On the lush green forest path, two figures were running fast. When they got closer, they found that there were three figures, but the smaller one was "hanging" on the young man in white who was in the lead.

Next to the young man in white, there is a young girl in a white dress with her face covered by a veil. Her pure white dress is dotted with purple and gold decorations, and she is as tranquil and indifferent as a solitary orchid in a valley.

"Xiao Yuan, why haven't you arrived yet?"

On the young man's back, the purple-haired little girl frowned and asked with a little impatience.

"almost."

Xiao Yuan's eyes were as fast as lightning. He scanned the surroundings and spoke in a deep voice.

The Black Horn Region is too chaotic. Although he and Xiao Yixian are both at the Dou Huang level, they are not invincible here. Some veteran strongmen hiding behind the scenes are at the Dou Zong level. If it were normal times, Xiao Yuan would not be afraid of them, but now, Xiao Yuan is being tracked by the people of the Soul Palace and must avoid all troubles.

Otherwise, if the elders of the Soul Palace are attracted, the consequences will be disastrous.

"Is someone following us? I don't feel comfortable."

Zi Yan didn't make a fuss after hearing this, and asked in a deep voice.

"Well, you may advance at any time, so we can't get involved in a fight. Let's go back to the inner courtyard first."

Xiao Yuan nodded and said softly.

"I wouldn't have eaten so much if I had known."

Hearing this, Zi Yan frowned and said with some annoyance.

She is indeed about to advance now, and she cannot use her fighting spirit easily. Otherwise, once she starts advancing, if there is no place with enough energy, it will take a long time to advance. But if the advancement fails due to some accidents, that would be a big trouble.

Xiao Yuan shrugged and was about to speak when he suddenly stopped. He narrowed his dark eyes and looked at the mountains and forests in the distance.

"What's wrong?" Seeing Xiao Yuan stop, Zi Yan blinked her big eyes and asked in confusion.

"There is someone coming this way. It looks like he is running for his life." Xiao Yixian said lightly. While speaking, she glanced at Xiao Yuan, as if waiting for his decision.

"Don't worry about it, let's go our way." Xiao Yuan smiled faintly. There were murders and vendettas going on every day in the Black Horn Region, and he was not interested in saving everyone one by one.

While Xiao Yuan and the other two were talking, two figures with staggering steps appeared in a panic at the end of the forest path. Not far behind them, many black shadows flashed by, and the chilling murderous intent was transmitted even from a distance.

As the figures fled faster and faster, Xiao Yuan finally saw the two figures clearly. Both figures were women, one was a mature and beautiful lady, and the other was a girl in a white dress with a childish face but a well-developed figure.

The mature woman's steps were staggering, and there were some bloodstains on her blue dress, obviously she was injured. The girl in the white dress looked better, but at this moment her delicate and charming little face was filled with determination to fight to the death.

Perhaps because of her injury, the mature woman twisted her foot while running away and almost fell down. The girl hurriedly supported her and helped her to stabilize her body. She used her arms to pull the mature woman and continued to run together.

While the two were delaying, the many dark shadows behind them suddenly came closer, and their cold murderous intent made both of them break out in sweat.

The woman gritted her teeth and glanced at the approaching pursuers. A sense of despair rose in her heart. Just as she was feeling despair, she happened to see three figures not far ahead. She immediately shouted as if she had grasped the last straw: "Friends in front, please help us. Canaan Academy will reward you handsomely!"

While he was shouting, the pursuers suddenly accelerated, and finally their figures flashed by, forming an encirclement that completely surrounded the area. Coincidentally, Xiao Yuan and the other two were also in this encirclement.

"Jie Jie, you still want to escape?" A man in black looked down at the two embarrassed people below and said with a strange smile.

Seeing the blocked escape route, the mature woman felt even more desperate and could only look to Xiao Yuan and the other two for help.

???

Then she froze.

The girl in the white dress beside her had a look of surprise in her eyes.

"Kid, the road is wide, walk to your own side and please don't meddle in other people's business!" The black-clothed men around them also noticed Xiao Yuan and the other two. The man who spoke earlier had a cold look in his eyes and said in a deep voice.

"Are you teaching me what to do?"

Xiao Yuan looked like he was thinking, and after a moment, a defiant look appeared on his face.

"Boy, you're looking for death!" Upon hearing this, the leader of the men in black suddenly turned gloomy and growled in a cold voice, "Kill them all! Don't let the news leak out."

