Lu Xueqi's internal injuries were aggravated.

Blood kept spilling from the corner of his mouth.

The speed gradually slowed down.

Su Han saw this.

Without hesitation, he picked her up again and said, "I'm sorry."

Junior Sister Lu!

Lu Xueqi lay on Su Han's back.

I could feel the warmth and determination emanating from his broad back.

There are mixed feelings in my heart.

But at this moment, there's no time to worry about anything else.

I can only try my best to adjust my breathing.

Suppress the injuries.

Biyao saw Su Han carry Lu Xueqi on his back again.

His eyes darkened.

But his foot speed was by no means slow.

He stayed close to Su Han.

He would occasionally turn around and use the Nine Nether Mirror to release ghostly light to hinder the pursuers.

at last.

The East Gate is in sight!
But the city gates were already closed.

Torches blazed brightly on the city walls.

They have clearly been alerted.

"What should we do?" Biyao asked anxiously.

Su Han glanced at it.

Locating a shadowy corner of the city wall: "Go up from there!"

He took a deep breath.

Push the speed to the limit.

We arrived at the foot of the city wall.

Take a leap.

Standing on the city wall.

Sprinting upwards as if walking on flat ground!
Biyao followed closely behind.

Their movements were equally agile.

Just as they were about to leap onto the city wall.

Several powerful crossbow bolts pierced the air!

They are city defense soldiers!
Su Han was in mid-air.

There was nowhere to turn for help.

He was about to be shot!
"Be careful!" Lu Xueqi mustered her inner strength.

The Tianya Sword was swung out.

The sword light swept away most of the crossbow bolts.

Biyao promptly waved her sleeve to deflect one of the branches.

But Su Han's old strength has been exhausted.

New power has not yet emerged.

The figure paused.

In that very instant.

The Shadow Fiend leader and those few rogue cultivators had already caught up to the city walls.

They all jumped up.

Various attacks enveloped Su Han and his two companions, who were frozen in place!

The line between life and death!
A fierce glint flashed in Su Han's eyes.

It stopped trying to jump.

Instead, he gently lifted Lu Xueqi up from his back.

At the same time, he swung his sword backhand.

With unwavering determination.

They faced the Shadow Fiend leader and his men attacking from below!
He was actually going to use himself as bait.

Create an opportunity for Biyao and Lu Xueqi!
"Su Han!"

"Senior Brother Su!"

Biyao and Lu Xueqi exclaimed in surprise at the same time!

A resolute look flashed in Biyao's eyes.

Instead of taking the opportunity to go to the city, they did not.

Instead, his body sank.

The Nine Nether Mirror emitted an unprecedented eerie light.

Like a giant black vortex.

Standing beneath Su Han, he declared, "We'll die together!"

With Su Han's help, Lu Xueqi was sent to the top of the city wall.

She looked back and saw the perilous situation below.

There was almost no hesitation.

The Heavenly Sword erupted with an incomparably dazzling blue light.

She recklessly activated the starting stance of the Qingyun Sect's secret sword technique—the Divine Sword Thunder Control True Technique!

Although he was unable to fully utilize his abilities due to his injury.

But the power of heaven and earth that it stirred up has already changed the color of the wind and clouds!
"Boom!"

A tiny spark of lightning flashed at the tip of the Tianya Sword.

Although it has not yet gained momentum.

But the overwhelming divine might had already terrified the Shadow Fiend leader and his men who were rushing down from below.

His movements involuntarily froze!
This is the opportunity for stagnation!
Su Han and Bi Yao seized this fleeting opportunity!

Su Han's sword stance changed.

The offensive was replaced by a defensive one.

He put his arm around Biyao's waist.

Use the recoil from the enemy's attack below.

And the deterrent effect of Lu Xueqi's sword drawing lightning.

The two figures shot upwards like meteors.

They landed on the city wall with extreme difficulty!

"go!"

Su Han didn't stop.

One in each hand.

He pulled Lu Xueqi, who was almost exhausted, and Biyao, whose true energy was greatly depleted.

He leaped down from the tall city wall.

