“Boss, someone has found us!” Bao Bao had very good eyesight. He turned around and saw the situation behind him.
Two elite warriors at the Perfect Void Martial Stage were already dashing towards them at full power. Only, the rapid speed of the Fire Cloud Phoenix was no less than the elite warriors at the Perfect Void Martial Stage.
Between the two groups, they maintained a distance in which neither of them could approach nor pull away.
“No…” Suddenly, Bao Bao’s pupil shrank because he had clearly seen that at this moment, Wu Lihu had layered on top of Yan Qingyun. Like an immense driving force, a ray of yellow light had shot out from Wu Lihu’s body directly.
Boom!
Instantly, Wu Lihu’s body had shot over with a speed that was two-times faster than the arrows. The most critical part was that Wu Lihu extended his arm in which he drew the bow with one hand, and the other hand placed the arrow—Whoosh!
It was another arrow. Although that bow and arrow was not as outrageous as the Graceful Spiritual Bow, with a Perfect Void Martial Stage wielding it, it still evoked a magical divine power that could destroy the heavens, earth, or swallow the wind and thunder.
That arrow carried an imposing power sweeping away the void to pierce through directly. With the blink of an eye, it had arrived before them. Bao Bao immediately urged the Fire Cloud Phoenix downwards.
Whoosh!
That arrow closely whistled past their ears as it pierced directly into the mountain cliff opposite of them. Now, there was a ninety degree curve at the mountain cliff.
With a booming sound as it shoot the mountain cliff, a giant hole the size of a few miles appeared.
Inwardly, QIn Wushuang was shocked as this power was on par with a bomb from his previous world.
“This arrow, is only a warning…” Wu Lihu’s voice spoke coldly, “After three arrows, if you still don’t stop, I will let you guys experience the feeling of having your heart getting pierced by ten thousand arrows.”
As he spoke, he grabbed another dozen of arrows and placed them onto the bow instantly. These arrows seemed to have been glued to the string of the bow.
“Boss…” Bao Bao’s heart sank, “This person has superior shooting skills! This is not going well.”
Although Qin Shixun had completely planned everything and counted all the advantageous and disadvantageous conditions, he never expected that this Wu Lihu had this trump card!
Lone’s eyes had become red: “The power of one arrow is already this powerful, for sure we cannot dodge all those arrows.”
This was the reality. Although Wu Lihu had shot three arrows continuously, it was one after another. He had not shot the arrows at a fast speed.
His purpose was to force Qin Wushuang and his friends to stop. Wu Lihu and his friends’ goal was those goods robbed by Qin Shixun. Thus, he had not unleashed the strongest shooting techniques.
“Boss, how about we turn back and fight to the death with him!” Despite facing a life and death moment, Lone did not appear cowed as he was unafraid of death.
“No!” Bao Bao overruled it decisively, “If we go back, none of us will even be able to defeat a Perfect Void Martial Stage!”
Qin Wushuang nodded: “Bao Bao, I will change position with you all, I will be at the rear!”
Bao Bao said urgently: “Boss, at this time, at most you can block one arrow at the rear. You cannot block all those arrows.”
Lone cried out: “Then I will be at the rear, my defense power is stronger! My skin is thick!”
Qin Wushuang gave a long sigh: “The destructive power of the Perfect Void Martial Stage is not just body attacks. Their attack will certainly penetrate the primordial spirit. Especially since our primordial spirit had just formed, and it will not withstand the ravaging power from those at the Perfect Void Martial Stage. Bao Bao, urge the Fire Cloud Phoenix to fly down!”
“Boss, although this Fire Cloud Phoenix is a puppet combat beast, it also has a little bit of consciousness. The more you go down, the greater the heat. Even if it is the Fire Cloud Phoenix, it will not be able to bear it. If we drop any further, we will melt.”
“Even melting is better than dying at the hands of these bastards!” Lone gave a long sigh.
Suddenly, Bao Bao said: “Boss, Senior Qin Shixun created a chance for us and sacrificed himself. Now, perhaps it’s time for me and Second to sacrifice ourselves for you!”
“Second, are you willing to let Boss go alone?”
The Purple Flame Electric Beast gave a hum: “The moment when Boss unsealed my prison, it was destined that I existed only for him. Isn’t it just death? Since the humans do not even fear it, how could us, spiritual beasts, lose to them.”
Just when Qin Wushuang was about to speak, Bao Bao stopped him: “Boss, it’s time to make the decision. If you don’t leave, the three of us will die!”
“If you go, perhaps you will live. In the future, you can avenge the two of us!”
QIn Wushuang said in a low voice: “You guys go, I will cover for you!”
Bao Bao said miserably: “Boss, we cannot go at all! We don’t have the ability to fly or any other flying techniques. Only you have this skill. We will continue to ride the Fire Cloud Phoenix into the deep abyss. You will keep flying forward. The greater we drop, the thicker the smoke that will cover your escape!”
“Boss, go! Just go!” Lone also gave a low growl.
After having lived two lifetimes, Qin Wushuang had never had the experience of abandoning his friends to save his own life. Now, although he was urged by Bao Bao and Lone, he did not budge.
“Second, Third, we already said when we enter the Xuan Yuan Mound, we will stick together, make our way, make ourselves known…” Qin Wushuang said slowly, “I cannot do this, to leave you guys here.”
Bao Bao said urgently: “Boss, don’t forget, your family, your sect, and the Qin Clan are all waiting for you.”
