Zi Linng understood what Huang Ying meant. Forget about the rest of the Divine Profound Sect, even she couldn't predict what dangers would await her in this constantly changing little world. But... They need some faith to hold on.
Very quickly, the fragrant food had diluted the days of depression that had plagued them for a few days, as Divine Profound Sect and the rest of the people relaxed around the bonfire.
"Senior Sister Ye, have some." Gu Yuan did not give up and brought more food over.
Zi Linng lifted her head and looked at her without saying a word. She thought that he would be rejected again, and her expression became a little stiff. She clearly knew the other party's personality, but she still felt a bit disappointed.
But at this time, a pure white hand took the thing in her hand, "Thank you," although her tone was light, it made Gu Yuan so happy that he was at a loss of what to do.
"Senior sister, you eat first. If you don't have enough, then call me." With two blush on her cheeks, she turned around with light steps to continue cooking.
"What did you do?" Huang Ying's face was filled with surprise, Gu Yuan had always thought of Liu Shuangshuang as the leader, but when did she change her personality?
"I saved her life at the same time."
Huang Ying shook her head, "Gu Yuan is as stubborn as a cow, even if I have to save her, she won't distance herself from Liu Shuangshuang and get close to you, right?" Her eyes were sharp as she quickly pointed out the crux of the matter.
Zi Linng smiled, "Someone pushed her and it just so happened that I held her back."
Although her explanation was not detailed enough, Huang Ying more or less understood what was going on. She laughed, "Then wouldn't Liu Shuangshuang hate you to the bone then?"
Zi Linng looked at her sideways, water ripples flowing through her beautiful eyes, "Does that mean she doesn't hate me if I don't pull her out?"
"That's true. Even if she hates you, she won't be able to do anything to you. It just so happens that it's enough to anger her to death!"
Zi Linng liked Huang Ying's personality. As they spoke, the two of them began to laugh.
After the meal, everyone was tired. As they talked, their group of people fell to the ground, breathing evenly.
Gold had already gone to sleep after his meal. His injuries were just right, and his body was still very weak. Huang Ying was also extremely tired. After greeting Zi Linng, she also went to sleep next to the gold.
As Zi Linng looked at Huang Ying and the others, she could imagine how tired they had been feeling during this period.
She thought everyone was asleep and was about to get up to walk away when a pair of black boots appeared in front of her. Looking up along the boot, she saw a handsome face.
"There's something I want to ask you." Chu Feng explained the reason for his visit in a concise manner.
Zi Linng patted the dried up leaves on her body and said, "Speak." As she answered, he walked towards a place where there were few people.
"Have you seen Chu Jun before?" Chu Feng frowned, staring at her, trying to find the answer.
Zi Linng answered as she walked, "I have."
Chu Feng seemed to have expected this answer, his brows knitted even more, and followed along.
The two of them left the crowd, and the unconscious people suddenly opened their eyes, Liu Shuangshuang fiercely stared at their backs, her hands folded tightly.
"Is he dead or alive?"
After walking for over a hundred feet, Zi Linng suddenly stopped, and said, "Whether he's alive or not, you should ask him, why do you want to ask me to do so?"
Chu Feng frowned slightly, "I've met him once, I almost didn't recognize him …" He didn't say the rest of his words. If Chu Jun became like that, the reason why he appeared and disappeared without a trace would most likely be because of his opponent.
"So that's why you think he's here for me," Zi Linng was initially smiling, but suddenly stopped, "You guessed right, he has come looking for trouble with me time and time again, if there's a chance, I will definitely kill him." She let Chu Jun go once, but he had provoked her countless times. Could it be that she still had the duty to let him go? He was not a Buddha who cut meat to feed the falcons.
"I'm not asking you to let him go. I'm trying to figure out what's going on." Chu Feng's tone did not change, as though he truly wanted to understand the reason for this matter.
Zi Linng smiled slightly, "Then you asked for the wrong person, I still want to understand what happened."
As the two of them were talking, a sharp scream came from the camp.
The two of them looked at each other, and immediately headed towards the direction of the people from Divine Profound Sect.
Following Liu Shuangshuang's shout, everyone woke up from their stupor and saw the several tens of Devil Beast that were surrounding the area.
Roar …
The other Devil Beast all shook their huge heads and roared. Their scarlet red eyes were bloodshot and ruthless as they charged towards the Divine Profound Sect disciples who were closest to them to bite them.
Ah …
A male disciple was the closest to the group of beasts, and when he reacted, he was a step too slow. In the blink of an eye, the sound of flesh being torn apart could be heard, and blood sprayed out ….
Chu Feng took out his Soul Extinguishing Sabre and rushed towards that group of Devil Beast fearlessly.
The fellow sect member who was bitten quickly reacted and launched an attack, finally escaping from the mouth of the spotted tiger. However, his injuries were too severe, causing him to fall unconscious.
Liu Shuangshuang supported the injured fellow sect disciple to the side and released the Profound Strength to treat him.
Zi Linng swept her gaze across them indifferently, and realized that they had only panicked for a moment, and then began to launch their counterattacks in an orderly fashion. Huang Ying stood beside Gold, knocking away a Devil Beast that was pouncing towards him.
