Hei Lian's appearance made Loong Xiaoyun and Loong Ziyuan feel greatly surprised. At the same time, they were also facing great danger. Knowing that Hei Lian had come to kill him, Loong Xiaoyun harbored his thoughts and directly used Loong Family's strongest killing move, the Dragon-soaring of Nine Heavens.

The world was big, and there were so many martial arts moves. There was no lack of exquisite moves. However, moves were just moves, and were a way for one's own martial arts to vent their feelings. It still depended on one's strength when attacking. To put it bluntly, the same move had a completely different power when used by different people.

Loong Xiaoyun had long understood the concept of Dragon-soaring of Nine Heavens, so he did it naturally and without any delay. A dragon-shaped shadow swooped down from the sky. Its aura was majestic and had the strength of a thousand jin. However, Loong Xiaoyun's Cultivation Level only had Fifth Heaven of First Grade. When facing the Fifth Heaven of Second Grade's Hei Lian, Hei Lian did not fear the might of the Dragon-soaring of Nine Heavens at all.

"You dare to show off at such a low level of skill?" "You're courting death!" The huge sickle in Hei Lian's hand casually waved and became a black-coloured wave of air that pounced towards Loong Xiaoyun who was in the air.

Loong Xiaoyun had already activated his Dragon-soaring of Nine Heavens, and his figure rapidly descended. At this moment, he was unable to dodge at all, and could only watch helplessly as the black energy wave streaked past his chest. Immediately, blood dripped from the wound, while a one-meter-long gash appeared on Loong Xiaoyun's chest.

"Ah!" The intense pain made Loong Xiaoyun grunt in pain. He couldn't help but exclaim in his heart, "Is this Hei Lian's method? You don't even need to get close to them to injure them!

Loong Xiaoyun was not someone who would easily admit defeat. Although the senior in front of him had made a cut, he was unable to block Loong Xiaoyun's attack. Even though he knew that this move of his might not have any effect on Hei Lian, the arrow was already at the bow and he had no choice but to fire! Therefore, with a loud shout, Liu Da was like a roaring dragon, blotting out the sky and charging towards Hei Lian.

"You have guts, but you are courting death!" The corner of Hei Lian's mouth curled up as he faced Loong Xiaoyun raising his hand that was holding the sickle. He did not dodge at all and was prepared to face Loong Xiaoyun's move head on.

"Clang!" Loong Xiaoyun used the momentum of his descent to swing his short sword towards Hei Lian. However, he was completely blocked by Hei Lian's sickle.

"Go to hell!" The power of the Fifth Heaven of Second Grade directly shattered the short sword in Loong Xiaoyun's hand. Not only that, the strong backlash also made Loong Xiaoyun feel as if he had suffered a heavy impact. He immediately spat out a mouthful of blood, and his body was involuntarily bounced back.

"Brat, stop struggling. This lord has been in business for so long, and the deal has never failed. You better accept your fate!" Whether it was in aura or strength, Hei Lian was far superior to Loong Xiaoyun. Therefore, Hei Lian did not think that Loong Xiaoyun would pose any threat to him.

"Look at my concealed weapon!" Loong Xiaoyun waved his hand and threw out a bunch of white balls towards Hei Lian's face.

Hei Lian was not flustered. With a wave of the sickle in his hand, Loong Xiaoyun's hidden weapon was shattered into pieces and turned into a cloud of white smoke. With just this little bit of Cultivation Level, you dare to use a concealed weapon in front of Yours Truly? You — ah, what is this, my eyes are so hot, you boy! What is this thing!? "

Seeing that Hei Lian had fallen for the trap, Loong Xiaoyun smiled and said, "To think you still think you're a top tier killer, yet you don't even know what dust is."

"Ashes!" "You little bastard, I will definitely kill you!" Hei Lian was shocked. Ash powder was a very common substance. When it came into contact with water, it would heat up. Once it fell into one's eyes, it would burn one's eyes. One could not even use water to wash; the more one washed, the more powerful it became. It may seem ordinary, but Hei Lian, who was a killer, had no idea how to use it. He was in a miserable state.

"You'd better take care of your eyes first!" Loong Xiaoyun held onto the wound on his chest, staggered to Loong Ziyuan's side and shouted, "Sister, let's leave this place before he sees us. As long as we return to the camp, he won't be able to do anything to us!"

Loong Ziyuan came back to her senses. Seeing Loong Xiaoyun's chest dyed red with blood, she hurriedly took out her handkerchief and placed it on Loong Xiaoyun's chest. She said with a pained heart, "Younger Brother Yun, you're injured again. Quick, let this sister help you stop the bleeding!"

"It's too late, let's leave this place first!" Loong Xiaoyun knew that the lime powder wouldn't be able to trap Hei Lian for long. Once he recovered, neither of them would be able to escape.

"Bastard, Loong Xiaoyun, don't you dare run away!" Although Hei Lian could not see for the time being, his skill was still there. Based on his own hearing, he could roughly determine Loong Xiaoyun's position. Every time he brandished the sickle, it would emit a black wave of air. Wherever the black wave of air went, it would pierce through rocks and break trees. Its power was even stronger than the wave of air that had injured Loong Xiaoyun.

Loong Xiaoyun and Loong Ziyuan continuously dodged left and right, and at this time, the effect of the Dragon Swimming Steps manifested itself. Facing death's scythe again and again, Loong Xiaoyun and Loong Ziyuan were more than capable of handling it.

Once Loong Xiaoyun and Loong Ziyuan escaped into the forest, it would be difficult for Hei Lian to catch them again. One side was trying their best to escape, the other side was doing everything in their power to pursue them. It all depended on this forest to see who could succeed!

Loong Xiaoyun turned around and looked at Hei Lian who was crazily waving his scythe and then looked at the nearby woods. He shouted excitedly, "Sister, faster! As long as we hide into the woods, he won't be able to do anything to us!"

"Hmm, Younger Brother Yun, it's all thanks to you this time, or else …" Before Loong Ziyuan could finish her sentence, she was suddenly struck dumb. It was clearly the edge of the forest, but now, it was replaced by a dark curtain. "Younger Brother Yun, what's going on here? Where's the forest?"

Loong Xiaoyun was also very surprised, he was just about to escape into the forest, but the forest disappeared and was replaced by a layer of dark curtain. Looking around, there was no river, everything turned into a dark curtain, firmly locking them in place.

"Brat, do you still want to run? Taste this ghost's fear! " Although Hei Lian's eyes had yet to recover, it did not stop him from using his ultimate move. This fear of ghosts even caused many third stage Cultivation Level s to feel a chill down their spine upon hearing this. It was exactly because of Hei Lian's move that both men avoided him.

"Younger Brother Yun, what exactly is this?" Loong Ziyuan looked around in horror, not knowing what would happen next.

"Sis, don't be afraid. Who knows, this might be a deceptive trick!"

The moment Loong Xiaoyun finished his words, the dark curtain changed as squirming shadows appeared in front of their eyes.
