Chapter 99 The game of life and death
A white giant eagle and a black giant eagle, like a flash of white and black lightning, swept across the sky, attracting countless passers-by below to stop and watch, guessing what kind of high-level mysterious beast it was. But immediately, the eagle and the eagle flew farther and higher, and soon disappeared completely on the clouds.
"Xiaoxue! Higher!"
The giant snow sculpture is covered in snow-white body. If Lan Xue expects it to fly above the clouds, she can hide her body with the help of the white clouds. But Yun Che knows very well that if the flying mysterious beasts behind him are chasing other types of flying beasts, this may be effective, but there is an eagle behind him. The eagle is the real overlord at the high altitude. In the high altitude field, nothing can escape the eagle's eyes.
The giant snow sculpture is flying higher and higher, and I don’t know how many clouds it has passed. But the storm eagle behind it is still chasing. The giant snow sculpture can fly very high, enough to ride a height of five thousand meters, but in terms of take-off altitude, it is far from comparable to the eagle. An ordinary adult eagle can fly to a height of ten thousand meters, let alone the Lingxuan level storm eagle.
Fortunately, in terms of flight, the giant snow sculpture is not weaker than the Storm Eagle. Although it is closely following it, it always maintains the same distance. The giant snow sculpture cannot throw away the Storm Eagle, and the Storm Eagle cannot catch up with the Storm Eagle for a while. However, the grade of the giant snow sculpture is lower than that of the Storm Eagle, and its endurance is naturally far from that of the Storm Eagle. This state cannot last for too long. It is only a matter of time before the Storm Eagle catches up with the Storm Eagle.
"As far as I know, this storm eagle was captured by Xiao Zong a few years ago. It seems that it has not been completely tamed, and it is not a contracted beast. If it is released, there will be a risk of escape. So if it is not a huge thing, they would not have released this storm eagle... Junior Brother Yun, what did you do to Xiao Zong?" Lan Xueruo grabbed the feathers of the giant snow sculpture tightly and said nervously.
The wind in his ears was howling like thunder. In the face of Lan Xueruo's questions, Yun Che hesitated for a moment and said truthfully: "You may not believe it if you say it... I completely destroyed Xiao Luo City and let them lose 600,000 purple Xuan coins in vain..." Yun Che paused and chose a statement that was acceptable: "It also completely destroyed their sect treasure library."
"Ah!" Lan Xueruo's beautiful eyes widened, her lips widened, and she stared at him blankly, as if she was looking at a monster.
"I swear with my appearance that these are true." Yun Che said helplessly.
"..." Lan Xueruo was speechless for a long time. She did not doubt Yun Che's words. She was sure that with the temperament of Yun Che she saw, she would not deceive her with such a ridiculous word at this time. It was because of her lack of doubt that she was extremely shocked. What was shocked was that Yun Che, a young man who entered the first level of the Xuan Realm, could actually cause the largest sect in Xinyue City to be like this alone. This was simply incredible. What was shocked was that... Abolishing Xiao Luo City and losing 600,000 purple Xuan coins was a deep hatred, destroying the sect treasure library... This was more than a deep hatred! This hatred was enough to last for the ages of this sect!
If Xiao Zong did not do anything to tear Yun Che into pieces this time, even she would not be able to see it.
No wonder Xiao Zong even released the Storm Eagle in order to chase him.
Lan Xueruo was originally thinking about whether to stop escaping and stopping to reveal her identity, which was enough to protect Yun Che from all over the world, but after Yun Che said this, she completely cut off this idea. With what Yun Che did, if it fell into Xiao Zong's hands, let alone her, she would not be able to save him even if she moved her father out.
Looking at Lan Xueruo's reaction, Yun Che felt guilty and said, "Senior Sister Xueruo, I'm sorry, I've implicated you."
Lan Xueruo shook her head gently: "This is my own choice, there is nothing to be implicated or not." She chuckled gently and comforted her: "Besides, senior sister should protect her lovely junior brother, which is what she should do."
"It's too early to say that it's imprisonment now, and we may not be able to escape. Maybe they will not chase after it for a while. Or maybe... the storm eagle suddenly became disobedient and flew in another direction. It's possible... Xiaoxue, hurry up!"
Listening to Lan Xueruo's words, Yun Che's expression flashed a little complicated. When Lan Xueruo said these words, he did not see a trace of regret, falsehood and impurities in the depths of her eyes.
He didn't want to owe anyone anything, but this time, he owed it. What he owed was a life-saving grace, or maybe it was a kind of emotion...
"By the way, Junior Brother Yun, how did you get into Xiao Zong? How did you harm Xiao Zong like this? Can you tell me?"
Lan Xueruo must be extremely nervous at this time, but when she spoke, the simplest curiosity in her eyes made Yun Che, who wanted to hide all this, unable to refuse. He thought slightly and told her: "A long time ago, I had a master. I learned some medical skills from the master, including disguise. Xiao Luocheng was seriously injured by me, and the sect must have looked for doctors all over the city, so I pretended to be a middle-aged doctor... and got into Xiao Zong..."
