The next instant, Mu Qinglan felt a child around her neck, as though there was a cold snake slithering across it.
An extremely dangerous aura immediately engulfed her and trapped her inside.
Although Mu Qinglan had spoken in a nonchalant way, she had cleanly wiped away the aura that emanated from her body at this moment.
She had already felt that Yun Yi and the other guy were extremely strong just now, and it was absolutely impossible for her to deal with them in her current state. With just a simple thought, she might even be crushed easily by any one of them.
At this moment, Mu Qinglan was afraid that any fluctuation of Yuan Energy would turn their attention towards and instantly strike her down!
The other person was clearly here for Yun Yi, Mu Qinglan had no intentions of getting involved in this!
“Heh, so, it’s a man.”
In just the blink of an eye, that person was already holding Mu Qinglan hostage. His extraordinarily long and even somewhat pale hand gripped Mu Qinglan’s next as she spat out those cold words. A hint of forbidding laughter could be heard underneath his words, and anyone who was listening to him speak wouldn’t help but feel a chill in their heart.
Then, that person seemed to study Mu Qinglan a little closer, and then he snickered.
“But, with an appearance like this, you’re really more attractive than most women…”
Also he had said these words with no particular intention, those who heard the words would interpret it in their own manner.
Mu Qinglan’s face sank immediately. Yun Yi’s eyes flashed slightly from where he was standing in front of her, and he couldn’t help but look closer at her face.
At this time, the sun was in the right position so that the dense trees of the forest were overcast, and the light and shadows were intertwined. The boy who was held hostage was thin, and although his complexion was a little pale, his face looked as smooth and flawless as jade. There was even a slight luminous shine to it, and it looked as though his face would break apart just by applying a little force.
What more, his face was as pretty as a picture, which was clear and handsome.
Between the lines of his eyebrows, there was actually a trace of extreme confusion that was obvious.
It was no wonder Mo Yingtian had mistaken him for a woman.
The thought only flashed through Yun Yi’s mind for a moment before it was interrupted by a voice ringing out in front of him.
“I say, it doesn’t matter if you’ve got the wrong guy, and I don’t care who you want to kill. But, please, I don’t even know this person at all. If you want to use me as a bargaining chip, I’m afraid it will be useless.”
The moment Mu Qinglan opened her mouth, it was the clarify that there was nothing between Yun Yi and her.
Yun Yi’s eyes darkened.
“Oh?”
The person standing behind Mu Qinglan hummed, as though he was slightly interested in what she had said.
“I heard it clearly just now, that Yun Yi actually wanted to have a Level 5 Star Formation Master help you. Don’t you know that he’s known as a ruthless killer, who doesn’t even blink when he kills someone? If there was nothing between the two of you, why would he help you, hm?”
Mu Qinglan laughed awkwardly.
“How do you know he isn’t trying to help me recover my meridians, then cripple me again just for the sake of torturing me?”
Yun Yi was now starting to think that he must have had a moment of madness before this, otherwise, why would he have thought of helping someone like this?!
“Mo Yingtian, you’ve been lurking about in the shadows for so long all in order to kill me. Now that you’re in front of me, why are you afraid to make a move?” Yun Yi said coldly.
Mu Qinglan finally felt the person standing behind her move away slightly, but the grip on her neck remained.
“Heh, who says I don’t dare to make a move?”
His voice was slightly hoarse, and there was still the hint of a foreboding smile in his words. Then, the hand that held Mu Qinglan’s neck moved slowly from her neck to her shoulder.
Mu Qinglan tensed up, fully alert!
“But, since this person has nothing to do with you, then… there’s no need to keep him alive either.”
When Mo Yingtian said those words, it chilled her to the bone!
Mu Qinglan’s heart thumped once, then with swift movements, the dagger in her hand shot out!
She moved extremely fast. Coupled with the lack of Yuan Energy fluctuations when she moved, and the fact that Mo Yingtian’s attention was mostly on Yun Yi, Mo Yingtian didn’t notice her actions at first!
Ding!
Mo Yingtian’s Yuan Energy formed a green and black sword, appearing directly in front of his chest in an instant!
Crack!
The dagger in Mu Qinglan’s hand was shattered by the violent impact!
The next instant, the green and black sword was already flying towards Mu Qinglan with the intention to loop her head off!
