Chapter 169, Chapter 170: A New Look!

  Receiving Miao Chen's order, Park Yat and Shan Nan naturally did not dare to slack off, closely following Miao Chen's back to pursue, only this time they didn't dare to be as reckless as before.

  Instinctively, he always kept a certain distance from Xiao Hong, afraid that Xiao Hong would make another move like just now.

  However, just as Xiao Hong was getting closer and closer to the northwest direction, he suddenly noticed that there were more suspicious people on the streets around him. The most obvious place was that they all had eye-catching magic seals at their waistbands. It's worth noting that ordinary people are not allowed to carry magic seals.

  What's going on?

  Xiao Hong had some doubts in his heart, but looking back at Miao Chen and others who were chasing after him with extreme ferocity, Xiao Hong could only cast aside these doubts for the time being and focus on taking care of himself first.

  At the same time, under Jiao Qi Shan's command, nearly two-thirds of Mei Long's men had been mobilized and were searching for any unusual activity in every nook and cranny. Although they didn't know what Xiao Hong looked like, Jiao Qi Shan had previously informed them of Xiao Hong's basic characteristics: a black leather jacket, blue jeans, and oversized sunglasses.

  The focus of the search was in the northwest region of Taiwu City, and within a short span of just a few dozen minutes, every street and alley in the northwest region had several people from the Mellon Security Agency stationed there, their actions were quite swift.

  Such treatment is basically only available to core members of the Cologne Group.

  At the same time, in Muxi'er's small villa, Muxi'er, who was holding a ball, had already become slightly red-eyed, and the weak side of the woman was fully revealed. Outside her door, two third-level Jiaoren were constantly patrolling around to ensure Muxi'er's personal safety, their faces extremely stern.

  "You said, are we too weak?" Murong Xi'er gently wiped the corner of her eye with the back of her hand and said to Qiuqiu.

  The ball-like creature tugged at its ears, not speaking a word. As a spiritual beast of a mutated kind with high intelligence, it naturally sensed that Xiao Hong was in extreme danger and couldn't do anything about it.

  "If we could be a bit stronger, we would be able to help him. Even if it's just a little, we can do something about it. Now it seems like we're just a burden." Muxi'er said with some self-blame, now she truly felt that she was just an ornament.

  Muxi'er had never felt so helpless before, she could only sit quietly here, waiting for news, unable to do anything, with only anxiety and worry.

  On the other hand, Miao Chen was still chasing Xiao Hong tightly and occasionally launching a fatal blow at him. However, Xiao Hong's spiritual snake had an extremely high agility, and every time it only narrowly escaped, allowing Xiao Hong to dodge safely.

  Helpless, Miao Chen could no longer take care of many things and could only contact Miao Dongsheng through the communication talisman to continue sending more people to surround Xiao Hong. In short, since he had come to this point, he would stop at nothing to kill Xiao Hong!

  In the front, Xiao Hong was raging, and with a glance at the corner of his eye, he naturally noticed Miao Chen's action of taking out the communication talisman. His mind couldn't help but move, and he was very clear about what Miao Chen wanted to do - continue to send reinforcements from the Miao family to surround and intercept him.

  At this point, Xiao Hong can't shake off Miao Chen thoroughly and doesn't have time to activate his communication tattoo. Once they form a siege, it's all over. Moreover, even if he could shake them off, the distance from here to his home, let alone Kolon or Shang Hong, is already extremely far, making it almost impossible to find a place to take refuge.

  "What to do? Must think of a way." Xiao Hong's forehead was already sweating, having consumed most of his energy from the previous concert, now only less than 500 stocks were left.

  Although there is a cyan black magic bead, will Miao Chen give himself a chance to use it now?

  Whoosh! Whoosh!

  Just as Xiao Hong's form was plummeting downwards, a row of six-sided dart-like objects suddenly shot towards the space between Xiao Hong and Miao Chen, forming a straight line. The magic patterns carved on top of them then exploded one after another, instantly creating a sea of flames.

