Kong Rui knew that the Yin-Yang Umbrella was useless in front of the experts in the palace, so she didn’t intend to waste time. The right thing to do was to let Little Lion carry her and leave quickly.
Kong Rui was sitting on Little Lion. Just as she jumped up from the back garden, she was discovered by the two experts hiding in the palace.
“Quick! Chase after them!” one of them shouted.
The two of them quickly chased after the griffin.
An adult griffin’s cultivation level was at least at the third level of the Earth realm. To ordinary cultivators, it was a level that was difficult to reach in their entire lives.
As for Little Lion, its cultivation level increased even faster beside Kong Rui.
In its adult form, it was already close to the ninth level of the Earth realm. In other words, the powerhouses in the Imperial Capital were no longer its match.
However, these two powerhouses weren’t ordinary people.
One of them was already near the seventh level of the Earth realm, while the other was already at the ninth level of the Earth realm and was about to enter the perfected Earth realm.
Such strength wasn’t something Little Lion and Kong Rui could deal with.
“Little Lion, speed up!” Kong Rui urged, sensing that the two people behind her were about to catch up.
Little Lion glanced back and cursed while flapping its wings harder.
From the back garden to Spirit Mountain, Kong Rui and the others had to cross at least three palaces.
And now, there was only one palace left in front of them.
As long as they left the palace, these experts would no longer pursue them relentlessly. They would even avoid other powerhouses waiting for an opportunity to take revenge.
Kong Rui knew very well that most of these powerhouses hidden in the palace were traitors of various sects or people being hunted down by the five continents.
These people were also the most likely to serve the queen and the easiest to control.
After all, there weren’t many people in the five continents who dared to break into the imperial palace to kill people!
Kong Rui urged Little Lion to advance quickly. Little Lion didn’t dare to delay and rushed out of the palace with all its might.
Just as they arrived above the last palace, a black shadow suddenly flashed in front of them.
Little Lion immediately turned around and avoided colliding head-on.
After stabilizing its body, Little Lion immediately asked anxiously, “Master, are you alright?!”
Kong Rui shook her head. “I’m fine. Don’t worry!”
Little Lion was relieved and stared at the person in front of it. “Master, this person is almost at the perfected Earth rank!”
Kong Rui could also tell that the cultivation level of the person in front of her was extraordinary, but compared to him, she was too weak, so she couldn’t sense his true strength at all.
Hearing Little Lion’s words, Kong Rui immediately became vigilant.
“Can we win? What if we make a go for it?” Kong Rui asked Little Lion.
Little Lion thought for a moment and said, “We might be able to make a go for it if we fight with all our might.”
As soon as Little Lion finished speaking, the sixth-level Earth Rank powerhouse appeared on the other side of them.
“In this current situation, it might not work anymore.” Little Lion looked warily at the two powerhouses blocking their way.
If there was just one Earth Rank powerhouse, it might be able to take a gamble and rush out with its master.
Now that there was another one, there was probably no hope!
Just as Kong Rui was hesitating about what to do, the little phoenix’s voice suddenly sounded through her divine sense. “Master, let me out. I can help you!”
Despite hearing the little phoenix’s words, Kong Rui was still a little worried. “Your body hasn’t…”
“I’ve already recovered!” The little phoenix sounded very excited. “As expected, when I’m with Master, my wounds heal faster!”
Hearing the little phoenix’s words, Kong Rui immediately felt relieved.
She immediately summoned the little phoenix.
The little phoenix and Little Lion stood side by side, facing the two enemies in front of them.
The two powerhouses clearly didn’t expect to encounter such a situation. They exchanged looks and saw surprise in each other’s eyes.
