Chapter 645 – The Scum Is Disapproving
"ZHU XI!" Wen Yan called as he fished out talismans from his sleeves and threw them towards the demons.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! Simultaneous explosions were heard as the talismans explode one after another, killing many demons in the process!
"Wen Yan!" Zhu Xi cried in glee when he saw Wen Yan. "Don't throw your charm bracelets! It can become this ball of strings! It is a life-saving bracelet!" he told him.
"… huh?" Wen Yan blinked as he blankly looked at Zhu Xi. Did he hear it right? The charm bracelet is a life-saving bracelet? He thought. But, remembering that it was from Cheng Sheng, it actually isn't that surprising.
"Look out!" Zhu Xi yelled.
Wen Yan immediately flew on his sword and dodged the demons that leapt towards him from the tree below him. His face darkened and, unceremoniously, he took out a magic pill and dropped it. The magic pill passed through the gaps between the bodies of the unsuspecting demons. As soon as the magic pill hit the ground, a loud explosion was heard that shook the earth and the sky!
"WAH!" Tang Li exclaimed and almost fell off his sword when even the air also vibrated due to the explosion.
"AMAZING!" Zhu Xi happily laughed inside the ball of strings.
Li Yan's mouth fell open in shock when he saw a deep pit with the corpses of the demons beside it. A large number of demons were instantly gone, as there wasn't even a piece of them left, not even ash, after the fire of the explosion engulfed them!
"Ex… Exploding Pill?!" Li Yan exclaimed. "Why is it stronger than before?!" he asked.
"Ask Cheng-shishu." Wen Yan answered as he killed the killed the other demons leaping to them from the tall trees below them. As soon as he saw that the demons started to gather to throw their kin to the air to reach them, he would throw another Exploding Pill to them and kill them all in one fell swoop!
"So domineering!" Jing De exclaimed when they heard the explosions from afar.
"It should be Wen Yan's group?" Jing Xu smiled.
"Why didn't you use Exploding Pills?" Jing De asked Chen Wu and Wu Lian.
Chen Wu's face darkened while Wu Lian's face turned colder.
"IDIOT!" Jing Xu slapped the back of Jing De's head. "Do you want us to perish along with the demons?!" he asked.
"… ah." Jing De muttered when he also realized it. How strong the Exploding Pill is and how far is its range… he nervously gulped. En, there won't even be ash left of them if they were hit! "Sorry. Hehe." He embarrassedly laughed as he looked at Chen Wu and Wu Lian.
Jing Xu helplessly sighed at his stupid younger brother. There is no saving him!
…
Fortunately, Tang Li's IQ is higher than Jing De's so he didn't ask this stupid question to Li Yan, Fei Yinzi, as well as the stern Wen Yan. Or else, it was to him who Wen Yan will throw the Exploding Pill if he had asked. If this happened, Tang Li wouldn't even had the chance to shed a tear.
Zhu Xi then felt that the ball of strings shrank and gathered until they woven themselves back into a bracelet and tied itself around his wrist. "This charm bracelet is truly amazing!" he exclaimed in surprise.
"But, why did it shrank back?" Li Yan asked.
"Probably it felt that Zhu – shixiong is now out of danger." Fei Yinzi answered as he flew towards them.
Zhu Xi turned and was surprised when he saw Fei Yinzi's pale face. "Er Zi! What happened to you?!" he asked, shocked.
"It's nothing." Fei Yinzi shook his head as he threw talismans to the demons below them that tried to reach them again.
Although Wen Yan is disapproving of Fei Yinzi for Wen Wen, he still explained. "He over exhausted his qi to find you, Chen Wu and the others." he answered.
Zhu Xi was shocked, and felt moved. "Thanks!" he told Fei Yinzi.
Locating the others is a mage skill, and since it traces one's qi, it is definitely an extensive process, especially if the distance is farther or the qi is weaker. One also need to highly concentrate in order to distinguish one's qi from the others.
