The crazy uncle-master went on a killing spree, and the whole sect was burned to death!

Chapter 720: The acting was quite convincing.

Song Wanning remained motionless, and her expression clearly showed suspicion.

They practically had distrust written all over their faces.

Tianli didn't seem to mind and continued to attack the death energy.

Soon, he was injured, and the death energy seeped into his body through the wound, causing his skin to change color instantly.

His entire body turned dark, even his face became ashen, as if he were shrouded in deathly aura.

But he didn't give up and continued to fight against death.

Finally, after a quarter of an hour, a loud roar was heard, and the deathly aura dissipated, gradually disappearing from their sight.

The formation shattered instantly.

Tian Li coughed up a mouthful of blood, and the deathly aura around him quickly dissipated.

He clutched his wound and quickly retreated to Song Wanning's side.

Song Wanning stared at him with innocent eyes.

A glint of light flashed across Tian Li's eyes.

Then a bleak smile appeared on his face.

He took out a pill and put it in his mouth.

His injuries gradually healed, and his complexion improved.

"I knew you still doubted me."

A bitter smile appeared on Tian Li's face, and he shook his head.

"But we are truly allies."

"I believe that one day you will believe me."

As he spoke, he walked to the center of the formation, fiddled with it for a while, and dug out a hole.

This hole leads underground, and the salty, fishy smell hits your nose.

"Let's go down and have a look."

Tian Li jumped down into the cave without looking back, showing no intention of urging or pressuring Song Wan Ning.

"Sister, don't go. He must have set up an ambush down there."

Long Ling grabbed Song Wanning's collar and said nervously.

Does anyone know what's inside that hole?
After a moment of silence, Song Wanning decided to take a look.

Despite knowing the potential danger, she had no choice but to go.

She needed to figure out whether Tianli was an intruder from the awakened consciousness.

Upon reaching the cave entrance, Song Wanning scanned the area with her divine sense and, finding no danger, jumped down.

Below the cave entrance is a passageway.

Tian Li walked ahead, holding the luminous pearl. When he saw Song Wan Ning come down, a smile appeared on his face.

There was also a hint of relief in his voice.

Song Wanning raised an eyebrow and followed behind him, asking her question.

Have you been here before?

Tian Li shook his head. "This is my first time here. I just know some divination techniques and plan to leave this position."

Tianli's voice echoed in the cave, carrying a hint of daze.

Song Wanning didn't say anything more, she just followed behind.

Soon, the two stopped at another location, because a ferocious beast had appeared in front of them.

The beast exuded a long, deep aura, and its slightly open eyes showed only the whites of its eyes, without pupils.

It raised its head and stared at the two of them with a deep, unsettling gaze, its aura steadily increasing.

Tian Li shielded Song Wan Ning behind him and simply said, "I'll do it."

He then charged toward the ferocious beast.

Song Wanning stood at a distance, pondering Tian Li's intentions.

Is he trying to get me involved?
still is……

With this question in mind, she watched as Tianli fought fiercely with the ferocious beast, causing the entire cave to tremble continuously.

The surrounding rubble also began to collapse.

"boom--"

"Roar--"

The ferocious beast roared fiercely, its attacks becoming increasingly vicious, and soon Tian Li's body was covered in wounds.

Tian Li remained silent and continued his attack on the ferocious beast.

Perhaps knowing that Song Wanning wouldn't help, he didn't ask her for help again, even though his immortal power was almost exhausted.

This left the little ones completely baffled.

...Bang—

The ferocious beast collapsed to the ground, and Tian Li knelt down with a thud.

He was covered in blood, and his face was deathly pale from exhaustion.

Song Wanning walked over and, after confirming that the ferocious beast was dead, silently looked at Tian Li.

A complex look flashed in his eyes.

Tianli smiled at Song Wanning, "You won't die, don't worry."

"Who's worried about you?"

Song Wanning took a few steps back with a cold face and said nothing.

Tian Li's smile deepened as he struggled to his feet and hastily stuffed a few pills into his mouth.

His injury was quite serious, and he won't recover for a while.

After disposing of the beast's corpse, he limped over to Song Wanning's side and plopped down on it.

"Let me recover first, then we can move on."

"Since I brought you here, I will definitely protect your safety."

"You can trust me on this."

After Tian Li finished speaking, he stopped explaining and closed his eyes to begin recovering from his injuries.

Song Wanning's expression was complex, with a hint of inquiry. She glanced at him a few more times before sitting down beside him to protect him.

Everything seems calm.

Only after Tianli recovered from his injuries did the two continue walking forward.

The journey that followed was fraught with twists and turns, and various crises were encountered along the way.

Tian Lidu took the lead and rushed to the front, just as he had promised, protecting Song Wanning from any harm.

Song Wanning's attitude finally changed slightly.

Although still harboring doubts, a hint of worry appeared in his eyes as he looked at Tianli.

Not long after, Tian Li returned wounded again, this time even more severely.

I was completely exhausted.

Song Wanning frowned and stepped forward to help him up.

Looking at his tightly closed eyes, a look of struggle and conflict flashed across her face. She then took out a few pills and stuffed them into his mouth.

...

Time passed second by second, and Tianli finally woke up.

He looked at Song Wanning, his smile growing even brighter.

"Thank you!"

Song Wanning kept a straight face, looking like she didn't want to talk to him.

But Tianli laughed even more heartily.

So after recovering from their injuries, they continued their journey.

Not long after, they encountered another enormous ferocious beast.

Song Wanning secretly twitched her lips. Weren't these dangers being arranged too frequently?

She was quite tired.

"This ferocious beast has already reached the level of a Celestial Immortal..."

Tian Li's expression was serious, his eyes filled with apprehension.

Seemingly having made a great decision, he turned to Song Wanning and said, "If I perish here today, the task of clearing out the intruders will be entrusted to you!"

After saying that, he rushed towards the ferocious beast.

A hint of worry appeared on Song Wanning's face, but she remained standing without intervening.

It's just that I can no longer stand by and watch coldly as before.

Under the intense collision, Tian Li was quickly and seriously injured.

He kept spitting out mouthfuls of blood, and his life force rapidly waned.

A hint of worry flashed across Song Wanning's eyes, and she offered, "I'll help you!"

She picked up her longsword and was about to rush forward, but Tianli raised his hand again, "No need!"

"I can!"

"Don't get involved!!"

"One death is enough."

Having said that, he dragged his heavily injured body and charged towards the ferocious beast once more.

His heroic appearance made Song Wanning's eyes twitch slightly.

The acting was quite convincing...
