 Yang Dingtian frantically urged the Golden Lion Vulture he was riding on.

Fly, fly, fly, fly at your fastest speed!

Yang Dingtian wasn't safe yet. As long as the people from the Temple of Blood discovered Dugu Fengwu, Yang Dingtian would be seen through. Hence, pursuers might come at any moment, and it was almost for certain. Yang Dingtian had to make full use of the precious time he had now and fly as far as he could.

As long as he could fly out of the influence range of the Temple of Blood and enter the Land of Chaos, he wouldn't need to fear them anymore. Because the Land of Chaos was a place that was mixed with people of all kinds. Furthermore, as the Temple of Blood was from the Evil Dao, they wouldn't dare to just brazenly enter the Land of Chaos with a large scale army.

Yang Dingtian was driving the Golden Lion Vulture to fly with crazy speed.

After flying over the Rapture River, there were still no pursuers yet.

After flying past the 500 kilometers influence radius of the Temple of Blood and seeing that there were still no pursuers, Yang Dingtian's tensed up heart finally relaxed gradually.

After flying past the uninhabited ruins, there were still no pursuers.

A pity that the Golden Lion Vulture's speed was far inferior to a gigantic Bloodthirsty Bat.

Finally, after flying a six hours flight and traveling more than 1000 kilometers, Yang Dingtian finally broke away from the influence range of the Temple of Blood.

After another two more hours of flight, he finally past by the 500 kilometers Netherworld Swamp.

Finally, Yang Dingtian had entered the neutral zone, the Land of Chaos. After reaching this place, it was basically safe and as long as Yang Dingtian disguised himself, he would be able to blend into the densely packed mixed individuals.

Yang Dingtian let out a breath of relief, but he found it a little weird. Why weren't there any pursuers? Could they not have found the Dugu sisters? Or perhaps, Dugu Aoshuang had been staying silent, and trying to cover up for him? Otherwise, there must be some pursuers. It was truly strange.

But, Yang Dingtian didn't have so much time to consider all of that. It was already a great blessing to be able to escape.

Once Yang Dingtian entered the Land of Chaos, he must descend because it was too chaotic there. It was too prominent to be flying in the air and he might be shot down at any moment.

Of course, there were heaven-defying experts, like Dugu Fengwu, who could fly wherever they like openly.

This was the borders of the Land of Chaos which had lower traffic of humans.

Yang Dingtian was at the southern borders of the Netherworld Swamp and he was looking for a secluded place to land.

Afterward, he immediately knocked the Golden Lion Vulture out and took off Dugu Fengwu's eye-catching clothes and mask. He took out a

Immediately after, Yang Dingtian used the fastest speed he could to hurry over to a reed thicket at the south side of the Netherworld Swamp. This was where he arranged to rendezvous with the brothers of the Black Blood Cavalry. Because during the return trip to Cloud Heaven City, Yang Dingtian would require the ten Black Black Cavalry brothers to escort him. Furthermore, Yang Dingtian was very worried about their safety.

But when Yang Dingtian arrived at the agreed location, he couldn't see the figures of the ten brothers. In addition to it, there were even bloodstains in the reed thicket, but there weren't any signs of intense battle.

It seemed like even the high cultivation Black Blood Cavalry experts didn't even have time to fight back.

There was a jump in Yang Dingtian's heart. What happened? Could the Black Blood Cavalry brothers have encountered Dugu Fengwu?

After searching the vicinity, he still couldn't find any traces of the ten brothers.

Yang Dingtian was unwilling to resign to this fate and searched around in a frenzy again.

But after searching for two hours, there were still no clues. No messages, no hidden signs, not even half a warhorse in sight.

Ten Black Blood Cavalry brothers vanished into thin air and without any trace.

Yang Dingtian felt sad in his heart, but he didn't have so much time to delay.

Right now, there were less than 40 hours before the duel with Qin Shaobai. This place was at least 2000 kilometers away from Cloud Heaven City.

Yang Dingtian was in trouble now. Without the escorts from the ten experts of the Black Blood Cavalry, Yang Dingtian wouldn't be able to make it back to Cloud Heaven City by himself within the limited time.

The Land of Chaos was truly too chaotic.

After searching for another hour, Yang Dingtian still couldn't find any shadows of the Black Blood Cavalry brothers.

