It doesn't matter what the lord is.

Together, they set off without distraction, unleashing all the potential of the body for the final sprint.

His arms were already starting to ache, and even though his skin was thick, his forearms were already turning purple.

Eighty meters, seventy meters, fifty meters, forty meters.

Twenty meters.

Zhubis's eyes blurred, and suddenly a light flashed from the upper side. It was a very weak sunlight in the dark forest.

Zhubis stopped instantly.

It took only a few tenths of a second to adjust to the change in light, and then came ecstasy. In front of him was an open space with relatively few trees in the forest. The open space was not big, about half the size of a basketball court. Three people stood there, the human woman holding a sword was in the front, but it was obvious at a glance that she was seriously injured and had not yet recovered, and it was impossible for her to hold on for too long. Behind her was a human boy who looked very weak. He had no aura at all. He should be the useless Lord of Yuxi City in the rumors.

The most important thing is the elven girl hiding next to the city lord and grabbing his sleeve.

Familiar blonde hair, familiar face, familiar scent.

A familiar, delicious feeling.

Seeing the posture of the three people, Spiderbis realized that they had completely given up on escaping. Knowing that they could not outrun him, they planned to turn back and fight to the death.

Zhubis exhaled a breath of foul air, and a smile returned to its face. It stared at Delis and said:

"I didn't expect Her Highness the Princess to be here. I had a hard time finding her. If you've had enough fun, come back with me. Don't worry, the one you'll marry is completely different from me. He's not scary at all, he's gentle and young. Once you see him, you'll regret ever wanting to run away from him. You'll have a very high status in the future... so don't make things difficult for me."

Delis was trembling all over, but after hearing this, she still showed disdain and said coldly:

"I am the princess of the elves. Even if I die, I will never let you lowly demons touch me! You demons kidnapped me openly. Aren't you afraid that my father will lead his troops to annihilate you demons?!"

Spiderbis didn't respond. This was not something it should reveal.

However, when Delis finished speaking, the smile on Zhubis's face became more contemptuous.

It stopped talking to Delis and focused its eyes on Alayya who was already in a stance.

Alaya couldn't see its specific realm, but it could easily see that Alaya was at the level of the sixth level of perfection, which was no different from what it sensed from afar. Except for the fact that when they came into close contact, it found that her sword energy was too abundant and far exceeded the average level of the sixth level of perfection, it was exactly as expected.

--too weak.

It is useless to hide more cards. The crushing advantage in realm is difficult to make up for.

There was a difference of two realms, and the opponent might not be able to break through his defense, not to mention that he was so seriously injured.

The only thing he had to worry about was to avoid hurting Delis when he attacked. He knew how important this woman was. Otherwise, as a demon that prioritized selfishness, how could he leave such a beautiful woman alone and not dare to eat her? He tried to vent his anger on Alayya who passed by, but was tricked by the tiger away from the mountain and had to go through so much trouble?

With a change of mind, Zhubis chose to attack.

It suddenly threw out a ball of spider web, and the gray-white spider web flashed like lightning. Alaya instinctively swung her sword, but the spider web was very resilient. A crack was cut into the sticky ball, but it stuck together without breaking. The spider web did not hit Alaya, but brushed past her body, wrapped around Delis and flew backwards, sticking Delis firmly to a tree.

Only half of Delis's head was left outside, and even her mouth was blocked by spider silk. She wanted to scream but couldn't. She was so frightened that tears instantly filled her eyes.

Reed followed and checked on Delis's condition, and also distanced himself from the main battlefield.

Alayya took a breath and picked up the sword again, her face completely pale.

The gap in realm is indeed too big.

If she was only one realm away, she would have a chance to break through the sticky web of the spider with her sharp sword energy. But she couldn't do it now.

The web is both a restraint and a protection. It is invulnerable to weapons and there is no need to worry about accidentally hurting Delis in the subsequent battle. Thinking of this, the eyes of the spider were full of murderous intent. It didn't think that the weak human boy behind was capable of running such a long distance with two people. It could only be this seriously injured human woman.

