Everyone ascended, but I didn't get on board

Chapter 109 The Fleeing Little Demon

There were too many little demons gathered in the temple before, so naturally they didn't all go in the same direction when they escaped over the wall. However, more of Qiu Ci and his group escaped, so most people chased them in that direction, while Jing Hong chased them in another direction.

The sudden burst of sword energy at this moment clearly showed that something had happened.

"Go and take a look!" Senior Brother Jiang was naturally aware of this, so he left a few students to watch over the group of little demons and led the others towards the direction of the sword energy.

Qiu Ci naturally followed.

The Social Anxiety Jing's pursuit route was clearly opposite theirs, and it seemed to be taking a more remote route, deep into the dense forest. They flew for a full half-minute before they saw Social Anxiety Jing, his whole body surging with sword energy. He was summoning a sky-full sword formation to bombard a stone forest ahead, as if searching for something.

Not far behind him stood a woman who looked like an ordinary person in the town, wearing a gray, coarse linen shirt with a terrified look in her eyes. Scars could be seen faintly under her torn sleeves.

All the students were stunned for a moment, and flew down with some confusion.

The woman was startled when she saw them, and quickly shouted towards the social anxiety scene in the sky, "Master, the other immortal masters are here."

Jing Hong paused as he summoned the sword formation, then stopped and flew back, turning to look at everyone.

"Junior Brother Jing, what's going on?" Senior Brother Jiang asked loudly, why did he suddenly attack the stone forest, and why was the noise so loud.

Jing Hong frowned slightly, and his already indifferent face became even colder. He seemed unwilling to respond. After a while, he said coldly, "Escape, chase."

"What?" Senior Brother Jiang was stunned, obviously not understanding, and the other students looked even more confused.

Jing Hong did not continue speaking, but maintained the sword formation in the air. He seemed too lazy to explain to them. Seeing that dissatisfaction was about to appear on everyone's faces, Zhen Yi on the side understood it immediately and took over the conversation directly.

"You mean, a demon has escaped into this stone forest, and you want to use the sword formation to force it out?" Zhen Yi said seriously, looking at the mortal woman next to him, "Then what about this woman?"

"..." Socially anxious Jing still didn't speak, but glanced indifferently in the direction behind him.

"From the temple!" Zhen Yi was startled, looking up and down at the still terrified woman. "There was someone else in the temple just now, and they were captured by the monster and brought here. Did you chase them all the way here?"

"..."

"Or someone from this town? Could it be that the purpose of the monsters tonight is to capture this woman?"

"..."

"That makes sense. We'll find out once we force the demon out and ask him."

"..."

"Understood. We will cooperate with you. You can use the sword formation to force them out and capture them alive."

The two quickly reached a consensus.

Senior Brother Jiang: “…”

People on the side: "..."

What?
Did they say anything?

Senior Brother Jinghong clearly didn't say a word, so how did you guys communicate?
And why did Master Chu and Junior Sister Feng Ting also nod?

Were they just deaf?

(｀Д)!!
"Senior Brother Jiang," Zhen Yi said calmly, "Why don't you arrange for everyone to disperse. There's only one gap here, and it shouldn't be difficult to seize it."

"Ah? Oh, okay." Senior Brother Jiang nodded, signaling everyone to disperse. Socially anxious Jing didn't hold back any longer. He changed his hand gestures, and the sword formation in the sky instantly closed. It instantly transformed into thousands of spiritual swords, which rained down on the stone forest, and there was a loud rumbling sound for a while.

A large cloud of dust rose up, and rocks broke into pieces. A wisp of green air was mixed in the dust, and it was fleeing towards this side at a very fast speed.

"It's out." Zhen Yi reminded loudly, and everyone also made hand gestures.

Seeing that the green evil spirit was getting thicker and thicker, and was being chased by the rain of swords from the sky and heading straight towards this side, the ferocious beast shape could be vaguely seen in it. Jing Hong, who had been standing in the front, made his sword moves faster. When he was about to hit the green smoke, a scream suddenly came from the side.

“Ahhh…” The mortal woman who was originally standing at the back seemed to be frightened by the approaching demonic figure. She suddenly rushed towards the social phobia scene in front of her and screamed loudly, “Monster! Monster ahhhh!”

Socially anxious Jing was completely unprepared and was pounced on by the opponent, causing his body to fall with a clang. The spiritual power gathered in his hands dispersed, and the sword formation in the air collapsed instantly.

"Senior Brother Jing, sword formation!" Zhen Yi was shocked, but it was too late to remedy the situation.

Taking advantage of the sword formation's ineffectiveness at that moment, the monster that was forced out turned into a wisp of green smoke and fled away, disappearing in an instant.

"Escaped?" This sudden change was unexpected by all the students present, not to mention Jing himself, who was suffering from social anxiety.

They turned back angrily to look at the mortal woman. She obviously didn't know what she had done. Her face was full of fear and horror. Her hands were tightly grasping Jing Hong, and she said tremblingly, "Monster, Immortal Master... Immortal Master, save me, save me quickly."

"What are you doing!" one disciple couldn't help but ask, "If you hadn't come out, we would have caught the monster."

The woman shuddered at the other party's roar and muttered, "But... monsters are so... so scary!"

"Forget it, forget it, don't scare her." A female student couldn't bear it and quickly stepped forward to stop her. "She's just an ordinary person, it's normal for her to be scared. We should have let her go to the back just now."

The other party frowned, but finally stopped accusing him of anything.

"Girl, don't be afraid. Everything is fine now." The female student continued, "Where is your home? Shall we take you back first?"

"I don't want it!" The woman suddenly refused loudly and subconsciously shook off the female student's hand, but she quickly reacted and said softly, "Thank...thank you all, immortal masters. I...I'm fine. I can just go back to the temple."

"You're still going back to the temple?" Everyone was shocked. "Aren't you afraid that monster will come back again?"

"It's okay...the goddess will protect me." The woman said hesitantly.

"Then why didn't I bless you just now?"

"This..." The woman was speechless and lowered her head silently.

"That temple is suspicious. You must never go there again." The female student advised, making hand gestures and saying, "If you're too scared, I can help you seal your memories of tonight and then send you back."

"No!" The woman quickly shook her head and took a step back.

"Then let's go, we'll take you back."

"..." The woman remained motionless, as if she had not yet recovered from the fear she had just experienced, and her eyes were even more vague.

Qiu Ci, who had been watching from the sidelines, suddenly spoke.

"Let's take her back to the Li Mansion first." She looked at the woman, her eyes narrowed slightly, and said softly, "We may still need her help with the demon plague."

When everyone thought about it and realized that it was true, they were not in a hurry to send the other person home.

This time the woman did not refuse and followed him back to town obediently.
