Chapter 516 Protection
"Mother, run away!"
Wang Longqi saw a claw covered in black smoke reaching out to the two of them, so he quickly interrupted Ji Yuhuan's wild thoughts, carried Shen Gongdao on his back, and started running.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Two black claws slapped the ground, making muffled sounds, and then a beast mouth with red eyes and fangs poked out from the darkness. This half-human, half-beast monster was more than two meters tall. Sometimes it was on all fours, and sometimes it used its legs to quickly catch up with Wang Longqi. It slapped hard with one claw, and three red lights broke through the air.
"Young Master Shen, don't worry. You saved my life, and I will never abandon you even if I die!" Wang Longqi said gritting his teeth.
Before he could finish his words, he heard the sound of wind breaking behind his head. He subconsciously shrank his body and hid under Shen Gongdao's body.
Bang——
Three sharp claws slashed at Shen Gongdao's back, and the two rolled forward several times and landed in a mess. Shen Gongdao vomited some of the ancient ape blood that was already in short supply.
Wang Longqi carried him on his shoulders again and said, "Young Master Shen, cheer up!"
The monster saw that his move not only failed to kill the prey, but also sent him far away. He immediately became furious, opened his bloody mouth, and spit out a red streak! Whoosh——
Hearing the sound of the light beam splitting, Wang Longqi quickly dodged to the side, and Shen Gongdao was blocked by it again. Then, the red streak hit Shen Gongdao fiercely.
boom--
The two flew together more than ten feet away.
Wang Longqi was so dizzy from the fall that he shook his head to wake up. He looked up and saw that the city was not far away. As long as he entered the city, he believed that this little monster would not dare to chase him recklessly.
Ji Yuhuan was also approaching the city gate. Seeing this, she hurriedly shouted to Wang Longqi, "Ah Qi, come here quickly!"
Wang Longqi frowned and said, "No, I can't abandon Young Master Shen!"
As he spoke, he picked up Shen Gongdao again.
Ji Yuhuan's shout attracted the monster's attention. It had just focused its attention on Wang Longqi, and after two ineffective attacks, it realized that the woman was about to enter the city.
How could this be possible? The monster glared, and a ball of fire shot out of its nose! Boom——
Ji Yuhuan was delicate and timid, how could she dodge in time?
"Mother of my child!" Wang Longqi saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly threw Shen Gongdao from his shoulder forward and shouted, "Catch him!"
He was close to her, and with this throw, Shen Gongdao landed right in front of Ji Yuhuan, blocking the fireball.
Boom! Shen Gongdao's clothes exploded on his back, and he fell to the ground unconscious.
"Mother, run quickly..." Wang Longqi shouted again, and added: "Remember to bring Young Master Shen with you..."
At this time, Ji Yuhuan finally realized the importance of bringing Shen Gongdao with her, so she dragged him forward.
The monster's attacks failed several times in succession, and it beat its chest angrily. It was clear that Wang Longqi and his men would face another wave of attacks.
At this moment, suddenly a golden holy light fell from the sky and landed on the monster's head.
laugh--
Just like boiling water melting a snowman, the monster's body made a strange hissing sound and melted away without any delay, disappearing in the distance in the blink of an eye.
When they looked up again, they saw a noble young man in a platinum-colored robe descending from the sky and coming in front of them.
"I have killed the monster, there is no need to panic... Oh, you three?"
The young man in white looked at the now unrecognizable Shen Gongdao and couldn't help but smack his lips, "He's still alive..."
"Thank you very much for saving me, sir. I wonder if you can also rescue my friend..." Wang Longqi stepped forward and pleaded.
"You two are actually friends..." The young man in white was surprised for a moment, then nodded: "I'll try."
After saying that, he placed his hands behind Shen Gongdao's back. A ball of white light flashed from his fingertips and slowly flowed into Shen Gongdao's body.
Wang Longqi was also a man who had seen the world. He realized that this magical power was quite similar to Li Chu's Small Bodhi Mantra, and was probably a Buddhist healing method.
"It turns out that he is not a human being, but a demon with ancient blood. No wonder he is not dead..." the young man in white murmured.
As the white light slowly rose, after a moment, Shen Gongdao actually uttered a "hmm" sound, his eyebrows twitching, and then he slowly opened his eyes.
Wang Longqi immediately rushed over and said, "Young Master Shen, you finally woke up. It's worth my efforts to protect you..."
…
"no."
"Not yet!"
Following the eldest prince's question, Li Chu and Ye Leng'er denied it at the same time.
Ye Leng'er blinked and glanced at Li Chu beside her. She didn't know what she was thinking of. Her eyebrows suddenly raised and she looked at the eldest prince, "Don't think that you can let me go just by calling me sister."
The eldest prince asked weakly, "Then should I call out twice?"
"Humph." Ye Leng'er laughed in anger, "Brother, you watched me grow up. No matter how much we fought, no one's life was lost. When you were defeated, you were just driven out of the Eternal City, right? I don't want to believe that you actually want someone to take my life today in order to seize the holy object."
"No, little sister, we just want to scare you." The eldest prince waved his hand and explained, "I have already discussed with Venerable Shrimp and Venerable Crab. We only want to scare you into revealing the whereabouts of the holy object, but we will never harm your life. If you don't believe me, ask them!"
Ye Leng'er: "..."
Li Chu: “…”
The eldest prince: “…”
After a moment of silence, Ye Leng'er said expressionlessly, "Why don't you go down and confront them?"
"No, little sister!" With a thud, the eldest prince actually knelt down. "Big brother was bewildered for a moment and forced you to abdicate, but you have to believe that big brother absolutely has no intention of killing you."
"Bewitched? I think you have been planning this for a long time." Ye Leng'er had no intention of being fooled by him. "You have made plans since the day I returned to the Eternal City. If I hadn't told you that I had the holy object, I'm afraid you would not have promoted me to the position, but would have killed me immediately. It's a pity that you have been planning for so long, but you didn't expect that I was also lying to you. The holy object may have been taken away by my second brother a long time ago, and I have nothing in my hand..."
"Ah..." The eldest prince's little calculations were completely exposed by her. He couldn't think of any words to refute for a while. He collapsed to the ground. After a long pause, he looked up and said, "Little sister, I really didn't want to do this. You drove me out of the Eternal City before. I was like a stray dog and fell into the hands of thieves. They took me back to the Eternal City and forced me to obey their plan. I was coerced and instructed by others!"
"Heh..." Ye Leng'er snorted coldly and asked, "Who threatened you?"
The eldest prince raised his head and shouted, "The Yi Yao Sect, Patriarch Tenghe!"
