"Want to leave?"
Ye Xuan looked at the two who had fled into the air and sneered.
He didn't even move an inch, but the next moment, the Seven Star Dragon Abyss Sword flew out swiftly.
The domineering Sword Qi tore through the heavens and earth. With two soft thuds, the heads of two powerful figures who had just escaped not far were severed and fell limply to the ground.
Ye Xuan sheathed the Seven Star Dragon Abyss Sword and took the storage rings from the others, intending to continue on his way.
Suddenly, his expression changed, and without saying a word, he flashed to Yue Mei's side, grabbed Yue Mei, and ran away.
Yue Mei was utterly stunned by what she saw.
What exactly happened this time?
Ye Xuan remained silent, having already unleashed the full power of his Wandering Dragon Steps, and in an instant, he had already sped away.
" Saint Realm expert? Is this Saint Realm Saint Realm who's just passing by, or one from the Thousand Leaves Merchant Association?"
As Ye Xuan fled, he was deep in thought.
Just now, he sensed an extremely dangerous aura.
That terrifying pressure and oppressive feeling were undoubtedly from the Saint Realm.
Although Ye Xuan didn't know whether the other party had come for him or was simply passing by, he dared not gamble.
In either case, it's entirely possible to casually slap a weakling like him to death.
" Senior Brother Ye, what's wrong?"
Yue Mei's cultivation level was too low, so she didn't feel anything at all. After a long while, she came to her senses and asked timidly.
Ye Xuan said, "It seems a Saint Realm expert is coming. Let's find a place to cultivate for a while first."
There's no way around it, it's just too dangerous.
That's only because of him. If it were an ordinary Spirit Transformation Realm cultivator, even if their cultivation could be raised to the Divine Emperor Realm Peak Stage through supernatural powers, they would probably be dead long ago.
Even if he uses cheat codes, the number of times he can use the Power of Rules is limited.
If one were to encounter a cultivator below the Half-Saint on a solo mission, one might be able to fight them using the Sacred Armor and one's own combat strength, thus saving some of the rule usage counts.
But if he encounters multiple cultivators like this, even he wouldn't stand a chance.
"Huh?" Yue Mei opened her mouth upon hearing Ye Xuan's words, but dared not say anything more.
She had been following Ye Xuan for a day now, and even without asking, she roughly knew Ye Xuan's limits.
Ye Xuan has the ability and means to kill any cultivator below the Saint Realm.
But against the Saint Realm, that might not be possible.
Otherwise, Ye Xuan would have had no reason to flee the merchant ship.
Not long after Ye Xuan left, Duan Tianxiong arrived at the place where those Slaughter Hunters had fallen.
He looked at the five fallen bounty hunters, then at the slain Scarlet Flame Lion, and after sensing it carefully for a long time, he suddenly opened his eyes.
" The Power of Rules? There are remnants of the Power of Rules here. It seems it must be that madman."
A fierce glint suddenly flashed in Duan Tianxiong's eyes, and in the next instant, he vanished in a flash.
Ye Xuan didn't dare to stop for a moment, and kept running wildly with Yue Mei the whole way, and not in one direction at all.
Although he couldn't see Duan Tianxiong behind him, that intense sense of danger lingered in his mind for a long time.
"Holy crap, is it really necessary? Saint Realm expert chasing after me? It seems this really is Saint from the Thousand Leaves Merchant Association. How could it be so fast?"
Ye Xuan was about to curse.
Wasn't it said that it would take about half a month for the Thousand Leaves Merchant Association's Saint Realm to arrive here?
How did they catch up so quickly?
He was now almost certain that the Saint Realm being behind him was definitely Saint Realm of the Thousand Leaves Merchant Association, and that it had come for him.
Otherwise, there would be no reason for them to hunt him down, right?
After all, the two had no grudges against each other.
Yue Mei didn't dare to speak at all; her pretty face turned deathly pale.
She clung tightly to Ye Xuan with both hands, her entire body pressed against Ye Xuan, her breath almost stopped.
At this moment, she dared not move or utter a sound. Aside from her slightly rapid heartbeat and her hot, delicate body, she was as quiet as a dead object.
Being hunted down by a Saint Realm expert—this is incredibly exciting! She's never experienced anything like it!
She was afraid that Ye Xuan might get impatient and abandon her, then run away on his own.
After all, people are selfish, and cultivators in this world are even more selfish.
In this situation, Ye Xuan was facing imminent disaster, so why would he care about her?
Let alone the fact that the two have absolutely no relationship, they are certainly not Daoist partners.
Even if they were Daoist partners, those ruthless and cold-blooded cultivators would abandon her.
Once she's abandoned, even without the intervention of the Saint Realm expert, any random demonic beast could probably swallow her whole.
Ye Xuan ran wildly for two whole days before he felt that sense of crisis completely dissipate.
He finally couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Ye Xuan was very fortunate. He was fortunate that he had mastered the Wandering Dragon Steps, that his Spiritual Qi was vast and inexhaustible, and that the terrain here was quite complex.
All of these factors are what enabled him to escape; otherwise, he would have been caught long ago.
Soon, Ye Xuan spotted an inconspicuous cave and, without a word, went straight inside.
At the same time, Duan Tianxiong was furious.
He never imagined that he would spend two whole days chasing after a tiny ant, and still not catch it.
This is so embarrassing! If word gets out, he'll lose all face and won't be able to show his face in public anymore.
He's a Saint Realm expert! How could he not even catch an ant below the Saint Realm?
"Who exactly is that madman? How can he be so fast?"
While Duan Tianxiong was furious, he was also shocked and puzzled.
Ye Xuan's speed was truly incredible. Most importantly, the Spiritual Qi within Ye Xuan was inexhaustible, allowing him to run for a full two days. How was that possible?
Of course, this is also related to the fact that he was far away from Ye Xuan, the terrain was quite complex, and many powerful demons were lurking there, so he dared not unleash his power recklessly.
If this were anywhere else, even if Ye Xuan were a hundred times faster, he would absolutely not be able to escape.
Duan Tianxiong desperately wanted to unleash his full power, releasing his Saint Realm aura and sweeping across the battlefield with his domain without restraint.
But he didn't dare.
In places like this, you have no idea that Saint Realm beasts might be lurking there.
If he angers those Saint Realm demon beasts, Duan Tianxiong will be in big trouble.
Ye Xuan's cultivation level is low, and if he unleashes his full power, even if he passes through the territories of those Saint Realm demon beasts, they probably won't care.
They're nothing but ants, posing no threat. They can be wiped out like lunchboxes at any time.
But the fact that he dared to unleash his full power at the Saint Realm makes all the difference.
Soon, the other nine Saint Realm arrived, and their expressions turned grim when they saw that Duan Tianxiong had failed to capture Ye Xuan.
"In the name of my Thousand Leaves Merchant Association, issue a bounty. That kid is in this area; we must not let him escape."
Duan Tianxiong said with a gloomy expression.
