Chapter 175 Carry Her and Run Away
Li Ye took a deep breath and shook his body. He used a cleansing technique to remove the traces of muddy water and rotted leaves on his body. He looked up at the night sky. The rain showed no sign of abating.
With a slight sigh, Li Ye turned around and gave the Junior Priestess, who was bound with her hands and thrown under the tree, a cleansing technique.
But there was not much muddy water on the Junior Priestess’ body. Even during the most difficult times of the fight, she did not forget to surround herself with Spiritual Qi to keep her clothes from getting wet and clinging to her body.
Otherwise, even if she could survive the final fight, Li Ye was unable to control himself to let go of her.
At this moment, the Junior Priestess’ gaze at Li Ye was enough to kill him ten thousand times.
Her mind was tougher than ordinary people. In such a situation, she had no intention of crying. If it was another ordinary woman, even if she didn’t try to commit suicide, she would cry.
Li Ye took some Dan Pills to restore his Spiritual Qi, but he didn’t give them to the Junior Priestess. Of course not. The Junior Priestess was tied up by him just because of her exhaustion not injury. Li Ye didn’t intend to restore her fighting power.
He was very clear that no matter what he said, the Junior Priestess would puncture thousands of holes in his body with the flying leaf-shaped blades as soon as she regained strength.
Li Ye squatted in front of the Junior Priestess. Although he had a thousand reasons to excuse himself, he was still embarrassed. “Well, we are both cultivators and work for our own masters. It was inevitable that there would be some mistakes in the fight of life and death, but I didn’t mean to be disrespectful to you. You have to believe me.”
The Junior Priestess just kept staring at Li Ye.
Li Ye didn’t know whether she believed him or not, but he knew clearly if the anger in her eyes could turn into fire, he would have been burned to ashes.
Li Ye shook his head and sighed, very helpless. In the end, he could only pat the Junior Priestess’ shoulder to comfort her.
The Junior Priestess didn’t say a word or dodge, staring at Li Ye.
“Well, I understand your determination, but I have to offend you again.”
After finishing his words, Li Ye got close to the Junior Priestess to hold her.
Putting the Junior Priestess on the shoulder, Li Ye walked out of the forest and rushed to the courier station.
The heavy rain finally stopped when they ran across the previous wilderness. The cool night wind blew the Junior Priestess’ purple hair. Her hair brushed Li Ye’s face up and down, making him feel odd, numb and itchy.
There was a blank passage on the wilderness, which was cleared out by Li Ye when he rushed here before. He ran along the passage, and the Junior Priestess heaved slightly on his shoulder.
Fortunately, the Junior Priestess didn’t struggle, but she kept turning to stare at Li Ye, trying to kill him with her gaze. Her expression was very serious as if her gaze could really kill Li Ye.
Summer was hot and dry, but now in the wilderness of the mountain, it was particularly cool and refreshing. The night wind mingled with the fresh smell of vegetation came from the mountains far away and passed through countless treetops and grass to embrace Li Ye.
The distant mountains were quiet, the forest was deep, the wilderness was dark, and there were no people, no sounds, but only the faint sound of the wind. At this moment, Li Ye suddenly felt very happy and wanted to laugh out loud. The wildness and freedom of running in the wilderness made him so obsessed with the mood of the moment.
“It turns out to be such a pleasant thing that robbed a woman, tied her up, and carried her to run away.”
“It’s no wonder the mountain bandits like to rob young women. Compared to the feeling of bringing them back to the mountain fastness to get married, the feeling of running wildly on the way back is the most fascinating.”
Li Ye giggled.
It was a pity that the Junior Priestess didn’t speak at all. Li Ye suddenly had an evil thought that if the Junior Priestess screamed for help this moment, would it be more appropriate for the scene?
Arriving near the courier station, Li Ye didn’t put the Junior Priestess down because he was afraid that she would run away. She was a formidable enemy and he couldn’t give her a chance, so he went to the official road like this publicly.
Suddenly, Li Ye stopped and saw four people fighting in front of the courier station.
Zhang Yunhe fought against Su Emei, while the Senior Priestess fought against Wei Xiaozhuang. The momentum was great and the spiritual light shone, making the place as bright as in the daytime. The official road was littered with big and small holes, and many branches of the trees on both sides were broken and fell.
The two sides were neck and neck!
It made Li Ye feel incredulous.
He had learned about the Senior Priestess’ strength. She was an absolute expert in Level 9 of Qi-refining and her skill of the use of her white silk was superb. It couldn’t use common sense to try to figure it out. The seemingly simple strike actually had a great mystery. Even though it wasn’t as gorgeous as “Flying Leaves and Flowers”, it had the same lethality.
It was Wei Xiaozhuang who was fighting against the Senior Priestess. He was no longer the Wei Xiaozhuang whom Li Ye knew well. Right now, behind Wei Xiaozhuang who was holding a peach wood sword, there was a dark green shadow up to several meters, outlining an imposing general in armor.
The general in armor was holding a Xuanhua ax and wielding it vigorously like a tiger. Every time it fell, the wind howled. After it hit the ground, a gap at the size of several meters length and several decimeters depth remained. It was very scary that even the Senior Priestess had few chances to catch it directly.
Relying on her own flexibility, the Senior Priestess kept moving. She had no advantage when she fought with the powerful god in black armor. They fought neck and neck.
Li Ye narrowed his eyes as he saw that huge shadow.
historical
He recognized that it was God of Giant Spirit, the senior general of the Immortal Court.
