In a dense forest about a hundred kilometers from Azure Spirit Sect.
At this moment, figures flashed, it was the people of Azure Spirit Sect fleeing.
And about a dozen kilometers behind them, the Fallen Cloud Sect's Third Elder, dressed in a black robe, and Young Sect Leader Baili Chuixiao were in hot pursuit.
"Hahaha, people of Azure Spirit Sect, you can't escape now. Surrender quickly. As long as your Sect Leader's daughter agrees to be mine, I can consider letting you go."
The lewd-faced Baili Chuixiao said.
These words reached Yu Mingkong's ears, and she gnashed her teeth so hard that blood seeped out.
"Azure Spirit Sect disciples, speed up. Don't listen to their words." The voice of the First Elder, Bai Hesheng, came from behind.
With Yu Mingkong leading and the First Elder covering the rear, the Azure Spirit Sect disciples who were hurrying felt at ease.
"Everyone, don't worry. Once we pass through this dense forest, we will reach Dragon Phoenix Mountain, where there are seniors who can protect us," Yu Mingkong said, encouragingly.
Upon hearing this, the Azure Spirit Sect disciples' expressions slightly softened, but it was inevitable that some among them had second thoughts.
"Hmph, they really refuse a toast only to drink horse pee." At this moment, the Fallen Cloud Sect's Third Elder snorted coldly from behind.
After speaking, he immediately struck a palm towards the direction where the Azure Spirit Sect disciples were fleeing. The palm print that shot out glowed with flames, growing larger and larger in the air.
Bai Hesheng, who was covering the rear, felt a slight tightening in his heart. "As expected, he is in the Nascent Soul Realm."
Bai Hesheng estimated that he could not block this palm. However, he had a high-grade Earth-tier treasure armor that could withstand it.
While thinking, he unleashed the Azure Spirit Sect's secret technique, the Qingling Mountain Shaking Fist, and punched towards the palm print.
As expected, Bai Hesheng still failed to block this attack and was forced to retreat, but he used this momentum. Bai Hesheng swiftly moved towards the Azure Spirit Sect disciples ahead.
"What a cunning old fox. Everyone, use your movement techniques and quickly chase after him with me. Be careful, delays can lead to complications," the Fallen Cloud Sect's Third Elder said.
Thus, the two groups, one chasing and one fleeing, sped towards Dragon Phoenix Mountain.
Dragon Phoenix Mountain.
Spiritual birds chirped incessantly, and the gentle sunlight shone through the mountain forest.
Inside an unassuming small courtyard, faint snores could be heard.
In the small courtyard, the white-clothed young man was still lying quietly on the rocking chair. Beside him, in a dog kennel, a black dog gnawed on a large bone, and the bone exuded a fierce aura.
A sound entered the black dog's ears.
The black dog put down the bone and stared at the dense forest dozens of miles away. In its eyes, the scene of two groups of humans, one chasing and one fleeing, was reflected, and their destination was its and its master's courtyard.
Among the first group of people, the black dog saw a familiar figure.
"It's her. Master said before that she would come again, and I didn't expect her to actually come. It's just that she brought too many people. I wonder if Master will be happy."
While thinking, the black dog barked twice towards the direction of the two groups of people.
The sound seemed to ignore distance, directly reaching the Azure Spirit Sect and the Fallen Cloud Sect.
"Woof woof."
The sound directly entered everyone's minds, causing all of the Fallen Cloud Sect and Azure Spirit Sect members, who were on their way, to feel dizzy.
Hearing this familiar dog bark, Yu Mingkong was somewhat surprised.
"Everyone, hold on. The dog bark just now was from the senior's dog," Yu Mingkong said.
At this moment, a female disciple from Azure Spirit Sect said, "Senior Sister, I don't feel like that dog bark just now was welcoming us. Instead, it seemed to carry a sense of driving us away."
"It's fine. This senior is quite eccentric and doesn't like to talk to outsiders. His dog is also very spiritual."
