Lord of Bones

Chapter 660 Danger Surrounded
"How dare the Tianyun Sect... take action in Yaodu?"

Li Yuan was guessing secretly in his heart, frowning.

He changed his mind and realized that although the Tianyun Sect was powerful, they would never cause trouble openly in the core area of ​​Yaodu, such as Yaoxuanyun Tower.

Once their deeds are exposed, the hundreds of Wenhe families will undoubtedly be pushed to other sects, which will not be worth the loss.

"This is definitely not the style of the Tianyun Sect." Li Yuan took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.

Various possibilities flashed through his mind quickly, and he finally set his sights on the forces in Yaodu.

"Yao Xuanyun Tower... twenty-one real controllers..." he whispered to himself.

He didn't really have much interaction with these forces, let alone offend them.

Suddenly, a name flashed through his mind: Zhu family of Zheju.

"I heard that the person in charge of the Zheju Zhu family in Yaodu has just been rotated recently. Could it be the new person in charge, Zhu Xianyi?" Li Yuan's heart moved.

Recalling his battle with Zhu Xianyi, he not only won a large amount of Earth Yuan Stones, but also killed several of Zhu Xianyi's capable men.

If Zhu Xianyi really holds a grudge and wants to seek revenge, it is not impossible.

Li Yuan's face was solemn: "If it was that old man..."

He remembered that Zhu Xianyi seemed to have reached the peak of the Half-Step Transformation Realm.

Even if his strength has greatly increased now, he may not be able to gain any advantage from him.

Although he has two great assistants, Xiaobai and Tengqing, it is a bit of a waste of their talents to use them on those who are not in the Huawen realm.

Li Yuan looked out the window again. The streets were still bustling with people, but behind this prosperity, there were endless crises hidden.

He must leave this dangerous place as soon as possible.

The Teleportation Square and the Flying Square are the two fastest exits from the city, so there must be people from the Zhu family in Zheju secretly monitoring them.

He couldn't take the risk of going there, otherwise once his whereabouts were exposed, he would be in an irretrievable situation.

In Li Yuan's mind, countless thoughts were flying like leaves in the wind.

He sighed softly and whispered, “Forget it, instead of sitting here and waiting to die, it’s better to leave the city directly.

"Zheju Zhu Clan has complete control over Yaodu. The longer we stay, the more danger we will face."

After making up his mind, Li Yuan's body suddenly trembled, merged into the void, and disappeared in the room.

In a deep alley over a hundred feet away from the inn, the space suddenly began to ripple subtly, as if the surface of the water was gently brushed by the breeze, and Li Yuan's figure appeared out of thin air like a ghost.

He looked around. The lightning flashing in the sky shone through the narrow alley and onto the ground, creating mottled light and shadows.

With a flash of his body, he was out of the alley and moving quickly through the streets. Every step he took was light and agile, as if he was passing by like a gust of wind.

Li Yuan always paid attention to the movements around him, feeling the breath in the air, and judging whether there was anyone watching him.

He didn't dare to use space teleportation too often in the city. Once the space fluctuations were too large, it would attract the attention of the strong people in the city.

In this place where powerful people abound, any slight abnormality may attract the attention of the city's controller and cause some unnecessary trouble.

.........

"It was discovered so quickly?"

Dozens of breaths later, a short, slightly hunched old man with wrinkles on his face and sharp eyes quietly appeared in front of the inn where Li Yuan had previously lived.

He looked around. The lights in the inn were bright, but the atmosphere was unusually quiet.

The old man sneered, his voice was low and gloomy, as if it came from the underworld: "You two, quickly notify everyone and search for this boy everywhere in the city.

"Once you discover it, report it to me immediately."

Behind him, two old ladies holding snake-shaped canes stood respectfully. One of them reminded in a deep voice, “Elder Xianyi, this boy is now in Yaodu. If we monitor him without authorization, it may arouse suspicion and dissatisfaction from other families.

"If they ask..."

The old man frowned slightly when he heard this, but then relaxed again.

He glanced at the old woman calmly, and his voice was filled with an unquestionable majesty: "We only need to search for his traces in secret. We won't do anything, so why should we be afraid of others' doubts?
“Even if other families knew about this, they would only speculate.

"As long as you keep your mouth shut and refuse to admit it, what can they do to me?"

After saying that, he swung his sleeves, and with a hint of coldness and murderous intent, his body suddenly shot out.

The figure left a trail in the air, like an arrow shot from a bow, and in the blink of an eye it flew dozens of feet away from the inn.

