Chapter 186 The mantis stalks the cicada, but the oriole follows behind
When Qin Susu opened her eyes, she saw Zhaoying and the black sword fighting again.
Is Senior Sister Gu okay?
Qin Susu couldn't help but look at the fairy sword that was as agile as a silver fish, and suddenly felt that she had underestimated Gu Lan.
What domineering sword energy? Senior Sister Gu can still take it! Qin Susu's cheeks were pink, and she was so happy that she was gasping for breath.
Of course, there is a cure for the domineering sword technique.
It is said that softness overcomes hardness, stillness overcomes movement, and weakness overcomes strength.
No matter whether it is domineering sword energy or wild sword technique, there is always a way to restrain it.
Before the sect competition, Gu Lan had seen Ji Yanli's sword moves.
Ji Yanli said that his sword moves were domineering and could take people's lives.
Gu Lan also learned Ji Yanli's sword moves, such as the Changkong Riyue Zhan. When she used this sword move, she thought about how to break the deadlock. She found that if the strength gap was not too big, using softness to overcome hardness would be very effective.
But if the gap in strength is too big, it will be difficult.
Fortunately, when she had just fought with the Jade-faced Young Master, she had felt his bottom line and knew that this Jade-faced Scholar should be at the same level as herself, so his domineering swordsmanship would not be much higher. She would be able to defeat him by using softness to overcome hardness and taking him by surprise.
In fact, Gu Lan guessed wrong.
The practice of the demon sect is very different from that of the orthodox cultivators. They use unorthodox methods to quickly break through the realm, but the foundation of this practice is not solid. Even if the realm is high, the strength does not match the realm and is only for show.
But there are also those with extremely great talents, who have both strength and realm.
But that’s a minority.
Taoist Chisha, who is quite powerful in the Demon Sect, has a realm comparable to that of Maitreya, the Palace Master of Tianyin Palace. However, when he saw Maitreya, the Palace Master of Tianyin Palace, he quickly ran away and did not dare to face the enemy head-on.
Therefore, even though the Jade-faced Young Master’s realm was higher than Gu Lan’s, his swordsmanship was on par with Gu Lan’s.
The swords of the two men fought in the sky, and there was no winner for a long time. The Jade-faced Young Master became more and more excited as the fight went on. His eyes were bloodshot and he laughed wildly.
A sword came slashing down, Gu Lan spun around to avoid it, and the sword energy created a hole where he had just stood.
"Little beauty, why did you hide away? You are quite strong, let's fight again!"
Seeing that he was gradually going crazy, Gu Lan's face was full of black lines. He avoided the sharp edge and did not confront him head-on. However, this made the Jade-faced Young Master more and more courageous. He felt that Gu Lan was like a fish in his hand, which he could not control, and his desire to conquer him was aroused more and more.
"My little beauty, fight again! Fight again!"
Gu Lan was not tired, nor did he lose his mind. He just fought him coldly. When he saw him chop down with his sword, he turned around and retreated, using the move of Flowing Clouds and Cutting Water to remove the black sword's energy, and flew out of the sword energy range gracefully.
Although Gu Lan was fighting fiercely with the Jade-faced Young Master, he felt that something was wrong.
Is there something wrong with this person's brain?
The more you fight, the more excited you become?
Did he forget about the secret treasure? How could he split himself into two and grab the treasure after such a fight?
Looking at Qin Susu and Ruan Feifei again, the two had not yet recovered from the poisoning, their junior brother and other disciples were fighting the enemy, and in the distance the elder of Feiyun Cave was fighting fiercely with others. It seemed that everything was fine.
But these people seem to be only focused on fighting, so what about the secret treasure? How to obtain it?
While I was wondering, I suddenly heard a whistle in the sky.
Immediately afterwards there was a loud crash, and a whirlwind blew up, blowing sand and fallen leaves wildly towards everyone.
After the wind died down, a huge owl soared into the sky. Looking closely, I saw a man in black clothes and colorful ribbons standing on the owl, holding a black box in his arms.
Ruan Feifei and Qin Susu had been regulating their breathing for a long time when they heard a bird chirping. They looked up and saw that the black box was being held by someone and was about to fly away on an owl. Seeing this scene, they became very emotional. They groaned and suddenly spat out blood.
"Oh no! The secret treasure has been stolen!"