They disappeared into the vast darkness outside the city...

The Shadow Fiend leader and his men chased them to the top of the city wall.

All that could be seen were the backs of the three people walking away.

And the pitch-black wilderness outside the city.

He was so angry that he slammed his hand on the battlement.

Debris flew.

However, they ultimately dared not launch a large-scale pursuit out of the city in order to alert the city's defenses.

The hustle and bustle of Heyang City was left far behind. The three of them walked along a secluded path.

They fled forward without regard for anything else.

Until the outline of the city could no longer be seen.

Until the sky began to lighten with the first hint of dawn.

In a dense forest.

Su Han finally couldn't hold on any longer.

He stumbled and landed with Biyao and Lu Xueqi in his arms.

He looked pale.

Disordered breathing.

The continuous fierce battles and escapes exhausted his vital energy.

Biyao and Lu Xueqi were in extremely poor condition.

One's true essence is overdrawn.

An internal injury worsened.

The morning sun's rays filtered through the gaps in the leaves.

The light illuminated the three men's disheveled yet remarkably fortunate faces.

They relied on each other.

Breathing heavily.

No one spoke.

But it is a strange bond formed after going through life and death and fighting together.

It seems like at this moment.

It deepened quietly.

The road ahead remains unknown.

But at least.

They made it through together once again.

The morning light is dim.

The forest was filled with the crisp, quiet air of dawn.

Only the occasional chirping of early-rising birds.

It broke the silence.

The three sat together under an ancient tree that required several people to encircle.

The panting gradually subsided.

But the atmosphere carried a subtle, indescribable tension.

Su Han was the first to catch her breath.

He forcefully suppressed the waves of weakness emanating from his meridians.

His gaze swept over the two women beside him.

Lu Xueqi's face was as pale as paper.

A trace of blood remained at the corner of his mouth.

Her skin, which was originally as white and clear as snow, was now completely devoid of color.

She kept her eyes tightly closed.

Her long, thick eyelashes trembled slightly.

He was exerting all his strength to practice the Qingyun Sect's techniques.

He attempted to suppress the churning blood and qi within his body and aggravate his internal injuries.

His breath was very faint.

The other side.

Biyao is in slightly better condition.

However, the depletion of one's vital energy is also a serious problem.

Her pretty face showed signs of fatigue.

She leaned against the tree trunk.

His gaze fell on Su Han and Lu Xueqi with some complicated feelings.

Especially when she saw the undisguised worry in Su Han's eyes as he looked at Lu Xueqi.

Her eyes dimmed slightly.

But she quickly regained that stubborn and lively look.

"We must treat the injury as soon as possible."

Su Han spoke in a deep voice.

broke the silence.

His voice was hoarse from the intense battle.

Yet it exudes a reassuring calmness.

He looked at Biyao first.

"Miss Biyao."

Your Nine Nether Mirror is severely damaged.

Can my true energy still hold up?

Upon hearing this, Biyao...

A slight warmth touched my heart.

shook his head.

She said in a seemingly casual tone, "This young lady is, after all,... hmph."

We can manage this level of consumption.

You should check on your junior sister Lu first.

There was a hint of bitterness in her words that she herself was unaware of.

Su Han nodded.

This is definitely not the time for polite formalities.

He moved to Lu Xueqi's side.

He whispered, "Junior Sister Lu."

I'm sorry to offend you.

talking.

He extended his right index and middle fingers.

He gently placed his hand on Lu Xueqi's slender wrist to feel her pulse.

Lu Xueqi's body trembled almost imperceptibly.

He did not open his eyes.

He did not refuse.

But on those pale cheeks.

A faint blush seemed to flit across her face.

It vanished immediately.

Su Han focused his mind on sensing.

His brows gradually furrowed.

Lu Xueqi's pulse was disordered and weak.

A chilling internal energy surged through her eight extraordinary meridians.

It was clear that the old injury had been aggravated.

In addition, he forcibly activated the starting stance of the Divine Sword Thunder Control Technique.

Even worse.

If it is not addressed promptly.

This could damage the very foundation. (End of Chapter)
