Chapter 17: Besieged
"Are you sure you want to know?"
Zi Xiao looked at the somewhat determined expression on Cao Qian's face, and asked with some uncertainty.
"What do you say?
Cao Qian listened to Zixiao's words and couldn't help but give her a roll of his eyes.
"Well, isn't that the one up ahead?"
Zixiao didn't pay attention to Cao Qian's white eyes, and pouted forward with her small mouth, squeezing her eyes. Cao Qian followed Zixiao's eyes, and saw several black-clothed people lined up, blocking Cao Qian and Zixiao's way forward.
There were a few sparse footsteps behind him, Cao Qian's heart sank, and he hurriedly turned around, and couldn't help but have a black line.
The road behind him was also blocked by a few men in black at some point. Cao Qian looked at Zixiao with a wry smile, this information is really timely.
"Miss Zi, you are also ...... It's so timely."
Cao Qian's eyes widened, and he looked at Zixiao speechlessly, wanting to say something, but he only held back such a sentence.
"Hehe, you originally called me Miss, I should have covered you, but I said that I was helpless, I had to go back to Zixiao's body. ”
Zixiao glanced at Cao Qian with some schadenfreude, then showed a regretful expression and said helplessly.
However, anyone with eyes could see a hint of schadenfreude in her eyes. There was an unclear curvature at the corner of his mouth.
“......”
Cao Qian looked at Zixiao's gloating expression, and suddenly was speechless, staring at Zixiao with some stunnedness, listening to Zixiao's meaning, did he want to abandon himself?
"Miss Zi, aren't you going to let me face this strong enemy on the front road and the pursuers on the back road alone?"
Cao Qian was a little incredulous, but he asked weakly without confidence.
"Hehe, you also know, I'm just a sword spirit, I can't leave the sword body body for a long time, I've been in the outside world for so long, it's almost to the limit. Excuse me......"
Looking at the expression on Zixiao's face that wanted to laugh but held back, and then listened to her euphemistic but really refusaling words, Cao Qian obviously felt a little wrong, and hurriedly reached out to grab Zixiao, but it was too late.
"Bye-bye!"
With a giggle, Zixiao's figure disappeared in place, turned into a streamer, and entered the Zixiao Sword on Cao Qian's waist.
"Uh......"
Cao Qian looked at the place where Zixiao disappeared speechlessly, and he really felt like crying, he felt that he was really betrayed. He remembered very well that he had been sold by the so-called "Emperor Seal" in his forehead not long ago, but how long had it be......en? I have to say that this is really unacceptable.
However, Chen Tai didn't care if he could accept it, as early as last night, they had already caught up with Cao Qian and them. Although he didn't take Cao Qian's strength in mind as a matter of strength, he still made some preparations to prevent them from escaping.
Chen Tai slowly approached Cao Qian, who had no way to go to the sky and no way to enter the ground, and looked around him with some doubts. He could see the scene of Zixiao's sudden disappearance just now, this fact was a little weird, no wonder he was puzzled.
"Strange, where did you go?"
Chen Tai shook his head and turned his gaze to Cao Qian, although Zixiao's sudden disappearance made him a little puzzled, but he hadn't forgotten that the purpose of their trip was Cao Qian. As long as Cao Qian is still there, then there will be no problem.
On the contrary, Chen Tai still had some concerns about Zixiao in his heart, because from last night to now, he had wanted to probe Zixiao's cultivation countless times, but he found that the divine thoughts he sent out were like stones sinking into the sea, and there was no response at all.
However, now he can clean up Cao Qian with peace of mind, he wants to know where this kid who dares to cut off his son's life is sacred.
"Heh, are you Cao Qian?"
Chen Tai looked at Cao Qian twice, and said a little playfully. He really wanted to know how Cao Qian's strength of the seventh layer of Qi refining could be so bold.
Of course, he didn't know that Cao Qian was also bitter and couldn't say it, and he admitted it after twisting the tiger, but at this critical moment, the culprit suddenly threw himself away, what is this called?
Although he wouldn't be so coveted as to ask a woman to protect him, he couldn't balance it in his heart!
"Yes and what?
Cao Qian glanced at Chen Tai with some indifference, and said nonchalantly. He was on fire now, but he didn't have time to beg for mercy from this negotiable enemy.
Besides, in the past two days with Zixiao, he was not lazy, but he practiced hard, anyway, he didn't know what to do, and accidentally broke through the seventh layer of qi refining.
However, Zi Xiao didn't feel too surprised, you must know that Cao Qian had eaten a thousand-year-old medicinal condensation grass raw before, although the effect was much worse than that of alchemy, but there was still a lot of free true qi in his body. In addition, he was baptized by the immortal altar later, and there was no longer the slightest impurity in his body.
Moreover, the most important thing is that at the same time as the baptism of the immortal altar, a lot of immortal cultivation knowledge was imparted, so that Cao Qian was no longer a rookie in cultivating the truth.
What Cao Qian is cultivating now is a book called "Tian Yuan Decision", although "Tian Yuan Decision" is only a local-level peak cultivation method, but as a foundation of the Qi refining period, its effect is far better than some heaven-level heart methods.
By the way, the cultivation of the true mind and the exercises are generally divided into four levels: human level, earth level, heaven level, and god level. The magic weapons are also divided into three categories: spiritual weapons, immortal weapons, and artifacts, and each category is divided into four subcategories: primary, intermediate, high, and top. And the Zixiao Sword in Cao Qian's hand is a high-level artifact, but its power is sealed, and even if it is not sealed, it can't be controlled with Cao Qian's subtle way.
Back to business.
Seeing Cao Qian's unscrupulous appearance, Chen Tai couldn't help but feel a little angry, a chirp of the seventh layer of qi refining, he dared to be so arrogant! Do you really think that it is great for you to reach this level at a young age? Do you really think that you are really a genius?
"Huh!"
Chen Tai was so angry by Cao Qian's actions that he wanted to laugh, he has seen less geniuses? Last time, the second son of the Zhang family was at the fifth level of qi refining at the age of 18, maybe a little worse than Cao Qian, but in this boundary, he was already a great genius, and he hadn't become a cripple?
"Boy, being young and frivolous also needs capital, and not knowing practice will become the biggest regret in your life!"
"Really? I don't think so."
Cao Qian didn't take Chen Tai's words to heart, he was young and frivolous? Did he have it? He did this just to provoke Chen Tai, so that he could take the opportunity to find an opportunity to break out. With so many people present, if anyone could really stop him, it would be only Chen Tai.
One-on-one heads-up, he may not be defeated by Chen Tai, but he also has a trick to escape, but there are so many stumbling blocks next to him, although he can't stop him, he can still do it if he delays for a second or two.
And at that time, once he was entangled by Chen Tai, it would be difficult to get out.
"So much nonsense, let's go together"
Cao Qian looked at Chen Tai coldly and said with disdain.
"Heh, boy, you're overestimating yourself, aren't you?"
Chen Tai sneered, turned around and said to the black-clothed man under him: "You are watching from the sidelines, you are not allowed to do it without my order!"
"Yes"
Watching the black-clothed people who surrounded him gradually retreat, scattered around, looking like watching a play, a trace of arc appeared at the corner of Cao Qian's mouth. This is exactly what he wants to see.
