Upon hearing this, Li Wenbo immediately replied, “I don’t know either. I’m only aware that there are three elders in our Lingjian Mountain.”
“Ordinary disciples only know that Mountain Master Si Yin is the true leader of Lingjian Mountain, and they don’t even know her real name, let alone the existence of the other two elders.”
Li Wenbo continued, “Brother Ye, you mustn’t speak of this to anyone. Otherwise, our Lingjian Mountain is truly doomed.”
At this point, Li Wenbo inwardly scolded Su Jin Yue a few times.
What a silly girl!
Ye Wushuang murmured, “He should be the strongest among the twelve. How could he be in a state of slumber…”
Li Wenbo was taken aback.
Who?
Yin Shenghao?
Twelve of what?
This doesn’t make sense!
How come it suddenly feels like Ye Wushuang knows more about Lingjian Mountain than he does?
“No, no,” Li Wenbo grabbed Ye Wushuang and asked, “You have to explain this to me. I don’t know about these things, and neither does Jin Yue. How do you know?”
“You will find out in the future,” Ye Wushuang said, “Follow me for now.”
Li Wenbo chuckled, “Brother Ye, you really know how to appreciate things. Now that you know I’m Li Wenbo, do you feel a sense of admiration?”
Ye Wushuang glanced at Li Wenbo and ignored him.
Tricking me?
Fine!
Just wait until you find out that I am Ling Shengtian, the master of the three elders of your Lingjian Mountain. I’ll see what expression you’ll have then!
The two continued deeper into the forest…
“Strange,” Li Wenbo frowned after a while, “Yesterday, there were continuous roars of spiritual beasts here, and it seemed like people were fighting. But now, not only can we not see a single person, but we can’t even spot a spiritual beast.”
Ye Wushuang was constantly on guard, looking around.
As soon as Li Wenbo finished speaking, Ye Wushuang suddenly drew his sword.
“What are you doing…”
*Boom!!!*
Before Li Wenbo could finish his sentence, a fierce and deadly aura rolled in, striking directly at their location.
The earth trembled, and rocks flew everywhere.
Having a premonition, Ye Wushuang leaped into the air and landed on a horizontal tree trunk in advance.
Behind him, a spiritual beast over ten zhang tall was staring at Ye Wushuang with a ferocious and menacing look.
“*Spit* *Spit* *Spit*…”
Amidst the explosion, a deep pit was blasted into the ground. Li Wenbo’s bald head was covered in dust as he cursed, “Who the hell is this?”
But as soon as he turned around, he was utterly shocked.
“*Whoa!*”
“A three-headed python!”
Li Wenbo quickly flew over to Ye Wushuang’s side, complaining, “Brother Ye, that’s not fair. You just ran away by yourself!”
“Stop talking nonsense!”
Ye Wushuang directly said, “Let’s go.”
A three-headed python is a true high-grade third-stage spiritual beast, with the strength of the peak Tiangang realm.
Killing a three-headed python could earn ten thousand spiritual points, but… one must have the means to survive first!
He was currently at the eighth level of the Yuanfu realm, and Li Wenbo was at the first level of the Tiangang realm. Together, they were no match for it.
The two figures immediately fled.
The three-headed python, towering over ten zhang tall, had a body like a tiger or wolf, strong and ferocious. However, its three heads were like python snakes, spewing hot and deadly aura.
Seeing the two humans fleeing in front of it, the three-headed python only revealed a mocking look in its eyes.
It leaped into the air, covering a distance of dozens of zhang in one bound, chasing Ye Wushuang and Li Wenbo from behind.
Like a cat playing with mice, it was more about toying with the two of them.
Li Wenbo was running for his life, but the three-headed python was hanging behind, neither getting too close nor being shaken off by the two.
“This bastard isn’t fast. We can escape!” Li Wenbo panted.
“It’s toying with us,” Ye Wushuang glanced back, seeing the three heads of the python, its eyes filled with mocking looks.
Li Wenbo was even more furious, “What should we do?”
The two leaped through the forest, covering a hundred zhang in a few bounds, but the three-headed python continued to chase relentlessly, still hanging behind them.
