The next day, noon.
Zhongli Jiangnan woke up from his sleep leisurely.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Su You taking a roasted chicken that was still sizzling and oily from the fire. When he saw her waking up, he walked over with the roasted chicken and handed it to her.
"Well, you haven't broken through to the Immortal Realm yet, so you still need to eat something after all."
Asking Zhongli Jiangnan to hold the roast chicken, Su You began to clean up the traces of the scene as he spoke, although now the only person in the secret realm who can really pose a threat to the two of them is Xu Tianwu.
Zhongli Jiangnan, who was really hungry from sleeping at night until noon, didn't care about his previous status, what kind of delicacies he ate, or the sizzling oil on the roasted chicken, so he just reached out and grabbed a big bite of the roasted chicken. He started eating in big mouthfuls, and asked hesitantly with his mouth full: "Did you stay up all night?"
"What else?" Su You glanced at Zhong Li Jiangnan who was enjoying his meal, and chuckled: "If we both fall asleep, once Xu Tianwu comes to the door, maybe the two of us will have to stay together. This place serves as fertilizer for these flowers, plants and trees.”
"Thank you, Su You." After eating the roast chicken in his hand at a fast pace, Zhongli Jiangnan put on a very serious expression and looked at Su You intently, "I really I want to thank you. If you hadn’t helped me before, I would have been tortured in an inhumane way because of the character of those people.”
Looking back now, Zhongli Jiangnan, who has been pampered by the people around him since he was a child and has never seen evil people, still feels scared. The scene of him being bullied by those five people keeps popping up in his mind.
When he looked at Su You in front of him again, he suddenly turned his face away in a hurry, and said to Su You with a slightly rosy side face: "There is still time before the second round of the trial is over. We have less than half a day, what do you think we should do next? Should we find other cultivators to seize as many wooden tokens as possible, or should we stay here and wait until the trial is over?"
Su You, who didn't care about Zhongli Jiangnan's reaction, fell into deep thought after hearing what the former said. After thinking for a while, he responded: "The safest decision for the two of us at the moment is undoubtedly to find someone who has no one." I have been waiting until the trial is over, but now I have a total of twelve wooden plaques on my body. But with Xu Tianwu's character and methods, it is very possible that he can grab all the remaining fourteen wooden plaques into his own hands. Yes, so I still have to find Xu Tianwu or other practitioners who have not had their wooden tokens taken away as soon as possible."
"Of course, you are safe now. You don't have to follow me and you probably won't encounter a similar situation again."
"Do you want to drive me away?" Upon hearing Su Youyou's words, Zhongli Jiangnan immediately turned into a cat with exploded fur. He turned around and puffed out his cheeks, pretending to be angry and said fiercely: " If I just want to follow you, can you still drive me away yourself? Huh!"
After snorting softly, without giving Su You a chance to speak, he immediately turned around and faced the helpless Su You with the back of his head.
"Since you want to follow, just follow." Su You helplessly raised his forehead and said, "But before I leave, I have to make it clear to you. Since you have chosen to go with me, no matter what you encounter along the way, You have to listen to me in everything, otherwise I won’t care about you.”
"I know, I know, why are you so long-winded like my father? Hurry up and leave!" Zhongli Jiangnan covered his ears, walked behind Su You and pushed Su You's back, urging him to set off on his way.
Su You was not ambiguous, and immediately raised his feet and walked in a certain direction ahead.
Neither of them had exact information about Xu Tianwu or his location, so they could only choose one direction and try their luck.
And at the same time.
Just half an hour before Su You left Jiangnan with Zhongli, Xu Tianwu, holding a compass in his hand and ten wooden plaques hanging on his waist, walked up the mountain, and his expression changed in the next second. There was a drastic change, and he looked forward with a cold expression.
It turned out that even if the night had passed, it was already noon of the next day.
The young man who had been penetrated by Su You's sword before and the other four people who were trapped by Zhongli Jiangnan's Xuantian Thunder Technique had not yet left and walked down the mountain. They stayed as if they knew that Xu Tianwu would eventually find them. On the mountain peak.
It's just that now their brothers don't look like they have succeeded, more like they have been beaten up and are unable to fight back.
Especially when Xu Tianwu's eyes focused on the young man whose Dantian was pierced by Su You's sword, he immediately shouted to him angrily: "You trash! When you contacted me, didn't you say you had caught that man?" Did you call Zhongli Jiangnan that stinky girl? Look at the trash you look like now? Why is your cultivation level at the third level of the Immaculate Realm fake, like a rag bag that deflates as soon as you prick it?"
