"Hua!"
The all-pervasive poisonous liquid turned into rain and fell on Ye Liang's body, sizzling as it began to corrode his body. In the blink of an eye, his body was already badly mutilated, it was truly too miserable.
Ye Liang's mistake was that he was too confident, he thought that he could rely on his sword arts to block Lin Muyu's attack, so he did not use any extra True Qi to reform his Qi Armor. He never thought that Lin Muyu's martial spirit would also have a move like Poisonous Liquid Spray. In an instant, his entire body was covered in poisonous liquid, the surface of his skin quickly corroded, and his originally handsome face had already collapsed into a terrifying appearance.
"I'll kill you! I'll kill you! "
He roared hoarsely, trying to determine the position of the sound. Although he was ambushed, he still had his strength, and his longsword was covered in blazing flames as it smashed down from the sky. Meanwhile, Lin Muyu's breathing was already becoming weaker and weaker, his lungs had been pierced and he was reaching the limit of his physical strength. His legs were like lead, unable to move, and he could not even use Falling Star Steps. He could only raise his longsword with both arms to block this swift and fierce attack.
"Dang!"
A crisp sound rang out, and the steel sword was cut in half. Ye Liang was holding a treasured sword, while Lin Muyu was only holding an excellent longsword used by mercenaries. After the sound of the sword breaking, the fiery red longsword quickly slashed down, "Pu!" Blood splattered, and it directly cut into his shoulder, flesh and blood splattered everywhere. Lin Muyu knelt on one knee, clenched his teeth, and opened his hand to grab the edge of the sword, preventing it from continuing to cut down, or else it would injure his muscles and bones.
"Still not going to die!?"
The corner of Ye Liang's mouth was filled with a sinister smile, and he used his True Qi to forcefully press down on the longsword. However, at this moment, a sudden feeling of dizziness came over him, and he almost could not hold the longsword anymore.
Finally, the Clear Breeze Drunk's medicine took effect!
"What's going on?"
Ye Liang hurriedly shook his head, but the feeling of dizziness became stronger and stronger. He lifted his leg and kicked Lin Muyu's chest, "Peng!" Lin Muyu responded and rolled into the grass.
"I want you dead!"
Ye Liang limped towards Lin Muyu, who was in the bushes. He kept shaking his head. His vision was affected by the Cool Breeze Drunk, and he could barely see anything.
Just at this time, the sound of wind breaking could be heard. "Pa Pa", two silver needles were shot into the acupoints on Ye Liang's chest. Immediately, he was unable to move.
Amidst the flames, Chu Yao sprinted over and abruptly grabbed the longsword in Ye Liang's hand. She turned around and slashed at him!
Kacha!
Blood splattered everywhere. Ye Liang, one of the Seven Martial Saints —
His head fell to the ground!
…
"Yu … Yu …"
Chu Yao rushed over and saw Lin Muyu lying in a pool of blood. She burst into tears and hugged him. "Yu, are you okay? Ah-Yu, quickly say something to Big Sister … "
Lin Muyu slowly opened her eyes. "Ye Liang, he …"
"Dead."
"Good!" The corner of his mouth twitched with difficulty and revealed a smile. He stuttered, "Sister Chu Yao, I can't hold on much longer. Hurry … Hurry up and seal my acupoints with silver needles to stop the bleeding. Then use … use the healing medicine in my pocket to heal my internal injuries. Otherwise, I might really die …"
"Alright!"
Chu Yao immediately put him down and quickly took out her silver needles. She followed the method Qu Chu had left behind and sealed the corresponding acupoints one by one to stop the bleeding. Then, she took out Lin Muyu's first-grade healing medicine and poured it on the wound. However, the arrow that had pierced through Lin Muyu's chest was too serious. It was unknown whether she could survive or not.
For a moment, Chu Yao's heart was in a mess. She hugged Lin Muyu and sobbed in the night sky.
The starlight shone on the mountains. The young man and woman continued to experience life and death, as if there was no end. The devil's claws continued to dance in the night. The justice of this world had already fallen asleep.
…
That night, Chu Yao did not sleep. She had been taking care of the injured Lin Muyu.
In the early hours of the morning, Lin Muyu finally fell into a deep sleep. The wound had stopped bleeding completely. He had refined many first-grade healing medicines before this, but he did not expect that these medicines would actually save his life.
At noon the next day, he slowly woke up and finally opened his eyes.
"Yu …"
As soon as she saw him open his eyes, Chu Yao immediately burst into tears. The fact that he could wake up meant that he could live on.
Lin Muyu lay weakly in the grass. She heaved a sigh of relief and looked at her injuries. Under the effect of the healing medicine, the puncture in her lungs had basically begun to heal. This process took an entire night and so long because she was unconscious. Now that she had woken up, she gathered the True Qi in her body bit by bit and used it to heal herself.
After drinking some meat soup, she finally recovered some strength, and the Martial Soul Gourd was also continuously recovering True Qi to provide for her body. Seeing that Lin Muyu's face was gradually regaining color, Chu Yao finally smiled through her tears.
At night, Lin Muyu could already get up and walk. After all, she was an expert who had stepped into the second heaven of the Earth Realm, so she should have such a strong recovery ability.
In the grass, a long sword with a faint glow of fire lay there quietly. It was Ye Liang's weapon.
"Hmph, it's all because of this!"
Chu Yao said angrily, "If it weren't for this sword, Yu wouldn't have been so seriously injured!"
