In Bagua City, there is a bloody battlefield at the end of the street, and endless darkness approaches behind.
The vast majority of people in the city did not think calmly and just kept moving forward.
Pang Jian paid close attention to what was happening behind him.
The group of them kept a suitable distance from the darkness and headed toward the center of the city without panic.
After slowing down, Pang Jian can also try the "Earth Flame Technique" to exert more force when a war breaks out.
"Junior Brother Zhou...Junior Brother Zhou."
Suddenly, a delicate voice came from the stone building on one side of the street.
The voice was timid, seeming a little surprised, but not quite sure.
Zhou Qingchen was shocked, and his rough and unruly face was instantly filled with ecstasy.
He suddenly looked at Shilou, suppressed the excitement in his heart, and shouted: "Senior Sister Jiang, is it really... is it you?"
"Junior Brother Zhou..."
An elegant woman wearing a black robe with a red mountain pattern on her chest appeared from the window where the sound came from.
She has a delicate oval face, which is slightly pale at the moment. There are crystal beads of sweat on her smooth forehead, which are constantly pouring out, as if she is enduring the pain of a heart attack.
Zhou Qingchen suddenly let out a strange cry, startling everyone, and then rushed straight to the stone building and shouted from a distance: "Senior Sister Jiang, why are you here?"
The woman who made the noise in the room breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that it was really Zhou Qingchen.
Immediately, she said with a sad look: "The remains of Tianfeng appeared in the world. After the phoenix bones exploded, they were scattered all over the place. Several senior brothers and sisters I had made friends with were exploring a place where the phoenix bones fell. By chance, we saw a white mountain.
A mirrored tunnel emerges from the mountain wall..."
She walked out of the stone building talking about her experience.
After the woman with beautiful appearance and elegant temperament revealed her true appearance, Zhou Qingchen shouted: "Senior Sister Jiang, what's your left hand?"
"He was cut in half."
Jiang Li smiled sadly, glanced at the arm that only reached half of the elbow, and sighed sadly: "We are just heading to the center of the city, who knows..."
She talked about her experience lightly.
The corpses that Pang Jian and others encountered earlier were the Hongshan monks who were with Jiang Li. They were intercepted and killed on the way.
Only Jiang Li, whose arm was cut off in part, retreated to a nearby stone building and hid carefully, managed to escape.
The rest were all killed.
Only when the pillar of light shot into the sky in the center of the city, the rare treasure suddenly appeared, and everyone rushed to the center of the city, did Jiang Li dare to take the lead.
She was seriously injured and pulled behind. She didn't dare to get too close to the center of the city, so she walked slowly. Unexpectedly, she met Zhou Qingchen and others who had deliberately slowed down their pace and kept a suitable distance from the darkness.
"Who did it?"
Zhou Qingchen had already stepped forward. He hurriedly took out some bottles and jars from the storage bracelet, and said with red eyes: "This is some healing concoction, Senior Sister Jiang..."
"No need, I bandaged it myself and the bleeding has stopped long ago."
Jiang Li forced a forced smile.
"Who did this?!"
Zhou Qingchen was furious and shouted again...
"People from the second realm seem to call him Qi Qingsong, but that's all I know."
Looking at the eager and angry Zhou Qingchen, Jiang Li's curved eyebrows trembled slightly. She couldn't bear to lie to him anymore and said calmly: "Junior brother Zhou, I used to hide around and reject you again and again because... I am older than you.
My talents are limited and I don’t have a good background.”
"I'm sorry that I treated you so cruelly."
"Actually, I don't think I'm worthy of you, and I don't want to delay your future."
Jiang Li kept shaking her head, with crystal tears falling on the stone floor following her movements.
Zhou Qingchen's eyes turned red, and he forced out what he thought was a brilliant smile, grinning and saying: "Senior sister, I don't care about this. I have liked you very much since I first saw you, and I have always loved you. Want you to know."
"I know."
Jiang Li's shoulders trembled slightly, and she responded softly with a voice like a mosquito.
"Senior sister..."
Zhou Qingchen took out a green pear wrapped in a white handkerchief from the most important corner inside the storage bracelet.
He meticulously wiped the green pears clean first, and then handed them to Jiang Li with a bright smile: "I know you like to eat pears, and I always carry them with me. I gave you so many before, but you refused to accept them. Today I will give them to you." Let’s eat one.”
The green pear became shiny after he wiped it, and even the peel was almost scratched.
Looking at the green pear he handed over, looking at the persistence and seriousness on his face, Jiang Li's eyes were misty, and she couldn't help but think of Zhou Qingchen, who behaved like a big boy and was as reserved as a big boy when they first met.
She thought it was funny at the time, but later she learned that the big boy only seemed reserved when facing her.
When dealing with other senior brothers and sisters in Hongshan, the big boy behaved calmly and without any stage fright.
"good."
