The smoke cleared, and the pungent smell of pepper spray lingered in the air. Bi Yao put away her slightly funny-looking "winning weapon" - a modern water gun, with a smile on her lips.

Li Yuan was rambling on about the battle, replaying the previous battle like a veteran cadre giving a summary report: "Yaoyao, your chili water is incredible! That villain's expression is simply a walking meme! Next time, can we consider mass production? Maybe we can even create a new school of immortal cultivation - the Spicy Eyes School! From now on, when you travel the world, you'll be nicknamed the 'Spicy Hands Immortal Couple'!"

Bi Yao smiled and shook her head: "Forget it, this kind of unconventional trick is just for fun. If you really want to face a master, you have to rely on your strength." Having said that, she couldn't help but weigh the water gun in her hand again. This thing is really a bit addictive.

"A new journey is waiting for us!" Li Yuan suddenly said seriously, with a gleam in his eyes.

He took Bi Yao's hand, and the two of them took off on their swords and flew into the distance.

They are looking for the legendary "Sky Star Grass", which is said to be able to greatly improve cultivation and is the key to breaking through bottlenecks.

However, this is not destined to be a smooth journey.

They had just flown less than a hundred miles when they were stopped by a group of men in black.

These people were dressed in black robes, their faces hidden under hoods, and they exuded a cold aura, like messengers from hell.

The position they were standing in was unusually mysterious, forming a strange formation. The air around them seemed to solidify, and an invisible pressure enveloped them, slowing down the movements of Bi Yao and Li Yuan.

"Who is it?" Li Yuan shouted loudly, with a hint of vigilance in his tone.

The man in black did not answer, but slowly raised the weapon in his hand.

These weapons have strange shapes and emit a faint cold light. It is obvious at first glance that they are not ordinary items.

There was a solemn and murderous atmosphere in the air, and the atmosphere was tense.

Bi Yao and Li Yuan exchanged glances.

"It seems that a fierce battle is inevitable." Bi Yao said softly, and a dagger flashing with cold light appeared in his hand.

Li Yuan clenched the sword in his hand, a confident smile on his face: "What are you afraid of? We are ruthless people who have even used pepper spray!" Before he finished speaking, the man in black pounced on him like a ghost.

The flashes of swords and sabers instantly intertwined into a web of death...

"Wait..." Bi Yao suddenly said, his eyes flickering.

Bi Yao and Li Yuan exchanged glances and were about to fight, but Bi Yao suddenly hesitated.

Tough?

Or outsmart it?

This group of men in black came with ill intentions and were clearly well prepared. A forceful attack would probably not yield any benefit.

But several plans quickly flashed through her mind, perhaps...

Li Yuan saw Bi Yao hesitate and was a little confused: "Yaoyao? Why..." He was about to continue asking, but saw Bi Yao frowning and his eyes flickering.

He walked to Bi Yao, stroked her hair gently, and said softly: "Yao'er, no matter what, we will face it together."

Bi Yao looked up at him, and felt the determination in his eyes, which warmed her heart.

Yes, when the enemy comes, we will fight him; when the water comes, we will block it with earth. What is there to be afraid of?

However, Bi Yao did not make a decision immediately as usual. Instead, he walked towards the black-robed man and said, "Everyone..."

Bi Yao did not make a decision immediately as usual. Instead, she walked towards the men in black robes and said, "My dear friends, I wonder why you are stopping us? In broad daylight, why are you making such a big fuss? Is there some misunderstanding?" As she spoke, she observed the men in black calmly, trying to find some clues.

The men in black robes remained silent, standing in the air like a group of sculptures. The atmosphere was weird and depressing.

This silence is more disturbing than any shouting.

Bi Yao thought to himself: It seems that the person who came here has bad intentions!

These guys are well-trained and tight-lipped, making them difficult to deal with.

At this moment, Bi Yao had a flash of inspiration and remembered the knowledge about micro-expressions and body language in modern psychology.

She calmly observed the subtle movements of the men in black, especially the hands holding their weapons and the way they stood.

Although these men in black are well-trained, they are still human after all and it is impossible for them to completely control their every move.

Sure enough, Bi Yao discovered that the fingers of one of the men in black, who was holding the weapon, trembled unconsciously, and his standing posture was slightly unstable, as if he was deliberately trying to maintain balance.

This subtle difference was keenly captured by Bi Yao.

"Found it!" Bi Yao was secretly delighted. The location where the man in black was located was most likely the weak point of the formation!

She calmly took a step back, returned to Li Yuan's side, and whispered in his ear, "Yuan, do you see that guy standing on the far left with a scimitar in his hand? His position is the weak point of the formation!"

Li Yuan followed Bi Yao's instructions and looked in the direction she was pointing. A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. "Yaoyao, are you sure? You can even see that? Do you have a third eye?"

Bi Yao smiled mysteriously: "The secret cannot be revealed! In short, you have to trust me! When I say start, you will attack that position with all your strength, don't hesitate!"

Li Yuan looked at Bi Yao's confident look and his heart was also filled with confidence.

He gripped the sword tightly, took a deep breath, and nodded: "Okay! I'll listen to you!"

Bi Yao observed the surrounding situation again, and after confirming that there was no other abnormality, he took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Start!" "Start!" Before the words fell, Li Yuan's figure shot out like an arrow, heading straight for the man in black holding a scimitar.

The long sword in his hand swung out a sharp sword flower, the sword energy was like a rainbow, and with the sound of breaking through the air, it slashed fiercely towards the position where the man in black was.

"A mere trifle!" The man in black snorted coldly, and swung the scimitar in his hand. A black gas instantly surged out and collided with Li Yuan's sword energy, making a deafening noise.

The blast blew the surrounding trees all over the place, raising huge clouds of dust.

"Oh my god, this guy is really capable!" Li Yuan couldn't help but complain. This black energy was so strange that it could actually corrode his sword energy.

He didn't dare to confront it head-on, so he quickly took a few steps back to avoid the erosion of the black air.

At this moment, Bi Yao took action.

She clasped her hands together and muttered something. Rays of golden light shot out from her fingertips, wrapping around the men in black like spirit snakes and disrupting their formation.

"Yaoyao, the eternal God!" Li Yuan was greatly encouraged upon seeing this, and rushed forward again with his sword in hand.

The men in black were disturbed by Bi Yao's magic, and there was a little chaos in their formation. Li Yuan seized the opportunity and rained down his sword energy, forcing the men in black to retreat again and again.

The two sides fought back and forth, and the battle was extremely fierce.

Although there were many men in black, Bi Yao and Li Yuan worked together in perfect harmony and managed to barely withstand their attacks.

However, Bi Yao felt vaguely uneasy.

This group of men in black are well-trained and have strange magic spells that are definitely not comparable to ordinary casual cultivators.

Who are they?

What's the purpose?

More importantly, are they really using their full strength now?

At this moment, the leading man in black suddenly blew a sharp whistle.

Upon hearing this, the other men in black immediately stopped their attack, quickly retreated, and disappeared into the night in the blink of an eye.

"Just...ran away?" Li Yuan looked at the empty night sky, bewildered.

Bi Yao frowned, and the uneasiness in his heart became stronger.

She turned to look at Li Yuan and said in a deep voice, "Yuan, I'm afraid things are not that simple..."

Li Yuan was about to speak when he suddenly felt a powerful aura approaching rapidly from a distance.

His expression changed, he grabbed Bi Yao's hand and shouted, "Be careful!"
