Chapter 155
…
Huo Qi carried Mu Jiao as they journeyed through the sea of sand. Time passed slowly, the early morning coolness dissipated, and as the sky gradually brightened, a blinding heat began to envelop the world...
Although Huo Qi was moving extremely fast, the sea of sand seemed boundless, and he would occasionally encounter ugly sand beasts blocking his way along the way.
For Yu Huoqi, his strength has now recovered, and these sand beasts are nothing to him and can be easily dealt with. However, these things would come out from time to time to block his way and waste a lot of his time.
After dealing with another small group of sand beasts, Huo Qi frowned slightly as he looked at the small pile of animal corpses and then at the endless yellow sand in the distance.
The person in his arms was tightly wrapped in a high-end sun-protective clothing. The heat waves in the air could not affect her rest for the time being, but this was far from enough.
Jiaojiao's mental and physical strength are both low, so awakening her innate power should be impossible according to common sense. However, this time, because of saving him, she miraculously awakened her innate power. I wonder if it will have any effect on her body...
Besides, awakening one's innate power is a big deal in itself, not to mention that most people awaken their innate power at around the age of 25, while she is less than 19 years old... Not only is the awakened innate power so special, but she also used up all her innate energy to treat his genetic collapse disease, which is very likely to damage his foundation.
The environment in this desert is harsh, and he needs to find a quiet and suitable place for Jiaojiao to rest and recuperate as soon as possible.
At this moment, Huo Qi heard someone shouting for help from the bottom of a hill not far away. Huo Qi stood on the hilltop and looked down. He saw several mercenaries fighting a wounded sand beast, and one of them seemed to be about to die in the beast's mouth...
Huo Qi looked at Mu Jiao in his arms with a gentle expression. Jiaojiao's current condition could not be delayed any longer. Now these people came at the right time. He would save their lives temporarily and ask them how to get there. If they didn't know, then... it wouldn't be too late for him to send them to feed the sand beasts.
"Help, brother, help!" A Long, who was busy dodging, did not notice Huo Qi standing on the hill, but the sharp-eyed Li Li noticed him and immediately shouted desperately in the direction of Huo Qi for help.
"Help, help—"
Seeing that A'long was being bitten by the sand beast, Li Li shouted for help to Huo Qi more and more anxiously. Obviously, he regarded Huo Qi as his last life-saving straw.
In the end, Huo Qi did not disappoint him. At the last second before A Long was about to be torn apart by the sand beast, Huo Qi rescued him.
The sand beast lay dead in front of Aaron, and the rotten smell of blood soaked him. Aaron was stunned, not knowing whether he was scared by the sand beast or by the sudden change in front of him.
Li Li, who was standing by, was quick-witted and quickly thanked Huo Qi who had come over to meet them:
"Little brother, thank you so much! I didn't expect you to be so powerful despite your young age. You saved our lives today! If you have any requests, please feel free to ask. As long as we can do it, we will definitely do our best to help."
To be honest, Li Li was also shocked by the attack of the young man in front of him who seemed to be holding a person. The five of them tried their best to hunt down the sand beast, but this young man was able to kill it in one go, and he didn't even see how the other party attacked.
This person is absolutely strong. They are lucky that he is willing to save their lives today.
However, after glancing at the sand beast that had been torn into pieces and its flesh and blood were scattered, Li Li's heart couldn't help but ache, as if he saw countless energy stones flying away into the distance.
“Hoo-ho-ho—”
The sand shook slightly, and the roars of beasts came from all directions. Huo Qi glanced at the group of sand beasts that had surrounded them. It was obvious that the trouble was not over.
