Let's search around for a bit. If we can't find him, forget it."

The young man in gold robes calmed the anger in his heart. Miaozhi Hall had considerable influence in the county town, and soon found out who had taken the Ziling Grass. He was only at the second level of Qi refinement now, and the Ziling Grass was also very beneficial to him.

He didn't let the twenty top martial artists follow him, and he even gave up the carriage, all because he was worried that too much commotion would disturb the other party. Unexpectedly, despite chasing all the way, he still lost them.

This person's attack was so ruthless, it seemed like they were not a friendly visitor. On a raised mound of earth in the forest, Lu Xiaotian crouched in the bushes, watching as the man in the straw hat had been frozen into an ice sculpture. There wasn't much emotion in his heart.

"Brother Situ, there's no need to get angry. If this person hasn't gone far, we should be able to catch up." The girl in red touched a small embroidered pouch at her waist.

A fluffy, gray mouse appeared on the ground in a flash of white light.

“Sniffing Demon Rat! I didn't expect you to still have such a spirit beast.” The young man in the golden robe said with delight.

“Although it's not much help in battle, it can occasionally be useful, so I raised one. As long as this person is within five miles, I can find them.” The woman in red smiled softly.

The gray rat, slightly larger than an ordinary wildcat, zipped away at incredible speed. It shrieked as it bolted toward a thicket of grass and vanished in the blink of an eye, covering dozens of paces in a flash.

“This person is very bold, actually hiding over there to watch us.” Seeing the gray mouse’s reaction, the woman in red scanned the bushes not far away with her eyes and immediately smiled.

Oh no! Discovered, Lu Xia Tian was startled. He didn't expect this huge gray rat to have such a sensitive nose. It found him as soon as he was let out. If he had known, he would have stayed further away.

"It seems like I've reached a dead end, with mountains and rivers blocking my path. If you don't want me to go in, then come out yourself!" The youth in golden robes let out a breath of relief. He thought things might be troublesome, but unexpectedly, they were resolved so quickly.

“I wonder what brings the two of you to me” Lu Xia Tian forced himself out from behind the bushes. The gray rat stayed several dozen feet away, not daring to come closer. It didn't seem very strong, so he felt a little relieved. After all, there were already two of them, and if there was also a spirit beast, things would be truly terrible.

The young man in gold saw that Lu Xiaoteng's aura was weak, and he immediately let down his guard. He even lost the little bit of politeness he had before. He burst into laughter, "I thought it was some wandering immortal who was walking around freely in Liangzhou. Don't you know that Liangzhou belongs to our Situ family This young master is in a good mood today. Hand over those three Purple Spirit Herbs and get out of Liangzhou obediently."

Lu Xia Tian's face darkened as he said, "A masterless spirit belongs to whoever has the fate to possess it. If I don't give it up, do you plan on forcibly taking it"

"Hehehe............" The woman in red seemed to have heard the funniest joke, taking a good while to catch her breath.

“Since you don't know what's good for you, don't blame me for being ruthless.” The young man in gold scoffed, too lazy to waste any more time talking to Lu Xiaotiān. He directly chanted a spell. Five or six ice spikes appeared one after another.

The woman in the red dress crossed her arms and stepped back, watching the commotion with amusement.

“Roar!” a booming voice echoed, and a powerfully built leopard shot out of the jungle with lightning speed.

The young man in the golden robe and the woman in the red dress were both startled. They hadn't expected to find a demon beast hidden here, or rather, a spirit beast. A demon beast couldn't possibly have come here to attack them, but had ignored the weaker Lu Xiaoteng.

The youth in the golden robe hurriedly controlled an ice shard and shot it towards the leopard.

Boom, boom...

The leopard ran, dodging the icicle attacks. Several trees beside it were blown into ice chips.

As the young man in golden robes stopped his attack, Lu Xia Tian felt a wave of relief wash over him. At the moment those ice spikes appeared, he had felt closer to death than ever before. If it had been an ordinary warrior's attack, he would have had confidence in dodging it, but facing those ice spikes, there was a feeling of inescapable doom. Fortunately, he still had the spiritual beast by his side, otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

"This beast is so fast!" Seeing several ice spikes being dodged by the leopard one after another, the young man in golden robes changed his expression. With a flick of his left hand, he sent out a talisman that transformed into several small fireballs in a pin shape to meet the leopard.

"At the same time, he shouted to the woman in red, 'This leopard is quite formidable. Don't just stand there! Help me hold it down, and you go kill that boy.'

"

"Ow!" The leopard roared, dodging two fireballs but getting blasted by the remaining one. Its skin was torn and its fur on its back turned black. The young man in golden robes smirked and took out another talisman. Fortunately, he had talismans on him; otherwise, facing this leopard would be truly dangerous. Casting spells takes some time to prepare. But talismans can be unleashed with a wave of the hand. Even if it's just a basic spell, its lethality is limited, but it was enough to injure this leopard.

"Good!" The woman in red nodded, just about to cast a spell, when suddenly she felt numbness in her legs, and this numbness was spreading throughout her body. The woman in red looked down, only to see two green flying ants crawling on her leg at some point.

At the same time, more than ten small green ants flew out from the grass and leaves, rushing towards the young man in gold.

