Chapter 309 Cross-border Pursuit of the Enemy
He chased for a full three hours, and Afu had long since crossed countless territories.
I could only vaguely sense that the surrounding scenery was gradually becoming unfamiliar.
This was his first time visiting Jiaxian County, so he had no idea that he had already entered the territory of the Gu Xuan Dynasty.
He has only one thought in his mind right now.
Those two were definitely up to no good as they were loitering around Jiaxian County late at night.
He even wondered if these two people were related to the two men in black that his little sister had chased after back then.
He wanted to know their origins, and even more so, he wanted to ask them if they knew anything about his little sister.
Little did he know that his pursuit would nearly cost him his life.
Meanwhile, his beloved Xiaoya is currently living a carefree life at the bottom of the Abyss.
At the bottom of the Abyss, where the original three bamboo houses had collapsed, two wooden houses have been rebuilt, occupying an area even larger than before.
Leng Xiyue originally wanted to rebuild it according to the old design, but Zhang Sanfeng came along, so Yun Dan suggested changing the style, and thus it became two wooden houses facing each other.
The wooden cabin on the left connects to the kitchen and Yundan's room.
Although they are connected, they are separated and independent.
The wooden house on the right is larger than the wooden house on the left.
Because there is a hall in the middle, and the two sides are the residences of Zhang Sanfeng and Leng Xiyue respectively.
At this moment, in the open space in front of the wooden house, the three people were sitting around on the grass, with a pot of steaming food in front of them.
"Junbao, this is a new way of eating that I've been figuring out over the past six months. Isn't it delicious?"
Leng Xiyue clicked her tongue and said, "You little rascal, meeting you in this life is truly an old man's blessing!"
"Hehe...right!" Yun Dan proudly raised her chin. "I told you all that you would love it when I made it."
"Hey, to be honest! This old man is even thinking of staying in this valley now, eating your cooking every day. It's much more comfortable than all the scheming and backstabbing outside."
"Stop!" Yun Dan immediately interrupted him. "If you want to stay, then stay. I want to go back to the village!"
Then he let out a soft hum and made nonsensical accusations against Zhang Sanfeng.
"Hmph... It's all Junbao's fault!"
Zhang Sanfeng looked bewildered: "Girl, what makes you say that? Why are you blaming me instead?"
“You and this old geezer!” Yun Dan pointed at the two of them.
"All you do all day is play chess and fight each other. Can't you do something more productive?"
Leng Xiyue muttered, "There's nothing else to do here besides playing chess!"
Yun Dan was immediately angered when she heard Leng Xiyue's words.
"Damn it, you old geezer, can't you go and practice some cultivation to improve your strength?"
Zhang Sanfeng then slowly interjected, "At Fellow Daoist Leng's level, whether you cultivate or not is actually the same."
Sometimes, a single moment of sudden enlightenment is more effective than ten years of arduous practice; things will naturally fall into place then.
“Look, look, it’s Zhang Zhenren who truly understands the truth!” Leng Xiyue immediately chimed in.
"Holy crap!" Yun Dan was almost driven crazy by the two of them.
"You...you two eat and drink my food, and you're even joining me in this charade!"
"Oh...why am I so unlucky!"
As she spoke, she sat down on the grass, kicking her legs and throwing a little tantrum.
Zhang Sanfeng burst into laughter, amused: "Alright, alright, I'm getting tired of seeing this trick of yours!"
Leng Xiyue also teased, "This drama queen has been cultivating for so long, but she hasn't made any progress at all."
Just like how she sang that song again...
Who cares how much I suffer?
Who cares where my tomorrow leads? This road, ultimately…
"Stop, stop, stop!" Yun Dan felt a chill run down her spine and quickly stopped him.
"Don't try to ruin my song with that awful voice!"
"What? Did you sing it wrong?" Leng Xiyue asked innocently.
"I..." Yun Dan was so angry with the two of them that she couldn't speak.
She picked up her chopsticks, grabbed a piece of meat, and put it in his bowl: "Eat yours!"
Zhang Sanfeng was amused by her action and laughed even harder.
Leng Xiyue also picked up some meat from her bowl and put it in her mouth to chew.
Leng Xiyue seemed to be infected by Zhang Sanfeng's laughter and also burst into laughter.
The laughter and merriment echoing from the bottom of the Abyss were naturally unheard by those outside.
On the way from Gu Xuanchao's territory to Sichao, only the wind was howling.
Afu used his lightness skill to its fullest extent, chasing the two dark figures all the way from Jiaxian County.
At this moment, they were getting closer and closer to the two of them.
He suddenly flipped his wrist, and two small objects appeared in his palm.
With two sharp "whoosh" sounds, two hidden weapons shot out and aimed straight for the two men's backs.
The two dark figures reacted quite quickly.
As soon as I heard the sound of wind behind me, I immediately turned to the side to avoid it.
Although both of them dodged the hidden weapons, their speed inevitably slowed down.
Seizing this fleeting opportunity, Afu exerted force with his feet, his figure shooting out like an arrow, closing the distance by several feet.
Without hesitation, he launched two more hidden weapons.
This time, however, his opponent turned around and blocked the attack with his sword.
With two crisp "clangs," the hidden weapons were knocked to the ground.
The two were slowed down by Afu's two hidden weapons.
Taking advantage of the momentum, Afu accelerated and rushed in front of them in a few leaps, standing firmly in front of them to block their way.
He stared intently at the two men in black before him: "Are you from Shadow?"
Two dark figures stood side by side, exuding a chilling killing intent.
They neither responded nor made a move; they simply looked at each other.
"Where is my little sister?" Afu asked again, his tone urgent.
One of them suddenly spoke up and said something that Afu couldn't understand at all.
The two then drew their swords simultaneously and charged at Afu from the left and right.
Ah Fu came out unarmed, so he had to fight them bare-handed.
He remained calm, instantly activating his Linglong Divine Skill to its fullest potential, his internal energy surging through his meridians.
The man in black on the left swung his knife with heavy force, aiming straight for his face.
The man in black on the right slashed his blade diagonally, aiming for his lower body. The two worked together seamlessly, each move ruthless.
Afu lightly touched the ground with his feet and quickly retreated, avoiding the first wave of attacks from the two men.
The man in black on the left maintained his stance, while the man in black on the right also turned his blade, and the two attacked again.
Afu dodged the blade from the right, the blade almost grazing his collar and narrowly missing his clothes.
Afu kicked the man in black on his right in the chest, and the man quickly parried with his knife, and a loud "bang" was heard.
Although the opponent managed to block Afu's kick, he was still forced to retreat repeatedly by the force of the kick.
Just then, the man in black on the left seized the opportunity and slashed straight down with his long sword, which cut through the air.
Afu braced himself with his left hand on the ground, spun half a circle, and kicked the opponent's knife.
Using the force, he flipped backward, creating distance between himself and the two.
These moves all happened in the blink of an eye; each move seemed effortless, but in reality, each one was a deadly danger.
