Duan Qi was just a lowly second-class disciple of the Beggars' Sect.

Following orders, he and several brothers came to guard the mountainside of Songshan.

The group was dispersed, each assigned to guard a section of the forest.

Duan Qi was naturally greedy and lazy. If it weren't for the three disciples above him forcibly ordering him, he wouldn't have been willing to come up the mountain in the middle of the night in the freezing cold.

The cold wind made him shiver.

Fortunately, there was a haystack in the place he was guarding, which was just right for catching the wind, so Duan Qi crawled inside.

He savored the taste of the woman he had abducted the day before, and then drifted off to sleep.

Duan Qi was startled awake by a pain in his leg, though he didn't know how long he had been asleep.

While his mind was still reeling, he saw three people: a man and two women, all wearing ill-fitting gray monk robes.

The man was handsome, but his face still had a childish look, and he was clearly still a teenager.

The young woman beside him had grown into a graceful young lady, far more beautiful than the woman Duan Qi had forced upon him.

If the standing girl is a rare beauty, then the unconscious woman carried by the boy must be an absolute fairy who fell from the sky.

Duan Qilian couldn't even imagine that there could be such a beautiful woman in the world.

The two stunningly beautiful faces instantly brought him to his senses.

Duan Qi thought to himself, if this fairy-like figure opened her eyes, it would definitely be a face that even the heavens would covet.

He couldn't help but fantasize about riding these two beauties under his crotch and humiliating them.

Then Duan Qi lost consciousness forever.

Xingnu noticed the way this "Beggar Clan" disciple was looking at her, and a feeling of disgust rose in her heart.

The beggar's hungry and greedy gaze made her extremely uncomfortable.

Fortunately, in the next instant, Ah Fei made him close his eyes forever.

Afei frowned, realizing that they had now entered the Beggars' Sect's guarded area.

He tightened his grip on Lianxing's shapely buttocks and drew his sword.

Time is running out.

Afei looked at Xingnu and said:

"Can you still hold on?"

Xingnu gritted his teeth and whispered:

"I'm fine."

She also knew that now was a critical moment.

Although she was nearing her physical limit, she couldn't show it in front of Ah Fei.

Xingnu paused, then said:

"If necessary, I..."

Ah Fei knew what she was going to say, so he interrupted her and said:

"Don't worry, I will never let that happen. Just follow me. Let's go."

As he spoke, he took a step forward and walked ahead of Xingnu.

Now that we have the "Heavenly Divine Water," we must use it at a crucial moment.

Three drops are enough to kill three people.

Afei, along with Xingnu, once again disappeared into the darkness.

Shortly after they left, a whistle suddenly came from behind them, indicating that the beggar's body had been discovered.

Time was of the essence; there was simply no time to bury it.

The sound carried far on the wind.

In an instant, the Beggars' Sect disciples guarding the mountainside all sprang into action, gathering in the direction from which the whistle had come.

Jin Lin was overjoyed when he heard the signal from his disciple.

He actually guessed right.

On the other side of the mountain, he searched for A-Fei and his group for a long time without any results. A thought flashed through his mind, and he guessed that A-Fei had most likely taken a detour.

He excitedly rallied his men and ran toward the direction from which the whistle had come.

From afar, he saw a group of disciples gathered there, and his confidant had already cleared a path for him.

Jin Lin stepped forward, and one of his men turned Duan Qi's body upright for him to see, saying:

"Elder Jin, he was killed by having his throat slit, a single blow."

Jin Lin's expression was grim. He recalled the image of Bai Xiaosheng being slit in the throat with a single blow and said in a deep voice:

"That's right, it's that kid's swordsmanship. Have any of you found any trace of him?"

He was asking the people who first discovered the body.

The leaders of the beggars, who were disciples of the Three Bags, hurriedly stepped forward to report:

"Elder Jin, they left traces in the places they went, and I have already sent people to chase after them."

"It's in that direction."

He pointed to the direction diagonally downhill, and continued:

"However, this kid is very cunning and never takes the mountain paths. The disciples' stamina is limited, and they can't keep up..."

Jin Lin snorted coldly and said:

"If we leave everything to you bunch of good-for-nothings, everything will be delayed."

Having said that, he immediately instructed his trusted confidants:

"Their speed is definitely not fast enough. Go and inform the disciples below immediately."

"Let them each find a hiding place and lie in ambush, surrounding the mountains and forests."

The trusted confidant who had been given the order said:

"Yes, Elder Jin. Should we arrange for people to guard those mountain paths?"

Jin Lin thought for a moment and said:

"No need, they definitely won't dare to go onto the main road. Just lie in ambush in the woods."

Upon hearing this, the confidant obeyed the order and sped away.

A smug glint flashed in Jin Lin's eyes; he had finally caught the kid by the tail.

He was even somewhat grateful to Afei.

Thanks to Afei being suspected of murdering Nangong Ling, as long as this kid is caught, Jin Lin will surely become the gang leader.

Whether Ah Fei was the real killer or not was no longer important at the moment the "Three Elders of the Beggars' Sect" were chasing him.

As Afei traversed the mountains and forests, his brows gradually furrowed, and he slowed his pace.

Xingnu's panting was getting heavier and heavier, and she was starting to have trouble breathing.

As Ah Fei slowed down, she was finally able to catch her breath.

But now, with danger lurking everywhere, it's clearly not the time to rest. Star Slave, panting, asked:

"Ah Fei...w-what's wrong?"

Ah Fei seemed to be talking to himself, yet also answering her, murmuring:

"When I killed that beggar, I didn't have time to hide, so I had to expose my whereabouts."

"We've been running through the woods. The snow there is smooth, and our footprints are very obvious. They'll definitely follow us."

"But now, due to ingrained habits of thought, they must assume that we will still use the woods to hide."

Xingnu nodded and said:

"That's right, and we're not as fast as them; we'll be caught up sooner or later."

A look of worry appeared in her beautiful eyes.

Ah Fei composed himself and said:

"That's right, so now we'll take the main road."

As he spoke, he reversed his grip on the sword and lifted Xingnu up by the waist with his arm.

Xingnu was startled, her beautiful face flushed, and she hugged Afei's neck tightly.

Listening to Afei's analysis, she couldn't help but admire Afei's quick thinking.

This man always gives her a sense of security.

Ah Fei picked her up and lifted her into the air, his clothes billowing in the wind.

He lightly touched the tree branch with his toes and leaped towards the main road.

Although the restored true energy is not much, it must be used now.

Their footprints disappeared once again.

On the main road, the snow surface was covered with footprints by the Beggars' Sect disciples, making it impossible for anyone to trace their path.

Despite this, the road offers a wide field of vision and is easy to spot.

If he hadn't been certain that the enemy had been misled, Ah Fei would never have taken the main road.

On the way, Afei did not put Xingnu down.

He had just sensed that Xingnu was lacking in strength, so he let her rest while he had regained some of his own.

Xingnu rested peacefully on Afei's shoulder, while Lianxing lay unconscious on the other side.

Although he was certain there were no ambushes on the road, Ah Fei still dared not let his guard down.

Relying on the extraordinary hearing and eyesight granted by the "Mingyu Gong," he explored as he ran down the mountain.

Suddenly, his expression froze.
