Zhu Huiling held the sharp blade in her hand, staring at the monster in front of her, but asked in confusion:

"If we cooperate, we have a better chance of survival. If we fight alone, we will die faster. Do you dare to refuse?"

"Can I survive by following your orders?"

Xu Qiu suddenly sneered.

It was hubris to laugh at her.

Xu Qiu looked at her with a hint of contempt, not taking her seriously at all.

Faced with Xu Qiu's contemptuous tone, Zhu Huiling no longer had the same attitude and temper as before.

Instead, he said patiently, "We are no longer childish now. Survival is more important than anything else. At least under my command, if we fight together, the chances of both sides surviving will be greater, right?"

When Zhu Huiling said this.

He also glanced at Nangong Wan'er and Qin Yumo beside Xu Qiu.

One is a grandmaster, the other is a first-rate warrior.

They would die faster if they fought alone.

Zhu Huiling continued confidently:

"Your team is extremely weak. If you don't join us, you won't survive for half an incense stick of time."

"On the other hand, there are nine of us, so our chances of getting out alive are greater. Are you sure you still want to fight alone?"

Zhu Huiling's words are extremely tempting.

If it were an ordinary person.

I will definitely join without hesitation, after all, it concerns my life safety.

However, Xu Qiu still refused: "Don't worry, even if you die, we are still intact."

There was a hint of casualness in his tone.

It seems that the current situation is not a crisis.

But in Zhu Huiling's eyes, it seemed ridiculous. She was furious: "It's already this time, and you still want to be with a child, right?"

Xu Qiu ignored her.

He brought Qin Yumo and Nangong Wan'er and slowly came to the spring.

Then comes meditation.

And close your eyes.

The Qi sea in Dantian in the body circulates slowly.

At the same time, a large amount of light blue liquid gushed out of the spring, turning into wisps of steam and slowly entering his dantian, replenishing the spiritual energy previously consumed.

Xu Qiu practiced without distraction.

Qin Yumo knew that his brother-in-law was practicing and did not disturb him.

However, Nangong Wan'er had never seen anyone absorbing spiritual energy, and she just thought that Xu Qiu was meditating with his eyes closed to rest his mind.

What is a little strange is that the spring will turn into steam and gradually cover Xu Qiu. It is really a strange phenomenon.

He had no idea that Xu Qiu was absorbing the spiritual fluid.

"You guys, are you really not afraid of death?!" Zhu Huiling's defense was broken.

She had been able to hold her temper before, but now, Xu Qiu's repeated rejections not only made her lose face, but also wore out her temper.

At this time, the fellow students around her advised: "Senior Sister Zhu, don't pay attention to him anymore, this guy is just a stubborn bull!"

"Yes, he wants to die, why should we stop him?"

"Poor Junior Sister Wan'er."

They all talked at once, criticizing Xu Qiu.

He even stood up for Nangong Wan'er.

Zhu Huiling looked directly at Nangong Wan'er and said in a commanding tone: "Wan'er, come here now, don't die with them!"

Nangong Wan'er just rolled her eyes and then shook her head, "No!"

She was extremely resolute.

She would never give up her greatest safety and run to Zhu Huiling to fight with the monsters.

"Are you so ignorant that you want to make your aunt worry?" Zhu Huiling's chest heaved, and she was obviously very angry.

Nangong Wan'er has become more and more unruly since she met Xu Qiu.

He didn't even take his senior sister seriously.

When Zhu Huiling moved out with her aunt, Nangong Wan'er was a little hesitant.

However, at this time, Qin Yumo refuted her face and said:

"If you really care about her, why did you abandon her before? She is just a dispensable tool for you!"

"Besides, will I be safe if I follow you? I don't think so."

Qin Yumo watched them coldly.

This guy challenges his brother-in-law again and again.

If Qin Yumo had the same strength as the other party, she would give the other party a big slap in the face.

"How dare a little girl interrupt me!" Zhu Huiling couldn't stand it anymore and was about to step forward and teach her a lesson.

"roar!"

A beast roar.

Zhu Huiling calmly ordered: "Build the formation!"

Soon, all the disciples gathered around, stood back to back, and formed an impenetrable sword formation.

The monster that had just awakened rushed over impatiently.

It was like a rampaging yak, with its momentum overwhelming. The underground palace was shaking slightly, resonating with the beast's steps.

It makes one's internal organs tremble continuously.

Dust kept falling from the top, like gray snow all over the sky.

"rise!"

Zhu Huiling shouted loudly.

The sword formation exerted a huge advantage, and those monsters that wanted to attack were repelled by several sharp swords.

Many disciples directly used the weapons they had collected before.

Each one is extremely sharp.

The moment it comes into contact with the monster's skin, it can pierce its thick leather armor, leaving a bright red wound, causing the monster to scream in pain.

It’s just a little regrettable that the wound is only on the surface of the skin and it is difficult to hurt the inner flesh.

But it also caused more damage to monsters than the purple swords they previously held.

In this massacre.

The monster's attack was blocked.

The monsters that had charged earlier were now covered in wounds, with blood oozing from their bodies.

No one in Zhu Huiling's team was injured, they just had a little breathlessness, but they were able to hold on.

"Our defensive sword formation is effective!" Zhu Huiling said happily.

Everyone was encouraged by this and felt that they had a greater chance of survival.

"I guess Junior Sister Wan'er must be regretting this now."

Suddenly someone in the team spoke up.

There was a hint of sarcasm on the corner of his mouth.

"I think so. How could the three of them possibly resist so many monsters?" another disciple echoed.

With the help of the sword formation, everyone felt like they were floating.

With their strength and the sword formation, the monsters could not do anything to them for a while.

When they turned their heads and looked.

I was surprised to find that Xu Qiu stood up at some point.

In his hand he held an ordinary long sword.

There were seven or eight corpses of monsters lying around.

Qin Yumo and Nangong Wan'er were unharmed.

Especially Qin Yumo, who swaggered to the monster's corpse, took out a dagger, and took out the bead from the monster's head.

“Nangong Wan’er, catch it!”

He casually threw the beads to Wan'er.

At this moment, everyone's eyes widened, their faces full of disbelief.

"How did they manage to stay intact and kill several monsters?"

A female disciple kept rubbing her eyes, feeling incredible, and her lips slightly parted.

Zhu Huiling also frowned slightly.

This is unexpected.

She knew Xu Qiu was quite capable, but she didn't expect him to be so strong.

"We underestimated him."

Zhu Huiling bit her red lips lightly.

Her side fought desperately and only managed to injure the monster a little, but the other side killed it.

"roar!"

The monster continued to roar horribly.

Attacking them fiercely, Zhu Huiling said without hesitation: "Set up the formation!"

Suddenly the sword formation changed, like a hedgehog, piercing a bloody hole in the monster that suddenly rushed over.

Zhu Huiling used all his strength and swung the sword in his hand like a fierce general sweeping through an army, killing the two monsters and knocking them to the ground.

But the monster did not sit still and wait for death. It stretched out its sharp claws and knocked away many disciples' swords. Then it bit one of the disciples and dragged him away in an instant.

The fellow student wailed in pain: "Ahhhhh!!!"

"Hurry up and save me! Senior sister, hurry up and save me!"

The junior fellow struggled continuously, and even stabbed the dagger he had obtained during the treasure hunt into the monster's eyes, killing it.

However.

Other monsters also swarmed in, tore his body into several pieces, and then devoured it frantically.

Soon, there was not a single slag left. (End of this chapter)
