"Daoist Friend Nangong, do you really have the heart to watch them die?" Mei Xue was still begging with tears in her eyes. She was pretty to begin with, and her crying made her look even more delicate, making people inevitably feel pity for her.
But Nangong Cheng had suffered a loss before, so no matter how much she cried now, he couldn't feel the slightest bit of pity for her. "Don't think that I don't know what you did to the Extermination Formation. The fact that we're still alive means that we already know everything. You don't have to put on an act in front of us. "
Mei Xue's face stiffened. She was embarrassed that the truth had been exposed.
Nangong Cheng coldly snorted and couldn't be bothered with this despicable person. He called for everyone to continue on their way. The sharp and terrifying cries in the surroundings grew louder and louder, and a sinister wind blew. It was as if something terrifying was rushing over.
The faces of Mei Xue and the rest instantly turned pale. She couldn't be bothered anymore as she stood in front of them, "Daoist Friend Nangong, what happened in the past was my fault. That's right! I used you, but that was my own idea, and it had nothing to do with anyone else. You can leave me to die, but please save the three of them. " She pointed at the three men beside her. "As long as you're willing to let them enter the barrier and wait for the group of black shadows in front to pass, Mei Xue is willing to apologize with her death right now."
When her words fell, not only the few men beside her, even Zhu Yao was stunned. This was illogical! Mary Sue actually learned to sacrifice herself to save others?
"Mei Xue, you can't! So what if we die? "One of the green-clothed men retorted.
"That's right!" Number Two replied. "As long as I can be with you, I don't mind dying now."
"Even if we die, we will die together." Another man immediately expressed his stance.
The scene instantly became emotional, but Mei Xue shook her head heavily, and even the tears that had not dried up fell down. The scene was very sad. "No! I can't implicate you. It's my fault, let me bear it alone! Fellow Daoist Nangong, please save them. "
"…" Nangong Cheng hesitated for a moment. He didn't expect that Mei Xue would die for the others.
"Meixue!" The three men still wanted to stop her, but Mei Xue suddenly pushed them away. She took out a long sword from somewhere and looked at Nangong Cheng with a resolute expression. "Daoist Nangong, please keep your word."
As he spoke, he placed the sword on his neck and was about to slit his own throat.
"Hey hey, what are you doing!" Holy shit, he didn't agree! Nangong Cheng was taken aback. Instinctively, he reached out to stop her.
Zhu Yao's heart sank. "Wait a minute, Nangong Huang!"
Unfortunately, he was still a step too late. His hand had already reached out of the barrier, and the barrier opened up. Almost in an instant, the situation reversed. The three people who were pushed away by Mei Xue just now swarmed up to restrain Nangong Cheng, and Mei Xue's sword, which she had originally intended to slit her own throat, stopped. At this moment, it was already on Nangong Cheng's neck, and the barrier instantly disappeared.
Holy shit!
"Hahahaha …" Mei Xue, who was still incomparably weak earlier, had already changed her expression. She was laughing in an extremely unbridled and arrogant manner. "I never thought that someone as stupid as you would actually be tricked so easily. Serves you all right to die here."
"You vicious woman, let me go." Nangong Cheng was trembling from anger. However, this floor was a forbidden zone for divine arts in the first place, and he was restrained by the three people. He basically couldn't move at all.
"Let go? It wasn't easy for me to lure you in, how can I let you go so easily? "Mei Xue gave him a kick, and then looked at the others." None of you move. Otherwise, I will kill him right now! "The sword in her hand moved, and a streak of blood instantly appeared.
"Nangong!" Zhonggu Lu was trembling from anger. "What's the point of threatening others? If you have the ability, then fight me one-on-one. "
Mei Xue coldly laughed, and ignored him.
Zhu Yao frowned, and took a step forward. "Mei Xue. "Mei Xue, just what are you trying to do?"
"What am I trying to do? "Mei Xue, what else can you do in this upper level?" Mei Xue coldly snorted with a disdainful look. She signaled the man beside her with her eyes, and he immediately understood. He began to search Nangong Cheng's body, and a few moments later, he found the bag that contained the Nascent Divided Pearls.
"Five more."
Mei Xue then nodded in satisfaction. So her goal in the beginning was to snatch the Nascent Divided Pearls. Her begging earlier was all an act.
The four of them supported Nangong Cheng as they retreated to a safe distance. They coldly laughed. "Enjoy your final moments then."
She suddenly moved her sword away, and then fiercely stabbed towards Nangong Cheng's back, directly penetrating his chest. Pulling out her sword, she sent him flying towards them. "Let's go!" The few of them turned around and fled forward.
"Nangong!" Zhonggu Lu hurriedly caught the injured Nangong Cheng.
However, Mei Xue and the others were already nowhere to be seen. However, that sword was extremely ruthless, and Nangong Cheng's chest was already dyed red. If it was in the past, this bit of injury wouldn't be much. However, divine arts couldn't be used here. Even if he had a divine physique, he wouldn't be able to hold on if he continued to bleed like this.
Zhu Yao squatted down and grabbed onto his wrist. As expected, the loss of blood was severe.