If it weren't for her, I wouldn't have been worried for such a long time, and I wouldn't have dreamed every night that I was beheaded for my incompetence!

When he thought about the fact that this human girl who had played him around was only at the sixth level of perfection in the sword art, Zhubis became even more furious.

It took a breath, and its chest swelled up. It didn't exhale, but its chest slowly deflated. A light green gas slowly flowed out of its skin and wrapped around it. The spider moved its eight legs, let out a long roar, and rushed directly towards Alayya like an invincible steel chariot.

Alayya sensed the danger, but she couldn't dodge at this distance, so she could only raise her sword to resist.

After a loud bang, Alayya was knocked back. More than half of the wounds on her body burst open, several ribs were broken, one pierced into her lung, and a mouthful of blood foam splashed in the air.

Zhubis narrowed his eyes and looked at Alayya floating in the air. He swung his fist that had broken countless ancient trees and punched Alayya in the abdomen, knocking her down from the air and landing heavily in the mud, causing the surrounding ground to sag downward and raising dust.

Zhubis looked at his arm. A sword was stuck in it, half way inside. His white arm was already covered in blood.

At that moment, Alayya stabbed its arm with a sword, but unfortunately the force was not enough, so it only penetrated but failed to pierce through completely.

It drew out the scarlet sword and threw it aside, then walked towards Alayya, whose life or death was unknown, and raised and punched down again.

42. I want to say three words to you

Spiderbis's punch was not fast, but it was very powerful.

But it didn't expect that Alaya still had the strength to roll to the side and barely avoided the punch. But the punch shattered the soil under Alaya layer by layer, and the powerful force directly threw Alaya, who had already rolled to the side, and hit a tree heavily. After this, Spider Bis frowned slightly again, leaned down and looked down, and found that the scarlet long sword that it had thrown away before was now chopping on one of its limbs, and the blade was one-third sunken, and emerald green liquid kept flowing.

Alayya took this opportunity to use [Dragon] to support her body and barely stand up from the ground. She wanted to walk towards Zhubis again, but after taking two steps, her eyes suddenly widened and she fell straight to the ground. The originally silver-white sword energy slowly turned black, her body curled up unnaturally, and her hands and feet were shaking.

Zhubis drew out the scarlet sword nonchalantly and glanced at Alayya calmly.

"The spider demon's greatest reliance is not its flexible web, nor its strong body, but its poison."

It moved its eight legs, one of which looked a little unnatural. The wound from the [Scarlet Fire] was still very painful, and although it did not affect its walking, its body balance was inevitably slightly affected.

Alayya mobilized the sword energy in her body, trying to force the poison out of her body. But unfortunately, her breath was already very weak, and it took most of her strength to barely protect her main meridians from being invaded by the poison. The remaining energy was not enough to support her to move a finger.

Spiderbis threw out a ball of spider web, which also stuck her to the ground, and then walked towards Delis.

From beginning to end, it never took the human boy seriously.

Zhubis didn't plan to kill Alayya now, because if Alayya died, her sword energy would instantly spread to the world, benefiting other demons living on this land. It needed to eat Alayya in one go, but before that, it needed to confirm Delis's situation first.

It walked to the sturdy old tree, and with a stroke of its two front paws, it lifted Delis, who was tied up in the spider web, in front of it with both hands. It touched her forehead with one hand, and a trace of magic power instantly entered her body, traveled along the meridians, and returned to Spiderbiss's body.

Nothing unusual.

She was still a virgin, and there were no wounds on her body that might leave scars. It could be seen that she was well protected by the two humans. Only then did Zhubisi feel relieved. Delis was no different from when she escaped just now, and the two humans who kidnapped her were now caught. Even if the person above investigated, it would be completely justified.

Life saved.

Zhubis breathed a sigh of relief.

The long chase consumed a lot of its physical strength, and this moment of relaxation made it a little dazed. Many things emerged in its mind, Delis was safe, Alayya was an unexpected gain, and it finally lived up to the trust of that adult. Its strength will soon be improved again...

