eunuch

Chapter 22 Confrontation
The forest is densely covered with trees, and there is no way to go.

Ye Cheng and Shen Dacheng circled around before finding a gap to go down Fufeng Gorge.

After walking for almost two hours, it was already four or five o'clock in the afternoon.

The sun has set.

The temperature dropped further, and with the night wind blowing, it made people feel cold all over.

Ye Cheng is alright, with a high level of cultivation, Shen Dacheng has walked such a long mountain road, it can be said that he is suffering from hunger and cold.

The two fled in a hurry, Ye Cheng brought a package, and some other clothes and dry food were left on the carriage.

"Old Shen, put this in your mouth, remember, don't swallow it."

Ye Cheng took out a medicine bottle from the package, poured out a Qi and Blood Pill, and handed it to Shen Dacheng.

When Shen Dacheng saw the pill, his eyes widened.

He recognized it.

This is blood pill.

At least one tael of silver.

It is not unreasonable to be poor in culture and rich in martial arts.

Without sufficient money, it is very difficult to practice martial arts, and even such pills as Qixue Pills cannot be afforded.

"My lord, my lord, it's too wasteful to use this elixir for little ones."

He wasn't even an internal breath martial artist, so it was a bit of a waste to take Qixue Pills.

"Can you go on like this?"

Ye Cheng asked.

Shen Dacheng knew what Ye Cheng meant, so he silently took the pill and put it in his mouth.

As the slightly astringent smell of medicine mixed with saliva slipped into his throat, Shen Dacheng felt a warm feeling in his stomach, which gradually spread to his whole body.

Originally, he was a little exhausted and his hands and feet were cold.

But now my whole body feels warm all at once.

Keep going.

Shen Dacheng regained some of his physical strength, and his actions became much faster.

The two just drilled around in the woods, occasionally scaring wild animals.

"It seems that I'm afraid I won't be able to get out before dark."

Ye Cheng looked up at the sky.

Once it was dark, there was no way to continue walking.

Because there is no way to distinguish the direction, if there is a slight deviation, you may miss Xiangshui Town.

You have to find a safer cave and spend the night.

There are many ferocious beasts in this deep mountain and old forest.

He could now hear the inexplicable roar of beasts coming from a distance.

That is to say, he is a bold person with high skills and a high level of cultivation. Otherwise, if he were an ordinary person, he would really be trembling, for fear of encountering a beast, which would be dangerous.

Ye Cheng was about to speak, when suddenly, his ears moved, his face changed slightly, and he stopped immediately.

Seeing Ye Cheng stop, Shen Dacheng was about to ask, but found that Ye Cheng's face was solemn, and he shook his head in a motion to him, then he didn't say anything, just looked in the direction Ye Cheng was looking at.

But saw and heard nothing.

However, he knew that Ye Cheng was a highly cultivated warrior, so he must have discovered something.

Relying on Ye Cheng's keen sense of hearing, he vaguely heard something coming from behind.

Although the voice behind suddenly disappeared, he felt something was wrong.

"Could it be that people from the Yinshan faction have caught up?"

Ye Cheng directly untied the package tied around his waist and threw it to Shen Dacheng, tightly holding the sword in his hand, and his other hand was ready to grab the hilt and pull out the long sword at any time.

Minutes and seconds passed, and finally there were slight footsteps.

Along with the shaking of the branches, a figure in black robe walked out of it.

Since it was already evening, the sun was setting and the trees were dense, making the light in the woods quite dim.

But Ye Cheng has very strong eyesight, and he recognized the identity of the black-robed figure at a glance.

What made him a little relieved was that the only black-robed old man in the Yinshan faction seemed to be chasing him.

There were no other lurkers around.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to hide from his keen senses.

He was very puzzled. When he ran out, his cultivation strength was at most the acquired cultivation of the third rank. Who would have thought that the black-robed old man would personally come to chase him down.

It can be seen from this that the Yinshan Party attaches great importance to innate skills and absolutely does not allow news to leak out.

"I don't know if this person is carrying the piece of animal skin paper that records the innate skills?"

Ye Cheng's heart suddenly moved.

There was a little expectation in his heart.