“Shadow Ants!” The young man in golden robes was greatly alarmed. Although a single shadow ant’s killing power wasn’t great, its paralyzing effect was very strong. Even if someone in the middle stage of Qi refining was bitten a few times, their qi circulation would be disrupted, and they wouldn’t be able to cast spells as smoothly. As for those in the later stage of Qi refining, facing a dozen or so wasn’t much of a threat, but facing a swarm of over a hundred shadow ants, without powerful means, they could only flee in despair. As for him, a cultivator at the second level of Qi refining, facing this kind of thing, he could only keep his distance and avoid being touched by them.

More than ten small green ants flew in from all directions, leaving no room to dodge. The young man in the golden robe hurriedly released all the fireballs he had in his hand. Fireball talismans were the cheapest and relatively easy to manufacture. However, he didn't carry many with him. The Situ family didn't have any talisman masters, and after leaving望月城, one less was one less. His father was afraid he would use them recklessly, so he only gave him a few.

Boom....

Aerial shadow ants were blown to pieces one after another by the burning fireballs. Lu Xiaoteng's face turned pale. Controlling these shadow ants required divine consciousness, and as they were killed, his divine consciousness was also affected. Fortunately, the leopard's intelligence was extremely high, so it only needed to give orders. Otherwise, he would have exhausted himself before being killed by the enemy.

However, a few fireballs were not enough to kill all the shadow ants. The woman in red was accidentally hit, and under the dual threat of the shadow ants and the leopard, the man in gold had no time to cast spells. He drew out a green sword from his body and fled in panic, ignoring the life and death of the woman in red.

Through his fight with the old man in black, Lu Xia Tian understood a truth: for enemies, one must eliminate them completely, otherwise, there will be endless troubles. This young man in gold moved to take his life, he wasn't a good person to begin with. Lu Xia Tian's face turned cold, he commanded the remaining five shadow ants to continue harassing the young man in gold. While the leopard ferociously fought him, keeping him occupied.

After a stick of incense, taking advantage of the golden-robed youth's sword slicing through a shadow ant, the leopard seized the opportunity when he was vulnerable and bit off the golden-robed youth's right arm holding the sword.

"Spare, spare my life.... " The young man in golden robes cried out, collapsing to the ground and shrinking back, blood staining the ground crimson.

"Roar!" The leopard bit through its throat, and the young man in golden robes fell silent.

Lu Xia Tian roughly swept through the belongings of the young man in the golden robe. The green sword looked good, much sharper than the short iron sword at his waist. Besides the green sword, there was also a storage pouch.

Opening the bag, Lu Xia Tian was overjoyed. Inside, there was a bottle containing five Qi Gathering Pills and a book titled "Elementary Spells Compendium." He flipped through a few pages at random. It contained spells from the Golden Element, Wood Element, and other Five Elements. The black-robed elder had refused to teach him any spells, but unexpectedly, he obtained one from this young man in golden robes. With this ancient text, he could now learn spells on his own. What a pleasant surprise! This fierce battle was well worth it.

There was also a bottle of medicine in the storage bag, its purpose unknown. He put everything away and looked at the woman in the red dress with his eyes.

“No, no! Don’t kill me!” At this time, the woman in red was bitten several times by the small green ants and had not yet recovered from the paralysis. Although her body could still move a few times, she had temporarily lost her fighting ability. Only her consciousness was still clear. Seeing the young man in gold die, the woman in red was instantly terrified, her face pale as paper. She never expected that this seemingly ordinary boy who was only at the first level of Qi refining would have such a powerful leopard spirit beast, and so many shadow ants. Moreover, he had arranged the shadow ants around beforehand to prepare for an ambush. With her second-level Qi refining strength, she could only subdue that sniffing rat.

He also didn't know if the other party had any more companions. At this time, his spirit was damaged, and the leopard was also seriously injured. If there were any more enemies appearing, their situation would be quite dangerous. This place is not suitable for a long stay, it's better to find a safe place to rest first and then talk about it. The previous gray rat was scared and ran away, this woman still has some use. Lu Xiaottian found a vine and tied the woman in red, and controlled several small green ants to rest on her body, ensuring that she could be subdued at any time. Only then did he safely carry the woman in red into the forest and came to the hidden cave before, blocking the entrance with rocks.

With a bang, Lu Xia Tian threw the woman in red onto the ground. The woman in red cried out in pain from the impact.

"Can't you be a little gentler" the woman in red said with a pitiful expression.

"Don't put on airs in front of me, or don't blame me for being rude. What's your name, and who was that young man in the golden robe I killed How did you find me And what about that gray rat"

Lu Xia Tian had no intention of showing mercy to the woman. To begin with, her clothing was frivolous and revealing, a type he didn't find appealing. After suffering such a loss at the hands of the black-robed elder, how could he be swayed by this kind of woman

“My name is Lü Bifeng. The young man in the gold robe is named Situ Jing. He belongs to the Situ family. That gray rat is my spirit beast, Huiao Yōu Shǔ. It has no fighting power, but its sense of smell is extremely sensitive. Within a certain range, it can find anyone based on their scent.”

Seeing that Lü Bixifeng's beauty had no effect on Lù Xiatian, she could only honestly say.

"Sniffing Demon Rat!" Lu Xia Tian let out a breath. His understanding of the cultivation world was practically blank. If he had known about the existence of Sniffing Demon Rats, he would never have given the other party this opportunity.

"What is the Situ family like How many people are there in their family"

"I can tell you everything I know, but after you get the answers you want, you have to let me live." Lü Bifeng bargained.sformed into Azure Dragon and fought with the purple centipede demon for a while. Then, he successively removed the spatial binding power from those true immortal level werewolves in the Demon Suppres...
