Dual Cultivation: A Carefree Journey Through Another World, the Empress Falls into My Hands

"I never expected that the Wang family's well-prepared and covert poisoning method would be so easily cracked."

It seems this is going to be a bit tricky!

Chu Yunfan hid in the cave, his mind racing as he considered his next move.

A moment later, he sensed the movement of people and dogs passing overhead and immediately crawled out of the tunnel.

The commotion he made when he came out naturally alerted the Martial Grandmaster of the Wang family who had just passed by, as well as the hunting dog he was leading.

However, before this Martial Grandmaster could react...

Two flashes of sword light, and he and the dog in his hand were both decapitated at the same time.

With a thought, Chu Yunfan put the corpse of the Martial Grandmaster into his storage ring, then immediately activated full-speed mode and fled in a certain direction.

He felt a gaze fixed on him from behind, sending a chill down his spine.

The one who locked onto Chu Yunfan was naturally Wang Xueyi, the Martial Venerable Realm expert who led the team from the Wang family.

When Chu Yunfan killed the Martial Grandmaster, Wang Xueyi noticed the unusual commotion and rushed over immediately.

However, he underestimated Chu Yunfan's speed.

When he arrived, he only saw the carcass of a hunting dog.

"So fast!"

Wang Xueyi glanced at the corpse, then chased after Chu Yunfan in the direction he had fled.

The speed of a Martial Venerable Realm expert is naturally much faster than that of Chu Yunfan. Wang Xueyi quickly caught up to a position a few dozen meters behind Chu Yunfan.

This distance was enough for his attack to be effective.

However, just as he was about to make a move, Chu Yunfan unleashed the sword intent of wind, instantly accelerating and widening the distance between them.

Wang Xueyi was stunned for a moment.

"Can it go faster?"

He then continued to chase after Chu Yunfan.

However, before Wang Xueyi could catch up with Chu Yunfan, Chu Yunfan, who was on the run, was attacked by others.

With a few whooshing sounds, several arrows suddenly shot out from the shadows and flew towards Chu Yunfan's body.

Fortunately, Chu Yunfan heard the sound of the arrows whistling through the air and judged their position in time, thus avoiding the arrows.

However, Chu Yunfan's escape speed was still slowed down by these arrows.

It turned out that, in addition to the herb-gathering team, the Wang family had also arranged another group of people to be stationed around the team to deal with any potential enemies.

The people who just fired the arrows to ambush Chu Yunfan were some of those people.

Because of Chu Yunfan's delay, the Martial Venerable Realm expert behind him immediately caught up again.

Seeing this, Chu Yunfan immediately shot several silver needles behind him and then continued to flee.

Wang Shouyi, who was chasing Chu Yunfan, saw silver needles coming from ahead and immediately struck out with his palm, knocking the needles down.

This also affected the speed of his pursuit.

Thus, whenever Chu Yunfan was attacked by arrows, he would take the opportunity to launch silver needles to attack Wang Xueyi from behind, which was how he managed to avoid being caught up by Wang Shouyi.

Because Chu Yunfan was too fast, he quickly broke free from the encirclement of the people who were secretly attacking him.

However, just as Chu Yunfan was about to continue his all-out escape, a blinding blade of light, almost tangible, was slashing towards him from directly in front of him.

At the critical moment, Chu Yunfan used the sword intent of wind to shift his body and dodge the blade.

But then, a powerful pressure from a Martial Venerable Realm expert descended upon him, causing his escape to slow down.

"There are Martial Venerable Realm experts lying in ambush ahead!"

Chu Yunfan was startled.

However, before he could react...

Wang Shouyi, who was behind them, also caught up.

Upon seeing Chu Yunfan, Wang Shouyi didn't say a word and immediately struck Chu Yunfan with a palm.

Suddenly, a huge spiritual energy hand, composed of spiritual energy but already solidified into a physical form, slammed down heavily from above Chu Yunfan's head.

At this moment, Chu Yunfan's speed slowed down due to the pressure from the hidden Martial Venerable Realm expert.

Seeing that he couldn't avoid the spiritual energy palm in time, Chu Yunfan directly used his most powerful move - Gale Falling Leaves.

However, unlike the previous "Wind and Falling Leaves" technique, this time, instead of a sky full of dancing sword energy, all the sword energy was slashing towards the same spot on the spiritual energy palm.

This is the second form of attack of the whirlwind and falling leaves, which concentrates all the sword energy into one point, and the attack is continuously superimposed to exert tremendous power.

With the blessing of the supreme spiritual weapon, the Wind Spirit Sword, the power of this sword strike doubled once again.

Finally, under Chu Yunfan's expectant gaze, the sword cleaved a crack in the spiritual energy palm, which then split in two, grazing his body and flying away.

With two loud bangs, two deep craters were punched out behind Chu Yunfan by a giant palm of spiritual energy.

Just then, a surprised voice came from above Chu Yunfan's head.

"It's a top-grade spiritual artifact!"

At the same time, three snow-white blades, each over ten meters long and seemingly solid, descended in a triangular formation from above Chu Yunfan's head, completely blocking his escape route.

However, at this critical moment, a hole suddenly appeared under Chu Yunfan's feet.

Immediately afterwards, Chu Yunfan's body fell into the hole.

Then, the blade flashed, cleaving three deep cracks, each tens of meters long, into the spot where Chu Yunfan had been standing.

However, Chu Yunfan's figure had already disappeared.

Even the hole that had just appeared was buried by these three blades of light.

"what's the situation?"

"Why did you disappear suddenly?"

Two exclamations rang out simultaneously.

Then, two figures appeared where Chu Yunfan had been standing.

One of them was Wang Shouyi, who had just been chasing Chu Yunfan.

The other person was none other than Wang Panfeng, the captain of the Wang family's guards.

It turned out that tonight, Wang Panfeng was leading another group of men, lying in ambush in the shadows.

The one who just flashed the blade was Wang Panfeng.

However, Wang Panfeng did not expect that the seemingly flawless ambush plan would allow Chu Yunfan to escape right under their noses.

Meanwhile, the rest of the Wang family's guards arrived one after another.

Upon seeing these people arrive, Wang Panfeng immediately pointed to the spot where Chu Yunfan had just disappeared and loudly commanded:

Half of the men dispersed to search for the murderer's trail.

The other half stayed behind and dug the place up to the bone!

"Yes!"

Upon hearing Wang Panfeng's order, the Wang family guards sprang into action.

Soon, the guards dug out a deep pit.

What appeared before them was a pitch-black tunnel about one meter in diameter.

Looking at the tunnel, Wang Panfeng's face turned grim, and he said coldly:

"It seems that there is more than one murderer, and someone else is helping him in secret."

Otherwise, there wouldn't be a tunnel here by chance!

Upon hearing this, Wang Shouyi nodded and then spoke:

"Then let's hurry and chase after him, he can't have gone far!"