Hearing the leader's order, the dozen or so men in black immediately responded in a deep voice, then tightly grasped the sharp swords in their hands, moved their bodies, and rushed straight towards Xiao Yuan and others. The murderous aura in their eyes made the air in the forest suddenly solidify.

Feeling the sudden surge of murderous intent, the mature woman's expression changed slightly, but she stood there without moving.

She believed in Xiao Yuan's strength.

Seeing this, several men in black thought that the two women were frightened silly, and suddenly a hideous and cruel smile appeared on their faces. Two long swords with cold light quickly appeared behind the two women, and then shot out like poisonous snakes.

However, a slight thunder suddenly sounded in the woods, and then the two of them felt their bodies suddenly flying up. This process lasted only a short moment. When they came to their senses, they were shocked to find that they were already between Xiao Yuan and the other two, and there was a hand on their waists.

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Yuan withdrew his hand and snapped his fingers.

"Snapped!"

The next moment, black ice mist appeared out of nowhere, and in an instant, all the men in black were frozen in the ice coffins.

"broken!"

Along with Xiao Yuan's sigh, the ice coffin exploded. The group of men in black who had been so arrogant before could not even put together a complete body.

"Teacher Ruolin, I didn't expect that we would meet in this way after returning this time."

After easily dealing with these small fry, Xiao Yuan turned around, looked at the two acquaintances, and said with a smile.

"Luckily I met you."

Teacher Ruolin also showed a gentle smile when she heard this, but then her face turned pale, and after a muffled groan, a glaring red color overflowed from the corner of her mouth.

"Teacher Ruolin, please take a rest first. This is a fourth-grade healing pill that can heal your injuries."

After Xiao Yuan finished speaking, he stuffed a pill into Teacher Ruolin's hand and nodded.

"Okay, then I'll calm down first. If you want to ask anything, just ask Qingning directly." Teacher Ruolin nodded and said seriously.

"Ah."

Xiao Yuan responded when he heard this, and his expression softened a lot when he looked at the girl in the white dress who was becoming more and more charming.

"Yes, the last time we met, you had already broken through to the level of a two-star fighter. Now you are already at the peak of the fighter level, and you are only one step away from becoming a great fighter. It seems like you have some luck."

Xiao Yuan rubbed the girl's head and said with a smile.

"Son!"

Qing Ning threw herself into Xiao Yuan's arms, her eyes full of joy.

She originally thought that she was going to die here and would never have the chance to see the young master again.

Unexpectedly, it was the young master who saved her again.

The little medical fairy on the side looked at Xiao Yuan with a strange expression.

Although this girl is older than me in some ways, she is still young after all!
"Okay, tell me quickly, what is the current situation of Canaan College?"

Xiao Yuan patted Qing Ning's back gently and asked softly.

Hearing this, Qing Ning did not come out of Xiao Yuan's arms. After greedily taking a sip of the familiar smell, she slowly said:
"Sir, ever since the Black Horn Region invaded the academy, the academy has sent many students out for training every six months. Most of the students who are training are secretly followed by people from the inner courtyard or elders.

This time, Elder Lin from the inner courtyard led the team. Everything was going smoothly at first, but in the end, the news seemed to have leaked out. When our training team arrived in the mountains here to hunt monsters, they encountered a sneak attack from the Magic Flame Valley. In an emergency, Elder Lin fought hard and finally took many training students to hide in a small valley, but they were completely trapped on the spot by the Magic Flame Valley. Instructor Ruolin and I fought desperately to get out. We originally wanted to find reinforcements, but we were discovered by the secret sentries of the Magic Flame Valley, so they chased us all the way. "

Hearing this, Xiao Yuan nodded thoughtfully. It was indeed the Demon Flame Valley, but what was going on? Why did the Demon Flame Valley confront the academy? Elder Lin, it should be Lin Xiuya. The enemy that even he couldn't deal with must be either a Dou Wang peak or a Dou Huang strongman.

"Master, we have more than 30 students trapped there. If they fall into the hands of the Demon Flame Valley, they will be in great danger. Besides, Sister Xiao Yu is also in the team!"

Then, Qing Ning quickly spoke.

Hearing Qing Ning's words, Xiao Yuan's expression suddenly changed.

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Yuan pressed his middle finger between his eyebrows, and his soul power surged out like a tide. He instantly completed the detection of the surroundings and obtained the approximate location of Xiao Yu and others.

The distance is not far, but Lin Xiuya’s condition is not good and he can’t delay any longer!
"Deserves to be killed!"

