Hu Qi had no idea as he left the area.
By some stroke of luck, his use of the Taiqing Immortal Slaying Sword Technique had caused the Food Master to make a grave misjudgment.
And out of an abundance of caution, it had given up the chase.
...
In the gray expanse of the sky, the falcon that Hu Qi had transformed into streaked through the clouds like a thin black line. Its speed was so immense that the tips of its wings cut through the air, creating two trailing white plumes of vapor.
Hu Qi was now rushing back toward the passage he had come from, not daring to linger a moment longer.
Killing those Middle Black Blood Species, along with Changzhu and Wu Yu, hadn't taken much time.
But he had no idea how fast the Food Master was or when it might arrive.
For now, the only option was to leave this place first.
When Hu Qi arrived back at the rippling, turquoise lake, he saw from high above three figures like black dots converging on the spot from different directions.
