"Phew~ I'm so tired, I need to rest for a while."

Chen Feng found a relatively flat rock and put Cheng Tingxue down.

His plan was to take a longer route back to Pingcheng.

If he foolishly followed the official road, he would easily be discovered. Neither Tie Tu nor Xue Hai were people that Chen Feng, a mere Blood Refining Realm cultivator, could handle.

However, there is a problem.

How to determine direction?

Chen Feng only had the route he had memorized while escorting goods in his mind. As for this deep mountain forest, he was completely unfamiliar with it, so he couldn't stray too far from the main road to avoid getting lost.

"What do you think? Should we take the shortcut or the long way?" Chen Feng looked up and asked Cheng Tingxue.

"Huh? Oh, okay, I'll do as you say..."

Cheng Tingxue's lips were bloodless, as if she hadn't recovered yet.

I noticed her slightly chapped lips.

Chen Feng suddenly remembered.

Cheng Tingxue is just an ordinary person.

Now, the two of them have no food, no water, and are still some distance from Pingchen.

Even with a horse-drawn carriage, it would still take half a day.

Now it all depends on Chen Feng's legs. If they take a longer route and keep stopping, Cheng Tingxue doesn't know if she can make it back to Pingcheng.

Moreover, there are no places to rest like Zhangjia Village along the way.

Chen Feng couldn't quite figure out where the bandits' territory was and where the ordinary villages could offer them help.

"Are you alright?"

Seeing her eyes glazed over, Chen Feng quickly approached her and waved his hand in front of her face.

"I...I'm alright..."

Cheng Tingxue's voice was low and weak.

Chen Feng's expression changed.

He hurriedly pulled out bottles and jars from his pocket.

Traumatic injury medicine, hemostatic powder, detoxifying pills... none of them were of any use.

As for the tonic pills...

Eating just one Cheng Tingxue pill would make you burst!

This pill isn't even for those in the Blood Refining Realm. If Chen Feng didn't have the Taiji Profound Origin Technique, he wouldn't have bought it.

But now we have no choice but to try anything, even if it's a last resort. If Cheng Tingxue faints, it will only make things more complicated.

Chen Feng hurriedly said:

"Quick, open your mouth."

"ah......"

Cheng Tingxue obediently opened her mouth.

Chen Feng aimed at her small mouth and scraped off a little bit of the medicine residue from the tonic pill.

It landed on her tongue.

"Don't swallow, just hold it in your mouth. Don't try to be brave. Call me if you have any problems, understand?"

Cheng Tingxue nodded somewhat dazedly. As soon as the medicine entered her mouth, her complexion visibly became rosy.

Chen Feng was a little nervous, afraid that he had fed her too much.

After observing for a while, Chen Feng found that Cheng Tingxue seemed drowsy but otherwise fine, so he no longer hesitated.

Carrying Cheng Tingxue on his shoulders, he set off again.

This time, however, my steps were much steadyer, and I tried to reduce the shaking as much as possible. As a result, I was forced to slow down.

......

......

The moonlight cast the intertwined branches of the tree onto the ground.

Just as described in the text of my previous life, the water was clear and still, with algae and duckweed crisscrossing.

But Chen Feng had no interest in appreciating it.

Cheng Tingxue, who was on his back, seemed to have fainted and remained silent for a long time.

Chen Feng was breathing rapidly, his chest gurgling like an old bellows.

At this moment, he had a large tonic pill in his mouth.

If you feel weak, chew a little bit and swallow it.

By leveraging the rapid absorption capabilities of Tai Chi Xuan Yuan Gong, one can replenish Qi and blood, keeping one's speed within a fixed range.

Just keep running like this.

We'll be in Pingcheng soon.

However......

[Being hunted down...]

[Experience +1000]

The system notification had sounded several minutes earlier, and Chen Feng guessed that Cheng Li was no longer able to hold on.

"Faster..."

Chen Feng gritted his teeth, preparing to speed up.

A chilling cold suddenly swept over me from behind; it wasn't the wind, but rather a murderous intent.

Chen Feng's heart sank suddenly.

Alarm bells rang in my mind.

In a moment of desperation, he turned his head away.

next moment.

