2508 How to retreat safely
“Not good!” Ling Chuxi was shocked. It turned out that the old man had still begun to doubt Zi Yin and the others. He didn’t find any clues from the others, so he turned his attention back to Zi Yin’s group.
In her shock, Ling Chuxi’s state of mind naturally underwent a subtle change as she began to worry for Zi Yin and the others.
Ling Chuxi was just thinking about how she could stop this old man without revealing her identity when she saw him stop in his tracks and look at her with a playful smile on his face.
“I really didn’t expect you to have such a strong divine sense. If I’m not wrong, this is the sword heart breaking Soul Art! Your mind is quite calm. If I didn’t have my suspicions, I would have been fooled by you. ” An old and cold laugh with a hint of mockery sounded in his ears.
Ling Chuxi’s heart sank. She finally understood that his target was not Zi Yin and the others. He had only suddenly released his divine sense to test her.
He must have suspected Zi Yin and the others for a long time, but he acted too normal when he was on guard. Zi Yin and the others reacted quickly and returned to normal immediately, so he was not sure and pretended not to notice anything.
When the auction was over and he saw Zi Yin and the others leave, his mind relaxed and he naturally let down his guard. He then suddenly released his divine sense and pretended to chase after Zi Yin and the others. His concern had caused him to lose his focus and reveal a flaw, which he had caught.
It must be known that no one else had noticed his divine sense, so naturally, they didn’t show any abnormal signs. Only he had revealed a worried expression the moment he had released his divine sense to track Zi Yin and the others. Even a fool could guess what this meant.
Ling Chuxi did not think that this person’s schemes would be so deep. Without thinking, she flew towards the other city gate and escaped.
She knew that the gray-robed old man had already locked onto her as his target and would not waste any time on Zi Yin and the others. However, for safety’s sake, it was better to stay as far away from them as possible. Based on Zi Yin and the others ‘personalities, if they saw her in danger, they would definitely not abandon her and escape alone. She did not want to drag them into this quagmire.
With her full strength, Ling Chuxi was like a Phantom as she rushed out of Gulin city. The speed was so fast that even many cultivators could only see an afterimage and not the real body.
“It’s not that easy to escape. ” However, just as Ling Chuxi rushed out of the city gates, the old man’s disdainful voice came from not far behind her.
Ling Chuxi turned her head and saw that the old man was actually less than 30 feet behind her. His large sleeves fluttered in the wind and his expression was calm. He seemed to be taking a stroll in the courtyard, but his speed was extremely fast.
Ling Chuxi’s scalp went numb. Just from his speed, she could tell how strong this old man was. Chi hanbing wouldn’t be much faster than him even if she were to fly on her sword.
“Who are you? why are you following me?” Ling Chuxi knew that she would not be able to outrun the other party, so she stopped and asked sternly.
The more dangerous it was, the calmer Ling Chuxi’s heart was.
This old man’s strength was definitely not below that of the old woman who had raised the Mirage spirit insect. If she fought him head-on, she didn’t even have the slightest chance of winning. Now that the martial spirit seal had been broken into eight pieces, it was certainly impossible to use it again. How could she escape unscathed with only her grey abyss sword technique, chaotic Qi, five elements Qi, and thunderclap ninth heaven?
