With the help of the Armillary Sphere Rope, Cui Shuhua's celestial figure floated and safely passed through the 'Rock Knife Array'. When she took a breath again, she was already at a distance of seventy-nine thousand feet.
Zhao Yun was secretly impressed, "Cui Shuhua's leap is bold and accurate. It shows her courage and confidence."
Cliff Ridge seemed to know that the illusion array test was not difficult for Cui Shuhua and Zhao Yun, so he tactfully did not let the 'Ninth Heaven Mysterious Flame' and 'Purple Lightning Thunder Fire' out to embarrass himself.
After the two of them landed safely, Cui Shuhua placed Zhao Yun on the ground and hurriedly withdrew her hand. She did not want Zhao Yun to see the hand that was scratched by the Armillary Sphere Rope and had bloody scars.
Zhao Yun said, "Doctor Cui Shuhua, quickly treat the wound on your hand. Your hand must be very painful, right? "
Cui Shuhua thought, "He still saw it." She immediately smiled and said, "This small wound is nothing. When we reach the ground, our true Qi can circulate again. After taking a Cloud Victory Pill, it will be as good as new. "
She took the pill and glanced at Zhao Yun with her clear eyes. She said softly, "There is still a distance from here to the carriage. It is inconvenient for you to move, so I will have to support you."
Zhao Yun hurriedly said, "No need, I can walk by myself. Look … "As he spoke, he struggled to stand up, but he felt exhausted. Before he could lift his upper body, he fell down involuntarily. Not even a trace of dust splashed up.
"This …" Zhao Yun smiled awkwardly and tried again, but it was still in vain.
Cui Shuhua said warmly, "Zhao Yun, you can't force yourself too much. Even immortals can't avoid the effects of the Mu Yan Flower. It is already commendable that you can withstand the great pain of meridian transformation without any change in your expression. "
She paused and said in a low voice, "Your body is weak now, so it is not suitable for you to fly in the air. That's why I can't use the Qi Controlling Technique to take you flying. It's not that I'm deliberately avoiding what's near and seeking what's far away. "
Zhao Yun hurriedly said, "I understand. Thank you, Doctor Cui, for your consideration." But in her heart, she thought, "Just now, the situation was urgent. Cui Shuhua could only hug me. But men and women are different, and this isn't a matter of life and death. Even if she didn't say it, I still had to avoid it. When I was in her arms, I couldn't help but have a strange feeling. Even though I knew something was wrong, there were always a few moments where I couldn't help but think of her as Ling Ye Lai. Could it be that because I was defeated by the Evil Young Master this time, I hope to obtain the silent protection and silent comfort of the past? I can't let my imagination run wild anymore. If I lose my composure, I'll be letting down Cui Shuhua for saving my life. "
Cui Shuhua held the faint ripple in her heart, supported Zhao Yun's arm, and slowly walked towards the carriage.
This short mountain road was extremely difficult because of Zhao Yun's weak footsteps. Cui Shuhua was even more regretful in her heart, "If I had known earlier, I would have used the Qi Controlling Technique to bring Zhao Yun over. Walking slowly like this, my heart was in a mess like never before. Zhao Yun is clearly just a patient, but I actually … "
Thinking of this, she bit her lips lightly and stopped herself from thinking too much.
When the two of them arrived at the place where the carriage stopped, they were both dumbfounded. Although Cui Shuhua had carefully left enough fodder for the carriage, the horse seemed to be unable to bear the loneliness. It actually broke free from the reins and ran away without the master's call.
"There's nothing I can do now. I still have to fly."
Cui Shuhua smiled bitterly in her heart, but she was afraid that Zhao Yun wouldn't be able to hold her waist, so she could only form a circle with her arms and fix Zhao Yun's tall body in front of her chest.
The two of them touched each other's bodies. It could be said that they were not strangers, but this time, they were even more shy than the first time. The two of them looked away and didn't say a word. They were like flying clouds and gales, mischievous and teasing each other.
With great difficulty, they finally arrived at Huaguang Town, the closest town to Cliff Ridge. Cui Shuhua felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted off her shoulders. She hurriedly went to the horse market to buy a carriage and carefully helped Zhao Yun into the carriage.
If it was a normal day, the people of Huaguang Town would have looked over curiously when they saw a cultivator flying down from Cliff Ridge. They had lived in this town for generations, but they had never seen a living person returning from Cliff Ridge. According to the old legends, Cliff Ridge was the "Demon Tooth Ridge" that could scare children to tears. It cruelly swallowed every cultivator who coveted it …
However, this time, no one cared about Cui Shuhua and Zhao Yun, the two outsiders. The people in the horse market were even in no mood to do business. Everyone was discussing the intensification of taxes, the spread of the war, and whether Huaguang Town could escape this crisis.
"Ba Dao City attacked with great force, but they were ambushed by the Beast Fortress at Pine Mountain Ridge. 2000 cultivators were killed in an instant!"
