Chapter 271 Return to the Human Race
"Junior Sister, the passages are all opening. Should we go back or stay here?"
Chen Wan'er's slender fingers gently stroked the bracelet on her wrist, her eyes cast towards the faintly visible space crack in the distance.
Doesn't she want to go back?
However, the changes in the world are happening too fast. I am afraid that once the channel is fully opened, the three realms will fall into turmoil.
The only solution now is to accumulate as much strength as possible before the chaos comes.
"Don't rush to make a decision now." She retracted her gaze, her voice soft but firm, "Third Sister, what do you think?"
Ye Lingyu, Lou Chongxiao, Lin Qingxue and Su Ming looked at each other and read the answer from each other's eyes.
As human cultivators, they naturally have to go back to protect their homeland when it is in trouble.
But saying this will inevitably make Junior Sister feel embarrassed.
Manman, who had been standing quietly by the side, suddenly spoke timidly:
"Sister Chen, if you return to the human race...will you come back?"
She clutched the edge of her clothes, her voice becoming increasingly quiet. "Or...can I go with you?"
Chen Wan'er's heart softened when she looked at the little sister she met in the demon tribe.
She reached out and rubbed Manman's hair, saying gently, "It depends on what your father thinks. Besides..."
She paused, her expression growing serious. "Once the passage opens, there will be chaos in the Three Realms. It will be even more dangerous to follow us."
Manman's bright eyes dimmed instantly, but she soon smiled again:
"Then Sister Chen promised me that she would come to see me after things calmed down!"
Before she finished speaking, Chen Wan'er's expression suddenly changed.
"Not good!" She stood up suddenly and looked in the direction of the human race.
"Third Senior Sister, you must go back immediately. Something has happened to the human race!"
"What?" The magic sword in Ye Lingyu's hand fell to the ground with a "bang".
Lou Chongxiao grasped the key point keenly: "Junior Sister, won't you come with us?"
Chen Wan'er shook her head, "I can't leave. The demon and monster tribes will soon change, and the demon tribe still needs someone to take charge.
Otherwise, the demons and monsters will attack the human race together, and I am afraid that the human race will be in danger."
She looked at her four fellow disciples, her voice filled with determination.
"Big Brother and the others have already gone back, you should go back earlier as well."
Hearing the words "Big Brother", the tips of Seventh Senior Sister Lin Qingxue's ears turned slightly red, and she unconsciously stroked the jade hairpin in her hair.
Chen Wan'er noticed this subtle movement and felt a little relieved.
With the eldest senior brother here, Seventh Senior Sister will be safe even if she goes back.
After all, an alchemy practitioner is not suitable for fighting. Fortunately, after spending a few years with the demon clan, Seventh Senior Sister has trained herself.
"There's no time to lose." Chen Wan'er summoned the Ghost Blood Vine, "I'll have the little vine take you on your way..."
She suddenly stopped talking as a deafening roar was heard in the distance.
Everyone looked up and saw a scarlet crack in the sky that stretched from north to south, like a wound torn in the sky.
In front of them, the passage between the demon clan and the monster clan has also been opened.
The channel to the three realms opened earlier than expected.
The dark demonic energy gushed out from the space cracks like a tide, withering the grass and corroding the rocks wherever it passed.
Chen Wan'er pinched her fingers together, and her spiritual power turned into a barrier, forcibly suppressing the surging demonic energy.
Manman's face turned pale. "Sister Chen, this rift... can it be sealed?"
Chen Wan'er's spiritual power vibrated, and her sleeves fluttered.
"It's possible for now, but it won't last long. Third Senior Sister, you must leave immediately!"
Lou Chongxiao gripped his sword tightly, "Take care, Junior Sister!"
Ye Lingyu turned around and looked at her deeply, "Junior Sister, we will come to pick you up when the situation stabilizes."
The four of them looked at Chen Wan'er deeply for the last time, said no more, turned around and turned into four streams of light that broke through the air and left.
With their current level of cultivation at the Divine Transformation stage, it would not be difficult for them to escape unscathed as long as they did not encounter any Mahayana-level existence.
The strong wind on the top of the mountain blew up Chen Wan'er's clothes, and she looked at the figure of her fellow disciple disappearing into the sky.
"Sister Chen, let me stay with you."
Manman suddenly took a step forward and grabbed the corner of her sleeve with her slender fingers.
"You are resisting the evil spirit for the demon tribe. As a princess of the demon tribe, I should do my part."
Chen Wan'er turned her head to look at the delicate little flower demon from that time.
Manman has now lost her childishness. Her cultivation in the Nascent Soul stage has made her body surrounded by a faint spiritual light, and the green demonic pattern between her eyebrows shows her origin as a plant demon spirit.
The most precious thing is that pair of eyes - still as clear as before, but with a little more determination.
"Okay." Chen Wan'er finally nodded.
At the same time, the human race, the forbidden area in the back mountain of Qingyun Sect.
“Hehehe——”
Amidst the shrill and strange laughter, dozens of black-robed demon cultivators rushed out from the cracks in the forbidden area. The leader was holding a bone banner, exuding a sinister aura.
The leader of the demonic cultivators: "Qingyun Sect? Today, I will make you bloody at the gate!"
Li Qingde sneered and waved his sleeves, "I've been prepared for this trick of yours!"
Before he finished speaking, a golden array pattern suddenly lit up above the forbidden area - it was the Nine Heavens Demon Subduing Array that had been laid long ago!
The sword energy was like rain, instantly turning the three demon cultivators in the front into bloody mist.
Fortunately, Li Qingde had been on guard and immediately beat back these evil cultivators who rushed out.
Luoxia City.
“Huh…huh…”
A cold wind swept through the charred city gate, and rotten corpses piled up like a mountain.
The entire Luoxia City has lost all vitality, with only wandering ghosts left.
They are shaped like twisted human figures, with ghostly green fire flickering in their empty eye sockets. Wherever they pass, even the bricks and stones are covered with a layer of frost.
A monk with disheveled hair staggered out of the black fog, his knees slamming heavily on the cracked official road.
His Taoist robe had long been corroded by the Yin energy and was in tatters, and his exposed skin was covered with spider-web-like blue-black lines.
"They're all dead..." He rasped, digging his nails into the dirt. "Within a hundred miles... there's not even a living mouse!"
The young fellow disciple followed behind him, his hand holding the sword shaking so much that he could hardly hold the hilt.
He stared at the ghosts surging like a tide in the distance, his Adam's apple rolling, and his voice was filled with suppressed despair:
"Brother... do we... still have a chance to survive?"
The fleeing monk did not answer, but just stared at his festering palms - the poison had seeped into his meridians, and he would not survive more than three hours.
Just as the Yin Spirit Tide was about to engulf the two monks—
"boom--!"
The sky suddenly tore apart!
A stream of red light fell to the ground like a meteorite, and a scorching air wave exploded, instantly evaporating the evil spirits within a hundred feet radius!
"Death to the Yin spirit!"
The girl's clear voice pierced the silence.
Princess Huohuo came riding on her sword, her battle robe fluttering in the wind.
She flicked her fingertips and Shatterer rushed out. Wherever she passed, the evil spirits screamed shrilly and turned into ashes!
The fleeing monk looked up in a daze, and a glimmer of life finally appeared in his pupils illuminated by the light.
"These evil spirits... are not right." Princess Huohuo whispered to herself.
"It's spreading too fast... It's like someone is controlling it. Could those people be hiding in Luoxia City?"
If she hadn't arrived in time, the area that would have fallen would probably be far more than just a hundred miles.
