nodded and walked into the room first, Ericson followed and shut the door behind him.Ximen Yuliang said, "Auntie, please rest assured, since Mr. Erickson has said for half an hour, he will definitely...The Shangguan family's strength comes from two parts: men are skilled in corpse refining, and women excel in gu techniques.

Although their witchcraft lineage is not orthodox, its power is by no means diminished.

Most of the men who had just run out to fight the fire, women were still in their rooms. Hearing Shangguan Zhuo's command at this moment, they all released their venomous insects.

For a moment, the sky above the Shangguan family was filled with swarming insects. Scorpions, venomous snakes, centipedes, spiders, and all sorts of poisonous creatures were released, attacking Ye Bufan and his companion like a torrential downpour.

Seeing this scene, Shangguan Zhu finally let out a long sigh of relief.

In his eyes, the man pretending to be his son was dead for sure. No one could withstand so many venomous insects all at once. Even if the other party didn't die, they definitely wouldn't escape.

Ye Bufan was also taken aback when he saw these insects. Although with his ability, he wasn't afraid of one or two insects, there were simply too many of them.

Just as I was pondering how to handle the situation, I suddenly noticed that the swarms of insects were hesitant to get within 10 meters of the two people.

Even some turned tail and ran, others lay on the ground trembling, none dared to attack the two people.

This surprised him, and at the same time sped up his pace. After a few leaps, he escaped from the Shangguan family and fled towards the deep mountains in the north.

Shangguan Zhu was stunned, he didn't expect this outcome. He couldn't understand why these insects would avoid these two people

But time was pressing, he couldn't afford to think too much, so he could only chase after him relentlessly.

No matter what, he wouldn't let Ye Bufan leave today. On the one hand, he didn't know whether his son was dead or alive. On the other hand, he wanted to find out the secret hidden on the other person.

This person before us poses a grave threat to the Shangguan family. It's unknown what methods they used, but they managed to disable so many Yin Corpses.

Moreover, the insects dare not attack the two people.

That is to say, the two great treasures that the Shangguan family relied on for survival, the art of refining corpses and Gu worms, would not be very effective against others.

Such a huge threat, if not eliminated at the earliest opportunity, then the Shangguan family will be finished.

For this reason, he controlled his golden corpse to relentlessly pursue from behind, showing no intention of giving up at all.

Ye Bufan was chased by Yamamoto Sochi in Africa before, but unexpectedly, after just a few days, he was being pursued by Shangguan Zhuo in Xiangxi.

However, it was much easier than last time. First of all, his cultivation had risen from the initial stage of the Earth Rank to the middle stage of the Earth Rank, and his speed naturally increased by a large margin.

Secondly, while Shangguan Zhuo possessed a cultivation level of the late Earth Grade, he specialized in corpse refining and was not adept at light body techniques. He was even slower than Yamamoto Kusachi in this regard. As such, his escape was relatively effortless.

Shangguan Zhuo's golden corpse was incredibly fast, even comparable to a martial artist at the Heavenly Rank cultivation level.

But after all, he was just a corpse puppet. His combat ability was only within a range of 100 meters of Shangguan Zhuo. Once he exceeded that range, he could not be controlled.

Now the distance between the two sides was a full 200 meters away, which left him so frustrated that he could only stare helplessly, yet unable to send out his golden corpse to slay the opponent.

Ye Bufan also realized this, his feet did not stop, but he still let out a breath of relief, grasping his own life. This time was indeed extremely dangerous.

He said to Long Xiaoyue, "Why didn't those gu worms dare come near us just now Is it related to your natal gu"

At first I didn't quite understand, then it dawned on me - it must be the little multi-colored grub.

Long Xiaoyue said, “Yes, mine is a heavenly gu. It completely surpasses those poisonous insects in terms of level. They wouldn't dare to attack, not even come close.”

Ye Bufan nodded, "It's good to have you by my side, otherwise I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to escape the Shangguan family today."

