Chapter 640 – The Scum Is Edgy
"Sister!" Cui Xiao called as she ran to the infirmary.
As soon as they arrived in their camp, they heard Sun Ri's anguished cries. Everyone's heart sank and they immediately rushed after Cui Xiao, taking out the medicinal herbs that they have found on their way to give to Cui Xiang.
But, before any of them could get closer to the tent serving as the infirmary, they suddenly froze when they felt hostile qi attacking them.
Their eyes widened in shock. "This is…!" their pupils shrank as they immediately retreated outside the range of the hostile qi to not agitate it, lest it would worsen the conditions of the Shanliangde Sect disciples, as well as Wu Tie, inside.
"Their qi is chaotic!" Wen Yan's expression darkened.
"But… this is less serious than my condition before." Fei Yinzi spoke.
They looked at him. Seeing him nodded, they sighed in relief.
"How do we get in?" Tang Li anxiously asked.
"Where is Zhu Xi?" Li Yan asked as he looked around.
Wen Yan's pupils shrank when he noticed that Zhu Xi didn't appear. His heart sank. "Could it be… something happened to Chen Wu's side?!" he asked.
Their expression changed as their hearts skipped a beat. This is really not good!
"Wen Wen." Fei Yinzi called as he gave the herbs he collected to Wen Wen. "You have a water root. Even if I have an ice root, it is an aggressive root compared to your passive water root. You go inside and help Xiang-jie and Chen Yu." He said.
"We will go after Zhu Xi and look for Chen Wu's group." Wen Yan spoke as they all gave their medicinal herbs to Wen Wen.
"Take care!" Wen Wen said and immediately ran towards the infirmary. As expected the hostile qi from the Shanliangde Sect disciples and Wu Tie didn't attack him.
They all sighed in relief.
"Cui Xiao." Wen Yan called.
"Yes." Cui Xiao answered.
"You stay here and lay formation in case the hostile qi would become more aggressive. It might disrupt our barriers." Wen Yan told her.
"Yes." Cui Xiao nodded in understanding.
Wen Yan then turned to Fei Yinzi, Tang Li and Li Yan and was about to speak when He Shun, who was forgotten along with Qi Lan, spoke.
"Uhm… what about us?" He Shun asked.
Wen Yan turned to him. "Cui Xiang has no time to help Qi Lan. Cui Xiao will help you treat his wounds. You stay here and protect them two." He answered.
He Shun nodded in understanding. "Be safe." He told them and heavily sighed. What a disaster that befell them all! He thought in lament.
Wen Yan turned back to Fei Yinzi, Tang Li and Li Yan and nodded at them. The three of them nodded back before they all flew away.
"Er Zi." Wen Yan called.
"Yes." Fei Yinzi answered as he took out a talisman.
"What's that?" Tang Li curiously asked.
Li Yan also feels curious but he restrained himself because of the current situation. Only the idiot Tang Li would ask despite the tense atmosphere.
"Tracing Talisman." Fei Yinzi answered.
Tang Li and Li Yan were shocked. But, they didn't ask Fei Yinzi for details since Fei Yinzi is busy. They saw him bit his index finger and draw a character on the talisman using his own blood, overlapping the characters and other symbols on the talisman.
Then, they saw Fei Yinzi wrote another character with his blood. They can see that Fei Yinzi's face started to turn pale as time passed and the more characters added. Tang Li and Li Yan knows that it was the names of his fellow disciples he is writing, including Chen Wu, Wu Lian, Ling Yun and the rest.
"Kuh!" Fei Yinzi coughed blood in the air, and it stained his verdant green uniform, making his uniform look unsightly now.
"Er Zi!" Tang Li and Li Yan cried.
But, Wen Yan's expression remained calm. However, his eyes are frighteningly cold.
"I am fine. My condition is better now since my cultivation increased." Fei Yinzi assured them as he roughly wiped the blood off his lips. "Shixiong." He called Wen Yan. "They… are all gathered in one place." He told him.
