Chapter 2094 - 2095: Chance to Escape

Liu Feiyang said, "Suit yourself."

The three people from Tianling Spirit Palace walked towards Ling Zhenfei, carrying their precious swords.

At this moment, both Ling Zhenfei and the Elf Princess were like lambs waiting to be slaughtered, completely unworried.

The most proactive among them was the one who had used his senior brother to block a blow from Ling Zhenfei.

This person definitely wanted to kill Ling Zhenfei. As long as Ling Zhenfei was killed, there would be no witnesses.

He walked up to Ling Zhenfei, sword in hand, and with a slight smile said, "Don't meddle in others' affairs. I'll offer paper money for you during Qingming."

After saying this, he thrust his sword towards Ling Zhenfei.

Just then, the sky suddenly darkened, and a shadow descended from above. The Lightning Bird's claws aimed right for this person's head.

In fact, Ling Zhenfei had long noticed the Lightning Bird in the sky. It was flying too high for the people below to notice. Now that Ling Zhenfei was in trouble, it swooped down.

Ling Zhenfei knew his chance had come; his only chance to escape was with the Lightning Bird.

Ling Zhenfei had been hit by the Thunder Tribulation Sword Technique earlier and was indeed injured, and his spiritual energy couldn't be called upon for the moment.

Yet, at this life-and-death moment, a burst of strength erupted from within Ling Zhenfei, and he jumped up from the ground, rushing towards the Elf Princess.

By now, the Lightning Bird had already used its wings to sweep the two Tianling Spirit Palace disciples away.

At this point, Ling Zhenfei had already picked up the Elf Princess. All they needed was to jump onto the Lightning Bird's back, and they'd have a good chance of escaping.

However, Liu Feiyang had already reacted and prepared to attack Ling Zhenfei and the Lightning Bird.

Liu Feiyang's longsword moved slightly, looking as if it was about to take flight.

If Liu Feiyang's longsword were to be unleashed, it would only take a moment, and their lives would be forfeit.

But Ling Zhenfei used his Soul Attack at this moment.

When Ling Zhenfei reached the Pursue Heart State, spiritual energy surged into his body and, of course, into his soul, rapidly advancing his Soul Passage.

Now, Ling Zhenfei's power of the soul was extremely strong.

Ling Zhenfei's soul had long enveloped everyone around them.

He suddenly launched a Soul Attack without holding back, knowing that a man like Liu Feiyang had a very strong soul.

Liu Feiyang's mind and spirit had already connected with his sword; a mere thought and it would strike. But suddenly, he felt as if his head had been hit.

With a buzz, his connection with the sword was suddenly interrupted, and the sword that was about to be drawn was halted.

This was the time difference Ling Zhenfei needed. While Liu Feiyang hesitated for a moment, he jumped onto the Lightning Bird's back.

The Lightning Bird knew how dangerous it was here; the previous heavenly thunder alone had been shocking enough.

With a flap of its wings, the Lightning Bird moved to a distant place, but sensed that Liu Feiyang's longsword was already flying towards them.

The Lightning Bird flapped again, creating more distance, but Liu Feiyang's sword still chased after them.

The Lightning Bird had to accelerate a third time, finally shaking off Liu Feiyang's sword.

The Lightning Bird was exceptionally exhausted and landed on a small hill to rest.

The Lightning Bird could fly at very fast speeds, but every acceleration had its distance limit, sometimes covering hundreds of meters in the blink of an eye.

However, after a few hundred meters, it would slow down again, needing to accelerate once more to maintain speed.

Ling Zhenfei placed the Elf Princess down gently and patted the Lightning Bird, saying, "Xiao Jin, I owe you again this time."

The Lightning Bird chirped softly in response and crouched in the grass to rest.

Ling Zhenfei sat next to the Elf Princess to rest, testing his body in the process.

Some spiritual energy was returning to Ling Zhenfei, but it might take a while before he was back to normal.

Thinking back, Ling Zhenfei felt fearful; the earlier move was surely Liu Feiyang's ultimate technique.

As the Elf Princess said, Liu Feiyang could harness the power of heaven and earth, which was truly terrifying.

Most cultivators using spiritual energy in attack were already very powerful, and Liu Feiyang, using the power of lightning, was something else altogether. It was as if he had been exceptionally fortunate to learn such a powerful technique.

But thinking about his own Heaven-Splitting Ten Fists, Soul Passage, and Spiritual Energy Deprivation, they seemed equally defying fate, although still not as impressive as Summoning Heavenly Thunder.

For Liu Feiyang to possess such a move, it was no wonder he could contend with Su Wei, let alone the Four Young Masters, especially since that move was so extraordinary.

At this point, the Elf Princess began to speak, "Are you sure you aren't a human spy?"

Ling Zhenfei paused, unsure of what she meant, and asked, "What do you mean?"

The Elf Princess said, "Actually, from the moment you appeared, I suspected you were a human spy trying to get close to me to uncover our secrets.

Ling Zhenfei found it amusing and said, "Do you have any secrets worth knowing?"

The Elf Princess responded, "Even if we did have secrets, I wouldn't tell you."

Ling Zhenfei replied, "I have no interest in knowing anyway. I saved you simply to repay the debt of saving my life. Now we're even. Once I return you, I'll leave."

The Elf Princess said, "Where will you go? It seems you've already been labeled a traitor by humanity. Returning would mean certain death."

Ling Zhenfei said, "That's none of your concern, that's my business."

The Elf Princess said, "It is related to me. You saved me once before by rescuing me, and today, once again. You've saved me twice. I owe you one."

Ling Zhenfei said, "No need. I'll throw in another save for free. Just tell me where your home is and how I can get there."

The Elf Princess sighed and said, "Our homeland is very far away. We only came here to resist you humans."

Ling Zhenfei laughed and asked, "Are you sure it's resistance and not slaughter?"

The Elf Princess said, "Of course it's resistance. You're invading our home, aren't we right to resist?"

Ling Zhenfei said, "But the humans' sole purpose here is to reclaim what's ours. Yet stepping onto your land leads only to slaughter by your hand.

No explanations, no negotiations—a welcome committee of swords and clubs. With so many deaths, isn't that slaughter?"

The Elf Princess laughed and said, "You intrude on another's home and speak so righteously? Truly, humans have no good ones left."

The Elf Princess snorted angrily, a look of indignation on her face, which, ironically, gave her an even more captivating presence.

Ling Zhenfei's heart skipped a beat, thinking that the Elf Princess was indeed as beautiful as a fairy; such a lady's death would truly be a pity.
