring at his, Leng Qingcheng's jade face flushed red in anger. She did not kill Li Mu immediately, but instead took off her snow-white dress and quickly put it on.

At the same time, Senior Brother Xu and the other three had already reached the edge of the lake.

"Senior Brother Xu, that brat jumped into the pool. He should be hiding in the lotus flower field, what should we do?"

A Dahua Sect disciple asked.

"Humph!" Could it be that this brat's brain is broken? Is he trying to escape while hiding in a place like this? Does he think that we are just decorations?! "Go down and search!"

The Senior Brother Xu sneered sarcastically.

Hearing that, the three disciples all took out their weapons and jumped into the water, quickly swimming towards the lotus.

"They're coming down! I heard from them that you were hit by some Great Blazing Palm, how is your recovery going? "

When Li Mu heard the conversation between the Senior Brother Xu and the others, and saw that the three disciples had already left the water, he became a little nervous.

"My Essence hasn't recovered yet. I can only use 30% of my strength, and I can't travel for too long."

It was unknown if it was because of the great enemy, but Leng Qingcheng did not have as much killing intent towards Li Mu as before, but he still had that ice-cold look on his face.

"Then what should I do? If I hadn't been injured then I might have been able to escape with you. But now that I'm injured like this, I can't even circulate my true essence."

Li Mu heaved a long sigh. He originally wanted to borrow Leng Qingcheng's strength to force back four opponents, but he did not expect the other party to actually be weaker than him, to the point where even moving would be difficult.

"Humph!" If you weren't injured, you would have already run away. Why would you run back here? "

Leng Qingcheng sneered.

"How can you say that? Wasn't it because of you that I got into such trouble? How ungrateful!"

Li Mu rolled his eyes, in his heart he admired his intelligence.

"For me? Humph! I'm afraid you'd rather die. "

Leng Qingcheng scoffed.

"Is there any point in saying this now? "It's better to hurry up and think of a way to escape!"

Li Mu didn't want to argue with the other party over this issue and changed the topic.

"Escape? If the other party didn't have a Lightning Symbol, I naturally would have a way but I didn't expect Yuan Feng to actually bestow such a great treasure to them. I don't have a way either. "

Leng Qingcheng shook his head in frustration.

"Hmm? What is this? "How could there be such a rich fire spirit origin energy contained within!"

Leng Qingcheng suddenly noticed the Herba Corydalis Sinensis on Li Mu's back, and asked curiously. "Yes."

"I found the Herba Corydalis Sinensis by accident."

At the same time, he held Zhan Qianqiu in his hands. He did not want to wait for death, even if he was unable to escape, he wanted to pull two people down with him.

"Herba Corydalis Sinensis, it's actually this! "If that is the case, I am somewhat confident that I will be able to escape."

Leng Qingcheng said in pleasant surprise.

"What do you mean, what do you mean?"

Li Mu turned his head around upon hearing this. Being able to escape was naturally the best result for him.

"I have a way to forcefully absorb the pure vitality from the Herba Corydalis Sinensis and draw it into your body. I can tell that your movement technique is not bad, and with the support of sufficient vitality, you should be able to bring me along and leave."

Leng Qingcheng explained.

"If you can really do it, it's not impossible. It's fine with my other abilities, but I'm quite confident in my agility skills!"

Li Mu was overjoyed.

"Sure!"

As Leng Qingcheng spoke, he grabbed onto the Herba Corydalis Sinensis with his jade hand, while at the same time, snow-white True Essence surged out of his hands and wrapped around the Herba Corydalis Sinensis.

Li Mu clearly felt the temperature around him plummet. At the same time, he discovered that traces of vitality could be seen with the naked eye being sucked out from the Herba Corydalis Sinensis by Leng Qingcheng.

"Come here!"

Leng Qingcheng said with a serious face, and upon seeing that, he immediately went over.

Leng Qingcheng's body flashed with a white light, and his other hand rested on Li Mu's shoulder.

