Fan Lian had just landed when he was struck by an attack from Sun Jing. Instantly, a mouthful of fresh blood mixed with some internal organs spewed from his mouth.
At this moment, Fan Lian was weakly slumped on the ground, his breathing becoming very faint, and he appeared quite listless.
Clearly, Fan Lian was severely injured and had little strength to retaliate.
Nearby, Aotian shakily stood up and then staggered towards Fan Lian.
At this time, Aotian was not in good shape either. He had detonated the Annihilation Finger that he had formed using the Transformation Technique. Although it had dealt a heavy blow to Fan Lian, it had undoubtedly also left him severely injured.
His Golden Energy Sphere in the Dantian no longer shone with its previous brilliance; the Dragon's Phantom within the energy sphere had also become much more illusory, and the spirit in his eyes seemed to have faded significantly.
However, compared to Fan Lian, Aotian was undoubtedly in a better condition. After all, the former had already been impacted by Aotian's "mutual destruction" technique and then faced an attack from Niu Geng Sun Jing, which only added to the injuries of this Azure Cloud Sect Second Elder.
Aotian unsteadily approached Fan Lian, staring coldly at him.
Under the murderous gaze of Aotian, Fan Lian involuntarily shivered and then shouted with a fierce tone:
"You brat, I am the Second Elder of the Azure Cloud Sect. If you dare to kill me, the Azure Cloud Sect will definitely hunt you down to the ends of the earth! If you know what’s good for you, let me go quickly!"
A trace of cold laughter flashed in Aotian's eyes, and then he suddenly stomped his foot down on Fan Lian's chest.
With a crack, a clear sound of bones breaking echoed. Following that, a piercing scream escaped from Fan Lian.
"You bastard, how dare you treat me like this? Just wait! The Azure Cloud Sect will never let you go!" Fan Lian glared at Aotian with a look full of resentment.
A cold glint flashed in Aotian's eyes as he slowly moved his right foot towards Fan Lian's throat.
Instantly, fear spread across Fan Lian's eyes. He believed that if Aotian stepped down with that foot, he would truly be heading to hell.
In the face of death, there are probably very few who can remain calm. And Fan Lian is clearly not one of them.
"This... this young man, there’s no need to be like this, we can talk things over, right?" Fan Lian stammered.
Aotian was slightly taken aback, seemingly not expecting Fan Lian's sudden change in demeanor. However, this was good; it saved him the trouble of using force.
"I ask you, why did Aoling go to Aojia?" Aotian said sternly.
Fan Lian was momentarily stunned, then his eyes darted as if he was thinking about something.
"I advise you to tell the truth; otherwise, I will definitely break your bones piece by piece!" Aotian's tone was quite ominous.
Upon hearing this, Fan Lian couldn't help but shiver and hurriedly replied:
"Aoling went to Ning City Aojia for someone named Aotian. According to her, this Aotian is very likely the one who killed Murong Qian, so she has already brought people to Aojia to capture that Aotian."
After hearing this, Aotian was momentarily stunned and furrowed his brow, seemingly deep in thought.
After pondering for a long time, Aotian had already guessed the general course of events. It seemed that Aoling was seeking personal revenge and had deliberately "framed" him for the murder of Murong Qian. However, it was also a case of hitting the mark by accident.
Suddenly, a sense of crisis arose in Aotian. The fact that Aoling was going to Aojia was definitely not good news for him; she might even vent her anger on his father, Aotian, if she couldn't find him.
Although Aoling might not necessarily be stronger than Aotian, one must not forget that she was bringing many experts from the Azure Cloud Sect to Aojia.
Thinking this way made Aotian feel anxious; he wished he could sprout wings and fly straight to Aojia.
"How long ago did Aoling set off for Aojia?" Aotian asked in a deep voice.
Perhaps fearing the earlier authority of Aotian, Fan Lian dared not play tricks anymore and honestly replied:
"It has been two days."
After hearing this, Aotian felt a subtle sense of relief in his heart. Ning City is located in the west of Fengyun Nation, and it would take at least ten days to half a month to reach it from Azure Cloud Sect. If he were to travel overnight, he might arrive at Aojia ahead of Aoling, and then his father would not be in danger.
Thinking this way, Aotian became even more anxious.
"Little... Brother, I've told you everything you wanted to know. Can... can you let me go now?" Fan Lian asked cautiously.
Upon hearing Fan Lian's words, Aotian immediately suppressed his anxiety and sneered:
"Let you go? Did I promise you that?"
As soon as Aotian finished speaking, Fan Lian's face changed dramatically. Just as he was about to struggle and escape, Aotian's foot came down hard on Fan Lian's throat.
With a crisp sound of bones breaking, Fan Lian's eyes bulged out, and the look of fear on his face slowly froze as he lost his breath.
