Chapter 3679: Xiao Qiao was attacked

Translator: 549690339

Lin Yi took out the map and decided to make an exception by traveling through the night. He had to get to the back mountain Hall before Meng Tong and the others.

Xiao ran and Qiao hongcai’s current situation could only be attributed to two possibilities. Either the herbs had been snatched away, or the herbs hadn’t been snatched away and were still on the run.

No matter what the outcome was, the two of them and Meng Tong’s group would have to return to the rear Mountain Hall before noon tomorrow. Otherwise, according to the words of the bald elder, no matter who it was, they would all die a miserable death!

That made things simple-Lin Yi just needed to defend the path he had to take before everyone else did. It didn’t matter if he ran into Xiao ran, Qiao hongcai, or Meng Tong and the others first, it would solve the problem.

As long as one had great strength, no matter how complicated the problem was, it could be easily solved.

The sky was getting darker, and Lin Yi put Skybolt pig into the Jade space before setting off.

As mentioned before, even in the outer area of the mountain, where the danger level was the lowest, moving at night was extremely dangerous, even for an early Foundation Stage practitioner like Lin Yi.

This was because not only would one’s perception be weakened, it was easy to get lost, and it was also easy to bump into powerful spirit beasts that one could not see during the day. It must be known that by nature, many spirit beasts would only come out at night to hunt for food.

To put it simply, Lin Yi had a 50% chance of winning against an early Foundation Stage spirit beast in the day, but he might not even have a 30% chance at night.

No matter how powerful a cultivator was, one thing that could not be changed from the beginning to the end was that humans were not nocturnal creatures. The dark night had always stood on the opposite side of mankind.

Fortunately, the moon was bright tonight, and Lin Yi didn’t get lost halfway.

He ran past quite a few powerful spirit beasts along the way, some of which were even more dangerous than the Nine-Tailed cloud piercer leopard, but Lin Yi avoided them all.

Of course, even if they couldn’t avoid it, it wouldn’t be a problem. There was still the God of spirit beasts guarding the space of the jade pendant. Wouldn’t it be a matter of minutes to scare away these spirit beasts who were only at the early stage of the foundation building realm?

After a whole night of traveling, Lin Yi finally reached his destination when the sky turned bright.

His current location was less than twenty miles away from the back mountain Hall. It was a rare open space in the outer area of the back mountain. The reason was that there was an ancient tree that was three hundred feet tall.

In the surrounding dense forest, the tallest one was less than 100 feet tall. This ancient tree could be said to be a crane standing among chickens. Its huge crown blocked a large area of the sun, so naturally, nothing could grow below it, so it appeared quite empty.

Standing on top of the tree, the excellent view meant that he could perfectly monitor everything around him, and this happened to be on the road that he had to pass on his way back to the back mountain Hall. Lin Yi didn’t know what the other Pavilion’s and mysterious Pavilion’s newbies were doing, but at least the GreenCloud Pavilion’s newbies that were sent in this direction couldn’t escape from his eyes.

From Lin Yi’s height, he could see if one or two people were moving stealthily, but it was impossible if Meng Tong and the others were moving in a group.

After an hour, as Lin Yi expected, there was a commotion not far away from the ground, startling a bunch of weak birds.

Someone was approaching quickly, and there were quite a few of them!

Lin Yi observed carefully, and his lips curled up into a playful smile. Judging from the movement, those people seemed to be coming toward him!

“Brother Xiao, you go first, I’ll Cover You! In any case, all the herbs on me have already been snatched away. They can’t do anything to me!” Qiao hongcai suggested anxiously as he followed Xiao ran through the forest.

Xiao ran and Qiao hongcai’s initial drop-off point wasn’t like Lin Yi ‘s, who had been dropped off in the most dangerous area on the outer edge of the mountain. They didn’t receive any special treatment, and everything went smoothly at the start. They managed to collect quite a lot of herbs, but that was where the problem was.

Their drop-off point was not far from the other rookies. After just one day, the two of them naturally ran into the other rookies and were immediately targeted by Meng Tong and the others.

Just as the two of them were about to meet up with Lin Yi at sanxikou, Qiao hongcai was the first to be ambushed. He couldn’t deal with Meng Tong’s group with his strength alone. All the herbs he had collected were taken away, and he was injured.

If it wasn’t for the bald elder’s repeated warnings not to kill, he would have been the first newcomer to die in the trial.

After successfully ambushing and taunting Qiao hongcai, Meng Tong’s group turned to deal with Xiao ran. However, Qiao hongcai, who had been following them, found Xiao ran first, causing Meng Tong’s plan to fail and allowing the two to break out of the encirclement.

Just as Lin Yi had predicted, the two of them didn’t want to drag Lin Yi down. They decided to give up on going to the three streams and turned to the back of the mountain Hall. As long as they could get to the back of the mountain Hall before Meng Tong and his gang caught up to them, they wouldn’t be able to take Xiao ran’s herbs even after the trial was over.

As a result, the two of them were madly running in front while they chased after Meng Tong’s group several dozen meters behind them.

Qiao hongcai was already injured, and Xiao ran had consumed a lot of his genuine Qi when he broke out of the encirclement. After running at full speed for a while, his genuine Qi was about to run out. If this continued, the two of them would probably fall before they even reached the rear Mountain Hall.

At this time, Qiao Hong made this suggestion. Obviously, he had the idea of not being afraid of wearing shoes. In any case, he had run out of herbs, and Meng Tong and his gang didn’t dare to kill him directly. It was better to drag on as long as possible than to fall down together.

Unexpectedly, Xiao ran denied it while panting heavily,””No! Although they don’t dare to kill you directly, you’ve ruined their business. In their anger, they might cripple you and cripple your cultivation. I can’t let you take this risk!”

Hearing Xiao ran’s words, Qiao hongcai was shocked and felt a lingering fear.

That’s right, although the rules of the trial stated that killing was not allowed, there was no rule that said that one could not cripple a person. If his cultivation was really crippled and he became a cripple from then on, that would be worse than death!

“Then what should we do? If we continue to run like this, we’ll exhaust ourselves to death without them even having to do anything!” Qiao hongcai said anxiously.
