"Senior Sister Leng, you are so amazing. You defeated him so quickly."
"Don't be too happy too soon, let's run away quickly." Leng Qingning looked behind her, swallowed, and pulled her to run back quickly.
Ma Liang and others gasped and ran away as if they had seen a ghost.
"What?"
Huang Shiying was puzzled as to why they reacted so strongly. When she turned around, she gasped and her face turned pale with fear. Behind her, she saw a sea of pale white faces looking at them sinisterly, with black liquid dripping from their mouths. It was extremely disgusting.
"Hehehe~ Fresh human, smells so good~"
In a blink of an eye, the huge empty abandoned ruins were filled with pale human faces, and a large black fog was swirling around them, making the ancient city, which was not bright to begin with, even darker.
They looked greedy and madly chased the six people who were running desperately in front of them. Wherever they went, abandoned pillars, walls, and even half of the remaining palace were all knocked down by them.
Huang Shiying screamed as he ran, "Ahhhhh! - Senior Sister Leng, aren't they too cruel?"
Xu Zhen ran hurriedly while asking, "Senior Sister Leng, where should we go next?" They couldn't keep going like this. Sooner or later, their strength would be exhausted, and then they would only be met with tragic death at the hands of these pale white-faced monsters.
Leng Qingning threw talisman paper and explosive spirit beads behind her as she ran. She counted down silently in her mind, waiting for the power of the explosive spirit beads and talisman paper to dissipate before replenishing them. This way she could buy time for them and save magic weapons to the greatest extent.
Zhao Zhiyong suggested: "Senior Sister Leng, we also have some magic weapons here that can resist those ghost things for a while. Why don't we use them separately?" Ever since Leng Qingning gave him the medicine, he regarded Leng Qingning as his savior and was particularly grateful in his heart.
Ke Wenzhe didn't want to miss this opportunity to show off and said, "Zhao Zhiyong is right. We also brought a lot of talisman paper and explosive spirit beads for this secret realm. They will definitely be able to help you."
"Okay, let's take turns throwing magic weapons into the pile of human-faced monsters at the back."
Leng Qingning naturally agreed with their approach, because she didn't have many magical weapons on her, and if she relied on herself alone, she would definitely not be able to escape from here safely.
Seeing that she paid attention to their suggestions, the five of them showed joy. Ma Liang and others followed her example. The six of them strictly calculated the timing of the talismans and various magic tools, chose the most tricky angles, and were able to kill a large group of human-faced monsters every time.
From time to time, bursts of bombing sounds were heard from the sky above the dark abandoned square, and a small group of pale white faces let out strange screams as they were blown into a bloody mess.
The flesh of the human-faced monster that was killed by the explosion quickly rotted, became moldy, and fell to the ground with a crackling sound. The ground was covered with sticky, black rotten flesh, and the air was filled with a disgusting smell.
Leng Qingning endured the discomfort in her stomach and held her breath, and the churning in her stomach finally calmed down a lot.
Ko Wen-je was in a miserable situation. In order to show off, he would occasionally strike a handsome pose and throw his magic weapon behind him. He happened to see that unforgettable scene. Seeing the rotten meat, he remembered his favorite minced meat with spiritual juice, and spit it out with a "wow".
"Oh my God, Ko Wen-je, you are so disgusting. Why did you vomit at this time?" Huang Shiying pinched his nose with one hand in disgust and threw out a piece of talisman paper.
Ko Wen-je has a lot of grievances and doesn't want to talk about this matter again.
“Ahhh!——”
These pale white faces showed sinister expressions, staring at the six people running in front, making strange noises, and chasing forward one after another under the bombardment of the Exploding Spirit Pearls.
The explosion was accompanied by extremely brilliant red flames. The flames penetrated the swirling black mist and burned every inch of the pale human face. The stench in the air was accompanied by the aroma of barbecue, which was a mixture of flavors.
In the blink of an eye, a large number of pale white faces disappeared from the dark mist. However, they were so numerous that others soon filled the gap.
Gradually, Leng Qingning and the other six had been running around the ruins for nearly half an hour. They were running out of energy and their speed slowed down little by little.
Leng Qingning was panting heavily and was extremely anxious. If this continued, they would be caught up by these disgusting pale faces in less than a quarter of an hour.
If Yan Ci was here, what would he do? This thought inadvertently appeared in Leng Qingning's mind.
"Look, isn't there a well-preserved palace over there?" Zhao Zhiyong pointed excitedly at a place less than two hundred meters ahead where a magnificent ancient palace stood majestically.
The palace was completely pitch black, with a very strange black monster carved on the outer wall. At the top of the building stood an arrow similar to a lightning rod, which was particularly conspicuous among the collapsed ruins.
"There's only one palace intact here. Is there something strange going on here? Senior Sister Leng, do we really have to go in?"
Leng Qingning looked at the pale white faces behind her that were moving in an extremely regular pattern. She always felt that these things were deliberately forcing them into this palace. However, they were now in a dilemma and had no choice but to go in.
"There's no other way. If we don't go in, we'll die. I plan to go in, but what about you guys?" Leng Qingning expressed his opinion.
"I want to go in too. Otherwise, I will be caught up by these stinky things and eaten till there is nothing left." Huang Shiying stroked her cheeks quickly. As a young girl, she didn't want to die as an ugly monster.
Ma Liang said: "I have no objection either."
Senior Sister Leng must have her reasons for doing this. Zhao Zhiyong and Xu Zhen thought so and expressed their opinions immediately.
As for Ko Wen-je, he was the first one to rush to the palace, and there was no objection.
As the six of them approached the palace, the pale-faced people who were chasing them from behind slowed down one after another. When they looked forward, fear appeared on their swollen faces. They slowed down one by one and watched Leng Qingning and the other six enter the palace.
Ma Liang and the other five also noticed something strange at this time. "Strange, why did they suddenly stop chasing us?"
"Let's go in first!" Ko Wen-je was the first to step forward and was about to push open the palace door.
"Wait, those human-faced monsters are reacting strangely. We should be careful and not touch anything here casually."
To prevent the door lock from being tampered with, Leng Qingning casually took out an ordinary sword from the storage bag and pushed the heavy palace door with the hilt.
It was a bit difficult for her to push the door open with the sword by herself. Huang Shiying and Ma Liang happened to have swords picked up from others. They imitated her in pushing the door open with the swords, and the heavy door was actually pushed open by the three of them like pancakes.
