Chapter 2671: Pursuit
His subordinates, whom he brought with him, have all been killed by Chen Ping now, not a single one left. He will never let Chen Ping off!
Feeling the terrifying aura emanating from Che Yan, Chen Ping tightly gripped his Zhan Long Sword, his brows furrowed and his face etched with worry!
Just now, his sword strike nearly drained him of all his strength. At this point, fighting against Zheyan, Chen Ping would likely not be able to last even a few moves!
Just then, two figures suddenly appeared from afar!
“Zhe Yan, you demon cultivator, I never expected you to still be alive…”
From far away, we could hear the Third Elder’s voice!
When Zhuoyan saw the arrival of the Third Elder and Liu Ruoyan, his entire face turned incredibly grim!
“Third Elder, do you know this person?”
Chen Ping asked in great surprise!
He didn’t understand how the Third Elder could know this demon cultivator!
“Of course I know him, back then when we were hunting down his group of demon cultivators, our Jade Summit Sect was involved too.”
“At the beginning, everyone said that this guy had been killed. Now I don’t know how he is still alive!”
Elder Three said!
After listening to the Third Elder’s words, Chen Ping pondered for a moment and said, “Third Elder, who said that Zheyan had already died back then?”
“The Second Senior Brother said, he claimed that he personally killed Zheyan.”
Elder Three replied!
At that moment, Chen Ping suddenly understood. He finally knew why Zhe Yan had come to kill him. After all, he had no grievances with Zhe Yan and had never even met him. Now that Zhe Yan wanted his life, it must have been someone’s orders!
Chen Ping’s time in the Heavenly Human Realm was short, and he didn’t have many enemies or people who wanted his life!
The only one who wanted to kill himself was the Second Elder!
It seems the second elder lied. He didn’t kill this demon cultivator, but hid and kept him captive. Now, seeking revenge, he has released him to kill me.
“No wonder I don’t know this guy, he went straight for the kill when we met!”
Chen Ping said calmly.
The Third Elder, upon hearing this, immediately looked at him and said: “Zhe Yan, was it my senior brother who saved you, and now he has sent you to kill Mr. Chen?”
“Humph, do you think I would tell you?”
Zheyan let out a cold snort, then with a wave of his hand, a surge of blazing fire erupted into the sky!
Chen Ping and Elder San quickly retreated, while Zhe Yan seized the opportunity to turn and run!
Zheyan knew that with his own strength, he had absolutely no chance of winning against Chen Ping and the other two!
“We can’t let him get away…”
Chen Ping finished speaking and drew his sword to chase after him!
Elder Three and Liu Ruyan, seeing this, also hurriedly followed after!
As long as we capture Zhēyàn, Elder Two will have the charges of hiding demonic cultivators brought against him. Then, we won’t need Chen Ping to take action. The Jade Tripod Sect’s rules will ensure that Elder Two is unable to live!
After all, in this world of Heavenly Humans where demons are ostracized and hunted down, to secretly harbor a demon cultivator and cooperate with them is the most disgraceful act imaginable!
However, Chen Ping and the third elder were not slow either, also flying on the wind, chasing after them!
But this put Liu Ruyue at a disadvantage, as her strength was still a notch below. This resulted in a much slower speed!
Soon, Liu Ruyue left it far behind!
Liu Ruoyan was feeling anxious at this moment. If Chen Ping and the others ran far away, leaving her alone, Liu Ruoyan would be truly afraid of encountering other people. If she were to run into other disciples from Yuding Sect and they recognized her, then Liu Ruoyan would be in big trouble. Hu Yixiao would definitely not let her off!
Just as Liu Ruoyan was gritting her teeth and chasing after him desperately, Chen Ping turned back to Liu Ruoyan’s side and immediately grabbed her hand!
Chen Ping seemed to have also thought of the danger of Liu Ruyue running alone, so he turned back!
“Hold on tight, I’ve got you…”
After finishing his words, Chen Ping activated the Swift Wind Technique, his feet swiftly skimming across the grass!