Mu Qinglan was not a person who was overzealous in fighting, and she threw out something from her long sleeves immediately. A cloud of white mist exploded in an instant, and it obscured Mo Yingtian’s sight right away. Even so, Mu Qinglan did not look back and dashed straight in Yun Yi’s direction.
“Why aren’t you making a move yet?” she shouted out in a clear voice, appearing in front of Yun Yi by the time she finished speaking.
Swish!
The sword moved extremely fast, and even with Mu Qinglan grabbing a head start, it was impossible for her to fight against such a person in her state, so she had fled the moment she got in a hit.
She hadn’t planned to take down the enemy with that one hit, but just to escape!
Screech!
The swift and fierce Swordlight tore through the air, and Mu Qinglan could practically feel the great pressure in the air from it. And then, a sharp pain burned on her back! She had been cut by the Swordlight!
Mo Yu glanced around their surroundings in high alert, and turned his head to look at Yun Yi when he heard the sounds.
It seemed that his master really didn’t intend to make any move at all… This was also a normal situation. For Yun Yi not to kill anyone was already a blessing, let alone saving someone?
However, even so, then there was nothing left but for Mu Linghan to die under Mo Yingtian’s blade…
“Yun Yi!”
Feeling the terrifying Swordlight approaching once more, Mu Qinglan screamed out in a clear voice once again. She raised her head, and her eyes immediately met with Yun Yi’s ink-like eyes.
The depths of his eyes were as deep as the sea, and it looked enigmatic and impossible to read.
Clang!
Just as Mu Qinglan thought that Yun Yi wouldn’t make a move and that she would die under Mo Yingtian’s blade, a silver, white streak suddenly cut through the sky! It sped through the air quickly, ruthlessly clashing with the green and black sword!
Mu Qinglan finally felt relieved, then turned her body suddenly so that her slender waist was almost parallel to the ground so that she could avoid the fierce energy clash in front of her!
Then, a silver streak of Yuan Energy scattered around her and formed a barrier, covering Mu Qinglan.
Mu Qinglan moved fast and in the next instant, she was already next to Yun Yi.
“Ugh!”
Having finally escaped from danger, Mu Qinglan relaxed slightly. Then, she staggered in her steps and spat out a mouthful of blood.
The bloodstains at the corner of her mouth added a little touch of terrifying beauty to her already pale face.
“Your Yuan Energy is ruined, but you’re still as cunning as ever,” Yun Yi said.
Regardless of how calm he looked at her, the words he said were filled with criticism.
“You brat…”
Mu Qinglan tried to calm her erratic breathing, then reached up to wipe away the blood at the corner of her lips before raising her head to look at Yun Yi with what seemed like fire in her eyes.
Before she could finish her sentence, a gust of wind blew past, and Yun Yi’s figure disappeared from sight!
Bang!
A violent energy shock burst out suddenly!
It was Yun Yi and Mo Yingtian who had met head-on!
The two of them were extremely powerful, and with just a single blow, the mighty force swept across the area, and the trees around them fell one after another!
Bam!
The green and black Yuan Energy clashed with silver Yuan Energy, and an ear-splitting roar erupted!
Mu Qinglan turned her head to look, but it was all a blur to her. She could faintly see the figure of Mo Yingtian, who looked to be only about twenty years old.
He wore a blood-red brocade robe, and even with just a glance, it was possible to feel the dense fury that emanated from him!
“It seems that Yun Yi had quite a few deadly enemies…”
She coughed a few times and did her best to suppress the disorderly energy in her body as she muttered slowly to herself.
Mo Yu was still standing at the side, but he was clearly in shock.
His master had actually made a move!
That Mu Linghan had just screamed at his master, and then his master had actually…
Now was clearly not yet the time to fight!
Rumble!
A loud rumbling sound suddenly came from a distance!
Mu Qinglan turned abruptly to look in the direction, only to find that the sound had come from deep within the Nine Foot Mountain Range!

Such a commotion…
When Yun Yi heard the sound, he lashed out and delivered a fierce blow, forcing Mo Yingtian back a few steps before he raised his eyes to also look in the direction where the noise had come from.
Roar!
An almighty roar suddenly rang out!
Mu Qinglan was startled, and suddenly heard Xue You’s surprised voice, “A high-level primordial beast has actually been born!”
