"You, Sister Qin, you have no conscience. I was the one who saved you."
"Now I'm bandaging you up."
"Now, with such a good opportunity, wouldn't it be best if I could kill him?"
“I won’t let you kill him.”
Yu Qingyi looked at Xie Lingqin. Beneath her thick eyelashes, the carefree look in her peach-blossom eyes faded, replaced by a serious and resolute gaze.
"You need to make sure we all survive first."
Xie Lingqin suddenly turned her head away.
"He already had a sword wound in his shoulder blade, and now because of your sneak attack, a wound on his waist almost went through..."
“Yu Qingyi, it was he who hurt me, not me who hurt him. Are you trying to put the cart before the horse? The Emperor of Beirong killed my mother, using the most cruel methods to make her soul disappear. He has a long list of blood crimes on his hands, and there are also 50,000 soldiers. Don’t tell me you don’t know that now.”
“I know, but Yuwen Yao…”
“You dare say he didn’t set me on fire, that I wasn’t locked up and injured, that my fingers weren’t pierced? Do you understand that excruciating pain and despair? Do you understand the pain of being tortured by poison, and the pain of having the antidote but not giving it to me?”
Xie Lingqin spoke in a choked voice, each word distinct, making Yu Qingyi choke.
In the cold air, Yu Qingyi looked at Xie Lingqin's cold and stern face, a complex light flashing in his eyes, but suddenly he felt powerless and helpless. At that moment, a sword, gleaming coldly, was slashing down towards the two of them...
...
Xu Yiran and Suanpizi were almost exhausted at this point.
Actually, Xu Yiran noticed something was wrong when he came to rescue Xie Lingqin. These monsters must have been controlled by someone, so he wanted to find out something from these monsters with abnormal combat power. However, these monsters were indeed more powerful than he had imagined, and he had just fought one of them.
"Young master, you go first, I'll hold him off."
Sour Skin was covered in blood, his expression solemn, already prepared to die.
“Lead it to the thinner section of ice and try again.”
Xu Yiran supported herself with her sword as she gave the orders.
"Alright, I'll go."
"No, I'll go."
As soon as Xu Yiran finished speaking, she moved and rushed towards that direction. Suanpizi couldn't stop her in time. In a daze, he saw that the monster was already roaring and chasing after his master. He pounced and grabbed the monster's back.
"Young master, please step aside, I'm coming down."
"Your inner strength is insufficient. Step back quickly. I will use the Cloud Clan's spiritual techniques to create an illusion for him and lure him into a trap."
"ah--"
The monster trembled, and the sourdough was thrown far away. The monster stared with its blood-red eyes and opened its blood-red mouth as if it were looking at prey, and rushed straight towards Xu Yiran.
"Sizzle—"
Under Xu Yiran's internal force, the ice surface cracked open with an even larger fissure. The monster crashed down, and the ground shattered with a crack. Caught off guard, the monster fell down. However, at that moment, the ice beneath Xu Yiran's feet also suddenly cracked open.
A chill swept in, turning people's faces purple with cold.
"Young Master..."
"flutter--"
Xu Yiran spat out a mouthful of blood. Having exhausted his inner strength, he suddenly couldn't lift himself up.
"Young Master!" Suanpizi shouted again, about to pounce, but was swatted away by a palm. Xu Yiran, who was about to fall, suddenly took flight. A very thin hand, missing half a sleeve, grabbed his shoulder and pulled him out of the broken ice. Then, a long sword thrust forward.
"Awooo—"
This sword strike completely sent the strange creature, which was still struggling to break free, crashing down into an icy abyss.
Xu Yiran and the person who saved him fell to the ground at the same time, panting slightly.
"Yu Wenyao?"
Almost instantly, Xu Yiran and Yuwen Yao stepped back simultaneously, their eyes locked in hostility.
only……
Suanpizi's sword, however, seized the opportunity to press against Yuwen Yao's neck.
...
Looking at Xie Lingqin's side, a series of sharp swords came from above, not just one, and a chilling aura suddenly surged from behind her and into her heart.
Almost at that moment, Yu Qingyi pulled Xie Lingqin up from under the tree.
The rain of swords that filled the sky surged forth in an instant.
As the two men waved their sleeves to block, the monster suddenly struck Xie Lingqin's back with a palm.
"careful."
Yu Qingyi shielded Xie Lingqin with his body, but his back was ripped open, and blood instantly stained Xie Lingqin's entire arm.
"Yu Qingyi." Xie Lingqin was anxious for Yu Qingyi, and suddenly another palm struck her from behind.
"flutter--"
Yu Qingyi pulled Xie Lingqin aside, but they were still half a step too slow.
So, both of them were struck by the palm at the same time and fell to the ground, unable to stand up for a long time.
"Ha ha ha ha……"
The rain of swords stopped at that moment, and a rough laugh came from all around, accompanied by a cold wind, sending chills down one's spine.
"Zhuidamu, you are despicable."
Xie Lingqin supported Yu Qingyi, tore off her inner sleeve, and desperately tried to stop his bleeding while whispering rebukes into the shadows.
"How can you call me despicable? In this world, the strong fight for food, and a man's ambition lies in the world. Why wouldn't I take advantage of such a good opportunity?"
From the shadows, a man emerged—the tall and burly Zhuidamu—with a woman covered in blood beside him.
It was Lü Wu, whose eyes were glazed over and unfocused.
"I should have realized it sooner; it was Lvwu who betrayed me."
Xie Lingqin looked at her, but did not blame her. Instead, she glared coldly at Zhuidamu, "You controlled her."
"Of course, ever since we barbarians were defeated by the Northern Rong, we have been devoted to studying witchcraft. Over the years, we have made some progress. In this world, every mortal with desires has weaknesses."
"Are many monster lords serving you in this way?"
