"careful."
Lu Changsheng felt something in his heart and immediately reminded the woman in black.
The woman in black understood immediately. She and Lu Changsheng quickly dodged to both sides, only to see a cold light passing between the two of them and piercing the wall behind them.
The two of them turned around and saw the mysterious man in a cloak appearing again, holding a sharp sword with a cold light on the blade.
The woman in black glared at the mysterious man, her eyes filled with anger. She didn't expect this guy to be so difficult and cruel.
The mysterious man didn't say anything. He waved his sword and attacked Lu Changsheng and the woman in black again. The two hurriedly faced off and started a fierce battle with the mysterious man.
The mysterious man's swordsmanship is very strange, and his speed is extremely fast, making it difficult to parry. Lu Changsheng and the woman in black could only resist, and gradually fell into a disadvantage.
During the fierce battle, Lu Changsheng suddenly discovered a strange pattern exposed under the mysterious man's cloak.
This pattern looks like some kind of totem, exuding a mysterious atmosphere.
"What is this?" Lu Changsheng was shocked. He vaguely felt that this pattern was related to the identity of the mysterious man.
However, he had no time to think about it at this time.
The mysterious man's attacks became more and more fierce, and they could only go all out to try to find each other's flaws.
After a hard fight, Lu Changsheng and the woman in black finally found a flaw in the mysterious man's attack, and joined forces to launch a counterattack.
The mysterious man was forced to retreat, looking a little embarrassed.
However, the mysterious man did not give up. A cunning light flashed in his eyes, and he suddenly took out a black stone from his arms.
"No, get out of the way!" Lu Changsheng was shocked. He recognized the black stone as a powerful hidden weapon called the "Soul-Breaking Stone".
If hit by it, it can range from serious injury to death.
The woman in black also realized the danger, and she quickly stepped back.
However, it was too late, the Soul-Breaking Stone drew a strange arc in the air and headed straight for her.
At this critical moment, Lu Changsheng suddenly rushed in front of the woman in black and blocked her.
The soul-breaking stone hit Lu Changsheng's chest, and he spat out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground.
The mysterious woman's eyes widened and she looked at Lu Changsheng who was lying on the ground in disbelief.
She didn't expect that Lu Changsheng would actually sacrifice his life to save him, which changed her view of Lu Changsheng tremendously.
"You...why did you do this?" the mysterious woman asked with a trembling voice.
Lu Changsheng wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and forced a smile.
"Because we must unite now to deal with the crisis at hand," he said weakly, "If any one of us falls, it will be difficult to find Li Xiaoman."
After listening to Lu Changsheng's words, the woman in black was filled with gratitude.
She realized that Lu Changsheng was not only a stranger, but also a trustworthy partner.
"Thank you," the woman in black said sincerely, "From now on, we will join hands to find Li Xiaoman and at the same time, reveal the true face of the mysterious man."
Lu Changsheng nodded and agreed. The two then turned their attention back to the mysterious man.
The mysterious man felt a little angry when he saw that his hidden weapon was actually blocked by Lu Changsheng.
He glared at Lu Changsheng and the mysterious woman coldly, seeming to be thinking about something.
"Hmph, you are lucky," the mysterious man finally said, "But don't think you can escape my pursuit like this. I will definitely make you pay the price."
After speaking, the mysterious man turned around and disappeared into the darkness, leaving only a threatening word behind.
Lu Changsheng and the woman in black breathed a sigh of relief. They knew that they had temporarily escaped the pursuit of the mysterious man.
However, they also know that the mysterious man will definitely not stop there, and there will definitely be a more sinister conspiracy waiting for them next.
The two decided to find a safe place to heal their injuries first, and then make long-term plans to find Li Xiaoman's whereabouts.
In this place full of crises and conspiracies, they must always be vigilant.
In the wilderness, only the previous house could be considered a place to stay. Lu Changsheng and the woman in black returned.
"Are you OK?"
The woman in black couldn't help showing some concern when she saw Lu Changsheng's pale face.
"I'm fine, I'm just a little weak. I'll be fine if I take a rest." Lu Changsheng forced a smile. He felt the other party's concern for him, and a warmth surged in his heart.
The woman helped Lu Changsheng sit down on a chair, then took some silk scarves from her body and bandaged his wounds.
"Thank you." Lu Changsheng said gratefully.
The woman in black smiled slightly and said nothing.
She understood that the reason why Lu Changsheng came forward was not only to save her, but also to find Li Xiaoman.
They can be said to be in the same boat now and need to help each other get through this.
"Okay," the woman in black finally finished bandaging Lu Changsheng, "You can rest here during this period. I will first investigate the origin of that mysterious man."
Lu Changsheng nodded. He knew that the other party was going to look for clues, so he warned: "Be careful and tell me if you find anything."
The other party agreed, then turned and left the room.
Lu Changsheng looked at her leaving figure and silently prayed in his heart that she could find clues smoothly and find Li Xiaoman as soon as possible.
After the other party left, Lu Changsheng sat alone in the room, thinking about everything that had happened so far.
He never thought that his peaceful life would be suddenly broken. In fact, he could not care about Li Xiaoman's life or death, but he felt sorry in his heart.
After all, the relationship between the other party and him was unusual, and he would not be so heartless unless it was absolutely necessary.
Of course, if there is no other way, Lu Changsheng will still give up. For him, his own life is the most important.
"The mysterious man, the woman in black, both are mysterious."
"I would like to see where you are from?"
Seeing the woman in black leave completely, Lu Changsheng's face showed a smile, which was completely different from the pale expression just now.
It turned out that Lu Changsheng had been disguising, and the mysterious man was indeed powerful, but he would not hurt Lu Changsheng.
The other party's movements are just a bit weird. In fact, his strength is at the peak of the fifth level of Golden Core.
If Lu Changsheng really wanted to keep the other party, it would not be difficult. The main reason why he did this was to test the origin of the woman in black.
He had learned that Li Xiaoman had always been in the Demon Sect and did not have many relatives and friends. The sudden appearance of a woman naturally made Lu Changsheng wary.
He played a trick and was deliberately injured by the mysterious man in exchange for the other person's favor, so that he could test the other person's origins.
Lu Changsheng rested in the room for a while, and after recovering a little strength, he began to look for clues.
He hopes to find some information about the mysterious man or Li Xiaoman from this house so that he can better deal with the coming danger.
After a careful search, Lu Changsheng finally made a discovery.
He found a diary in the room with many strange symbols and words recorded on it.
He suspected that these records were related to the identity of the mysterious person, so he studied them carefully.
At this moment, the woman in black suddenly came back.
Her face was solemn, as if she had discovered some important information.
