Immortal Road.

Chapter 239 Turns out to be the little Yakuza
The roars of the battle in the Star Picking Valley could be heard from afar, and black threads gradually spread in the white fog, which gradually aroused the suspicion of passers-by over time.

It was the beginning of spring, and the students of Yunchuan Academy went out together to enjoy the scenery.

Along the way, young men and women chatted and laughed. Some composed poems towards the mountains and green fields, some pointed at the fields and lamented the sufferings of the world, some recounted the interesting things that happened in the academy, and some talked about the recent changes in the world of cultivation.

As they were chatting, a group of people passed by the Star Picking Valley.

"Recently, among the rankings of sponsors of our Yunchuan Academy, the newly established Xun Gu Sect in Tianfu Mountain has emerged as a rising star. This year, it donated a large number of spiritual stones to the academy and directly rose to the 19th place. It can be seen that it has a strong foundation, which is amazing!"

"I also heard that although Xun Gu Sect is a newly established sect, it not only has two formation masters within the sect, but is also one of the elders of Lujiang League. Its aquatic products industry is growing bigger and bigger, and it is said that it is also involved in the metallurgical industry, making a fortune day by day."

"Yes, Xun Gu Sect is indeed a rising star sect in Luxi in recent years, but its reputation is a little bad. According to rumors, the sect only recruits people with talent, not moral character. It even recruits debtors, flower-stealing thieves, and idiot brothers with low IQs. They are so short of people that they are going crazy!"

"Hey, Brother Zhang, be careful with your words. Don't forget that we have some in our team."

……

Among the group of students from Yunchuan Academy who were out for a picnic, there was indeed a disciple commissioned by the Xun Gu Sect. At this moment, he did not care about other people's comments on his own sect. Anyway, he had heard it so many times in the past two years that his ears were callused.

If there were some rumors, he might have argued about them at first, but now he is too lazy to care about them.

When you are famous, you are prone to gossip, let alone a powerful family? Black and red are also red, and this group of people is also promoting their own sect, so he just ignores them.

Besides going out for fun this time, I was also ordered by my superiors to connect with other intelligence personnel in the sect to collect and update the information of Zhaixing Valley. I don't know who the sect will send this time, and whether they can catch the remnants of the Dai family in one fell swoop.

However, while secretly observing, he suddenly discovered that there was something wrong with the white mist over there in the Star Picking Valley. The color gradually changed from light to dark, as if it had been polluted by something.

The group of academy students who were out for an outing also noticed something was wrong. They stood outside the valley in confusion, not knowing what was going on inside. It seemed like a huge change.

Just as they were discussing this, a deafening roar was heard, and a surge of air waves burst out. The fog inside and outside the valley surged like a tide and was pushed directly to the periphery!
“Woof woof woof!~~~”

"Bang~~~"

These students were suddenly enveloped by thick fog. They instantly felt difficulty breathing and dizziness. They hurriedly crawled to escape into the distance. Fortunately, the outer fog had not been permeated by the evil spirit for too long. It was only a diluted shallow pollution that did not take their lives all at once.

I only heard a faint roar from behind:

"Ah!~~~Even if I become a ghost, I will not let you two go!"

"Gao Zuoda, hand over the second half of the secret technique! You are a despicable villain. How can you be a hero if you take advantage of others behind their backs? If you have the guts, fight me one-on-one!"

"Hahaha, while the snipe and the clam quarrel, the fisherman gains! Now each of us holds half, so no one of us can complete the task. If you want the complete secret technique, come and kill me!"

"Don't run, wait for me if you dare!"

……

Two figures shuttled quickly in the thick fog, one chasing and the other fleeing.

It turned out that Lao Mo was a cultivator in the late stage of foundation building, and he also had a powerful demon pet like the Dark Demon Dog. Even if Dai Zonghui, the head of the Dai family, overdrew his life for a short period of time, he was unable to defeat him and died of exhaustion at the last moment.

After Lao Mo got the storage bag, he was so excited that he took out the "Nine Transformations Golden Body Art" silk from it and was about to check its authenticity to prevent it from being replaced by Dai Zonghui before his death, but he was attacked unexpectedly.

While Voldemort was on the side, he was getting more and more arrogant and immediately made a move to snatch the secret body-building technique, but he failed and only tore off the second half in a hurry, while the first half was still firmly grasped in Old Mo's hand.

The two of them each took a look at half of the brocade, only to find that what was written on it was indeed the "Nine-Turn Golden Body Technique"!
Gao Zuoda was ecstatic that his bet had turned out to be right. Now he finally had the leverage to control Lao Mo. However, Lao Mo's joy turned into sorrow, and he became boundlessly angry.

Affected by the dark demon dog, he became increasingly insane and vowed to tear Gao Zuoda into pieces.