  On the high wall on one side, two people have appeared, both wearing Melon-patterned clothes, and without much delay, they did not greet Xiao Hong, but directly pounced on Miao Chen and others, trying to intercept their footsteps!

  Looking at the two people with Melon-patterned tattoos, one of them drew out a sharp tattooed knife, and the other had already activated his battle pattern, pouncing towards him. Miao Chen's expression changed slightly, he naturally recognized these two people, who were considered high-level students of the Melon-patterned tattoo school. One was a third-level Rider, and the other was a second-level Rider, named Wen Jing and Gu Teng respectively.

  Miao Chen was still fully capable of coping with it.

  He took a slight step back, and Miao Chen suddenly opened his arms wide. A low hum filled the air as a large swarm of dark, ghostly flies suddenly materialized in front of him, dancing in the air before him like a dark, oppressive cloud.

  No pleasantries were exchanged, no shouting or posturing; in an instant, the two groups of people were embroiled in a fierce melee.

  At this moment, almost every fly seemed to have turned into Miao Chen's arms, surrounding Wen Jing and Gu Teng.

  "Park Yat, you continue to pursue Xiao Hong, I have others, they will be here soon!" Miao Chen ordered.

  "Got it." Piao Yi responded, then bypassed the two in front of him and continued to strike at Xiao Hong, clearly showing that Miao Chen and the entire Miao family had made up their minds to put Xiao Hong to death.

  Xiao Hong, who had just turned a corner, was about to catch his breath when he saw Park Il's figure chasing after him again. His expression involuntarily tensed up once more, and he could only increase the speed of the Ling Snake's vortex again.

  Although Xiao Hong and Park Yi were both third-level riders, Xiao Hong was well aware that this was not the time for a head-on collision. Once they clashed, it would be disadvantageous to himself. Firstly, Park Yi had the war pattern of a third-level rider, while Xiao Hong's highest equipment was only a first-level riding bow and a second-level dark blue magic bead. Moreover, through observation, Xiao Hong clearly discovered that his opponent was already an old third-level rider, while he had just entered the third level.

  The second point, and also the most important one, is that once they stop, they will give the Miao family people time to catch their breath. As for how many people Mei Long sent, Xiao Hong doesn't know either. Even if all of them are mobilized, it's estimated that they have already scattered in search of him, and it's impossible for them to gather together in a short period of time.

  He slightly raised his head, and at this time, Xiao Hong saw that just in front of him, spanning the distance of a street, was Mei Lin Park. Since it was already close to autumn, there were hardly any people inside, and it was dark and gloomy. More importantly, Xiao Hong liked forests.

  That should be a good place to shake off pursuers.

  Xiao Hong secretly guided the air swirl, then increased its thrust and precisely rushed into the forest in the park. He quickly moved the two air swirls under his feet, suppressing the sound of movement to a minimum.

  There were no streetlights and the forest was pitch black, with visibility much worse than on the streets. However, Xiao Hong had night vision goggles so he wasn't worried.

  Looking back at Pu Yi, who was following closely behind, he wasn't so lucky. As soon as he entered the forest, everything in front of him turned black and he could hardly see anything.

  Unconsciously, his footsteps slowed down a lot, and he became more vigilant.

  Whoosh!

  Just as Park Yat's footsteps slowed down slightly, a loud air friction sound suddenly entered his ears.

  Following the sound, Pak Yat could clearly see a dark green, feather-like energy body emitting a faint glow, rapidly hurtling towards him.

  Park Yat had a deep understanding of the severity of this thing, and he could also make simple changes during the process. Therefore, he didn't dare to be slow for a moment, suddenly retreated two steps, then turned around and went behind a large tree.

  Boom!

  After a dull thud, the tree trunk as thick as an adult's waist suddenly shattered and slowly toppled to one side.

  At the same time, after avoiding a blow, Park Yat thought it would be even more difficult to find Xiao Hong through subtle clues. The surroundings were pitch black, and except for the sound of the magic car flying in the distance, no other movement could be heard.

