"Err... Just so you know, the number of assassins chasing after us seems to keep increasing!" Perfect copy informed Tang Li Xue with a frustrated tone.

At first, it was only seven or eight black-clothed assassins that were chasing after them, but now, there were already more than fifteen black-clothed assassins.

But it all made sense since the flying speed and cultivation level of each assassin were different.

The first seven or eight assassins to arrive was the one with the 5th or 6th Rank of Core Formation Stage Cultivation plus their higher level flying treasure, so naturally they could catch up with Tang Li Xue faster than the others.

"I know! I can also sense all of them with [Extrasensory Perception]! Just try to hold on a little bit longer!" Tang Li Xue stated solemnly.

Tang Li Xue still did not know about what had happened on Little Seventh's side just now, so she was still desperately trying to stall for more time and attract these assassins' attention just so Little Seventh could run further.

Fortunately, these black-clothed assassins still remained cautious of her fatal counterattack, so they still decided to keep their distance from her and only throw attacks from afar to wear her down slowly.

Thus, the current situation was actually not as bad as Tang Li Xue previously imagined.

If these black-clothed assassins threw their lives away by crazily attacking her one by one like a bunch of rabid dogs, then Tang Li Xue would certainly have already been exhausted to death much earlier.

Another wave of attacks almost struck Tang Li Xue's flying disk, but she quickly drove her flying disk in the Z pattern to dodge it.

Her perfect copy had also already prepared to defend by condensing a transparent shield with her [Energy Manipulation] to block the incoming attacks if they somewhat still hit them.

"Damn it! Aren't Core Formation Stage Cultivators supposed to be rare? How could there be so many of them gathered here just to hunt us down?!" The perfect copy complained again while gnashing her pearl-white teeth in annoyance.

Tang Li Xue frowned deeply and also felt puzzled by it.

But Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy did not know that Assassin Tower was actually a loose organization.

Anyone could put in the bounty task to Assassin Tower, and anyone could register as an assassin in Assassin Tower.

Most of these black-clothed assassins here might probably be elders from the four evil sects or even from the five virtuous sects who were hiding their identities.

After all, it was every cultivator's desire to always wanted to obtain more cultivation resources, so they could get stronger and breakthrough to a higher cultivation level.

As long as any cultivator has a lot of cultivation resources such as spirit stones, they could easily buy pills, treasures, precious herbs, talismans, formations, hire bodyguards, build their own sect, and so on to increase their strength and self-protection or increase the speed of their cultivation.

The cultivation resources here were the same as money in Tang Li Xue's previous world.

No, cultivation resources should be many times more precious than money because many things still could not be bought with money.

Compared to individual cultivation talent, cultivation resources were actually very much more important.

Did you have a low-rank spiritual root?

Then spent hundreds of times of cultivation resources, and your cultivation will surely catch up with top-rank spiritual roots!

Did your cultivation face a bottleneck?

Then spent a lot of cultivation resources to buy a barrier-breaking pill!

One barrier-breaking pill was not enough to make you breakthrough the bottleneck?

Then spam hundreds of barrier-breaking pills! Even if you are a donkey or mentally retarded, you will surely breakthrough to a higher rank!

Did your martial art talent or comprehension level suck?

No worries! Just spent tons of cultivation resources to buy millions of talismans, and you no longer need to learn any spell or martial art!

Of course, the main reason why the cultivation level of this Lightwind Continent was too low because the high-level cultivation resources here were too scarce.

Well... In short, it was not strange that so many assassins came here to hunt Tang Li Xue since the bounty reward was extremely rich.

As for the reason why so many Core Formation Stage Assassins could gather so quickly in this small town to hunt Tang Li Xue down... It was actually closely related to the previous incident caused by Mo Chonglin and his people!

Yes, most of these assassins were actually the elders from five virtuous sects with the intention to search for their missing core disciples.

But when they received the bounty information about Tang Li Xue from the agent of Assassin Tower, they immediately came here instead to kill Tang Li Xue first.

At first, they thought this would be an easy task with rich rewards, but who knew that they underestimated Tang Li Xue too much!

