Yuwen Jinghong and Wu Ming were stunned. “H-her Majesty is still in the gully and hasn’t come up yet—”
Jian Fengchi followed the duo’s gazes and vaguely saw two figures sitting cross-legged. He then clenched his teeth. “That’s an illusion!”
“What?!” When they heard this, the duo was stunned. When they looked again, they indeed saw two figures exploding together in the chaotic force battle.
This was indeed not them!
“Why is it like this?” Yuwen Jinghong and Wu Ming glanced at each other.
For the past few days, they had been stationed here the whole time. They also personally saw them going down and sitting beside Jian Fengchi and Qiang Wanzhou respectively. In between, all their figures didn’t even move!
Why did it suddenly become an illusion?
Jian Fengchi furrowed his brows tightly. “There are many spaces below, and it’s easy to cause one to hallucinate. The two of them should still be stuck below…”
Everything was fine originally, and Mu Hongyu had brought him to escape from that space. But with the pressure from the surrounding forces, they couldn’t directly escape and barged into another space.
After similarly struggling a few times, they finally reached the top when the space wasn’t so chaotic.
Previously, they could even see Yuwen Jinghong’s group of two waiting above the gully, and they could successfully rush up in a few steps! But at this point, the many spaces below suddenly started exploding for some reason.
The violent forces almost swallowed the duo!
Mu Hongyu risked her life to forcefully bring Jian Fengchi out, but she had suffered too many attacks from the exploding spaces, causing her to be severely injured. She had the Faint Yuan Body and had a natural intimacy and sensitivity to space. If she already became like this when she escaped, what about Chu Liuyue and Qiang Wanzhou?
“Then, what should we do?” Yuwen Jinghong’s group of two also noticed the severity of the situation, and their hearts hung high.
“Wait a minute! Where’s the legendary three-eyed eagle?” yelled Wu Ming suddenly.
The few of them looked over and realized that the gully was empty. That gigantic legendary three-eyed eagle had also disappeared!
At this point, the explosions below had greatly abated before completely disappearing.
The gully was in a mess. Stones flew everywhere, and dust flew up, but there was nobody around!
“Quickly, look! What’s that!” Yuwen Jinghong suddenly gasped.
They saw that a silver force spiral had suddenly appeared on that empty ground! That silver spiral kept expanding toward the surroundings, and it started spinning very quickly.
Just when the few of them were dazed and nervous, a figure suddenly flew out from the spiral!
“It’s Qiang Wanzhou!” Wu Ming saw that person’s face instantly!
Due to the impact of the spiral’s force, Qiang Wanzhou flew out and directly went toward one of the cliffs!
With his momentum, he would definitely be injured if he collided with the cliff, even if he didn’t die.
At this point, a red figure rapidly flew out—it was Tuan Zi!
They saw it spread its wings as it quickly flew across midair! The next moment, it appeared in front of Qiang Wanzhou and directly intercepted him!
Before the few of them could even see what happened clearly, Tuan Zi had already grabbed Qiang Wanzhou and flew back. Then, it flapped its wings and carefully placed Qiang Wanzhou down.
Yuwen Jinghong immediately went forward.
Qiang Wanzhou’s eyes were tightly shut. He was covered in blood, but he was still breathing.
“I think he fainted.” Yuwen Jinghong turned around and looked at Jian Fengchi.
Mu Hongyu tugged at Jian Fengchi’s sleeves, hinting to him to put her down and check on Qiang Wanzhou.
Jian Fengchi hesitated for a moment before putting Mu Hongyu beside Tuan Zi and softly reminding her at the same time, “Your external injuries are more serious. You mustn’t move, do you understand?”
Mu Hongyu nodded seriously as she smiled and waved her fist. “Don’t worry! I’ve suffered even more severe injuries! Am I not doing well now?”
When she previously toed the line between life and death, she even awakened the Faint Yuan Body suddenly!
Jian Fengchi’s always smiling and flirtatious face was currently cold and nonchalant as he stared at her quietly.
When he didn’t smile, he always seemed especially stern, and it exerted a suppression on other people so that they wouldn’t dare to disobey him.
Mu Hongyu instantly felt very awkward and even a little guilty as she retracted her waving fists and said softly, “…I know.”
Jian Fengchi’s expression then became gentler. Looking at her unkempt face, he used his sleeves to wipe away the blood from the corner of her lips.
Wiping halfway, he met with Mu Hongyu’s confused and strange gaze. He then realized what he was doing and stopped his actions.
After that, he nonchalantly retracted his hands.
However, Mu Hongyu kept staring at him. Her almond eyes were too clean and pure, so Jian Fengchi felt embarrassed for once.
He averted his gaze, knitted his brows, and had a look of contempt. “You’re covered in blood. So ugly.”
Then, he hurriedly turned around and walked toward Qiang Wanzhou.
Mu Hongyu touched her own face. She wasn’t angered by Jian Fengchi’s words and instead found it quite strange. Or should she say… his entire person was weird.
Perhaps it was an illusion, but she felt that Jian Fengchi always seemed a little guilty when facing her.
…
Jian Fengchi didn’t dare to turn around and look at Mu Hongyu again. He walked over, took Qiang Wanzhou’s pulse, and knitted his brows.
“How is he doing?” asked Yuwen Jinghong carefully.
“His force has already been exhausted, and his internal injuries are very serious.” Once Jian Fengchi said this, everyone present became worried.
Then, they heard Jian Fengchi continue, “But.. his body is very special. It seems like… there’s a force slowly exuding…”
Jian Fengchi didn’t speak in detail.
He could feel that there was a shocking coldness in Qiang Wanzhou’s body. This harsh intent seemed to have frozen a large portion of the latter’s force.
Jian Fengchi could vaguely sense that some of the latter’s strength was suppressed by a seal.
Qiang Wanzhou had internal injuries at this moment, so it coincidentally shook this portion of his force.
If I haven’t guessed wrongly, this will cause Qiang Wanzhou’s body to strengthen greatly. Jian Fengchi produced two pills and let his injured companion take them one by one. “These two pills can temporarily stabilize his internal condition. We’ll talk about the rest later.”
Wu Ming asked, “So it means that he’s not in grave danger for now?”
Jian Fengchi hesitated for a moment before nodding. As long as… the seal in his body isn’t completely solved, he should be safe.
Hearing him say this, the few people at the side each heaved a slight sigh of relief.
“Qiang Wanzhou is out, but where is Her Majesty?” Yuwen Jinghong looked down and saw that the spiral had actually disappeared!
Very quickly, everything below calmed down. Chu Liuyue had also disappeared without a trace!
Shoo!
Right at this moment, Tuan Zi hollered loudly as it lowered its body and put down its wings.
Wu Ming was dazed for a moment and then asked with uncertainty, “Is it… asking us to go up?”
