Chapter 381 Qingyu is sad
"Isn't there an exception? Back then, Cheng Rou fell in but didn't die; she came out completely unharmed."
At this point, Ouyang Jue also looked puzzled, "So how did she get out of such a dangerous place?"
Looking at the dark, misty valley, Xin Hun Yin suddenly remembered that when he passed through this place a few months ago, the Tianfeng Sect's warships had been attacked.
At the time, others didn't know the full picture, but she was very clear in her heart that those evil things were aimed at her.
She found it very strange at the time, and now, with the dragon's roar that she had indeed heard, her doubts only deepened.
Dragon's Roar?
"Could there really be dragons in this valley?"
Just as Xin Hun Yin was lost in thought, several cultivators who had been scouting behind him rushed over, shouting, "It's bad! They're chasing us again!"
"Damn it!" Shi Tianxin couldn't help but curse angrily, "Are those people dogs? How come they can find us no matter where we go?"
Hearing his words, Xin Hun Yin became somewhat wary. He glanced at Shi Yi and the others who had been captured and said, "Go and investigate. It's probably on them."
Upon hearing this, Shi Tianxin was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized what was going on. He walked over aggressively and started punching and kicking the group of people.
Even the female cultivators Ling Shu and Lü Xuan were kicked by him several times, and they curled up and cried in pain.
Yang roared angrily, "You bastard, what kind of man hits a woman!"
"Exactly!" Shi Yi sneered. "Only incompetent people take their anger out on women!"
Shi Li: "Yes, yes, not a man!"
Shitian laughed angrily: "Fine, you like to play the hero, huh? Then I'll beat you all to death first!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Shi Yi and his group were bound to get a beating. Seeing this, Ouyang Jue stopped them and said, "Alright, let's take care of business first."
Upon hearing this, Shi Tianxin glared at them and dragged them out one by one to examine them. Finally, he found a clue on Qing Yu. "Damn it, I found it!"
Holding the Moon-Hidden Veil in his hand, he suddenly kicked Qing Yu to the ground, angrily saying, "I never expected it was you who did this!"
Qingyu was also completely bewildered. With his hands tied behind his back, he struggled to his feet. "Give it back to me!"
Seeing his nervousness, Xin Hunyin smiled contemptuously and reached out to take out the white Moon Shadow Gauze. "Heh, so it's the mark left by Feng Yue. No wonder you can't shake them off no matter what."
Imprint?
Hearing this, Qingyu was also taken aback. He had no idea what other marks were on it, so when he secretly went back to get it, Feng Yue actually knew.
Upon considering this possibility, Qingyu felt a surge of displeasure and even a sense of shame.
How shameful!
"Pah!" Shi Yi spat out a mouthful of blood, "Why are you running? You're a stray dog, you're doomed sooner or later!"
"Damn it, you're the one with the most foul mouth!" Shi Tianxin kicked wildly a few times in a fit of rage, but Ouyang Jue stepped forward to stop him. "Alright, stop wasting time, let's hurry up and go."
"Wait!" Xin Hunyin gripped the Moon Shadow Veil in his hand, glancing at the dark valley not far away, a sinister smile appearing on his face. "Since they dare to chase after us, why don't we take advantage of the situation?"
...
Not far behind, a streak of light suddenly flashed, revealing Feng Yue, who had broken away from the main force. He sensed the faint mark and followed it all the way to the valley entrance.
Looking at the dark, misty valley, Feng Yue frowned slightly. After pondering for a moment at the valley entrance, he sent a signal to the sky and then turned and disappeared into the valley.
This scene was naturally witnessed by Xin Hun Yin, who was hiding outside the valley. Xin Hun Yin's face was full of smug mockery. "Ha, another fool who is blinded by lust."
As soon as she finished speaking, her figure flashed and disappeared from the spot.
...
At this time.
In the dark and gloomy valley, Qingyu slowly awoke from her unconsciousness, only then realizing her dire situation.
He was thrown into the valley of the Soul-Binding Cliff by that woman.
"asshole!"
suddenly.
The commotion in the distance caught his attention. In a panic, he looked up and saw countless scarlet eyes staring at him with malevolent intent.
It was as if they were wild beasts hunting in the shadows, ready to pounce and kill him at any moment.
Qingyu's heart trembled at the sight, and he subconsciously tried to summon his magic weapon to defend himself, but he forgot that he had no spiritual power left. At this moment, he was just a lamb to the slaughter.
"Damn it!"
Seeing the monsters shrouded in black mist rushing towards him, he put on the Moon-Hidden Veil and ran.
Despite the concealment effect of the Moon Veil, they were still repeatedly chased by those evil monsters.
Qingyu was exhausted from the journey. He leaned against the rock wall, panting heavily, and cursed, "Damn it, are these monsters able to smell things?"
He looked at the dark, sunless valley and couldn't tell which way to go. It was simply impossible for him to run out like this.
As he watched the monsters he was searching for nearby seemed to be increasing in number, a sense of despair began to creep into his heart.
Am I really going to die here?