The man who got the secret treasure stepped on the owl and laughed loudly, "Thanks to Master Yumian for delaying time. I should have gotten the treasure and left quickly, but I saw that Master Yumian was getting braver and braver, and I almost made mistakes. Now that the beautiful lady is alert, we should retreat quickly, otherwise Master Ku Mu will come back and we will be trapped."
The man who obtained the secret treasure was also a member of the Demon Sect. He had already succeeded but did not leave. He saw the two sides fighting in one place and was very interested. When he saw Gu Lan fighting and retreating with a confused look on his face, as if hesitating about something, he knew that he would be exposed soon and it would be difficult for him to leave, so he rode on the owl and flew into the sky.
It turned out that this group of people from the Demon Sect had conspired to do this, and they provoked Feiyun Cave with the likes of Jade-faced Young Master, causing a battle with them. He then took the opportunity to sneak into the treasure house of Feiyun Cave and steal the secret treasure. Now that he had succeeded, he soared into the sky, thinking that no one in Feiyun Cave could chase him, so he showed up.
He was right. The elders of Feiyun Cave had been lured away long ago. Those who were still in Feiyun Cave were injured, and those who were not injured would find it difficult to win the battle after a long time.
Seeing his smug smile, the Jade-faced Young Master burst into laughter and sneered, then finally regained his senses and stared at Gu Lan with a fixed gaze, as if Gu Lan was already in his pocket.
"You are great, I will come back to see you!"
If this kind of person sees a woman who is difficult to conquer at the moment, he will definitely pester her endlessly.
Gu Lan ignored him and didn't care what he said. He flew up and Zhaoying flew out, heading straight for the man on the owl.
Being ignored, the Jade-faced Young Master was filled with rage. Just as he was about to explode, the two demon girls hurriedly held him back and said, "Young Master, we'll find a chance later. Now let's retreat quickly. We don't know if Master Kurumu has escaped. If we go back to rescue our master, it will be difficult to leave when Master Kurumu comes."
The timing was not right, so the Jade-faced Young Master had to endure it and flew away with the two evil women.
Gu Lan chased after him, and although Ruan Feifei and Qin Susu had not yet finished regulating their breathing, they also flew over.
Xue Hao and Meng Xin killed the members of the Demon Sect who were trying to escape, and followed closely behind with several other disciples.
The people from the Demon Sect who were fighting with the elder of Feiyun Cave, upon hearing that they had succeeded, did not want to fight any longer and retreated one after another.
When those elders were fighting fiercely with others, they had thought that this was a strategy to lure the tiger away from the mountain, but the people from the Demon Sect who lured them out were very cunning and used a human wave tactic. They were surrounded heavily, and even if they knew that the secret treasure of their master was lost, they had no way to turn back.
Now that he saw the secret treasure had been taken by someone, he was unwilling to let anyone go and tried to fly towards the owl, but he was discovered and stuck there.
Too careless!
Who knew that the secret treasure of Feiyun Cave could be found so easily? Gu Lan was annoyed and confused, not knowing that the other party was catching the cicada while the oriole was waiting behind!
Everyone flew out of Piaomiao Mountain one after another. The sea was flat and wide, with almost no place to stand.
Seeing that they could not catch up, Ruan Feifei and Qin Susu gasped for breath and became even more anxious.
Seeing that the disciples behind him had surpassed him, he could only hope that Gu Lan could stop them a few times. Delaying for a while is better than delaying until the master comes back, then everything will be fine!
Gu Lan would never let anyone escape, but the owl flapped its huge wings and flew very fast. She could only keep a close distance from it by flying on her sword. How could she catch up with it?
If she can't stop the man and the secret treasure is stolen, not only will Master Kurumu be furious, but even her junior brother's health will be in jeopardy, so she will chase him even to the ends of the earth!
Gu Lan made up his mind, anxious and angry, sweat on his face, looking straight ahead, he took out the talisman in his arms, and was about to send it out, but the sea surface rolled like boiling water, huge waves hundreds of feet high hit the cliff, suddenly rose to mid-air, and blocked the round moon.
Everyone was confused as to what was going on and quickly turned around, leaving behind several sword marks. At this moment, a roar of thunder was heard as if it was coming from the sky.
"Where are you going, treasure thief?"