Among many, many thoughts, only the perception of danger and the habit of staying alert slowly faded away.

So at this moment, something strange happened!

There was a slight rustling sound from the leaves above Zhubisi, and a petite figure fell lightly, without any breath on her body, like an ordinary fallen leaf. Zhubisi was completely unaware, but in the blink of an eye, the distance between the two sides was shortened to within a few feet, and a dagger instantly stabbed Zhubisi's back.

It was not until the dagger approached that Spiderbiss suddenly realized it. It let out a loud roar and quickly moved to the side. It knew that it was too late to fight back and could only avoid the vital points as much as possible.

However, what really panicked it was that no matter how it moved, the murderous intent from behind could never be dispelled.

It could feel the steel piercing its flesh. Its chest first felt cold, then instantly became hot, as if there was a fire burning endlessly there. Blood splattered, and Zhubisi's fear was frozen on his face, his heart sinking. The unknown assassin obviously had no intention of letting it go. With one hand, he grabbed the dagger that had pierced its back, and his small body hung on Zhubisi's back. With the other arm shaking, a dagger fell into his palm and kept flying. Silver light flashed, and more than ten wounds were instantly blown up on Zhubisi's back.

Zhubis clenched his fist and punched behind him, but the opponent had already noticed it and swung his body to land beside Zhubis. The punch hit nothing.

The first dagger pierced into the heart of Spiderbis, taking away all chances of survival.

The second dagger cut open its back to kill it faster.

Zhubis knew that he couldn't hold on for much longer, so he turned his head to the side, wanting to see the assassin who attacked him. He had figured it out, because no demon had caught up with him for such a long time, he must have been ambushed. He had been on guard, but because of a moment of relaxation, he was still found an opportunity. Then, Xue Zheng and Hei Guang might not even know what happened, and died silently on the way to tracking Delis.

I just wonder which faction of the demon clan, northwest or south, is the person with such means?

Or has the supreme being sitting in the middle already sensed their plan and sent out assassins in advance?

Countless questions flooded into my mind, but they were completely cleared up the moment I saw the assassin.

Zhubis was dumbfounded, his mind went blank.

It never occurred to it that it was a human being.

Little human girl!

The cloak on his body was tattered, his face was covered in dirt and wounds, and it was obvious that the journey had not been easy. The most important thing was the pair of eyes exposed under the hood, which you would never forget once you saw them. There was no love or hate, no heart or emotion, no light at all, just like a dead person.

Zhubis's eyes turned red, and he gathered all his strength. Emerald green poisonous mist appeared around his body again.

It roared loudly and rushed towards the assassin like crazy.

It was a pity that the long run and the battle with Alayya had already exhausted its physical strength, and the dagger stuck in its heart was the last straw that broke the camel's back.

The female assassin retreated lightly, her toes touching the ground and her body floating backwards. Spiderbiss failed to hit her and fell heavily to the ground.

The huge body collapsed like a mountain and turned into a pool of mud in an instant.

The spider demon's poison is indeed brutal, but if the spider demon itself is seriously injured, the huge amount of toxins in its body will corrode itself.

After confirming that Zhubis was dead, the assassin walked out slowly with the dagger in his hand. In front of Delis's shocked eyes, he walked in front of Lid, raised his little face, and looked into Lid's eyes quietly without saying a word. Lid seemed to understand what she meant, squatted down, and gently touched her head.

The little girl threw the bloody dagger on the ground, moved her mouth, and said three words solemnly:

"I'm hungry."

43. I want a hug too

Lid looked at Shiloh helplessly.

She was dirty all over, one of her shoes was missing, her bare feet were bleeding, and the wounds were covered with dust. When she stood, her hands hung in her tattered black cloak, and it was hard to tell how many injuries she had suffered, but it was obvious that she looked tired, which was rare.

Lid didn't know how she had caught up with him. He had taken Alayya to many places along the way, and had traveled a long distance through the land where the demons lived. Not to mention the painstaking efforts to find Lid's location based on clues, just walking this route again alone was already quite incredible.

