Ten Tailed Fox

"It's just a low-quality magic weapon. Nothing good can come from this remote place. Break it into pieces."

Chaha flicked his finger contemptuously, the air was shaken, and the next moment the magic hairpin shattered into pieces on the ground.

Huiji's expression remained unchanged. She had expected this. She knew that there was a big gap between her and Chaha's cultivation level. At the moment the hairpin broke, she suddenly appeared behind Chaha, wanting to take the opportunity to sneak attack him.

However, there is a huge difference in the perception between a first-tribulation quasi-immortal and a ninth-tribulation quasi-immortal. In the blink of an eye, Chaha turned around quickly and collided with Huiji's palm.

But Huiji was not surprised but happy. She took the opportunity to use the force to hold Yuan Luo tightly, leaped back suddenly, and rushed into the forest nearby.

"I was fooled?" After Chaha was stunned for a moment, his face suddenly turned gloomy, and he even felt a little amused. After all, he couldn't even catch a little girl.

"Chase!" Chaha's eyes flashed, and he ordered the demon guards to follow closely. "If you can't even catch these two little guys, watch out for your heads."

"Yes!"

Yuan Luo only felt that his body was being carried away at a high speed, and the scene around him kept changing until he completely lost his sense of direction. Huiji's speed was so fast that it was almost difficult for him to react.

She took Yuan Luo and ran quickly in Dayin Mountain, deliberately choosing remote and inconspicuous paths, and finally stopped in front of a hidden cave.

Others may not know about this place, but Huiji and Yuan Luo are very clear about it, because this is the place where they have secretly played since childhood, and it is difficult for outsiders to detect it.

Huiji took Yuan Luo into the cave, and the surroundings were very quiet.

"Yuan Luo, are you okay?" Although Hui Ji was asking Yuan Luo, her face was pale and her forehead was covered with cold sweat.

"It's okay." Yuan Luo was stunned for a moment and finally came back to his senses from the shock. He then realized that Huiji's breathing was a little disordered and there was an unconcealable fatigue in her eyes.

“That’s good.” Huiji held onto the wall of the cave with her hands, her steps staggering as if she would fall at any time.

"Hui Ji, you..." Yuan Luo hurriedly supported her body, and his hands felt cold and suddenly found that they were covered with blood, "You are injured!"

Huiji was obviously seriously injured. She tried to force herself to stand up, but her face had turned pale and her breathing became rapid.

"Hurry up and sit down. Don't move." Yuan Luo's eyes were full of heartache. He asked her to lie down carefully against the wall. He felt guilty. "If it wasn't for saving me, why would you do that?"

Huiji smiled softly, her eyes were gentle, but her tone was getting weaker and weaker: "I'm afraid you will be conscripted and taken away. How can you fight on the battlefield when you are weak? So, I will never let you die."

After she finished speaking, she could no longer hold on, a mouthful of blood flowed from the corner of her mouth, and her face turned paler in an instant.

"I'll go find some herbs!" Yuan Luo said, and quickly stood up, ready to go out and look for them.

"No." Huiji immediately grabbed his hand, with a hint of worry in her eyes, "You can't go out. The demon soldiers must be searching for us all around. If you go out without any cultivation, you will be discovered immediately."

Yuan Luo was at a loss for words. He knew Huiji was right. If he went out rashly, his whereabouts would be exposed. Thinking of this, he clenched his fists and felt powerless. "What should I do?"

"Wait, wait until they leave." Huiji gently closed her eyes and adjusted her body's injuries. "My injuries are not to the extent that they will kill me. I can hold on for a while. As long as they leave, we still have a chance."

Yuan Luo fell silent after hearing this. Huiji was right. They had no choice at this moment.

The cave was completely quiet, with only the occasional footsteps of the demon soldiers outside and the whistling of the wind. Perhaps because the atmosphere was too silent, the two boys and girls who had secretly developed feelings for each other since childhood did not get too nervous even at the moment of life and death, and instead started chatting.

"I don't know if we can escape today." Huiji's voice was like a bell floating in the wind, with a bit of relief, "I have no regrets, if I die with you."

She paused, suddenly remembering something, and looked into the depths of the cave. "Thinking about it carefully, it's not that there is nothing. In fact, there is one thing I'm curious about. Our village has been guarding the Great Yin Mountain for generations. Our ancestors said that a powerful demon is buried deep in the Great Yin Mountain."

"But no one knows who he is or where he came from. Many people even start to doubt whether the legend is just a lie told by our ancestors."

Yuan Luo was of course aware of this legend, but the ancestors of generations did not know who the buried important figure was, or rather, no one cared who it was.

Tomb-guarding village, tomb-guarding village, but how many people are born to guard tombs nowadays?

It's just because I live here and can't leave.

Huiji couldn't help but laugh at herself and said, "If we die here and are buried with that great man, it sounds so miserable. We have to guard his grave while we are alive, and we have to guard his grave after we die."

"I can fulfill your wish."

In an instant, a powerful aura suddenly descended, shaking the entire cave slightly.

Huiji's expression suddenly changed and she turned around quickly, only to find that Chaha had appeared silently behind her.

"The place is quite secret, but if I can't find it, my cultivation as a quasi-immortal will be meaningless." Chaha's tone was full of sarcasm, "You guys really know how to pick a place. Generally, no one comes here, so it's a good place to use as a cemetery."

Yuan Luo looked at the approaching figure, gritted his teeth, clenched his fists, and wanted to rush forward to fight to the death.

The funny thing is that it is difficult for a mortal to even move in front of the Nine Tribulations Quasi-Immortal. If Huiji hadn't helped him resist the pressure, he would have turned into a pool of blood and mud.

"Hui Ji." Yuan Luo squeezed out these words from between his teeth with difficulty, "Run!"

Huiji took a deep breath and calmed down. Then she suddenly slapped Yuan Luo with a light palm and pushed him deeper into the cave. "I'll stay behind to cover you. Don't look back. Keep going forward."

She pushed Yuan Luo away and immediately turned around to fight.

puff!

In a flash, Chaha condensed a long sword of true energy and instantly cut off Huiji's head from her neck.

At that moment, blood spurted out like a fountain. Huiji's body instantly lost support and she fell to the ground and died. Her head rolled to the side.

Yuan Luo stopped in his tracks, as if struck by lightning. His eyes widened and were bloodshot, his heart seemed to be torn apart, and his mouth opened. At this moment, the only spiritual support in his heart completely collapsed.

If no one had ever been kind to Yuan Luo, perhaps he would not care about life or death, but such a ray of light entered his world.

Now, the light is gone.

Others might have cursed, but Yuan Luo, who had been cursed since childhood, could not utter a single curse word. He just instinctively let out a low roar, his throat was even torn, and he kept spitting blood. (End of this chapter)
