Gong Mingyue knew that he was the incarnation of the Nine Heavens Profound Fire, but seeing him dressed in red still made him somewhat unhappy. The surrounding air seemed to grow colder, and his gaze towards Ye Yan became increasingly displeased. Ji Jiuying sensed something, shook her head helplessly, and with a gentle flick of her sleeve, Ye Yan disappeared before her eyes.
She was so jealous that she was afraid Gong Mingyue might impulsively kill Ye Yan, which would be a huge loss!
Gong Mingyue nodded in satisfaction upon hearing the answer, then wrapped his large arm around Ji Jiuying's slender waist, and the two disappeared from everyone's sight.
Just like that, you left?
"Ji Jiuying and that man from earlier were a match made in heaven; they were so pleasing to the eye even standing together!"
Murong Ning gazed in the direction where the two had disappeared with adoration, completely oblivious to the expressions on Murong Yun and Murong Jinxiu's faces.
"Brother, do you know who that man was just now?"
Murong Ning turned to look at Murong Yun, only to find that he had a dark expression on his face. Murong Ning was completely bewildered. Had she said something wrong? Murong Jinxiu also looked at Murong Yun, a hint of anticipation flashing in her eyes.
Murong Yun snorted coldly, "Don't know him!"
"All right!"
Murong Ning sighed dejectedly, "I haven't seen my benefactor for so long. Did he get eaten by that ancient beast?"
Murong Yun's expression flickered slightly. It was good that she thought so; she wouldn't have to think about this matter all the time.
boom!
A loud bang snapped everyone back to reality. Someone shouted, "Run! The island is collapsing!"
Panic gripped the crowd, and people scattered in all directions as they rushed down the mountain. The once beautiful Longtou Mountain was now a scene of devastation, with many cliffs and precipices where a single misstep would result in certain death.
Some summoned spirit beasts to ride on, and ran down the mountain at high speed. Some panicked and fell, and before they could stand up, they were trampled to death by the people and spirit beasts behind them. Some did not see the cave on the ground while running, and fell down after missing a step. No one cared, and no one stopped.
Situ Qianqian stared at the figure not far away, a vicious glint in her eyes. She gathered spiritual power in her hand and struck a man's leg. The man fell towards Wen Longxiu in pain. Wen Longxiu was startled and, in order to avoid the man's impact, she accidentally stepped into thin air.
ah--
A scream rang out! A triumphant smile flashed in Situ Qianqian's eyes.
"Xiuer!"
Wen Chuyu was startled and quickly rushed to the edge of the cliff. A gust of wind swept past him, and Jin Chenzi's staff was stuck in the cliff face. He quickly grabbed Wen Longxiu's hand, and Wen Chuyu breathed a sigh of relief.
Jin Chenzi looked at the hand he had gripped, which was slightly red, and a strange look flashed in his eyes. Her hand... how could it be so soft and small, as if it would break if he exerted even the slightest force? Thinking of this, his ears couldn't help but burn. Coming back to his senses, he forcefully tossed Wen Longxiu up a little, then grabbed her arm. Wen Longxiu's eyes widened, and she was about to get angry when he forcefully threw her up. Wen Chuyu caught her above, and seeing that she had landed safely, Jin Chenzi also used the force of his staff to fly up as well.
Wen Longxiu was both ashamed and angry. This damned monk dared to take advantage of her! But what she didn't know was that Jin Chenzi was afraid that if he used too much force, her hand would break, so he chose to grab her arm.
Regardless, he had saved her. Suppressing his anger, he composed himself and said, "Thank you, Master Kongchen, for saving my life!"
"No need to be so polite, consider this repayment for the pills you gave me." After saying this, Jin Chenzi turned and left without waiting for Wen Longxiu to say anything.
Seeing that he showed no sign of realizing he had offended her, Wen Longxiu's suppressed anger surged again. Before she could say anything, Jin Chenzi's figure had already walked away.
When Situ Qianqian saw that her plan had failed, she was furious. Just as she was about to turn around and leave, someone kicked her hard from the front and sent her flying. She landed face down on the ground, and by sheer coincidence, she landed on a pile of minced meat mixed with dust. Instantly, her mouth was full of minced meat and dust.
"Who dares to... Ugh~" Before Situ Qianqian could finish speaking, a foul stench filled her mouth, making her feel nauseous and causing her to gag repeatedly.
Upon closer inspection, she realized that the place where she had just collapsed was clearly covered in the flesh and blood of those dead people. At this moment, she could no longer control herself and didn't care who had kicked her. She lay to the side vomiting incessantly until Situ Jiannan, who had arrived later, stepped forward and used a cleansing spell to clean her body. She felt a little better, but by then her face was deathly pale.
"Situ Qianqian, how does human flesh taste?"
Situ Qianqian then raised her head, glaring angrily at the grinning person in front of her. "Shen Miaoqing, it was you who kicked me!"
"So what if it is? Who told you to dare to ambush Ah Xiu!" Shen Miaoqing said sternly.
Wen Chuyu and Wen Longxiu, who were not far away, frowned slightly as they watched this scene. Could it be that Situ Qianqian was behind it?
Seeing everyone looking at her, Situ Qianqian became furious and embarrassed. "Don't try to slander me! I'm so far away from her!"
"Hmph, I was right behind you just now, and I saw through all your little tricks! It was you who used your spiritual power to hit that man, and that's why he fell towards Ah Xiu!" Shen Miaoqing said solemnly.
Situ Qianqian wanted to say something, but the sword held to her neck terrified her and she couldn't speak. Looking at Wen Chuyu's murderous eyes, Situ Qianqian's legs trembled uncontrollably.
"What exactly did Ah Xiu do to you? Why do you keep provoking her? This time you actually want her dead! Do you really think I, Wen Chuyu, wouldn't dare to kill you? Let me tell you, even if I strike with this sword, your Situ family won't dare to do anything to me!" Wen Chuyu's icy blue eyes were filled with killing intent.
