They were silent all the way. Following the instructions of the Eagle Eye Technique, the two of them did not encounter a giant praying mantis along the way and soon exited the Forest of Despair.
As soon as he came out of the forest, Haoran saw Lan Qingjue and the bad cowboy walking towards them, talking and laughing.
"Qingqing, cowboy~" he shouted at the top of his voice: "Here!"
"Brother Xiaobai." When Qingqing saw the two of them, she waved her hands desperately and trotted over. Two pear holes were faintly visible on her snowy face, and her signature smile made people feel comfortable no matter how they looked at her.
The bad cowboy followed her leisurely. His face was fixed on an expression that he thought was cool, and he obviously wanted to use this to attract the attention of a certain girl.
"Cowboy, if you keep tightening your facial muscles, you will get cramps." Xiaoyun kindly reminded.
"I..." Hearing this, the corner of the bad cowboy's mouth twitched several times, and his facial expression suddenly became vivid.
"As expected." Lan Qingjue glared at his cousin who kept making fools of himself with dissatisfaction.
"Qingqing, hurry up and save people." Haoran did not participate in the nonsense. He just gently laid Duke Nicholas's body flat on the soft grass and summoned Reverend Lan to treat the old man. The old Duke's condition was very bad at this moment and he could not even breathe.
Everything has become extremely irregular.
"Well, let me try." Qingqing said no more. The staff in her hand emitted waves of magic power, and a white halo gradually enveloped the old man.
After a while, all her magic power was exhausted, and the halo disappeared.
Although the wounds on the old man's body have healed somewhat, he still has not woken up from his coma.
"Qingqing, what's going on now?" Haoran looked at her puzzled, wanting to know whether this was Ren's situation.
Lan Qingjue shook her head and remained silent. After drinking two large blue bottles with a serious expression, she continued to wave her staff and treat Duke Nicholas.
Once, twice, three times...
The scars on Nicholas' body have been greatly healed by her treatment. However, his tightly closed eyes still did not open.
"The situation is getting better." Xiaoyun checked Nicholas' body. Although he was still not out of danger, at least his breathing had stabilized.
"I tried my best." Qingqing wiped the sweat from her forehead and said, "I can only save his life temporarily. Take him back to the city to find my teacher Linda. This kind of injury is probably only suffered by a great light demon."
Only the instructor has the solution."
"Okay, let's go quickly." Haoran was just about to carry the old man on his back when suddenly a strange feeling of oppression came from the left rear.
Who was there? He felt excited and looked back, but he didn't find a single figure.
Could it be that he felt wrong? Haoran shook his head. This time's extreme mission seemed to have made his spirit a little over-sensitive.
"Ah~" Qingqing suddenly screamed.
"What's wrong?" Haoran turned around hurriedly, only to see Lan Qingjue covering her abdomen with both hands, and a large amount of blood was pouring out from between her fingers.
Beside her, a figure shrouded in black mist shook for a moment and then disappeared.
"Heart of Darkness!" Haoran recognized this person, with such a ghostly figure. Apart from Heart of Darkness, who ranked first on the assassin list, there was no second choice.
"She wants Duke Nicholas' life!" Qingqing drank a large bottle of life potion, and the wound healed quickly. Fortunately, her blood volume was nearly 6,000 points, which could not be killed by an assassin's sneak attack in seconds.
After taking a breath, she told what had just happened.
It turned out that the moment Haoran turned her head, she saw a cold light flashing one meter away from the Duke, and then a powerful murderous aura headed straight for the old Duke. At that time, her first reaction was to pounce on him,
He used his body to protect this kind NPC old man.
"Xiao Bai, you can't let the murderer go!" Xiao Yun said coldly.
"Not bad." Haoran's expression was even colder. The Heart of Darkness only attacked him sneakily last time, but this time it even didn't let the old Duke and Qing Qing go. He must not tolerate it any longer.
At that moment, the staff in his hand flashed with purple light, and dark clouds surged in the sky within a kilometer radius.
"Purple lightning!" As he roared angrily, thousands of purple lightning struck the area of this kilometer.
"Bang." A embarrassed figure was hit by one of the lightning bolts, and was blown up in disgrace.
"Star Thunder Chain." Haoran cast magic continuously and timed it just right. The Heart of Darkness was helplessly tied to the silver thunder chain, and the blood from the top of his head kept falling.
"Who are you, and who ordered you to attack us?" Haoran was really angry this time. This woman looks good, why do you always do such shameful things?
"Kuansheng Xiaobai, you have done such a thing to others, and you still have the nerve to accuse others?" Heart of Darkness knew that he was going to die this time. He was not like begging for mercy like last time, but he accused Haoran with some passion.
.
"What did I do?" Haoran touched his nose, a little surprised.
"Tell me, what did you do to her?" When the bad cowboy saw that the trapped person was a beautiful woman, he immediately felt sympathy and asked Haoran about it.
"Brother Xiaobai, don't you know..." Qingqing took a closer look at the Heart of Darkness, feeling that she was quite pretty, and looked at Haoran with some suspicion.
"Our little guy, he seems to be quite capable." Situ Muyun had an inquiring look on his face, and he looked like a typical person who likes to listen to gossip.
"Speak clearly, don't let me take the blame!" Haoran was so angry that he directly replaced the staff with a dagger, and the sharp dagger blade directly grazed Heart of Darkness' beautiful little face.
"Wow, coercion and intimidation, awesome!" Xiaoyun raised his thumb.
"I knew it..." The bad cowboy cast a look of disdain.
"..." Qingqing was speechless.
"I..." After everyone said this, Haoran had no choice but to retract the dagger angrily. At the same time, the effect of the star thunder chain also disappeared.
"Don't pretend to be a good person! Tom Cruise told me what you did to Tide!" After regaining his freedom, Heart of Darkness did not become invisible again, but simply spoke out.
"The waves are rough, Xiaowei?" Hearing her mention Tom Cruise's name, Haoran had some clues in his mind.
"Shut up, don't be too long or too short. Who do you think you are? How dare you call me so affectionate!" The Heart of Darkness was furious when he heard him mention the name of "Roaring Waves" so familiarly.
"I insist on calling her Xiaowei, why don't you accept it?" Haoran's temper also rose. He looked at her provocatively and said, "Why are you, a woman, like a mad dog, biting people randomly when you come up?"
"You dare to call me a mad dog?!" Heart of Darkness was furious. As the second-largest member of a gangster group in the Northeast, this was the first time someone dared to speak to him like this.
"I was wrong." Haoran "apologized" coldly: "It's not a 'mad dog', it's a 'bitch'!"