So, just thinking the distance that Fei Yinzi has to cover and how dense the demonic qi that he has to pass through to look for the others, it is definitely painstaking. Even them don't know if they could do it, not to mention that Fei Yinzi is not even a mage in the first place. But since this method is a life-saving method for others, Cheng Sheng taught Fei Yinzi this, since it only requires qi and basic knowledge.
As to how far Fei Yinzi is willing to go for others, it shows that he is an extremely loyal friend and a dedicated person.
Fei Yinzi nodded. Then, he finally can't help but cough out blood. "Kuh!" he coughed for the second time and his face turned paler. He immediately wiped the blood that trickled in the corner of his lips.
"Er Zi!" Tang Li and Li Yan cried.
Fei Yinzi raised his hand as he drank a potion. It was a whole bottle ah! Only then did his complexion turned better. "Let's save Su Mi-shijie and the others first." He told them.
"En!" they answered and the five of them immediately flew to where Chen Wu and the others were located.
…
Although the charm bracelet turned into a ball of strings that acted as their defensive shield against the demons, Chen Wu and the others don't know how to move it, nor know how to make it fly so that they can leave this damned hell-like place!
Now that they think about, since the ball of strings, although protecting them, makes them unable to leave this place, isn't this just throwing them into a pit! Even if they won't protect themselves for long against the demons, but they can still walk further, a step or few steps away, from this place!
"Chen Su! Su Mi! Su Yi! Are you alright?" Chen Wu asked, calling out to the biggest ball of strings emitting light not far from them.
"Qian Meng! Qian Jue!" Jing De called.
"Jin Yu! Ling Yun!" Jing Xu also called.
"We are alright, da ge!" Chen Su yelled back. "Qian Meng's complexion turned better and Ling Yun has regained his strength, but still needs to rest for a little long! Su Yi is awake now!" he told them.
Chen Wu and Wu Lian sighed in relief. At least no one is gravely injured despite the peril that they faced earlier. It seems that their luck is better than the Shanliangde Sect's. He thought and wryly smiled.
"How do you think is Zhu Xi doing now?" Jing De asked when he remembered that Zhu Xi was coming their way to help them, and due to that, he also drawn some demons towards himself, giving them an opportunity to break through the siege earlier.
But, in the end, they still failed as they didn't have enough strength, and weren't fast enough to escape. However, even if they did, if that means that they will gonna be leaving Chen Su, Su Mi, Su Yi, Ling Yun, Qian Meng, Qian Jue and Jin Yu behind, then they would rather be halted and remain here like right now since they don't want to forsake their friends in return of saving themselves.
"The signal we sent can be seen from the camp, thus Zhu Xi saw it and went here." Jing Xu said. "The ones remaining in the camp after Zhu Xi left are Cui Xiang, Chen Yu and Sun Ri. Cui Xiang can't leave, so there are only Chen Yu and Sun Ri…" he didn't continue.
Everyone understood. They know that Chen Yu and Sun Ri aren't strong enough. So, if either of them, or even the two of them combined go here, they still definitely won't be able to survive the onslaught of demons.
"Have you all forgotten us?!" a loud voice yelled.
Everyone turned. "Tang Li?!" they exclaimed.
"It's them…" Ling Yun spoke as his eyelids trembled when he opened his eyes.
"Wen Yan's group has arrived!" Su Mi exclaimed in both surprise and joy.
Su Yi and Qian Jue sighed in relief. They don't have strength left on them anymore. They can only wait for death to arrive here earlier. Fortunately, Wen Yan's group has arrived.
"Zhu Xi! Are you alright?" Chen Wu asked.
"Yes! The bracelet protected me!" Zhu Xi answered as he and Wen Yan's group hacked the demons to death!
It is time for their counterattack! BOOM! BOOM! There were explosions one after another as Wen Yan threw the Exploding Pills.
"Hey! We are still here! Be careful not to hit us!" Jing De yelled.
"There are still these balls of strings, right?" Wen Yan said as he threw another Exploding Pill.
BOOOM!
