Gu Luo laughed coldly. Then, he suddenly launched an attack, charging at Xiao Chen. At this point, it was useless to say anything. Zhao Lin Er also followed closely behind. Escaping was already proven to be ineffective, the only way to survive was to endure the invasion of the corpse Qi and kill Xiao Chen.
The two swords crossed as they slashed towards Xiao Chen's abdomen. At the same time, the man wielding the Flaming Saber also rushed forward. The blazing saber fiercely slashed towards Xiao Chen's neck.
The sword in Xiao Chen's hand burst forth with a resplendent light as well. He swung it widely, sweeping away the attacks of the three. At the same time, the three skeletons transformed into three streaks of white light and rushed forward to contend against the three experts in front of them.
It was obvious that Zhao Lin Er and Gu Luo's Corpse Qi had weakened their battle prowess by a lot. Even if they joined forces, they were still at a disadvantage.
The sword-qi soared into the sky from the forest. Xiao Chen turned his body around and slashed backwards. A glaring sword-qi burst out and streaked across the nape of Zhao Lin Er's neck. Her fine black hair fluttered in the air. The Imperial Angel's long hair was cut off from her neck. If she was just a bit slower, perhaps her head would have been chopped off!
Zhao Lin Er was so shocked that her whole body was drenched in cold sweat. She, who was born in the royal family, had never experienced this kind of thing before. She was almost sent to the door of death by someone's sword.
Gu Luo was also very fearful. In his opinion, Xiao Chen was incomparably dangerous. He was a person with a heart as firm as iron. Even when facing such a peerless beauty, he didn't show the slightest bit of leniency and ignored her indifferently. What else did he not dare to do? Originally, he had wanted to use great benefits to move Xiao Chen at the crucial moment to negotiate with him. However, he completely dispelled that thought now.
While Gu Luo and Zhao Lin Er were still in shock, the long sword in Xiao Chen's hand had already shattered the Flaming Saber. The incomparably resplendent sword slashed down diagonally and cut off the shoulder of the man who was holding the saber. Blood splashed everywhere, the two halves of the body fell on the bloody ground in the forest.
Seeing Xiao Chen approaching with the iron sword dripping with blood, as well as the three skeletons outflanking them from the rear, Gu Luo's complexion became gloomy. Zhao Lin Er knitted her brows, but she didn't have any countermeasures. It was hard for her beautiful face to maintain her calm and unperturbed expression any longer.
"Alright, everything should come to an end."
Xiao Chen was very calm when he said these words, but it made Gu Luo and Zhao Lin Er feel even more awe-inspiring.
"Woo …"
"Roar …"
At this moment, a shrill cry of an ape came from afar. The terrain here was relatively high, so they could clearly see the shadows of a dozen vigorous beasts flying above the treetops. It was as if they were riding on the clouds. With just a slight touch on the branches and leaves, they would fly eight to nine meters away. They were truly agile to the extreme as they rushed over here at lightning speed!
Zhao Lin Er's complexion changed abruptly, she had already recognized them in an instant, those were dozens of huge apes that had protected Xiao Chen before, and she had killed one of them a few days ago.
This place was not very far from the habitat of the giant apes, and the sound of the battle had alarmed them.
In just a moment, more than a dozen giant apes had rushed to this area. They were about three meters tall, and their bodies were covered with black hair. They looked very terrifying under the moonlight. After they landed, they quickly surrounded Ye Xiwen and the others. They were like huge monoliths.
The four-meter-tall four-armed strange ape in the center had blood-colored fur that flickered with a demonic light under the moonlight. Its eyes emitted two rays of light that were like cold lightning as it stared coldly at Zhao Lin Er.
Xiao Chen called the three skeletons to his side. With the appearance of more than a dozen vengeful apes, perhaps he didn't even need to make a move, the outcome of the battle was already decided.
However, all of a sudden, an extremely glaring radiance burst out in the forest. A large amount of lightning interweaved together and enveloped the dozen odd apes like a huge net. In a flash, other than the crimson ape, all the other giant apes were knocked down by the lightning. Their entire body twitched, and it was difficult for them to budge. Even the crimson ape's footsteps were unstable.
The sudden change made everyone at a loss for a moment. However, just at this time, a snow-white, jade-like little unicorn flickered with a faint radiance. It transformed into a streak of silver radiance and rushed in front of Zhao Lin Er. It carried her far away in a split second.
This unforeseen event was too sudden!
The crimson ape let out a violent roar. It was like a sudden clap of thunder in the moonlit night. Its body emitted a crackling sound as it flickered with electric sparks. It got rid of the paralysis, and then it leaped up as if it had gone mad, and chased after the young unicorn.
After a short moment, the giant apes that were twitching on the ground also recovered. They chased after the unicorn without turning their heads back.
All of this was too sudden!
Only Gu Luo was left standing there alone. However, he didn't reveal any expression of despair. On the contrary, a smile hung on the corner of his mouth.
Xiao Chen had a premonition that the situation was anything but reassuring. He left behind an afterimage on his original spot and rushed forward at high speed. However, he was still a step too late. Gu Luo unfurled a scroll, and it actually carried him into the sky, and floated high in the sky!
"I always thought this was a useless scroll. I didn't expect that I would have to use it to escape today."
When Gu Luo said these words, he was indescribably vexed and angry. He glared at Xiao Chen fiercely.
Xiao Chen asked coldly, "Why didn't you escape earlier?"
"Because it can only carry one person! I guessed that the young unicorn might appear. It was obviously not good to use the scroll to escape by myself too early. Of course, if the young unicorn didn't come, I would naturally escape at the moment of life and death. Heh, didn't everything that happened verify my guess? Isn't it more appropriate to leave now? "
Gu Luo's gaze was malicious as he stared at Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen didn't get angry at all, he only said coldly, "You are playing with fire. Not only at the beginning, but also now!"
Speaking until here, he made a few slashes in the air not far away. A few brilliant rays of light were emitted. They seemed to have transformed into a huge hand in the sky, and swept the long swords beside the corpses into his hand.
After that, he soared into the sky and leaped towards the crown of a huge tree. The distance between him and Gu Luo was quickly shortened.
Gu Luo shouted loudly, "Oh no!". He controlled the flying scroll and rushed towards a distant place as if he was flying. Xiao Chen left behind an afterimage on the tall treetop. Immediately after, he rushed towards the crown of an even taller tree. He stepped on the treetop just like that and transformed into a streak of light as he chased after Gu Luo for several dozen meters. He rushed to the crown of the tallest ancient tree in this area.
The distance between him and Gu Luo was actually shortened by a lot. His body emitted a resplendent radiance, as if it was boiling due to his excessive speed. The radiance throbbed on the surface of his body like a raging inferno! Just at this moment, he ruthlessly threw out the first long sword in his hand!
The long sword was infused with the purest energy by Xiao Chen. It turned the ordinary iron into metal essence. The long sword was like a rainbow as it streaked across the tranquil night sky!
"Pfff!"
A bloody light burst out in the sky, a large amount of blood sprinkled down. Gu Luo let out a mournful scream, the long sword actually pierced through his right arm. Furthermore, it was actually cut off! The severed arm fell down, a rain of blood filled the sky … …