Yun Che's eloquence was naturally very good. He told Lan Xueruo vividly about what happened in Xiao Zongsheng these days. Of course, he did not mention things like Wang Xuan Longdan that could not be known to others. The whole process was undoubtedly wonderful. Lan Xueruo, who was listening to him, sometimes she opened her lips, sometimes she covered her mouth and laughed, sometimes she was shocked... Especially when she heard that he was mistaken for a peerless genius doctor, and when Xiao Luocheng kowtowed to worship his grandfather, she laughed and burst into tears with tears... She seemed to have forgotten that she was in danger throughout the process.
One hour passed, two hours passed...
The sky had darkened. In two hours, hundreds of miles passed by in the whistling sound. Yun Che and Lan Xueruo's ears were almost deaf. They no longer knew where they were now. They returned countless times, and they could still clearly see the shadow of the black giant eagle every time.
"Oh no! I'm about to catch up! Xiaoxue, hurry up, Xiaoxue!!"
Yun Che turned around and suddenly saw that the storm eagle behind had been closer from a thousand meters away to less than three hundred meters. Sitting on the back of the giant snow sculpture, Yun Che could clearly feel the spasm of its body... Flying with all his strength for two hours, that is, four hours, this would have been almost a miracle for a true mysterious beast. If it weren't for Lan Xueruo's contracted mysterious beast and having absolute loyalty to Lan Xueruo, it would have been impossible to stick to this point.
The grade advantage of the Storm Eagle was clearly revealed at this time. Its flight degree showed almost no sign of weakening. The occasional eagle crow sound was full of energy and resounded throughout the world.
"Senior sister, don't force it anymore. It has overdrawn its power now. If it continues, it will directly damage its life span."
As the owner of the giant snow sculpture, Lan Xueruo knew its state better than Yun Che. She bit her lip and clenched her fists hard.
The giant snow sculpture's body was spasming more and more severe, and even its figure was no longer so stable, it became shaky, and its tempest became slower and slower. The storm eagle behind it was getting closer and closer. At this time, a hideous voice came from behind them: "Little bastard, I have been chasing me for so long! This time, I see where you will run!!"
Yun Che suddenly turned around and then he realized that the Storm Eagle had chased within a hundred meters. The full picture of the Storm Eagle and the figure standing on its back could be seen clearly... It was clearly Xiao Zaihe!
"Senior sister, let Xiaoxue fly down immediately. We should do it..."
Yun Che's words suddenly stopped halfway, because an extreme sense of danger came from behind him at the moment just now. He turned around almost like lightning and saw the strange weapon raised by Xiao Zaihe on the back of the Storm Eagle.
That's...
Poisonous musket!!
Xiao Zaihe actually had a poisonous musket on his body!
Before he could react, he saw a tongue of fire suddenly shot out from the poisonous fire gun... In an instant, a deadly dangerous aura flew at a faster rate than the sound. It was originally flying towards Yun Che, but under the interference of the violent airflow, it shifted slightly and flew straight to Lan Xueruo's chest.
"Sister, be careful!!!"
Lan Xueruo didn't feel the approaching of fatal danger at all. When she finally noticed it, she had no time to react... In her enlarged pupils, a little dark thing was getting closer and closer, and then it was firmly blocked by Yun Che's body that was pounced on...
puff!!
Yun Che's left shoulder broke a big hole, and blood splashed. Although he avoided the vital points, he still underestimated the power of the poisonous musket. The moment he was hit by the poisonous musket, he almost heard the grim laughter of the god of death.
"Yun... Junior Brother Yun!!"
Lan Xueruo's body froze there. It was not until she saw Yun Che's shoulders dyed red by blood that she shouted in horror and hurriedly supported his slowly falling body.
"Senior Sister..." He could tolerate the severe pain of the wound, but the mental distraction brought by the severe injury made him feel unsupported. He pale, bit his tongue and said with difficulty: "That is... a poisonous musket, which is highly poisonous... is hit... and will die... hug me... and jump down... and jump down... and maybe die... but if you don't jump down... and you will definitely die..."
Extremely poisonous?
Looking at Yun Che's bloody shoulders, Lan Xueruo's heart trembled violently. Her eyes were filled with mist, nodded, and then hugged Yun Che's body tightly: "Okay... let's jump down."
At this moment, facing Yun Che who blocked her with his life, even though she faced thousands of meters above the sky, she still chose to follow her blindly. She hugged Yun Che, stood up on the back of the giant snow sculpture, looked at the vast underside, and whispered: "Xiaoxue, thank you for your hard work... Come back and have a good rest."
The sound fell, the mark on the back of her hand flashed, the giant snow sculpture screamed for a long time, and the huge body disappeared in the white light.
Yun Che and Lan Xueruo's bodies also fell straight down, falling to the vast underneath somewhere.
[The plot of Crescent City is just a transition. Because it is a bit too abrupt from Liuyun City to Cangfeng Imperial City at once. Yun Che's first real stage is Cangfeng Imperial City, and he should not face a small branch of the sect. But the four major sects that dominate the empire!]