Moreover, these black-clothed assassins already spent so much effort and talismans, so they were unwilling to give up halfway even though many of their comrades had already been killed by Tang Li Xue before.

Thirty black-clothed assassins gathered here together to chase Tang Li Xue right now, and they became even more courageous as they bombarded Tang Li Xue even more frequently.

BOOOOOOMMM~!!! BOOOOOOMMM~!!! BOOOOOOMMM~!!!

Tang Li Xue's perfect copy tried her best to defend against their bombardment with her [Energy Manipulation], but the transparent shield she condensed was shattered again and again.

"This is not good! Their attacks are getting more and more fiercer than before! Why don't you use your blue flames again and kick their *ss?!" The perfect copy suggested in panic.

Tang Li Xue replied angrily: "Do you think my stamina is unlimited?! I already used [Golden Winged Serpent] to heal a whole street full of people and used Flame of Pride to condense several [Fire Bombs] before! My stamina is already almost exhausted!"

"Then what the hell are you waiting for?! Do you want to die so badly?! Let's just retreat from here as soon as possible!" The perfect copy scolded back.

When Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy quarreled with each other, the groups of assassins launched another wave of bombardment toward them!

BOOOOOOMMM~!!! BOOOOOOMMM~!!! BOOOOOOMMM~!!!

Tang Li Xue drove her flying disk to dodge them, but around a third of their attacks still managed to hit the perfect copy's transparent shield and her flying disk.

The transparent shield was shattered again to pieces and even her flying disk was filled with countless cracks now.

"We cannot hold on anymore!" The perfect copy warned with a solemn tone.

"I know! Just hold on a little bit longer... They clearly wait for a stronger assassin's reinforcement team to come here before finishing us together! After their reinforcement come here to hunt us, we will retreat from here immediately!" Tang Li Xue explained her intention.

Tang Li Xue was afraid if she retreated right now, the stronger assassin's reinforcement team would chase after Little Seventh instead.

"You idiot, you still think about that little girl even in a critical time like this! What if we are too exhausted to retreat later when their reinforcements arrive here!" The perfect copy grabbed Tang Li Xue's collar and scolded her more harshly.

Although Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy have one soul, but they have two different bodies and two different minds, so sometimes their idea might not match with each other.

It might be the same as your mind wanting to study to get good grades, but your body wants to sleep instead.

"Ok, I get it! Let their attacks hit us, and we will pretend to fall to the ground! Then we will use [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] to escape from here." Tang Li Xue gnashed her pearl-white teeth and finally agreed with her perfect copy.

With her [Extrasensory Perception], Tang Li Xue already sensed that the group of black-clothed assassins behind them had launched another wave of attack.

Tang Li Xue deliberately slowed down her flying disk a bit and let a few attacks strike her flying disk.

BOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!

Her flying disk shattered to pieces and both Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy fell down from the sky.

"They fall down! Let's finish them off now!" One of the black-clothed assassins shouted excitedly.

"Wait! What if this is their scheme to lure us closer to them?! I think we should stick to our original plan and not act rashly." The other assassin suggested calmly.

"Coward! How could you become an assassin with that kind of timid spirit!" The first assassin sneered mockingly.

Some of the assassins started to argue, but the assassin's leader started to appease them: "All right, that is enough! We will stick to our original plan. Don't forget that these young girls have already taken down three teams of our comrades, so we should not underestimate them!"

Unfortunately for these assassins, their current choice was the one Tang Li Xue hoped for the most.

As she and her perfect copy landed in the nearby forest, they quickly activated their [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment].

Their slender figures turned invisible, and all of their traces were completely covered in that instant.

'As usual, we will be running in two different directions to be safer.' Tang Li Xue instructed her perfect copy from their mental connection.

Tang Li Xue's perfect copy nodded, and then she used [Moonlight Flickering Flash Step] to run toward the east.

The real Tang Li Xue also used [Moonlight Flickering Flash Step], but she ran toward the west.

Meanwhile, the black-clothed assassins were completely puzzled since Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy seemed to have vanished into thin air.