  At this time, Xiao Hong had emerged from the woods like a spirit monkey and was walking on the small path in the park. However, his expression did not show any hint of ease after shaking off his pursuer. He knew that getting rid of them was only temporary, and he estimated that soon there would be more people from the Miao family tracking him down to surround and kill him.

  At present, for Xiao Hong, the only way is to change his identity and sneak back home unnoticed. After all, although they followed him to his own home, they didn't see his face. As long as he sneaks back home, tomorrow will be another good day.

  At this time, Xiao Hong suddenly thought of the travel permit hidden in his backpack, and his expression moved slightly.

  He walked quickly along the path, Xiao Hong looking around at the scenery on both sides, and soon found a toilet next to a tree.

  Without hesitation, Xiao Hong quickly crawled in, took off his backpack, replaced the hidden travel gear as is, and swallowed a cyan-black magic rune bead to refill his driving force. The entire process only took one minute. Although the communication magic rune in his pocket was vibrating non-stop, Xiao Hong really didn't have time to answer it now. Now, it's better to rely on oneself than others.

  Looking at the greenish tint on the peeled jacket, Xiao Hong knew that it was the biggest threat to his exposure. Although he was reluctant, Xiao Hong still prepared to abandon it and threw it into the toilet before leaving, not forgetting to activate a explosive magic rune wrapped in the black leather jacket.

  After this explosive rune is activated, the texture above will begin to oxidize, especially when it comes into contact with a large area of air, which will further accelerate the oxidation process. Once it reaches the critical point, it will spontaneously ignite and form a huge fireball, with moderate power but giving an opportunity to strike the opponent, Xiao Hong will not let go.

  He lightly opened the bathroom door, creating a gap, and seeing that there was no one around, Xiao Hong quickly sprinted onto the small road, restarting the spirit snake at the same time, rapidly dashing towards another corner of the park, trying to shake off Pu Yi as much as possible, and also trying to create some distance from the previous bathroom.

  Chapter 170: Mutation!

  "What's going on?"

  Just as Xiao Hong had just walked out of the park and onto the street, planning to contact the communication tattoo to let them know everything was okay, a sudden voice came from behind him.

  Upon hearing this voice, Xiao Hong's expression changed suddenly, and he slightly turned his head to see three people standing behind him, their battle auras already activated, with a hint of ferocity in their expressions.

  "This……" Xiao Hong couldn't help but utter such a sound, his expression was extremely complex. These three strangers, Xiao Hong could be certain that they were cultivators, and their strength should be at least around the third level of Qi Refining. Xiao Hong still wasn't a match for them! Moreover, from their actions to their expressions, it was clear that they intended to do him harm.

  What's going on? Why is it now that no matter what identity I have, people will come after me and try to kill me?

  Xiao Hongxin felt a bit bitter in his heart, but his expression had become extremely vigilant. He took two steps back and increased the thrust of the spiritual snake, rushing towards the distant end with a loud whoosh.

  The three guys behind him also started to chase after him relentlessly, and along the way, he could vaguely see that there were still scattered people joining in the pursuit. In just ten minutes, the number of people behind Xiao Hong had changed from three to seven! All were unfamiliar faces.

  While constantly fleeing, Xiao Hong's brain had already reacted and realized that Quan Cang's identity was unrelated to the three major forces, let alone other forces in Tai Wu City. They didn't want to kill him, but rather recruit him.

  So, apart from the three major powers, who else could it be? Xiao Hong was certain that the person chasing him from behind was 100% from the Weilin Empire. It's likely that their previous collaboration with Luo Xue Ning had already reached the ears of the high-ranking officials in the Weilin Empire, and they had already marked Quan Cang as an enemy, to be killed on sight!

  And this region, why would there be many people from the Kingdom of Mulan? This doesn't make sense.

  However, Xiao Hong can no longer afford to think about so many things now, and his heart is already filled with endless bitterness!

  But now it's too late to say anything, for the time being, survival is the most important thing.

