Both the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect and the Blood Sect are demonic sects. While it's impossible to say that the higher-ups of both sects are particularly familiar with each other, it's also highly unlikely that the Blood Sect members would be completely unfamiliar with Poison Shadow.
Once Poison Shadow appears here, the other party will immediately realize that the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect has also intervened in this matter, and with Poison Shadow's special abilities, it is very likely that he has saved Shen Yunhao from the Blood Demon Ape.
The alliance between Mu Shuangshuang and Shen Yunhao was no secret within the Demon Sect, so it was perfectly logical for Du Ying to come and rescue Shen Yunhao.
In this way, Shen Yunhao's elaborate death-faking act, which involved surviving a near-death experience, was all for naught.
"You don't need to worry too much. You can probably guess what kind of background that fox spirit has. There's absolutely no danger to its life. The most important thing now is for us to get out of here as soon as possible!"
After a long silence, Shen Yunhao sighed, "Can I go check on her? I'm really worried about her!"
"Why bother? It only adds to your troubles..."
"Senior! I only have this one request. After all, she fought desperately against the Blood Demon Ape because of me. If she leaves like this, I will not be able to rest in peace!"
After hesitating for a moment, Poison Shadow finally shook his head. "Fine! Since you've asked for trouble, I won't stop you."
Shen Yunhao lay on the stretcher. Du Ying raised his hand and waved it, and the space between the two of them immediately became distorted. Then, the light and shadow flashed and disappeared.
...
"roar--"
Every time the Blood Demon Ape swung its fist, a destructive wave of power rippled outwards.
The white fox's massive body appeared quite fragile in front of it. As its body was repeatedly knocked away, its snow-white fur was already stained crimson with blood, but it still looked furious and refused to stop.
"Damn it! Damn it!"
The girl seemed to have lost her mind; the only thought remaining in her mind was the overwhelming killing intent she felt towards the giant beast before her!
The nine long tails blazed brilliantly, each attack leaving a distinct burn mark on the Blood Demon Ape, only fueling the ape's rage.
If it were an ordinary Void Soul Realm demon beast, it would probably be lying on the ground, unable to get up, after suffering this level of injury.
However, the ancient power emanating from Bai Xiaoruo's body seemed to flow into the white fox's body as if it were free, allowing her to stand up again and again, determined to bite the giant beast in front of her into pieces.
"boom!"
As the Blood Demon Ape's fist struck again, the White Fox was sent flying backward once more, crashing to the ground, its blood staining the earth beneath it.
This was the scene that Shen Yunhao saw when he appeared.
Watching that half-red, half-white figure struggle to get up and continue lunging forward with bloodshot eyes, Shen Yunhao felt his heart clench, as if it were being gripped tightly by an invisible hand!
"Silly...fox..."
Only now did Shen Yunhao suddenly realize that he might have been... too presumptuous.
He never considered the pressure his sudden death would place on his unsuspecting teammates.
He didn't even consider how heartbroken the girl would be by his so-called "generous sacrifice"...
"What a silly fox... How could he be so stupid..."
Shen Yunhao's throat tightened, and his voice became so hoarse that it was almost incoherent.
The white fox was sent flying once again, her nine long tails dimming, showing signs of exhaustion, but she still struggled to stand up.
"Enough... Stop hitting him, run!"
Shen Yunhao took a small step forward, but then stopped abruptly, the struggle in his eyes seeming to tear him in two.
He knew, of course, that showing up at this moment would ruin all his plans.
He was also very clear that, given the little fox's identity, she would definitely not die, and someone would surely come to rescue her.
But... watching this heartless, silly fox get up again and again, watching her covered in blood and completely abandoning the elegance and dignity of being a nine-tailed fox, turning into a monster who only knows how to fight.
Shen Yunhao felt his heart clench and throb with pain.
"Silly fox... so foolish it's heartbreaking... but... who isn't a fool at heart?"
Shen Yunhao murmured softly, then turned to the Poison Shadow behind him and said, "Let's go..."
"Um?"
Poison Shadow, who had originally planned to forcibly take Shen Yunhao away, was slightly taken aback upon hearing this.
Walk?
But you just looked like you wanted to save someone!
Am I just imagining things?
However, in that moment of distraction, Shen Yunhao suddenly disappeared!
"Oh no! That brat!"
As expected of a veteran Spirit Void Realm expert, Poison Shadow understood Shen Yunhao's plan almost instantly.
"Zzz!"
However, Shen Yunhao was too fast. By the time Du Ying locked onto Shen Yunhao's location and tried to cast a spell to stop him, a small bolt of lightning had already struck down!
Looking at Shen Yunhao again, after using the Illusionary Shuttle to teleport to a short distance away, he immediately took out a Lightning Talisman and launched it.
The lightning-summoning talisman wasn't particularly powerful, but a booming sound of lightning still rang out.
That is, one second after the lightning struck, the demonic ape and the white fox not far away were both stunned.
The white fox's body trembled violently, its ears twitched slightly, and a trace of confusion flashed in its crimson eyes.
"You damn fox! You stinking fox! You stupid fox! I'm not dead yet! I don't need you, you idiot, to die for me here... cough cough! cough cough cough... get the hell out of here!"
Despite his severe injuries, he continued to use his spiritual energy to cast the Illusionary Shuttle, summon lightning talismans, and amplify his voice, which immediately aggravated his internal injuries. He coughed twice and coughed up a mouthful of blood.
The voice, imbued with spiritual energy, was not quiet. Upon hearing this familiar tone, a glimmer of clarity instantly appeared in the white fox's eyes.
Turning his head to look up the mountain, he saw that familiar figure. His pupils suddenly contracted, and the crimson light in his eyes vanished like a tide, replaced by an unbelievable, ecstatic joy.
"Shen...Shen Yunhao! You're not dead!"
"Even if you die, I won't die! Cough cough... cough cough..."
At this moment, Poison Shadow had already flashed to Shen Yunhao's side, his face, hidden beneath his black robe, as black as the bottom of a pot. "You brat! How dare you play me?"
"senior……"
Shen Yunhao's body went limp, and he collapsed to the ground, but a smile played on his lips. "Now everyone knows I'm not dead, so there's no point in running away anymore. So... help me save her!"
"She's a nine-tailed fox, she doesn't need to be saved at all!"
"Aww—"
The next second, the little fox let out a pitiful scream.
"Ouch! You bastard, don't hit me! It hurts!"
The two turned around and saw the monkey chasing the big fox and beating it up!
After releasing its pent-up anger, the ancient aura within the little fox vanished without a trace. Not only did its cultivation level drop back to the Soul Control Realm, but it also started howling in pain when attacked.