Just as they were quarreling, Wu Lihu’s voice emerged again from the distance: “Humph, if you keep flying downwards, you will drop to the cliff. Unless, don’t think about evading from my attacks. I will count to ten, if you don’t reduce your speed, prepare for a moving and tragic fire burial at this Wild Flame Cliff!”
Bao Bao and Lone looked at each other and at this moment, they had shared the same mutual understanding. Both extended their hands and pushed Qin Wushuang’s shoulder and gave a low roar: “Boss, go!”
Caught off guard by the push of these two waves of power, Qin Wushuang’s body flew out directly and rapidly forward. Naturally, the wings on his back opened.
Almost at the same time, Bao Bao and Lone turned around the Fire Cloud Phoenix and dashed towards the direction of Wu Lihu.
The color on Wu Lihu’s face had changed as he shouted: “You are digging your own grave!”
Lone swore: “Bastard, you want to kill us? In your next life!” After he had finished speaking, he and Bao Bao extended their palms to slap the wings of the Fire Cloud Phoenix.
Instantly, struck by the pain, the wings of the Fire Cloud Phoenix froze and could not gather any strength. From the air, it fell headlong and dropped to the high cliff at a swift speed.
Naturally, the speed of their descent was extremely fast. He only saw that as the flame blazed to the sky, the overflowing flame had swallowed the figure of Bao Bao and Lone directly, like those hungry and craving vicious beasts.
Qin Wushung instantly knew that things become far from reassuring when he heard the miserable cry of the Fire Cloud Phoenix. Violent pain struck his chest as if someone had stabbed a sharp blade into his chest.
Crest Mountain!
Not even in his dreams had Qin Wushuang expected that this Crest Mountain would become the place of final parting between him and Bao Bao, Lone. This sudden and unexpected disaster were completely outside his expectation.
Bao Bao and Lone’s suicidal drop to the cliff also left Wu Lihu dumbstruck. He withdrew his bow and arrow to look downwards with a sentimental look. Yet, he only saw countless flame seedlings continue surging upwards with a red light like a vicious beast that had been suppressed for a few ten thousand years. Even someone as strong as Wu Lihu also felt waves of throbbing as goosebumps emerged all over his entire body.
Just when he was stunned, that Yan Qingyun also caught up and asked: “What’s wrong?”
Wu Lihu shook his head with a bitter smile: “They went down.”
“Went down?” Yan Qingyun looked at the raging flame downwards with a disbelieving look. The situation below was like a boiling oven that seemed to ready to erupt with destructive hellfire at any moment.
“For sure each of these Qin offspring do not fear death.” Wu Lihu was deeply moved. He would not have the slightest courage if he was asked to jump into this place, regardless of the number of people chasing after him.
“Are you sure that group of people were also people of the Qin?”
“If they are not people of the Qin, who would work for Qin Shixun?” Wu Lihu asked a counter question.
“That may not be the case. When we chased Qin Shixun here, we didn’t see any other helpers.” Inwardly, Yan Qinyun felt extremely defeated.
Although Qin Shixun had died, they did not get the goods. Besides, Qin Shixun’s death had not come without cost. The number of casualties from the Heavenly Penance Villa and the Thunder Sound sect was enough to make Qin Shixun to not feel resentment in death.
Wu Lihu was even more depressed. They had travelled for a long time, wasted a lot of manpower, time, and in the end, reaped nothing.
Per the promise between the Thunder Sect and the Heavenly Penance Villa, they would get thirty percent of the goods when reacquired. For this thirty percent, the Thunder Sound sect had not held back on sending elite warriors to assist them.
However, the result was like using a wicker basket to draw water. Of course, one could imagine the amount of disappointment inside his heart.
And Wu Lihu’s attention had mainly been focused on the Fire Cloud Phoenix. Bao Bao and Lone had concealed their hands as they pushed Qin Wushuang out into the smoke covered sky. In the end, their movements escaped the eyes of Wu Lihu.
When Bao Bao and Lone returned to make their suicidal dive into the Wild Flame Cliff, Wu Lihu’s heart had been shocked by this scene, he had no energy to think about anything else.
…
Qin Wushuang’s heart was torn with grief while he flew away numbingly. He did not know how long he flew. Finally, he had flown out of the Crest Mountain territory.
Qin Wushuang had no other energy to pay attention to the terrain. His mind was a mess, and the only thing on his mind was the sound and appearance of Bao Bao and Lone.
Everything in the past appeared lively in his head. However, at this moment, Qin Wushuang was powerless. He only prayed silently: “Bao Bao, Lone, you will be fine! You will be fine! Do not forget that the promise we made when we entered the Xuan Yuan Mound has not yet been honored!”
When he thought of that, with a “wow” sound, he spat out a mouthful of blood. When he had rapidly escaped from the Wild Flame Cliff, it forced Qin Wushuang to activate his primordial spirit to the limit. Since he had just entered the Refined Void Martial Stage and had not had the chance to consolidate his stage, his mind had suffered tremendous shock along with Bao Bao and Lone falling into the chasm. Thus, his primordial spirit had suffered great injuries.
Qin Wushuang only felt that he was losing control of the wings on his back. With his consciousness becoming more blurry, he dropped lower to the ground with great difficulty.
Just as he was making his descent, his state of mind received a tremendous shock. Without knowing which place he had fallen to, he lost his consciousness.