  He observed his surroundings once again, and Xiao Hong was able to determine that the soldiers of the Weilin Kingdom seemed to be stuck in the streets and alleys of the northwest district of Ta Wu. If they continued to run like this, they would only attract more enemies. Helpless, Xiao Hong could only re-adjust their direction, heading northwest, hoping to enter the suburbs nearby, where there were fewer people and familiar forests, hoping to shake off their pursuers and find a chance to survive.

  Although he had made up his mind, Xiao Hong was extremely displeased at this moment. He had never thought that one day he would be so hated by others!

  At the same time, on the other side of the Fulong warehouse, the battle had been going on for a while, but just at this moment, Xu Guohao and Mo Xuan suddenly discovered that the fierce counterattack firepower from the Fulong warehouse earlier had suddenly stopped, leaving only the broken warehouse building.

  It's almost completely quiet now.

  "What's going on?" Xǔ Guóháo, who was in the team, suddenly asked.

  He then raised his arm, signaling an end to the attack.

  "Scout." Xu Guohao suddenly said loudly.

  "Understood." The detector beside him responded with a sound, and then took out a metal object similar to a swallow from the mechanical backpack behind him, with two parallel magic lines in the center.

  The detective then threw this swallow-like object into the air and controlled it with an exceptional magic thread with a small light screen.

  Soon, the swallow-like object entered the warehouse building from the damaged part and into the interior. At this time, the detector was surprised to find that the warehouse had been emptied, and the goods had been moved away, leaving no one in the building.

  "How could this be?" Xugu Hao, who was standing by, saw the situation and his heart suddenly moved. He could see that the Weilin Empire seemed to have known all along that they would attack here, and the earlier resistance had been just a ruse, accompanying them in hiding and playing around.

  "Hurry and get in touch with Luo Xue Ning, tell her that there's been a change of situation!" Xu Guohao instructed his assistant beside him.

  At the same time, on another mountain road, Luo Xue Ning had already gotten off the magic pattern car and started leading Ke Si and Sa Qi to walk towards the mountains on foot.

  Just then, a sudden urgent vibration came from the communication talisman in Lu Xue Ning's arms.

  Took it out and took a look, it was indeed sent by Xu Guohao.

  "General Xu, what's going on?" Luo Xue Ning asked in a low voice.

  "Sir, it's bad news! We just found out that the Fulong warehouse has been emptied. The enemy seems to have discovered it earlier. I suggest..."

  Whoosh! Crack!

  Before Xu Guohao could finish what he was saying, a small flash of light suddenly shot out from above Lu Xue Ning's palm and knocked the communication talisman out of her hand!

  Suddenly passing through her mind, Luo Xue Ning suddenly exclaimed, "Ke Su has already activated his battle pattern!"

  "Kos, what are you going to do?" Seeing Kos's actions, Luoxue Ning suddenly became vigilant and asked, as if she also had a bad premonition.

  "Lo Xue Ning, General Lo, it's been a long time." Suddenly, a low voice came from the depths of the mountain forest. Then, Lo Xue Ning saw that in the mountain forest, more than a dozen high-intensity magic lanterns suddenly lit up and were all aimed at him.

  The sudden strong light made Luo Xue Ning somewhat uncomfortable, and she instinctively stretched out her hand to cover her eyes. Then, under the strong light, the figure of Ah Tu sitting in a wheelchair suddenly appeared, along with more than 100 soldiers from the Weilin Kingdom, almost surrounding Luo Xue Ning.

  Then he looked at Kos again, who had already taken a few steps back and opened up some distance with Luoxue Ning.

  "Kuos, you..." Sakki, another general who came with Luoxue Ning, fixed his gaze on Kuos, with a hint of surprise in his eyes, but more of it was hostility.

  What's happening right now is very clear, Cos is a traitor!

  Luoxue Ning, standing in front, only glanced at Kos slightly and didn't show much expression, but instead fixed her gaze on the map.

  "It was you who secretly deployed in Taiwu City, but I didn't expect that you're still not dead." Lu Xue Ning said with a slightly cold expression, but within the coldness, a hint of severity could already be seen.