Long Xiaoyue asked: "Little brother, how is it going Have you succeeded"

"Ye Bufan gave a brief and concise summary, finally saying: “I have dealt with the silver corpse of the Shangguan family, but the golden corpse is too powerful."

"Just as I was about to make my move, that old geezer Shangguan Zhuo caught me. He saw right through my ruse."

Long Xiaoyue excitedly said: “You actually managed to take down so many Yin corpses from the Shangguan family, you are truly amazing.”

Ye Bufan said: "It's a little early to be happy now. I haven't seen that old thing chasing after us."

Although Shangguan Zhuo's speed wasn't enough to catch up with the two people, he didn't fall too far behind either.

He secretly swore in his heart. With his peak Earth Rank cultivation, he was confident he could outlast the two people in front of him.

When they are truly exhausted, make sure to catch up and apprehend these two individuals.

Three people, two in front and one behind, were rushing through the mountains.

After more than an hour, the east had begun to slowly lighten, and a brand new red sun was rising slowly.

Although Long Xiaoyue was also at the middle stage of the Earth rank, she had only recently improved and was a pure martial artist. Her true energy couldn't circulate like Ye Bufan's endlessly.

As time went on, the speed began to gradually decrease, and his forehead was covered in sweat.

"Little brother, I can't do it anymore, I can't run. Why don't you just throw me down"

"That's impossible, no matter what, we must stay together."

After Ye Bufan finished speaking, he grabbed Long Xiaoyue and put her on his back. Although he had one more person, his speed was even faster than before.

Shangguan Zhu chased after them, and he started to see the two people's speed slow down, feeling a surge of delight in his heart.

Later, Ye Bufan carried Long Xiayue on his back, and his speed increased instead of slowing down. This made him feel anxious in his heart. He couldn't just let the two people in front of him go like this.

Unable to do anything else, he had to give up the dignity of being Shangguan family's second-in-command and jumped directly onto the back of the golden corpse, letting it carry him as he chased after.

The strength of the Golden Corpse was equivalent to that of a Heavenly Rank martial artist. Its speed needless to say, was extremely fast. After losing Shangguan Zhuo as a hindrance, its pursuit speed increased dramatically.

Feeling the rapid increase in speed behind him, Ye Bufan was startled. If this continued, the two of them would be caught up soon.

He pushed the Shenlong Tread Heaven step to its limits, but it was still no match for the speed of the pursuing golden corpse.

Long Xiaoyue saw Shangguan Zhuo catch up, anxiously said: "Little brother, shouldn't we fight him Anyway, the Shangguan family are bad people. I can use Gu worms."

"What are your odds" asked Ye Bufan.

Long Xiaoyue said: "I don't know, I've never used a Gu worm after it advanced."

"Forget it for now, let's figure out how to escape first. We can think about the rest if we can't."

In Ye Bufan's view, Long Xiaoyue's gu worms had just advanced, and they were probably not enough to withstand Shangguan Zhuo's golden corpse.

Once they fail, it will be too late for the two of them to run away.

Long Xiaoyue said, "But at this running speed, we're bound to be caught up to them sooner or later."

Ye Bufan blinked an eye and climbed over another mountain, suddenly he saw a large pool of water from afar.

Unbeknownst to them, they had already run hundreds of kilometers and returned to the pool where the two venomous snakes were previously coiled.

Ye Bufan exclaimed, "I have a way."

After speaking, he exerted all his strength to increase his speed and dashed towards the pond.

Dragon Xiaoyue also recognized the pond at this moment, and said nervously: "Little brother, what are you trying to do"

"We still have a chance against Shangguan Zhuo, but those two giant snakes are too powerful. My insects are useless against them."family, he'd always been the one doing the bullying; he had never experienced such grievance before."But that woman is too powerful. We're no match for her," said the disciple with some fear.And now,...
