Flying with a person consumed a lot of magic power, and one could imagine the resistance when gliding in the air.
Yuan Gang noticed that Su Zhao's flying distance was not as far as before. When he landed again, he shouted, "Stop!"
When the two landed, Su Zhao looked at him in confusion. Yuan Gang said, "Carrying me with you consumes too much magic power. Take a rest and recover, or it will be very troublesome when we meet the pursuers."
Su Zhao asked, "How do we rest now? Wait for the pursuers to catch up?"
Yuan Gang said, "I'll carry you."
"…" Su Zhao was speechless and smiled bitterly. "Forget about carrying me. It's easy to leave footprints in the desert when you run on the ground. The New Moon Pavilion must have sent large birds to chase us. The footprints are too obvious and can be easily found from the air. It's okay, I can hold on for another hour or so. "
She smiled bitterly, but her heart was sweet. It felt good to have someone who would not leave her. The desolate desert in front of her could also be regarded as a garden.
Yuan Gang said, "If we can catch up here, it doesn't matter whether we leave footprints or not. Only by preserving our strength will we have a chance to face them. Listen to me."
His words showed that even he felt that the hope of escaping was very small. Now it was really a desperate situation. They should run as far as they could and look for the last chance that might appear.
Since he had said so and was already mentally prepared to face it, Su Zhao was also calm. "No need to carry me. You run, I fly."
"You recover your magic power as soon as possible." Yuan Gang did not allow her to refuse. He pulled the bag to his chest and directly pulled her over. He turned around and hugged her legs, directly carrying her on his back, and ran wildly in the desert.
Su Zhao felt shy and happy at the same time, but also worried. "Running in the desert is tiring. Can you run with me on your back?"
"You can still run even if you carry two more!" Yuan Gang said and focused on running wildly. He ran up and down the sand dunes as if he was running on flat ground. His running speed was still very fast.
After a while, a faint red mist appeared in his mouth and nose again and began to circulate as he breathed.
At first, Su Zhao was very worried, but he gradually realized that this person did not know what fatigue was. His physical strength seemed to be endless, and his breathing was very steady. Su Zhao gradually relaxed and prepared to ask him what was going on when he had the chance.
The wind whistled by her ears, caressing her. This feeling of the wind was something she could not feel when she was wrapped in transcendence energy to defend herself when she was flying. It was like galloping on the back of a horse, but she did not have to be distracted to control it, so she could feel at ease.
She took out a Primary Spirit Pill and put it into her mouth. Then, she slowly lay on his back and sniffed the masculine scent on his body. She realized that this man was really strong. Gradually, she calmed herself down and cast a spell to restore the magic power she had consumed …
In the vast and boundless desert, he sprinted all the way, never knowing exhaustion, but there was an unexpected interruption.
Just as he was rushing towards a sand dune with a person on his back, a crack suddenly appeared on the slope of the sand dune. A sand scorpion that was the same color as the desert suddenly broke out of the ground and pounced at Yuan Gang.
The sudden appearance of this monster, which was as big as a calf, surprised Yuan Gang. He loosened his arm that was hooked on one of Su Zhao's legs and swung his saber.
The sand scorpion was aggressive before it pounced, but when it approached, it shook its pincers urgently and shook its head and tail, as if it wanted to turn its head and escape. However, due to inertia, it still crashed into Yuan Gang.
"No!" Su Zhao's voice suddenly sounded behind him.
It happened so suddenly that the warning was a little late. The saber slashed wildly, and the Zhanmadao had already split the sand scorpion into two halves. A stream of bright and dazzling blood sprayed out and splashed onto Yuan Gang.
The blood of the sand scorpion was obviously redder than ordinary blood.
After killing this sand scorpion with one slash, Yuan Gang found that this monster was not difficult to deal with. He rushed up the sand dune and continued to run forward.
Su Zhao sighed and said, "Don't you know that the sand scorpions in this desert can't be killed?"
"What's the problem?" Yuan Gang asked as he ran.
Su Zhao sighed and said, "It seems that you really don't know. There are many sand scorpions in this desert. The poisonous stingers on their tails are highly toxic, and they crawl very fast. They come and go like the wind in the desert and have a strong ability to jump and attack. In this desert, their thirst for food makes them extremely sensitive to the smell of blood. Once something is injured and causes them to smell the blood, they will immediately alarm countless sand scorpions from all directions to hunt for food. Even if their own kind is injured, they will still eat it. You're in big trouble. "
Yuan Gang was silent for a moment. He probably understood the helplessness in her sigh.
He couldn't fly and could only run on the ground. If Su Zhao flew with him, he wouldn't be able to hold on for too long. After that, they would inevitably be besieged by endless enemies in this desert. He was afraid that Su Zhao might not be able to escape with him.
"Let's go back. If we go deeper … there may be a chance of survival if we face the Waning Moon Pavilion. These monsters are unreasonable." Su Zhao smiled bitterly.
As if to confirm her words, large and small sand scorpions began to appear in this desert one after another. They were extremely excited to see living creatures and rushed over.
Su Zhao said, "Put me down."
