Reborn as the Strongest Immortal Cultivator in Modern Times

Hearing him say that, Ye Yu was startled, not expecting that this person could actually discover that she was hiding here.

However, Ye Yu stopped hiding, took out a mask from her clothes, put it on, and came out.

She's already been discovered; there's no point in hiding any longer.

Although Xia Zhong knew there was someone hiding behind the rock, he was still surprised when he saw Ye Yu come out.

He never expected that the person hiding here was actually a little girl.

"How did you end up here?" Xia Zhong asked after scrutinizing Ye Yu for a moment.

Ye Yu had witnessed this man's prowess and did not wish to fight him.

Then, with an innocent and frightened expression, he said, "I came here with a tour group. Just now, the mountain shook a few times and revealed an enormous crater. Everyone was running away, and I was terrified. I ran and ran until I ended up here."

Xia Zhong smiled and asked, "Is that really true?"

If he hadn't followed Rao San with a clever plan, he would have had a hard time catching up with the two of them, given their speed.

However, the girl in front of them watched the whole thing from behind a rock, and they didn't even notice her presence, which shows that she was quite skilled.

Besides, this is a no-man's land, and it doesn't seem right for such a young girl to be here.

Ye Yu knew that Xia Zhong probably wouldn't believe her if she said that. But she had just overheard De Wu mentioning the location of the thousand-year-old ginseng, and Xia Zhong probably wouldn't let her off the hook.

Ye Yu spread his divine sense, trying to find a favorable escape route.

They were in a situation where there was only one road, but Xia Zhong had blocked the entrance, and the other three sides were stone walls.

Ye Yu nodded and said, "It's true. There are 20 people in our tour group. Look, I'm even carrying my backpack."

After she finished speaking, she turned slightly to the side, revealing a backpack with the tour group's logo.

Xia Tian glanced at the schoolbag and smiled, "It seems you're telling the truth. But I'm sorry, I still can't let you leave."

As soon as he finished speaking, he shot the dagger in his hand towards Ye Yu.

The dagger spun twice in the air, and suddenly nine more appeared out of thin air, making a total of ten daggers, which shot towards Ye Yu.

Ye Yu's expression changed; for a moment, she was unable to use her divine sense to pinpoint the location from which the blade had been shot.

However, she quickly dodged several times and narrowly avoided the knife.

The dagger sliced ​​across the stone wall where she was standing, leaving a deep mark, and then stuck directly into the stone.

Ye Yu's pupils contracted as she looked at the mark on the stone wall, thinking to herself: This person's methods are truly amazing. He clearly only threw out one dagger, but several afterimages appeared at the same time, making it difficult for her to distinguish which one was the real one.

Ye Yu became even more cautious. Xia Zhong was determined to kill her, so it wouldn't be surprising if he used any means necessary.

However, this person is really difficult to deal with. If she is not extremely careful today, she may very well die here.

Xia Zhong then pulled out a dagger from his waist and tossed it lightly into the air: "Not bad, little girl, you actually managed to dodge my move."

Then he looked Ye Yu over again: "And she's not injured."

After saying that, he shot the dagger in his hand at Ye Yu again. This time, the dagger created even more afterimages, a total of twelve.

Ye Yu was on guard against him at all times. When he made his move, she immediately shot out the fifteen bone needles in her hand to defend herself. The two objects collided and made a clanging sound.

Xia Zhong was surprised to see that Ye Yu also had a similar weapon that she used to defend herself.

However, he did not stop. As he shot out the dagger, he leaped forward and threw a punch at Ye Yu with his left hand.

Ye Yu couldn't dodge and had no choice but to take his punch head-on.

The moment their fists met, Ye Yu felt a powerful internal force strike her body.

Before she could react, Xia Zhong pulled the dagger stuck in the stone wall with his right hand and slashed at her directly.

Ye Yu was unable to free her hands to defend herself, and both of her arms were slashed, leaving her smooth, white skin covered in crisscrossing cuts and bleeding.

