Chapter 11: An Chen's Decision
In the cold black fog, countless shrill voices kept echoing in my ears, which was unsettling.
——Swish swish!!
Three evil creatures jumped out of the black mist. Their lower bodies were like humans, their heads were like wolf-dogs but hairless, their bodies were blood red, their canine teeth were intertwined, and their eyes were glowing green. When they smelled the smell of strangers, they immediately salivated.
They slowly approached An Chen and the others and surrounded them in the middle of the black mist.
"Evil-blooded demon dog?" Xiao Ronger said with a gloomy face.
An Chen asked: "What is this?"
"You are such a country bumpkin!" Li Xi glanced at Ning Chen and said, "This evil blood demon dog was raised by living people. The more resentment the deceased had during his lifetime, the greater the power of this dog."
An Chen was shocked after hearing this. He didn't expect that Zou and Zheng were so vicious that they would feed such an evil creature in a living person.
At this moment, the three evil dogs kept narrowing the distance. Xiao Ronger saw this and shouted: "You two guard my back, I will take the main attack!"
"Um!"
--hold head high!!
The three evil dogs suddenly shouted and charged towards the three of them.
However, both Xiao Ronger and Li Xi's swordsmanship are authentic Xuanmen, and every move is flawless. They can pick, stab, sweep, and chop. Their sword moves are dazzling and they keep hitting out. For a while, the evil dog cannot break through.
But the evil dog's physical body is extremely powerful. Even if it is injured, its power is not reduced at all, and its combat power is amazing!
What's even more surprising is that although An Chen is only at the middle stage of the Cave Condensation Realm, his moves are weird and his route is tricky. Although his right arm was cut open by the evil dog's sharp claws, and there was blood dripping from his right arm.
But it also prevented the evil dog from breaking through his defense for a while.
Xiao Ronger and Li Xi were both shocked.
Such a move is obviously an inertial action that has been tempered for many times. It is impossible for a person who has cultivated in the middle stage of the Condensation Realm to have such strength.
Xiao Ronger frowned slightly. It seemed that this young man had a lot of secrets. For the first time, she had doubts about her decision. If she led a wolf into the house, then she, Xiao Ronger, would be the sinner of the Jingshan Sword Sect!
At this time, An Chen didn't know what she was thinking, but he was also secretly surprised.
Could it be that I used to be a swordsman? If not, why do I seem to be so good every time I make a move? I even use the moves before I think, as if they have been refined over time!
Unknowingly, An Chen fell into memories, but what was terrible was that at this moment, his mental lake suddenly surged, and a huge pain slowed down his hand.
--hiss!!
Another pain of flesh tearing came from An Chen's shoulder, and he took a breath of cold air. He saw an evil creature's claw cut open his shoulder muscle by more than three inches, and the bone was clearly visible.
"Are you okay?" Xiao Ronger asked.
An Chen was sweating profusely and breathing rapidly. He shook his head without looking back, indicating that it was okay.
However, as the battle continued, the defense on his side could not be sustained. Finally, an evil dog pinned him to the ground with its sharp claws and opened its bloody mouth to bite his head into pieces.
But what greeted it was a long sword that was as sharp as clay. The evil dog bit the sword and cut off his jaw. Only then did An Chen narrowly escape death.
Fortunately, Xiao Ronger discovered it in time and saved his life.
However, the moment Xiao Ronger was helping An Chen, a ghostly figure appeared beside her, with sharp claws and swords, leaving three blood marks on Xiao Ronger's waist sword in an instant.
"Master!" Li Xi shouted, but she was also entangled by the evil dog and could not escape.
Xiao Ronger's face turned pale. She only felt a cold spiritual energy entering her body, and her breath began to become chaotic.
"Hahaha……"
A burst of laughter came, and the figure revealed its true form, it was Old Ghost Zou, and beside him was Zheng Tong.
Their breaths were equally unstable, but fortunately their injuries were lighter. Old Ghost Zou smiled evilly and said, "Doesn't it feel bad to be poisoned by me? If you give up resistance, I can be your lifeline, but..." Zou
The old ghost looked at Xiao Ronger's figure and said with a hint of evil fire in his eyes: "But you have to serve me well, hahahaha..."
"You are wishful thinking!" Xiao Ronger said angrily. She endured the pain, grabbed An Chen and headed towards Li Xi.
Zheng Tong said quickly: "Chase, don't let them run away!"
Xiao Ronger came to Li Xi. Her whole body was filled with spiritual energy. After cutting off the head of the evil dog that attacked Li Xi with one sword, her breath suddenly became weak.
She held on and said: "Li Xi, go quickly! Go to Jingshan Sword Sect for help!"
Li Xi's eyes were red at this time, and her heart was in chaos. She had never seen such a scene after having a smooth journey.
She shook her head and choked out: "No, Master, I will be with you even if I die."
