When the people in the sky came to their senses, Xiao Yan had already disappeared. Huo Ting was furious, and his Elder Zhang face turned ashen. He thought that dealing with a mere Half-Emperor would be a piece of cake, but Xiao Yan was far beyond his imagination. This kind of power was something that Half-Emperor could not possibly possess!
"Damn it! You think you can escape? With me here, let's see where you can run! Chase him! No matter what, we must keep Xiao Yan here today!"
Huo Ting let out a cold shout and moved swiftly, chasing after the direction where Xiao Yan had disappeared.
After him, the others looked at each other in bewilderment, and then followed closely behind.
Having activated his Vajra Glazed Body, the black robe covering Xiao Yan's entire body dissipated, revealing his aura to the world. Furthermore, given that Huo Ting was Three-Star Dou Di, tracking down Xiao Yan's aura would naturally not be difficult.
In the distant sky, Xiao Yan had already dispelled his Vajra Glazed Body, but unfortunately, his location had been exposed. Now, it would be difficult to conceal his aura. Therefore, Xiao Yan had no choice but to do his best to use the Heavenly Severing Steps to evade the pursuit of those behind him.
Behind Xiao Yan, Huo Ting and Bai Ying, both Three-Star Dou Di, were the fastest. In just a short while, they could vaguely see Xiao Yan's back. It has to be said that although the Heavenly Severing Steps was terrifying, Xiao Yan's strength was insufficient, making it too difficult for him to easily evade the pursuit of Huo Ting and the others.
As for Lin Zehong and Xu Songming, they followed Huo Ting and the other at a distance. After all, their strength was not as good as the latter, so their travel speed would naturally be different. Bai Zhan and the other three stayed where they were, waiting for their respective families to arrive.
In the void, Xiao Yan's figure moved swiftly like a black lightning bolt. A fierce gale swept past him, creating a piercing sonic boom. Wherever he passed, the mountains and forests below were carved with craters like mountain channels by the terrifying wind Xiao Yan he generated. After Xiao Yan's Xiao Yan flashed past, those craters gradually recovered.
Following closely behind, Huo Ting and Bai Ying unleashed their speed, and at full power, they were undoubtedly several times faster than Xiao Yan. The distance between them was gradually shortening, and it was likely that Huo Ting and Bai Ying would catch up with Xiao Yan's speed soon.
"Damn it! They came really fast!"
Sensing the two rapidly approaching auras behind him, Xiao Yan's eyes narrowed slightly. He gritted his teeth, his body trembled, and his forward speed increased again. In the blink of an eye, he had disappeared from the sky.
"Hmph, Xiao Yan, where do you think you're going! You won't escape my grasp today!"
Sensing that Xiao Yan's speed had suddenly increased, Huo Ting let out a cold snort, his old face contorting into a ferocious expression. His body trembled violently, and he stomped his feet several times in the void. Each stomp shattered the void, and his figure shot through the void at an extremely fast speed, quickly chasing after Xiao Yan.
After that, Bai Ying was equally unwilling to be outdone.
As the two sides chased each other, they failed to notice that behind Huo Ting and Bai Ying, in the invisible void, a figure clad in a black robe was quietly following...
This chase lasted for a full hour. During that hour, Xiao Yan spared no effort and exerted all his strength to move forward. Only then did Xiao Yan realize that although he had left Xuan City, he had entered the territory of the Bai Clan. Here, if Bai Ying wanted, he could mobilize his clansmen here in the shortest amount of time, and intercepting Xiao Yan would be a piece of cake.
However, before this scene could unfold, Xiao Yan was intercepted by Huo Ting and his companion, who arrived shortly after, and they attacked him from both sides.
"Hmph, Xiao Yan, surrender now, and I guarantee you'll be left with a whole corpse. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
Huo Ting flipped his hand, and a long sword fell into his palm. Upon closer inspection, this long sword was clearly different from ordinary swords. The difference was that ordinary swords had straight and sharp blades, but this sword was different. The blade was not straight at all; instead, it was full of serrated edges. Judging from this, if this sword were to fall on a person, it would be impossible not to tear off a piece of flesh.
On the other side, Bai Ying clenched his fist, and dazzling lightning rose from his arm, circling around it once before transforming into a lightning spear in his palm. The spear tip pointed directly at Xiao Yan with a cold, sharp light.
Xiao Yan glanced around, his brows furrowing even deeper. In this situation, he was truly surrounded by enemies. If they attacked together, even with the help of the Power Xiao Yan Strength Elephant Art, he probably wouldn't be a match for them!
Thinking of this, Xiao Yan felt a heavy weight in his heart, and at the same time, he felt somewhat helpless. Now that his path forward was blocked, he had no way to retreat. Facing two Three-Star Dou Di, he could only grit his teeth and rush forward.
There is no way to retreat; only a battle will end this way!
"Laugh..."
As his right hand descended, a flash of light appeared in his palm, and the enormous Heavy Xuan Ruler emerged inch by inch. Xiao Yan Xiao Yan grasped it in his hand, and the weight of the ruler made a hissing sound as it fell into the void, with a chilling wind pressure that made people tremble.
"Hmph, I thought all you knew was how to run away."
Huo Ting grinned sneer. Even if Xiao Yan withstood his imposing aura, he was confident that he could suppress the latter if they really started fighting. And indeed, that was the case.
Before reaching the Dou Di level, Xiao Yan could only fight against One-Star Dou Di with his Strength Elephant Art. As for Two-Star Dou Di, he could barely handle him, let alone Three-Star Dou Di.
As Huo Ting's laughter subsided, he raised his serrated longsword, its blade reflecting a chilling light. With the infusion of Dou Qi, the entire sword emitted a faint Dou Qi qi.
On the other side, Bai Ying also raised his spear at this moment, channeling his Dou Qi into it. Bolts of lightning coiled around the spear like small snakes, ready to unleash a devastating barrage on Xiao Yan at Bai Ying's command.
Realizing this, Xiao Yan tightened his grip on the Heavy Xuan Ruler slightly, beads of cold sweat appearing on his Dou Qi. He dared not be careless as his Xiao Yan surged outwards, and his Heavenly Flames rose, condensing into a Heavenly Flames Armor on his body. Although he knew that a Heavenly Flames Armor alone would not be of much use in such a battle, Xiao Yan still condensed it.