Thinking of this, Yu Mingkong also shivered. She knew how terrifying that dog was.
Just as they were talking, an angry voice came from within the Fallen Cloud Sect.
"Damn it, where did that wild dog come from, barking so loudly, it almost deafened me." It was the Fallen Cloud Sect's Young Sect Leader, Baili Chuixiao, speaking.
The dog bark just now had almost made him fall from the sky, luckily the Third Elder had supported him.
Seeing this scene, Yu Mingkong didn't say anything, only hoping that this person wouldn't be too miserable later.
About half an incense stick later, Yu Mingkong led the Azure Spirit Sect disciples to Wang Yufan's courtyard.
When the Azure Spirit Sect disciples and the First Elder arrived at the courtyard and saw the white-clothed young man lying on the rocking chair and the black dog resting in the shade of a tree, they were full of doubts.
"Mingkong, we didn't come to the wrong place, did we? Please quickly invite out the senior who saved you last time. The people from the Fallen Cloud Sect who are pursuing us will be here soon," the First Elder, Bai Hesheng, said.
Yu Mingkong then said, "He is the senior who saved me last time."
As she spoke, under everyone's gaze, Yu Mingkong raised her right hand and pointed at the young man lying in the rocking chair.
"How is this possible? That young man is about your age. Even if he has the ability to save you, it's reasonable, but you say he can save our sect? Mingkong, are you joking?"
The First Elder was somewhat angry at this moment. He felt that Yu Mingkong was perhaps joking with the lives of the Azure Spirit Sect disciples.
But Yu Mingkong's next words shattered their perceptions.
"No, First Elder. I'm not talking about the young man lying down. I'm talking about that black dog senior lying on the ground," Yu Mingkong said.
Thump. Thump. Thump.
The First Elder retreated a few steps. He felt that Yu Mingkong must be crazy. How could a dog be the senior she spoke of?
In Heavenly Desolate World, there are demonic beasts that cultivate.
But Bai Hesheng had already investigated just now, and neither the man nor the dog had any spiritual energy fluctuations emanating from them.
Just then, a frantic laugh appeared.
"Hahaha, people of Azure Spirit Sect, why aren't you running? Why have you stopped? Now you can't leave." The Fallen Cloud Sect's Third Elder led the Fallen Cloud Sect members and swept down from the sky.
"Mingkong, later you take the Azure Spirit Sect disciples and escape. Go as far as you can," Bai Hesheng secretly transmitted to Yu Mingkong.
He simply did not take Yu Mingkong's words just now to heart.
Yu Mingkong also transmitted back.
"First Elder, I didn't lie to you. It was indeed that black dog that saved me. Everything I said is true."
Bai Hesheng looked at Yu Mingkong, not knowing what to say. It wasn't that he didn't believe her, it was that he simply didn't believe her. He didn't know how he would explain it to the ancestors of the Azure Spirit Sect after his death.
"Hahaha, Mingkong, if you just agree to be mine, I'll have the Third Elder let you go. If you surrender, that would be even better, wouldn't it?"
"Look at your delicate skin, it makes my heart itch just looking at it. I really want to play games with you, going in and out."
Baili Chuixiao continued, his eyes constantly scanning Yu Mingkong's body, an gaze that seemed to want to devour Yu Mingkong.
Yu Mingkong felt extremely uncomfortable at this moment.
"You lecher, watch your eyes, or I'll dig them out."
Yu Mingkong said, then bowed to the young man and the black dog in the courtyard, saying.
"Seniors, please save the people of our sect. Our sect only wishes to cultivate immortality peacefully and pursue the pinnacle of dao. However, this Fallen Cloud Sect is ambitious and wants to dominate Southern Desolate Barren under one banner, and they are targeting our sect's disciples. They are all innocent people. Please, senior, rescue us."
Yu Mingkong finished speaking and quietly waited for a response, but all that came was the young man's snoring and the sound of the black dog gnawing on a bone beside him.
