Chapter 214: The Emperor of the Izumo Empire

On the other side, the three of Yanli were plotting a plan to escape from the Gama Empire in a hidden corner. As the leader of the three, Yanli's face was as gloomy as water, and his eyes shone with unwillingness and anger.

He knew in his heart that what he did at the Medicine Refining Conference had put his position in the Jia Ma Empire in jeopardy. If he didn't leave as soon as possible, he might be in even greater trouble.

Arriving at the entrance of a deserted alley, Yanli said in a deep voice to the two people behind him: "We must leave here as soon as possible. The Alchemists Guild of the Jiama Empire and Fa Ma will not let us go. I have written a letter before We have contacted the senior officials of the Izumo Empire and they will send a Dou Huang-level warrior to meet us outside the imperial capital.”

Among Yanli's two black-robed men, the alchemist from the Mulan Empire asked with a tremor in his voice: "Master Yanli, have our identities really been exposed?"

Another alchemist from the Luoyan Empire also added: "Yes, Master Yanli, we have used the 'Rejuvenation Pill', and our appearance has returned to the appearance of our youth. They should not be able to see through our true identity. Even if we Our previous attitude was a bit arrogant, but our age does meet the requirements for participating in this alchemist conference, so they should have no reason to take action against us, right?"

Hearing the panicked inquiries from his men, Yan Li couldn't help but recall the cold looks at the VIP table and Xiao Yan's ridicule towards him.

Although he could not determine the specific situation, Yanli already had an ominous premonition in his heart. He said in a deep voice: "According to my observation, we have probably been discovered. Even if our identity has not been exposed, the Jiama Empire is not ours after all. It’s better for us to leave as soon as possible.”

Immediately, Yanli snorted coldly, and a fierce light flashed in his eyes: "Don't worry, I have made careful arrangements. The powerful Douhuang warriors from the Izumo Empire will meet us at the border and lead us across the border. Arrive safely in the Izumo Empire, where we can get more solid protection.”

There was an unquestionable determination in Yanli's words, which calmed the uneasiness in the hearts of the two subordinates a little.

"Master, since you have made arrangements, let's act according to the plan." The alchemist of the Mulan Empire took a deep breath and tried to calm down his emotions.

The alchemist of the Luoyan Empire also nodded in agreement, "Yes, Master Yanli, we trust your judgment. As long as we can reach the Izumo Empire safely, we will not encounter any risks."

Yanli nodded, and then released his soul perception to explore the surroundings. After confirming that no one was following him, he felt a little relieved. He said in a deep voice: "It seems that those in the Gama Empire have not noticed our movements yet."

Then he turned to look at his two men, and Yanli whispered, "Okay, let's go."

As soon as he finished speaking, he took the lead and walked out of the alleyway, followed closely by his two men. The movements of the three of them were as low-key as possible to avoid attracting unnecessary attention.

Yanli and the others hid their figures and blended into the bustling crowd. Taking advantage of the noon time, the crowds were flowing quietly towards the outside of the Jia Ma Imperial Capital. The sun shines on them, but their hearts are filled with gloom and uneasiness.

Although there are many people at noon, it also means that the line of sight is wider, and their actions are easier to notice. Therefore, he warned his two men to be extra careful and not to do anything conspicuous.

They walked through the busy market, blending in with vendors and customers, trying to make their presence as low as possible. Yanli's eyes scanned around vigilantly, making sure no suspicious eyes followed him. His two men also showed sufficient vigilance and were always paying attention to what was going on around them.

However, after all, these three people are all veteran fighting spirits, and they are considered good players even in the Jiama Empire. It is not difficult to avoid attracting the attention of others. They kept walking, and before long, the towering city wall appeared in their sight.

As the city wall approached, Yanli couldn't help but feel nervous. The city gate is the last obstacle for them to escape from this place, and it is also the place where their whereabouts are most easily exposed. However, if the soldiers guarding the city gate notice anything amiss, they will face huge trouble.

Yanli took a deep breath, adjusted his mentality, and then whispered to his two men: "Keep calm, we are just like ordinary travelers, don't do anything unusual."

When the two people heard Yanli's instructions, they both nodded honestly.

