Shocking Venomous Consort: Frivolous Miss

Chapter 419: This was a Really Bad Situation

Nobody noticed that just as Ling Chuxi and Ye Qianhe escaped the capital, a few other figures secretly tailed after them.

The sun slowly rose above Ling Chuxi and Ye Qianhe’s heads and then slowly set in the west. In the end, all that was left were clouds that looked as though they had been set on fire. Ling Chuxi secretly lamented in her heart. This time, this old man had hardened his heart to be so unwilling to get along with her. He didn’t even drink a mouthful of water at any point of the chase and constantly ran after her without relenting.

If it were not for the fact that she had comprehended the Turning Cloud Gesture in addition to being able to condense her spiral qi into a single point so she could give the old man a good fight for his money every time the situation turned critical, things would really have been dangerous for her this time.

Ye Qianhe who was running after Ling Chuxi for hours and hours on end was actually also surprised. He remembered the last time they met, Ling Chuxi did not have even have the least bit of ability to respond to his attacks with her own. How long had it been since? Without mentioning the upgrade in her Battle Qi, she had even comprehended such a weird and powerful Battle Qi martial arts skill in such a short time. If his cultivation level wasn’t in the realm of True Essence, without even mentioning the chasing, blocking Ling Chuxi’s attacks alone would be a problem.

“If I am unable to take her in as a disciple under my banner, then I need to kill her on the spot. Otherwise, if I let her continue to progress freely, it will definitely spell trouble for me.” Although he was surprised by Ling Chuxi’s quick improvement, Ye Qianhe still came to such a ruthless decision.

Just like this, with one running and one chasing, the sky finally darkened above them. Ling Chuxi ran into the Ancient Silver Mountain Range where mountainous peaks rose and fell like waves without any end in sight. She knew for sure that she would not be able to escape if she just kept running along the main paths and flat plains with nowhere to hide. It was only by running into uneven terrain like this that she stood a chance to escape.

In the obscure moonlight, with the trees and the rocks as shadowy obstacles, Ling Chuxi’s agile figure flitted through the mountain range with ease. The angry scoldings from Ye Qianhe’s who was trailing behind her became more and more distant.

Finally able to stop and rest for a while, Ling Chuxi wiped away her sweat with a handkerchief and dug out a spare peony cake which she casually kept on her. She ate watchfully, keeping guard of her surroundings. That old pervert was truly being serious this time and she could not afford to be careless.

Suddenly, a bad premonition surged in her heart. Ling Chuxi instinctively got up and launched herself backwards. Almost at the same time, a strong mighty aura that seemed to cover the entire earth surged over to her. Ling Chuxi did not even have time to draw her sword, instead she threw both her palms forward to block the aura using the maximum capabilities of her strength.

Despite this, a few huge stones came smashing over into her chest. Ling Chuxi felt its impact even as both her legs left the ground as she flew up into the air, colliding heavily into a huge rock above the surrounding area. Only atop the rock did she manage to stabilize herself once again. Ling Chuxi’s chest was heaving rigorously and all she could feel were her organs flipping around inside her. She could barely catch her breath.

It was a lucky thing she had maintained a high level of alertness and had been constantly condensing her Battle Qi. Otherwise, such a tyrannical blow suddenly appearing out of nowhere would have taken her little life away.

“Ling Chuxi, this time let’s see if there is still anyone who can help you?” sneered a few old men ruthlessly as they appeared before her. They were none other than Ren Youran and a few others from Wu Feng Hall.

Ling Chuxi was surprised to see Ren Youran. This was truly a case of running out of the tiger’s den into the wolf’s nest. This was a really bad situation. What was she to do now?

Ren Youran proudly and viciously glared at Ling Chuxi. When Huangfu Qingjue let them off the last time, Ren Youran had naturally assumed that he did so because the people of the Deity Temple were unwilling to break the delicate balance between the deistical authorities and imperial authorities and therefore did not attack them further. What he did not know was that, why would Huangfu Qingjue be bothered about such matters? Huangfu Qingjue simply spared them because he viewed them as a sharpening stone left out for Ling Chuxi’s use to sharpen herself, that’s all. But, how was it possible that these people would understand Huangfu Qingjue’s kind intentions?

Ling Chuxi took a deep breath. It was a good thing she had not sustained any injuries earlier on. However, the speed of her Battle Qi usage had obviously slowed down quite a bit by now. Ling Chuxi knew that even if she was in perfect condition, there wasn’t much of a winning chance against Ren Youran and his men, much less in her current condition. However, despite the dire situation, there was still hope in that same old saying, “If you can’t beat them, run!”‘Furthermore, there will come a day when I will be able to beat them all!’
