Family Cultivation: Rise of the Wilderness

Chapter 520 Escape
"Su Qing, what are you still standing there for?"

Master Miaoyin's expression turned cold instantly, and she rebuked him.

Su Qing's gaze shifted and settled on the dying Liu Xiong Yu, and she raised her long sword once more.

"Qing'er, wait a minute."

Liu Xiongyu struggled to lift his head, his tone carrying a hint of pleading.

However, Su Qing remained unmoved. Her white sword energy, as cold as frost, tore through the air in an instant, heading straight for Liu Xiong Yu.

At the critical moment, a loud "bang" rang out on the field.

Countless thick white mists burst forth, filling the entire hall.

The Blackwater Serpent's thick body rolled out of the white mist and appeared in front of Liu Xiong Yu in an instant, taking Su Qing's attack head-on, its flesh and blood flying everywhere.

Li Xiangming then appeared and pulled Liu Xiong Yu along. The two sat on the back of the Black Water Serpent and sped towards the end of the tunnel.

"Want to run?"

Master Miaoyin was furious and gave chase.

The flock of crows howled and swarmed, their wings forming a flowing black robe that billowed behind her.

Li Xiangming turned around and saw this scene, his face turning pale.

The Blackwater Serpent's sudden attack certainly had an unexpected effect, but given his and Little Black's speed, they would be caught up in less than ten breaths. At that time, who would be able to stop the Myriad Sounds Immortal?
"Li Xiangming, hold on tight to me."

Liu Xiongyu suddenly spoke weakly.

Li Xiangming couldn't help but glance at the other party, but dared not say anything. He put the Black Water Serpent into his sleeve and took out a new Swiftness Talisman to ensure that the two of them would not fall behind in speed.

At that moment, the cawing of crows behind them grew closer and closer.

"Aren't you going to stop?!"

With a sharp shout, Master Miaoyin grabbed at the air with her five fingers, distorting the airflow throughout the passage. The stone walls groaned under the pressure of the violent magical power.

Just as the shockwave was about to engulf the two, strange black smoke billowed from Liu Xiong Yu's body.

The smoke seemed to have a life of its own, swirling and turning, instantly forming a black whirlwind that swept him and Li Xiangming away into thin air.

"Wind Release?"

The shock and anger of the Myriad Sound Immortal echoed through the passageway.

A sickly flush suddenly rose on her pale face, and her fingernails dug deeply into her palms from her sleeves: "Even if it's a wind escape technique, it won't escape my grasp!"

Before the last word even landed, her figure had already become a blur, leaving scorched marks in the air wherever she passed.

"boom!"

Just then, the underground palace trembled again.

The Yellow Turban Warrior's burly figure stepped out from around the corner, his golden eyes instantly locking onto the approaching Myriad Sounds Immortal.

"Intruders."

The Yellow Turban Warrior snorted and unleashed a powerful golden palm strike.

Master Miaoyin was unable to dodge in time and hastily launched an attack.

The two magical forces collided, instantly cracking the walls of the passageway, sending shards of stone flying and smoke billowing into the air, creating utter chaos.

When the dust settled, the Yellow Turban Warrior remained unmoved.

On the contrary, Master Miaoyin took a step back, even her hair was somewhat disheveled.

At the same time, Su Qing also arrived.

The Yellow Turban Warrior's golden eyes suddenly brightened, and his massive body prostrated himself at his knees: "Master."

Upon seeing this, Master Miaoyin's expression turned even more unpleasant, and she glared angrily at Su Qing: "How could this idiot be here?"

Su Qing quickly knelt down and explained, "This disciple noticed the invasion of foreign enemies, which is why I sent the Yellow Turban warriors into the underground palace to eliminate them."

"foreign enemy?"

Master Miaoyin, still furious, slapped Su Qing across the face and sneered, "I don't think so, do I? Someone who knows Wind Release, are they still your enemy?"

Su Qing paused, covered her face, lowered her head, and remained silent.

Master Miaoyin seemed to regret it a little. She squatted down, lifted Su Qing's chin, and her tone gradually became gentle: "Su Qing, you are my only disciple. You cannot betray me."

"Disciples don't dare."

Su Qing responded softly. Master Miaoyin gently pulled Su Qing's head into her arms and continued, "The Su family is gone. Now, only the two of us are left in Ziyin Cave. Didn't you say you didn't want to leave? Don't worry about who they are. Go and kill them now. Ziyin Cave doesn't need outsiders."