They slowly approached the city gate with the flow of people, Yanli's eyes scanning around vigilantly to ensure that no suspicious eyes were locked on them. His two men also showed their due composure and did not show any signs of panic.

When they finally came to the city gate, Yanli pretended to be calm and handed the pass document to the guard, while using a bag of gold coins as an additional "gift."

After checking the documents, the guards smiled with satisfaction at the gold coins handed over by Yan Li, and then waved to let him go.

After leaving the city gate, Yanli and the others did not make any stop, and immediately quickened their pace and rushed towards the agreed meeting point. They knew that they could only be truly safe if they joined forces with the powerful Dou Huang warriors from the Izumo Empire.

The trees on both sides retreated quickly, and their footsteps seemed particularly hasty in the dust. The sun hangs high above your head, but Yanli can't feel the slightest warmth, only the sense of urgency in his heart is rising.

Soon, they came to an open area. Yanli stopped and looked around. After confirming that there were no followers, he signaled his two men to hide in the nearby grass and wait for the arrival of the powerful Douhuang warrior.

As time passed by, Yanli's brows gradually furrowed, and he began to wonder if there was any accident.

At this moment, a powerful and familiar aura suddenly appeared at the edge of their perception, and a hint of surprise flashed in Yanli's eyes. It was the arrival of the powerful fighting emperor from the Izumo Empire.

The figure of the powerful Dou Huang warrior appeared in front of them instantly like a phantom. He was wearing a black robe, with a stern face, and an unquestionable majesty in his eyes.

With the appearance of the figure, the tense expressions of Yanli and the other three people relaxed obviously. They greeted the man with a relaxed smile: "Brother Xieyun, you are finally here." Obviously, Yanli and this person Already familiar with it.

Xie Yun nodded slightly, glanced at the three of them, noticed that they did not look particularly excited, and asked: "Vice President Yanli, judging from your appearance, it seems that the task has not been successfully completed?"

When Yan Li heard this, a trace of unwillingness flashed in his eyes. He clenched his fists tightly, but soon released them. He sighed with helplessness in his tone: "Brother Xie Yun, a rare refiner has appeared in the Jia Ma Empire this time. He is a medicine prodigy who can refine fifth-grade elixirs at a young age, which I cannot match. I will apologize to Your Majesty after I return this time."

After hearing this, Xie Yun's eyes showed surprise. He touched his chin and said to himself: "I didn't expect that besides Xiao Ling, there would be another alchemy genius in the Jiama Empire. It's really surprising. "

However, he quickly shook his head, with a meaningful smile on his face: "However, these are not problems. When our Three Kingdoms Alliance is ready, both the Gama Empire and the Snake Tribe will eventually become the dust of history. "

The gloom in Yanli's heart gradually dissipated with Xie Yun's words. He secretly sneered in his heart: "So what if my alchemy skills surpass me? Once our army comes, all resistance will be in vain. At that time, I will let that Xiao Yan boy personally teach me the poison skills of the Izumo Empire. sharp."

He immediately responded to Xie Yun loudly: "Haha, what Brother Xie Yun said is absolutely true. The Jiama Empire is nothing. At present, our most important task is to leave this land quickly."

Xie Yun nodded. He knew that the situation was urgent and there was no room for error, so he said in a deep voice: "Without further delay, we will set off immediately before the people of the Gama Empire are aware of it."

Yanli and the others immediately agreed, and they quickly packed their bags and prepared to leave with Xie Yun.

However, just as they were about to leave, a voice suddenly broke through the silence around them.

"Want to leave? It's not that easy." This voice was calm but carried an unquestionable power, which shocked the hearts of the four people in Yanli.

They immediately stopped and turned to look at the source of the sound. I saw a handsome blue-haired young man walking calmly out of the woods. There was a hint of playfulness in his eyes, and he seemed to be quite amused by the situation in front of him.

Seeing the figure of this blue-haired young man, Xie Yun and Yan Li were shocked.

Naturally, they were no strangers to this young man. He was Xiao Ling, a peerless genius who was famous in the Jia Ma Empire and even the surrounding empires. He was known as the "Number One Alchemist in the Jia Ma Empire".

Xiao Ling's eyes were cold and deep, sweeping over the Yanli trio and the Douhuang warrior beside them, and a casual smile bloomed at the corner of his mouth.