But Shiloh just came, without any reason and without any complaint.

It's as if everything is so natural.

Lid took his hand off Shiloh's head, rubbed her stiff little face, and said with a smile:

"I'll cook for you later."

After finishing speaking, Lid walked towards Alayya. Shiloh nodded, grasped the dagger stained with the blood of the spider's heart, walked towards Delis, and helped her cut the sticky spider silk on her body. He did not say a word during the whole process.

Delis looked at Shiloh with the dagger nervously, but Shiloh seemed to ignore her at all. After breaking the spider web, he immediately put away the dagger and stood aside silently.

Delis got up from the ground, flexed her wrists, looked Shiloh up and down for a while, and asked:

"Are you from Yuxi City?"

Shiloh didn't answer.

Delis asked again:

"You were able to kill that spider... What realm are you in?"

Shiloh still didn't answer. His eyes were slightly narrowed and his body swayed rhythmically from side to side, as if he was sleeping.

Delis was a little embarrassed and added:

"So what's your relationship with Lid?"

This time, Shiloh opened his eyes, looked at her, and replied:

"I will help him kill those who want to kill him."

With that, Xi Luo lowered his head again. A demon that looked like a bean worm slowly crawled over from the ground. When it crawled in front of Xi Luo, it raised half of its body and looked around, just in time to meet Xi Luo's dead eyes. The bean worm immediately lay down and tried to leave quickly, but was caught by Xi Luo in his hand at lightning speed, raised his head, opened his mouth, and swallowed it with a gulp.

Flowing clouds and flowing water, all in one go.

Delis felt goose bumps all over her body. She quickly moved several meters to the side and no longer dared to talk to Shiloh.

Shiloh didn't even look at her. He lowered his head and was concentrating on finding the beanworm's companion.

After a moment, a slight groan was heard from Lid. Shiloh immediately raised his head, showing a slightly confused look, and then quickly rushed over there, and in a few steps he was beside Lid and Alayya.

Alaya was now lying on the ground, the spider webs were torn apart by Lid's bare hands, and now scattered in twos and threes. Because of the serious injuries before, and the poison from the spider, Alaya was now unconscious on the ground. Shiloh could tell at a glance that the clothes on Alaya's chest had been moved and were messy. Looking down from the collar, he could vaguely see the white gauze, which should have been bandaged by Lid just now.

Shiloh didn't think there was anything wrong with it. Alaya's ribs were broken, and whether it was for bone setting or healing, the obstructing fabric needed to be removed first. Besides, Alaya's flat chest might not be as big as hers, so strictly speaking, it didn't seem to be anything good.

What she was concerned about was Alaya's injury, which was much less serious than she had imagined. She clearly remembered that Alaya was seriously injured, at least half a foot into the underworld, but now she found that it was not that serious. This made Xi Luo a little confused. She was confident that she had not seen it wrong just now, as if Alaya had recovered a lot in an instant.

Shiloh looked to the side and saw that Reed had wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth calmly. His face looked terrible, but he still smiled as if nothing had happened and winked at her.

Shiloh looked back at Delis, and after making sure that she couldn't hear him, he said to Lid mercilessly:

"You could have prevented her from getting hurt. Why did you take the hurt upon yourself after she got hurt?"

Reed covered his splitting headache and did not answer.

Xiluo knew clearly that he could hide his strength. That day, he protected Xiluo and beat away the King Qin Guang, King Pingdeng and King Chujiang of Lingwu [Ten Hells] alone, and negotiated with the Lord of Lingwu to exchange Xiluo for Yuxi City. The eight-level perfect Zhubisi looked very strong, but in Xiluo's eyes, such a guy was not even an [opponent] to Lid.

Shiloh said again:

"Your power is all for killing. Saving people is not gentle enough. If you forcibly heal her, you will have to remove your killing aura first, and you will suffer the backlash. And if you make a mistake, you may destroy all her meridians."