"Disciple understands."

Su Qing's expression turned solemn as she slowly stood up.

Just as she was about to leave, a flash of white light appeared in Master Miaoyin's hand, revealing a bronze lamp: "Take the Bone-Crying Lamp with you, lest you disappoint your master."

Su Qing paused for a moment, then respectfully accepted the bronze lamp.
-
"Chief Liu?"

On the long corridor, Liu Xiong Yu fell to the ground, his chest and abdomen covered in blood.

Li Xiangming, standing to the side, was also suffering; the speed of his Wind Release technique made it almost impossible for him to breathe.

However, at this moment, he disregarded his own condition and hurriedly stepped forward to help Liu Xiong Yu up: "Chief Liu? Wake up! Wake up!"

However, no matter how he called out to him, Liu Xiong Yu did not respond.

Li Xiangming's face was pale. He had already examined it and found that Liu Xiongyu's heart was very unusual, growing on the right side, which was why Su Qing's sword strike had not been fatal.

Regardless of the circumstances, Liu Xiong Yu was critically injured and in urgent need of treatment and rest.

But with Master Miaoyin pursuing them, how could they possibly have that opportunity?
Not only did he not have any, Liu Xiong Yu also forcibly used Wind Release, and now his injuries have deteriorated to the extreme.

After hesitating for a moment, Li Xiangming took out a snow-white pill from his pocket.

This is the Ice Vein Pill!
Don't underestimate its small size; it has the miraculous effect of protecting the heart and prolonging life.

Of course, the price is also very high, with each one costing five hundred spirit stones.

Five hundred spirit stones are neither a lot nor a little for Li Xiangming now, and he wouldn't feel bad even if he gave them to Liu Xiong Yu.

The Ice Vein Pill is different; it's not something you can just buy whenever you want.

In places like Pushui Market, you might not see the Ice Vein Pill for three to five years. But as soon as it appears, it's snapped up in no time.

With his immense wealth, Li Xiangming only carried one Ice Vein Pill. If he were to give it to Liu Xiong Yu, he would undoubtedly lose a crucial safeguard in the perilous Purple Yin Cave.

In the end, however, Li Xiangming still stuffed the Ice Vein Pill into Liu Xiong Yu's mouth.

The two are now in the same boat.

Without Liu Xiong Yu's Wind Escape technique, he really didn't know how to face Master Miao Yin.

The Ice Vein Pill worked immediately, and the blood foam overflowing from Liu Xiong Yu's chest gradually decreased.

Li Xiangming wasn't a doctor and couldn't do much more, so he carried him and planned to go further away.

Suddenly, heavy footsteps sounded from afar.

Li Xiangming was startled and quickly turned around, only to find that Su Qing was already standing three zhang away, her white clothes fluttering slightly in the cold wind.

"You previously addressed him as Chief Liu?"

Su Qing asked softly, her tone devoid of any emotion.

Li Xiangming glanced at Liu Xiongyu, then turned to Su Qing.

He could tell that the relationship between the two was unusual, but their positions were clearly different. Judging from Su Qing's unhesitating act of drawing her sword to stab Liu Xiong Yu, this woman would never show him any mercy!
Nevertheless, Li Xiangming slowly replied, "Liu Xiongyu is the chieftain of Huanyun Village."

"Huanyun Village, huh?"

Su Qing murmured to herself, her pupils slightly unfocused.

Upon seeing this, Li Xiangming immediately pulled out two explosive talismans from his body and threw them over. At the same time, he made a hand seal, and several magical dragons coiled up from his feet, ready to unleash their power.

Su Qing came to her senses, gently raised her hand, and a bronze lamp floated in the air.

The base of the lamp was carved with twisted skull patterns, and the wick burned with a pale white flame. When the flame flickered, it made a faint whimpering sound, as if countless dead souls were sobbing softly.

Li Xiangming only glanced at it, yet he felt his soul tremble.

"What kind of magic weapon is this?"

Just as he was filled with surprise and doubt, the heavy footsteps came to an abrupt halt.

The towering figure of the Yellow Turban Warrior suddenly appeared behind Su Qing, casting a shadow that blotted out the sky and completely enveloping the two of them.

Li Xiangming's fighting spirit vanished completely. He grabbed Liu Xiongyu and his body emitted a burst of light.

Watching the two figures flee in panic, Su Qing sighed softly, "More than twenty years have passed, and you're still in such a sorry state!"
