Chapter 270: 270

Ning Wuque sneered as Mu Yi tried to run away . If Mu Yi hadn’t stopped before, he might have lived but it was too late .

Watching Mu Yi’s escape, Ning Wuque whispered a sentence suddenly, “A sword is shining on nineteen continents!”

The peach wood sword shined brightly .

Mu Yi was running away with all his strength, but he was frozen suddenly, and there was a great fear in his heart . The power of this attack was beyond the previous one . It was Ning Wuque’s unique skill . Even if Mu Yi ran away with all his strength, he would be killed .

Without thinking about it, Mu Yi exploded . His body turned red, and he looked like a big stove . Deep inside, the three chakras glowed brightly enough to be seen through his skin . His Qi surged wildly into the Bamboo Tree of Life without reservation .

He turned around and waved the Bamboo Tree of Life .

“Boom!”

A series of dazzling firelights flashed, and Mu Yi was hit hard . His body crackled and fell on the ground like a ragged bag . He had blocked the killer sword, and the peach wood sword fell into the darkness in an instant .

Ning Wuque was shocked and a trace of blood flowed from his mouth . When Mu Yi repelled the peach wood sword, he hit Ning Wuque’s spirit power he left on it, so his spirit was hurt slightly . Mu Yi’s attack was brilliant . After all, Ning Wuque had reached the peak of the second difficulty already and began to control the power of heaven and earth .

One of the reasons why Mu Yi could hurt him was that he was strong enough, and the other was that he was a little careless . However, the attack gave Mu Yi a chance .

As he landed, Mu Yi got up and ran into the distance frantically .

Ning Wuque wanted to catch with Mu Yi immediately, but he turned to find the peach wood sword . When he saw that the peach wood sword was full of tiny cracks, his expression was gloomy, and his eyes were full of murderous intent .

“I will kill you and cut you to pieces . ” Ning Wuque put away the peach wood sword, then chased after Mu Yi .

Mu Yi didn’t know how long he ran, and his strength was failing . He was running only on determination . From midnight to morning, he ran until he couldn’t hold on any longer and fell into a big river . After a few moments, there was no trace of him .

Half an hour later, Ning Wuque arrived . With his accomplishments, he was a embarrassed . Looking into the rolling river in front of him, he could no longer feel Mu Yi’s breath . He slapped his hand in the water with anger . The strength of his hand ran through the bottom of the river .

“Don’t believe you can run . ” Ning Wuque stayed in place for about ten seconds . Then, he tracked across the river and disappeared .

After a while, Ning Wuque went back to the river again . He had searched the opposite bank, but there was no trace of him .

Ning Wuque thought about it for a moment and followed the river . In his opinion, since Mu Yi hid his breath with the help of the river, he was bound to walk in the opposite direction . By the time the sun rose, Ning Wuque still hadn’t found Mu Yi .

Although he was unwilling to admit it, he had to accept that Mu Yi had escaped . He was furious . Besides killing Mu Yi, he wanted to get the bamboo slip from Mu Yi .

“I’ll catch you sooner or later . ”

Then, Ning Wuque left .

Where is Mu Yi at this time? Mu Yi didn’t know . After falling into the river, he passed out and was carried away to wherever the river wanted .

If Ning Wuque had stayed in the lower parts for a while, he would have found the fishing boat that had saved Mu Yi .

Mu Yi didn’t know how long he was unconscious . When he woke up, he had a splitting headache . His body was in pain, and his throat was burning .

Mu Yi’s first reaction was to guard . Unfortunately, he didn’t have any strength . He was exhausted and powerless .

“Where am I?”

Mu Yi began to look around . There was a scent on the bed, not a perfume but a pure body scent . Looking at the surrounding environment, the house was a bit dilapidated, and there were a few pieces of decent furniture arranged that made him think it was a woman’s boudoir .

Thinking of this, Mu Yi felt relieved . It seemed that he had escaped . Ning Wuque would not have treated him like this . Mu Yi struggled to get up . His Taoist robe was missing, and he had been changed into clothes made of coarse cloth . It made him nervous . He was afraid that he had lost the Bamboo Tree of Life and the copper lamp .

Then, Mu Yi saw the Bamboo Tree of Life, copper lamp, and three jade boxes lying on the bed and was relieved .

Soon, Mu Yi heard the sound of footsteps outside, and then the door was opened . Then, a sixteen-year-old girl walked into the room . She was a little dark and could be regarded as pretty . She looked simple and walked in carefully with a bowl of medicinal soup in her hands .

When she saw Mu Yi was awake, there was a surprise on her face, “Hello, Taoist . ”

“Thank you very much for your help . ”

The girl shook her head immediately, “It wasn’t me, but Da Niu next door who brought you back . At first, everyone thought you would die, but Da Niu believed you wouldn’t die . ”

She seemed a little flustered . She was not used to being looked at like this obviously .

“Oh, why does he think I wouldn’t die?” Mu Yi was a little surprised and a little more curious about the rescuer .

“I don’t know . Da Niu said that you were not an ordinary person . You wouldn’t die, but his family has some special circumstances, so you could only stay here . ”

Seeing the reaction as she spoke about Da Niu, there must be something between them .

Mu Yi nodded, “Thank you anyway . ”

He didn’t mention a reward . In his current state, he couldn’t beat an ordinary adult . Even if he wanted to repay their kindness, he had to wait for his strength to recover .

“You’re welcome . This is medicine for you . Please drink it . ” The girl handed the soup to Mu Yi .

Mu Yi reached out his hands to take it . It was painful . He grit his teeth and didn’t say a word, drinking the medicinal soup with difficulty . The medicinal soup was ordinary, but it was better than nothing . It was important for him to recover a little more strength now .

Mu Yi looked at the nervous girl and smiled, “Thank you . ”

He didn’t know that he wasn’t actually smiling and looked terrible . Mu Yi’s face was pale as a ghost, and his muscles were so stiff that he had no expression .

“You are welcome . I’ll tell Da Niu . ” The girl took the bowl and hurried away, as if he were a beast that ate people .

Mu Yi shook his head and began to explore his body . If his body hadn’t been tempered by the lamp, he would have been dead .

It was thanks to Nian Nuer who hadn’t hesitated to explode her power so that he could escape .

Fortunately, Nian Nuer had become the spirit of the Bamboo Tree of Life already . To some extent, as long as the Bamboo Tree of Life was not destroyed, she was alive and he could rebuild her body as long as there was a bit of her real spirit left . However, it would take a lot of time and energy .

Therefore, Mu Yi needed to restore his strength urgently so that he could hunt ghosts and get energy to rebuild Nian Nuer’s body as soon as possible .

“Ning Wuque . I’ll kill you sooner or later . ”

Mu Yi thought that Ning Wuque was cruel, and there was a hatred in his heart . He had never been so eager to get revenge on someone . Although Ning Wuque was stronger than him, he would not be afraid .

Now, he had a thorough understanding of the peak of the second difficulty, so he would be well prepared to take revenge when given the chance .

Later, Mu Yi took the lamp, and lit it with the last of his mental power . He placed it on his abdomen, closed his eyes, and began to settle .

As he began to settle, his breath merged with the lamp gradually, and the light blue flame began to beat, and then a little blue mist rose up . It flowed into Mu Yi’s mouth and nose slowly .

During his recovery, he felt that someone had come in, but the man had no hostility, so he did not wake up . It would take a long time to recover .