As she spoke, she picked up the long sword and smashed it on the stone.
Aiyo, this senior sister was really too willful.
Lin Muyu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She hurriedly said, "Don't, Sister Chu Yao. Leave this sword to me. It just happened that my weapon was broken by it. This sword should have some reputation, otherwise it wouldn't be able to break my steel sword in an instant."
"En." Chu Yao handed the long sword to him.
He reached out and gently touched the sword. A faint warmth was transmitted into his fingers. The sword's streamline was very simple and clear, and near the handle was engraved with two words — Prairie Fire. It should be the name of this sword. Lin Muyu thought of the burning flames produced when this sword was swung. It was indeed very suitable for its name. She couldn't help but laugh and said, "Prairie Fire, good name … From now on, this sword belongs to me, right?"
Chu Yao giggled, "It's yours, it's yours. I'll give you anything you want!"
Lin Muyu smiled and said, "I remember when Ye Liang came here, he rode a fine horse. Where did that horse go?"
"I caught it and tied it in the jungle over there."
"Okay, we have a mount. That horse looks very handsome. It should be enough to carry the two of us, right?"
Chu Yao blushed. Thinking of riding with him, she couldn't help but think more, but she still nodded and said, "En, it should be possible. Are we going to ride a horse?"
"Yes, otherwise I really don't know when we can reach Lanyan City."
"En, that's good."
…
They recuperated until dawn the next day. In the middle of the night, a wandering mercenary came, but he only had the strength of a level 27 battle spirit. He was injured by Chu Yao's silver needles, and then killed by Lin Muyu's Demonic Sound Fist. They didn't dare to be careless, but they never spared the life of any mercenary who tried to sneak attack them.
In the morning, after eating their fill, they packed their luggage and hung it on both sides of the fine horse. Chu Yao rode the horse, while Lin Muyu sat in the back with the Burning Prairie Sword hanging on his back. He only had a little bit of everything he had. As for the Treasured Carving Bow, he also left behind. After all, the range of the Demonic Sound Blade was only a few dozen meters, but with enough arm strength, the Treasured Carving Bow could shoot hundreds of steps away!
In this world, riding and archery were both necessary skills for warriors to learn. This had already made Lin Muyu determined to practice archery. Fortunately, he was born with a high comprehension ability, so he learned very quickly through self-study.
After getting a mount, their speed became much faster. They could even gallop on flat terrain. At this speed, they should be able to enter the territory of Lanyan City in about three to five days.
…
Along the way, he still didn't forget to cultivate, and even killed a spirit beast, helping Chu Yao to break through to the level of a level 34 battle master. Lin Muyu's advancement was even faster, and he already had the strength of a level 45 battle elder. Basically, he could easily defeat any opponent with the strength of a level 50 battle saint. After all, his four-layer gourd martial soul had four skills, which was unique in the continent. Many opponents were at a disadvantage because of the martial soul's skills, and they were simply being toyed with.
"Jie jie …"
In the sky, a bird's cry came.
Lin Muyu looked up, it was that goshawk again. After its master died, the goshawk that Ye Liang had tamed had been following him.
Touching the Treasured Carving Bow, he jumped off the horse with killing intent, took out an arrow and nocked it, saying: "Bastard, who told you to follow us again!"
"Whoosh!"
Amidst the sound of a bowstring being released, the goshawk let out a mournful cry as it was shot through. It landed in the distant forest. Lin Muyu found it in a few steps and carried it back. She said with a smile, "Sister Chu Yao, pluck its feathers and cook it at noon. Goshawk meat should be quite delicious."
Chu Yao pursed her lips and smiled: "Okay, okay, okay!"
…
However, at this time, a mournful bird cry suddenly came from the sky, and a grey figure flew over, getting closer and closer.
Chu Yao squinted her beautiful eyes: "That's a falcon, a bird of prey in the sky, it's carnivorous."
Lin Muyu nocked his bow again: "Shoot it down and make two pots of soup!"
"Don't worry."
Chu Yao giggled: "This falcon doesn't seem to be hostile, it should be looking for us. When I was in Silver Fir City, I saw people taming falcons to deliver letters, maybe this is also the case?"
"Oh, is that so?"
Under Lin Muyu's incredulous gaze, the falcon really did quickly land on Chu Yao's arm. It didn't seem to be ferocious, and there was a small bamboo tube tied to its leg. After Chu Yao took it off, she took out a note from the bamboo tube, saying: "Yu, this is for you!"
There was actually someone who would send him a letter through a bird. This was a bit strange, who could it be?
… …
Receiving the note, there were a few lines clearly written on it:
Young hero Lin, I am Lei Baizhan of the Hundred War Trading Company. I know that young hero is in trouble, but I am unable to extricate myself and cannot provide any assistance. However, if young hero is interested, you can find a mercenary group in the Seven Stars Forest's Scorching Wind Mountain area, called "Scorching Wind Mercenaries". The leader is called Lei Qianhai, this humble one's younger twin brother. When Qianhai sees this letter, he will naturally understand his brother's intentions and will protect young hero along the way.
Hope you take care.
… …
Looking at this note, Lin Muyu actually felt a little touched. She and Chu Yao had been fleeing for so many days in the Seven Stars Forest, but had never seen a real "person". This Lei Baizhan and she had only met once, but now he had sent a letter to help, it was really rare.
Merchants could actually be so benevolent and righteous!
