"Panxi—"
"Are you going to betray Da Long—?"
"Betrayal? Hahaha, hahahaha..."
Panxi suddenly burst into laughter, her expression manic, her hair flying wildly in the air like a madwoman.
"Ridiculous, utterly ridiculous!"
"You, Geng Di, are you even worthy to represent Da Long?"
"If the desire for power continues like this, the nation will cease to exist, and the 5,500-year-old foundation of the Great Long Dynasty will be destroyed in an instant!"
"presumptuous--"
The deafening voice rang out again.
An incredibly powerful pressure descended from above, pouring down on Panxi like mercury spilling onto the ground.
Panxi's eyes narrowed slightly. She opened her arms, and a surge of pale purple spiritual energy instantly enveloped Yun Si Ning and Xiao Jiu behind her.
"Click—"
A faint sound of bones cracking came from Panxi's body, but her expression remained unchanged.
"Since you are so determined to go your own way, then I will eliminate you, you wretched creature, on behalf of His Majesty—"
The next moment, the enormous crimson pupil in the sky emanated wisps of demonic energy.
Immediately afterwards, the dark clouds began to churn, and a dazzling red and black bolt of lightning crashed down.
Lightning was like an angry dragon, deep and fiery, like the fusion of hellfire and blood.
"Hahaha, come on, let me see what you're capable of, you eunuch!!"
Panxi roared, and the spiritual energy and desire around her surged like boiling water.
Her figure appeared so small in the face of this behemoth, like a small boat on the sea about to be swallowed by the storm.
At the same time, Yun Si Ning and the other person heard her gentle voice.
"After that attack, I did my best to hold off you for a moment."
"When lightning strikes, do not worry about anything, run away immediately."
There was no time to say more. In the blink of an eye, the black and red lightning had crossed the void and arrived in front of Panxi.
"boom--"
With a deafening roar that could pierce an ordinary person's eardrum, lightning struck Panxi's body precisely.
In an instant, the World Cup before Yun Si Ning's eyes turned completely pale, and the enormous roar caused her to experience temporary deafness.
"Xiao Ning, let's go!"
Xiao Jiu was, after all, a spirit beast that was halfway to dragon transformation, and at this moment, it still retained the ability to escape.
She grabbed Yun Si Ning's wrist and pulled her away, flying off into the distance.
The two ran as fast as they could, and Yun Si Ning didn't even have time to glance at Pan Xi's situation behind her.
Yun Si Ning's cultivation level was much lower than Xiao Jiu's, and coupled with the fact that her spiritual power had been depleted by lust, she was already somewhat exhausted after escaping for only a short time.
Seeing her like this, Xiao Jiu was also extremely anxious.
"Xiao Ning, let me help you!"
"Huh? Eh!!"
Before Yun Si Ning could react, she was suddenly picked up by the little girl.
Picking up Yun Si Ning, Xiao Jiu immediately sped up and fled at top speed.
Being held by Xiao Jiu, Yun Si Ning felt a little shy, but she knew that now was not the time to worry about such things.
She was very worried about Panxi's condition, so she tried to look back.
But as soon as she turned her head, she saw a bolt of lightning several times thicker than before, carrying destructive power, tearing down from the sky.
"Oh no, Xiao Jiu, watch out!!"
Yun Si Ning shouted, but the next moment, the aftershocks of the thunder swept towards the two of them like a whirlwind.
Without Panxi's close protection, the two were directly thrown away by the rolling air wave.
"Xiaojiu——"
Yun Si Ning tried to reach out and grab the other person, but her body was like a rootless duckweed, uncontrollably blown into the distance.
Hit by the blast wave, Yun Si Ning felt her internal organs churning and spat out a mouthful of blood.
She then fainted.
In the last moment before losing consciousness, Yun Si Ning seemed to see something very bright.
It seems... a tall, slender figure flashed by.
But soon, the world before her eyes plunged into darkness again, and she completely lost consciousness.
…… ……
"Ah, ahh..."
After an unknown amount of time, Yun Si Ning let out a muffled whimper.
"Ouch, that hurts so much..."
She felt that every part of her body was aching, and her mental energy was completely depleted.
"Xiao Ning, are you alright?"
When the familiar soft, sweet voice appeared in her ear, Yun Si Ning regained some of her senses.
"Xiaojiu?"
"It's me."
Where are we?
Yun Si Ning opened her eyes, adjusting to the surrounding light.
She felt as if she had seen this scene before.
It seems that when Xiao Jiu first saved me, I woke up in her arms.
Sigh...
I'm really in a terrible state; I'm either unconscious or on my way to becoming unconscious.
Yun Si Ning got up, but the pain in her body had not subsided, and her vision went completely black.
She steadied herself and then realized that she was surrounded by dark stone walls.
A fire was burning not far away, and the two people's shadows were cast on the stone wall in the dim light.
“You were unconscious for five days, and I was worried that you would never wake up again.”
Xiao Jiu said softly, her tone much more relaxed.
We're out!
Yun Si Ning said with delight.
The brown rocks and orange-red flames, not just black and white, indicate that they have left that eerie space.
"Yes, that's right."
Xiao Jiu nodded and got up to stand next to Yun Si Ning.
She looked to be in good condition, with no significant changes.
"You passed out when the second lightning bolt struck, so you didn't see what happened afterward."
