"Retreat! Everyone, retreat at full speed!"
"That wretched Elizabeth, you better not let me catch you, or else... heh heh." General Liu secretly vowed that one day he would make Elizabeth wish she were dead.
The soldiers of the Star River Empire were masters of escaping, their skills so refined and astonishing that they were truly remarkable. General Liu ordered a retreat, and, ensuring the safety of their leader, the soldiers ran like the wind, using a technique called "walking on water without leaving a trace," minimizing friction between their feet and the ground as they sprinted away.
"Beep beep beep..." The snake relentlessly pursued.
As the saying goes, two-legged creatures can't outrun four-legged creatures, and four-legged creatures can't outrun winged creatures. The floodwaters, once released from their dams, surged forward with unstoppable force, carrying a destructive momentum that killed everything in their path. Those who stood in their way perished.
General Liu charged ahead, his head covered in sweat—not the sweat from exercise, but the cold sweat from his icy hands and feet. Behind him came constant, eerie cries and heart-wrenching roars, which relentlessly assaulted his will.
"Faster, run faster!"
General Liu was of utmost importance; his own life was the most important thing, and he couldn't care less about the lives of others.
Meanwhile, the serpents had been chasing and intercepting Andrei for a long time, and their perseverance paid off; they finally cornered the lamb.
Panting heavily, Andrei leaned against the tree trunk, large beads of sweat pouring down his face. He watched coldly as the long snake-like stream dispersed to both sides, encircling him around the tree.
Taking out the bomb he had smuggled in the chaos, Andrei waited and waited until the snakes swarmed forward. Then he detonated the bomb, intending to destroy everything in their path. Since he couldn't solve the problem for the master, he at least had to get rid of a few of these menaces for the star lord.
"Andrei, over here."
A rope appeared out of thin air.
Andrei looked up and saw a small plane. Andrei recognized the small plane; the Star Lord had once played with it, and it belonged to the Star Lord.
He suddenly turned his head to look around. "Be careful! If the plane is here, then the Star Lord must be nearby." This place was surrounded by long snakes; with the Star Lord's arrival, the odds were against them.
"Hold on to the rope, hurry up!" Mu Sen's urgent voice came from the small plane.
Soldiers are duty-bound to obey orders. Having served for many years, Andrei instinctively grabbed the rope. The small plane didn't stop; with a few buzzes, it quickly took off.
Seeing their prey fly away, the worms swarmed after it. Andrei was already two meters high; what could a small, milky-white stream do to him? Once he was a little further away, Andrei pulled the pin on the bomb and threw it forcefully into the milky-white stream.
With a loud bang, countless snakes were killed.
After a close call, Andri returned to Ji Xiaoxiao and the others unharmed.
"Star Lord." Andrei lowered his head, looking like a submissive wife who would endure any beating or scolding.
Ji Xiaoxiao hummed in agreement and asked, "How's it going outside?"
Andrei was stunned for a moment, then grinned as if he had been granted a pardon and truthfully reported what he had seen with his own eyes.
"Long Aotian." Mu Sen gritted his teeth fiercely.
"Don't forget, there's also the Dark Emperor." Shui Miao patted his brother.
Upon learning of the situation outside, Ji Xiaoxiao didn't dwell on what to do next; instead, she was worried about the long worms in the Abyss Valley. General Liu's group might suffer heavy losses under the worms' pursuit, but they certainly wouldn't be wiped out. However, if the long worms followed General Liu and his group out of the Abyss Valley, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Ji Xiaoxiao racked her brains and realized that the only solution now was to leave General Liu in the Abyss Valley.
Ji Xiaoxiao told everyone her plan, and after a moment of silence, they unanimously agreed. Leaving aside the fact that the long serpent had broken out of the Abyss Valley, causing widespread devastation in Sacridon, to put it more selfishly and reasonably, their relatives and friends were outside. Even if they didn't care about the safety of the Demon God, they also had to consider the lives of their loved ones.
Leaving all the people of the Star River Empire in the Abyss Valley was easier said than done. Ji Xiaoxiao and her group, taking advantage of their location and using every means at their disposal, only served to aid the wicked, providing the long worm with a few extra meals. In the end, General Liu still managed to escape the Abyss Valley.
"Lord Star, the people of the Star River Empire have escaped from the Abyss Valley."
If the plan fails, won't the long worms launch a massive invasion of human territory?
After days of hiding and fleeing through the forest, Ji Xiaoxiao was disheveled and unkempt, looking like a wild woman. Frustrated, Ji Xiaoxiao scratched her head, then gave up, unable to put it down.
"Leave the Abyss Valley immediately."
Given the current situation, they had no choice but to quickly relocate the residents of Sacramento.
Ji Xiaoxiao and her group cautiously arrived at the entrance of the Abyss Valley, looking around carefully as they went, fearing that a long snake might dart out from some corner.
"Star Lord, there don't seem to be any snakes here." Andrei ordered his men to look around, but they couldn't find a single snake.
"Have they all already left the valley?"
With long snakes emerging from the valley like a mighty river, Ji Xiaoxiao dared not even imagine how many people would die in Sacramento.
