Immortal Cultivation Families: The Rise of the Jinling Immortal Clan

After saying that, he quickly retreated. Xia Guangyan stood there, motionless for a long time. At this moment, he was extremely conflicted. His family had raised him and had given him resources every year for many years. He naturally wanted to repay his family.

However, he knew that going back now would most likely mean his death, and since he had not yet broken through to the Foundation Establishment stage, he could not easily give up. In the end, his expression returned to normal in a moment, and he continued to follow the others forward. The others in front also noticed Xia Yuhui's departure, but they did not ask any questions; it was his own choice.

As Xia Guangyan sped along, he couldn't help but recall Xia Yuhui's words.

"Don't worry, Yu Hui, I will definitely take good care of the family!"

Meanwhile, Xia Yuhui was rushing along when he heard a sound coming from afar. He was overjoyed and quickly used his divine sense to investigate. Unfortunately, he was greatly disappointed when he found no trace of Xia Guangzheng or Xia Yufeng coming from the direction of the sound.

Instead, two other cultivators were being chased by demonic wolves. Xia Yuhui ignored their reactions and quickly flew away into the distance. As he expected, the group had already dispersed, and dispersed very thoroughly. There were no cultivators within a ten-mile radius.

Xia Yuhui had no choice but to continue searching his surroundings. However, just as he seemed to have found some clues, a wolf demon suddenly appeared within his spiritual sense range. This wolf demon had a clear target and ran straight towards him. Xia Yuhui guessed that it should be one of the wolf demons that had been chasing the two cultivators earlier.

It must have sensed his presence and thus chased after him. If a fight were to break out, Xia Yuhui would have no fear. However, his primary task now was to meet Xia Guangzheng and Xia Yufeng. If he continued to waste time on this demon wolf, Xia Guangzheng and Xia Yufeng's location might gradually drift further and further away from him.

Therefore, he could only continue searching for the two's trail. Just as he was speeding away, the wolf suddenly vanished without a trace, and no matter how he used his divine sense to search, he found nothing. Xia Yuhui knew that the wolf had used its invisibility technique again and was probably rushing towards him.

Xia Yuhui made no comment on this, but instead quickly flew off in a certain direction.

In a short while, he arrived at a forest where a fierce battle had just taken place. Most of the surrounding trees were damaged, and the corpses of two demon wolves lay on the ground.

Xia Yuhui immediately used his divine sense to carefully scan the area and discovered the traces of the spirit-trapping array that Xia Guangzheng had set up. After getting the result, he was immediately delighted, but then he realized that Xia Guangzheng's ability to use the array and break it meant that the opponent they were facing was probably very powerful.

Based on the remaining clues, it appears that Xia Guangzheng and Xia Yufeng were engaged in a fierce battle with several demon wolves at this very spot.

In the end, the two successfully escaped. Xia Yuhui quickly put the two wolf corpses on the ground into his storage bag, and then fled in one direction at high speed.

At his speed, he should be able to catch up with them soon. After all, the two of them are being chased and will inevitably stop from time to time to fight the demon wolf.

Sure enough, not long after, six wolf demons appeared within his spiritual sense range, and Xia Yuhui immediately gave chase. Less than half an incense stick's time later, Xia Yuhui realized that the wolf demons seemed to have caught up with their target again and were engaged in battle with two cultivators.

However, Xia Yuhui couldn't confirm the identities of the two men, but he still decided to go forward to investigate. Xia Yuhui knew that if the two men in front of him were not Xia Guangzheng and Xia Yufeng, he would have difficulty escaping, but what could he do now that things had come to this?

After Xia Yuhui had run a distance, the two cultivators suddenly smiled and rushed towards him. Xia Yuhui's figure suddenly stopped. Clearly, the two cultivators in front wanted to bring trouble to this place.

However, he still rushed forward without hesitation, because he was now somewhat confident.

After all, he knew Xia Guangzheng and Xia Yufeng's character well and guessed that they were very likely to act in this way. Of course, if it were him, he would also do the same without hesitation. After all, it's better to sacrifice a friend than to sacrifice oneself.

A short while later, the two sides met.

When Xia Guangzheng and Xia Yufeng saw Xia Yuhui, they were immediately shocked. They had originally intended to use someone else to do their dirty work, but they never expected that they would end up bringing trouble upon their own family.

Xia Yuhui looked at the two men, his face instantly turning extremely ugly. The two men were already covered in wounds and had almost no magic power left. If he didn't come to their rescue, they would probably die today.

"Yu Hui, you're being foolish!" Xia Guangzheng immediately rebuked after the three of them reunited.

He hadn't expected Xia Yuhui to act this way. No wonder he felt something was off about Xia Yuhui when they parted; who would have thought Xia Yuhui would turn back?

If all three of them were to perish here today, the Xia family would be in even worse shape, and might even be wiped out. His original plan was to cover their retreat at the cost of his life so that Xia Yufeng could escape back, but unexpectedly, he turned back immediately after seeing Xia Yuhui off.

At this moment, Xia Yufeng suddenly burst into laughter: "Thank you, Fifth Brother. I'm afraid I can't repay your and Fifth Uncle's kindness. I'll stay behind to cover your retreat and fight my way out for you. Don't worry, although I have very little magic power left, I have been practicing my body diligently and have made some progress. Even without magic power, I can hold you off for a while."

After saying this, he tried to back away, but Xia Yuhui grabbed him and took out two bottles of pills from his storage bag, giving them to the two of them. Then he said in a deep voice, "Don't worry, I still have a backup plan. The three of us will definitely be able to return safely today."

However, the two were still skeptical, after all, even with a backup plan, it would be difficult to withstand the six demonic beasts behind them. They were already heavily wounded, and even with their full strength, they could only hold off two of the demonic wolves for Xia Yuhui for a short while.

Xia Yuhui noticed the expressions on the two men's faces, and without hesitation, he withdrew and went straight for the demon wolf at the front.

"You wicked creature, how dare you! Behold the might of my thunder!" The demonic wolf showed no fear and pounced at lightning speed, as Xia Yuhui shouted fiercely.

In an instant, five crimson bolts of lightning shot out from Xia Yuhui's hands, exploding in the air, striking the demon wolf with lightning speed. Xia Yuhui's attack was extremely tricky, and the demon wolf had no way to avoid it.

Boom!

The wolf's fur instantly exploded, and its body was blasted into pieces of flesh and blood, scattering in all directions.

After succeeding, Xia Yuhui did not linger and quickly withdrew.

When Xia Guangzheng and Xia Yufeng saw Xia Yuhui's incredible bravery, their eyes lit up as if they had seen a glimmer of hope.

After the three met, Xia Guangzheng said, "Well done. It seems that even this old body of mine will have to rely on your protection now."

Despite this, Xia Guangzheng's face remained solemn. Although Xia Yuhui's lightning strikes were incredibly powerful, they had a fatal flaw: Xia Yuhui's reaction speed was too slow.

He had only managed to kill the wolf by taking advantage of its carelessness. As for the five demonic beasts behind him, they had already figured out Xia Yuhui's methods, and given their speed, Xia Yuhui would probably have difficulty hitting them again.
