Mu Hanyan ran all the way for three or four hours before she stopped.
After putting Jiang Qiling and Gao Weihu on the ground, she fell to the ground, groaning in pain.
As soon as she'd dragged Jiang Qiling along, she knew things were bad. Jiang Qiling hadn't even a shred of energy left in her body. Clearly, she'd exhausted all her energy before entering this life-or-death illusion, and because of the strangeness of the illusion, she'd never recovered. She'd originally wanted to take her with her, but now, Mu Hanyan could only grab her by the neck and carry her away like an eagle trying to grab a chick.
She didn't even have 30% of her previous strength. It was already difficult enough for her to carry the unconscious Gao Weihu in her left hand, and she had to carry Jiang Qiling in her right hand. You can imagine how hard it was.
After running for several hours, I was so tired that I didn't even have the strength to move a finger.
Jiang Qiling also fell on her back with a look of exhaustion. Mu Hanyan was indeed tired, but she was not feeling relaxed at all as she had no cultivation at all and was being carried by someone by the neck and running all the way.
In this strange space, it is useless to rely on cultivation to restore vitality, and taking pills is a pure waste. The two can only lie on the ground helplessly and recover their strength on their own.
Before she knew it, an hour had passed. Mu Hanyan's complexion finally returned to normal and she regained some strength.
"By the way, how did you get here? Where is Fen Qianji? Isn't he with you?" Mu Hanyan finally had the chance to ask about Fen Qianji, which was also the issue she cared about most.
"When we were traveling through space, we encountered an extremely terrifying space turbulence before we reached the Continent of Gods. Fen Qianji was half-dead and definitely couldn't resist it. In order to protect him, I used up all my strength." Jiang Qiling said here, looking at Mu Hanyan aggrievedly.
If she hadn't known that Fen Qianji was Mu Hanyan's best friend, she wouldn't have tried her best to save him. Anyway, she didn't have much interaction with him. They only met a few times after arriving at Beiyuan Wuyuan. If she could save him, she would save him. If she couldn't, she would have done her best.
But thinking of Mu Hanyan, she still tried her best to protect Fen Qianji.
"Thank you very much. What happened next?" Mu Hanyan of course knew that the reason why Jiang Qiling spared no effort to protect Fen Qianji was because of her, and she felt a little touched.
"With my limited strength, how long could I hold out? Of course, I could only wait for death. But just when I thought I was doomed, an old man rushed over... Well, not really an old man, I guess. He looked very old, but not that old either. Anyway, I couldn't tell his real age.
The old man was very powerful, but it seemed that he had no way to deal with the turbulence in space. In the end, he could only split the space channel with a palm and grabbed Fen Qianji with a finger.
"He looked like he wanted to save me, but that palm strike probably took too much energy, and he tried to grab me a few times but couldn't. Then the space channel closed, and I ended up in this damn place," Jiang Qiling rambled on.
Although that person rescued Fen Qianji but failed to save her, he didn't seem to have any resentment and seemed to think that he was unlucky.
Mu Hanyan couldn't help but sigh inwardly. People are indeed different. If it were someone like Yuan Xiangzhi, who was so extreme and stubborn, seeing that after all his hard work, others only rescued Fen Qianji and not him, he would have no idea how much resentment and hatred he would have felt. But Jiang Qiling simply considered herself unlucky. Her magnanimity was a hundred times stronger than Yuan Xiangzhi's.
"Who rescued him?" Mu Hanyan asked.
"How would I know? He didn't tell me." Jiang Qiling rolled her eyes, then took a closer look at Mu Hanyan and suddenly pointed at her robe and said, "He's wearing the same robe as you, but it's black."
Black sacrificial robes, a Divine Heart Priest? Mu Hanyan certainly didn't think that a mere Divine Heart Priest had the strength to cross the turbulent void, break through the space channel, and rescue Fen Qianji.
To be honest, black robes are the most common attire for temple priests. In addition to the God's Heart priests, many high-level priests who do not want to show off will also wear black robes as their daily clothes, but they will not be embroidered with white cloud patterns representing their level of cultivation.
The one who rescued Fen Qianji was, of course, of this kind. Apart from his master, the Lord God, the ruler of the Continent of Gods, Mu Hanyan could hardly imagine anyone else having such powerful strength. With his identity, he certainly didn't need to rely on a sacrificial robe to show his status. It was normal for him to wear the most ordinary sacrificial robe.
"Then what happened? How did you meet that guy again? Who is he and what did he do to you?" Mu Hanyan knew that Fen Qianji was indeed rescued by the Lord God. Her long-suspenseful heart finally settled down, and she continued to ask.
Not knowing whether she had caused a misunderstanding, Mu Hanyan was afraid of irritating Jiang Qiling's sensitive nerves, so she asked in an extremely subtle way.
"He..." Jiang Qiling had just said one word when she heard a teasing laugh from behind her, "Run, why don't you keep running?"
Just over an hour later, the strong man caught up with him again, like a ghost that wouldn't go away.
Mu Hanyan turned over and stood up, holding Gao Weihu in one hand and Jiang Qiling in the other, and ran for her life again.
With her previous experience, she knew that with the protective magic pot, it would be a complete waste of effort to fight this guy. It would be better to conserve some strength and run faster.
"Hey, stop grabbing me by the neck, okay? It's embarrassing, you know?" Jiang Qiling hadn't thought much of it at first, but now she felt a bit embarrassed by being held in Mu Hanyan's arms like a chicken. After all, she was once a rival of Mu Hanyan, and even if she hadn't been able to beat her, she was only slightly inferior. Now she was being held by the neck like this and running around, if that got out, people would laugh their heads off.
"You are the only one who troubles yourself." Mu Hanyan said impatiently, but still turned her wrist and grabbed Jiang Qiling's belt.
So, the proud daughter of the Jiang family followed Mu Hanyan's movements, leaping up and down, swinging forward and backward. If her strength had not been damaged, it would be fine, but now that she had lost all her strength, how could she withstand such a bumpy ride? She felt her stomach churning and cold sweat broke out on her face.
"Forget it, just go ahead and grab my neck." Jiang Qiling said pitifully.
Unfortunately, this time, Mu Hanyan didn't bother to pay attention to her. Seeing her still trying to save face at this critical moment, Mu Hanyan knew that she had probably misunderstood and that she hadn't suffered any unbearable humiliation. But it was a good opportunity to correct her bad habits of being a spoiled girl.
After running all the way for several hours, Mu Hanyan was exhausted again. She put Jiang Qiling and Gao Weihu on the ground and lay down again.
