Chapter 869: Short Life
Chen Yan returned to the camp quietly, just in time for her, Xiao Zechuan and a senior brother to guard the camp.
After she came back, she exchanged a silent look with her friends.
Chi Yue opened his eyes and looked at her, because he had actually discovered that Chen Yan had left the camp alone.
Jiang Xianyue and Zhuge Youlin were only discovered later.
As for Yu Changying and the others, they already knew about it when Shen Yan decided to go to the sealed place of the black water source ahead alone.
Zhuge Youlin stared at Chen Yan with a rather resentful look, as if to say, "Why didn't you call me?"
At this time, Wen Yuchu lowered his voice and asked, "The black fog ahead was very thick just now. Did something happen?"
Chen Yan said calmly: "The seal barrier became looser and almost let a large amount of black water seep out. Fortunately, at the critical moment, the elite disciples of the Dragon and Phoenix clans came, and they and the people from various major forces have already controlled the situation."
In fact, Wen Yuchu and others in the camp also noticed the arrival of the disciples of the Dragon and Phoenix clans. After all, the scale of their support was particularly large.
Yu Changying frowned slightly, "Yan Yan, in your opinion, can this sealing barrier be repaired?"
Chen Yan was silent for a few seconds after hearing this.
She shook her head slowly. "We can only control the situation temporarily. If there is no strong support later, I'm afraid the Black Water Source will really break through the seal."
When the friends heard this, their faces turned serious.
Chen Yan lowered his eyes.
Time is becoming more and more urgent.
She had a vague feeling of uneasiness, so she had to improve her strength as quickly as possible.
At this moment, a man outside the tent raised his hand to open the door curtain. When he saw Chen Yan and the others gathered together, his expression paused slightly, and then he asked, "Whose turn is it to guard the camp with me now?"
Chen Yan and Xiao Zechuan looked at each other and stepped forward and said, "Brother, it's us."
"Come out." said the senior brother.
"good."
Chen Yan and Xiao Zechuan nodded in agreement, then looked at Yu Changying and the others before walking out of the tent.
After leaving the tent, Chen Yan, Xiao Zechuan and the senior brother dispersed according to the pre-arranged tasks and stationed at three key positions in the camp respectively.
From time to time, they patrolled back and forth in the area they were responsible for to prevent foreign enemies from taking advantage of the situation and sneaking in where they were.
Time passed quietly, about an hour and a half had passed.
There was a noise outside the camp.
Chen Yan looked up and saw that the teams from all major forces had returned to the camp.
However, the number of people returning seemed to be nearly half of the number when they set out.
Moreover, most of those who returned to the camp alive were seriously injured, and some even seemed to be staggering when walking.
In this large and miserable group, Chen Yan did not see the elite disciples led by Long Qianxu and Feng Huaqing.
I think they must be standing at the forefront of the battle.
Seeing this, the senior brother said in a serious tone: "Quick, go and help them back."
Chen Yan and Xiao Zechuan stepped forward quickly.
At this time, Wen Yuchu and others who were meditating and practicing in the tent were alarmed. They ended their practice and went to rescue people.
The injured disciples of the Black Alliance were helped back one by one.
They howled in agony.
Chen Yan and his companions quickly purified the black water or black air from their wounds.
Fu Hongxue, who was in the crowd, immediately locked onto the thin figure who was purifying the wounds of his disciple, and the worry in his heart disappeared.
It turned out that she had come back.
Fu Hongxue withdrew his gaze and joined in healing the disciples.
Chen Yan treated the wounds of these injured disciples one by one. Their injuries were either light or serious. The wounds were bloody and the flesh was blurred, which looked extremely shocking.
There are traces of corrosion by black water everywhere.
Even if the injury heals, it would probably be difficult to restore his skin to its original state.
Some disciples even fainted from the pain.
Chen Yan and others devoted themselves to the rescue operation, and there were no distracting thoughts in their minds at this time.
The process of purifying the wound not only consumes a large amount of spiritual energy, but also requires full concentration.
Time passed by like sand in an hourglass, and before we knew it, night had fallen.
Chen Yan and his companions gradually felt exhausted both physically and mentally.
Finally, they successfully cleansed the wounds of all the injured brothers and sisters.
For safety reasons, Fu Hongxue checked each person twice, and only felt relieved after confirming that there was no trace of black water or black gas on all the injured people.
Because if there is any residual black water or black air in the injured person's body, it will lurk and quietly erode the person's consciousness.
It may not be easy to detect at first, but as time goes by, the black water will completely devour the entire consciousness, turning people into parasites of the black water, losing the ability to control themselves, and the consequences will be disastrous.
Therefore, even a little bit of black water remaining is an extremely dangerous hidden danger and must not be taken lightly!
"I'm so tired." Zhuge Youlin said with emotion.
Saving lives is more tiring than killing people.
At this moment, Fu Hongxue walked towards them, then stared at Chen Yan and said, "You, come out with me."
Chen Yan's heart moved and he nodded in agreement.
"Could he be..." Jiang Xianyue grabbed Chen Yan's hand with a worried look.
Chen Yan slowly shook her head at her.
Afterwards, Chen Yan followed Fu Hongxue out of the tent.
Fu Hongxue led Chen Yan to a rather remote corner. He stopped slightly, turned around and looked at the person in front of him.
She was wearing a black robe and a mask, so her face couldn't be seen at all.
Only her cold eyes were revealed.
"Brother Fu."
She called out softly.
Fu Hongxue came back to his senses and could feel the jade pendant getting hot on his chest.
This jade pendant was given to him by a fortune teller he met when he was a child.
The fortune teller said: "You are destined to have a short life and will not live past the age of twelve. But as long as you wear this jade pendant and do good deeds throughout your life, you will live longer..."
He has been wearing this jade pendant for eighteen years.
And he is twenty-seven years old this year.
Seeing that he was silent for a long time, Chen Yan was about to speak when she saw him reach out and pull out a jade pendant from his collar.
The jade pendant was as white as snow, without a single flaw. It was as smooth and delicate as mutton-fat white jade, and exuded a faint luster.
Fu Hongxue stared into her eyes and asked softly, "Is this yours?"
Chen Yan was slightly startled, her gaze moved along Fu Hongxue's palm, and finally stopped on the jade pendant.
With just one glance, her ears instantly became hot, and an indescribable feeling of familiarity surged into her heart, as if an electric current passed through her body, making her tremble involuntarily.
It's his...soul fragment!
She couldn't help but raise her hand and took the jade pendant from the other person.