Jiang Li smiled and took the green pear. Without saying anything else, she lowered her head and ate it in small bites.
Zhou Qingchen, who had been waiting for this moment for who knows how long, just looked at her and giggled.
It seems that the way she eats pears is the cutest thing in the world.
Zhou Qingchen had no idea that the endless darkness from the fifth realm behind him was getting closer and closer to them.
"Boy Zhou, we have to hurry up."
Seeing that Su Meng was also crying and Luo Hongyan remained silent in a rare way, Han Duping had no choice but to urge her.
Luo Hongyan, who had always disliked him and Zhou Qingchen and acted the most distant and indifferent, was looking at Zhou Qingchen and Jiang Li quietly. Hearing this, he said in a cold voice: "You are annoying to death!"
Han Duping grimaced: "It won't work if I don't urge you."
"knew."
Zhou Qingchen nodded, knowing that he really couldn't wait too long.
He gestured to help Jiang Li, but when he saw Jiang Li holding a green pear in one hand and only half of another hand left, he was stunned and didn't know what to do.
"I can walk on my own, but I will be a little slower. I... am afraid that I will drag you down."
Jiang Li looked worriedly at Pang Jian, a complete stranger, and Luo Hongyan and Su Meng beside them.
Luo Hongyan said with an indifferent look: "Except for Pang Jian, the rest are all burdens. One more of you is not too much."
"Thanks."
Jiang Li knelt down gently to thank her, and without waiting for Zhou Qingchen's help, she walked forward on her own in a sensible manner.
Zhou Qingchen glared at Han Duping and asked Han Duping to step forward and take care of Jiang Li carefully, while he stayed behind with red eyes.
When Su Meng and Luo Hongyan also moved forward one by one, Zhou Qingchen took a deep breath and said to Pang Jian, who had been silent, "Kill Qi Qingsong for me, I don't care what his status is in the second world! In short, you must help me this time! No matter what means I use, I will kill this person!"
Pang Jian nodded and said only one word: "Okay."
…
No matter how long the street is, it will eventually come to an end.
When Pang Jian and his party arrived at the center of Bagua City, the first thing they saw was a huge square littered with corpses.
In the center of the square with a floor as white as jade, sits a majestic and towering stone building, with three eye-catching words above it.
——City Lord’s Mansion.
That pillar of light soaring into the sky, and the rare treasure presented in the pillar of light, came from inside the city lord's palace.
This strange city lord's palace is located in the center of the square. At this moment, there are nearly a hundred people who are selflessly fighting.
Pang Jian was slightly shaken.
The square was filled with the pungent smell of blood, and there were hundreds of corpses on the ground scattered around the square.
His previous battle with Dark Ghost and the killing of Dong Tianze were all small-scale battles.
It was the first time for him to see a battlefield like this, where many practitioners were fighting together, rivers of blood flowed, and broken limbs could be seen everywhere.
"Senior Sister Jiang, can you see Qi Qingsong?"
As soon as Zhou Qingchen came over, he scanned the battlefield and asked with wide eyes.
Outside the city lord's mansion, there were nearly a hundred people fighting, and he didn't recognize those people.
"No, not here."
Jiang Li answered his question first, then bit her lip and said with a pale face: "Junior Brother Zhou, I know your love for me, but I don't want you to die here."
"That man... just cut off half of my arm. He comes from the second realm, and his personal combat power is really strong. I don't want you to die because of me."
Obviously, she felt that it would be difficult to kill Qi Qingsong with the strength of Zhou Qingchen and others.
She felt very lucky to be able to live to this day and see Zhou Qingchen again. She did not want to cause Zhou Qingchen and others to die here because of her hatred.
Seeing that Zhou Qingchen remained silent, she whispered: "It would be great if you could go back. I won't allow you to risk your life for me. It's not worth it."
"It's worth everything for you!"
Zhou Qingchen shouted solemnly.
"Someone."
Pang Jian, who was holding a spear, saw a girl in white suddenly appear from a street entrance on the left.
The girl in white wears a tulle on her face. She seems to be the last one like them, and she just showed her head.
Seeing Pang Jian looking over, the girl in white nodded lightly with cold eyes, which was regarded as saying hello.
"Leave this street first and watch from the edge area to see if the darkness behind you will spread to the square."
At this time, Luo Hongyan suddenly spoke. She asked everyone to leave from the street entrance, and everyone immediately entered Baiyu Square.
Seeing the darkness slowly encroaching, they did not focus on the people fighting, but all turned their heads.
It's not just them.
Seeing the endless darkness of the fifth realm emerging from the eight street entrances, the fighting monks also hurriedly stopped.
Everyone at this moment was nervously looking at the darkness appearing at the entrance of the street.
Surprisingly, the darkness only stopped at the street entrance and did not escape an inch into the White Jade Square. It seemed to be blocked at the street entrance by the light in the square.
"boom!"
Seeing this, the practitioners who felt relieved fell into fighting again.