The two old women watched the old man leave, looked at each other, and then took out their jade slips and began to send messages to inform other tribesmen.

.........

Half an hour later.

Li Yuan walked under the dim street lights and turned into a quiet alley alone.

The alley is lined with towering mottled stone walls, with mosses and vines intertwined at the corners.

Suddenly, a biting chill swept over like a cold wind, and a strong sense of crisis surged in Li Yuan's heart.

He turned around suddenly and saw a black shadow approaching rapidly in the night, as silent as a ghost.

"The aura of the peak of the Half-Step Transformation Realm... Zhu Xianyi... No, it's not that old man." Li Yuan's heart sank.

He could feel the powerful aura emanating from the black shadow, and its speed was so fast that it far exceeded his understanding of the peak of the Half-Step Transformation Realm.

"They actually dared to take action in the city. Could they be the experts from Shadow Blade Tower?"

Shadow Blade Tower is one of the most mysterious assassination organizations in the Wen River Basin.

The Yuanzhe in the building are all known for their speed and their actions are secretive. It is said that there are several powerful people in the Huawen realm hidden in the building.

As the black shadow gradually approached, Li Yuan finally saw the other person's face clearly.

He was a thin man in black, his face covered with a black veil, revealing only a pair of eyes flashing with cruelty.

In his hand was a sharp dagger, flashing coldly in the moonlight, as if it could cut through the air at any time.

Li Yuan's heart tightened, but he did not show any panic.

He took a deep breath, adjusted his breathing, and at the same time frantically urged the energy in his body.

Just as the black shadow was about to pounce in front of Li Yuan, the latter suddenly spread a pair of lightning wings behind him, and the dazzling electric light dispelled the surrounding darkness, and his figure rose up like lightning.

The black shadow's attack missed the moment Li Yuan's body rose up. He looked up at Li Yuan in mid-air, with a hint of surprise that was hard to conceal in his eyes.

However, this surprise only lasted for a moment, and the black shadow quickly regained his composure.

His figure flashed and disappeared into the night like a ghost.

Even the strong ones in Shadow Blade Tower are well aware of the price of taking action in Yaodu, a city with strict rules.

If the first attack fails, they will never try again.

After all, challenging the rules of Yaodu here is tantamount to seeking death.

Li Yuan circled in the air in the alley, overlooking the empty alley below.

After making sure that the shadow had left, he slowly landed on a remote and low roof.

He stood on the edge of the roof, feeling the cool breeze on his face, took a deep breath, and tried to calm his inner turmoil. The other party invited all the masters of Shadow Blade Building to leave, and staying in Yaodu would definitely be dangerous.

This was just the beginning, there were more watchers waiting for him.

In the following time, Li Yuan began to cleverly avoid the surveillance in the city.

He used his speed to his advantage, shuttling between the intricate streets, narrow alleys and layers of rooftops.

Every time he dodged was like dancing on the edge of a knife, full of dangers, but he managed to overcome all the dangers with his extraordinary perseverance and wisdom.

As time went by, Li Yuan's figure looked increasingly tired in the night, and every leap he made revealed the gradual consumption of his internal energy.

He must find a safe hiding place as soon as possible to restore his energy, stay in peak condition when facing powerful opponents, and completely get rid of those watchers who are following him like a shadow.

Just when Li Yuan was getting extremely anxious, his eyes inadvertently fell on an abandoned warehouse in the distance.

The warehouse stood alone on a piece of wasteland in the city, surrounded by weeds and dead silence, as if it was a corner forgotten by the world.

A hint of determination flashed in Li Yuan's eyes, and his figure turned into a shadow, and in a few flashes he arrived in front of the warehouse door.

The warehouse door was dilapidated and had long lost its former strength.

Li Yuan did not push the door open directly, but closed his eyes slightly and released a trace of soul power to explore every inch of space in the warehouse to ensure that there were no potential threats.

After confirming that the warehouse was safe, Li Yuan disappeared in an instant and appeared inside the warehouse the next moment.

Li Yuan looked around, looking for a suitable hiding place.

Finally, he chose a shady spot near a corner, sat cross-legged, and began to regulate his breathing with his eyes closed.

Not long after, several dark shadows quietly appeared at the door of the abandoned warehouse.

They pushed the door open, and with a slight creaking sound, broke the silence of the warehouse.

These people moved quickly and cautiously, the moonstones in their hands reflecting their serious and cold faces.

They searched the warehouse carefully, using the Moonstone to illuminate area after area, but did not find anything unusual.

There was nothing in the warehouse except dust and old junk.

