Martial Arts Immortal Saint: Starting from Feeding Horses and Escorting Goods
Chapter 18: A harrowing escape after all 9 people have perished.
Lu Chuan suddenly looked up.
From above, an even taller figure swooped down.
This was also a giant ape, but it was much larger and had a stronger aura. Its fur was pale yellow, making it significantly stronger than the previous one.
It swooped down from the sky, its sharp claws aimed straight at Wang Ying.
Wang Ying, who had just been knocked back by the ape-like creature on the ground, was still in a state of shock and had no time to dodge.
"No!"
His eyes widened in horror as he stared at the sharp claws that suddenly magnified in his pupils.
"Pfft!"
The ape's sharp claws pierced through Wang Ying's chest and emerged from his back, instantly staining his back with blood.
"Well……"
Wang Ying's eyes were practically bulging out, and they were bloodshot.
The excruciating pain of his heart being torn apart caused his body to stiffen, and within a few breaths he had no life left.
The sudden scene instantly terrified everyone present.
No one expected that there would be a second ape-like monster, and the aura of this ape-like monster was comparable to that of a second-level spirit-rank monster with two meridian openings!
"Damn it!"
Cao Rang was shocked and furious, and completely panicked.
Behind them, Lu Chuan did not hesitate. Before anyone could react, he leaped off his horse and headed in the direction behind him.
"Whoosh!"
He channeled his inner strength into his legs and sprinted like a whirlwind.
Lu Chuan had anticipated that something unexpected might happen, and now it has indeed come true.
Now that Wang Ying has also been killed, they have absolutely no chance of winning!
Almost everyone present was of a higher level than him. If he didn't run away first, he would surely die!
Cao Rang reacted extremely quickly; the moment he saw Wang Ying being killed, he immediately abandoned the idea of fighting.
His eyes hardened, he pushed off the ground with both legs and charged forward. Before the two henchmen in front of him could react, he grabbed their necks with his hands like eagle claws.
"Cao... the镖头 (镖头 is a term used to describe a镖师, meaning镖师, a镖师 who is a镖师)!"
The two men's faces turned red, their expressions filled with terror, and they were completely suppressed and powerless to resist.
Cao Rang threw the two men backward with both hands, tossing them like chickens towards the two ape-like creatures behind him.
"Cao Rang, you deserve to die!"
The others were shocked, never expecting Cao Rang to be so ruthless.
However, Cao Rang ignored their opinions and directly activated his own powerful horsemanship technique, just like Lu Chuan, and began to flee for his life.
"what!"
The two men who were thrown out screamed in agony. They had been caught by the ape-like creature, which had bitten through their necks, and blood gushed out.
Thus, five people have died tragically!
Lu Chuan was the first to flee, followed closely by Cao Rang.
Of the remaining three, only one had also practiced movement techniques, but he was not proficient in any of them.
As Lu Chuan fled ahead, he heard the screams of these people coming from behind.
"That's how Changfeng Escort Agency scouted the area..."
He felt a chill in his heart, a mixture of shock and anger.
My clothes were soaked with cold sweat, but I could only run desperately without daring to look back.
He could sense that Cao Rang was not far behind him.
About a quarter of an hour passed, and just when Cao Rang thought he had escaped the tiger's mouth, a beast's roar came from not far behind, accompanied by the tremors of a beast running rapidly across the ground.
"They've caught up?"
Cao Rang's face twitched.
He glanced at Lu Chuan, who was less than ten meters ahead, his eyes sharp with malice, and immediately feigned a startled cry, warning, "Lu Chuan, be careful! There's another monster in front of you! Quickly dodge to the left!"
But secretly, his right hand had already transformed into an eagle claw, suddenly reaching out and heading straight for Lu Chuan's neck, waiting for him to be stunned before sacrificing him!
However, Lu Chuan is not stupid.
During his escape, he heard someone angrily rebuking Cao Rang, and he knew what had happened without even turning around.
He had always thought this guy was cunning and scheming, and that he wouldn't fall for his tricks now.
He pretended to pause slightly, then instantly channeled more internal energy into his legs and shot out in a flash.
Cao Rang, who thought he was about to succeed, grabbed at the ground with all his might but missed. He slipped on the gravel, lost his balance, and staggered forward, his speed suddenly decreasing.
In just a few breaths, the ape-like creature caught up from behind!
The one chasing after it was a spirit-level second-tier ape-like creature. Its intelligence was obviously higher, and it knew that by eating the person in front of it, it could obtain more essence and help it become stronger!
"Damn it, damn it!"
Cao Rang was so flustered that his mouth was trembling and his face was deathly pale.
He had no chance to escape, so he could only turn around and fight the ape-like monster with his sword.
Ahead, Lu Chuan knew he couldn't go down a dead end. When he reached a place where the rock face was slightly flatter, he immediately used the Wind-Stepping Technique to climb up the rocks, using both his hands and feet.
Just as they reached the highest point and were about to head to the other side of the rock face, they heard a piercing scream from below.
He subconsciously turned his head and glanced at it.
On the gravel path of the canyon, Cao Rang was pinned to the ground by the ape-like creature. One of his legs had been broken and was covered in blood, with bloodstains everywhere on the ground.
His head was held down tightly, and his neck had already been bitten through by the sharp fangs of the ape!
"They're all dead!"
Lu Chuan's pupils shrank suddenly, and a wave of fear washed over him. Without hesitation, he flipped over and landed on the other side of the rock wall.
……
"Splash!"
Deep in the forest, Lu Chuan ignored the stinging thorns and grasses and kept running. Even though his inner strength was exhausted and he was completely worn out, he still dared not stop.
It wasn't until noon, when they were panting heavily from exhaustion, that they gritted their teeth and found a relatively secluded cave to hide in.
"Huff... huff..."
Lu Chuan leaned against a rock, his face pale, his clothes torn in many places, looking extremely disheveled.
He wouldn't have dared to stop if he hadn't been completely exhausted.
He dared not gamble on whether the ape-like creature would catch up; if it did, he would surely die.
After a short rest, he forced himself to get up and rest in the cave for a while, regulating his breathing and meditating to recover his internal energy.
About half an hour later, he recovered some of his internal energy, his complexion gradually became rosy, and then he opened his eyes.
"We've gotten rid of it."
Only then did Lu Chuan dare to truly relax a little.
Perhaps it was because his cultivation level was too low that he couldn't absorb much essence from killing it, which is why the ape-like monster didn't relentlessly pursue him.
Of the ten people on this trip, everyone except him died tragically!
He recalled that Cao Rang had ultimately been treacherous and malicious in trying to capture him as a sacrifice.
"If you hadn't harbored such malicious thoughts that ended up harming yourself, you might have been able to escape with me."
Lu Chuan's eyes were cold; he felt no pity for these people who had died.
"We need to hurry back; this area is not safe."
Lu Chuan stood up, preparing to head straight back to Canglan Prefecture.
However, after taking only two steps, he suddenly remembered something and his steps froze instantly.
"We can't go back..."
His face looked rather grim.
Of the group that came out, all nine of them were at the Changfeng level, including two who were at the Tongmai level.
He was the only one from Zhenyuan who made it back alive.
All the goods are gone, and everyone is dead!
Everything is gone!
How could he possibly have a good ending?