Just as he was lost in thought, his neck was suddenly choked shut. A pair of withered hands were gripping his neck tightly, making it difficult for him to breathe. "Ugh... let go of me!"
Qingyu struggled desperately, but within moments his face turned red from being strangled. At that moment, the monster in front of him roared.
He felt nauseous and frightened at the sight. These strange monsters in front of him were actually skin and bones, with bloodthirsty light flashing in their deep-set eye sockets, and they kept emitting sinister laughter.
"Hehe, it's been ten thousand years! A living person has finally been caught!"
"It smells so good... I can finally have a good meal..."
"I'm so hungry! Eat! Eat him—!!"
Hearing the cackling laughter in her ears, Qingyu suddenly held her breath and kicked the monster in front of her away, then knelt on the ground, greedily inhaling the sound.
But by the time he recovered, the monsters had already surrounded him, and he had nowhere to escape.
"Get away!" Qingyu trembled uncontrollably at the sight. "Don't... don't come any closer!!"
However, his roar, like that of a trapped beast, failed to deter them; instead, it excited them and drove them forward to attack.
Qingyu closed his eyes in despair, preparing to endure the pain of being devoured, but after waiting for a while, the expected pain did not come.
So he tried opening his eyes and found that a barrier had been erected around him, instantly blasting the monsters several meters away.
Immediately afterwards, he felt his body lighten as he was embraced in a warm hug.
Qingyu smelled the familiar scent, her eyes gradually filled with tears, and she cried out in a trembling voice, "Feng Yue..."
Hearing his aggrieved cries, Feng Yue paused in his breathing in the darkness, but still remained silent, simply wielding his demonic blade and slaying the charging monsters.
After fighting for a long time, the monsters seemed to realize Feng Yue's power. They glared at him angrily but hesitated to advance, and actually retreated to a distance to watch.
Upon seeing this, Feng Yue picked up Qing Yu and fled rapidly into the distance, only putting him down after confirming that it was safe.
Qingyu was overjoyed, "You—"
"Where are the others?" Feng Yue's cold tone interrupted him, causing his heart to skip a beat. He slowly released his grip on Feng Yue's arms. "They're not here..."
Feng Yue: "Not here?"
Qingyu bit her lip: "They discovered the mark... so they wanted to use me as bait to lure you into the valley. They should have already escaped by now."
"Oh," Feng Yue said again, "Which way did they run off to?"
“It’s roughly to the south,” Qingyu said after a moment’s thought. “Judging from their conversation, it seems like they have someone there to meet them.”
"Hmm." Feng Yue responded softly, summoning his wristwatch artifact, and asked, "Senior Brother, are you there?"
After a moment, Nan Muyin finally responded: "Fourth Junior Brother, are you alright inside?"
"It's alright," Feng Yue said. "The Soul Guide isn't in the valley. You take your men and chase them towards the Southern Region. They shouldn't have gone far."
“Southern Region? Okay, I’ll contact my fifth junior brother later and see if we can stop those bandits.” Nan Muyin said, still somewhat worried, “Binding Soul Cliff is dangerous, so please be careful.”
"Um."
After their call ended, the place fell silent for a moment. Qingyu stood to the side, looking somewhat awkward. "Thank you..."
"No need."
At that moment, in the dim light, Qingyu met his somewhat indifferent eyes and suddenly felt a pang of sadness in her heart.
He naturally knew that the person in front of him was no longer Feng Yue, but the fearsome First Demon.
"Let's go." Feng Yue said, taking the lead. Under the terrifying demonic aura emanating from his body, the evil monsters around him dared not approach easily anymore.
Following closely behind him, Qingyu looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar figure, and her eyes gradually welled up with tears.
At this time.
The Moon-Hidden Gauze he clutched tightly in his hand made him look incredibly embarrassed in this situation. Tears welled up in his eyes, blurring his vision and making it even harder for him to see the road ahead. Unexpectedly, he lost his footing and stepped into a small pit, staggering forward.
Feng Yue reacted quickly and caught him, sighing and saying calmly, "Watch where you're going."
"I don't need your help!" Qingyu angrily slapped his hand away and limped forward, her long-suppressed sobs growing louder.
Where are you hurt?
Feng Yue took a few steps forward and grabbed him, but Qing Yu pushed him away, "What are you doing?!"
Hearing his displeased rebuke, Qingyu felt even more aggrieved. "There's no need for Lord Chumo to worry about this!"
"I don't need to interfere?" Feng Yue was so angry that he laughed. A fierce demonic aura raged around him, making Qing Yu's hair stand on end.
"Anyway... I don't need your help, just leave!"
"Fine!" Feng Yue sneered. "Since you're so arrogant and capable, then I'll just ignore you!"
After saying that, Feng Yue transformed into a streak of light and disappeared from sight in the blink of an eye, leaving Qing Yu standing there in a daze.
"asshole……"
Qingyu watched the disappearing figure, tears welling up in her eyes, and whispered, choking back sobs, "You're not him... He would never do this to me..."
Standing there crying for a long time, seeing that the departing figure still hadn't returned, Qingyu wiped away her tears and continued walking forward with a limp.