But since Gao Zuoda had been able to escape from his hands for a full ten years, he must have had excellent escaping skills. Even though Lao Mo was considered a top master in the Foundation Establishment Period, he would not be able to catch him for a while if the other party did not fight him head-on and only wanted to escape, so he could only chase him closely.

The two men rushed out of the valley, one chasing the other. Gao Zuoda wanted to escape to the west. As long as he could run back to Tianfu Mountain, then it would be Lao Mo's turn to escape.

Although Lao Mo was a little crazy now, he was not stupid. He quickly commanded the dark demon dog to run and block the west. Gao Zuoda had no choice but to run back and forth in the north, southeast and three directions.

Lao Mo and his dog could only block two directions no matter what, leaving Gao Zuoda free to do the rest. For a while, neither of them could do anything to the other.

At this time, Gao Zuoda inadvertently glanced in the distance and found a group of young Qi training monks crawling out of the fog. One of them happened to be wearing the clothes of a Xun Gu Sect disciple.

His mind raced, and he immediately figured out what to do. While running for his life, he secretly sent a message to the boy:

"I am Gao Zuoda, the new leader of Xun Gu Sect. I have just surrounded and wiped out the remaining members of the Dai family in Zhaixing Valley, and snatched the Nine Transformations Golden Body Technique that the leader needs. However, I am being hunted down by the remnants of the evil sect. You should go to Tianfu Mountain to ask for support!"

Gao Zuoda deliberately changed his excuse here. It was obviously Lao Mo, who came from the devil's way, who wiped out the remaining branches of the Dai family, and he only snatched half of the "Nine Transformations Golden Body Technique". However, he took all the credit in one breath.

The disciple commissioned by Yunchuan Academy was unaware of the truth, but he had heard of the new leader, Gao Zuoda, a deadbeat who refused to pay his debts. He left with a group of students from the academy without revealing anything unusual.

Lao Mo was only thinking about hunting down Gao Zuoda and taking back the "Nine Transformations of the Golden Body Technique", so he had no time to care about those small fry.

Ambassador Gao used his special skills to escape and ran farther and farther towards the north.
……

Tianfu Mountain, the meeting hall on the top of the mountain.

"What? Gao Zuoda got the Nine-Transformation Golden Body Technique and is now being hunted down by the remnants of the demonic sect?"

A group of Xun Gu Sect's high-ranking officials were sitting at their seats, drinking tea and discussing sect affairs. Just then, someone reported that a disciple had an urgent message that needed to be reported.

After hearing that Gao Zuoda was being hunted down, everyone looked different and pondered for a long time.

Lu Xiuming thought about it, and then discussed with Master Zhankong:

"Why don't we report this matter to the deputy leader first and let him make the decision?"

Master Zhankong nodded and was about to agree.

Mu Yan quickly interrupted at this time: "It's just a trivial matter, why bother Elder Hei Ku? He is in seclusion like the leader, and it would be inappropriate for us to rashly disturb him!"

The truth was that the Black Skull Demon Lord was busy practicing, so he delegated the matter of Lin Shan to Mu Yan. Mu Yan was afraid that he would leave an impression of incompetence in front of the two leaders, so he planned to solve the problem himself and then report it.

At this time, Wu Hanqiao on the side sneered. In the past two years, he and Mu Yan had been fighting for power in the sect and disliked each other. After all, apart from the chief steward Lu Xiuming and Master Zhan Kong, the two of them were considered the leading figures of the younger generation in the sect.

Before the Black Skull Demon King went into seclusion, he gave the leader's job to Mu Yan instead of him, which made him very unhappy, so he did not hesitate to sing the opposite tune:

"Master Mu boasted in front of the deputy leader before, but now he has not done everything right away and wants to conceal it. What is his intention?"

Mu Yan hurriedly explained: "I am not hiding the truth, but the deputy leader has just been in seclusion for less than a month. How can I bear to disturb him again? A mere remnant of the evil sect dares to hunt down the leader of our sect. We can just send people to kill him. Why bother with a war?" At this time, a man walked out from the prince. He was short and thin, with a resolute face. It was Li Yuanjie, the former prince of Guo State.

He took a step forward and saluted the four senior executives with his fists:
"I have joined the sect but have not achieved anything. I cannot sleep or eat when I think about it. Today, I heard that my fellow disciples are in trouble. I dare to ask for your order to allow me to rescue Brother Gao."

Mu Yan was overjoyed and walked over to help him up personally:

"Brother Yuanjie is a calm and steady person who does things flawlessly. I firmly believe that he will be able to bring back the secret technique this time!"

The other three senior executives nodded repeatedly. After spending these days together, they all thought that Li Yuanjie was steady and reliable, and a person who could get things done.

"Captain Li can take on this task, go quickly and come back quickly!"

Li Yuanjie had a calm expression and bowed.

"As ordered!"

……

Two months later, at the northwest border of Lu State.

