Two Pursue, Two Flee

There was only one pavilion in the desolate mountains and wilderness, overgrown with weeds, and few people came here.

His bones lay buried in the desolate mountains, unknown to anyone. Compared to the first time the middle-aged beauty invited Zhang Xuezhou to treat her illness with a kind and gentle demeanor, the second time they met, the woman's peaceful demeanor vanished, and purple Law Power surged forth as she reached out her hand.

Under the pull of her Law Power, countless clumps of soil flew up outside the pavilion, enveloping it in just a few seconds.

"Break!"

Within seconds, the pavilion was completely dark, and you couldn't see your hand in front of your face.

But with a shout from Dong Zhongshu, and a push forward, a large hole appeared.

Before Dong Zhongshu could even greet him, Zhang Xuezhou had already darted out of the cave.

Bronze-colored wings appeared on his arms, and before Dong Zhongshu could even summon the wind rope, Zhang Xuezhou had already taken flight.

"Wait for me!"

Dong Zhongshu shouted and hurriedly unleashed a Wind Rope Technique as he reached out.

He could only be thankful that he possessed the ability to cast some low-level Technique Method almost instantly; otherwise, he would have had a real difficulty keeping up with Zhang Xuezhou's speed in escaping.

The two of them, one above the other, quickly took to the air as Zhang Xuezhou spread his wings.

"What a brilliant technique! It actually broke through my impenetrable defenses!"

From revealing her body through earth magic to using Technique Method to trap and kill her, the Holy Mother of Wudang moved with incredible speed.

However, Dong Zhongshu seemed to have a pre-ordained spell to break the curse, and Zhang Xuezhou's escape speed was beyond the expectations of the Holy Mother of Wudang.

Before she could retract her Technique Method, the two were already more than twenty meters off the ground, and were still rising higher and higher.

"Piland, lend me a hand!"

The Holy Mother of Wudang has few rivals, both on and off the ground, but when her opponent flies into the air, it truly involves a field she is not good at.

This was mainly because Zhang Xuezhou and the others had no intention of fighting at all; they were only thinking about escaping.

Having such an opponent was undoubtedly extremely troublesome. Thinking of Dong Zhongshu's threat, she took out a piece of red cloth and threw it into the air, shouting for help.

High up in the distance, a large bird with three blue tail feathers flapped its wings vigorously.

"Are you going to kill Zhu Shiyin?" Pilan shouted from afar.

Her body streaked across the sky, her speed as swift as a fleeting shadow.

The bird demons' flying ability was clearly superior to that of Zhang Xuezhou, who was only half-baked.

Zhang Xuezhou had only raised his body to a position of about fifty meters when Pilan had already flown past them.

"Shoot them down!"

The Holy Mother of Wudang points to the high sky.

Without Pilan, she would not only be helpless against such an opponent, but would likely have to submit to his threats.

Mount Li is so large that even if an ordinary person spends two days wandering around the mountain, it would be difficult to find their way out.

But Mount Li is also very small, so small that the Holy Mother of Wudang would find it difficult to withstand possible attacks and retaliations.

She was just a person, and she was bound to get tired and make mistakes. It wouldn't be surprising if she were plotted against and lost her life here.

Even the Zhou emperor perished in such a place, so it's normal for the Holy Mother of Wudang to feel that she was beaten to death.

But she never did anything passive. As long as those who knew the news were buried there, the matter would be nipped in the bud and kept under control to a minimum.

The Holy Mother of Wudang pointed her finger, and Pilan immediately looked up.

"Isn't this the doctor who treated your troublesome girl the other day?" Pilan exclaimed.

"That's not true now!"

The Holy Mother of Wudang shook her head.

She has always disliked noisy people; this applies to both Pi Lan and Zhang Xuezhou.

These people have loose lips; they should be sewn shut.

Even the Holy Mother of Wudang never expected that in such a short time, the other party would bring a great scholar to visit.

If this kind of thing happens several times, she will definitely not be able to settle down.

The corresponding solution is not hard to guess.

"You even killed the doctor who treated your illness; you're incredibly ruthless!"

When Pilan raised his neck to look at him, Zhang Xuezhou couldn't help but flutter his wings in a panic.

He finally understood where Wei Shao'er's ruthless style came from.

