Chapter 2028: Pursuit

"This man's crime of destroying the blood essence of my holy land is unforgivable. Hurry up and prepare your horses for me. I have put a blood lure on this man. I will chase him to the ends of the earth!"

Zhang Xuezhou had no other intention in turning back. When he came across such an open grassland area, it would be easier for him to ride his horse.

When you get tired of flying, change the horse to run; when the horse gets tired, change the person to fly.

As long as he traveled in Xiong Country under the name of a wizard from the Yedihe Holy Land, Zhang Xuezhou felt that he could repeat this operation over and over again until he crossed this vast territory thousands of miles away.

Riding on horseback on land would also allow Zhang Xuezhou to search more carefully for the various landmarks mentioned by Cai Ma. Perhaps at some point he would be able to overlap with a location indicated on Cai Ma's map.

He shouted loudly in the Xiehun tribe, completely ignoring what others said, causing a bunch of slaves from the Xiong country to lower their heads and shout in response.

In just a moment, the best mount of the Xiehun tribe was brought to Zhang Xuezhou, and there was also a spare mount accompanying him.

"Your Excellency the Mage..."

"This man is good at running and is heading west now. This mage will definitely chase him to the end. If you can follow him, follow him!"

Zhang Xuezhou jumped onto the horse.

He squeezed his legs together, and the aura of a monk emanating from his body made the tamed demon horse instantly obedient and run in the direction he directed.

It was a dark night, with only the light from the fires burning in the Xiehun tribe.

Zhang Xuezhou took a look at the pile of wood that was burning, and then looked at the bodies of men and women who had died due to the cut in rations. In the end, he just snorted slightly, then whipped his horse and rode away.

The demon horse under his crotch was a hybrid. Its appearance was not much different from that of an ordinary horse, but its muscles were bulging and it seemed to have excellent endurance and jumping ability.

The plain area is vast, and even though there are large gentle slopes under the mountains, Zhang Xuezhou is not worried about falling while riding slowly.

"This transformation technique can fool too many people!"

Zhang Xuezhou has not been in the Yide River Holy Land for a long time, but he has come into contact with people at the top level.

Zhang Xuezhou was familiar with how the top people spoke, how they treated the slaves, how these venerable monks dressed, and their speaking styles.

He had previously planned to sneak into the tribe at night to get some food and leave, but he never expected that it would cause so much trouble.

At this time, his red robe was fluttering, and more than a hundred people were following closely on horseback behind him.

If his destination was not in the Western Kunlun Mountains, Zhang Xuezhou felt that it would be very convenient for him to get free food and drink by using this robe.

None of the Xiong Nation's slaves doubted his identity. Firstly, these slaves had no courage to resist the Holy Land, and they would not even raise their heads when some hounds barked at them. Secondly, the class rules were much stricter than one might imagine. Not only did no one dare to wear the wizard robes of the Yedihe Holy Land, but even those who could wear such a bright red color were extremely rare. In the past, some slaves were even executed for wearing bright red clothes.

Due to various factors, Zhang Xuezhou was able to move forward smoothly.

He rode his horse in front, while some slaves behind him lit torches on horseback to provide illumination.

"It's a pity that the black and white horses cannot be seen in public, otherwise I could go back to the Yedihe Holy Land and invite the White Bone Master to restore the spiritual weapon!"

Riding a horse at night is very inefficient.

Of course, flying at night is not very efficient and it is very easy to lose your direction.

Unless one knows the direction completely, no normal person would choose to travel at night.

Only at this time could Zhang Xuezhou miss the advantage he once had with the black and white horses.

He thought about it and finally placed his hope on Rong Tianding, who was learning the inheritance of the corpse, hoping that his cousin would be able to control and recover one day. As for before that, Zhang Xuezhou had to rely on himself to see if he could find the right way to West Kunlun.

He was not familiar with the correct route to his destination, West Kunlun, but Zhang Xuezhou was familiar with the places he had flown and ridden. Even if he got lost and could not find West Kunlun, Zhang Xuezhou could at least find the way back to Chang'an City.

"Damn it, what school of thought does the one who stole the blood essence belong to? Why is he so fast that he is getting farther and farther away while I am chasing him on horseback!"

Zhang Xuezhou didn't care whether Mao Bei was good at long-distance travel or not, nor did he care whether the other party had any need to go west. He just kept shouting and pouring dirty water on Mao Bei.

Of course, throwing dirty water like this is of no use. After all, Mao Bei is far away in Huainan, which is tens of thousands of miles away from here. Few people would go to such a far place to seek justice.

But Zhang Xuezhou's shouting of pursuit and killing obviously had a good reason.

He rode his horse in front, attracting a group of slaves from the evil tribe to follow him with strange cries.

Until the sky cleared, they still hadn't found any results, and some people kept falling behind.

"Master Dongshan, I am very hungry. Can I find any food here?"

Zhang Xuezhou shouted loudly, which startled Dongshan Baichangxie Hunqu, who was chasing him from behind with strange screams, and he was stunned. He then kept raising his hands and looking around.

The vast grassland is endless and covered with weeds everywhere, so it is difficult to find any human settlements.

But after just over ten seconds, Xie Hunqu pointed his finger towards the mountainous area in the northwest direction.

"Honorable Master, there should be a tribe temporarily staying about thirty to fifty miles in this direction. We can go there to get food and replenish our strength," Xie Hunqu shouted.

"Oh?"

Zhang Xuezhou found the slave tribe of Xiongguo entirely by luck. Looking down at the ground from the sky, he saw a large number of cattle, sheep and horses, which made him realize that there were people living below. However, Xie Hunqu seemed to have found the direction by simply orienting himself.

"How can you be sure there is a tribe living there?" Zhang Xuezhou shouted.

"Sir, the wind blowing here now is the southwest monsoon. This monsoon does not cause any harm during the day, but the cold wind at night can freeze large tracts of grass to death. The further east you go, the heavier the disaster will be, and the further west you go, the lighter it will be. The situation is heavier in the south and lighter in the north. The northwest is the direction of our migration. I see some signs of being gnawed on the grass on the ground, which must have been left over in the past two days. We just need to follow this path and there is a high chance that we will find our brother tribe!"

Xie Hunqu answered honestly and confessed everything he had judged in full.

This made Zhang Xuezhou look at the grass on the ground for a few seconds.

He finally had to admit that this was a rather professional skill. At the moment, he made no difference which blades of grass he looked at. He was completely unable to tell which ones had been eaten recently and which ones could not be used as directional factors.

"go!"

Zhang Xuezhou whipped the demon horse he was riding and ran straight to the front.

Compared with these slaves on horseback, Zhang Xuezhou's riding skills had no advantage, but he was wearing a heavenly robe and could use the Wind Avoidance Technique to reduce the impact of wind and waves. The advantage of riding was not visible in a short time, but became extremely obvious after a long time.

At this time, he was still able to run at a relatively high speed, and the slaves of the Xiehun tribe behind him could only whip their horses hard to catch up.

From more than a hundred people at the beginning, there are only more than ten people following him now.

When Zhang Xuezhou rode his horse quickly, some people inevitably fell behind and could only look into the distance and had to rein in their horses.

But we did arrive at the place where Zhang Xuezhou could eat, drink and replenish his energy.

As long as he goes back and forth like this several times, Zhang Xuezhou will be able to directly reach the Dayuezhi Kingdom, the country with the largest territory outside the Yanmen Pass.

If you pass through Cheshi, Qiuci, Shule, Wusun, Kangju, Dayuan and other countries, you will reach the border of western Kunlun. If you head towards the highest snow-capped mountains, you will find the sacred land of Kunlun.