"Dongfang girly …" Nangong Cheng wished he could smash his head into a wall and die. "It's all my fault! I fell for that bitch's scheme again, and even my Nascent Divided Pearls are … "
"Forget it, there's no point in saying these things now." Zhu Yao was a little frustrated. Earlier, Nangong Cheng's actions were completely subconscious. No one would have thought that Mei Xue had the intention to snatch the Nascent Divided Pearls in the first place. She could only blame herself for being stupid. Mei Xue was a ruthless character in the first place, so how could she come begging to her doorstep like this? Zhu Yao should have realized it long ago.
Initially, there were five men by Mei Xue's side, and now, there were only three left. Just by thinking about it, it was obvious what had happened. A woman who could even make use of her own people, what else couldn't she do?
"Dongfang girly is right. Now isn't the time to pursue responsibility." Zhonggu Lu was extremely anxious as well. Looking at the unstoppable bleeding on his chest, even his hands were trembling a little. "It's best if you think of a way to stop your bleeding. If this continues, it'll be troublesome!"
"There's more than one trouble right now!" Yu Yan suddenly said coldly.
With a twist of his hand, that Life Lightning Sword had already appeared in his hands. Raising his head, he looked towards the distance in front of him and solemnly said. "They're here!"
The moment his words fell, a large wave of sharp and terrifying sounds transmitted into their ears, causing them to unconsciously feel a chill from the depths of their hearts. It was those man-eating shadows.
Zhu Yao immediately took out that red "patched" weapon as well. Fortunately, this was her Life Weapon, and could be considered as a part of her body. She did not need to use a divine art to activate it. However, the effects of the sword would be greatly reduced. It could no longer be considered a divine artifact, and was merely a regular weapon.
"But Nangong, he …" Zhonggu Lu grew even more flustered.
Zhu Yao clenched her fists, and then turned to look at the person behind her. "Yue Ying. Can you help him stop the bleeding? "
Yue Ying did not hesitate. He simply took a step forward and flung his sleeves at Nangong Cheng, and the bleeding on his chest stopped.
"This is …" Zhonggu Lu was completely dumbfounded. He looked at Yue Ying as though he had seen a ghost. "You … Could it be that your divine arts weren't sealed?"
"There's no time to explain. Those shadows are coming." Zhu Yao turned to look in front of her. She gripped the sword in her hand tightly, and followed beside her master.
Zhonggu Lu understood that this was not the time to ask questions. Even Nangong Cheng took a deep breath and struggled to stand up.
A moment later.
With a 'ding dong' sound, something fell from the front. It rolled a few rounds on the ground, and then shattered with a few cracks. That was actually a Nascent Divided Pearl that had already been used up. Zhu Yao instantly understood why Mei Xue still had the time to put on an act for so long even though she was clearly being chased by those shadows earlier.
They had most likely placed this Nascent Divided Pearl here a long time ago to block those shadows that were everywhere outside, so as to buy time for them to put on an act. Most likely, they did not realize it earlier as well. They walked into the barrier. This Nascent Divided Pearl could not last for long in the first place, and it had already reached its limit.
The instant the Nascent Divided Pearl shattered, the shadows that blotted out the skies and covered the earth wildly pounced towards them. Their sharp and ear-piercing cries were so deafening that they felt pain in their ears. There were dancing shadows everywhere, and occasionally, human faces would appear in the shadows as well. However, every single one of them was more sinister and terrifying than the last. Even when those shadows flew past, they brought along a bone-piercing chill. It was as though they could freeze people to death.
Those shadows seemed to have a goal in mind. Some charged towards her master, some charged towards Nangong Cheng, and some charged towards Zhonggu Lu. There were even more that charged towards Yue Ying, except for her!
"…"
Zhu Yao was a little stunned. She looked at the waves of shadows that were charging towards the few people beside her, yet all of them perfectly dodged her. Not a single one actually turned to look at her. Not a single one!
What was going on? Was it another cheat given to her by Realmspirit? But ever since she entered the tower, she did not receive any special treatment. There wasn't any special treatment, and even the World Favorability seemed to have lost its effect.
"Master …" She looked at the person next to her strangely.
"Mn?" Yu Yan swung his sword at the few shadows in front of him, and turned to look at her.
Before Zhu Yao could explain, another shadow took the opportunity to attack Yu Yan's back. "Master, be careful!" Zhu Yao immediately slashed with her sword, and that shadow was instantly dispersed. However, the smoke did not disperse, and in the next moment, it began to gather again. Not even a moment later, it once again gathered into a ball, and a human face instantly appeared. It was the face of an elderly man, with a long beard and white hair. He looked extremely amiable, and he looked a little familiar.
In an instant, that face turned sinister. With a sharp cry, it pounced towards her. Zhu Yao swung her sword sideways, and once again scattered it.
As expected, in less than seven minutes, that shadow once again returned to its original form. And Zhu Yao seemed to have accidentally pulled its aggro, as this shadow began to change its target and attack her.
Zhu Yao was not a physical practitioner, and her sword arts were not strengthened by divine arts, so it could only be considered average. However, it was still more than enough to deal with a single shadow. However, this wasn't a solution. This thing could infinitely reform, and it was impossible to kill them all. She had to find a way.
Zhu Yao observed her surroundings for a moment, and was shocked by the person behind her.
"Yue Ying!" He was actually standing in the middle of the layers of shadows in a daze!
Without even thinking, Zhu Yao charged over. With a few slashes, she slashed apart a few shadows surrounding him, instantly pulling a huge pile of aggro.
In an instant, a large wave of shadows flew towards her uniformly.
Uh … She seemed to have gone OT. (To be continued.)