"It's Su You!" Facing the angry questioning of his second young master, the young man who couldn't repair his broken Dantian even though he had taken the elixir could only endure the pain and knelt down, and then said in a deep voice: " Just when I was about to catch Zhongli Jiangnan, a guy named Su You suddenly appeared and rescued Zhongli Jiangnan. And when he confronted me, the guy named Su You was faster than me. He only used One sword... It only took one sword to kill me..."
The young man was too shy to speak, so he lowered his head and resigned himself to his fate, waiting for Xu Tianwu to make his move.
The other four people immediately knelt on the ground without saying a word.
Because they all know the temper of their second young master, who will kill him at the slightest discord, let alone something like today that makes him humiliated and angry.
The truth is exactly what they thought.
"You raise your head and explain the matter clearly to me."
After a few breaths, the sound of four heads falling to the ground was heard. The young man who had not been beheaded yet was asked by Xu Tianwu to raise his head and look at him.
How could the young man dare to defy Xu Tianwu? He could only raise his head obediently, and then, under Xu Tianwu's red-eyed gaze, he tremblingly told Xu everything that happened last night. Tianwu knows.
From when they met and fought with Zhongli Jiangnan, to when they completely suppressed Zhongli Jiangnan but unexpectedly encountered Su You, and when they wanted to catch Su You at the same time but were struck by Su You's move that penetrated his dantian, everything was explained without missing a word. Clearly.
"Uh-huh!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the young man saw the scene in front of him rise rapidly, and then felt dizzy.
It turned out that it was Xu Tianwu who cut off his head with his sword the moment he finished speaking.
"Tsk... I didn't expect that even the cultivators of the third level of the Immaculate Realm can't take advantage of you?" Looking at the blood on the ground and the five headless corpses created by his own hands, Xu Tianwu flew up with a kick in anger. He kicked the young man's head aside, then gritted his teeth and shouted to himself: "Su You, the trial is not over yet, today will definitely be your death!"
Hold the compass in your hand and pour spiritual power into it.
Soon, Xu Tianwu saw two light spots closely touching each other in the west not far away from him.
"Hehehehe..." He instantly realized that these two light spots must be Su You who had left here not long ago, and Xu Tianwu from Zhongli Jiangnan. Then he snapped his fingers into the void in front of him, "You two, use your fastest speed. Go and stop Su You and Zhong Li Jiangnan, and don't let them escape no matter what method you use, otherwise you should know what the consequences will be."
"yes!"
Two steady voices came out from the void, and then two blurry figures suddenly appeared in front of the empty space, chasing after Su You and Zhong Li Jiangnan at an extremely fast speed.
But Xu Tianwu, who was holding the compass and looking confident, walked slowly and leisurely towards the west.
By the time he walked down the mountain, he was getting closer and closer to the two light spots on the compass. It was obvious that the two men sent out not long ago had an effect and might have stopped Su You and Zhong Li Jiangnan.
"Hmph, Su You, Su You, do you really think that this young master only has that one trump card?"
Speeding up and rushing forward, Xu Tianwu snorted in his heart: "The Tiandu Ling Mansion is a part of my Tiandu Xu family, and you are just an outsider, so what if the little princess of the Zhongli Dynasty helps you? If I, Xu Tianwu, say it is your death day today, it must be your death day!"
"arrive!"
As he spoke, the light spots representing himself and the light spots representing Su You and Zhongli Jiangnan on the compass gradually overlapped.
As soon as the flowers and trees blocking the view were lifted up and the scene in front of him came into view, Xu Tianwu's face immediately showed an arrogant, bloodthirsty, and arrogant smile.
He had his hands behind his back, and the old god walked forward step by step, not forgetting to sneer and say: "I thought you, Su You, were very capable, but it seems like this."
"How about Su You, I think you should know very well what will happen next, right?"
Look around.
Just as Xu Tianwu thought, Su You and Zhong Li Jiangnan did not go far as shown on the compass, and their speed was very slow. The two men he sent out also successfully stopped the two.
But the unwavering expressions on the faces of Su You and Zhong Li Jiangnan made him a little annoyed.
Unable to wait for Su You's response, the anger that had finally calmed down suddenly surged up again, and he shouted angrily: "Su You! This young master is talking to you! Don't be ungrateful. ! Do you believe that this young master will let someone cut off your head and play it as a ball right now?"
"oh?"
Seeing that Xu Tianwu's whole face was flushed, Su You raised a slight smile on his lips and ignored the two men of Xu Tianwu who blocked him and Zhongli Jiangnan on both sides of his body.
He met Xu Tianwu's eyes and suddenly grinned: "You seem to have said you want to kill me many times, but you have never done it. However, I am willing to continue to give you opportunities. Now please start your performance." Come on, Second Young Master Xu Tianwu."
