Almost in the blink of an eye, Sang Qian was dragged away.
Zuan was shocked. He had only meant to tease her and make a joke. After all, in his previous life, ancient wells in movies were associated with ghosts and monsters, so it was an instinctive reaction.
But who could have predicted this turn of events?
If something really happens to Sang Qian, he will likely feel guilty for the rest of his life.
He rushed over, and at that moment a burst of fire erupted from the bottom of the well. Then a delicate figure darted out – none other than Sang Qian.
Her face was filled with panic. When she saw Zu An, she immediately shrank behind him and hugged his arm, trembling.
Zuan then remembered that the other party was a fire-type cultivator, and couldn't help but chuckle: "Since you can use fire elements, those hairs would have been burned to ashes the moment they came into contact with fire, so why are you so afraid?"
"Stop talking..." Sang Qian covered her ears. Her legs went weak just thinking about the scene. She thought to herself, "Oh no, I'm afraid I'll have nightmares every day from now on."
"Azu, what was that just now?" Zheng Dan subconsciously moved closer to Zu An. As a woman, she was naturally a little scared of this thing.
“This should be the real deal,” Zuan replied, while keeping his eyes fixed on the well opening.
Zheng Dan and Sang Qian followed his gaze and subconsciously moved closer to him, because a lot of jet-black hair, like vines, spread out from the well and continued to grow, seemingly endless.
As the hair surrounded the three of them, Sang Qian turned deathly pale. Although she was terrified, she was no ordinary woman, and she finally mustered her courage and used fire element to burn the hair.
However, to her astonishment, the hair did not burn as it had before. Instead, the flames she unleashed quickly disappeared. She hurriedly tugged at Zuan's sleeve and said, "There's something strange about this hair. It seems to be protected by a strange, cold aura. My flames can't burn it off. Could it be that the other party cultivates ice magic?"
Seemingly because of the backlash from her attack, she felt a chill that cut to the bone, and involuntarily shivered.
Immediately afterwards, she felt a warmth in her palm, and the chill in her body vanished instantly, making her feel much more comfortable. She looked down at her hand being held by the other person, her cheeks slightly flushed, but this time she didn't say anything.
"The other party cultivates something sinister, not ice-based," Zu An released her hand at the opportune moment, then looked at the well opening and coldly shouted, "What kind of demon is playing tricks here!"
Hehehe~
A piercing, unpleasant voice, like that of a night owl, echoed from the bottom of the well: "Who dares disturb my slumber!"
Sensing an inexplicable pressure, Zheng Dan and Sang Qian's expressions changed simultaneously, and they hurriedly said, "Let's go, the opponent is very powerful."
To everyone's surprise, Zu'an remained unmoved: "Don't worry."
His voice had a strangely reassuring quality, and the two women gradually calmed down.
"No one can leave today." A figure shrouded in black robes slowly rose from the bottom of the well, surrounded by wisps of black mist.
"In a way, this counts as black stockings?" Zuan was amazed at his own ability to come up with wild ideas.
He was a little annoyed. When he saw that long black hair, he thought she would be some kind of beautiful female ghost, just like in TV dramas. Who knew she would turn out to be such a grotesque and ugly woman.
Unlike him, who was relaxed, Zheng Dan and Sang Qian nervously swallowed. The person in front of them was putting immense pressure on them, especially since only half of his face was visible. His face was so thin that it looked like a skeleton, completely skin and bones. His eye sockets were sunken, and his eyes were different from ordinary people, emitting bursts of red light. For a moment, it was hard to tell whether he was a human or a ghost.
"Tsk tsk tsk, two beautiful young ladies, your blood must be even more delicious and nourishing." The half-human, half-ghost thing looked at the two women, a hint of excitement flashing in its eyes.
He practiced evil arts and was extremely sensitive to yin and yang energies, so he could tell at a glance that the two were women disguised as men.
Hearing him say that, both women got goosebumps all over.
Zu An sighed: "Such two beautiful women, and all you desire about them is to drink their blood? Sigh, you've cultivated these evil arts and turned yourself into something neither human nor ghost, losing even the basic abilities of a man. What's the point of living?"
Sang Qian and Zheng Dan's cheeks flushed. Although this guy was praising their beauty, why did it sound so strange?
"court death!"
Rage from the demon +444 +444 +444...
The man in black flew into a rage, and the black hair on the ground instantly straightened, like sharp arrows piercing through the air. If hit, it would probably be riddled with holes.
Zheng Dan and Sang Qian were about to help in the battle when Zu An gestured for them not to, shielding the two women behind him. A faint barrier of energy appeared in front of him.
The black-clad man named Chi Tu sneered inwardly. His move was the most effective counter to cultivators' energy shields. It was a case of breaking through the surface with a single point. Even if someone's cultivation level was a whole level higher than his, they might not be able to withstand it.
How high could this young man's cultivation level be? He still intends to take the hit head-on; he won't even know how he died.
He even considered whether to hold back and spare the other man's life, then slowly suck the blood of his two female companions in front of him, enjoying that torturous pleasure.
However, his smile quickly froze, because he saw that after those sharp hairs pierced the opponent's energy shield, they seemed to have hit a steel wall and broke apart inch by inch.
