Chapter 1408: The Angry Qingfeng

Qingfeng Li smiled gently and said, "I am Qingfeng Li. Now tell me, where is Linger Yao?"

After Qingfeng's comment, the long-haired self-cultivator's face turned pale, since he knew how powerful Qingfeng was.

Qingfeng Li was named the Number One self-cultivator of the younger generation of self-cultivators. Even those old sect masters of the Emperor level sects might not be able to defeat him.

"Qingfeng Li, we met Linger Yao in the forest about 50 miles from here. She was hunted down by the sect master of the Ghost-Emperor Sect," the long-haired self-cultivator told Qingfeng everything he knew immediately.

Qingfeng thanked the self-cultivator and hustled towards the forest with Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake.

He was running extremely fast since he was very worried about Linger Yao getting caught.

While Qingfeng was on his way, he met more self-cultivators who were all talking about Linger Yao as well.

As Linger Yao was the sect master of the Demonic-Imperial Sect, she was very famous within the world of self-cultivators. Not to mention that she was an extremely beautiful woman, many admirers sympathized with her when they saw her hunted down by the sect master of the Ghost-Emperor Sect.

Ten minutes later, Qingfeng, Black Puppy, and Sky-Devouring Snake arrived the forest.

Qingfeng looked at the forest, all he could see were giant ancient trees covered in vines and flowers, and some unknown demonic beasts roaring.

Suddenly, his eyes stopped. He noticed a purple cloth with some blood on it.

Qingfeng picked up the cloth and looked at it carefully, remembering that this cloth came from the clothes Linger Yao was wearing. He could clearly remember that the material of Linger Yao's clothes was exactly the same as this cloth.

And with the blood on the cloth, it was clear that Linger Yao was injured.

Although Linger Yao was very powerful, there was still some distance comparing her to the Ghost-Emperor Sect's sect master's power.

Black Puppy recognized the purple cloth and said, "Qingfeng Li, isn't this the cloth from Linger Yao's clothes?"

Sky-Devouring Snake replied, "That's right. I have seen her wearing a purple dress, and this is definitely a piece of the dress. The blood should be hers as well."

Qingfeng nodded and said, "You two follow me into the forest in front of us right now. Puppy, use your nose and see if you can smell her and find out where she is."

When Black Puppy realized this was an emergency, it immediately started smelling with its nose.

Black Puppy had seen Linger Yao before, therefore it could recognize her scent. It didn't take long for the puppy to figure out that she gone to the north.

"Let's go," Qingfeng Li followed the Puppy's direction and started sprinting to the north.

At the moment, Linger Yao was hunted down by the Ghost-Emperor Sect's sect-master.

She was in bad shape as her clothes had been ripped by blades and were covered in blood. Even some of her hair had been cut off.

Right behind Linger Yao was Xiao Gui. He was hunting Linger Yao down with a murderous face.

"Linger Yao, stop running. You know you can't outrun me!" Xiao Gui looked at Linger Yao and smiled cold-bloodedly.

Three elders were following Xiao Gui, and they were all spread out, surrounding Linger Yao.

Linger Yao was channeling the vital essence crazily inside her body and ran as fast as she could in order to escape from Xiao Gui.

Suddenly, Linger Yao stopped because she saw a guy ahead of her - the sect master of the Sword-Emperor Sect, Jianhuang Zhao.

"Move Jianhuang Zhao! Don't block my way!" Linger Yao said coldly to Zhao.

A hint of anger appeared in her voice as she was planning to escape through where Jianhuang Zhao was standing. However, this guy suddenly appeared and blocked her way.

At the moment, Linger Yao couldn't stop because of the deadly threat right behind her - Xiao Gui.

Although there were many disciples from the Demonic-Imperial Sect, they were all killed by Xiao Gui. Not even Linger Yao could handle Xiao Gui, not to mention the disciples.

Jianhuang Zhao gave a cold smile and said, "Linger Yao, don't even think about going through me."

Jianhuang was very angry at Linger Yao since she had provided aids to Qingfeng Li back at the Kunlun Mountains.

If it wasn't Linger Yao, Jianhuang Zhao could've gotten more spiritual Treasures and cultivation techniques. However, these things were all in Qingfeng Li's hands because of her. That was why Zhao hated her so much.

Linger Yao waved her palms and formed a giant vital essence palm, slapping towards the front.

Jianhuang Zhao smiled coldly and unsheathed his long sword. He slashed towards Linger Yao, shattering her vital essence palm.

Linger Yao was already injured and was no-match for Jianhuang Zhao. She was now trapped by Xiao Gui and the three elders because of Jianhuang's attack.

She was in great danger at the moment as Jianhuang was in front of her, and Xiao Gui was right behind her. There was no way for her to escape.

Linger Yao knew she couldn't escape. She stopped and turned around to coldly stare at Xiao Gui.

"Linger Yao, today you are going to face your death. I am not only going to kill you, I am also going to trap your soul into my sword," Xiao Gui said to Linger Yao with a murderous face.

"Kill me if you can!" A cold light flashed in Linger Yao's eyes, as she was not about to give up.

Linger Yao shot out her palm against Xiao Gui. However, she was weaker, and no match for his power. A few moments later, Linger Yao was severely injured as her face turned pale and she started spitting blood.

Seeing Linger Yao injured, Jianhuang Zhao suddenly attacked her from the back. In a blink of an eye, a giant hole appeared on Linger Yao's abdomen as Jianhuang Zhao stabbed through her body.

It was a despicable move from Jianhuang Zhao. Linger Yao's injuries were now life-threatening.

Paatooom!

Linger Yao's body smashed into the ground as she continued to spit blood out of her mouth. Her face turned pale as the hole in her body bled ceaselessly.

Xiao Gui looked at Jianhuang Zhao and said, "I am going to chop this woman's head off myself. Do you have a problem with that?"
