Chapter 34: Chapter 34: Three Marrow Refinement Realm Martial Artists in Pursuit!

"Over there, does it sound like they are calling out ’Yaotiao’?"

"Lu Chen’s maidservant is named Qin Yaotiao!"

"I remember that name clearly, ’Yaotiao, a fair lady, a gentleman’s good match’!"

Three Martial Artists of the Marrow Refinement Realm immediately confirmed their identities, their eyes shining with excitement.

They had traveled this difficult shortcut for a month, and now they could finally consider their mission accomplished!

"Let’s go, let’s hurry over and have a look!"

...

"Young Master, is this really the Spirit-communicating Grass we have been looking for?"

At this moment, Lu Chen had already picked the Spirit-communicating Grass, but before he could hand it to Qin Yaotiao, he saw the Spiritual Power on the grass quickly dissipating.

Lu Chen finally understood what Doctor Zhao meant.

"Quick, eat this Spirit-communicating Grass, but you must also be prepared to vomit blood!"

Lu Chen’s face was a mix of anticipation and worry.

"Mhm, young master, rest assured!"

Qin Yaotiao, firmly remembering the purpose of coming to Ten Thousand Demon Mountain, swallowed the Spirit-communicating Grass without hesitation.

Lu Chen also quickly took out items from his person and began setting traps around them.

The sky had already darkened, and beasts often roamed at night.

The blood spat out by Qin Yaotiao was sure to attract some beasts, so he needed to make thorough preparations!

"Uh...puh!"

Just after Lu Chen finished his preparations, Qin Yaotiao indeed began vomiting blood.

As soon as she opened her mouth, blood sprayed all over her body.

She had not yet caught her breath when she suddenly clenched her lower abdomen and vomited another mouthful of fresh blood!

"Young...young master..."

Qin Yaotiao was in extreme discomfort, and her call for Lu Chen was either intentional or unintentional, but it was interrupted again.

"Yaotiao, hold on!"

Lu Chen knew he couldn’t be of much help, so he could only grip the Heavenly Inquiry Spear tightly and continue to patrol back and forth.

But suddenly.

From the direction they had come, there came the sound of footsteps on dry leaves!

Lu Chen quickly looked over, and within the darkness of night and the dim forest, there were three figures!

"Who else would come to these deep mountains?"

Lu Chen dared not let out a breath and hid behind a large tree.

The extraordinary utility of his pupils allowed him to detect others in advance, yet remain undetected himself!

"I smell blood!"

One Martial Artist of the Marrow Refinement Realm said.

Upon hearing this, Lu Chen was shocked; that was clearly the same voice he had heard in the valley!

It was those three Martial Artists of the Marrow Refinement Realm!

They...

How did they follow him all the way here?

"Over there, there seems to be a figure, let’s go have a look!"

"It must be Qin Yaotiao, could it be that she is injured?"

The other two also noticed Qin Yaotiao, who sat on the ground, shivering.

With their keen eyesight, combined with the strong smell of blood in the air, it was clear she was vomiting blood.

"Be careful, Qin Yaotiao is injured, and Lu Chen is not around..."

"Moreover, there are traces of traps here, maybe Lu Chen went to look for some Spiritual Medicine?"

The three proceeded cautiously, continuously communicating their thoughts.

Unbeknownst to them, they were already dangerously close to Lu Chen!

Lu Chen stood the spear beside him, he had only fought beasts this past month and hadn’t encountered people, even though he knew he had grown much stronger, he had no idea how he would fare against humans.

If he could ambush and kill one of the three Martial Artists of the Marrow Refinement Realm and employ the Hateful Heaven Pupil Technique’s effect, perhaps he could protect Qin Yaotiao completely!

Lu Chen had just made his decision when one of them happened to step over a trap!

As the man’s balance was off, Lu Chen fiercely channeled Spiritual Power and thrust the Heavenly Inquiry Spear!

Whoosh!

"Puchi!"

The sound of the spear piercing the air was followed by the sound of the weapon entering flesh!

That thrust went straight through the chest!

"Damn, it’s Lu Chen!"

The other two reacted very quickly. Before Lu Chen could retrieve the Heavenly Inquiry Spear, they had already located Lu Chen and came at him with their weapons drawn!

Lu Chen’s heart skipped a beat, and he quickly activated the Hateful Heaven Pupil Technique, but then he realized it could only focus on one person!

No matter which of the Martial Artists he concentrated on, the other’s killing move would definitely land on him.

Lu Chen wasn’t so arrogant as to believe he could take on two Martial Artists of the Marrow Refinement Realm and emerge victorious!

Consequently, he fiercely withdrew the Heavenly Inquiry Spear and used the momentum to flee!

"Chase," one Martial Artist quickly analyzed the situation, Lu Chen was unwilling to face them head-on, so they could not allow him to gain distance, otherwise, with the cover of night, they would lose all advantage!

The two Martial Artists, as if on cue and in perfect coordination, chased after him.

One wielded a blade, and the other a sword.

Their seamless sword and blade collaboration left Lu Chen no chance to counterattack.

But suddenly, one of the Martial Artists said, "Chasing him is pointless, let’s capture Qin Yaotiao!"
