Countless monsters continued to flock over from the ground that they had just broken through. The creaking sounds that they made made made it seem like their ears were about to miscarry.
Even someone as heaven-defying as Gu Hua Wei could feel the pain in her arms. She probably wouldn't be able to hold on for more than three quarters of an hour.
Thinking of the yellow, disgusting teeth of the monster, Gu Ruoyun felt the malice of this world.
She still didn't want to die here!
"This isn't the way to continue fighting."
Lu Cheng was the first to frown. The worms' origins were unknown, and their numbers were difficult to handle. If this fight were to continue, they would only end up being devoured.
He secretly made a decision in his heart and no longer hesitated: "Everyone get ready, we will retreat immediately, I will cover for you!"
Gu Hua Wei Wei Wei was slightly startled when she heard this. She really didn't expect New Deer City to have such thoughts about self-sacrifice. But young man, what's the big deal if there's no worry in your eyes?
Glancing at Gu Qingcheng, who had swiftly moved away from the back of the city after hearing those words, Yun Ying did not continue to talk anymore. With a flash, she chose the darkest corner and disappeared, leaving behind only Yuhan and the monsters that were constantly swarming in from the back of the city. Miss Gu did not know what she was thinking, but she leaned close to the Yuhan, and the two of them killed their way in close proximity to the city.
Even though Lu Cheng and Yuhan were peerless geniuses, the Spiritual Energy within their bodies was constantly decreasing. If there wasn't a sufficient amount of time for them to recover, Gu Hua Wei was completely convinced that they would definitely be exhausted to death by these worms.
"Junior Sister." Lu Cheng stared gloomily at the insects within reach and softly called out to Gu Hua Wei. "There's still time. Leave quickly, you and junior brother. Don't linger around!"
"I am definitely not a person who is afraid of death." Yu Han did not turn back as he said in a firm voice, "How could he leave at such a crucial moment?" Saying so, he glanced at the pale-faced Gu Hua Wei and her expression changed slightly, "Junior Sister is a woman, you should leave."
Gu Hua Wei Wei Wei was at a loss for words.
"Hurry up!" Seeing that Gu Hua Wei still had some time to think, Lu Cheng used his spiritual power to knock down the poisonous insects around her and said, "You don't have to keep them here." Other than her, Gu Qingcheng and Yun Ying had already fled far away. There was no need for Junior Sister Gu to act like this at all.
Gu Hua slightly boasted that she was not a righteous person. In the face of all these disasters, she wanted to live, but to live like this, she had to live in the sunlight for her entire life. If any accident were to happen to those two young men who were in their prime, she thought, she would never be able to live a proper life.
She wasn't a good girl, but she didn't want to be a bad girl either.
"I'm not leaving."
"What?" Lu Cheng clearly hadn't expected her to refuse so clearly. "Junior Sister …"
"I said I'm not leaving." Gu Hua Wei looked into his eyes and said word by word, "I won't leave you behind."
New Deer City:... What was wrong with this kind of kick that would not be abandoned by the one he loved?
Gu Hua was slightly stunned. This kind of tone … "This kind of obviously touching situation had suddenly turned into something out of a vulgar melodrama. The tension disappeared in an instant, and a series of whimpers could be heard.
"Now is not the time for you to mess around." Mengmeng's jade-like face turned cold as she disagreed, "You have to go!" This forest was already filled with danger. He didn't know how much longer he could hold on, but Gu Hua Wei definitely couldn't die. She definitely couldn't.
Perhaps this was the only good thing he had ever done.
Gu Hua silently drooped her eyelids and opened her mouth: "Maybe it's more dangerous to leave?"
The expression on New Deer City's face, which had originally wanted to dissuade, suddenly froze.
"None of us know what we will face if we leave. Perhaps, it will be even more dangerous." The girl continued to cut down groups and groups of poisonous bugs, saying, "And this kind of danger will make one person unable to resist. If we are together, there might be a chance for a change."
"Junior Sister …" Lu Cheng called out to her softly.
"Also, I guarantee that I won't hold you back. I will protect myself well, but only if we can safely leave this place."
Yu Han opened his mouth but suddenly realized that he had no reason to reject such a lady.
This word had never appeared in his life before, but this time, it gave him a beautiful surprise.
"What are you waiting for?" "We can definitely get out."
The incoming bugs had already surrounded them layer by layer, calling out one after another to signal the death of their brethren. All of their resentment reminded Gu Hua of the flies that came out of nowhere in the twenty-first century. It really did look like it.
It wasn't just for some reason, the bugs were actually gathering towards Gu Hua Wei's direction, wanting to break through her defense in one go. Their loud voices made everyone's scalps tingle!
In the dense night, the spirit blades and the saber lights appeared exceptionally clear.
Even with Gu Hua Wei Wei's heaven defying abilities, she was unable to quickly settle so many things in one go. The flying sword in her hand became more and more tired, and the unspeakable weariness made her unable to control her strength.
"Watch your back!" Yuhan had been keeping a close eye on Gu Ruoyun's position. When she smiled, the dozens of bugs had already left Gu Ruoyun's location in the blink of an eye. It was already too late for her to save them!
Gu Hua's ears twitched. The attack from both the front and back had caused her to be unable to put up the best defense!
Yu Han stared at the approaching poisonous bugs and couldn't help feeling a little angry. He took a step forward, but it was obvious that he was too late!
With sword in hand, Lu Cheng raised it high up with his eyes closed, and balls of spiritual energy rushed towards him like a storm. The youth was dressed in green, and under the dim light of the yellow lamp, he actually looked like a deity descending to the mortal world!
On the sword, a bright ray of light shot straight towards the swarm of poisonous bugs. The youth opened his eyes, but there was nothing in them. His eyes were unspeakably empty.
In a split-second, the transparent light rays were like tens of thousands of faint lights, ruthlessly smashing down towards the area with the most number of poisonous bugs!
The scattered wings, the miserable shrieks and the black blood all fell down like fallen leaves. An indescribable stench filled the air.
The poisonous bugs behind Gu Hua Wei Wei had already been shot to death by the spiritual force!
In an instant, the attacking bug swarm seemed to have felt a sense of great danger as they frantically fled in the direction they came from. They were fleeing for their lives!
The green-clothed youth took a step back, a trickle of blood leaking from his thin lips. His complexion was shockingly pale!
"New Deer City!"
Gu Hua shouted, unable to speak her feelings. She waved away the venomous bugs that had yet to leave the stage and dashed towards where New Deer City was!
She had never thought that this youth, who she could not see through in the beginning, would actually save her! She thought he was a cold, almost heartless person. He pretended to be cruel, and made people wary of him. However, it was this type of person who used the greatest amount of strength to save her.
He really did not expect Lu Cheng to use this move that used up spiritual energy to retreat. There was no one in the Immortal Cultivation World who did not know the power of this move; light injuries would lead to serious injuries, heavy injuries would lead to the depletion of spiritual energy, and the death of the body and soul!
"Senior apprentice-brother …" With that thought, a hint of sincerity appeared in Yuhan's eyes as he looked at New Deer City. "I'll help you rest over there."
