I panicked and shook the green plume with all of my strength. "Qing Ling, help Xueji! "Xueji did not want to hurt Senior Brother Duanmu!"
Qing Ling hesitated for a moment. Then, a "peng" sound was heard from within the Demon Subduing Formation as another person flew out!
It was Senior Martial Brother Duanmu! He had escaped the Demon Subduing Formation!
"Senior Martial Brother Duanmu!"
I broke free from Qing Ling's grasp, jumped out of the barrier, and rushed to Duanmu Rong's side. At this moment, a few of his fellow sect members had already arrived. They quickly surrounded him and sat down to treat his injuries.
I saw the front of his clothes covered with blood. His face was pale and he was barely breathing.
How could the two men who had been acting so affectionately just a moment ago suddenly become like this? Had Xueji really gone mad?
Senior-apprentice Brother Duanmu coughed violently, constantly spitting out blood. A layer of white frost formed on his brows and long hair, and his fingers were icy cold to the bone.
I anxiously asked, "How is Senior Brother Duanmu? Will he be alright?"
Someone answered me, "Bai Wu, don't make a fuss here! His heart veins have been injured! "
"Ah, what will happen?"
"We need to immediately save him, or we won't be able to preserve our lives!"
In this way, I was unable to help, so I moved aside to watch in silence. Qing Ling walked over and carried me back into his light green enchantment.
On the other side, Xueji seemed to have been possessed. The seven or eight Evergreen Sect experts working together to create the Demon Subduing Formation was unable to hold her back, so Qing Ling had no choice but to join the battle.
Before leaving, I tugged at his sleeves and whispered, "Qing Ling, save Xueji. She likes Senior Brother Duanmu …"
Qing Ling's gaze wavered as he glanced at Duanmu Rong, then at the Demon Subduing Formation glowing with golden light. "I'll try my best." But, don't hold too much hope. After all, she is Snowfiend … "Once the monsters go crazy, it would be good enough to kill them …"
Snipe?
My heart thumped.
After a fierce battle, Xueji had finally been subdued.
The golden light of the Demon Subduing Formation gradually scattered. I saw Xueji, who was still struggling within the formation … Her eyes were red and her facial features were twisted, as if she had gone mad. Even her silver hair was dyed in a faint red; moreover, the gentleness and nostalgia that used to be a girl had disappeared. Her eyes were filled with madness and hatred as she looked at everyone.
This vicious gaze was so fierce that I couldn't help but shiver slightly.
It's the first time I've ever seen such a look, the eyes of a real devil... It was full of bloodshed and killing, full of the darkness of the apocalypse.
However, the only fortunate thing was that even though Xueji was heavily injured, Xueji still managed to survive … As long as his life remained, there should still be a chance for him to turn back, right?
I tilted my head and gestured to Senior Brother Duanmu, who was in the middle of recuperating. There was obvious joy in Duanmu Rong's weak eyes. However, it was only a moment of happiness before he closed his eyes again.
At this moment, nine experts of the Evergreen Sect walked out of the Demon Subduing Formation, each with different expressions on their faces. Amongst them, Hall Master Qin was the most agitated. Could it be because he lost his daughter just now?
He shouted fiercely at Qing Ling, "Junior Brother Qing Ling!" Just now, during the process of casting the technique, you were biased towards Snowfiend, why is that?! "
Qing Ling said respectfully: "Senior Brother Qin, I am not biased. However, the Evergreen Sect had its own rules and regulations... Any demon that had entered the Holy Tower to be purified, to be killed, had to be approved by the five hall masters of the Evergreen Sect. Although the current Snowfiend has gone mad, she has been cultivating in the Tower for three years and hasn't done much in these three years. Today, she suddenly broke through and even killed your daughter and your disciple, there must be something amiss about this matter; Qing Ling is only following the rules of the sect and does not want to let her live, so everyone will have a chance to clarify this matter. "
Hall Master Qin said angrily, "Snowfiend killed my daughter. This is a fact right in front of your eyes. What is there to approve?!"
