The Fourth Financial Crisis

Compared with Yang Lu, who was prospering on the battlefield outside the territory, Li Qingning's situation was indeed not good.

At the same time that the Yufeng Sect monks were arrested, Li Qingning was located about 200 kilometers due north of the meeting point.

Here is also a forest covered by crimson twisted plants. Everywhere you can see is dead silence. Except for the slight rustle of Li Qingning's feet on the ground, there is almost no unnecessary sound.

Although there was no one around, Li Qingning's walking speed was very slow, almost moving forward step by step. She was not so much in a hurry as in a model catwalk.

However, Li Qingning looked a little embarrassed. Even her originally very conservative long dress had several large cuts, revealing her thighs. Not only that, she also had a nearly two-meter-long horse-cutting sword across her chest, with a look of vigilance on her face. If you looked closely, you could see that her horse-cutting sword was already covered with criss-crossing blood stains.

At this moment, Li Qingning still has a peerless grace, but her delicate face cannot hide the look of fatigue, and her whole temperament is not as radiant as usual.

In fact, Li Qingning had not rested for two days.

Along the way, she had repelled and killed at least seven or eight guys who intended to do evil to her, and among them there were even two tough opponents who clearly had the strength of disciples of the seven major sects.

After using the Zhanma Dao to kill several waves of enemies, Li Qingning finally got a brief respite. However, this rare respite could only be regarded as the calm before the storm at best.

Although the environment around her was very quiet, through the powerful consciousness brought by the quasi-heaven level technique, she could clearly detect that there were at least a dozen obscure spiritual energy fluctuations around her.

She didn't know how many people were staring at her with eager eyes, waiting for her to take the initiative to reveal her flaws!

Li Qingning still doesn't know how these guys found his whereabouts.

She originally wanted to get rid of these people through the super-powerful escape skills of the Wind Control Sect, but no matter how she hid, even with the help of the Hidden Spirit Pill to suppress the aura, she could not cut off the tracking of these enemies coming from all directions.

In fact, Li Qingning was able to persist until now entirely because these unscrupulous people were also afraid of each other.

Although these guys were ordered by their master to take Li Qingning's life, except for a few diehards who lost their fortunes and families during the third Lingshi Financial Crisis, and had a blood feud with Lu Yang and Li Qingyang, most of the cultivators still rushed to Taking advantage of the huge benefits promised by his master's elders, he wanted to steal Li Qingning's head.

Therefore, killing Li Qingning can achieve success in one step, but it cannot be done at the cost of his own life.

Especially when Li Qingning repelled the first few waves of enemies, he showed extremely terrifying fighting power. Three unlucky guys even lost their lives before they could even escape.

Faced with such a terrifying opponent, everyone wants to wait for others to take the lead first, and then become the fisherman who reaps the benefits.

Because of this, although Li Qingning has been targeted by many people at the same time, everyone has maintained a strange balance in the game.

Faced with this situation, Li Qingning did not dare to act rashly.

If she immediately uses the escape light to escape, this fragile balance may be broken on the spot. If everyone is provoked to attack her at the same time, even if she has nine lives, she will only end up dead.

Taking a deep breath, Li Qingning moved forward step by step.

Feeling the hidden gazes from all directions, she no longer expected to break out of the siege directly. Her only hope now was that Yang Lu could come to save her as promised. Although she didn't know exactly how Yang Lu planned to save her, the promise Yang Lu had made was her best hope for moving forward.

"call out--!"

At this moment, a sharp sound suddenly came from Li Qingning's ear.

Li Qingning was already very nervous, and he swung his sword at the source of the sound on the spot. With a clear cracking sound, a silver hidden weapon was directly shattered by the powerful destructive power of Xunfeng.

This is obviously someone who can't hold himself back and wants to launch a sneak attack!

However, before Li Qingning could take a breath, a second shot of the same hidden weapon came.

"call out--!"

Li Qingning used Xunfeng's style to block it again, but something unexpected happened. Just before Xunfeng and the hidden weapon were about to come into contact, the space in front of the hidden weapon suddenly became distorted, and the two passed by each other.

Xunfeng actually cut the air!

Li Qingning immediately realized that the two hidden weapons were probably not the same thing at all.

This second hidden weapon obviously had special powers such as illusions or space spells, which made her make a fatal error in judgment, leaving her body completely exposed to the hidden weapon.

If Li Qingning was in good condition, this embarrassing situation would be almost impossible to happen.

However, Li Qingning has gone through countless battles, big and small, and the mana in his body has been reduced to a very dangerous level. He must save every ounce of power he uses, and he does not dare to use AOE and other tricks. It was precisely because Li Qingning attempted to intercept the hidden weapon using a more spiritually efficient "point-to-point" method that he gave the sneak attacker an opportunity.

As Xunfeng and the hidden weapon passed by each other, the hidden weapon almost shot straight towards Li Qingning's shoulder blade.

The hidden weapon was extremely fast, and it would be too late to trigger any spells at this time. However, Li Qingning's reaction was also extremely fast. She immediately changed from holding the knife in both hands to holding the knife in one hand with her right hand, and then stretched out her left hand to grab the hidden weapon.

I saw Li Qingning's left hand glowing with green light, and she actually took the high-speed flying golden hidden weapon directly into her hand. With a slight shake of her white wrist, a crisp sound sounded, and the light of a zigzag-shaped hidden weapon dimmed, just like Fan Tie rolled down to her feet, and even its shape was slightly distorted.

After catching the enemy's hidden weapon with his bare hands, Li Qingning held a sword with one hand and looked coldly at the direction where the hidden weapon came from with a disdainful look, as if he was laughing at the cowardice and overestimation of the attacker's capabilities.

And the astonishing strength she displayed also made the unscrupulous gangsters lurking around and ready to act suspicious.

No one expected that after experiencing successive battles, Li Qingning's body-protecting Qi would still be so strong. Some of the guys who were originally prepared to jump out and hit the target began to re-evaluate Li Qingning's strength.

After waiting quietly for a moment and finding that no one else took the opportunity to attack, Li Qingning gently put down his left hand and continued to drag the sword towards the agreed place, as if nothing happened just now.

However, from an angle that outsiders couldn't see, her left hand trembled slightly and imperceptibly.

If you look closely, you can see thin streaks of blood oozing out from the palm of her left hand. However, whenever the blood is close to dripping, Li Qingning will quietly use his spiritual power to turn it into nothing.

Not as relaxed as she looked on the outside, after many rounds of battles, Li Qingning was actually at the end of her strength, and she had not practiced any magical body-protecting skills such as Gengjin Body Transformation Technique.

But she knows very well that she must not show any weakness now. If the unscrupulous people lurking nearby find out that she is a paper tiger, these people will definitely eat her to pieces!