In the end, he still couldn't let go of his thoughts on innate skills.

The old man in black robe first looked at Shen Dacheng with cold eyes.

Because Ye Cheng looks like a white-faced boy, harmless to humans and animals, and doesn't look like he has advanced cultivation.

Although Shen Dacheng was dressed in ordinary clothes and had a simple and honest face, he was tall and well-built.

Stared at by the black-robed old man, Shen Dacheng trembled, his face pale.

If it wasn't for the weakness of his legs, Shen Dacheng would have run away.

The black-robed old man was a little disappointed and turned his eyes away from Shen Dacheng, and landed on Ye Cheng, and re-examined.

If the Houtian warrior who killed his own disciple wasn't that big man, then this white-faced scholar would be the only one.

Such a young middle and triple acquired martial artist?
He was a little skeptical.

After all, Ye Cheng is too young.

Unless the talented fighters among the top martial arts forces are fully trained, otherwise, it is almost impossible to have a triple-middle-level acquired cultivation at such a young age.

But such a genius warrior must have a guardian by his side.

The old man in black robe didn't intend to talk nonsense at all.

With a movement of his body, he shot out, pulled out the sword in his hand, and turned into a little bit of cold light, covering Ye Cheng and Shen Dacheng beside him.

The fierce sword energy bloomed, tore through the air, and shredded the branches and leaves that obstructed the eyes.

Even though the two people in front of him didn't look like Zhongsanzhong Houtian warriors, the black-robed old man still used a real killing move.

"Back off."

Ye Cheng let out a low cry, pulled out his sword suddenly, stepped on the shadow step, and responded with ghost swordsmanship.

Ghost shadow swordsmanship is fast, cunning, and tricky.

In an instant, two long swords gleaming with cold light intertwined and collided rapidly.

The sharp sword energy entangled, cut, and vibrated, and as the energy diffused, the surrounding branches, leaves, and even trees shattered and collapsed.

After Shen Dacheng was also reminded by Ye Cheng, he crawled and rolled back with the package, narrowly avoiding the wave of energy.

Wait until he dodges far away, and then look at the original place.

Except for the two figures flickering quickly, and the sword energy pervading, there are broken and collapsed trees.

He had never seen such a scene before, it was simply astonishing.

huh huh huh.
The two swords intertwined again, and the terrifying true energy surged.

puff!
Ye Cheng accidentally brushed his arm with a sword qi, and blood flowed immediately.

This is the first time he has been wounded in combat.

It hurts.

One arm feels numb.

This is caused by the true qi characteristic of the black-robed old man.

Ding Deng Deng.

Ye Cheng suddenly backed up, flying into the air and landing on a bare tree branch.

With a flash of golden light in his mind, the wound that was still bleeding had completely healed.

It's just that there are still blood stains at the tear in the clothes, and outsiders can't see the truth at all.

In the eyes of the black-robed old man, Ye Cheng was already injured.

"At such a young age, you are already at the acquired level of Dzogchen. Unfortunately, your combat experience is too poor. No matter who you are or what your status is, if you kill someone from my Yinshan faction, you will never get out alive."

The old man in black robe said solemnly.

He originally thought that the white-faced scholar was at most a third-tier acquired cultivation base, but after a fight just now, he discovered that Ye Cheng's cultivation base was already on par with him.

What is missing is combat experience.

Just now he seized a flaw in Ye Cheng's sword technique, and crippled Ye Cheng's arm with a single blow.

The sword energy entered the body, and this arm was useless in a short time.

However, such a young Houtian Dzogchen warrior must have a difficult background.

Although I don't know what kind of power it is, why there is no innate-level protector around, and this person must not be allowed to go out alive, otherwise, the Yinshan faction will be completely ruined.

He is well aware of the horror of offending innate forces.

Any innate martial artist can kill him without leaving the Yinshan faction.

In this cruel world.

There is no room for pity or hesitation.

His Yinshan faction could use his innate skills to destroy the whole family of the Yang family, and even slaughtered hundreds of innocent businessmen and travelers.

The forces behind this young man will also destroy the Yinshan faction without hesitation for revenge.
