Volume 1 Chapter 902 Escape
"Let"s set up an ambush. After the exchange is over, capture them all and bring the dragon turtle back." One of the elders said, and the suggestion attracted the approval of the majority of the people.
"This action concerns the dignity of the Xiao Clan. We must let them die." When the elders heard this, they all agreed.
Although Kong Yun had sent someone to spread the news to the Xiao Clan, he did not reveal his ident.i.ty, nor did he say the address of the exchange.
Soon after, Kong Yun received news that the Xiao Clan had agreed to the exchange. However, the location of the exchange had to be as the Xiao Clan had said. Kong Yun rejected this suggestion.
Of course, the person in charge of delivering the message was the person sought by the Sea Dragon Merchant Guild, but it had nothing to do with the Sea Dragon Merchant Guild.
In the end, under Kong Yun"s insistence, the Xiao Clan finally compromised.
Kong Yun finished all of this and returned to the inn. The Emperor Demon G.o.d and Xiang"er looked at Kong Yun in the room. "What are you doing recently? Why are you sneaking around?" Emperor Demon G.o.d was the first to ask.
Kong Yun looked at Xiang"er and then at the Emperor Demon G.o.d.
"I plan to exchange Xiao Xiong for the Dragon Turtle." These words shocked Xiang"er and the others.
"With your strength, you are simply unable to fight against the Xiao Clan. You are going to die." The Emperor Demon G.o.d"s face was filled with worry.
"I have my own way. Don"t worry. Take this opportunity to leave Greencloud City and go to Beihai City. Wait for me there. I will go find you."
"No." Kong Yun"s words were opposed by everyone.
"Stop talking. It"s decided like this." Just as the Emperor Demon G.o.d was about to refute, Kong Yun glared at him and returned to his room.
The next day, Emperor Demon G.o.d left Greencloud City with Xiang"er and Qiao"er under Kong Yun"s surveillance. Kong Yun heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. This way, he wouldn"t have any worries in the future. After all, he didn"t have much confidence in this operation.
After that, Kong Yun returned to the inn and began to make preparations. After careful consideration, Kong Yun chose the location on the barren mountain outside the city.
On the barren mountain, Kong Yun stood at the top of the mountain. He looked at his surroundings and nodded. This place was very beneficial to his escape.
Kong Yun sat cross-legged as he waved his hand. Light dots constantly flashed in the surroundings. In an instant, a grand formation appeared in front of him. This grand formation was able to block the full power attack of the Inferior G.o.d, but this grand formation did not give Kong Yun much confidence.
After that, Kong Yun returned to the city, went to the Sea Dragon Merchant Guild, and then returned to the inn.
Kong Yun saw a figure sitting in the room. Kong Yun"s spirits tightened as he pushed open the door and entered. He saw the Emperor Demon G.o.d.
"Why are you back? Didn"t I let you go?"
"How can you not call me for such a thing?" Then the Emperor Demon G.o.d smiled foolishly.
"What about Xiang"er and the others?"
"I"ve been arranged to return to Beihai City." Kong Yun nodded, expressing his understanding.
After that, Kong Yun did not chase the Emperor Demon G.o.d away. Instead, he returned to his room and earnestly adjusted his condition to the best of his abilities.
Emperor Demon G.o.d could tell that Kong Yun"s expression wasn"t too good. This meant that things weren"t going so smoothly. He then started cultivating in his room.
On the second day, Kong Yun quietly got up and walked behind the Emperor Demon G.o.d. He headed towards the back of the Emperor Demon G.o.d"s head and knocked him unconscious.
"Brother, I"m sorry. It"s very dangerous this time. I can"t let you take risks. You can sleep peacefully here now. Wait until you wake up and leave." After that, Kong Yun returned to the barren mountain and quietly waited for the arrival of the Xiao Clan.
Soon, it was the appointed time between the two parties. Xiao Qiang and the three elders appeared at the foot of the mountain. Looking at the formation on the mountain, their expressions changed slightly, but they weren"t too worried.
"Brat, hand him over." The nearby elder spoke first, but Kong Yun did not respond.
"Why aren"t you talking? Are you scared?" The elders burst into laughter.
"Patriarch Xiao, can your dogs bark as they please?" These words caused the laughter to stop abruptly.
"You." The three elders were furious. Just as they wanted to attack, Xiao forced them to stop.
"We"ve brought what you want. Let"s begin the exchange." Xiao Qiang waved his hand and the Dragon Turtle appeared. However, it was tied by iron ropes and its body was injured. It was in a very sorry state.
"Untie his shackles." Hearing Kong Yun"s tone, Xiao Qiang was slightly moved, but he still untied the shackles of the dragon turtle. For his son, Xiao Qiang endured all of this.
At this moment, Kong Yun"s figure appeared. He was holding Xiao Xiong in his hand. Xiao Xiong"s condition was not good either, and he was tortured by Kong Yun in all sorts of ways.
"Son, are you alright?" Xiao Qiang"s face was filled with worry, but more hatred.
"Father, help me kill him. Kill him." Xiao Xiong shouted angrily.
Xiao Qiang gritted his teeth and didn"t say anything. He was afraid that if he angered Kong Yun, Kong Yun would torture Xiao Xiong.
"How do we change?" Xiao Xiong wanted to settle this matter in the shortest time possible, so that he wouldn"t have to sleep too long.
"I say one, two, three. How about we throw out the hostages at the same time?"
"Agreed." After that, Kong Yun and Xiao Qiang made preparations and held the two hostages in their hands.
"One."
