Along with that came a pleasant male voice, Pale.

"Don't worry, Oborozuki is with me. Oni-no-Man isn't after you. Run!"

Standing on the Sky-Piercing Shuttle, Longyue's face was as black as could be. She gritted her teeth and looked at the person holding her from behind, "Pale!"

"Hey, I'm here. Don't worry, Oborozuki. They'll be fine. Instead of worrying about them, you should worry about us more."

Pale, deep, and magnetic voice reached Longyue's ears. Because the two were very close, standing on the Sky Shuttle, Longyue was almost touching Pale's chest, so Pale's voice also rang in Longyue's ears.

It felt a little tingly, and the skin around the prickles broke out in fine goosebumps.

On the ground, the four looked at each other, but Li Hei's face showed a more complicated emotion, which seemed to be worry but was not worry. On the contrary, it was somewhat displeased. As for what he was displeased about, he probably didn't even know himself.

"Who was that person just now? Where was he taking Longyue?" Chen Fang asked.

Li Hei had met Cang Bai once before and had a preliminary impression of him, knowing that the two knew each other, but what was the reason for that unpleasant feeling?

Shouldn't he be at ease?

Zhu Yan was relieved. Pao Bai's strength was at least at the Acquired Realm, and it would be much safer for Long Yue to stay with him than with the others.

If Longyue knew what Zhu Yan was thinking, she would probably just chuckle.

Oborozuki: It's actually quite safe; everyone's become sitting ducks!

"Don't worry about Longyue, that's someone Longyue knows. Let's run!"

Without a second thought, the four of them lowered their heads and ran. Don't say anything, just run!

In mid-air, Longyue lowered her voice, almost choking it out, "Pale, explain to me clearly what that sentence meant?"

“We are different from them. You know we come from another world. This ghost python is interesting. It can sense the difference between us. Perhaps we are delicious food in its eyes, so it is following us.”

"It has already chased me around once, and it has now found you. If it weren't for me, you would be the one being chased next. With your strength as a mere fifth-level martial artist, do you think you can outrun the Ghost Python?"

With a pale face and a smile, she patiently explained to Longyue, and casually tucked a stray strand of hair behind Longyue's ear.

"So, I should thank you!"

Longyue and Cangbai were watching each other so closely that they could feel each other's body temperature through their protective suits. Longyue's expression became slightly unnatural, and she turned her head to one side.

"Heh!" Pale chuckled softly. "If you want to express your gratitude, we'll arrange it after we leave the battlefield. You know me; I love it when people repay kindness."

Longyue glanced at Longyue and said, "That's a good idea. Let's talk about it after we get out of here."

Longyue neither refused nor agreed, and she knew what she was thinking.

She truly understood Pale. In the thousands of years that had passed on the continent of gods and demons, their understanding of each other went far beyond mere knowledge; they knew almost everything about Pale's embarrassing moments.

After so many years of grudges and fights, honestly, if it weren't for their different stances, they could have been good friends.

"Okay, I'll be waiting!"

Pale held Longyue in his arms, and Longyue didn't act coy. The two of them were currently in mid-air, and if they were caught by the Ghost Python because of her coyness, that would be incredibly stupid.

The python watched its prey fly away, and it was so angry that it spat and hissed incessantly. However, when it saw that another food had appeared, it suppressed its anger.

The python sighed: "These days, being a snake isn't easy. You can't get angry at your food, or it won't taste good."

"It's looking at us." Longyue coldly stared at the demon python.

The python held its head high, its body upright as the food was in the air, ignoring the food around it.

"It's alright, it can only spit venom at us, it can't fly." Pale chuckled softly, comforting Oborozuki.

Although he was not as strong as the Ghost Python and would definitely lose in a head-on confrontation, he was in the air while the Ghost Python was on the ground!

"By the way, where's your divine flame?"

Longyue wasn't actually too afraid of the Ghost Python. Although her strength was indeed very weak, she still had the Void Flame, which could destroy all life. As long as no one was around, she could take care of the Ghost Python. This could be considered one of her advantages.

The premise is that no one can find out, otherwise her situation will be dangerous. She doesn't believe that no one would be unmoved by such power that transcends martial arts.

Hearing Longyue's question, Cangbai sighed helplessly, "She's asleep, and I don't know when she'll wake up?"

"What's going on?" Longyue asked curiously. Logically speaking, symbiotic flames of the level of Void Flame and Divine Flame should not go into a dormant state once they have passed the growth period and entered the maturation period, unless the master experiences a major life crisis, which could cause the symbiotic flame to backfire.

"When I was little, my enemies threw me into a pile of monsters."

Finally, he added, "But it's nothing serious. I was in bed for a year before I could get out of bed again, so you don't need to worry."

"Who's worried about you, you narcissist!"

Longyue rolled her eyes at Cangbai, whose words had ruined their pleasant conversation.

Are you alright?