Tang Li and Li Yan were shocked. "What?!" they exclaimed.
"Zhu-shixiong is also going their way." Fei Yinzi continued.
Wen Yan clenched his fists.
"Zhu-shixiong must not had the time to inform us after he saw the signal." Fei Yinzi took a deep breath. "And… where we were before were too far from where they all now." He said.
Tang Li and Li Yan fell silent.
Fei Yinzi closed his eyes. "The demonic qi is too heavy… way too heavy so it took me a long time to look for their qi, each one of them, to find where they are now." He explained.
Tang Li and Li Yan now understood. That was why Fei Yinzi coughed blood! The demonic qi was blocking him from tracing Chen Wu and the others! For the demonic qi to block more than ten people's qi… how frightening could it be? Just thinking about it, they subconsciously shuddered in fright.
But, they can't retreat. They have to save their friends!
"That way!" Fei Yinzi pointed to them the direction after he regained his strength and has now accurately traced where the others are.
If only Ling Yun was with them, Ling Yun would have told them that the demonic qi in the place where they are going looks like a big storm that covers the sky!
…
"FCK!" the sect leaders can't help but curse due to agitation.
Everyone is on edge as they watched Chen Wu's group joined by Su Mi's group. Because Su Mi's group hasn't dropped their Cleansing Stones, they can now see the despairing battle that the participants face. Everyone felt their hearts were gripped tight by the demons that the participants are currently battling against with.
"How… Cheng Sheng… when can he wake up?" Pai Lie anxiously asked when he saw that Cheng Sheng is still unconscious. "He can see the thick demonic qi! We have to know if the participants can break through!" he said.
Tang Teng who saw Tang Li is also on his way to the hell-like place, almost had a heart attack. He clutched his chest tight as he weakly fell on a seat with his face pale in horror. Kang Ce almost had a similar reaction with Tang Teng when he saw Li Yan is also going to the despairing battlefield with Fei Yinzi and the others. he clenched his fists and wanted to enter the special space and help Li Yan!
Li Nanzi turned and saw Kang Ce's stormy expression. He sighed in distress. Li Yan is the most promising disciple of their sect in this generation. Naturally, he doesn't want anything to happen to Li Yan.
"Cheng-shidi still needs to rest." Fei Yin said with an expression colder than before. Before any of them could speak, he continued. "Only when he is in his best condition could he help everyone best." He told them.
They finally shut up. They also know that Cheng Sheng is the one most tired here. After all, Cheng Sheng used a talisman that they all are unfamiliar about. So, it is not surprising that Cheng Sheng would be weakened.
But, the participants also need him ah! What should they do now?! They thought as they paced back in forth due to anxiety.
"Right… Sun Yu… is there still no news from sect leader Sun?" He Run asked.
Everyone started. They now remembered that Sun Yu and Feng Mo took the fake sword cultivator to Wu Bai so that they can refine that culprit as a puppet and extract information from him. Li Tian accompanied them since Feng Mo is rash and can't control his temper while Sun Yi who usually can control his temper now became rash because he is being driven mad because of what is happening to his disciples.
Everyone sighed in distress. Who could expect for all these to happen? It is a disaster one after another! It is already fortunate that all of them haven't become mad yet! Not only do they have to worry about the foreign enemies, they also have to worry about their disciples, who are now in great danger because of the foreign enemies!
As they have thought before, to defeat an army, one has to defeat the general first! Cheng Sheng has said this before as one of his strategies.
"It seems like these bastards really are pushing their luck!" Qian Shan gnashed his teeth in anger. His eyes are bloodshot as he looked at Qian Jue and Qian Meng, especially Qian Meng who has suffered many wounds but still refuses to surrender and continues to fight!
"I will kill that bastard!" Jing Rui vowed as he clenched his fists. He is referring to the leader of the enemies.
Jing Cheng, Jing Bai, and even the usual jokester Jing Hei are angry as they watched Jing De and Jing Xu who are badly beaten.
