Brother Xiong's fiancée was thrown into the cold underground ancient city. Ming Luo could not just sit there and watch.
But Ye Zhihan was determined not to care about Bai Qianqian, and even wished Bai Qianqian would die quickly, which made her very uncomfortable.
Ming Luo had no choice but to rub Ye Zhihan's chest with his head again and looked at him as if asking for his opinion. Bai Qianqian was Brother Xiong's fiancée. The purpose of their trip was not only to secretly investigate Ye Zhihan's life experience, but the biggest task was to find Bai Qianqian. This was something Brother Xiong asked them to do.
It’s not that Mingluo is so saintly, but the primary goal will definitely not be achieved without her involvement, so why not at least take Bai Qianqian out?
Ming Luo whispered to Ye Zhihan, "Now that Brother Xiong is missing, we can't lose him and his wife at the same time..."
"She almost killed you." Ye Zhihan looked into Ming Luo's bright eyes and reminded him, not hiding his murderous intention towards Bai Qianqian.
Mingluo's eyelashes drooped, casting a beautiful shadow on her lower eyelid. She shook her head slightly. Brother Xiong said that Bai Qianqian was a passionate warrior like a Valkyrie. She protected the family and led the troops into battle. She should not be a bad person.
"I feel like I can hold on a little longer." Ming Luo's eyes were determined as he continued, "Even if I don't take Bai Qianqian with me, I can't leave her tied up here to die."
Ye Zhihan couldn't persuade Ming Luo, so he coldly untied the shadow rope tied to the woman's face, and first confirmed her identity and asked, "Bai Qianqian?"
Bai Qianqian nodded silently with a determined look. She had heard the entire conversation between Mingluo and Ye Zhihan. She was willing to admit that she was inferior to the other person in terms of skills, but the current situation made her feel very guilty.
Bai Qianqian was upset about her own incompetence. She had been at the ruins of the ancient city for several days, but her investigation had made no progress. She had even lost the two personal guards who had grown up with her, and now she was trapped here.
In the dim and lightless environment, she was moving forward cautiously. She had suffered too many losses from traps recently. Now she suddenly saw a strange light, and two strangers suddenly appeared in the environment. One of them had the malicious aura of a demon, so she subconsciously regarded Ming Luo and the others as enemies, and punched them.
But now that the little tree demon named Mingluo had been severely injured, not only did she not want Bai Qianqian to pay for her life, but she also wanted to take Bai Qianqian out. What was the logic behind this? Looking at Mingluo's clear eyes that contained no malice, Bai Qianqian felt very uncomfortable. She couldn't help but suspect that she had really hurt an innocent person.
And could the "Brother Xiong" and "Brother Xiong's wife" they were referring to be Xiong Zhuangpeng? And could the "wife" be referring to herself? Bai Qianqian didn't have time to be shy. Regardless, she decided to apologize first. They were in the same predicament, and if they had no ill will towards her, then there was no need for her to treat them as enemies.
Thinking of this, Bai Qianqian took a deep breath and said, "In the dark, I didn't see who was coming. I thought I was an enemy, so I rashly punched and attacked. Please forgive me for being so reckless and hurting you!"
Bai Qianqian, a member of the Tiger Tribe, was naturally proud, but now she had no face to maintain her pride and was instead overwhelmed with shame. She had always acted with integrity and was a renowned Valkyrie among the Beast Tribe. Her fists should be directed at the most vicious and ruthless, not the innocent and weak.
"I'm sorry! I'm willing to give up 50% of my strength!" Bai Qianqian's eyes were earnest and every word was sincere. If her hands hadn't been tied, she would have punched herself long ago.
Bai Qianqian's words frightened Mingluo. She didn't care about the pain in her abdomen and hurriedly stopped her: "No, no, no! Cough cough..."
Ming Luo spat out another mouthful of blood due to excessive excitement. Ye Zhihan could not bear to watch and quickly sent his Qi into Ming Luo's body. He then directly retracted the shadow rope tied to Bai Qianqian and said in a cold tone: "Your life was given by Ming Luo."
Bai Qianqian stood up, clasped her fists and bowed, and replied neither servilely nor arrogantly, "Thank you, Miss Mingluo, for your magnanimity."
She could naturally feel Ye Zhihan's hostility, and she didn't want to have too much contact with the demons, so she just thanked Ming Luo.
Just like that, Mingluo nestled in Ye Zhihan's arms like a puppy, and he and Bai Qianqian and their group of three set out on a journey to find a way out.
Bai Qianqian had been investigating here for several days, so she had a general understanding of the terrain and traps. She walked in front to lead Ye Zhihan and Ming Luo around the dangerous area, willingly acting as a scout and guide.
At the beginning, Ye Zhihan was wary of Bai Qianqian, fearing that she would deliberately walk into a trap to catch them off guard. Unexpectedly, Bai Qianqian really did what she said. Not only did she leave the situation to Ming Luo and the others, she also tried her best to take a relatively safe path. When encountering danger, she took the lead and overcame all difficulties before letting Ye Zhihan and Ming Luo pass.
Bai Qianqian is apologizing with her actions.
Ming Luo also felt very uncomfortable. Bai Qianqian had just been tied up by Ye Zhihan and had suffered a lot of injuries. Now she had to lead the way for them. It was really heartbreaking.
Looking at her not-so-broad back, Ming Shi really couldn't connect Bai Qianqian's figure with Brother Xiong's description of a tigress. Bai Qianqian's boxing skills were indeed outstanding and her realm was high, but she...
After all, she is just a young girl.
It must be tiring to be so strong.
But Mingluo could only think about it. Now, she was in unbearable pain in her abdomen, and she relied on Ye Zhihan to continuously input true energy to endure it. Thanks to Bai Qianqian's help, otherwise it would be just Ye Zhihan and Mingluo, and they would have to spend more physical strength and energy.
Mingluo thought to himself, maybe this is what it means to help others and eventually help yourself.
Ye Zhihan looked at the girl's face in his arms, feeling both sweet and anxious. If she hadn't been injured, she wouldn't have been so obedient and had physical contact with him, right? Mingluo's attitude towards him had been strange recently. Sometimes she blushed, sometimes she was shy. It seemed that they had a good relationship, but he could feel that Mingluo was always pushing him away. She didn't want to get too close to him.
Now is not the time to think about this. Ye Zhihan shook off these inappropriate thoughts and quickened his pace to catch up with Bai Qianqian.
Of course, while Mingluo and Ye Zhihan were daydreaming, Bai Qianqian was also thinking.
She was curious. How could the little tree demon in Ye Zhihan's arms, clearly only at the Mingpo realm, withstand her fatal punch? She vaguely recalled that when she punched Mingluo, a glimmer of golden light emanated from his body. Although only a flash, it was enough to arouse Bai Qianqian's suspicion. That pure golden light didn't look like a protective magic weapon. Perhaps Mingluo held a hidden power.
Just as the three of them were each trying to find a way out, a loud rumbling noise came from the east. It sounded like a house collapsing. As the sound gradually approached, the three of them felt the earth and the surrounding environment tremble, as if something was approaching...
And this thing is scary.
The three of them quickly took defensive postures, and even Ming Luo was ready for the final desperate attack.
