Wild Dogs

Yang Fan was conflicted after hearing Zhou Peng's suggestion.

This method is too dangerous. If anything goes wrong, he will be attacked from both sides by the Azure Dragon and the City Lord of Cangyun City.

Yang Fan thought for a moment and realized something was wrong; the city lord of Cangyun City was far more powerful than him.

If the two of us were to appear at the Azure Dragon Pool at the same time, the Azure Dragon would definitely target the stronger Cangyun City Mayor first.

Yang Fan clenched his fist.

That's right, let's do it this way.

As long as I can lure the City Lord of Cangyun City to Qingjiao Pool, I will still have a chance to survive.

Having made up his mind, Yang Fan immediately set off and flew towards the Azure Dragon Pool.

He wasn't sure yet whether the city lord of Cangyun City would come after him.

But if the other party really catches up, he must make all the necessary preparations to avoid losing his life.

Yang Fan flew for several hours, carefully avoiding the patrolling cultivators along the way.

More and more cultivators from Cangyun City gathered from all directions.

These cultivators were patrolling around the mountain range when they received the news from the exploding crystal ball and immediately set off to stop Yang Fan.

Yang Fan ran very fast, leaving his pursuers behind time and time again.

In addition, Yang Fan had been missing for several years, and Cangyun City had long since relaxed its defenses, sending out patrols mostly ordinary cultivators with little skill.

Yang Fan traveled along the way without encountering any major dangers.

When Yang Fan was only a few dozen miles away from Qingjiao Pool, his expression suddenly changed.

A particularly powerful aura of a cultivator is rapidly approaching from a distance.

Oh no, they've caught up.

Yang Fan dared not linger for even a moment, grabbed several spirit stones, and ran towards the Azure Dragon Pool with all his might.

While traveling, Yang Fan kept a close watch on his surroundings, not daring to relax for even a moment.

Before long, Yang Fan sensed that the powerful aura behind him was getting closer and closer.

Can't delay any longer.

In desperation, Yang Fan bit his fingertip and pressed it on several important acupoints on his body.

He relied on the depletion of his own vital essence to increase his speed and charged forward.

Yang Fan had not specifically learned the method of burning essence blood, but in the current emergency, forcibly consuming essence blood could indeed make him run faster in a short time.

Relying on the speed gained from expending his vital essence, Yang Fan kept rushing forward.

A powerful voice came from behind in the distance.

"You little thief, don't even think about running away."

Yang Fan quickly turned his head to look behind him.

This was the first time he had ever seen the appearance of the Lord of Cangyun City.

An old man with completely white hair and beard flew in mid-air, dressed in black, exuding a strong murderous aura.

The old man had already made up his mind to kill Yang Fan.

The two had been separated for several years, and although the old man's anger had subsided somewhat, now that his enemy was in front of him, all the hatred in his heart had returned.

He was determined to capture Yang Fan, skin him alive, and kill him with his own hands to vent his anger.

The old man flew forward with all his might, relentlessly chasing after Yang Fan.

Yang Fan was now using the burning of his essence blood to increase his speed, and the spirit boots he was wearing also allowed him to run even faster.

Even so, the old man still caught up with him.

no way.

The old man was a Core Formation cultivator, and his speed was much faster than Yang Fan's.

Even though Yang Fan had tried his best, he couldn't shake off the old man.

In desperation, Yang Fan rushed directly into the mountain range.

He hid himself in the woods and the terrain, buying himself more time to escape.

This place is not far from Qingjiaotan.

If Yang Fan can lure the old man into the Azure Dragon Pool, he will have a chance to escape.

"Master, we are not far from the Azure Dragon Pool now. Please hold on for a little while longer."

Zhou Peng stood aside and spoke anxiously.

Yang Fan nodded heavily.

To be honest, he was very glad that he fled towards Qingjiaotan in the critical moment, instead of continuing to fly into the open wilderness.

If he were still in that open space, he would have been caught by the old man long ago.

With that in mind, Yang Fan sped up and rushed toward the Azure Dragon Pool.

"Where are you going, you little thief?"

The old man behind them was now in a bloodthirsty rage.

Seeing Yang Fan using the mountain's terrain to run around, the old man could no longer contain his anger.

He raised his hand from mid-air and pressed down, drawing all the spiritual energy of heaven and earth from the surroundings.

The spiritual energy condensed into a large palm print, which slammed straight towards Yang Fan.

Yang Fan clenched his fists.

He turned around and threw out dozens of talismans.

The talismans exploded one after another in mid-air, temporarily blocking the downward-pressing spiritual energy palm print.

Taking advantage of this brief gap, Yang Fan rushed forward for a short distance.

Before long, he passed through a dense forest ahead, and a clear pool of water appeared before him.

Although this place is called a pool, it looks no different from a large lake.

Yang Fan was quite surprised that there was such a large body of water deep in this mountain range.

Upon seeing the Azure Dragon Pool, Yang Fan breathed a slight sigh of relief.

As long as he gets close to this pool, he has a chance to survive.

The old man behind him followed closely as he rushed down from the sky.

The old man had his eyes fixed on Yang Fan, determined to kill him in one fell swoop.

Yang Fan knew he couldn't just wait idly by.

He raised his hand and forcefully threw a talisman onto the water.

The talisman exploded on the water's surface with a loud "boom," sending water splashing everywhere.

Yang Fan stopped thinking and plunged into the pool.

"Glug glug," a string of bubbles kept rising to the surface around Yang Fan.

After diving into the water, Yang Fan immediately looked down to see what was happening underwater.

The water in this pool was very clear, and Yang Fan could see the underwater scenery and the surrounding area.

But after looking at it carefully, Yang Fan was a little surprised.

The entire pool was so deep that the bottom could not be seen with the naked eye.

Yang Fan was undecided for a moment.

If he continued to dive deeper into the pool, the azure dragon underwater might immediately rush out and attack him.

But if it stays at the current water depth, it will be easily seen by the old man in the sky.

In his desperation, Yang Fan couldn't think of a suitable solution.

Upon seeing this, Zhou Peng suddenly spoke.

"Why does Master need to dive down? Since the Azure Dragon hasn't emerged from the water yet, why not just use a talisman to summon it?"

After hearing this, Yang Fan immediately came up with a solution.

He sent a few streams of spiritual energy into the talisman and quickly threw it towards the bottom of the pool.

A strong gust of wind carried the talisman swiftly towards the bottom of the pool.

Yang Fan planned to use this method to force the underwater azure dragon to surface.

As soon as the Azure Dragon appears, its attention will definitely be drawn to the old man in the sky.

The strongest forces in this area are the old man and the Azure Dragon.

Once the two sides meet, they will definitely start fighting immediately.

With Yang Fan caught in the middle, he naturally wouldn't become the primary target of both sides.

Before long, the talisman that Yang Fan threw out was about to hit the bottom of the pool.

The old man had already landed above the pool.

Seeing Yang Fan hiding underwater, the old man became furious.

He raised his hand and grabbed at the air, and the surrounding spiritual energy quickly gathered around him.