Ye Wushuang kept changing directions.
Suddenly, after Ye Wushuang changed direction once more with Li Wenbo, the three-headed python behind them suddenly accelerated, and the distance between the two and the beast was immediately shortened.
“Something’s wrong,” Li Wenbo exclaimed in shock.
How could this beast just speed up like that?
But Ye Wushuang’s eyes brightened.
“Hurry up,” he urged, and his speed suddenly increased, leaving Li Wenbo behind for a moment.
“Brother Ye, Brother Ye, don’t run so fast, wait for me…” Li Wenbo’s face turned pale.
Suddenly, less than a hundred zhang ahead, a towering mountain rose from the ground.
At the base of the mountain, there were numerous cave entrances, leading who knows where.
Ye Wushuang gritted his teeth, took a step forward, and dashed into one of the caves.
Li Wenbo, who was behind, saw that he was about to be caught by the three-headed python.
“Kill!”
Standing at the cave entrance, Ye Wushuang’s Tianya Sword unleashed a terrifying sword beam, and his fully developed sword intent burst forth.
A single sword strike made the sun and moon pale, and the mountains and rivers lose their color, directly attacking the three-headed python.
*Boom…*
The heavens and earth roared, and the ground rumbled.
The speed of the three-headed python was at least hindered a bit.
Li Wenbo narrowly escaped into the cave, his face pale as he collapsed to the ground, panting, “Brother Ye, how come you’re running faster than me…”
And about ten zhang away from the two, the three-headed python stood still, actually stopping its pursuit.
“Hey, this guy isn’t chasing us anymore?” Li Wenbo was pleasantly surprised.
Ye Wushuang slowly said, “When I turned this way just now, this beast clearly got anxious and sped up, which means it doesn’t want us to come here.”
“However, we can only say we’ve temporarily avoided disaster.”
“If even the three-headed python dares not approach this place, whatever is inside this cave… it’s definitely not something good!”
Li Wenbo hurriedly said, “It can’t be… the lair of a fourth-stage spiritual beast, can it?”
“Shut up,” Ye Wushuang immediately said, “If it really is the lair of a fourth-stage spiritual beast, then we’re really as good as dead.”
“Let’s wait and see for now!”
“Okay.”
The two sat cross-legged at the cave entrance to recover.
But about ten zhang away, the three-headed python saw that the two were not entering the cave but stopped at the entrance, its eyes filled with murderous intent as it slowly approached them step by step…
“*Damn it!*” Li Wenbo cursed, “This beast is forcing us into the cave!”
Obviously, the three-headed python dared not enter the cave, but seeing that Ye Wushuang and Li Wenbo had stopped at the cave entrance and were not going in, it did not want to let them go and intended to force them into the cave.
“Let’s go!” Ye Wushuang tightly gripped his Tianya Sword.
Even as the reincarnation of the Heavenly Emperor, he was currently only at the eighth level of the Yuanfu realm. Dealing with such a peak Tiangang realm spiritual beast was simply impossible!
Step by step, the two walked into the cave.
After entering a few meters, the three-headed python had not left but was still staring intently at the cave entrance.
“*Damn it,* this beast, once I, Li Wenbo, become a peak Tiangang realm expert, I’ll definitely kill it!”
“By the time you reach the peak of the Tiangang realm, it’ll probably be the next Hundred Nations Martial Contest.”
“*Uh…*”
The two walked through the passage, the dim environment and the oppressive atmosphere making them uneasy.
“Brother Ye, I’m scared…”
“*Get lost.*”
*Whoosh… whoosh… whoosh…*
As they went deeper, ahead of them, there was a faint, rhythmic sound of *whooshing*.
“What’s that noise?” Li Wenbo grabbed Ye Wushuang’s arm, saying, “Brother Ye, I’m really scared…”
*Whoosh… whoosh…*
As soon as Li Wenbo’s voice trailed off, the rhythmic *whooshing* sound became even louder.
And with the faint light of the Tianya Sword, Ye Wushuang and Li Wenbo looked ahead, their faces turning pale with horror.