"Wait!" Yuan Gang refused and stared downwind, as if he wanted to confirm something.
Seeing that the sand scorpions that were rushing downwind suddenly slowed down and seemed to have stopped, Yuan Gang's eyes lit up and he said, "It's okay. You continue to restore your magic power. We may have a chance to escape."
Su Zhao was puzzled.
Yuan Gang's running direction had turned to the left and he was running downwind.
As he approached, the Sand Scorpions downwind seemed to be extremely scared. When he was about to reach them, they all backed off and made way for him, crouching on both sides of the route where Yuan Gang was running, not daring to move at all.
Su Zhao was suddenly surprised and asked, "What's going on? What did you do? " She didn't see any movement from Yuan Gang, so she couldn't understand why these sand scorpions suddenly became so obedient.
"I'll explain later." Yuan Gang was not perfunctory or trying to hide anything from her.
In fact, it was not an easy thing to run in the desert with a person on his back. His constant chatter affected his breathing rhythm. Only by maintaining his breathing rhythm could he maintain the physical strength to run with a person on his back. Some things could not be explained clearly in a few words.
Su Zhao was surprised by the abnormal phenomenon in front of her and looked around from time to time. When she looked back, her eyes suddenly fixed and she vaguely saw a black spot chasing them.
"The people of Waning Moon Pavilion are chasing us. Put me down!" Su Zhao gritted her teeth.
Yuan Gang turned sideways and looked back, but he didn't intend to put her down. "Let's see if the sand scorpions can stop him."
Su Zhao said, "It's useless. There are many masters in Waning Moon Pavilion. Since he dares to chase us alone, the sand scorpions can't stop him."
"It's okay if they can slow him down. I heard that there is a Boundless Pavilion in this desert. No one dares to act rashly there. As long as we run to the Boundless Pavilion, we can find someone to contact Daoye and ask Daoye to find a way. He is very smart."
"It's useless. I'll stop him and delay him. You find a way to contact Daoye in the Boundless Pavilion. Even if I fall into the hands of Waning Moon Pavilion, they may not kill me immediately. You go to Daoye and tell the people of Waning Moon Pavilion not to act rashly against Daoye. With this ability, maybe your Daoye really has a way to save me. "
"I have to try even if it's useless."
Yuan Gang hugged her legs tightly and refused to give up. He didn't say anything else and focused on running. He ran even faster.
He knew that Su Zhao's words were probably to comfort him. Since he took her away from Waning Moon Pavilion, he had to be responsible for her.
"Let me go!" Su Zhao struggled for a while and punched him on the shoulder. Then she stopped struggling. This man was really strong!
She also knew that it was useless to struggle. This man obviously would not leave her behind and run away alone. In that case, what was the point of struggling?
Looking at the man in front of her who was running desperately with her on his back, tears fell. She cried and also smiled.
She used to think that she would be the one to protect this ordinary man in the future. She didn't expect that it was this ordinary man who stood up to protect her.
"The least regrettable thing in this life is to follow you." Su Zhao whispered in his ear.
Yuan Gang didn't seem to hear it and just ran wildly.
The bearded man who was chasing after him did encounter some trouble. When he flew down, a group of sand scorpions immediately swarmed to besiege him.
With a wave of his big sleeve, a powerful magical power shook away the sand scorpions that came from all directions, and then he got up and rushed out.
Yuan Gang's actions also surprised him a lot. That guy could run so fast in the desert with two legs, and he was carrying a person on his back. What was even more strange was that he was entangled by sand scorpions all the way. That guy galloped among the sand scorpions as if there was no one there. Along the way, none of the sand scorpions attacked that guy, but they kept pestering him. What the hell was going on?
Yuan Gang's running speed in the desert with a person on his back was really not slow. He was not disturbed by the sand scorpions, but the bearded man was entangled by the sand scorpions as soon as he landed. The speed of the two chasing was actually equal.
How could the bearded man let this joke happen? When he was about to fly down again, his big hand reached out and grabbed the ground in front of him.
Buzz! A sand pillar several feet high rose from the ground.
He landed on the sand pillar in a flash and flew away again.
Taking off at a higher altitude, he bounced higher and flew further. Although this consumed more magical power, it avoided the interference of the sand scorpions below.
As soon as he left the sand pillar, it lost the support of magical power and immediately collapsed, pressing on the sand scorpions below.
After repeating this, he soon caught up with the running Yuan Gang. He flew over from the sky, landed and turned around, and blocked in front of Yuan Gang. A cold light flashed in his black robe, and a sword was held horizontally in his hand to block the way.
He didn't know why, but standing at the downwind, the sand scorpions around him were motionless and didn't want to attack him again.
Yuan Gang hurriedly stopped and let go of Su Zhao. The "Three Roaring Blade" was slanted in his hand, facing him, and he was panting.
Su Zhao finally landed, and his eyes sized up the figure of the other party.
The eyes under the other party's mask, the beard under the other party's mask, and the sword in his hand made her realize something. She shook her head with an embarrassed expression and said, "Master, even you won't let me go? Even you want to kill me? "