  "How can I rest with a clear conscience if I don't flatten your Singh kingdom? Cough, cough." Baitu responded with a single word and let out two light coughs.

  "It's said that last time, you forcibly tried to control the Soul Driver but failed and got heavily injured, unable to freely manipulate the driving force, let alone drive the battle patterns. That means you've already lost your fighting strength. And with just these people by your side, do you think they're my match?" Luo Xue Ning smiled slightly and said softly.

  And took the opportunity to drive several of its commonly used battle patterns.

  "One person is not your opponent, we can use the tactic of overwhelming numbers. More importantly, I am unable to mobilize my strength, that was in the past. In Tai Wu City, I have already stayed for three years and found a way to treat my injuries. I believe I will recover soon. Occasionally driving one or two battle patterns is still no problem."

  As soon as he finished speaking, a sharp glint flashed across the pupils of his eyes, and then he quickly stretched out his right hand with five fingers open. In an instant, five red light threads appeared and began to entwine each other in mid-air, forming a large red net that resembled a bloody mouth, rapidly closing in on Luo Xue Ning.

  Luo Xue Ning naturally wouldn't just sit and wait for death, quickly using the Shattered Sound War Pattern to send out a few powerful sound waves. Unfortunately, even though Ah Bai had injuries on his body, he could still release power at the level of a Great Master, which was still higher than Luo Xue Ning's fifth-level Master.

  Thus, the series of sound waves emitted by Luo Xue Ning only broke a few strands of energy threads and did not completely destroy the crimson energy net.

  Helpless, Luoxue Ning could only activate a purple steel magic shield. In an instant, a hemispherical protective cover was formed in front of Luoxue Ning, blocking the crimson energy net from wrapping itself around her.

  Luo Xue Ning was also very clear that at this time, the Emperor would not easily kill himself, because for now only Luo Xue Ning knew where the things from Xiao Jia Village were hidden.

  As the purple steel shield and blood-colored energy grid collided, the friction generated a dazzling light that flashed constantly. Fortunately, the Steel Demon's protective shield still held up, but it was extremely strained.

  As for the onlookers, they didn't dare to get too close, because based on their status, blindly approaching would be risky, and a long-range attack could happen at any time, who could guarantee that Luo Xue Ning's life wouldn't be lost.

  But on the other hand, Saki seemed somewhat redundant, three Tier 3 drivers, after a few rounds of long-range attacks, blasted Saki to the ground.

  "Just waste away, I suppose it will exhaust the energy inside you, and you'll be honest. Don't worry, once we get what you want, you'll help me heal my injuries greatly, and then we'll return your corpse to your master." Ah Tu said with a cold tone, his voice calm and even, without any hint of urgency.

  Looking at Luoxue Ning, a hint of severity had already appeared on her face, and in her mind, she was thinking of ways to deal with the situation. Unfortunately, under the current circumstances, there were no reinforcements around, and there was nothing that could be done about it.

  At the same time, Xiao Hong, who had already ventured deep into the forest, was in his element, and with the help of night vision goggles, his field of view was almost unaffected.

  Looking back again, the seven or eight people from the Weilin Kingdom who were originally chasing after him had now dwindled down to just three, and their abilities were roughly on par with his own. This realization brought a slight sense of relief to Xiao Hong.

  The originally rapid footsteps had slowed down slightly, and a chill appeared in his expression. This night could be said to have made Xiao Hong extremely unhappy. He couldn't say that he didn't want revenge or vent his anger; even Xiao Hong himself didn't believe it.

  Soon, on Xiao Hong's right finger, a dark green energy mass formed, which was not conspicuous even in the darkness of night.

  This can be said to be Xiao Hong's territory. If you want to confront Xiao Hong here, unless you have a clear advantage over him, don't even think about gaining any advantage.

  Xiao Hong moved quietly and hid behind a tree trunk, his fingertips shifted slightly, and he locked onto a Weilin soldier 50 meters away who was chasing him.