He couldn't delay it anymore. Moreover, the pursuers from the Temple of Blood might come at any time.

Yang Dingtian had to give up for now and send someone to search for the brothers in the future.

Yang Dingtian used the fastest speed to run out of this uninhabited area of the Netherworld Swamp. After spending two hours, he arrived at a town.

Right now, there was still 35 hours before the duel with Qin Shaobai.

35 hours to travel about 2000 kilometers.

Yang Dingtian was by himself and if he kept on changing to a good riding beast, there might be a chance. But Yang Dingtian was by himself on the road and there would most certainly be stumbling blocks. The Land of Chaos was a very dangerous place and the possibility for Yang Dingtian to smoothly travel the 2000 kilometers without any obstructions was definitely zero.

Then, should he look for a mercenary group to escort him?

Let alone the fact that the mercenary groups in the Land of Chaos were all shady and ruthless. They murdered and plundered as though it was their daily tasks. Even if they were to complete this escort normally, it was still impossible for them to travel over 2000 kilometers in 35 hours.

From the looks of it, Yang Dingtian seemed to be at wit's end.

“Master, I truly don't want to look for them. But it seems like I still have to go look for them,” Yang Dingtian sighed in his heart.

He truly didn't want to look for that influential force, but with the current circumstances, he had no other choice.

Thus, Yang Dingtian found an unremarkable restaurant in the town. On the outside of the restaurant, there was a painting of a strange animal, which had the feet of a deer, the body of a snake, the legs of a lion and the talons of a phoenix.

This place was the secret hideout of the Heaven Dao Union and the hideout belonged to the Ying Yang Sect. Inside the hideout, there were plenty of experts and there was the fastest land moving beasts, which could travel more than 1000 kilometers in a single day.

There certainly going to be Heaven Dao Union's hideouts located in the Land of Chaos. These hideouts served as an information center for the various prestigious sects.

Anyone would be able to obtain help from these Heaven Dao Union hideouts if they had the correct code word. They would not ask for any reasons or conditions, as long as you could say the secret passwords and the code words. All these secret passwords and code words were set by the Ying Yang Sect. It was needless to say that because of Dongfang Niemie, Yang Dingtian knew the code words for every Yin Yang Sect's hideout.

If he wasn't compelled by circumstances, Yang Dingtian really didn't want to borrow any influential power from the Yin Yang Sect.

After taking a deep breath, Yang Dingtian walked into the Yin Yang Sect's hideout and spoke to the shopkeeper, “Give me a bird fish from the eastern Cloud Province. Prepare an underground room for me without any windows or openings, but all the sunlight must be able to shine in.”

The shopkeeper's brows shook a little and replied, “Follow me!”

Afterward, Yang Dingtian followed the shopkeeper into the secret room in the basement.

“What do you need?” After entering the secret room, the shopkeeper didn't ask any questions and immediately asked about the request.

Yang Dingtian said, “Five experts above the Martial Mystic class for protection and at least one Martial Ancestor class expert. The fastest land travel beast and an escort to the Cloud Heaven City.”

“Okay, please wait a moment!” The shopkeeper immediately walked out of the secret room.

At this moment, there were still 34 hours before the deathmatch with Qin Shaobai.

…

Over ten minutes later, Yang Dingtian was riding on the fastest land beast and under the protection of eight experts, while galloping towards Cloud Heaven City. This was the fastest land travel beast on the continent and it could travel 100 kilometers in an hour. Of the eight experts, five of them were Martial Mystic class and three of them were Martial Ancestor class.

This team might not be the strongest in the Land of Chaos, but without any rare treasures, no one in the Land of Chaos was willing to provoke such a team because they would suffer losses for nothing.

…

Without eating or drinking and without any sleep or rest.

Yang Dingtian made haste in a frenzy. He toiled away for long hours and galloped at full speed.

After thirty-four hours, Yang Dingtian had traveled over 2000 kilometers!

In front of him was a large river, which was considered to be the end of the Land of Chaos. On the other side of this large river was under the influence range of the Cloud Heaven City.

A few days ago, Yang Dingtian had crossed over the river and entered the Land of Chaos. He went on a treacherous journey and had a narrow escape. Ultimately, his efforts weren't in vain and he had successfully broken through in the Blood Pool.

But when he recalled about the experiences during this period of time, Yang Dingtian let out a long sigh. Despite all the things only happening a few days ago, too many things had happened during this period of time. It was too shocking, hence it felt as though it was a few years.