After confirming that there was nothing unusual, several figures exchanged glances and quietly exited the warehouse.

Shortly after they left, Li Yuan slowly stood up from the shadows in a corner of the warehouse.

He dusted himself off, a thoughtful look on his face, and whispered softly, "Zhu Xianyi must be searching the whole city for me now."

He looked around. Although the warehouse was run-down, it was in a very hidden location. He thought, "Their people have been here once, so they probably won't come here again.

"If there weren't so many restrictions in the city, I would really like to kill these guys one by one."

He also understood that if he really took action, it would give Zhu Xianyi a legitimate reason to hunt him down.

He must not lose the big picture for the sake of small details, he must remain calm and vigilant.

"Let's just wait here until dawn." Li Yuan said to himself.

This place is not far from the outskirts of Yaodu. It should be easy to leave the city when day breaks.

He walked to another corner of the warehouse, sat cross-legged, and continued to regulate his breathing.

.........

Noon the next day.

The sunlight shines on the abandoned warehouse, adding a bit of vitality to the dead building.

Suddenly, a thunderous figure flew out from the warehouse at a rapid speed and arrived at the outskirts of Yaodu in a blink of an eye.

This figure was Li Yuan.

Just as he was about to rush out of the city gate, several figures suddenly jumped out from the city wall. They were dressed in uniform and were obviously disciples of the Zhu family of Zheju.

They shouted loudly from afar: "Flying is strictly prohibited in Yaodu, please stop!"

Li Yuan's face darkened, and without hesitation he spread out the colorful wings of thunder and flame behind him and flapped them violently.

The sound of breaking through the air was loud, and he rushed out of the city like lightning at a speed several times faster than before.

When the descendants of the Zhu family in Zheju on the city wall saw this, their faces changed and they hurriedly used their skills to try to stop it.

However, Li Yuan waved his hand, and a colorful lightning shot out, like an angry dragon tumbling in the air.

Those disciples of the Zhu family of Zheju who were blocking the front dodged and avoided, not daring to take the attack head-on.

Li Yuan rushed out of Yaodu, leaving behind a long trail of light, like lightning streaking across the sky.

Behind him, dozens of Zhu family members from Zheju were already carrying various artifacts and chasing after him like locusts.

"This old bastard..." Li Yuan snorted coldly with gritted teeth, his face so gloomy that it seemed as if water could drip out of it.

After leaving Yaodu, Li Yuan's speed did not slow down at all, like a meteor across the sky, and the wind behind him seemed to be picked up by him, whistling and spreading into the distance.

Although the descendants of the Zhu family from Zheju who were chasing closely were numerous, they were soon left hundreds of miles behind by Li Yuan.

They could only watch Li Yuan walk away, but they could do nothing.

However, just when Li Yuan thought he was about to escape, a long green rainbow suddenly broke through the sky from the direction of Yaodu.

This long rainbow carried a huge aura, like a giant python tumbling in the air, and in the blink of an eye it surpassed the team that was being pursued by all the descendants of the Zhu family in Zheju.

Above the sky, wherever the long green rainbow passed, the air was torn apart, forming circles of circular ripples visible to the naked eye.

The sonic boom was deafening and continued to spread.

Dozens of Zhu family's descendants in Zheju saw this and stopped chasing.

Li Yuan turned his head suddenly, his pupils shrank suddenly, and a chill rose from the bottom of his heart.

"call out--"

The long green rainbow instantly closed the distance between him and the rainbow, only a few hundred feet away.

A short old man in a green robe, with a stern face and sharp eyes, emerged from the rainbow.

The old man didn't say a word. He moved and the sword in his hand turned into a dazzling sword light, extremely sharp.

As the sword was swung out, a giant green snake over a hundred feet long appeared out of thin air, with Yuan patterns flowing on its scales, exuding waves of majesty and murderous intent.

"Roar!"

The giant green snake howled towards the sky, and the sound shook the earth.

The sky also changed color. The originally clear sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds, lightning and thunder.

Countless thunders surged out from the clouds, pouring down like a silver waterfall, and swooped towards Li Yuan together with the giant green snake.

Li Yuan felt the force pressing down like a mountain and was horrified.

As he possessed several divine artifacts and treasures, he immediately guessed that the sword in the old man's hand was definitely not an ordinary item, but at least a top-grade treasure.

He couldn't help but exclaimed: "This old guy actually has such a treasure!"

Faced with the sudden attack, Li Yuan did not dare to be careless at all. The Yuan power in his body surged wildly and his figure became blurred in an instant.
