Chapter 354: Traces
“Look over here!”
Lin Yiya shouted in the forest, attracting everyone’s attention.
No one noticed anything out of the ordinary.
“Lin Yiya, what did you find?”
“Look over here, these baby’s breath are growing in a different direction from the surrounding vegetation, and there are no traces of wild beasts or demonic beasts nearby. Most likely, these are the traces left by Wang Cheng and Wang Cui.”
Hearing this, Leng Wuyou and Leng Wuqing were dumbfounded.
She was able to determine Wang Cheng and Wang Cui’s location just by looking at some baby’s breath?
This was amazing!
“According to the directions… They are probably heading east. Let’s go to the east and take a look.”
“Sure.”
Everyone was impressed by Lin Yiya’s sharp thinking.
Not long ago, Hu Hefeng gave a riddle in class. At that time, even Victor could not guess the answer correctly, and it was Lin Yiya who solved the riddle first.
“Looks like we’re heading in the right direction. The footprints here should have been left by Wang Cheng.”
Lin Yiya lowered her body and looked at the footprints that were much bigger than her’s.
“Brother, go ahead and scout.”
“Sister, don’t you feel sad when you say that? I’m your brother!”
“Then brother, can you please go ahead and scout?”
“I’d be happy to.”
Lin Zihui chuckled and immediately clapped. Spiritual power gushed out from his body and blew the surrounding vegetation.
After a long time, Lin Zihui opened her eyes and shook her head. “There’s no ambush.”
“That’s not right. If Wang Cheng is planning to launch a sneak attack, this is the best chance.”
“Perhaps, they aren’t planning to ambush us?”
“If they aren’t, they definitely wouldn’t have left such an obvious trail.”
“Sister, aren’t you being too sensitive? Maybe Wang Cheng and the others are just careless?”
“Brother, you might be right about Nalan Xinxin, but do you think that Wang Cheng is such a stupid person?”
“Is he very smart?”
“His intelligence is not that far off from mine.”
Lin Yiya was a smart person. Smart people were always very proud. Therefore, since she was able to say such words, it meant that she had a high opinion of Victor.
“Perhaps, Wang Cheng deliberately left a trail to lure us?”
“We can’t rule out that possibility.”
Lin Yiya buried her head in thought, and after a long time, she said in a deep voice, “Is it possible that they went around and are behind us? After all, the rules don’t allow us to hide our presence. Maybe Wang Cheng is hidden along our tracks.”
“It’s not possible. If they are behind us, we should be able to find them.”
“Not necessarily. Maybe you didn’t notice them. However, Wang Cheng and Wang Cui have been going out of the cultivation technique department these days. They have been borrowing a cultivation technique called the Breath-holding technique. When they are cultivating, they can hide their tracks and not be discovered.”
“So, even if they are right beside us, we might not be able to find them.”
“I understand.”
Lin Zihui nodded and turned around to use his perception.
As expected, he did not find anything.
That was because Victor was 15 miles away from Lin Yiya and the rest.
“Strange, were my traces too secretive? Is that why they haven’t discovered us?”
That was right, just as Leng Wuyou had guessed, the traces that Lin Yiya found were actually left behind by Victor on purpose. Victor thought they would be able to follow the traces all the way here, but now, not a single person could be seen.
“Lin Yiya shouldn’t be so careless. Did something happened?”
That was right, something did happen.
Under Lin Yiya’s words, they gradually changed.
“Forget it, let’s retreat a little. Otherwise, wouldn’t my plan be ruined?”
Thinking of this, Victor and Lian Hua retreated ten miles back, hiding in the dense forest not far away from Lin Yiya and the others.
“Forget it, let’s continue forward. There’s no point in staying here.”
After thinking for a long time, Lin Yiya and the rest set off again.
As more and more traces were discovered, Lin Yiya began to think about whether she had overestimated Wang Cheng, but she did not say it out of respect.
Four hours later, Lin Yiya and the rest actually found Victor and Lian Hua, who were resting, which made Lin Yiya’s face a little ugly.
“You guys finally caught up.”
Noticing Lin Yiya’s group approaching, Victor stood up slowly and sneered,
“You left those traces on purpose?”
“That’s right.”
“Why? You should know that the two of you are no match for the four of us. If you want to fight, you can always fight with Nalan Xinxin. Three will always be stronger than two.”
“Do you think that stupid woman will listen to me?
“Anyway, the final result is a personal evaluation. I can’t do anything about her.”
“Indeed. So, why are you attacking here? You should have chosen a better opportunity.”
“According to the rules, you can either hide for seven days or fight head-on. Sneak attacks are not part of the rules.”
“I see, I understand. Brother, Leng Wuyou, Leng Wuqing, I’ll leave Wang Cheng to you. I’ll take care of Wang Cui.”
“Okay.”
Three against one. Lin Zihui, Leng Wuqing, and Leng Wuyou did not think that they would lose, even though the three of them had been defeated by Victor’s natural monstrous strength in the previous sparring.
Ever since Victor showed his foundation establishment realm cultivation, his qi and blood power had also increased. Now that he had shown his qi and blood power at the perfection stage of the foundation establishment realm, even Lin Zihui would not be able to take a full-strength attack head-on. So…they could not let their guard down even if it was three against one.
In fact, if it was not for the rule that no more than three people were allowed to gang up on one person, Lin Yiya would have chosen to finish off Wang Cheng as soon as possible.
After all, for a person who was born with divine strength, they would not be able to handle him without the use of their spiritual power. On the contrary, if they exhausted their spiritual power, they would still be like lambs waiting to be slaughtered in front of Victor.
“Lin Zihui, big brother, I will pin down Wang Cheng’s movements. The two of you wait for an opportunity to make a move!”
As Leng Wuyou said this, he slowly came to Victor’s side.
As a body cultivator, only Leng Wuyou could withstand Victor for a period of time. Therefore, without a doubt, he became the main candidate to pin down Victor.
As for Lin Zihui, her wind technique was superb, and with the help of the Fire Sect’s cultivation method, her lethality was formidable.
As a sword cultivator, Leng Wuqing was restricted from using weapons, so his combat strength was limited. He was responsible for reducing the pressure on Leng Wuyou.
At this point, the three-on-one battle officially began!
Meanwhile, Lin Yiya and Lian Hua.
“You don’t seem to be worried?” Lin Yiya said.
“What should I be worried about?”
“Wang Cheng is fighting three people by himself. Do you think he has a chance of winning?”
“My brother never loses.”