Xiao Yuan's medicine was very effective. After a little breathing exercise, Teacher Ruolin's injuries were healed. Then she saw Xiao Yuan's serious expression.

"Zi Yan, you and Xiao Yixian take them with you. I'll go first!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Yuan's body disappeared on the spot.

"Such speed"

Teacher Ruolin looked at the place where Xiao Yuan disappeared in a daze, and couldn't help but shook her head with emotion.

The talented young man who amazed her back then has now become a truly powerful man!

There are mountains one after another and lush trees. Under the green shade of the mountain, there is a steep mountain. There is a huge crack at the bottom of the mountain. From a distance, it looks like a valley. On both sides of the valley are steep and smooth stone walls that are difficult to climb. The only way out is the exit which is less than two meters wide.

At this moment, a large group of people were standing in the valley. Although most of their faces were a little pale, there was not much panic in their brows. They held their weapons tightly and glanced coldly at the peak at the entrance of the valley.

This group of people are relatively young, all around seventeen or eighteen or nineteen, which is the time when they are at the peak of their vigor. There are also a mix of men and women, and a group of girls with quite striking looks, especially the vitality unique to girls, which is the most eye-catching. However, at the moment, these beautiful girls are all pale, but such a delicate appearance makes them even more lovable.

At the head of the crowd, several men and women stood with solemn faces, their eyes fixed on the valley mouth in the distance, where there was a vague silhouette of a person flashing with cold light.

“Elder Lin, what should we do now? The people from the Demon Flame Valley have completely blocked the entrance to the valley, and the surrounding mountain walls are extremely slippery. Unless you are a Dou Wang strongman, no one can escape.”

A middle-aged man who was about thirty years old looked at the desperate situation, sighed softly, and smiled bitterly at the handsome man in front of him who was holding a three-foot green sword.

Hearing this, Lin Xiuya slowly turned around, revealing a handsome face with a solemn expression.

"Let's wait. I hope Ruolin and Qingning can escape successfully. As long as they can spread the news, if there are strong people from the academy nearby, they should be able to come to the rescue."

His eyes swept across the faces of everyone in the valley, and Lin Xiuya sighed helplessly.

"These damned Demon Flame Valley, if we can get out this time, we will definitely let Xiao Yan and Xiao Yuan settle accounts with them! I have already sent a message to Xiao Yuan a few days ago. With his speed, I am afraid that he will reach the Black Horn Region in the next two days."

At the side, a tall woman in a red dress suddenly spoke in a cold voice.

Hearing Xiao Yu's words, Lin Xiuya nodded slightly, but his expression soon changed, and his voice became a little deeper: "I'm afraid these guys won't give us that kind of opportunity!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yu and the others' faces changed, and they immediately dispersed, surrounding the young male and female students.

"Haha, I never thought that it would be the famous Qingyan Jianlin Xiuya from Canaan College. I have heard of you for a long time."

Shadows of people flashed on the peak at the mouth of the valley, and then a man in gray robes flashed out with fighting spirit wings, looking down at the people in the valley and laughing.

Behind the gray-robed man, there were more than a dozen men in black standing, their stern gazes directed at the people in the valley.

"The people from the Demon Flame Valley are always so sneaky!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Xiuya stared at the gray-robed figure with cold eyes and said indifferently.

"Haha, Elder Lin's Qingyan Sword is extremely famous in the Black Horn Region. Even Dou Wang masters have died under your sword. I almost suffered a great loss just now. Today, the two of us are going to learn from you!"

Another loud laugh was heard, and soon a figure flashed out. Looking at the flapping wings of fighting spirit behind him, it was obvious that he was another powerful Dou Wang.

Looking at the two Dou Wang powerful men above the valley with a gloomy gaze, Lin Xiuya's heart sank slightly. His current strength is only a five-star Dou Wang. Judging from the aura of these two people, they are at least eight-star Dou Wang. If he fights alone, he still has some confidence that he can fight one against two, but he will obviously be at a disadvantage. However, if it really comes to the final fight, even if he is defeated in the end, he can definitely inflict heavy losses on the two opponents.

What a pity! If that guy Liu Qing was with me, the situation would be much better.

Right now, let’s just pray that Xiao Yan can arrive in time!

Thinking of this, Lin Xiuya was speechless. He didn't know what Xiao Yan had done. After coming out of retreat, he had reached the peak level of a four-star Dou Huang. He was not even a match for him. Thinking about the two brothers Xiao Yuan who had killed Dou Zong, they were really outrageous! (End of this chapter)
