Chapter 102 - 102 Senior, Is It You?
102 Senior, Is It You?
At this moment, in a valley in the Seven Star Holy Land.
Cen Qingci and the rest were running away quickly. Their expressions were filled with intense vigilance and wariness.
Not long ago, they were surrounded and killed by a team of Seven Stars Sect’s disciples. It was not easy for them to break out of the encirclement.
Originally, there were more than ten of them. But now, there were only four people left. There were many bloodstains on Cen Qingci’s face, and her white clothes had already turned into bloody clothes.
Although it was not her own blood, most of it was the blood of the Red Tiger Sect’s disciples beside her.
“Sister Li…” She looked at the purple-haired woman who was panting heavily in front of her. Her face was pale, and there was a shocking wound on her abdomen. Blood was constantly flowing out of the wound.
The other party had been severely injured in order to save her. As the purple-haired woman pressed her hand on the wound on her abdomen, she looked around warily. She knew that the disciples of the Seven Stars Sect were still chasing after them.
Their crisis had not been resolved.
“These bastards from the Seven Stars Sect!”
Fan Li’s eyes were filled with killing intent. She had never expected that the Seven Stars Sect would adopt a strategy of grouping up and killing. After entering the Seven Star Holy Land, these Seven Star Sect’s disciples did not search for opportunities immediately. Instead, they gathered together to kill the surrounding people.
If not for the fact that she was the core disciple of the Red Tiger Sect and had some life-saving items on her, she would definitely not have been able to break out of the encirclement this time.
After all, among these Seven Stars Sect disciples, there were late-stage Qi Martial Realm experts.
This was not something they could resist at all.
Although they had fought their way out of the encirclement, the crisis was still not resolved. Once the disciples of the Seven Stars Sect caught up to them, they would still die.
“However, even if I die, I will let them die with me!!” A hint of ruthlessness and madness appeared on Fan Li’s face. “If they catch up to us later, I’ll try my best to delay them. At that time, you can take the opportunity to escape.” She said to Cen Qingci, Wang Luo and Yang Zhen behind her.
“But…” Cen Qingci wanted to say something.
She suddenly interrupted.
“Cut the crap. Do whatever I say!”
At this moment, a figure suddenly caught up from afar.
“Damn it! They actually came so quickly!”
Fan Li’s face darkened. She tore off one of her sleeves and wrapped it around the wound on her abdomen. She held the broad heavy saber in her hand tightly. She said in a deep voice, “I’ll block him. Find an opportunity to escape!!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the figure in the distance suddenly caught up from behind. He turned into a thin middle-aged man with an ancient sword on his back.
A powerful late-stage Qi Martial realm fluctuation spread out from his body, giving the four of them an extremely strong pressure. His gaze was as cold as lightning. He glanced at the four of them coldly.
The focus was on Fan Li and Cen Qingci.
“The core disciples of the Red Tiger Sect… Heh, I didn’t expect to obtain such a harvest this time.” He reached out to grab the ancient sword on his back and gently pulled it out. The tip of the sword pointed at the four of them. “You should have used up all the treasures on you, right? Then…”
Before he could finish speaking,
Fan Li had already let out a furious roar. The Qi Force in her body surged and erupted. She dragged the broad saber in her hand and rushed out like a crazy tiger.
Boom!
Under the roar, Fan Li’s figure, which had just rushed out, flew back like a tattered sack. She fell heavily to the ground. The broad heavy saber in her hand left her hand and rolled in the air before stabbing into the ground. She was covered in blood. Most of the bones were shattered.
After falling to the ground, she could not stand up again.
The difference in strength between the two sides was too great. Even if she wanted to stall for time, she could not do it.
The middle-aged man from the Seven Stars Sect stared coldly at Fan Li, who was lying on the ground. Previously, the other party had relied on various treasures to escape from him. Now, without those treasures, it was as easy as crushing ants for him to deal with these four people.
He could not be bothered to say anything else. He raised the ancient sword in his hand. “Die!” He slashed down.
Sword light wreaked havoc.
Puff!
A completely black hand pierced through the middle-aged man’s chest.
The middle-aged man from the Seven Stars Sect widened his eyes. His eyes were filled with shock, confusion, and disbelief. He lowered his head with difficulty. He looked at the black arm that had pierced through his chest. The arm was still stained with a large amount of blood and fragments of his internal organs.
He wanted to look back. However, the rapid loss of life no longer allowed him to do such a thing. His legs went limp and his entire body collapsed forward, no longer breathing.
Plop!
As the middle-aged man from the Seven Stars Sect fell, Cen Qingci and the rest saw a person had appeared out of nowhere not far behind the other party. It was a tall and sturdy person wearing a wide black robe and a hood. His face was covered by a black mask, and his appearance could not be seen clearly.
At this moment, his black robe was fluttering in the night wind.
At the same time, black shadows floated beside him. Although these black shadows were humanoid and had clear facial features, their expressions were dull and numb, like puppets. They surrounded the tall black-robed man like guards.