Li Mu felt a surge of pure Qi inside his body, he was extremely familiar with this kind of Qi, it was the kind of Qi that he usually used to refining his Herba Corydalis Sinensis's juice.

However, it was different from when he was refining it himself, the energy that was being injected into his body was very calm and there was no longer the usual tyrannical feeling. Li Mu thought about it and understood that it was definitely because of the cold attribute energy that had been neutralized by Leng Qingcheng.

With the support of his Essence, Li Mu immediately suppressed the injuries in his body.

"They're here!"

Li Mu suddenly shouted out, the three of them were already not more than 10 metres away, and seeing that, he immediately carried Leng Qingcheng, and was about to use river crossing step to slip away.

"My sword! "Bring them along."

Leng Qingcheng suddenly said.

Li Mu swept his hand across the water and discovered that there was a sheathed sword stuck not far away. Without hesitating, he stabbed the sword into his waist and released the river crossing step at the same time.

"It's that brat and Leng Qingcheng! Senior brother, quickly chase them!"

The three disciples from Dahua Sect were startled when they saw Li Mu suddenly escape, and immediately shouted out.

When the Senior Brother Xu, who was originally standing by the side with a smile on his face saw this, instantly lost all smiles. With an angry shout, he turned into an afterimage as he hurriedly chased after him.

"Your movement technique isn't bad. Even I might not be able to beat you in movement techniques."

Being carried on Li Mu's back, Leng Qingcheng's jade face reddened slightly.

"Hehe, it's merely an insignificant skill. How could I possibly be on par with you? It's not even worth mentioning."

After escaping from the encirclement, Li Mu's mood was slightly better. When he smelt the faint fragrance emitted from Leng Qingcheng's body, it immediately caused his blood and energy to roil, and his heartbeat to accelerate.

As if he had felt Li Mu's strangeness, Leng Qingcheng's hand that was on Li Mu's shoulder loosened all of a sudden, interrupting the transmission of the vitality.

"Holy s.h.i.+t!" What are you doing! "

Without the support of his vitality, Li Mu staggered and almost fell to the ground.

"If you dare to think any further, you won't be so cheap next time!"

Leng Qingcheng's face was ice-cold. After he finished speaking, he once again placed his jade palm on Li Mu's shoulder.

Li Mu was speechless, but since he had to borrow the opponent's power, it would be inconvenient for him to argue with him too much.

"This won't do Senior-apprentice Brother. If this goes on, we'll be thrown off sooner or later. I wonder what movement technique that boy is using to be able to move so fast. It's as if he's walking on flat ground in this mountain area."

The three Dahua Sect disciples behind Senior Brother Xu saw that Li Mu was getting further and further away from them, and shouted.

"Release the signal detonator!" Tell the other disciples to surround them from all sides! I don't believe that he can hold on for long! "

Senior Brother Xu gritted his teeth as he chased after her.

"Boom!"

A bright firework rose into the air and exploded, turning into a simple word in the sky.

"What is that!"

Li Mu, who had already left the four Dahua Sect s several kilometers behind, asked in puzzlement when he saw the word "change" in the sky behind him.

Leng Qingcheng said with a bitter face: "That is the signal of the Dahua Sect! This is bad, looks like the disciples that Dahua Sect have sent out this time are not limited to just these few! "

"How did you provoke them!?" We were actually attacked like this! "

When he heard that there were still a lot of people from the Dahua Sect s, Li Mu almost fainted. He had escaped from the cave with great difficulty, but who would have thought that he would encounter such a thing again.

"You don't need to worry about me. You only need to bring me away from here!"

Leng Qingcheng said coldly, as if he did not want to explain anything to Li Mu.

"Tch!" Who would know that if it wasn't for me being merciful and trying to save you, I wouldn't have ended up like this and not knowing how to be kind! "

Li Mu muttered unhappily, his speed did not slow down at all, in a flash, he was already more than ten meters away.
