C793 Desperate Escape

In an almost impossible situation, Du Qi's body quickly slid backwards, sticking close to the ground. He then turned around and circled behind a big tree beside him. Then, with a flash, he floated towards another big tree.

Seeing that Du Qi had actually escaped his full power slash, Dugu Wendao couldn't help but feel slightly surprised. He couldn't help but be slightly startled. In an instant, Du Qi had already dodged behind the tree.

Dugu Wendao was naturally unwilling to let Du Qi escape. He hurriedly shook the saber in his hand, and it shot out a brilliant light. It stirred up a wild gale, and shot towards Du Qi's back.

Du Qi deliberately wanted to escape, so the measures he took were not wrong. The movement technique he used was not slow, but there was still a gap between him and Dugu Wendao. Just as he was running towards the third tree, Dugu Wendao's blade had already arrived behind him.

Even though he knew that Dugu Wendao's blade was already behind him, Du Qi did not dare to turn around to face it. He could only continue to push forward with all his might in order to minimize the damage.

"Oh!" A powerful force hit his left shoulder. Du Qi felt his entire body shake, and couldn't help but cry out in pain. However, he didn't dare to stop for even a moment, and hurriedly used the force to rush forward even faster than before.

He bypassed the third tree, and had yet to reach the fourth tree. Du Qi once again felt the wave of blade energy behind him. He knew that Dugu Wendao had attacked again. He knew that even if he could dodge Dugu Wendao's saber, it would still be difficult for him to escape Dugu Wendao's next slash. Furthermore, he was simply unable to dodge Dugu Wendao's attack, let alone know how he would be injured under this attack. Even if this blade couldn't take his life, it would still be extremely difficult for him to escape from Dugu Wendao's blade today. However, Du Qi wasn't willing to give up just like that, and could only throw himself forward with all his might. In order to reduce Dugu Wendao's damage to him.

Suddenly, a furious roar sounded out. "How dare you, beast!"

In order to save Du Qi from danger, Jiaojiao's figure had suddenly expanded. She had already become over three meters long and as thick as a bowl. At this moment, she had just landed on the ground. When she saw that Du Qi was in danger, she didn't care about her own feelings and hurriedly increased her body size. He suddenly jumped up and spat out a poisonous mist at Dugu Wendao. He opened his mouth wide and bit toward Dugu Wendao's head. At the same time, he swung his huge tail. He resolutely charged towards Dugu Wendao's blade.

Although Dugu Wendao knew that Du Qi was using a different type of poisonous snake to deal with him, he didn't expect that poisonous snake to be able to change its shape again and again. At this moment, it was still the poisonous snake he saw just now. It was clearly a twenty feet long giant python. Although he had always thought highly of himself, he didn't dare to look down on the current Jiaojiao. After being shocked, he couldn't help but let out a furious roar. He had no choice but to give up on chasing after Du Qi. He was going to use all his strength to deal with Jiaojiao's attack.

Facing the poisonous mist that Jiaojiao had sprayed out, Dugu Wendao didn't dare to be careless anymore. He hastily stopped his advance and retreated. Then, he waved his left palm and a powerful palm force dispersed the poisonous mist in front of him. At the same time, he pushed Jiaojiao's giant head to the side.

Dugu Wendao's movement wasn't limited to this. The saber that was attacking Du Qi suddenly spun around and struck Jiaojiao's giant tail. It actually sent Jiaojiao, who was over twenty meters long, flying over ten meters away.

Although Jiaojiao and Dugu Wendao were entangled for only a split second, this split second was enough for Du Qi to pull away from Dugu Wendao and get out of Dugu Wendao's attack range.

Seeing that Du Qi had already escaped, Dugu Wendao no longer cared about Jiaojiao who was slashed by him. He suddenly roared and shook the blade in his hand, chasing after Du Qi with all his might.