"Two."
"Three." The two of them didn"t let go and were looking at each other. "I knew you guys would do this." After that, Kong Yun dived into the formation and hid his body, afraid that Xiao Qiang would ambush him.
"Then what do you want to do?" Kong Yun did not reply and returned to the array.
Xiao Qiang instantly jumped up, wanting to break through the formation at this time and save Xiao Xiong.
"Don"t move, or Xiao Xiong will die." Kong Yun"s voice came out faintly, and Xiao Qiang immediately stopped the movement in his hand.
"Tell the elders below to bring them over. I"ll trade them with you."
Xiao Qiang stroked his beard and felt that it was okay. He nodded. Xiao Qiang was eager to save his son, regardless of whether there was a trap or not.
After that, the elder led the dragon turtle slowly towards Kong Yun. Kong Yun was like the elder, and the two of them began to slowly reconcile.
At this moment, Xiao Qiang tightened his body. He knew that Xiao Xiong was prepared to kill Kong Yun with great strength as soon as he reached his hand. After all, Kong Yun only had the peak of Undying Immortal.
The two of them walked less than a meter away from each other and stopped, "Let"s begin."
The two of them reached out their hands at the same time and grabbed the hostage"s clothes. The other hand suddenly released, completing the transaction.
Kong Yun grabbed the dragon turtle and quickly escaped into the grand formation. This speed made Xiao Qiang unable to react at all.
Soon after, Xiao Qiang"s aura suddenly increased. He instantly jumped up and smashed his hands into the formation. He only saw the formation shake for a while, and then it began to shatter. In an instant, it turned into ashes and disappeared in front of Xiao Qiang.
Kong Yun immediately put the dragon turtle back into the Blood Gold Temple. Now was not the time to recall the past. Right now, Xiao Qiang and the elders of the Xiao Clan were eyeing it covetously. The Emperor Demon G.o.d woke up at this moment and did not see Kong Yun"s figure. His expression changed drastically as he turned around and rushed towards Beihai City.
Sneak away! This was the first thought in Kong Yun"s mind. Not to mention that Xiao Qiang was a true Inferior G.o.d Realm expert, he was one of the three peak DemiG.o.d Realm elders of the Xiao Clan. Without the help of the Void Eye, it would be very difficult for him to escape.
Xiao Qiang quietly circulated his movement technique. In just an instant, Kong Yun"s figure flew a thousand meters away. He coldly looked in the direction Kong Yun escaped from. He coldly snorted and cut through the s.p.a.ce.
Seeing Xiao Qiang chase after him, the few elders didn"t dare to stay. They all joined the team that was chasing after Kong Yun.
Kong Yun turned around and saw that Xiao Qiang was indeed worthy of being a Divine Realm expert. Even though he had already increased his speed to the limit, in just a few breaths of time, Xiao Qiang was no more than a hundred meters away from him.
In an emergency, Kong Yun had no choice but to take out the Thunder Tribulation Sword. The beams of light carrying the Metal Laws, the Laws of Life and Death, and the power of thunder stabbed behind him, hoping to temporarily stop Xiao Qiang"s footsteps.
However, Kong Yun still underestimated the strength of a Divine Realm expert. Before his attacks could even touch Xiao Qiang"s body, the aura around him had dissipated.
"I want to see where else you can escape to." Xiao Qiang snorted coldly, as if he didn"t want to deal with Kong Yun anymore. He had to personally get back the face of the Xiao Clan!
He suddenly increased his speed and arrived in front of Kong Yun in just one breath. Kong Yun was greatly shocked. Before he could even swing the Lightning Tribulation Sword in his hand, Xiao Qiang punched him heavily in the chest.
Kong Yun"s chest caved in, and his body fell straight to the ground. Kong Yun could clearly feel a power that he had yet to touch corroding his flesh and blood.
Above, Xiao Qiang looked down at all of this with an evil smile on his face. However, in the next moment, Xiao Qiang"s smile froze. Kong Yun"s body was wrapped in a black mist and then slowly landed on the ground. At the same time, the corrosive force on his chest had also disappeared.
Kong Yun struggled to stand up, his powerful physical body recovering ability allowing Kong Yun"s injuries to quickly recover.
Kong Yun knew that Blackstone had saved him this time, but at this moment, Blackstone was silent again, quietly lying in his spatial ring.
"What is it? Hand it over." As Xiao Qiang"s figure descended, Kong Yun was unable to breathe because of the aura of the Divine Realm. He took more than a dozen steps back before he was able to withstand it.
At this moment, Xiao Qiang confirmed that Kong Yun possessed a precious treasure that could kill people and bones. If he could obtain it from Kong Yun, he would undoubtedly gain another trump card.
Kong Yun snorted coldly. He felt that Xiao Qiang"s thoughts were very ridiculous.
"You want to kill me, and you want my treasure?!" A trace of madness flashed through Kong Yun"s eyes. He stared at Xiao Qiang without fear.
"Hand over your things and I"ll let you go." Xiao Qiang said as he stared forward step by step.
Kong Yun rolled his eyes and nodded, "Keep your word."
Xiao Qiangxi was delighted. He naturally wouldn"t let Kong Yun off, but he didn"t expect Kong Yun to be so easy to deceive.
"Here you go!" Kong Yun waved his right hand and a seized sword intent s.p.a.ce flew out, striking Xiao Qiang"s neck.
Although Xiao Qiang was a Divine Realm expert, Kong Yun"s sword intent was extremely fast. Furthermore, he didn"t have it in Xiao Qiang
