"This isn't my fault!"
After glancing once more at the unconscious Jun Yu and the approaching fish-tailed monster in the distance, Ke'er gritted her teeth, got up, turned around, and fled into the distance.
As I ran, I kept thinking to myself, "I'm sorry, I had no choice."
If I take you with me, we'll both die. Leaving you might give me a chance to survive. Since you've already protected me once, then protect me to the end.
Soon, Ke'er's figure disappeared into the black rain.
However, those fish-tailed monsters had no intention of letting any of their prey go. Some of them approached Jun Yu, while others rode on the dark clouds of the black water and continued to chase after Ke'er in the direction she had left.
"Slap slap slap..."
The fish-tailed monster ran and jumped at lightning speed, reaching Jun Yu in an instant.
They surrounded Junyu, and then one of the leader monsters stuck out its long tongue and licked Junyu's face.
In an instant, its whole body shuddered, then it revealed an expression of utter satisfaction and bliss.
"Squeak squeak squeak..."
Upon seeing its appearance, the other fish-tailed monsters immediately let out excited cries, their eyes fixed on Jun Yu, wishing they could devour it immediately.
"Squeak squeak squeak..."
The monster leader quickly snapped out of his reverie and coldly gave orders to the other fish-tailed monsters, "As expected of a superior human cultivator. It was worth the two months we spent chasing him. After I devour his brain, the rest is yours."
"Squeak squeak squeak..."
Upon hearing this, the other fish-tailed monsters cheered excitedly, "Thank you, leader!"
"call out…"
After the monster leader finished speaking, he no longer hesitated and, with excitement, quickly stuck out his tongue and shot it towards Jun Yu's forehead.
This time, the speed at which it extended its tongue was noticeably different from the last time. The soft tongue pierced through the air, producing a sharp sound similar to the ringing of a sword.
It is conceivable that if this blow had actually landed on Jun Yu's forehead, it would have created a hole in it.
As the tongue drew closer, the leader monster's eyes grew increasingly excited, as if it could suck out the extremely delicious brain marrow in the next second.
"Pfft..."
However, just as the tip of the tongue was about to pierce Jun Yu's forehead, a flash of silver-gray light appeared, and the tongue was sliced in two.
"Ouch..."
The pain of having its tongue severed caused the leader monster to let out a sharp and agonizing scream.
"Bang..."
Immediately afterward, before the fish-tailed monsters could react, a massive, mountain-like body suddenly descended from the sky, crushing two or three of the fish-tailed monsters with a single stomp.
"roar…"
He yelled, scooped Jun Yu up from the ground with one hand and held him in front of him to protect him, while with the other hand he swung his huge axe and slashed fiercely at the fish-tailed monsters.
"Pfft..."
The accident happened so suddenly that the fish-tailed monsters didn't have time to react or dodge, and their chests were ripped open with deep gashes.
Black blood spurted out instantly.
"You all deserve to die!"
Looking at Jun Yu in his hand, who was incredibly weak and almost unrecognizable due to the corrosion of the black rain, Jun Ran felt an uncontrollable rage rising in his heart.
He moved swiftly and decisively, wielding his axe with overwhelming force. In just a short moment, more than a dozen fish-tailed monsters perished at his hands.
