About a hundred thousand miles from the central state on the outskirts of a small city, Jiang Xiaobai and his three companions were frantically fleeing.
Behind them followed countless powerful individuals.
Needless to say, they were damn well surrounded again. Luckily, there were not many powerful people on this border side, so it was impossible to corner Jiang Xiaobai entirely.
But catching up, that they could do.
Close to three hundred people were behind them, including more than ten powerful people in the Unity Period, among which one had even been transported here through a teleportation array.
Throughout the pursuit, countless attacks from the back came their way which left Jiang Xiaobai and his men tired and injured.
Amongst them all, Mo Yu had it the worst. She had been deliberately lagging behind the group, rushing up to block attacks intended for Jiang Xiaobai whenever possible.
This made Jiang Xiaobai rather helpless, but fortunately, Mo Yu had not come to any real harm as of yet.
The situation was dire, and Jiang Xiaobai couldn’t worry about anything else now. They only had a hundred thousand miles left to cover, and based on their current status, they should reach their destination by tomorrow night as long as nothing unexpected happened!
As long as they manage to hold up until then, they would survive!
He certainly didn’t dare to fight recklessly now. The pills that heal and restore his power were all consumed. If it wasn’t for the abundance of such pills in Jiang Xiaobai’s possession, the injuries alone could have killed them.
Left without any pills or food, their only option left was to rely on spiritual stones to restore their powers.
However, escaping consumed a huge amount of power, especially over the past few days. Their consumption had been so horrifying that it began to exceed even their supply of spiritual stones.
“Damn it, do I really have to use those fairy stones?”
Jiang Xiaobai still had four fairy stones with him that he obtained either through sheer luck or as rewards for completing system tasks.
The properties of these stones were far more superior to that of spiritual energy. Although they couldn’t compare to immortality energy, these stones were still extremely valuable.
After all, he had obtained billions of spiritual stones, but fairy stones, he only had a few of them!
Jiang Xiaobai was reluctant to use them since he had obtained them until today. Such precious things, once used, would decrease in number.
He knew very well that if he used a fairy stone, his spiritual powers would reach their peak in an extremely short period. But still, he was reluctant to part with them.
Unless it was a last resort, he would not use them recklessly.
Those were his trump cards. Trump cards were really meant to be saved until your opponent thought you were fully exhausted and had no way to go. That’s when you’d use them to make a killing move.
Just like in the game of “Fight the Landlord,” you would have to play your big cards and bombs at critical moments. Otherwise, if you ran out of trump cards early, you would either be waiting to die or just be sitting ducks.
“Jiang Xiaobai, stop running, damn it, you have no chance of escaping the Northern State!”
“Damn you, stop right there. I have been chasing you for three days and nights, aren’t you tired? Aren’t I tired?”
Roars of anger kept echoing from behind, as the distance between them was narrowing down.
At this point, Jiang Xiaobai and his companions accelerated again, widening the gap.
“You old tortoise, knowing that you’re tired, can’t you stop chasing us?”
Jiang Xiaobai also roared: “You’re like a dog chasing me, what’s in it for you? Whatever the ancient race can give you, I can too!”
“Alright, ten billion spirit stones. If you give me that, I’ll go.”
“Get lost, you stupid, thinking I’m as stupid as you are. If I give you that and you walk away, I swear to eat shit standing up!”
Jiang Xiaobai roared repeatedly.
Behind them, the pursuers’ mouths were twitching violently.
Throughout the chase, what they did the most was engage in a war of words with Jiang Xiaobai. But frustratingly, even with hundreds of people bad-mouthing Jiang Xiaobai together, they were somehow left unable to retort by his banter alone.
Jiang Xiaobai’s ability to trash-talk was truly terrifying!
This was perhaps the only enjoyment in this desperate escape. But Jiang Xiaobai would not let his guard down because of it.
He knew very well that if this continued, he would end up cornered. He certainly did not want to die just a little short of the finish line.
Moreover, the number of people chasing him from behind kept increasing, and many people were also appearing ahead to stop him.
If this happened before, they would kill those who blocked their path. But now, they could only take detours. Any further reckless use of powers would result in a tragic death.
“Jiang Xiaobai, damn it, think of something!”
Ao Cheng howled.
“Damn, I wish I had a plan too, but I don’t!”
“You definitely have it, believe in yourself, you’re capable.”
“Damn it, Ao Cheng, you’re ruining everything. If you can’t think of anything, why make me do it? It’s just a short distance, you can completely have the experts from Dragon Valley come over!”
“The experts from Dragon Valley don’t know our location, would you have them come here to seek death? If it really turns into a full-blown battle between two forces, Jiang Xiaobai, your sins would be great.”
Just as they were lost in this war of words while desperately escaping, a messaging token appeared from Jiang Xiaobai’s sudden thought.
“Boss, where are you!?”
It was a message from AnRan!
“I’m close to the central state. Don’t do anything rash. The An Family can’t be exposed yet,” Jiang Xiaobai sent back.
Shortly after, another message from AnRan came: “Boss, I didn’t want to keep you in the dark. I’ve brought people over. You can count on me this time. I’ll definitely be of help. Share your location with me!”
Jiang Xiaobai was dumbfounded. He didn’t know what AnRan was up to. Knowing that the people chasing them were at least in the god-dividing stage, and there were also experts in the fusion stage,
And what’s more, all of them were the ancient race’s experts. What kind of help could AnRan possibly bring?
“Share your location. If you don’t, I’m going to break our ties!”
Another message came from AnRan.
Considering the current situation, Jiang Xiaobai really had no other options. So he replied: “We just passed a small city called ‘Luan Feng City’ and we’re heading towards you in a straight line!”
“Bring all your pills. We don’t have much spirit force left.”
Not long after, another message came from AnRan: “Boss, it’s actually called…’Luan Feng City.’”
Jiang Xiaobai was so angry, that for a moment, he wanted to squeeze the communication token to smithereens. That damn guy, daring to be reckless even at a critical moment like this!
I can’t take it anymore. I must smack him first when I see him.
What Jiang Xiaobai didn’t expect was that the reinforcements AnRan brought came so fast!
About an hour after the communication, when the four of them were about to be outpaced and overtaken, a group of people suddenly appeared in front of them.

They were dressed in all sorts of clothes, but all of them were exceptionally powerful; the weakest was in the mid-god-dividing stage, and there were even twenty or thirty experts in the fusion stage!
Leading them was a fat man in a golden combat robe, wielding a double-edged red flowered staff.
“Boss, I’ve come to save you!”
“Everyone, charge! Hit these ancient race people as hard as you can!”
