Chapter 255: Trapped
Bald Ascetic moved like the wind, fleeing into the distance. Lu Hui and Zhang Lan chased after him.
Mo Hua, meanwhile, stayed behind.
The battle in the valley gradually drew to a close. The Sinful Cultivators were either dead or subdued, while the Dao Court Office had suffered few casualties.
After a while, Mo Shan and Ji Qingbai also appeared at the mouth of the valley. They wanted to pursue Bald Ascetic, but Mo Hua stopped them.
"Dad, I'll go with you. Uncle Ji doesn't need to come."
Ji Qingbai hurriedly said, "How can that be?"
Mo Shan glanced at Mo Hua, seeming to understand something. "Brother Ji, there's no need for you to go."
"This matter started because of me..."
Mo Shan shook his head. "The Kong Family used their power to bully others. This matter began with the Kong Family, not with you. The fault lies with them as well."
Ji Qingbai frowned. "But..."
Mo Hua smiled mysteriously. "Uncle Ji, don't worry."
Ji Qingbai still wanted to insist, but Mo Shan and Mo Hua had already used their Movement Techniques and chased after Bald Ascetic.
Ji Qingbai remained where he was. Recalling Mo Hua's smile, he was filled with doubt. What exactly is Mo Hua planning to do?
Mo Hua and Mo Shan used their Movement Techniques to pursue him. Every so often, they stopped to look at the Sinan Compass and confirm the general direction.
Bald Ascetic was being hunted by Zhang Lan and Lu Hui, and he had to use his escape technique with all his strength. That would inevitably create Lingli fluctuations and leave a clear trail on the Sinan Compass.
Before long, the lingering shadow of Bald Ascetic's Lingli appeared within Mo Hua's divine sense.
He had a wind Spirit Root.