The person who killed the middle-aged man from the Seven Stars Sect was one of the black shadows. A middle-aged man at the late-stage Qi Martial Realm could not withstand a single blow in front of this black shadow.
While Cen Qingci and the others were shocked, they also felt their hair stand on end. Then, they saw the black shadow that killed the middle-aged man from the Seven Stars Sect was quickly dissipating.
From the corpse of the middle-aged man from the Seven Stars Sect, a new black shadow wriggled out. His figure and appearance were exactly the same as the middle-aged man from the Seven Stars Sect.
After appearing, it floated beside the tall black-robed man and became one of the many black shadows.
Gulp!
Cen Qingci swallowed her dry throat. Her scalp went numb. Not only did she not relax because of the death of the middle-aged man from the Seven Stars Sect, but she became even more nervous and uneasy.
Fan Li, who was still alive, felt despair. Just the middle-aged man from the Seven Stars Sect was already not something they could contend with. Now, an even more terrifying existence has arrived!
Only Wang Luo and Yang Zhen behind them felt a sense of familiarity when they saw this tall black-robed man.
Wang Luo hesitated for a moment before suppressing their fear and asking with a trembling voice. “Senior… Senior, is that you?”
They felt that the tall black-robed man in front of them was the mysterious person who had eliminated the evil spirit back then.
It was very similar!
Xiao Shi looked at them. He sighed in his heart. Fortunately, he arrived in time. If he was any later, the situation would not be good. However, he did not see Wang Changhuan. This gave him a bad feeling.
Faced with Wang Luo’s question, Xiao Shi nodded slightly. His current figure and appearance were very similar to Warrior Puppet from back then. His clothes were also the same, so he might as well interact with them with this identity.
After seeing Xiao Shi nod, Wang Luo and Yang Zhen immediately became excited. “We’re saved! We’re saved!”
They couldn’t help but cheer. Back when they were eradicating the evil spirits, it was this mysterious expert who had been helping them. Unexpectedly, at this critical moment, this mysterious expert saved them again.
Xiao Shi calmly picked up the items that had fallen to the ground and placed them in his storage bag. He looked at the dying Fan Li.
The former captain of Team A was in a very bad state and was seriously injured. Although Xiao Shi was not familiar with her, he also knew that if she had not tried her best to stop the enemy, the others must have died long ago.
Xiao Shi took out a healing pill. He flicked his finger.
Swoosh!
The pill flew into Fan Li’s mouth and quickly healed her injuries. After understanding that the tall black-robed man was a friend and not an enemy, Cen Qingci heaved a sigh of relief. She opened her big eyes and secretly sized him up.
Soon, under Xiao Shi’s medicinal pill, most of the injuries on Fan Li’s body recovered. As she marveled at the shocking effect of this healing pill, she stood up from the ground and thanked Xiao Shi with cupped fists. “Thank you for saving me, Senior.”
Xiao Shi nodded lightly and looked at Wang Luo and Yang Zhen. He asked in a low voice. “Where are the others?” Now, not only had his size changed, but his entire voice was also different from his original body. He did not have to worry about being recognized by them.
This was the first time Wang Luo and Yang Zhen had heard this Senior speak. At the same time, he knew that the other party was asking about the others in their five-member team. Their expressions were gloomy.
Wang Changhuan and the other team member were already dead. They had never seen Xiao Shi, so they did not know how his current situation was.
Xiao Shi sighed in his heart. He had a good relationship with Wang Changhuan. In the past, when he was a night patroller, they often drank together. Unfortunately, in such a cruel world, it was really difficult to live long without enough strength.
Now that Wang Changhuan was gone, there were still only five of them even if Fan Li was included. He was still short of one person to open the secret place.
Fan Li hesitated for a moment. She could not help but say to Xiao Shi. “Senior, some disciples of our Red Tiger Sect were surrounded and killed by the disciples of the Seven Stars Sect. I wonder if you can save them?”
She knew that she was being presumptuous. After all, it was already very good that the other party was willing to save them. Now that she was asking the other party to save others, she was pushing her luck.
However, she did not want to see the other disciples being slaughtered by the Seven Stars Sect. Even if there was a risk of offending the other party, she was willing to take this risk.
Xiao Shi glanced at her. His tone was indifferent. He had to maintain his cold and aloof persona. “Lead the way.”
Fan Li was overjoyed. “Thank you, Senior!” She hurriedly brought Xiao Shi to help. Not long after, they arrived at the place where they had been surrounded by the Seven Stars Sect’s disciples.
The corpses of the Red Tiger Sect disciples were everywhere.
Not far away, there were five to six Seven Stars Sect’s disciples surrounding a Red Tiger Sect’s disciple. The person who was besieged by the Seven Stars Sect’s disciples was the squinty-eyed captain of Xiao Shi and the others back then.
The narrowed-eyed man was the core personal disciple. He also had many treasures on him. It was with these treasures that he could last until now under the encirclement of the Seven Stars Sect’s disciples. However, he was about to collapse.
A cold glint flashed across Xiao Shi’s eyes. He raised his hand and pointed forward. The wandering soul guards around him immediately rushed forward.
