Master Gu, How Can I Live Without You?

"Finally here!"

Lin Yun was secretly delighted when he heard the news.

Getting rid of Xie Qian sooner would allow the Lin Clan to develop in peace, and he could also leave with peace of mind.

"Bao Zhen, let's go."

Without a second thought, Lin Yun pulled Qing Tan and jumped onto Bao Zhen's back.

Roar! Roar! Roar! The Three Little Tigers excitedly followed.

There was only one necessary path back from Flame City.

Lin Yun only needed to get ahead and intercept them.

Not long after, Lin Yun, with the four beasts, arrived at a hill beside the main road. He had Qing Tan and the Three Little Tigers stay on the hill.

He and Bao Zhen entered the woods by the roadside, chose a good spot, and sat down to wait.

Half an hour later.

Two fast horses galloped over.

One of them was Xie Qian, and the other was also a middle-aged man, wearing a gray-yellow robe.

Lin Yun's mental energy extended out, and he could clearly feel the faint fluctuations of mental energy on this person.

"He should be the vice sect master of the Bloodcloth Sect, Gu Ying!"

Lin Yun immediately determined the other party's identity.

In the original work, Lei Bao, in order to deal with the Lin Clan, invited the vice sect master of the Bloodcloth Sect, Gu Ying.

Gu Ying's strength was very strong, a Two Seal Symbol Master, comparable to the Core Formation Realm.

However, Lin Yun had expected it to be him long ago and was not surprised. He was completely confident in dealing with Gu Ying.

"Be careful, someone is using mental energy to probe us."

Gu Ying suddenly slowed down, his mental energy probing outwards, searching for Lin Yun.

"A Symbol Master?"

Xie Qian was shocked and looked around.

"Whoosh!"

At this moment, a small black-green sword pierced the air and shot towards the two of them.

Lin Yun had made his move.

Task: Kill Xie Qian. Reward: One bottle of Five-Grade Gathering Yuan Pills.

Task: Kill Gu Ying. Reward: One bottle of Five-Grade Gathering Spirit Pills.

"Buzz!"

The Mystic Dark Sword hovered in front of Xie Qian's face. A force blocked the sword's momentum, and fine cold sweat instantly broke out on Xie Qian's forehead.

"Such strong mental energy, the other party is probably a Two Seal Symbol Master."

Gu Ying immediately made a judgment.

"I didn't expect a small Qingyang Town to have a Symbol Master."

He immediately used his mental energy to amplify his voice, "May I ask which master it is? Please show yourself. Hiding your head and tail is unbecoming of a Symbol Master."

Unbecoming of a Symbol Master... Lin Yun, hiding in the woods, curled his lip. Wouldn't it be more impressive to deal with you without showing himself! Lin Yun felt he could give it a try. His mental energy was not weak, and his mental energy control had reached perfection.

"Whoosh!"

The Mystic Dark Sword suddenly rotated flexibly, constantly circling and flying around Gu Ying and the other person, looking for an opportunity to attack.

"Be careful, stay behind me. The other party's killing intent is very strong, clearly intending to fight us to the death."

Gu Ying quickly dismounted from his horse and shielded Xie Qian behind him.

"Master Gu, can you find the other party's location?"

Xie Qian asked in a low voice.

"I can't find it. The other party's mental energy control is very good, I can't detect his location at all."

"However, don't worry, my mental energy is not weaker than his. Hmph, his remote control consumes more energy. Let's see how long he can last."

A cold smile appeared at the corner of Gu Ying's mouth. His mental energy quickly gathered, slowly condensing into a phantom long needle only as thick as a finger.

"Mental energy materialization!"

Lin Yun was slightly surprised. This technique made his heart stir.

"If you don't come out now, don't blame me for being impolite."

Gu Ying coldly shouted, "Transformation God Needle."

The phantom long needle condensed from mental energy flew out flexibly and collided with Lin Yun's Mystic Dark Sword.

The needle and sword chased each other in the air, making clinking sounds.

Xie Qian watched from the side, dazzled and trembling.

The target of the Mystic Dark Sword seemed to be him, nearly taking his life several times. Fortunately, Gu Ying's mental energy blocked it.

As time passed minute by minute, the two engaged in a mental energy battle. The Transformation God Needle and the Mystic Dark Sword clanged in the air, and waves of aftershocks spread out.

"How can it last so long..." Gu Ying's face grew increasingly grim. Sweat appeared on his forehead, and his breathing became ragged. He had to split some of his power to protect Xie Qian and maintain the form of the Transformation God Needle for combat, causing his mental energy to deplete rapidly. At this rate, he wouldn't last much longer.

He had thought the Transformation God Needle could quickly damage the sword, but unexpectedly, the opponent's mental energy control was far superior to his. The sword was incredibly agile and always managed to evade his attacks.

More importantly, the opponent's offensive had not weakened at all, as if their mental energy hadn't been consumed.

"Impossible, could it be a Three Seal Symbol Master?"

Gu Ying frowned. If it wasn't a Three Seal Symbol Master, it would be difficult to maintain remote control for so long. But if it was, killing a Two Seal Symbol Master wouldn't require such consumption.

It seemed a bit excessive!

On the other side, in the forest, Lin Yun sat on Bao Zhen, his eyes closed, concentrating on controlling the Mystic Dark Sword. With a Soul Nourishing Pill in his left hand and a Returning Spring Pill in his right, he popped them into his mouth like beans, one every now and then.

Lin Yun did this to be on the safe side.

After all, Gu Ying was a Two Seal Symbol Master, one realm higher than him.

Although he basically couldn't kill him, he might get injured.

Getting injured hurt a lot! If he could take down the opponent while sitting, why stand?

"Hehehehe... Can't hold on anymore!"

Feeling the power of the opponent's Transformation God Needle weaken, Lin Yun couldn't help but let out a wild laugh in his heart.

"Whoosh!"

The Mystic Dark Sword continued to erupt, darting back and forth, attacking Gu Ying one moment and Xie Qian the next.

Gu Ying's face grew increasingly ugly, and he already had the intention to retreat.

"You'll have to fend for yourself."

Gu Ying decisively dropped a sentence, then ignored Xie Qian and quickly retreated, running towards Flame City. As for the horses they had been riding, they had died tragically in the battle between the needle and the sword just now.

"Ah, this..."

Xie Qian was completely bewildered, helpless, and terrified! "Master Gu, you can't leave me behind."

"Master Gu! Master Gu!"

"How can I live without you?"

Xie Qian was anxious, tears streaming down his smiling tiger face. He quickly chased after Gu Ying, shouting heartbreakingly as he ran.

"Don't follow me..."

Gu Ying roared loudly.

He knew he was no match for the Mystic Dark Sword, so he planned to abandon Xie Qian to take the blow and buy himself time.

"Whoosh!"

The Mystic Dark Sword shot out from behind Xie Qian, bringing out a spray of blood. Xie Qian's body remained in the posture of reaching out and calling for Master Gu, but his eyes gradually lost their color. With a thud, he fell straight down.

Seeing this, Gu Ying took the opportunity to step on the Transformation God Needle and fly at a low altitude, wanting to quickly escape this troublesome place.

"Thinking of running now? Too late!"

Lin Yun's mouth curled in disdain. He squeezed the Bao Zhen beneath him with his legs.

"A'Zhen, chase him!"

Bao Zhen exerted force, turning into a black shadow and chasing after him.

The Mystic Dark Sword followed like a shadow.

Following closely behind, Gu Ying panicked.

He couldn't understand how the opponent could chase him while controlling a flying sword.

With such a powerful method, why resort to a sneak attack?
