Chapter 446: Chapter 446: Move and You Die!

Li Xiaoyao sped forward in the direction of the afternoon, his thoughts forming a sweeping circle. The moment he detected Cheng Yiyi’s traces, he would immediately rush over.

In the main control room, the Military Governors watched Li Xiaoyao’s relentless dash and couldn’t help but look at Cheng Dongliang with puzzled faces, “Old Cheng, what is he doing?”

Cheng Dongliang had a rough guess but pretended to know nothing, “You ask me, who do I ask?”

Li Xiaoyao continued his rapid travel for about half an hour, covering dozens of kilometers, but still found no trace of Cheng Yiyi.

About thirty kilometers away from Li Xiaoyao, a group of people was moving mightily in one direction.

After wandering aimlessly for about half an hour, Hong Yi couldn’t help but turn to look at Blood Rose, who lay on Ye Chu’s back, and asked, “Found anything?”

...

Blood Rose shook her head with her eyes closed, “No.”

Using the Light of the Heart was exhausting to one’s spiritual power. Although Blood Rose’s spiritual power was much stronger than that of an ordinary person, it paled in comparison to Li Xiaoyao’s. Moreover, she had been casting it continuously for half an hour and was already feeling physically and mentally drained.

Hong Yi held back her impatience, turned to the other team members, and started a casual conversation, “How exactly did Li Xiaoyao cultivate? He seems to be about our age, yet his cultivation level is terrifying.”

A man laughed and said, “Which powerful cultivator does not have the ability to change their appearance at will? Solely based on looks, you cannot determine his age. Maybe this Li Xiaoyao is already seventy or eighty years old.”

“He’s 28,” Cheng Yiyi blurted out, and everyone immediately turned to look at her.

Hong Yi narrowed her eyes and asked, “How do you know?”

Cheng Yiyi’s eyes darted around, and her red lips parted to speak, but she did not know how to explain.

Feng Longwei intervened to help her out, “Li Shisan once mentioned that Li Xiaoyao had gone missing twenty-eight years ago.”

“Tsk,” Hong Yi scoffed, “You believe such a story? If Li Xiaoyao were really from the Li Family, would he be able to make a move to kill Li Shisan? Clearly, it’s a lie, and only an idiot like you would believe it.”

Ye Chu seemed to have thought of something and suddenly turned around, staring at Cheng Yiyi with a piercing gaze as he challenged her, “Do you know Li Xiaoyao?”

At these words, everyone’s gaze once again shifted toward Cheng Yiyi, their eyes filled with a hint of surprise.

Just as Feng Longwei was about to speak, Cheng Yiyi admitted, “Yes, I know him.”

Hearing Cheng Yiyi’s admission, the look in people’s eyes became even more complex.

Huang Feng squinted his eyes, his smile dangerous as he inquired, “Oh? Then what is your relationship with Li Xiaoyao?”

“I have… no relationship with him,” Cheng Yiyi said, biting her red lip, yet her words were met with disbelief.

Her expression, coupled with her deliberately evasive gaze, almost shouted to everyone: ‘My relationship with him is out of the ordinary.’

Ye Chu clearly remembered the anxious look on Li Xiaoyao’s face and the anger in his eyes when he pushed Cheng Yiyi down the sand dune. From this, it was clear as day that there was a relationship between the two that went beyond the ordinary.

After this interlude, the atmosphere within the group seemed to grow eerier.

Huang Feng gave Ye Chu a meaningful glance, and they fell behind the group, speaking in hushed tones.

“I have a plan, just hear me out. If you think it’s feasible, then we’ll proceed with it,” Huang Feng said.

“Speak.”

“That woman knows Li Xiaoyao, and their relationship is surely extraordinary. In my opinion, it would be better to use her as bait.”

Ye Chu’s smile broadened, “Great minds think alike.”

Just as they reached an agreement and felt thrilled about the plan, the Blood Rose carried on Feng Longwei’s back suddenly opened her eyes, her voice trembling slightly as she said, “He’s here!”

The two immediately ran over and asked, “Where is he?”

With her gaze seeming unfocused, Blood Rose extended a delicate finger towards the right and said, “There!”

Looking in the direction she pointed, all they could see was a vast desert, nothing more.

“You’re not dreaming, are you?”

“Tell me, is this so-called ‘Light of the Heart’ of any use at all? You’re not fooling us, are you?”

Ye Chu, ignoring their skepticism, asked seriously, “How far away is he?”

“Ten kilometers,, no, nine kilometers,, eight kilometers,” Blood Rose kept blurting out numbers.

Huang Feng frowned and asked, “How far exactly?”

“He’s rapidly approaching us.” Blood Rose was almost in tears, Li Xiaoyao’s speed was too fast; to her psychic senses, he was like a sandstorm, charging towards them with thunderous momentum.

“What!” Ye Chu, alarmed, turned to the others and shouted, “Everyone on guard, he’s coming!”

A chill ran through everyone’s hearts,, even though nothing was visible ahead, Ye Chu’s expression and tone still conveyed a sense of pressure.

There were twenty-six people in total, standing in a line, gripping their weapons tightly, watching the endless desert ahead as if facing a formidable enemy.

Of them all, Yi Kong was the most at ease.

Even Cheng Yiyi was somewhat anxious; on one hand, she wanted to kill Li Xiaoyao, and on the other, she was eager to see him. This complex and bizarre feeling made her nervous.

But Yi Kong was truly relaxed, being the strongest member of Dragon Might this year, with a Cultivation Level already at the Third Rank of the Spirit Cultivation Realm. Plus, his mysterious origins gave him a terrifying strength that went beyond his apparent cultivation level.

He had once fought and prevailed against a Cultivator at the Ninth Rank of the Spirit Cultivation Realm. That battle made his name known in his region.

Later he even dared to challenge a Cultivator at the First Rank of the Golden Core Realm; though he ultimately lost, it was only by a narrow margin.

With such rich experience, Yi Kong believed that even if faced with Li Xiaoyao, who could kill Li Shisan, he had the power to fight, and it was not yet known who would win or lose.

One thing was clear, however,, Yi Kong was looking forward to battling Li Xiaoyao.

In this declining era on Earth, meeting one or two opponents worthy of full-strength combat was incredibly precious.

A black figure suddenly appeared in the distant desert, and this figure was swiftly advancing towards them at a terrifying speed.

As the figure drew closer, a trace of fear finally surfaced in the hearts of the Dragon Might members.

Even without knowing how strong Li Xiaoyao truly was, they could guess from his frightening speed that he must be formidable. At least in a one-on-one battle, they were undoubtedly no match for him.

Li Xiaoyao had already slowed down; otherwise, he could have covered these few kilometers in the blink of an eye, but he knew that surveillance drones were likely watching from unseen heights above.

Under surveillance, Li Xiaoyao did not want to reveal his full strength.

As he neared, Li Xiaoyao finally stopped dozens of meters from the group, standing with his hands behind his back.

A gentle breeze blew, lifting his black hair as dark as ink,, his eyes cold as ice blades, seemingly bottomless abysses that could make the unstable falter at a glance.
