"Why is there suddenly a white spot in my eye?" Bai Tang blinked hard, trying to clear his vision. When he finally opened his eyes, he was shocked to find a vast expanse of white, as if shrouded in a thick white mist. The intense light had caused a temporary white cataract in his eyes, making it difficult for him to regain normal vision.

At this moment, Da Fei beside him blurted out: "Could it be the pupil technique of the Eye Sect? Is it as powerful as the one performed by Zhong Wuyan?"

However, Xiaoqing quickly shook her head and denied it, "No, this isn't some mysterious eye technique. It's simply the intense light that caused us temporary blindness." Despite Bai Xinyu's presence blocking her view, Xiaoqing was still somewhat affected by the light. She felt a slight soreness and dryness in her eyes, but thankfully, she didn't experience the obvious cataract symptoms that Bai Tang had.

After a short period of adjustment, Xiaoqing's vision gradually began to recover. Suddenly, she caught a glimpse of the two cats sneaking around behind Wu Song. The situation was very critical! So, she hurriedly shouted, "Wu Song, watch your back!"

Hearing Xiaoqing's warning, Wu Song instantly became alert. At this time, everyone also noticed this powerful white light. Even the two economically ignorant cats who were claiming compensation were amazed that the different paces were so wonderful.

"As expected of a master of Bu Zong, he can even use his footwork to dodge attacks by listening to sounds." As she spoke, Xiao Qing waved her long sleeves without hesitation and shot towards Wu Song's back like a spirit snake.

Although Wu Song couldn't avoid the bright light and was temporarily blinded, his ears still worked well. The sound of a sleeve piercing the air alerted Wu Song to an incoming attack, and he quickly crouched down. Xiaoqing's sleeve grazed Wu Song's scalp and struck where the two cats stood. Although it had clearly hit, the sensation from the sleeve was unsubstantial. A closer look revealed it was merely an afterimage.

"What a fast speed!" Bai Xinyu had been observing the two cats with the Eye Sect's rhythmic power, and found that the two cats only moved at the moment before the sleeves touched their bodies.

Bai Xinyu stared fiercely at the two people not far ahead, and shouted softly, "White Tiger Claws, break the wind!" With a thought, he instantly produced a pair of white tiger claws emitting a cold light from the system space. These white tiger claws were powerful and sharp, as if they could easily tear through anything in the world.

Immediately afterwards, Bai Xinyu flashed forward like a ghost, wielding the White Tiger Claw in his hand. Three sharp claw shadows whizzed out with the sound of breaking through the air. The claw shadows were so fast that they seemed to teleport, and in the blink of an eye, they were in front of the two people.

Faced with such a swift attack, the two men's faces paled, and they scrambled to the sides. However, despite their quick reactions, the powerful blades of the White Tiger Claws still mercilessly slashed through their bodies. With a few crisp "swish" sounds, their outer robes were instantly torn apart, shattering into pieces that flew through the air. Furthermore, their arms were not spared, leaving scars of varying depths and shapes, and blood gushed from them, a horrifying sight.

The two cats glanced at each other, their eyes flashing with fear. Knowing the situation was critical, they dared not hesitate any longer. They quickly raised their hands and pulled out two diamond-shaped crystals from their clothes. These two diamond-shaped crystals shone with a mysterious light, as if they contained endless power.

Without hesitation, they embedded the diamond-shaped crystals into their anklets. Instantly, a powerful wave of energy surged from the anklets, rapidly spreading throughout their bodies. Their originally weak rhyme power suddenly increased. However, surprisingly, despite this increase in strength, they chose not to attack Bai Xinyu. Instead, they turned and rushed out the door.

"I'll chase them out and investigate! Before I leave, I'll cast a barrier around this house. You stay here for now and don't go out!" Before Bai Xinyu finished her words, her hands danced rapidly. Brilliant rays of light intertwined, forming a solid barrier that enveloped the entire house. With this complete, she flashed out of the house like an arrow, closely pursuing the two fleeing men.

By the time Bai Xinyu rushed out, the two had vanished without a trace. But thanks to the system's blessing, Bai Xinyu Yan Zhongming had reached the level of a sect leader. With her keen perception and unique tracking skills, she never let the two escape her sight. Even as a terrifying, sky-blackening black storm raged outside, with howling winds and whirling sand and rocks, these harsh conditions did not slow Bai Xinyu's pursuit. Like a nimble cheetah, she darted through the darkness and storm, determined to track the two men.

After a long, relentless pursuit, Bai Xinyu suddenly sensed something was amiss. A fierce wind, swirling with dust and sand, whipped up a hazy, yellow curtain, blurring her vision. Worse still, the violent sandstorm had completely obscured the traces left by the two men ahead, as if they had never existed.

Bai Xinyu refused to give up. She stared wide-eyed, carefully exploring every corner, hoping to find even the slightest clue. However, no matter how hard she tried, she ultimately found nothing. Helplessly, she could only gently shake her head, turn around, and slowly move towards the inn.

However, Bai Xinyu didn't know that two figures had quietly stood up about two meters ahead of where she had just stood. They looked extremely disheveled, completely different from the glamorous and high-spirited appearance they had when they first entered the inn.

As the sisters desperately fled, they gradually realized that if they continued running blindly, they would sooner or later be caught up by the pursuers. So, after a brief discussion, they decided to take the risk and hide themselves in the vast desert, silently praying that the severe wind and sand weather would help them completely bury their breath and avoid this terrifying pursuit.

"It's you...it's really you!"

Just as Bai Xinyu hurried back to the inn's entrance, she suddenly stopped, her gaze fixed on a familiar yet unfamiliar figure not far ahead. Shopkeeper Pan stood alone, tightly holding a large, dark gray cat. His eyes were fixed on the distance, as the slowly approaching figure grew clearer and clearer.

Shopkeeper Pan's eyes first flashed with disbelief, as if he couldn't believe what he was seeing was real. Then, a wave of longing washed over him, his eyes instantly moist. Over the years, he'd missed that person constantly, meeting them countless times in his dreams, only to wake up feeling only endless loss and loneliness.

Yet, when he finally saw the figure he had longed for, besides joy and excitement, a sense of indescribable grievance welled up in his heart. The pain and suffering he had endured alone, the worries and concerns he had no one to share, all turned into tears at this moment, blurring his vision.