Immediately afterwards, she summoned her bone sword from her storage ring to block Xia Zhong's dagger that came at her again.

Due to their limited position, Ye Yu and Xia Zhong were constantly engaged in close combat, so the sword in her hand could not be very effective.

From the very beginning of their fight, Ye Yu was almost completely dominated by Xia Zhong.

She knew very well that this was only Xia Zhong's second attack, and he wouldn't stop until he killed her.

She knew she was no match for Xia Zhong. Her only option now was to escape.

However, Xia Zhong had blocked the way, and the only way to escape was to climb up the stone wall.

Xia Zhong stopped for the time being. He looked at Ye Yu's disheveled appearance and was somewhat surprised.

Even De Wu couldn't withstand his first attack, yet this young girl managed to hold out until his second.

Xia Zhong stared at Ye Yu and said, "Who exactly are you? How come you've been able to hold out against me for so long? And how did you just conjure a sword out of thin air?"

Ye Yu's mind raced. She couldn't continue fighting Xia Zhong; her spiritual energy was draining rapidly, and she had to find a way to escape as soon as possible.

This rock face is so steep, if Xia Zhong climbs it, he probably won't be able to catch up.

Having made up her mind, Ye Yu replied, "What do you care who I am? Take this!"

After he finished speaking, fifteen bone needles shot out at Xia Zhong.

Xia Zhong snorted coldly, and the two daggers slashed into two balls of light, shooting towards Ye Yu together.

Ye Yu's hands didn't stop either; she swung her bone sword more than a dozen times, the sword energy directly slashing towards Xia Zhong.

However, the sword energy was directly dispersed when it came into contact with the two orbs of light in Xia Zhong's hand.

Ye Yu had to admire Xia Zhong; he had become so adept at using the dagger that it was as nimble as his own hands.

Xia Zhong sneered inwardly. This girl was still young and thought she could resist him with these methods. She was simply ignorant of her own limitations.

He was about to reach Ye Yu when Ye Yu suddenly threw five yellow talismans at him.

He paused for a moment, then tried to slice the talisman into pieces with the dagger in his hand.

But the moment the talisman came into contact with the ball of light formed by the dagger in his hand, there was a loud bang, and the talisman exploded, the flames and mist obscuring his vision.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Ye Yu raised her right hand and sucked Xia Zhong in, pulling the wooden box in his arms into her hand out of thin air.

Without stopping, she immediately flew up to the stone wall.

Xia Zhong's arm was slightly injured by the explosion, and at the same time he felt his arms go empty. He quickly waved away the black mist in the air, patted his chest, and his face immediately turned gloomy.

He looked around, but Ye Yu was nowhere to be seen.

His ears twitched; he heard a noise above him.

Looking up, Ye Yu had flown a hundred meters high without using any tools, simply by pushing off the stone wall with his feet a few times.

Xia Zhong had lost count of how many times Ye Yu had amazed him. She could actually climb such a steep and smooth rock face with her bare hands, and at such a fast speed!

He gritted his teeth and shouted, "You little thief, don't you dare run away!"

He gripped the dagger tightly in both hands, leaped onto the rock face, and alternately stuck the dagger into the rock as he climbed upwards.

However, he was far slower than Ye Yu. When he looked up again, Ye Yu had already climbed into the clouds and mist of the stone wall, and he could only see a blurry figure.

Xia Zhong immediately threw the dagger in his hand at Ye Yu, and quickened his pace in climbing the stone wall.

However, when he climbed up the stone wall, he found that Ye Yu had already disappeared without a trace.

Xia Zhong's face showed an indignant expression. He punched the tree stump next to him with his right hand, breaking the stump in two.

He shouted a few times with a gloomy expression, venting his frustration.

After standing on the edge of the cliff for a while, Xia Zhong seemed to remember something, gave a cold laugh with his terrifying face, and started walking in one direction.

He remembered that Ye Yu had also heard about the whereabouts of the thousand-year-old ginseng. If she wasn't afraid of death, she would most likely go there.