A steel knife, gleaming with a cold light, whistled past his ear.

Finally, it was firmly nailed to the tree trunk in front of it!

Chen Feng: "!!!"

Isn't he afraid of hurting Cheng Tingxue?

Chen Feng turned around and saw a burly black figure burst out of the bushes like a giant elephant, crashing into Chen Feng!

The speed was so fast that it caught everyone off guard.

"Boy, put him down!"

Tie Tu's rough voice made Chen Feng's eardrums ache.

"grass!"

Chen Feng couldn't help but swear, and his legs swung even faster, at which point the idiot finally stopped.

Running at full speed, completely disregarding the depletion of his blood energy, Tie Tu couldn't catch up with him for a while.

But at this rate of consumption...

Before long, Chen Feng's vital energy will be completely depleted.

As he ran, he changed Cheng Tingxue's posture.

With one hand supporting her knee and the other protecting her back, he steadily placed Cheng Tingxue horizontally in front of him.

In their haste, they made too big of a move.

Cheng Tingxue opened her eyes in a daze and saw Chen Feng holding her, gritting his teeth, and sprinting forward.

Cheng Tingxue subconsciously gripped Chen Feng's clothes tightly.

She was completely encircled in his arms.

Her cheek pressed against Chen Feng's warm chest, her heart seemed to be burning.

"stop!!!"

Tie Tu's furious voice rang out.

Piercing the silent night sky.

Cheng Tingxue was startled and looked in horror behind Chen Feng, only to see the fierce-looking Tie Tu rushing towards them!

The distance between the two sides is gradually being closed.

"You...you're awake!"

Chen Feng exclaimed in delight.

Seemingly sensing Chen Feng's burning gaze, a blush crept up Cheng Tingxue's cheeks and spread towards her ears.

next second!

"Quick! I can't hold on much longer! I have medicine in my pocket, take it out and give it to me! Hurry!"

Chen Feng urged loudly.

If Cheng Tingxue didn't wake up soon, Chen Feng was going to shake her awake.

A life-or-death situation.

How can you sleep so soundly!

At least it can play some role.

"oh oh."

Cheng Tingxue frantically reached for Chen Feng's chest, searching for the pills he had mentioned.

"There are two bottles! Which one?!"

Chen Feng glanced quickly at his chest; Cheng Tingxue was holding two bottles of pills, looking bewildered.

One bottle of detoxifying pills, and one bottle of tonic pills.

"The bottle in the left hand!"

Cheng Tingxue hurriedly put the bottle in her right hand back in, then opened the stopper and poured out a large tonic pill into her palm.

Then he raised it and offered it to Chen Feng's mouth.

Chen Feng swallowed it all at once.

The Tai Chi Xuan Yuan Gong was fully activated.

In just a few breaths.

He absorbed the pill completely, and its immense medicinal power exploded within his body.

His limbs, his entire body, every cell in his body, seemed to have been starving for a long time and were now frantically eating.

Chen Feng felt a surge of qi and blood.

The speed, which had slowed down slightly, picked up again.

Tie Tu: "??!"

Tie Tu gritted his teeth. "I don't believe it! How long can you, a mere Blood Refining Realm cultivator, last?!"

Tie Tu's cultivation method is more inclined to allow him to stand still and fight by exchanging blood, and he can even fight multiple opponents at once.

The downside is that he is much slower than other martial artists of the same level.

Speed ​​has always been his weakness.

But in terms of endurance...

He couldn't believe he would lose to a Blood Refining Realm martial artist!

"Run! I'll see who gives up first, you or me!"

Tie Tu threatened viciously.

After bone strengthening, both the quantity and quality of qi and blood are vastly different.

There are huge differences between each realm.

Tie Tu was confident that once he caught Chen Feng, even without a knife, he could kill Chen Feng with two punches!

Chen Feng understood.

If he slows down and is overtaken by Tie Tu, he will surely die.

So he hugged Cheng Tingxue tightly and solemnly instructed her, "Just like before, every time I call out, you hand me a pill! Understand?"

"Yes, I understand!"

Cheng Tingxue gripped the porcelain bottle tightly in her hand.

It was like grasping at the last straw.
