In the forest, the battle cries in the distance had gradually faded away.
The torches in her hands kept moving up and down, making the surrounding forest look like countless evil spirits were wandering around.
Liu Manwen's face was pale, and her eyes were numb. She could only run forward instinctively. There were only a dozen soldiers left who were responsible for protecting her. They were all injured, and their eyes were filled with panic and confusion.
"Those monsters …"
"Can we survive?"
"What should we do?"
Seeing that their morale was low, Liu Manwen's expression cheered up a little. She still needed these people to protect or cover her escape. Thus, she said encouragingly, "It's okay. Senior Brother Li Xunyi should be in front. His flying sword technique is already the best among his peers in the Qingwei Sect. Those ghouls are no match for him with their flesh and blood.
As long as we find him, we will be safe. "
"Yes, no matter how powerful those monsters are, they can't withstand the sharpness of a flying sword."
"Maybe he has already killed the ghoul leaders and is coming to save us!"
Hearing Liu Manwen's words, the remaining soldiers were motivated. It seemed that hope had been reignited in their eyes, and their footsteps became a little faster.
Ah!
At this moment, a scream came from behind them. They turned around and saw a soldier being grabbed by the neck. A golden-haired ghoul was grabbing his head with its tiger-like claws. With a light twist, the ghoul lifted the soldier's skull off the ground.
The soldier didn't die immediately. He was still struggling for help. "Save me! Who can save me! "
Seeing the way he was scratching his head and swallowing, the remaining Liu Manwen and the others felt a chill run down their spines, causing them to shudder.
No one dared to turn around to save him. Instead, they all turned around and ran even faster. There were even a few soldiers who threw away their weapons and armor just to run faster.
"Hehe, can you … escape?"
Intermittent Da Qi State language came from behind them. It seemed that the Western ghoul had just learned the Da Qi State language and was still a little unfamiliar with it. However, at this moment, when it came from behind them, it was enough to make them tremble in fear.
"Don't eat me … don't eat me … don't eat me."
At this moment, Liu Manwen's mind had already gone blank from fear. Her mouth kept trembling as she muttered to herself. She kept running forward with one foot high and one foot low.
Behind her, screams rang out one after another. Nightmarish scenes kept flashing before her eyes. The air in her abdomen was so hot that it felt like it was going to burn. Liu Manwen could only keep running, running, and running.
But at this moment, the soldier running at the front suddenly let out a muffled groan. The next moment, his entire body went limp and fell to the ground. It was a rock that had been thrown at him, smashing his head out of shape.
A ghoul walked out of the shadows unhurriedly, followed by more shadows that appeared from all directions.
'Surrounded?'
Liu Manwen knelt on the ground. Beside her, there were five or six soldiers who were covered in blood. However, when they saw more and more ghouls appear, their eyes were filled with despair.
Their hands and legs kept on trembling. Liu Manwen and the group could only watch in a daze as the ghouls around them looked at them with ill intentions. They did not dare to put up any resistance.
The strongest few ghouls in the surroundings got closer to the soldiers bit by bit. Like cats playing with mice, they scratched a few times, took away a few soldiers' weapons, and then ripped off another soldier's arm.
The arm was thrown into the group of ghouls, and a series of snatching sounds immediately broke out.
In this moment of despair, a stream of light flashed across the night sky. It was as if a stream of electricity had connected the ghouls together. In the blink of an eye, seven of the strongest ghouls, whose bodies had reached the purple grade, had their heads blown up and fell to the ground.
Seeing this scene, Liu Manwen was shocked. She shouted, "It's Senior Martial Brother Li!"
In the next moment, a human silhouette dashed out from the front. Wherever he passed by, there would be a rain of blood among the ghouls. That person was like a meat grinder. No matter which ghouls pounced on him, they would all be instantly minced into over ten pieces of minced meat. In the blink of an eye, the figure had already darted up to Liu Manwen.
It was Li Xunyi, who was carrying another flying sword user on his back. The man whom Liu Manwen called Senior Martial Brother Jin had already fainted.
Li Xunyi did not seem to be in a good condition either. His gray robes had already disappeared, and he was wearing a daoist robe. However, it had long been dyed red by blood. It was unknown which part of the blood belonged to him and which belonged to the ghouls.
One could only see that his face was pale, and his eyes were dim. One of his left hands was also bent at an abnormal angle. It was clear that he was not in a good condition. However, there was still a faint smile on his face. It was as if no desperate situation would be able to make him lose his will to fight.
"It seems that you guys aren't having a good time either."
Seeing Li Xunyi like this, Liu Manwen hurriedly asked, "Senior Martial Brother Li, how are things on your side?"
"I've killed two of them, but there are still two more to go. Now that I have to carry this kid, I can't really run away. " After saying this, he did not wait for Liu Manwen to reply. He turned his head and muttered, "Are you a dog? Why are you chasing us so closely?"
In the next moment, it was as if two elephants had entered the field. Alice and Kuilin, one at the front and one at the back, knocked away more than ten ghouls and arrived in front of Li Xunyi and Liu Manwen. The two of them surrounded them from the front and the back.
Alice looked at Li Xunyi with eyes full of caution and fear. It was obvious that the battle just now had made her extremely wary of Li Xunyi.
In addition to fear, Kuilin's eyes also had a crazy killing intent. Three of his strongest subordinates had died in a single day. In particular, Li Xunyi had killed two of them in front of him. How could he not be angry?
"All of you, scram." Kuilin waved his hand and roared.
In an instant, the ghouls around them all retreated. Because of the fight with Li Xunyi, he had a better understanding of flying swords.
The method of using flying swords to attack was a very oppressive method. It could be said that as long as one did not have any effective means to defend against flying swords, they would be killed instantly.
The ghouls around them were too weak compared to Kuilin and Alice who could block flying swords. In front of Li Xunyi's flying swords, they were like weeds. Their sacrifice would be in vain.
Kuilin let out a furious roar and charged forward with Alice, one at the front and one at the back.