The thirty odd people were all elites among the Divine Profound Sect elites. The dozen or so Devil Beast were all quickly killed. Everyone hadn't even taken a few breaths when they saw some huge silhouettes appear in the sandstorm filled wasteland, and the three gibbon apes gradually revealed themselves. They stood in the midst of the sand and wind, like giant beasts that supported the skies, with their eyes that were like bells staring at the direction of the Divine Profound Sect disciples.
"It's this again!" One of the Divine Profound Sect disciples looked at the gibbon and exclaimed out loud.
When Zi Linng noticed the appearance of the three gibbon apes, everyone immediately tensed up.
"Quickly retreat!" Zhao Ting immediately made a decision, waving his hand to let everyone retreat.
The Divine Profound Sect cultivators moved extremely quickly, and in the blink of an eye, they fled deeper into the forest. Zi Linng was at the very back and her gaze was still fixated on the three gibbon apes.
"Ye Linn!" Seeing that she was still standing at her original position, Huang Ying immediately shouted for her.
"He's coming." Withdrawing her gaze, she caught up to Huang Ying and quickly retreated with the others.
"One gibbon killed dozens of us, and now there are actually three of us! Ye Linn, do you think we can still endure until the Trial Stele opens?" Huang Ying's smile was a little self-deprecating. All the disciples entered the Trial Stele with hopes of raising their cultivation, but after entering, they realized that this place was not a place they could go against with their current strength.
Hearing her words, Zi Linng looked at the thirty people in front, and did not call for everyone. The direction in which Zhao Ting led the others to escape was in the direction of the Magma River. They had nowhere to go, and the only thing they could do was to fight the three gibbon apes.
Gulp … Gulp …
The scarlet red lava bubbled continuously as it obstructed their path.
Everyone's face was pale. Could it be that the heavens were going to kill them?
"Junior Sister, do you know the terrain around here? Which way are we escaping to? " Zhao Ting thought about how Zi Linng seemed to have lived here for a period of time, and immediately turned to ask her.
Zi Linng shook her head, "Senior Brother Zhao, to be honest, there is no other way. We can only fight those Devil Beast head on." The environment within the Trial Stele was getting stranger and stranger. The giant rat was also unable to successfully cross the river, moreover, there were endless dangers beyond the river.
Hearing Zi Linng's words, everyone turned silent, their expressions turning ugly.
Zi Linng's eyes swept across the crowd and her eyebrows twitched, "I thought you were the elite disciples of Divine Profound Sect, but I wonder how you would look at Divine Profound Sect before the battle begins."
"What do you know?" How many of our brethren have died at the hands of the gibbon? Now that there are three of them, how do you think we should fight them? "
A young disciple looked excited and shouted at Zi Linng.
Zi Linng did not interrupt him even after he finished speaking. His expression was still calm at this moment, as if he was not affected in the slightest. "Hmph …" A bunch of useless cowards! "
Zi Linng's words had obviously angered those from the same sect who were unfamiliar with her, and they all glared at her.
Seeing this, Liu Shuangshuang could not help but be happy in her heart. Could it be that this Ye Linn did not have any brains, and was still infuriating everyone?
However, Zi Linng remained unmoved as she turned towards the direction of the wasteland and said indifferently: "If you guys have not fought hard enough, then you all are deemed to have no chance of survival. I see that your cultivations have come to an end, that you guys will never be Profound General, Profound King!"
"You …" Everyone was getting more and more agitated.
However, Zhao Ting took two steps forward, "Junior Sister Ye is right, we already have no way out, we need to muster our courage and fight against those Devil Beast."
However, his words obviously did not rouse their fighting spirit, they continued to glare at Zi Linng with indignation.
Zi Linng coldly snorted, "You think I can just watch you die? If you have the ability, then make your move! " Her cold eyes swept across the crowd, "Are you indignant? I can take two gibbon alone, and you can't and dare, are you cowards? "Are you a coward?!"
The crowd was excited, but they quickly reacted.
"Fine, as long as you can take down two gibbon by yourself, we will admit that you're a coward and not as good as you!" It was the same young disciple from before who stared ruthlessly at Zi Linng, as if he had heard a great joke.
"Fine, open your eyes wide and look!"
After Zi Linng finished speaking, she was stopped by Huang Ying. "Don't mess around, you don't know how powerful the gibbon is."
Zi Linng reached out and patted the back of her hand that was resting on her elbow, "Don't worry, do I look like a reckless person?"
Huang Ying's distrustful eyes gave a silent reply.
"Even if it's reckless, I still have to have some confidence in being able to do it." If the gibbon was really as powerful as they had said, then capturing it without fighting back would only result in death. On the contrary, if she held both sides back, then the Divine Profound Sect people would do their best to attack one of them together, which should give them a slight chance of victory.
In the blink of an eye, the three sky-upholding giant beasts arrived at the edge of the forest.
Roar …
The long arm ape waved its hand to destroy the nearby trees, and directly rushed towards the location of the Divine Profound Sect disciples.
"I'll leave the left one to you, and the rest to me. Open your eyes and look carefully!" After she loudly shouted, she quickly jumped up and threw two fireballs at the two gibbon apes on the right. She successfully aroused the aggro of the two gibbon apes and chased after her.