Originally, he came here to track down the soul of a third-level and fourth-level alchemist, but he didn't expect that there would be an unexpected surprise on this trip. An unexpected high-level Dou Huang appeared.

The soul body of a high-level Dou Huang is not a piece of cabbage, and he was able to encounter it this time. It seems that coming here this time is indeed a wise decision.

Yanli's pupils shrank, he didn't expect Xiao Ling to appear here in person.

There was a tremor in his voice, but more of it was anger that could not be concealed: "Xiao Ling, what do you mean? Is it possible that the Jiama Empire wants to use its power to suppress others?"

Now that Xiao Ling was able to track them down here, wouldn't their previous absconding become a joke in the eyes of others.

Xie Yun on the side looked at Xiao Ling warily, but he was making rapid calculations in his mind. According to the information he had, Xiao Ling had just broken through to the Dou Huang realm when he left the Jia Ma Empire more than two years ago.

Although he could not sense Xiao Ling's aura now, Xie Yun speculated that no matter how talented Xiao Ling was, he would not be able to surpass the level of a five-star fighting emperor. As for me, as an Eight-Star Fighting Emperor, I naturally don't need to be overly afraid.

However, Xie Yun also knew that since Xiao Ling was able to approach them quietly, their previous conversation was probably overheard by the other party. This thought made Xie Yun's eyes suddenly become sharp.

This son Xiao Ling must not be kept!

Xiao Ling chuckled and walked calmly in front of them. His eyes swept over Yanli and the four of them one by one, as if he was examining something: "Yanli, you and I are both sensible people, why do you need to say such lies? I’m afraid the purpose of your trip is not just to simply leave the Jia Ma Empire. I listened to your previous conversation verbatim.”

At this time, Xie Yun took a step forward, stood side by side with Yan Li, and looked sharply in the direction of Xiao Ling, "Haha, he is indeed the famous Master Xiao Ling. His methods are really extraordinary. He followed us here and didn't let us have any trouble." perceived,"

"However, if you hadn't shown up before, it would have been fine. I didn't expect you to be so brave that you dared to take the initiative to stand up. Since you heard our previous conversation, tut tut, then you have no choice but to leave your life here."

Before Xie Yun finished speaking, he waved his hand, and a thick green mist gushed out from his palm, quickly condensing into a huge palm print, and slapped in the direction of Xiao Ling.

This palm print is several feet wide, with strange green runes flowing on the surface, as if it contains endless poison and death.

The air around the palm print seems to be corroded by its toxicity, making a "hissing" sound. It can be seen that circles of transparent ripples are swaying in the air, and the grass and trees touched by the palm print instantly withered and turned into ashes. An invisible sense of oppression spreads around, and even the earth trembles, as if an ancient giant beast has awakened underground and is about to break out of the ground.

Along with the handprint, there was also a light shout from Xieyun, "Xuan-level advanced fighting skill, Ten Thousand Poisons Dark Seal Collapse Palm"

As a Douhuang strongman who was honed in the dangerous land of the Izumo Empire, Xieyun is definitely not a person who follows martial arts etiquette. He believes in only the rules of fast, accurate, and ruthless fighting.

Xiao Ling dared to appear in front of them alone, which in itself implies that he may hold an unknown trump card.

In addition, this place is only a few dozen kilometers away from the Jiama Imperial Capital. If Xiao Ling cannot be quickly resolved, then the subsequent battle with Xiao Ling will cause a stir. Many Douhuang strongmen in the imperial capital will definitely notice the abnormality at the first time, and then come to support, and the situation will be extremely unfavorable to him.

Even if he can escape in the battle, if Xiao Ling reveals the news of the Three Kingdoms Alliance to the Jiama Empire, it will bring unpredictable consequences.

Scorpion Yun cannot bear such a risk anyway. Therefore, he knew that he had to do his best from the beginning to ensure that he could kill Xiao Ling as soon as possible and kill Xiao Ling before those people in Jiama Imperial Capital came to support him.

As Xieyun's palm came down, the whole space tightened, as if it was covered by an invisible big hand, making it difficult to breathe. Before the palm print arrived, the poisonous power contained in it had made the air around Xiao Ling sticky and stinking.
