Chapter 150: Spiritual Python
Two days later.
After the matters at Li Shui Sect were handled, Wang Yufan left Li Shui Sect with Li Meng’er, Li Qiye, Mo Zheng, and Little Black.
"Master, where are we going this time?" Li Qiye asked on the way.
Wang Yufan smiled and said, "As for the next stop, I don’t know either. Let’s just go with the flow."
Upon hearing this, Li Meng’er disagreed and loudly said, "Young Master, aren’t you forgetting something?"
Wang Yufan pretended not to know and said, "What? I don’t know what else there is. Let’s head southwest now."
After Wang Yufan finished speaking, he took a step and instantly appeared ten meters away.
Seeing this, Li Meng’er stomped her foot angrily and said, "You don’t keep your word. Hmph."
Li Qiye was utterly bewildered by what he heard. He had only met these people two days ago. There was a black-robed middle-aged man whose strength was unfathomable, a Ghost-Face Mask Woman, and a Little Black who called himself Brother Dog.
All of this made Li Qiye feel curious and mysterious. He still didn’t know what kind of person his Master truly was.
Li Qiye tried asking Li Meng’er.
"Sister, you just said my Master forgot something. What was it? Can you tell me?"
Upon hearing Li Qiye’s words, Li Meng’er felt like she finally had a place to vent her anger.
Li Meng’er looked towards Li Qiye, her sharp eyes piercing through her mask.
Li Qiye instantly felt a chill, as if he had entered the depths of winter.
"Uh, I’m sorry, Sister, I shouldn’t have said anything. I’ll take my leave first." Li Qiye felt something was amiss and wanted to make a quick escape. However, he was immediately stopped by Li Meng’er.
"Hmph, trying to run? You’ve also acknowledged Young Master as your Master now. Since he actually forgot about my matter and I have nowhere to vent my anger, I can only find you, his disciple. Your Senior Brother isn’t here, so you’ll have to do it in his stead."
After Li Meng’er finished speaking, her fists directly flew towards Li Qiye.
Li Qiye quickly ran in the direction Wang Yufan had gone.
"Master, help. She’s going to kill me."
And so, the group continued their journey southwest.
...
Half a month later.
Wang Yufan’s group of four, along with Little Black, arrived at a large mountain.
The roars of demonic beasts continuously echoed, and aside from Li Qiye feeling a bit nervous, everyone else remained calm.
After the group had walked for about half an incense stick’s time, rustling sounds continuously emerged from the forest.
"Senior Brother, you all hurry and leave. I’ll hold back these few Spirit Pythons. The exit of this mountain range should not be far from here."
"No, Junior Brother Wang, these Spirit Pythons have already reached the Human Immortal Realm. You are not their match. If we’re going, we go together. Senior Brother will not leave any of you here."
As they spoke, several people ran at full speed, heading in the same direction as Wang Yufan and his group.
Roar. Roar. Roar.
The sounds of the Spirit Pythons continuously echoed through the mountain, and not far ahead of them, dozens of people were frantically fleeing.
"Senior Brother, look, there are some people ahead who seem to be coming towards us."
The fleeing individuals were startled when they saw Wang Yufan and his group. The Black-Clothed Youth at the very front shouted at Wang Yufan and his group.
"Hurry. Don’t stay here. There are demonic beasts behind us, it’s dangerous."
Just a few blinks of an eye after he finished speaking, they had already arrived in front of Wang Yufan and the others.
Wang Yufan looked at this group of people, who were covered in wounds. There were also several women, but their injuries were minor. In contrast, several men had torn clothes, clearly bitten.
"Young man, you all should leave quickly. There are three extremely fierce Spirit Pythons behind us. We’ve been fleeing all the way," the Black-Clothed Youth said.
Wang Yufan smiled and said, "No worries, I’m not afraid. You all go ahead."
Upon hearing Wang Yufan’s words, someone behind the Black-Clothed Youth said, "How can you be like this? My Senior Brother kindly warned you. Instead of thanking us, you tell us to leave quickly.
Senior Brother, we don’t need to talk to them. Let’s go quickly, those three Spirit Pythons are about to catch up."
The Black-Clothed Youth nodded and said, "Alright then, let’s go. But Junior Brother, you don’t need to say that. We kindly warned them; whether they listen or not is their business. We just need to have a clear conscience."
Wang Yufan heard the Black-Clothed Youth’s words and looked him up and down, feeling that this youth had good character.
Just as the Black-Clothed Youth finished speaking and was about to leave, at a hundred meters behind them, trees continuously fell, and roars echoed.
"It’s over, they’ve caught up, we can’t escape." Several people said, huddling together. Meanwhile, Wang Yufan and the others simply watched quietly.
Three massive shadows suddenly loomed over them. When everyone looked up, they saw three giant pythons, and they were Spirit Pythons that had reached the Human Immortal Realm.
Wang Yufan also realized that among this group, only the Black-Clothed Youth’s strength had reached the Human Immortal Realm, while the rest were in the Tribulation Transcendence Realm. Facing three Spirit Pythons, they would certainly be defeated.
"Cunning humans, keep running. You took our three kings things and think you can leave safely just like that? How much face do you think you have? Since you can’t escape, we’ll eat you and turn you into our nourishment," the Azure Spirit Python in the middle said, speaking human words.
"Big Brother, no, it seems there are a few more humans," the black Spirit Python on the far left said.
At this moment, the Azure Spirit Python in the middle looked and indeed saw a few more humans, and these were precisely Wang Yufan and his group.
The gray Spirit Python on the right said, "Big Brother, look, there’s also a black dog at the peak of the Tribulation Transcendence Realm over there. However, I feel its soul seems to have reached the Human Immortal Realm. If we eat it, it would greatly benefit our cultivation."
Little Black showed no reaction upon hearing their conversation, because it knew that since these three Spirit Pythons had encountered its master, there could only be one outcome for them.
The Black-Clothed Youth and the others immediately formed a formation, their eyes fixed on the three enormous Spirit Pythons.
Some people were complaining that they shouldn’t have warned Wang Yufan, wasting their escape time, and now their lives would be lost here.
Wang Yufan ignored what they said. Instead, he looked at these three Spirit Pythons, completely disregarding them.
He said to Li Meng’er and the others, "Let’s keep going."
Upon hearing this, not only Li Meng’er, but everyone else was also stunned. Had they not seen the three Spirit Pythons staring at them?
Although Li Meng’er was stunned for a moment, she and the others still followed Wang Yufan. Li Qiye walked in the very middle.
This was the first time he had encountered such a situation, but he felt that his Master should be able to defeat these three demonic beasts, and furthermore, behind him walked that mysterious black-clothed middle-aged man.
Li Qiye felt that the pressure the black-clothed man behind him exerted was even stronger than that of his own sect leader.