Looking at the vaguely visible Cloud Heaven City, Yang Dingtian gritted his teeth and said, “Qin Shaobai. I have done everything just for you. Wait for me and I will fight with you till death!”

“Cross the river!” Yang Dingtian stroked the beast and galloped across the stone bright to enter the Cloud Heaven City's territory.

Right at this moment, the two suns were almost in the middle of the sky.

Once the suns were in the middle, it was the moment for the deathmatch. There were less than two hours for the time limit.

And there were only slightly more than 50 kilometers to Cloud Heaven City.

Right now in Cloud Heaven City, the tide of people was surging and more than ten thousand individuals were gathered around the dueling ground. This dueling ground was arranged on the largest plaza in the Cloud Heaven City.

Everyone was looking at the twin suns in the sky and waiting for the final moment to arrive or for Yang Dingtian to arrive.

Qin Shaobai was wearing clothes that were whiter than snow. He stood on the high platform and looked extremely dashing.

Ximen Yanyan was standing in the center of the highest platform, while her beautiful eyes were looking towards the east. She had mixed feelings about whether she wished for Yang Dingtian to appear or not.

Madam Ximen's gorgeous eyes were red and swollen and her face was haggard. It was obvious that the rumors and defamation had brought her grave suffering.

Ximen Ningning looked towards the east restlessly and muttered to herself, “Xiao Tian, sister really hope that you don't come.”

Ximen Lie also looked to the east and said, “Yang Dingtian, I wish that you can arrive on time, but I also wish that you do not arrive on time.”

The plaza was filled with people. There were members of Cloud Heaven City and also the influential people of the Cloud Heaven City territories.

This time, the plaza had even more spectators than the elimination battle previously. Not only did the entire Cloud Heaven City turn out in full strength, even the major and minor influential forces within the territories were also all here.

Ximen Lie even brought nearly a thousand Black Blood Cavalry and they were all seated neatly in the corner of the plaza. They all remained silent but had a formidable qi presence.

Everyone knew that this battle was going to decide a lot of things.

Everyone was whispering to each other.

“If Yang Dingtian's previous breakthrough was entirely reliant on Madam Ximen, then he will certainly refuse to show up today!”

“That's right. If it is true, who knows which corner of the world he escaped to?'

“But, if he shows up and defeats Qin Shaobai, it means that his breakthrough is reliant on his own heaven defying talents. The matter between him and Madam Ximen will all be rumors.”

“That's right. If Yang Dingtian is able to defeat Qin Shaobai this time, no matter who tells me a rumor about Yang Dingtian in the future, I will never believe it!”

“Yeah! If Yang Dingtian can defeat Qin Shaobai, then I am determined to have him as the new Cloud Heaven City Lord.”

Countless individuals were having discussions!

Apart from the people that were close to Yang Dingtian, everyone was looking forward to Yang Dingtian's arrival.

Yang Yan walked over to Qin Shaobai and spoke indifferently, “I have sent out hundreds of men. No one has any information pertaining to Yang Dingtian.”

“Don't worry, he will be here. He is a fool,” Qin Shaobai let out a faint smile.

“It will be best if he comes. Everything shall be settled at one go and there will not be any future threats.” Yang Yan said, “Yang Dingtian has astounding talents and if he was truly given one and a half years, you surely aren't going to be his opponent in the City Lord Decision Tournament.”

After hearing this statement, Qin Shaobai's expression was gloomy for a moment before he sneered and said, “But he will not live for a year and a half. It is enough for me to be stronger than him now. Even if he is to break through two or three classes, he is still going to die. He doesn't even know how much strength I am concealing.”

Yang Yan let out a faint laugh and said, “Which is why in the duel later, you have to instantly kill him. This will give a shocking effect to all the members of the Cloud Heaven City. Understand?”

“Don't worry!” Qin Shaobai said dully, “He will die in three moves at most!”

…

Eight experts from the Heaven Dao Union were protecting Yang Dingtian and rushing across the spacious stone bridge in an arrow formation.

The stone bridge was 300 meters long and 20 meters wide. It is currently empty and spacious, allowing the nine of them to shuttle through quickly.

In front of them was the extremely tall and imposing Cloud Heaven City, which was already vaguely visible from the distance!
