Ao Xieyun was currently fleeing for his life! His once elegant moon-white brocade robe was now tattered and stained with blood.
His body was covered in wounds, his hair disheveled, his lips dry, and even his eye sockets were deeply sunken. As the recognized heir of the first great clan in the Nine Heavens, the direct descendant of the Ao Family, and the first in line for the position of patriarch, Ao Xieyun had never been in such a desperate situation.
He had never been chased like this before, nor had he ever had to flee for his life!
He had been running for over three months!
Ever since he left the Extreme North Wilderness, he had been constantly ambushed and forced to escape! For more than three months, he had found himself struggling between life and death several times a day! This young master of evil had lost a significant amount of weight,
Heaven knows where all these enemies came from, each one cloaked in black, encountering a group at every turn, and every treacherous area was surely an ambush!
The blood flowed like rivers along this path, killing him with fear and astonishment!
During the first encounter, the enemies had employed a silent and deadly poison mist, severely ambushing the members of the Ao Family. Except for four throne-level experts who fought desperately to protect Ao Xieyun and managed to escape, all other throne experts perished!
If it hadn't been for Ao Xieyun's constant vigilance against the Dark Demon Clan's surprise attacks, they would have been completely wiped out that day!
Even so, the invisible falcon used to relay messages for the family had also perished in that toxic mist! This left him in absolute isolation with no support.
It was a long and perilous journey with death lurking at every step!
Next, more enemies appeared, harassing, striking, battling, and chasing...
Up until now, only two throne experts remained by Ao Xieyun's side; the other two had already sacrificed their lives in ambushes to protect him!
It was a brutal ambush battle where the enemy had dispatched eight imperial-level experts! They relentlessly charged at Ao Xieyun's five-member team.
If Ao Xieyun hadn't suddenly realized the sixth-grade throne during that battle, he would have already been lying on the ground, a cold corpse!
Now, Ao Xieyun and his companions had been forced off the path back to the Ao Family, taking a different route. To return the same way was undoubtedly a suicidal act!
Since the enemy was so brazen in their attempts to kill him, how could they allow him to safely return to the Ao Family? No clan in the Nine Heavens could withstand the reckless strikes from the Ao Family!
So he had to be extremely cautious. The slightest mistake could cost him his life on this escape route!
Even so, after fleeing for three and a half months, Ao Xieyun felt utterly exhausted! His body bore over thirty wounds, both serious and minor, constantly reminding him that he could no longer escape! If he continued to run... even if the enemies couldn't catch up, his own body would be done for!
The two throne experts beside him were also on the brink of exhaustion. If it weren't for their unwavering determination to protect their young master, they would have likely collapsed long ago!
Both of them were considered top-tier five-grade throne experts!
This was undoubtedly peak combat power in the Nine Heavens! But... the issue was, how many five-grade throne experts faced an assault from at least seven or eight imperial-level experts every day, being besieged, and not just once or twice!
At the worst, they faced a dozen waves of attacks in a single day! Even an iron man would be worn down to nothing!
"Young master, this time, something big is about to happen." Du Qingyun, a five-grade throne expert of the Ao Family, gasped, his eyes filled with boundless hatred and sorrow.
As a peak five-grade throne expert, when had he ever faced such humiliation? Watching his brothers die one by one at his side while he had to flee like a beaten dog was simply a disgrace!
