Volume 6: Overseas Chapter 293: Rescue
The peaks are strange and steep, and human figures can be seen rising and falling.
The two figures swooped down to the top of the mountain, which also meant that they were completely trapped in a desperate situation and had reached a dead end.
In front of them was a steep cliff of unknown depth. Gusts of wind blew up from below, causing their long black hair to fly and their clothes to flutter.
After several rounds of fighting, both of them were already covered with wounds and their clothes were stained with blood.
"Godmother, there's no way out."
The person who spoke was Pharmacist Li.
Although the woman looked embarrassed, the smile on her face remained unchanged, as if she was not afraid of death or pain.
She is not afraid of life, so how could she be afraid of death?
For some people, the easiest thing in the world is death. There are thousands of ways to live, but nothing can compare to death.
Li Muchan's life was difficult, Shangguan Xiaoxian's life was painful, but she was tired of living.
The first two still have ambitions, pursuits, and beliefs that support them to move forward, but where is her belief as Pharmacist Li?
She didn't like fame or wealth, didn't covet power, and had no relatives or friends. If Gongzi Yu hadn't brought her out of Miaojiang, she might have spent the rest of her life growing old in that sunless insect valley.
But what if it comes out?
These people are vying for power, full of conspiracy and intrigue, with endless calculations.
If she had known this, she would rather have lived with poisonous insects in the Insect Valley than stepped into this treacherous world.
However, she was still thinking about someone in her heart, missing a man.
She already has some regrets...
In the past twenty years of her life, she has never regretted anything, but this incident is the only one that she can't let go of, and it may be the biggest regret of her life.
During the battle in the Chang'an Underground Palace, why did she, who was supposed to stand behind Li Muchan, leave first when they were about to escape?
She was obviously the person closest to Li Muchan, and was obviously just one step away, within reach, but at the critical moment, she missed it.
She had clearly vowed that she would stand behind Li Muchan, advance and retreat together, live and die together, but in the end she did not do it.
On the contrary, Shangguan Xiaoxian, the person whom Li Muchan regarded as his rival, actually fought side by side with him in the end and came out alive.
She not only made a mistake in this step, but also missed a person.
But Pharmacist Li never resented anything, not even Shangguan Xiaoxian.
Hating someone is so tiring. Some people hate for their entire lives, gritting their teeth, chewing their bones and swallowing their marrow, living a life neither human nor ghost. They hate to the end and never close their eyes until they die...
Like her mother.
So living is tiring enough, so why hate?
She was just a little unwilling before she died. If only she had met that person earlier.
She really wanted to see what Li Muchan looked like when he was a good person.
Sun Xiaohong looked at the bottomless cliff below, where clouds and mist were swirling. Her eyes moved slightly and she couldn't help but sigh, "Girl, it seems we can't go back."
"Humph, you killed so many of us, and you still want to go back?"
"Haha, run, just keep running."
"They killed so many of our brothers. We must avenge them no matter what."
"Since I went overseas, I haven't seen any Central Plains women for quite a while. I finally caught two of them. I can't kill them so quickly. At least... hehehe..."
…
Before the two of them could catch their breath, more than 20 figures were chasing them on the road.
Seeing that they were in a desperate situation with no way out, they all burst into wild laughter, looking very happy.
Sun Xiaohong is fine, as she is only good at fists, kicks and sticks. Although she is powerful, two fists cannot beat four hands, so she is not difficult to deal with.
However, Pharmacist Li's method of controlling insects and expelling parasites really caused them to suffer a great loss.
They probably killed almost all the poisonous insects on the island, but the price was heavy casualties. The two of them took them several days to deal with, which was really difficult to deal with.
"Bitch, grandpa has long told you not to fall into my hands. Today I will make you know what it means to be unable to live or die."
Some people were bitten by poisonous insects and their faces were bruised and swollen, and they kept roaring.
The three leading Persian masters suddenly said in a cold voice: "Let's fight quickly and decisively to prevent any accidents."
"An accident?" The others laughed nonchalantly, "What could possibly happen in this place? Could someone save them?"
Someone sneered, "I know what you're up to. You're in cahoots with that Little Li Flying Dagger, right? Might I tell you that the flying swordsman Ah Fei and another flying knife wielder were forced into the depths of this sea by another group long before you did... So, just be good and I'll let you suffer less."
Sun Xiaohong's expression remained unchanged as she said gently, "Girl, are you afraid?"
Pharmacist Li shook his head.
The two looked at each other and slowly backed away.
It is better to be buried in the sea than to be humiliated.
Without any hesitation, Sun Xiaohong glanced at the enemies who were closing in on them, turned around, grabbed Li Yaoshi, and jumped off the cliff.
Those people hurried to the edge of the cliff, looked down, and immediately their legs trembled and went weak, and they collapsed to the ground in fear.
If you fall from such a height, even your body will be hard to find.
Those two are definitely dead.
“What a pity.”
"It's a bargain for them."
A group of people laughed strangely.
At this moment, Pharmacist Li and Sun Xiaohong were falling rapidly, with the wind whistling in their ears and clouds flowing backwards around them.
The two of them no longer held out hope of survival and held each other tightly. There was no fear in their eyes, only a few sighs.
Sun Xiaohong wanted to speak again, but as soon as she opened her mouth, her voice was immediately washed away by the strong wind. In the end, she could only hold Pharmacist Li's hand tightly with eyes full of pity.
Apart from the sound of the wind, the two felt that there was no other sound between heaven and earth, so they simply closed their eyes.
But they did not see that there was a fairy-like figure on the sea, moving with a body movement that was difficult to describe in words, displaying an extraordinary speed that no one in ancient and modern times could match, covering the thunder and surpassing the lightning, standing alone between heaven and earth, flying in the air, and coming on the sword.
Here it comes.
Before the figure approached the dangerous peak, he suddenly flew into the air, drew a circle in the air with one hand, and lifted his palm upwards.
With one palm strike, the wind and clouds changed, shocking the world.
Pharmacist Li and Sun Xiaohong were falling , but their falling speed suddenly slowed down, and they stopped in mid-air strangely and briefly.
The figure pushed out with one palm, and leaped up again in the air, rising up ten or twenty feet like a wisp of green smoke. His right palm was held up with the force of holding up the sky, and it moved along the steep cliff that was thousands of feet high, climbing straight up.
Pharmacist Li and the other two were still in shock and astonishment. Before they could react, their bodies flew upwards again.
The wind surged and the sea of clouds rolled.
Everyone on the top of the mountain was still sneering, but out of the corner of their eyes they saw the fog under the cliff suddenly rolling up. They were wondering what was going on, but they didn't expect two people to fall out of it.
The scene suddenly became dead silent.
These two people were none other than Li Yaoshi and Sun Xiaohong who had just jumped down. Why did they come back?
After a brief moment of surprise, everyone's eyes were filled with murderous intent, and without thinking, they all attacked.
However, two people were in front and one was behind.
A figure slowly emerged from the bottom of the cliff, with clouds and energy flowing and gathering around him, as if they were real, carrying this person. Amidst the shocked expressions of everyone , he broke through the strong wind and stood on the top.
The moment it appeared, the flowing clouds suddenly dispersed, and wherever they passed, screams were heard, turning into a final wail.
"ah!"
The four people nearby were hit by a huge wave and flew backwards. Before they hit the ground, they exploded in the air.
Blood mist gushed out, cloth fluttered, but the body was torn into pieces.
In this way, everyone heard a sound that was neither loud nor soft.
"retreat!"
