While Zhao Ying was killing the sea beasts, she slowly approached Su Jinyue. She planned to kill Su Jinyue first and then deal with Zhan Yihan, who seemed to be much more difficult to deal with than Su Jinyue.
Su Jinyue had long sensed the murderous intent behind her, but she didn't take Zhao Ying seriously. She wanted to see what the person who secretly protected her and Yihan would do.
Seeing Su Jinyue was completely oblivious, Zhao Ying let out a sinister smile. She raised the whip in her hand and swung it fiercely at Su Jinyue. She had said that reaching Ding'an City would be the end of Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan's lives.
The next moment, Zhao Ying's eyes widened in disbelief. She slowly lowered her head and saw a sword stuck in her chest. The sword had clearly burst out from behind her. Who was behind her? Why hadn't she noticed their presence?
At the same time, Zhan Yihan appeared in front of Zhao Ying and blocked the whip she was swinging.
Seeing that Zhao Ying had been stabbed by the sword, Zhan Yihan gave her a cold look, then came to Su Jinyue's side, and seeing the smile in her eyes, he shook his head helplessly and smiled, "How naughty!"
"I know she can't hurt me." Su Jinyue stuck out her tongue playfully, her longsword continuing to slay the sea beasts charging towards them. Zhao Ying was an early Golden Immortal, and she was not only a physical cultivator, but also possessed greater true strength than Zhao Ying. Even if her whip landed on her, it wouldn't leave a single scratch.
"Don't underestimate the enemy." Zhan Yihan swung his sword, sending countless sharp sword beams scattering outward, instantly wielding a large number of the sea beasts charging towards them. This time, he didn't use the Xuanyuan Sword, but the same sword as Jin Yue. When he had originally forged it, he had specifically forged two identical swords, one for each of Jin Yue and him. He planned to refine a better immortal sword for Jin Yue and himself once his forging skills improved further.
"I know you will protect me." Su Jinyue smiled brightly, imitating Zhan Yihan's movements and sweeping out a sword beam. With Yihan around, she could completely give herself to him.
Zhao Ying slowly turned around, wanting to know who was behind her, but found no one behind her. She fell to the ground unwillingly. Not only did she fail to kill Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan, but she also sacrificed herself. Who were Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan, and why would someone protect them?
Zhao Ying slowly closed her eyes and was soon submerged by the tide of beasts. When the tide of beasts passed, Zhao Ying was no longer on the ground.
The beast tide became stronger and stronger. Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan kept fighting, completely forgetting where they were and just kept waving their magic swords.
The sky darkened and then lightened, then lightened and then darkened again. Three days had passed in the blink of an eye. The ground was already in a mess, with the corpses of monks and sea beasts everywhere. It was a very tragic sight.
A sound like the howling of sea beasts came from the sea, and then the sea beasts began to retreat into the sea.
Luo Qianao wiped the blood from his face and sat down weakly on the ground. "Finally, we can rest for a while. Take a pill first. There will be another beast wave soon." He took out a pill and handed it to Zhou Zishuang. This was only the first wave of beasts, and there would be more to come. He was really worried that they wouldn't be able to hold on.
Zhou Zishuang retracted her gaze, took the pill and put it in her mouth, "Have you seen Junior Sister Su and Junior Brother Zhan?" After this beast tide, everyone's clothes, faces, and hair were covered with the blood of sea beasts. It seemed that apart from the differences in height, weight, and size, it was impossible to tell who was who.
Luo Qianao shook his head. "I didn't see them." He was truly worried about Junior Brother Zhan and Junior Sister Su. Their cultivation was so low, and he wondered how they were doing. This beast tide was greater than previous ones, and the overall strength of the sea beasts was also greater than before. Even he and Junior Sister Zishuang struggled to withstand it, let alone Junior Brother Zhan and Junior Sister Su. Now he could only hope that they were safe.
Zhou Zishuang shook her head, sighed, and closed her eyes. She knew it was pointless to worry any further. In this situation, no one could help anyone else. Since they had chosen to come here, all they could do was fight tooth and nail, fight to kill the sea beasts, fight to stay alive.
Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan looked around but didn't see Luo Qianao and the others, so they found a place to sit down and wait for the next wave of beasts to arrive.
"Which sect are you from?" asked a young man beside him.
"The secluded fairy palace." Zhan Yihan said in a calm voice.
"I am a disciple of Yunyang Sect. My name is Gu Zhenyang. I am very happy to meet you. Can I be your friend?" Gu Zhenyang smiled and stretched out his hand.
"I'm Zhan Yihan, and she's Su Jinyue." Zhan Yihan stretched out his hand and shook hands with Gu Zhenyang.
Gu Zhenyang raised his lips and smiled, "I heard that the Escape to the World Immortal Palace is one of the top ten sects in the Yuntian Realm, and it has countless disciples with powerful cultivation. Why would they send you out to kill the sea beasts? Don't get me wrong, I don't have any other intentions, I'm just curious, don't be angry." He greeted Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan because he saw that their cultivation was too low, and he wanted to ask what was going on.
"We asked to come out and gain experience on our own initiative." Su Jinyue said.
"Aren't you afraid of danger? This is just the first wave of the beast tide, and there will be a stronger one later." Gu Zhenyang said. Even he couldn't withstand this beast tide.
"I'm afraid, but I have no choice now, I can only fight." Su Jinyue shrugged and smiled.
Gu Zhenyang was stunned for a moment, then he laughed, reached out and took out two talismans and handed them to Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan, "This is a defensive talisman that can temporarily withstand the attacks of sea beasts. I hope it can help you." He liked Su Jinyue's optimistic attitude, so he wanted to make friends with them.
"Thank you! We have our own." Su Jinyue shook her head and refused.
"Don't be polite with me, I really want to give it to you." Gu Zhenyang said sincerely.
"We are not being polite with you. I really do have a defensive talisman." Su Jinyue took out a stack of similar defensive talismans while speaking. "Look, I didn't lie to you."
"Are you a talisman master?" Gu Zhenyang asked in surprise. If you weren't a talisman master, you wouldn't carry so many talismans.
Su Jinyue smiled and did not deny it.
"I'm also a talisman master. If we have a chance in the future, can we have a sparring match?" Gu Zhenyang said happily. Su Jinyue was able to produce such a stack of fourth-level defensive talismans, which showed that her talisman refining level was no lower than fourth level.
"Okay." Su Jinyue nodded with a smile.