Just as he was feeling desperate and terrified in his heart, Du Qi suddenly felt the saber energy behind him pause. Immediately after that, it disappeared. He knew that it was Jiaojiao who was trying her best to help him. He couldn't help but be overjoyed, and hastily threw himself forward with even more force. He quickly hid behind the fourth tree and quickly dodged. He turned around and hid behind the fifth tree.

Although he had already escaped from Dugu Wendao's attack range, he could feel that Dugu Wendao was still chasing closely behind. Du Qi didn't dare to stop at all. He could only make a left and right turn in the dense forest and push forward with all his might. He just didn't know what Jiaojiao's current situation was like.

Just as he was secretly worried about Jiaojiao, a foul wind suddenly blew. The branches on top of his head made a rustling sound. Du Qi wasn't surprised but happy instead. He hastily shouted, "Jiaojiao, come back quickly!"

Just as Du Qi's voice faded, a six meter long Jiaojiao appeared. He shot towards Du Qi from a tree close to his left. When she reached Du Qi's side, Jiaojiao had already condensed into a line and softly rested on Du Qi's shoulder, who was still running wildly. She drilled into Du Qi's left sleeve through his collar and gently wrapped around his left arm.

Although Dugu Wendao's movement speed was much higher than Du Qi's, Du Qi was already injured. However, he was unable to catch up to Du Qi in the dense forest, and the distance between them grew wider and wider. Dugu Wendao couldn't help but feel a great anger. He charged forward recklessly, and it was unknown just how many giant tree branches he broke. What made him even angrier and angrier was that along the way, there would be huge pythons and small snakes that would pounce on him from time to time, even though he wasn't afraid. However, he couldn't bear the disturbance, and his speed was greatly reduced.

Last time, when Dugu Wendao had just killed Ren Dongming in Deer Gate Mountain, Du Qi had wanted to use Jiaojiao's strength to kill Dugu Wendao to avenge Ren Dongming. However, he didn't get what he wanted. Later on, although he was exhausted and injured many times, his cultivation had improved significantly. This time, he unintentionally met Dugu Wendao, and naturally wanted to kill him. He wanted to take revenge for Ren Dongming and get rid of the evil in the Jianghu. Who would have thought that after exchanging blows, he would not only overestimate his own strength. After exchanging blows for only a short while, he was seriously injured.

Although Du Qi was seriously injured, in order to save his life, at this moment, using all of his strength was not an easy task. His momentum was like thunder. He was as fast as lightning. Along the way, Jiaojiao secretly ordered all the poisonous insects and giant pythons she encountered to stop Dugu Wendao. However, he was still unable to escape Dugu Wendao's pursuit.

Although the distance between them wasn't too far, Du Qi had already felt mentally and physically exhausted. He only wanted to immediately stop and take a good rest, but thinking of Dugu Wendao's tyrannical strength, Du Qi didn't want to face Dugu Wendao at this moment. He could only fight with all his might to advance forward.

With the current situation, Du Qi didn't dare to have any thoughts of getting rid of Dugu Wendao's pursuit. Since that was the case, why not go to the designated target?

After thinking for a while, Du Qi calmed down instead. Regardless of whether Dugu Wendao was still chasing after him or not, he just used all of his strength to follow the direction of the previous envoy.

As he ran, Du Qi felt his mind relax, and then a wave of wild joy surged. It turned out that he had unknowingly escaped Dugu Wendao's spiritual perception detection and knew that Dugu Wendao would chase after him again. Thus, he hurriedly changed his route. Without leaving behind a trace, he headed towards the southwest, until he ran for more than thirty miles and could not hold on any longer. He found a rather hidden small cave and fell to the ground.

As soon as Du Qi sat down, Jiaojiao slid off his arm and softly fell to the ground. Du Qi was shocked and quickly grabbed Jiaojiao. He saw that Jiaojiao's tail was badly mutilated. It was obvious that Jiaojiao's injury wasn't light after Dugu Wendao's slash.