A vast river flows endlessly; this is the upper reaches of the Lujiang River, where the water is surging and rushing wildly.

Gao Zuoda has been on the run all this time, and Lao Mo has been chasing him. Every time he wanted to escape towards Tianfu Mountain, he would be stopped in time by the big black dog, and he had no choice but to run farther and farther.

Lao Mo was also extremely exhausted. He hated Gao Zuoda to the core. This kid was really good at running. He had been chasing him for ten whole years but still couldn't do anything to him.

Could it be that this hunt will last another ten years?
Lao Mo was secretly depressed, and Gao Zuoda was also distressed. He waited and waited but no reinforcements came, and every day was torture.

After all, he is the one being hunted and has to be on guard all the time. One can imagine the high-risk pressure.

But fortunately, after waiting for so long, reinforcements finally arrived.

On the river, the two were fighting and running, when they suddenly found a short and thin man by the river, who had been waiting there for a long time.

"Who are you?"

Lao Mo sensed something was wrong. The other party's consciousness was firmly locked on him. It seemed that he was an enemy rather than a friend. He quickly held the double halberds seized from Dai Zonghui, the elder of the Dai family, across his body.

These two short spears are made of special materials and are sharp and hard. After refining them on the road for the past two months, Lao Mo found that they became more and more convenient to use and simply used them as his own magic weapons.

Gao Zuoda, who was standing nearby, turned around when he heard the voice and saw the short and thin man by the river. He was overjoyed to recognize him:

"Brother Li, I didn't expect it to be you!"

Li Yuanjie nodded lightly, with the demeanor of a master, and looked quietly at Lao Mo on the river, as if he was still observing this man's strength.

Lao Mo was secretly shocked. Not knowing the other party's background, he immediately raised his hands and asked loudly:

"Who are you, and why are you blocking my way?"

Li Yuanjie was originally a prince of Guo State, so he was naturally polite. He turned around and returned the greeting before answering slowly:
"I am just a nobody, a slave of a fallen country, not worth mentioning. I am here to take Brother Gao with me, please help me."

He didn't know that the two of them each held half of the brocade, and thought that Gao Zuoda had already obtained the complete "Nine-Transformation Golden Body Technique", so he decided to avoid conflict if possible. Whoever the remnants of the evil sect wanted to be wiped out could be wiped out, and I would only be responsible for bringing Gao Zuoda back to the mountain.

It can be seen that he is a person who seeks stability.

Lao Mo was afraid at first, but when he heard the other party was being evasive, he thought it was just a retail investor, or perhaps one of Gao Zuoda’s cronies, and his courage suddenly returned:

"Oh? Who gave you the courage to rescue Gao in front of me? You are only in the middle stage of foundation building, do you still want to fight with me?"

Li Yuanjie lowered his eyelids slightly and spoke slowly:
"Whether you can win or not, you have to fight to know, words are not enough."

"Hahahahaha~~~"

Lao Mo laughed wantonly and arrogantly. Ever since he abandoned his hidden identity, he has become more and more like a demon cultivator. In addition, he was originally a member of a gangster organization in the cultivation world. At this moment, he pointed his short spear at the riverside:

"Are you good at fighting? What's the point of being able to fight? To get involved you need power and background. Which gang are you from?"

Li Yuanjie looked up at him, his tone calm:

"My name is Ajie. If you don't like it, just call me Prince. I can handle it."

Lao Mo laughed loudly, looking up to the sky. The waves on the river spread out layer by layer, and the sound was heard for ten miles. After he finished laughing, he pointed at him and shook his head:

"It turned out to be a little punk!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the surface of the river suddenly became stagnant and the atmosphere suddenly became heavy.

When Li Yuanjie heard this, he felt angry for no reason, as if he had been greatly insulted.

Then he left the shore and walked onto the Lu River step by step, leaving no trace on the water.

As his body rose higher and higher on the river surface, a water dragon gradually emerged from the water under his feet.

Gao Zuoda quickly flew to his side, stood in a row with him, and looked down at Lao Mo.

Li Yuanjie stared at his opponent and said word by word: "I will reiterate one last time, I only want to take him away and don't want to cause any more trouble. Don't think I'm joking."

Lao Mo released the dark demon dog, and the rolling demonic energy began to pollute the surface of the Lujiang River again. The big black dog carried him into the sky.

"Unless you hand over the Nine-Turn Golden Body Technique, I will never let you go!"

Li Yuanjie sighed helplessly: "Then, let's fight it out."

"Bang bang bang~~~"

With splashes of water, the water dragon under Li Yuanjie's feet swooped down with the two of them on its back. The streamlined shape of the dragon's body and the scales formed by the water reflected the dazzling blue light. The strong and powerful dragon claws had already carried the surging river water and swooped down!

“Woof woof woof!~~~”

Lao Mo released the dog again and used it as a magic weapon to meet the enemy.