Qing Ling was quite sympathetic and said helplessly: "Senior Brother Qin, please grieve. However, this was a demon that Junior Martial Nephew Duanmu of the Yushui Hall had captured three years ago, so according to usual practice, she still needed to inform Junior Martial Nephew Duanmu about her life, right? Qing Ling was the one who made the decision. Please forgive her. "
Pavilion Master Qin snorted coldly and ignored Qing Ling, as well as Duanmu Rong. With an ominous glint in his eyes, he rushed towards Xue Ji who was in the Demon Subduing Formation. "Demon, you actually killed my daughter. Hand over your life …"
After he finished speaking, he suddenly used a "Heaven Collapsing Earth Shattering Fa", and the strong, whistling Fa Li charged straight at Xueji! Everyone in the Evergreen Sect knew the power of Hall Master Qin's move. Even I, a new disciple, was no exception. Everyone's faces changed slightly.
Qing Ling, who was the closest to him, was taken aback. Then, without any hesitation, he leaped up, preparing to dissolve the might of Hall Master Qin's attack with all his might! However, judging from the furious expression of Hall Master Qin, he had already used a hundred percent of his strength in this attack. It would be difficult for Qing Ling to protect Xueji, because Xueji was already seriously injured.
Just as everyone was dumbfounded, a white figure suddenly jumped over the crowd at an incredible speed into the Demon Subduing Array! Before Pavilion Master Qin's thunder-like attack arrived, he opened his arms and ferociously pounced on Xue Ji's body …
Peng! Powerful mana directly struck the Demon Subduing Formation, causing the earth to shake and the sky to change color.
"Senior Martial Brother Duanmu …"
"Duanmu Rong …"
Everyone successively let out cries of surprise. I looked carefully … It was actually Duanmu Rong who was protecting Xueji! Heavens, did he lose his life?
Qing Ling was also stunned for a moment. Then, he quickly waved his hand to remove a portion of Hall Master Qin's mana. Then, he leapt forward to support Duanmu Rong, and added the Spring Wind Transformation Art onto his body.
Duanmu Rong had suffered a palm strike from Hall Master Qin with his physical body. Even though there was a spring breeze to treat his injuries, it was still a drop in the bucket. There was no longer any point in doing so. Beneath him, Xueji's eyes were bloodshot, but she was still in a crazed state.
She impatiently lifted Duanmu Rong who was on top of her, and at the same time, heavily struck him with her palm without hesitation. This palm strike caught everyone off guard, causing Duanmu Rong's blood to flow once again …
However, from beginning to end, Xueji had revealed a crazed look. She did not even glance at Duanmu Huanghun.
Is she really crazy?
Xueji was eventually escorted into the Holy Tower, awaiting the five Hall Masters' decision. Senior Martial Brother Duanmu was sent back to the Yushui Hall to recuperate.
To call it a recuperation would be more accurate to say it was a imprisonment, because Duanmu Rong openly defended Snowfiend and violated the rules of the Evergreen Sect. According to the rules, he had to be severely punished, but since the Sect Leader saw him heavily injured and didn't know if he could keep his little life, in the end, he was sent back to the Yu Shui Hall to recuperate. However, the Sect Leader had also ordered the Hall of Yu Shui's Head to strictly restrict Duanmu Rong's personal freedom, not to mention allowing others to visit her.
When I turned into a fox and sneaked in to see him, a large number of tearful female fans were gathered outside the Yushui Hall... I went in through the dog hole in Yu Shui Tang. It's impossible for those gatekeepers to not notice me, but they might have deliberately let me off the hook … In short, I successfully met Duanmu Rong.
He was lying on the bed, heavily injured and dying, but he still said to me stubbornly, "Bai Cai, please, find a way for me to meet Xueji …"
I was both sad and surprised. "Senior Brother Duanmu, you should take good care of your injuries! How are you going to go to the Holy Tower when you're so badly hurt? "Even if I were to help you go in, Xueji is currently under the protection of the fifth hall master, and even if you go in, they won't let you in!"
Disappointment appeared in Duanmu Rong's eyes. She took out a letter from under her pillow and handed it over to me with trembling hands, "Then I'll have to ask for your help …" "Help me forward this letter to Xueji …"
He spoke with great difficulty, so I hurriedly received the letter. My heart ached a little. "Senior Brother, why did you write to Xueji when Xueji hurt you so badly?"