"You only said she was alone, but you didn't mention she also had a three-tailed golden pheasant demon!"

Not only was Zhang Xuezhou panicked, but Dong Zhongshu also couldn't help but cry out, "What a disaster!"

He determined the techniques that the master of this secret place was skilled in, and he had also practiced coordinated flight with Zhang Xuezhou when they came, but all his calculations were no match for the fact that the other party possessed a bird demon with extraordinary strength.

Seeing the golden light flashing in the bird demon's eyes, and feeling a sharp pain in his head, Dong Zhongshu couldn't help but casually unleash a wind blade.

"As expected, I managed to avoid it!"

Wind blades are effective against many creatures, but against powerful bird demons, who are naturally drawn to wind, it is very difficult to kill them using wind blades.

Seeing that Pi Lan easily dodged his almost silent wind blade, Dong Zhongshu's expression changed drastically.

"Looking for an open space, I..."

Just as Dong Zhongshu was about to have Zhang Xuezhou fly to a slightly more open area in the distance, hoping to deal with Pilan as soon as possible before the Holy Mother of Wudang could attack, he heard Zhang Xuezhou flapping his wings and shouting.

"You know the whereabouts of the Ten Yin Holy Son? You really know? My poor, miserable man!"

The blue-winged creature that attacked Dong Zhongshu paused for a moment, then flew backwards to high above Zhang Xuezhou.

"Doctor, please tell me the whereabouts of the Ten Yin Holy Son!" Pilan pleaded. "I'm just waiting to kill this damned bastard."

"I really want to help you, but the Holy Mother of Wudang wants to kill us. If we tell her, we'll definitely die!" Zhang Xuezhou shouted.

"The Holy Mother is the kindest of all; at most, she will only punish you, she won't kill you," Pilan said. "Please tell me the whereabouts of the Ten Yin Holy Son!"

"I'm sorry, I won't tell you until we're in a safe place!"

Zhang Xuezhou shook his head, flapped his wings lightly, and flew away continuously, with Bilan accompanying him high in the sky.

"Pilam, Pilam!"

High below, in the mountains, the body of the Holy Mother Wudang appeared like a ghost, constantly emerging from the ground, relentlessly pursuing and urging Pilan to make his move.

This made Zhang Xuezhou's heart tighten.

He now needed to see whether Pilan wanted to obtain information about the Ten Yin Holy Son, or whether Pilan was willing to listen to those who helped her kill the Ten Yin Holy Son.

"You need to understand, without our information to help you find the Ten Yin Holy Son, no matter how many people you call for help, it won't be of any use. Your revenge needs to be done step by step, and the first step is to get information from us!"

Zhang Xuezhou's mind raced, and he immediately launched a psychological offensive.

What he said is true, but the reverse is also true: if they obtained news of the Ten Yin Holy Son, it would be useless without enough manpower to help.

But the bird-like creatures are indeed not as intelligent as humans.

After being eloquently spoken by Zhang Xuezhou, Bi Lan nodded repeatedly, finding Zhang Xuezhou's words to be very reasonable.

"Girl, why don't you let them go? They know the whereabouts of the Ten Yin Holy Son! This is the first time I've heard of anyone confirming that the Ten Yin Holy Son isn't dead, and even knowing his whereabouts!"

By the time Zhang Xuezhou added a few more sentences, the bird demon had already swooped down to entangle the Holy Mother of Wudang.

"I have the ability to track down your cousin. Even if you manage to escape for a while, you won't be able to escape in the end!"

But when the threatening voice of the "Mother of All Evil" came from below, Zhang Xuezhou's expression changed.

"If you dare not cross the three thousand li boundary, I will take my cousin and ride three thousand li away today!"

You can't escape three thousand miles!

"What a joke! I have Technique Method horse that can run day and night, covering 30,000 li (15,000 km), so why would I be afraid of not being able to run 3,000 li (1,500 km)?"

When the Holy Mother of Wudang shouted threats, Zhang Xuezhou was not to be outdone. He even pulled out the skeleton of the Technique Method white horse from his sleeve.

After exchanging several insults and actually seeing the Technique Method and Spirit Artifact the other possessed, the Holy Mother Wudang also felt uneasy.
