Qinghan was also forced to stop under the strong gravitational force and the pressure from up above. Even if he released all his Battle Qi, he wouldn’t be able to escape the golden palm, and all his meridians might be damaged in the process. Since he was given no chance to dodge the palm, he gave up on struggling. Rather, he kept staring at both Qingcheng and Qingwu, and his heart was overwhelmed with compunction and regrets. If it wasn’t for him, they wouldn’t have to put themselves in such great risks, because they wouldn’t have taken part in the Prefecture War in the first place. Melancholy, Qinghan found himself to be the one to blame for all the misfortune they had encountered.
However, when Qingcheng and Qingwu met with Qinghan’s anxious eyes, they both tightened their grips, for Qinghan held them both with his hands. Both the girls’ faces turned red, and their eyes were filled with affectionate romance, as if they were telling Qinghan, though silently, that they were willing to go through any difficulties, as long as they were together with him.
“Why are you guys not moving? Release your Battle Qi and use it as an armor! Drop to the ground, now!”
In the middle of their despair, Ye Qingniu roared at full strength, after which he spit out a mouthful of blood, leaving his face uncannily pale. While, at the same time, his bulging eyes looked even bigger, as if they were about to fall out in the next moment.
- Bang! -
When the golden palm was about to squash the young lords and ladies, Ye Qingniu and his battle beast ran increasingly faster, until they both collided with the force of the palm. The sound of the collision reverberated in the air. It was almost a ground-breaking explosion!
“Young lords!”
“Miss…”
“…”
In front of the blinding light caused by the explosion, some elders lost their control and exclaimed desperately. Although the young lords and ladies did release their battle Qi to form an armor, how could they sustain such a mighty blast?
“They all survived! Don’t worry. Hey, boys and girls, speed up and try your best to make it out!” Ye Qingniu’s face gradually regained some radiance, as he turned back, comforting the elders. Regardless of the blood spilled over his mouth, he widened his already very big eyes, directly dashing towards Yao Xie.
“Thank goodness!”
Ye Qingniu’s integration with his ox further accelerated his offensive ability. He followed the rule of Dark Destruction, thus showing no mercy while attacking Yao Xie. Being afraid to be hurt by Ye Qingniu, and most importantly, the arrival of Ye Tianlong, Yao Xie turned flurry, as he scolded his two fellow demons.
“Grr! Grr!”
The leopard race demon, who was dragged out by Hua Ruoruo, hurriedly dodged away, and directly dashed towards Qinghan, after hearing Yao Xie’s order.
While the other Demonic Saint, the ape race demon, broke the powerful defense of several elders, after which he also rudely spurted towards Qinghan.
“Listen, you two must run away right now. They’re coming for me!” Qinghan saw the two raging demons running in his direction, so he instantly realized it would put the two girls in unimaginable danger if he allowed them to follow him. His voice was firm, and his expression was resolute while speaking to Qingcheng and Qingwu.
“No, little Qinghan. If you die, life will be meaningless to me. Remember? You’ve said you’ll be responsible to me all my life. Don’t you ditch me halfway through!” Qingwu shook her head repeatedly, while her tears welled up from her charming eyes. She snatched Qinghan’s arm even tighter, as if she was afraid to depart from him.
“I’ll forever be your girl, even if I die, I’ll follow you as a ghost. Qinghan, don’t you dare to dissert me!” On the other side, Qingcheng spoke rather calmly compared with the teary Qingwu. She blinked at Qinghan, showing no grief or sadness, but her deep love for him.
Qinghan kept silent, though he was deeply touched by their sincere feelings. He knew, however, that it wasn’t the right time to express their romantic feelings. Neither were there any flowers or the moon around, and as such it wasn’t a place to flirt with girls. This place was now overwhelmed by surging murderous vibes. Given no better alternative, Qinghan turned them unconscious by using his integration technique.
With a flash, the exotic purplish rays added a strange element in the atmosphere. Without hesitation, Qinghan pushed them further away until they landed on the right side of the mountain.
“Miss Sainan, take them away! The demons are only here for me!”
Hearing Qinghan’s determined voice, Sainan halted in the middle, and turned around. There, she saw Qinghan staggering away in the opposite direction, trying to lead the demons away from the other young lords and ladies.
With a slight shake of her head, Sainan rushed to the spot where Qingcheng and Qingwu lay. Not far away, the leopard race demon seemed to have successfully gotten rid of Hua Ruoruo, and he ran as quick as a flash towards Qinghan…
