Urban Immortal Cultivation Supreme

Chapter 957: The Best Method



The branches and leaves of the trees here are excessively lush, making it impossible to find Long Feiyun escaping atop the trees so quickly.

Undoubtedly, Long Feiyun succeeded with his move. He sporadically emitted flashes of dark energy to confuse the sight and hearing of the five men, while he himself stealthily returned to the ground after escaping a certain distance. Although he escaped from the treetops, it didn't mean the treetops were safe; on the contrary, it was the most exposed place. Long Feiyun chose to escape upward out of desperation. It was an unexpected move that left the five men unprepared to pursue him atop the trees, but by the time they reacted, Long Feiyun had already returned to the ground.

Long Feiyun lurked on the ground, observing the actions of the five men while keeping an eye on the surrounding situation. He didn't intend to launch a surprise attack on the five people, as their coordinated actions clearly showed their extreme mutual understanding. If one were alerted, Long Feiyun would face a torrential attack. Thus, he wisely chose to observe from the shadows.

Hiding in the shadows, waiting for the opportunity to strike or escape, is the tactic Long Feiyun excels in the most.

The five men couldn't find Long Feiyun on the treetops and realized he had returned to the ground. This made them somewhat troubled. Facing an outright enemy was straightforward for them, but finding someone was practically daydream for them. Although they weren't skilled at tracking, they had their own methods. The apparent leader waved his hand, and the five of them dispersed, certain that Long Feiyun hadn't run far. If Long Feiyun immediately fled frantically upon returning to the ground, they'd definitely detect him. So, the five were confident that he was nearby. Due to their lack of tracking skills, they opted for the simplest method: dispersing and conducting a thorough search.

Their method, while simple, was very clever, but Long Feiyun was just as cunning. Seeing their movements, he quickly grasped their intentions, and as one of them passed by, he quietly followed behind him. Long Feiyun's concealment technique was indeed exceptional; he followed closely behind without being detected. When the man stopped, Long Feiyun swiftly rolled away to hide.

Avoiding that man, Long Feiyun quickly concealed himself again. His heart was racing, and even his breathing was slightly erratic. Thinking about his audacious move made him feel proud. A little more caution from the man would've easily exposed Long Feiyun, who was following closely. Within that short distance, if discovered, Long Feiyun would've had no chance to dodge and would have been killed by the man. Now, Long Feiyun only needed to calm his breath and go find Xiao Ruo. In terms of concealment, Long Feiyun surpassed Xiao Ruo by far.

The five tall men began a thorough search of the ground, destroying any place that could serve as a hiding spot. As a result, the forest echoed with constant rumblings. Long Feiyun watched in amazed silence as the five men rampaged, a smirk forming on his lips before he disappeared into the forest to find Xiao Ruo.

Xiao Ruo moved cautiously, avoiding alerting hidden enemies. These invisible foes troubled him greatly. He'd prefer battling ten Tiger Team members over facing these stealthy enemies. But the current situation left him no choice; he had to move carefully and silently, even breathing slowly, fearing his breath might attract enemies.

A bird chirping urgently overhead startled Xiao Ruo, prompting him to roll urgently. Three black stones embedded where he hid moments ago. The attack hadn't ended; if Xiao Ruo was discovered, it would lead to more attacks from others.

Dark energy rained like a storm. Watching the approaching dark energy made Xiao Ruo dizzy, as he swung his dagger while sprinting between trees. The rapid thudding noises were sharp and alarming, causing Xiao Ruo's skin to crawl. If struck by these, he'd be riddled like a beehive. Despite these thoughts, his movements stayed swift and precise. Slowing down meant being trapped and ultimately riddled like a beehive.

He ran, dodging incoming waves of dark energy. Suddenly, a shadow leapt from a bush and tackled Xiao Ruo to the ground. Quick to react, Xiao Ruo's dagger pressed against the attacker's back. Hearing the words: "It's me," Xiao Ruo instantly stopped attacking, allowing the shadow to lead him into another bush.

The shadow was Long Feiyun. Besides stealth assassination, Dragon Team people excel at tracking, enabling Long Feiyun to follow faint trails in dense forests to locate Xiao Ruo. After leading Xiao Ruo into a bush, Long Feiyun moved them to a safer hiding spot. The area wasn't secure, as Xiao Ruo's pursuers likely knew of nearby hiding spots.

Just as Long Feiyun and Xiao Ruo left, countless dark energy ravaged the bush, leaving it in ruins. Long Feiyun's stealthy movement speed was astonishing, unlike normal escaping speed, likely due to the environment. Struggling to keep pace, Xiao Ruo persevered, fearing being detected if he stopped.

They continued fleeing desperately through the forest.

A young man wearing a white mask, roughly 180 cm tall, stood on a tree observing the forest, with the five men who pursued Long Feiyun behind him, speaking softly: "Didn't expect those two to be such escape artists. Have the others arrived?" he asked at last.

"Yes," grunted one respectfully.

"Good. Let's wait. Things will get interesting soon." His eyes flickered with delight, as if truly anticipating fun.

"How are they?" A red-clad woman appeared beside the young man, her face masked red.

"Quite well," he nodded, motioning the woman to observe below.

"Not bad," she laughed joyously, sounding cheerful, "Looks like Dragon Team found a capable person this time."

"Indeed." He seemed excited, restlessly moving.

She gave a look of scorn: "Can't you be calm? Long Feiyun isn't tough." The woman knew Long Feiyun.

"I'm watching Xiao Ruo." His tone suppressed, seemingly controlling his emotions.

"Real battle maniac," she remarked with another scornful look, casually sitting on the trunk, watching the chaos below.

Neither fleeing Long Feiyun nor Xiao Ruo had time for spectators in the trees. They continued escaping frantically. Constant recalculations left Long Feiyun frustrated, as enemies always anticipated his routes. Despite this, he persisted, defense left to Xiao Ruo, whose abilities Long Feiyun trusted.

"Here," Long Feiyun suddenly whispered, veering left, pulling Xiao Ruo aside. They entered a narrow passage, barely fitting, and retraced their steps quietly. Their rapid breathing forcibly stifled.

"Someone's on the left," Xiao Ruo alerted, releasing his Qi upon entering the passage, finding the nearest enemy. Long Feiyun nodded, signaling comprehension, swiftly neutralizing the target.

Returning quickly, Long Feiyun led Xiao Ruo forward. Soon, a hard thud sounded; a black stone embedded near Long Feiyun's foot. They paused.

Ultimately discovered.
