Chapter 169 Reluctantly Taking Action



The two people who appeared to be being chased were none other than Zheng Yuwei and Ding Min!

Not long after, the three pursuers who had been chasing the two of them came into view!

Surprisingly, it was the same three members of the Crimson Cloud Sect who had traveled together: Gu Wenbai and his two fellow disciples!

This left Zhong Jiajia and Pi Shujun somewhat bewildered, and they stood there stunned.

This scene felt somewhat surreal.

But a sense of foreboding followed immediately, and the two sisters felt a surge of unease.

This situation is probably not good for them, the bystanders.

Given how this relationship has evolved, there must have been some sordid inside story... It's easy to imagine that these bystanders are likely to be silenced!

"The situation looks rather bad, Pipi. You should set up the array base first, and I'll help you protect it. We'll probably have to make a move depending on the situation."

Although he has long lived in seclusion in the mountains, he has managed to cultivate to this level, so he is certainly not stupid.

The two sisters quickly realized that there was a high probability that an unexpected disaster was about to strike!

Reacting swiftly, one of them quickly pulled out array base items from his storage bag.

One of them summoned a magic sword, his magic power surging forth as he formed a sword incantation.

now.

The two women, who were frantically fleeing for their lives ahead, looked rather disheveled.

Zheng Yuwei was slightly better; although there was still blood at the corner of her mouth and her face was a little pale, her overall aura was still quite strong.

However, Ding Min, standing beside her, looked much more disheveled. Her hair was disheveled and draped over her shoulders, her face was as pale as a sheet of paper, lifeless, and her snow-white chest was stained red with blood, a shocking sight that made her look utterly exhausted.

Most importantly, her eyes were unfocused, as if filled with deep pain and despair, as if her heart had died, and she seemed to have lost all vitality. Beneath that utterly decadent aura, there was an aura of death!

As if she had lost all hope, Ding Min was completely different from before.

At this moment, Ding Min was practically being dragged along by Zheng Yuwei as they fled for their lives. Otherwise, it would be highly questionable whether she still had the will to survive, or the motivation to stay alive.

That's why it was necessary to bring Ding Min along to activate the escape light; otherwise, Zheng Yuwei would never have been chased so closely.

But she also knew what Ding Min had gone through, and felt no resentment whatsoever.

However, if things continue like this, Ding Min will still be unable to pull herself together at the last moment, and she will probably have no choice but to flee for her life alone.

And this is what she least wants!

One can imagine how excited Zheng Yuwei was to see Zhong Jiajia and her fellow apprentices.

"Junior Sister Ding, cheer up! We're saved! Your senior sister needs you to pull yourself together, otherwise, how am I supposed to explain this to Master?"

Upon hearing Zheng Yuwei mention her father, a glimmer of light appeared in Ding Min's lifeless eyes, but it seemed to end there. She did not respond to Zheng Yuwei's words and returned to her dazed and distraught state.

Seeing this, Zheng Yuwei didn't bother to say anything more and dragged Ding Min along, increasing their escape speed.

Upon approaching, Zheng Yuwei said excitedly and with a hint of anticipation, "Fellow Daoist Zhong, Fellow Daoist Pi, please lend a helping hand..."

In fact, regardless of how Zhong Jiajia and her fellow apprentices respond.

Zheng Yuwei had no other choice!

Before they could say anything, Zheng Yuwei took Ding Min and landed directly at their location!

"Don't come any closer, or don't blame me for taking action!"

Zhong Jiajia snorted coldly. Although she understood that there was a high probability that she would suffer an undeserved disaster, there was no absolute certainty.

Besides, on what grounds?

However, we only met once and had no real relationship, which led to some unpleasantness.

It's already a good thing that Zhong Jiajia didn't immediately draw her sword, given that she's clearly been drawn into this mess.

"Fellow Daoist, do not act rashly, and listen to me. Gu Wenbai is trying to seize the spiritual treasure and secretly put it into his own hands, so he has ruthlessly attacked us. If others find out about this, it will surely be a disaster for them!"

"Therefore, Gu Wenbai and the other two will definitely not let the news leak out. If you two don't unite to fight back, I'm afraid we won't be able to leave this place alive!"

Upon seeing this, Zheng Yuwei paused slightly and hurriedly said.

Upon hearing this, Zhong Jiajia and her fellow disciple exchanged a glance, both seeing a look of "I knew it" in each other's eyes.

"It seems you've made up your minds to bring trouble upon us, my fellow disciples!"

Zhong Jiajia snorted coldly, a hint of anger flashing across her face.

Although Zheng Yuwei and her companion brought the total to four cultivators at the Foundation Establishment stage, judging from Ding Min's condition, it seems...

Not to mention, Gu Wenbai's three cultivators had extremely sharp auras, and they should all be cultivators who were extremely skilled in combat.

Moreover, it was previously known that Gu Wenbai was one of the chief disciples of the Chiyun Sect!

In comparison, they are almost second only to Han Chenhua among the elite prodigies!

Despite their numerical advantage, their actual strength is vastly different.

"This is a last resort. We have no other way to survive. We beg Fellow Daoists Zhong and Pi to lend a helping hand. We will be very grateful in the future."

"With the four of us working together, if we can buy enough time, we might be able to put up a fight!"

As Zheng Yuwei was speaking, she sensed that Gu Wenbai and the others were getting closer and closer, and hurriedly said, "Now is not the time to argue about these things. Please work together to overcome this difficulty. What happens afterward is entirely up to you two!"
