Their sudden acceleration, in the eyes of those petty fellows, looked as if they were preparing to flee.
"We can't let them escape!"
The one who spoke this was naturally some insignificant small force or rogue cultivator.
They did not have the support of a powerful intelligence network, so they naturally did not know of Zi Lingling's and the other four's earth-shattering feat.
Therefore, in their eyes, there were only the priceless treasures on Zi Lingling.
Thus, outside the City of Chaos, a peculiar scene unfolded.
Zi Lingling and the other four sprinted ahead, with a large group of desperate criminals, their killing intent surging, following behind them, either in groups of three to five or teams of ten or so.
And behind these desperate criminals, followed some families or sect forces.
They did not reveal any killing intent, as if they were just watching a play from behind the main group.
But Zi Lingling and the other four all understood that the desperate criminals were not the ones to be feared, but these "spectators."
After all, barking dogs do not bite, but a sluggish donkey can kick to death.
However, all schemes are merely paper tigers that are pierced with a single poke in the face of absolute strength, so Zi Lingling and the other four did not show any fear.
As Rong Guang had said, Cao family's seven to eight thousand people, including the Cao family's old patriarch who was at the Divine Lord realm, had gained nothing from Zi Lingling, so why would they, these mere hundreds of people, be a concern to them?
Zi Lingling and the other four's speed was extremely fast, and they soon left the "pursuers" far behind, forcing the five of them to slow down and wait for the "pursuers" behind them.
In this way, when these "pursuers" got too close, the five of them would increase their speed, and when these "pursuers" fell too far behind, the five of them would stroll leisurely.
Soon, Zi Lingling and the other four, with their "pursuers" and tails behind them, arrived at an open space.
A rogue cultivator at the peak of the Divine King realm adjusted his breath and mockingly said with a grim expression, "You five can sure run! Keep running, why did you stop?"
A burly man wearing an eyepatch also taunted, "This place is nice, you've chosen a good burial ground for yourselves!"
A sissy also caught up, flicking his orchid fingers with a smile, "They're giving you five two choices: hand over all your treasures, or... die!"
Although he was smiling, his smile sent a chill down one's spine.
"Ren Tianxing, Li Banxia, Ximen Xiu, didn't we agree to cooperate? How could you scare these five little brats without waiting for me?"
A bald monk also caught up, speaking in an aged tone.
Ren Tianxing was the peak Divine King realm rogue cultivator, Li Banxia was the burly man with the eyepatch, and Ximen Xiu was naturally the sissy. Su Dan Novel Network.
Li Banxia's face was ugly, and he said without politeness, "Baldy Zhao, who is to blame if you yourself are slow?"
He was originally a bandit leader, and because he lost one eye, he hated it most when people mentioned his blindness.
Therefore, for the bald monk to call him Li Banxia was equivalent to touching his taboo, so he directly retaliated in kind, calling the bald monk "Baldy Zhao."
The bald monk was not angry, and said with a grin, "You're right, I really can't outrun you, a half-blind man!"
"You..."
The words "half-blind man" angered Li Banxia so much that smoke almost rose from his forehead.
"Baldy Zhao, why are you making baseless accusations as soon as you arrive? They spoke so gently, how could they have scared these five little brats?"
Ximen Xiu, the sissy, looked at the bald monk with a smiling face and said in a sugary tone.
Of course, his smile did not reach his eyes.
The bald monk was clearly startled by the sissy's demeanor, goosebumps all over, "Ximen Xiu, can't you be a normal man? Why do you always imitate women and act like a sissy?"
The words "sissy" were like a long, thin steel needle that directly pierced Ximen Xiu's heart.
He couldn't even bother to maintain the smile that didn't reach his eyes and said with a cold face, "Baldy Zhao, are you planning to fight me and Boss Li first?"
Baldy Zhao laughed loudly, "Hahaha! How dare I fight you? Once your effeminate technique is used, I'll be defeated immediately! So, let's cooperate first!"
He said this, and without caring about Ximen Xiu's dark and green face, he directly said to Zi Lingling and the other four, "Five little brats, as long as you hand over the Ancestral Dragon Blood Essence, the Kui Niu Sinew, and the Spring of Life, I, Zhao Qingtian, will guarantee your safe departure, how about it?"
Before Zi Lingling could speak, Shangguan Yulin let out a sneer and said, "The four of you, one blind, one effeminate, one bald, and one hypocrite, coming together is quite a feat for you!"
"By the way, weren't you about to fight just now? Why did you stop? I say, bald monk, you're too cowardly! If I were you, I wouldn't care if he's blind, effeminate, or a hypocrite, I'd just fight first!"
His words immediately stirred up a hornet's nest.
"You're seeking death!"
Ren Tianxing, Li Banxia, Ximen Xiu, and the bald monk all roared in anger and launched their attacks simultaneously.
"Tsk! With four piles of shit right in front of me, why would I look for shit elsewhere?"
While Shangguan Yulin was mouthing off, his hands were not idle.
The Vermilion Bird Feather Fan instantly enlarged, and he held it with both hands, fanning it fiercely. A phantom of a Vermilion Bird appeared in front of Li Banxia.
Shangguan Yulin said with a playful smile, "You're already half blind, so I'll make you completely blind!"
At the same time, Xuanyuan Xun met Ren Tianxing, Rong Guang met the bald monk, Shen Liuxing also met the sissy, but only Zi Lingling did not move.
In an instant, the Vermilion Bird's flame, the Overlord Spear shadow, the Primordial Poison Tree shadow, and the black flute shadow darted and flew about.
Shangguan Yulin, Xuanyuan Xun, Rong Guang, and Shen Liuxing, after each unleashing an attack, quickly exchanged positions.
This way, Ren Tianxing, Li Banxia, the sissy, and the bald monk met a tragic end.
In front of Ren Tianxing was a spear light, but after he blocked it, before he could even catch his breath, a Vermilion Bird's flame had already reached his eyes. He dodged too late, and a large piece of his clothes was burned off.
Li Banxia, having just dodged the Vermilion Bird's flame, sensed a black long flute stabbing directly at his one good eye. He hurriedly closed his eyes and simultaneously retreated backward.
The bald monk clearly saw a large tree swinging towards him, but as he dodged to the side, he found himself on the tip of a spear. Startled, he quickly prostrated himself on the ground.
The sissy saw the long flute pointing at him and hurriedly dodged, but unexpectedly, he bumped directly into the thick trunk of a large tree.