Xiao Ronger showed a smile with difficulty and said: "I know your intentions, Master has his own way, but if you don't leave now, then the three of us will really only meet in hell."
Li Xi was stunned on the spot for a moment.
"Hurry up! It's too late if you don't leave." Xiao Ronger urged loudly.
Li Xi glanced at Xiao Ronger, but tears couldn't stop flowing out. Xiao Ronger said again: "Stop crying. Remember, An Chen and I's lives depend entirely on you."
Then Xiao Ronger placed the sword across his chest, and the power of his spiritual consciousness made the long sword shine with dazzling light, and then he cut a long and narrow passage out of the black mist with a single stroke of the sword.
"Let's go!" Xiao Ronger shouted to Li Xi again. He himself had no strength at all and half-knelt on the ground, relying only on the sword in his hand to hold himself up.
Li Xi glanced at Xiao Ronger and knew that at this critical moment, she must not act willfully. She gritted her teeth and immediately retreated towards this passage desperately.
"You didn't blame me for choosing to let Li Xi escape, right?" Xiao Ronger looked at An Chen with a hint of apology in his eyes.
An Chen shook his head without any blame.
Xiao Rong said: "You and I are destined, I still have some strength, I will stop them later, you can escape by yourself..."
However, before Xiao Rong'er could say anything, she felt her body light up and An Chen picked her up instantly.
"What are you doing? If you don't run away, there will be no chance." Xiao Ronger said with a frown.
An Chen smiled and said, "I'm also a man, so why should I just watch you die?" After that, he made a decision that surprised Xiao Ronger.
I saw him holding her and heading straight to the depths of Laolong Mountain!
As soon as they left, Old Ghost Zou and Zheng Tong arrived. The two of them were experienced in the world. Although they didn't see each other, they knew where they were going just by looking at the blood on the ground.
Zou Laogui and Zheng Tong both formed seals, and saw the black mist being sucked into their mouths again. When they saw a beheaded and injured evil dog, they both felt heartache.
They secretly fed hundreds of lives to this evil dog before they succeeded. Although it has no spiritual intelligence, its physical strength is also extremely strong.
Old Ghost Zou looked at the blood on the ground and said fiercely: "They must repay this loss with blood!"
Zheng Tong also said with a gloomy face: "Now they have entered the depths of Laolong Mountain, which is the territory of monsters."
Old ghost Zou said: "What are you afraid of? Now that they are seriously injured, they can't run far even if they want to come. Besides, now you and I have offended the Jingshan Sword Sect. If we don't kill them, once the news leaks, it will be terrible for both of us.
Disaster!"
Zheng Tong nodded. Now he had an arrow on the bowstring and had to fire it. His heart skipped a beat, and he and Old Ghost Zou flew towards the depths of Laolong Mountain!
…
The early morning sunlight passed through the thick leaves in the jungle, leaving only a few mottled light and shadows. Then the chirping of insects and birds came one after another.
However, An Chen did not relax at all. In addition to destroying traces of his whereabouts along the way, he was always alert to dangers that might arise at any time.
He picked off a leaf, collected some dew from the surrounding area, and put it into Xiao Ronger's mouth.
At this time, Xiao Ronger's face was pale and extremely weak, and the wound on her waist was still getting worse. Even An Chen could feel a cold breath flowing through her body.
He took off his robe and covered Xiao Ronger, then held her hand and transferred the little spiritual energy in his body into her body.
A blush flashed across Xiao Rong'er's face. She wanted to withdraw her hand, but An Chen's grip was too tight, so she had to give up.
"You don't have to be like this. If you encounter danger, you can still protect yourself with this little spiritual energy."
"Don't talk, trust me, we will be fine."
Xiao Ronger looked at An Chen's serious face and couldn't help but laugh for a moment. She felt that as a master of the Yanshen Realm and the Jingshan Sword Sect's Nanfeng Sword Head, she was not as courageous as a young man at this time.
An Chen also smiled slightly, not knowing where his courage came from, but he felt a voice deep in his heart.
She is giving herself unlimited power.
An Chen couldn't help singing: "The dew is cold in the late autumn and the night is long. The water is like pearls among the grass. Although the lotus leaves are broken and have thousands of faces, I will pick lotus roots tomorrow morning."
"Who taught you the Han Dew Song?" Xiao Ronger asked with a smile.
"I don't know, I don't even remember what happened before, but this song is like a vine that has penetrated my heart. I can't forget it."
An Chen said softly, with a hint of sadness in his eyes unconsciously.
Xiao Ronger smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to be quite sentimental."
An Chen shook his head. He collected himself. This was not the time to think about these things. He continued to carry Xiao Ronger on his back and moved deeper.
Not long after they left, two figures appeared in the hiding place.
Old Ghost Zou sniffed the air and looked at the broken branches, and concluded that they had just left.
"Keep chasing, even if this old Longshan is a dragon's pond and a tiger's den, we have to break into it. If they escape, you and I will be dead."