Clearly, this renowned Second Elder of the Azure Cloud Sect in Fengyun Nation was completely obliterated under Aotian's foot.
"Let's go, head to Ning City Aojia!"
Seeing that Fan Lian was dead, Aotian immediately shouted at Niu Geng.
However, just as his words fell, darkness suddenly enveloped him, and his body began to shake violently, clearly a prelude to fainting.
This was understandable; Aotian had already sustained serious injuries earlier and had subjected Fan Lian to severe torture afterward. If it weren't for Aotian's astonishing willpower, he would have likely fainted long ago.
However, the human body always has its limits. Once this limit is exceeded, one will faint. Aotian had crossed this limit through sheer willpower. Therefore, when Fan Lian died, he could only helplessly succumb to unconsciousness.
Niu Geng had been watching Aotian closely, and the moment Aotian fainted, he appeared beside him like a ghost. He lifted the unconscious Aotian onto his back.
"Boss, boss, what happened to you?" Niu Geng shouted anxiously.
However, Aotian remained with his eyes tightly closed, unresponsive, only a hint of pain visible on his brow.
At that moment, Sun Jing, who was standing nearby, suddenly spoke up:
"Your boss was injured during the battle just now and needs immediate treatment. Otherwise, if too much time passes, it could leave lasting effects."
Upon hearing this, Niu Geng was immediately distressed. The best way to treat his boss right now was to use a Healing Pill, but as a rough man, he certainly wouldn't have any Healing Pills on him. Perhaps there was one in his boss's Storage Ring, but he couldn't access it. All he could do was anxiously pace back and forth.
Sun Jing seemed to notice Niu Geng's predicament and stepped forward to say:
"I have a Healing Pill here; it might be quite helpful for your boss's injuries."
With that, he handed Niu Geng a pearl-sized Emerald Healing Pill.
Seeing the pill, Niu Geng was overjoyed. Although he wasn't very knowledgeable about alchemy, he could still sense the vibrant life force contained within the pill that Sun Jing had presented.
Even a fool would know how immensely beneficial this pill would be for Aotian's injuries.
Without hesitation, Niu Geng quickly took the pill and placed it into Aotian's mouth. Immediately, the pill dissolved into a surge of life-filled energy that rushed through Aotian's limbs and body.
Aotian's pale face showed a slight flush after taking the pill, but unfortunately, there were still no signs of him waking up.
Seeing that Aotian had shown some improvement, Niu Geng let out a heavy sigh of relief. He then turned to Sun Jing and asked:
"Senior Sun, do you know where Ning City is?"
"Of course, I know that Ning City is located in the western part of Fengyun Nation. It's a medium-sized city. Why, do you want to go there?" Sun Jing replied.
Niu Geng nodded heavily and said, "Before the boss fell into a coma, he mentioned that we should head to Ning City immediately. I believe he must have something important that cannot be delayed, so I want to take him to Ning City. I wonder if Senior Sun could guide us?"
Sun Jing pondered for a moment and said, "No problem. My Sun Family is not far from Ning City; I'll take you there!"
With that, he flew off in a certain direction.
Seeing this, Niu Geng quickly picked up Aotian and followed closely behind Sun Jing.
After slaying Fan Lian, Aotian's consciousness fell into darkness, and his perception of the outside world diminished to its lowest point.
However, in the midst of this darkness, he faintly heard sounds of fighting, shouting, and screams.
After an unknown amount of time, his consciousness seemed to discover a glimmer of brightness in the darkness. Suddenly, he followed the brightness and walked out of the boundless darkness...
Aotian slowly opened his eyes, and what came into view was a dark and narrow stone cave.
As his gaze gradually shifted, two familiar yet haggard faces appeared before him.
The owners of these faces were Niu Geng and Sun Jing.
At this moment, both of them looked pale, their clothes stained with blood. They were fully alert, watching cautiously outside the cave.
It seemed that they were so focused on the outside that when Aotian opened his eyes to look at them, they did not react immediately.
"Niu Geng!"
Suddenly, Aotian called out, his voice still somewhat weak, but undoubtedly more spirited than before he fell unconscious.
When Niu Geng heard someone suddenly call his name, he was startled. However, upon realizing it was his boss calling him, a look of joy appeared on his face as he said, "Boss, you're awake?"
A faint smile appeared on Aotian's pale face as he gently nodded and then asked in confusion, "Niu Geng, where is this? Why do you all look so cautious?"
Upon hearing Aotian's question, the joy on Niu Geng's face instantly faded, replaced by a worried expression as he said, "Boss, here's what happened..."
In the stone cave, Niu Geng began to explain what had occurred after Aotian fell unconscious, while Sun Jing, who was quietly observing the movements outside the cave, occasionally added a comment or two...
