The ice was as white as jade, exuding a cold aura.
Su Qingqing was lying on the ice, her chest rising and falling. Her breathing was normal, but her eyes were closed and she was motionless. She was in a coma.
Chen Nan jumped on the ice and picked her up.
"Girl, girl, wake up."
Chen Nan shook her shoulder hard, but Su Qingqing did not respond at all, as if she did not feel anything.
"Girl, open your eyes and look at me!"
Chen Nan brushed the hair away from her face and looked at the familiar face in front of him. His heart ached. Could it be that her consciousness had already been refined and she would never wake up again?
"No, definitely not!"
Chen Nan shook his head and muttered to himself. He was emotional and kept shaking Su Qingqing's shoulder. "Aren't you the descendant of the Holy Virgin? I believe you are not so weak. Wake up. As long as you wake up, I will be your boyfriend. I will promise you anything."
Two drops of tears fell from Chen Nan's eyes, fell on Su Qingqing's forehead, and then flowed into her eyes.
Chen Nan hugged her tightly and kept talking in her ear, trying to wake her up.
"Ahem …"
Su Qingqing suddenly coughed twice and said with some dissatisfaction, "Idiot, why are you hugging me so tightly? You are strangling me."
Chen Nan quickly let go.
Looking at Su Qingqing, who was blinking her big eyes in front of him, Chen Nan's heart skipped a beat. He could not help but hold her in his arms again. "You are finally awake. You scared me to death."
Su Qingqing smiled.
She put her hands on Chen Nan's back and hugged him. She whispered, "I heard what you said just now."
Chen Nan was stunned for a moment and said, "Well, well, you didn't say anything when you woke up. You made me worried for so long. Tell me honestly, when did you wake up?"
"I didn't do it on purpose."
Su Qingqing let go of his hand and looked at him eagerly. She said innocently, "From the moment you came in and said the first sentence, I woke up, but I couldn't open my eyes or move. My body was out of my control. It was your tear that let me see the light."
"Anyway, it's good that you woke up." Chen Nan took her hand and said, "It's all right. Let's go."
"Wait!"
Su Qingqing pulled him back, looked at him and said, "Then what you said just now, does it still count?"
"What … what did I say?"
Chen Nan felt a little guilty.
"You said that as long as I wake up, you will promise me anything." Su Qingqing looked into his eyes. "You know what I mean to you. You won't go back on your word, will you?"
"This …"
Chen Nan quickly pointed to the entrance of the cave and said, "Let's not talk about this. This place is too dangerous. Let's get out of here first."
"Stupid idiot, you don't admit it again, you … Ah! Why … why are there so many dead people? " Su Qingqing was halfway through her words when she suddenly saw the corpses on the ground. She was so scared that her face turned pale and she screamed.
Chen Nan hugged her and shook his head. "Don't be afraid. They are all evil people who deserve to die."
"You … you just came in and fought with them. You … you killed them?" Su Qingqing looked at him in fear. "You … you killed people. Will the Lei Feng come to arrest you?"
Chen Nan hugged her and felt her body trembling. "Good girl, don't be afraid. These are all evil people. They all deserve to die."
Su Qingqing quickly nodded and said in a panic, "Let's go quickly. Otherwise, it will be over if the Lei Feng comes."
"Okay, let's go."
Chen Nan carried her on his back and strode out. But he smiled bitterly in his heart. In the wilderness of Xijiang, there was no one except for the Imperial Corpse Sect. There was no Lei Feng in a radius of hundreds of miles.
In this Corpse Refining Cave, except for the light in the innermost hall, the passage leading out was dark.
Chen Nan's cultivation was high, so he could see the way clearly. But Su Qingqing couldn't see anything clearly, so she didn't know that the passage was full of corpses.
"Silly Egg, why is there such a strong smell of blood?" she asked in confusion.
Chen Nan smiled and said, "It's okay. Just lie on my back obediently. We'll be out soon."
Su Qingqing nodded obediently. After a moment of silence, she said, "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have disobeyed you and went to see Jiang Haotian."
"Don't mention the past. It's okay as long as you're safe," Chen Nan said.
"Silly Egg, you're so kind."
Su Qingqing lay on his back and hugged him tightly. "They said they would refine me into a corpse. I was so scared. I thought I would never see you again in this life."
The two were already outside the cave. Chen Nan shook his head and said, "It's okay. It's all in the past now."
But as soon as he said that —
Boom!
With a loud bang, a black shadow fell from the sky. It stomped on the ground with a deafening sound, and the ground cracked.
This black shadow was covered in black scales from head to toe, including its face. It exuded a destructive aura, as if it could punch through heaven and earth.
This was a Battle Corpse King!
Moreover, its aura was even more terrifying than the one Chen Nan killed before.
"Chen Nan, you're the only one who can make me summon Battle Corpse King Number One in thousands of years. Today, I will turn you into ashes!" A blue-robed old man flew over and landed beside the Battle Corpse King.
This old man was the sect master of the Imperial Corpse Sect — Jiang Meng. He was Jiang Hai's father and Jiang Haotian's grandfather.
In addition to being skilled in corpse refining, he was also at the Third Firmament of Imperial Dao.
"Kill him!"
Jiang Meng shook his bell and commanded Battle Corpse King Number One to shout at Chen Nan.
Facing Battle Corpse King Number One, which was even stronger than the previous one, Chen Nan didn't even look back. He carried Su Qingqing and ran toward the back of the mountain.
He no longer had the flying dagger and couldn't fight the Battle Corpse King. Running was his only choice.
"Let's see where you can run to!"
Jiang Meng sneered. He kept shaking his bell and commanded Battle Corpse King Number One to give chase.
Chen Nan was only at the Tenth Firmament of Qi Dao, and he was carrying Su Qingqing. If he ran normally, he wouldn't be able to outrun Jiang Meng and the Battle Corpse King. Only the God Slayer's Seven Steps could match them.
However, this consumed a lot of his True Qi. After running for one and a half kilometers, he was panting heavily.
"Dummy, is this monster very powerful?"
Su Qingqing turned around and looked at Battle Corpse King Number One fifty meters behind them.
"It's not just powerful, it's insane!"
Chen Nan replied. He ran with all his might. However, as his True Qi was depleted, the God Slayer's Seven Steps slowed down. The Battle Corpse King was getting closer and closer.
"Roar!"
The Battle Corpse King roared. It was less than thirty meters away from Chen Nan.
It suddenly swung out with its claw, causing peerless Death Energy to shake space to the point of trembling as it swept towards Chen Nan and Su Qingqing.