"Mount Shu easily took down Skyheart City, but the city was filled with poisonous snakes, scorpions, spiders, and centipedes. The disciples of Mount Shu couldn't sleep well. Speaking of which, those female disciples are really pitiful … "
"The Sin Crusade Alliance is trapped in the Beast Fortress and loses every day. In my opinion, they have nowhere to go and will surrender soon …"
"What do you know! Do you think that they will stop after destroying the Sin Crusade Alliance? Didn't you hear that the Star Sect and the Tangmen had a conflict in the Stone Country? Both sides suffered more than 100 casualties … "
"Why did they conscript the young adults in the town to defend New Cloud City when they were fighting? It's obvious that the Godly Palm Sect is taking the opportunity to accumulate wealth and make everyone do hard work for them! "
All kinds of news that seemed to be true and false, and seemed to be false and true, were constantly passed into Zhao Yun's ears through the fearful and curious mouths of the people, causing him to be shocked again and again.
One day in the mountains was a thousand years in the world. He had been delayed in Cliff Ridge for more than ten days, and the situation in Immortal Grove had already changed dramatically.
Whenever he thought of Luo Yihong and the others holding the fort alone, Zhao Yun's heart couldn't calm down, and he couldn't stay out of it and lie in the carriage.
Zhao Yun struggled to lift his body and pleaded to Cui Shuhua, who was driving the carriage, "Doctor Cui, Zhao Yun owes you many times for saving my life, and it will be difficult for me to repay your kindness in this lifetime. I know that I've gone overboard, and I don't have the face to ask you to do anything, but I really can only beg you to take me to the Beast Fortress. I'm really worried that if we delay any longer … "
"You keep saying that you owe me a favor, but if you lose your life, what will you use to repay me? Or is your so-called repayment just empty words? "Cui Shuhua didn't even turn her head as she asked indifferently.
Zhao Yun's face showed a painful expression, "Doctor Cui, I'm definitely not just saying that I owe you a favor. Heaven and earth can bear witness to this! But I can't stand it when I'm resting at the side while they're fighting with their lives! "
Cui Shuhua said indifferently again, "Even if we really reach the Beast Fortress, what can you do in your current state? Without true energy, you're powerless, and you're at the mercy of the enemy? I'm a doctor, and you're a patient. I won't allow you to joke with your life anymore. Everyone only has one life, and you're no exception. "
Zhao Yun showed a disappointed expression. He really didn't have the qualifications to ask Cui Shuhua to help him, and he also understood that Cui Shuhua was actually thinking about his life.
But how could he sit back and watch Luo Yihong, Hu Qing, Hu Lan, Wang Yue, and even Tian Wuyou and the people from Tian Xiang Temple face the difficulties alone?
He had already trapped Ling Ye Lai in the Lingyun Temple, and he had already caused Haitang Guihua to fall into the Dark Night Island. He couldn't let his beloved suffer any more grievances.
Time waits for no one. The ten great sects joined forces with Ba Dao City, the Unending Sea, and the Hidden Slaughter Road to launch an all-out attack. Perhaps in the next moment, the Beast Fortress would become a ruin, and Luo Yihong and the others would become resentful souls.
Such an outcome was extremely difficult for Zhao Yun to accept. He didn't want to pin his hopes on a fluke. He just wanted to quickly go to everyone's side and fight side by side with them.
Zhao Yun was stunned for a moment. Suddenly, he made up his mind and shouted at Cui Shuhua, "Although I appreciate Doctor Cui's kindness, Zhao Yun is used to acting recklessly. I can only disobey Doctor Cui's teachings again. Doctor Cui, please stop the carriage. I want to find someone else to take me to the Beast Fortress. "
With a generous reward, there would definitely be brave men. Zhao Yun believed that as long as he gave more money and jewelry, there would always be cultivators willing to take him to the Beast Fortress.
Cui Shuhua's whip stopped halfway in the air. He finally reined in the horse, turned his head, lifted the carriage curtain, and looked straight into Zhao Yun's eyes, "You want to go to the Beast Fortress alone? Have you forgotten that without the suppression of my Shadowless Needle, the strange poison of the demon realm in your body will immediately act up? "
"Even if I die from the poison, it's better than doing nothing. What's more, without ensuring Hong 'er's safety and saving Haitang, I'm not willing to die. "
Zhao Yun's eyes had a kind of self-confidence that he knew was foolish but stubbornly defended his arrogance.
After experiencing the test of the cliff, he believed that his will was enough to surpass life and death.
Even if he died, he must fulfill his wish!
Cui Shuhua's eyelashes trembled, "You're not even willing to wait for five days? After five days, your true qi will return to normal, and you will be able to control your qi. You want to find someone to take you to the Beast Fortress, but if he has ulterior motives and brings you to the Ziwei, how will you protect yourself? Your will is unparalleled, but you can't change reality. "
However, he heard Zhao Yun say decisively, "If someone really dares to deceive me like this, even if I don't have the strength, I will make him regret his stupidity!"
"You, why are you so blindly confident … Hey, have you really made up your mind?" Cui Shuhua felt that she was very stupid. She knew that Zhao Yun was unwilling to listen to her advice, but she still tried to persuade him again and again.
This was the benevolence of a doctor, but also the worry of a woman.
No matter what, she really didn't want Zhao Yun to die in vain.
"Hiss!"