Su Emei, who was having a fierce fight with Zhang Yunhe, didn’t cast any shadow, but her momentum was completely different from before. The flame patterns between her eyebrows made her look charming and majestic instead of gentle and refined.
The one-meter long sword in her hand was extremely powerful. Lots of osmanthuses were flying and falling in the air as each sword light was wielded, very beautiful. She moved swiftly and fiercely, like a flying immortal, but her movement was also sharp and overbearing.
But Zhang Yunhe was not easy to deal with. His Flying Crane Sword roared from time to time. What he chopped out was not Sword Qi but were pure white cranes. They kept emerging and flashing in the air, setting off the osmanthuses all over the sky nicely, just like the immortals fighting with each other.
After Li Ye saw Su Emei clearly, his narrowed eyes opened wide and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
He saw the shadow of God of Moon on Su Emei. The former’s temperament was too obvious, like the bright moon in the night sky which couldn’t be covered.
“Who is God of Moon?”
“Chang’e!”
Li Ye stood stunned, at a loss.
The Junior Priestess finally gave up killing Li Ye with her gaze. She slightly lifted her body on Li Ye’s shoulder and looked up at the four people who were fighting.
Li Ye’s mind was in a mess at this moment.
Before transmigration, he had reached the Spiritual Master Realm and the third realm of the Spiritual Master Realm. He just needed a chance to become an immortal. As far as the realm was concerned, he was the first person in the east Cultivation World at that time, so he knew very well about the Cultivation World.
But the things such as the manifestation of immortals and immortals descending to the human world had never happened to him and he had never heard of it at the Age of Dharma Decline of the earth.
“So, what’s going on here?”
Li Ye had no time to think much and took out his Luke Sword. Carrying the Junior Priestess who was bending her body, he walked towards the Senior Priestess and the others.
The Senior Priestess and the others also saw Li Ye.
Just at one glance, the Senior Priestess and Zhang Yunhe both felt shocked. After they hurried to retreat from the fight and got far away from the attack range of Wei Xiaozhuang and Su Emei, they stood there looking at Li Ye and the Junior Priestess in surprise.
When Su Emei and Wei Xiaozhuang saw Li Ye, they didn’t move either. Su Emei slowly retrieved her momentum, while Wei Xiaozhuang was still maintaining the shadow of God of Giant Spirit.
As the four people watched in shock, Li Ye approached, carrying the Junior Priestess.
“It’s that guy!” The Senior Priestess gnashed her teeth. “Why is the Junior Priestess carried by him on the shoulder? Is she defeated and caught?”
Zhang Yunhe’s expression became weird. Probably, the scene in front of him shocked him deeply so that after his initial flabbergasted look, he was at a loss.
“Who the hell is this guy?” Zhang Yunhe looked at Li Ye with great alertness. “How could he defeat the Junior Priestess? I’m not even sure I can defeat the Junior Priestess!”
The Senior Priestess’ face darkened and she didn’t say anything because she didn’t know what to say.
Zhang Yunhe had no intention of stopping talking. He felt so surprised that he had to say something to ease his mind. “It’s not a big deal that he has defeated the Junior Priestess, but it seems that the Junior Priestess didn’t even have a chance to run away... It’s not a big deal that she didn’t run away, but it’s weird that he carries the Junior Priestess on the shoulder and walks out in this way. It’s overwhelming! “It’s interesting, interesting. Hehehe...”
Senior Priestess was unhappy. “Don’t say much nonsense. What should we do now?”
Zhang Yunhe said, “I don’t know. I feel strange. Didn’t you say this guy is just in Level 7 of Qi-refining? How could he, a guy in Level 7 of Qi-refining, defeat the Junior Priestess? Who the hell is he?”
The Senior Priestess took a deep breath. “He is indeed just in Level 7 of Qi-refining!”
Zhang Yunhe glanced back at Su Emei and Wei Xiaozhuang, and in the end, he returned to look at Li Ye. “If the men of the Black Office all have such fighting abilities, how can we fight them?”
Li Ye went to the front of everyone, but he didn’t plan to put down the Junior Priestess. And with the Junior Priestess in his hands, he was not afraid of what they were going to do to him. He glanced at the Senior Priestess, and then, he also glanced at Zhang Yunhe. Li Ye said curiously, “You are still here, so are you waiting for me to see you off?”
The Senior Priestess said, “You!”
She just wanted to say something, but Zhang Yunhe stopped her. He looked at Li Ye carefully and said, “Who are you?”
Li Ye chuckled. “It is not important. If you two don’t want to stay, you’d better leave now, because I have something important to do and I have no time to entertain you.”
Zhang Yunhe was silent for a moment. “Okay, we leave now!”
The Senior Priestess stared at Zhang Yunhe. “What about the Junior Priestess?”
Zhang Yunhe said, “Wait for the master to save her.”
After saying this, Zhang Yunhe cupped his hands towards Li Ye. “We will meet again someday.”
Li Ye nodded. “I’m sure it won’t be too late.”
The Senior Priestess and Zhang Yunhe finally glanced at the Junior Priestess. Gnashing their teeth, they flew away.
The Junior Priestess was very calm. She had no reaction for their retreat and she didn’t turn to look at them, as if she had accepted her fate.
Wei Xiaozhuang finally withdrew the shadow of God of Giant Spirit, took a deep breath, and sat on the ground immediately. As the shadow of God of Giant Spirit dissipated, he regained his former bearing. He gasped, “I’m very tired. This woman is really hard to deal with!”
Su Emei smiled lightly. The flame patterns between her eyebrows disappeared suddenly. She glanced at Li Ye, and in the end, she looked at the Junior Priestess. “Is she the Junior Priestess?”
