Chapter 57: Joining Forces with Xiao Yun.
Hearing Xiao Yun’s cry, Su Lingxi also put away her playful thoughts with the bald man and his companion.
Su Lingxi would not leave Xiao Yun alone.
Xiao Yun was no match and fell straight to the ground, his whole body twitching from the electricity.
Seeing Xiao Yun like this, Su Lingxi didn’t dare to get close to him for the time being. She sent a stream of spiritual energy into Xiao Yun’s body from a distance to disperse the lightning power, which made Xiao Yun feel a little better.
“Don’t you dare run!”
The bald man and the balding man on the other side withdrew their spiritual energy defense and flew to Ji Changle’s side.
The two sides were once again in a standoff.
Xiao Yun struggled to his feet. “Yuebai, listen to me… run! Even if we join forces, we are no match for this woman.”
“Heh, none of you are leaving today.”
Ji Changle shot out, heading straight for Xiao Yun’s throat. Violent lightning energy was left in her wake.
Among the elements, wind and lightning were the fastest. Su Lingxi couldn’t react in time.
Su Lingxi only heard the sound of a current flashing past, and Xiao Yun beside her had already been grabbed by the throat by Ji Changle and lifted up.
“Little Lingxi is usually very obedient. This escape must have been instigated by you.”
“I was originally going to spare your life since you’re a disciple of the Snowfall Sect. I brought you here to keep Lingxi company.”
“I didn’t expect you to be so ungrateful. Since you’re useless, then I think you can die!”
Ji Changle’s fingers tightened slightly, and a pained expression appeared on Xiao Yun’s face. His feet thrashed in the air. “You… you crazy woman!”
“Stop! If you dare to harm a single hair on his head, I’ll make all your subordinates be buried with him.”
In her desperation, Su Lingxi took out the detonator and threatened, “I’ve already planted many bombs in your den. As long as I press this button, all the treasures and manpower you’ve accumulated will be reduced to ashes.”
Before Ji Changle could respond, the bald man spoke first, “Don’t be rash. Boss, he’s just an insignificant piece of trash. He can’t be compared to our accumulation.”
Ji Changle’s expression did not change. She was clearly not falling for Su Lingxi’s trick.
Not to mention where Su Lingxi, who was in the cave all day, could have gotten bombs, just this strange detonation device was very strange.
Ji Changle’s hand, which was holding Xiao Yun, suddenly loosened. Su Lingxi was delighted, thinking that Ji Changle had compromised.
Who knew that the next second, a sharp pain came from her hand. Su Lingxi cried out in pain and dropped the detonator on the ground.
Ji Changle had, at some point, sent her lightning spiritual energy to Su Lingxi’s hand. Her speed was so fast that no one could see when she had attacked.
“Little Lingxi, you’ve disappointed me greatly by doing this~”
Ji Changle crushed the detonator with her foot, which meant that Su Lingxi’s last straw was also gone.
Was she ultimately unable to escape the fate of being captured by this woman?
Su Lingxi clenched her fists. This feeling of powerlessness appeared again, all because she was not strong enough…
“Cough, cough… I’ll fight you!”
Xiao Yun gasped for air and struggled to his feet. He staggered up, his hands quickly forming seals, and he chanted.
The surrounding air currents began to surge. Xiao Yun was gathering the most powerful offensive spiritual technique he had learned in his life.
“So stubborn!”
Ji Changle didn’t want to waste any more time. Her figure quickly flashed past Su Lingxi, and purple lightning appeared in her palm again. This time, she was determined to take Xiao Yun’s life.
“Come on!”
Xiao Yun’s eyes were scarlet, and he had already disregarded life and death. The long stick in his hand seemed to have sensed its master’s will and began to buzz.
“No!”
Almost at the same moment that Ji Changle got up, Su Lingxi also quickly followed.
The Ice Heart Art: Imperial was almost instantaneous. It was just that this time, she did not use it on herself, but gathered the ice-elemental power on Xiao Yun.
The lightning that Ji Changle sent out easily overwhelmed the energy that Xiao Yun had blasted out. The gap of a major realm could not be bridged no matter what.
The moment Ji Changle touched Xiao Yun, Su Lingxi’s Ice Heart Art: Imperial also began to cover his entire body.
The moment the energies collided, the ice layer on Xiao Yun’s body only lasted for a few seconds before shattering again.
Xiao Yun could not withstand this force at all. His body was like a cannonball, flying backwards and creating a large crater on a nearby mountain.
Then, his body went limp and he fell down.
“Big Brother Xiao!”
Su Lingxi almost shouted this. She rushed towards Xiao Yun like a madman, wanting to check his injuries.
But Ji Changle did not give her this chance. She blocked Su Lingxi with her tyrannical spiritual energy.
“Get out of the way!”
Su Lingxi took out the Illusory Moon Soaring Sky and stabbed at Ji Changle’s throat.
Ji Changle dodged the blow with ease. She sneered, “Little Lingxi, is this all you’ve got?”
With that, she raised her hand and waved, and a stream of spiritual energy surged towards Su Lingxi. Su Lingxi felt as if she were being crushed by a mountain, unable to move.
Power… she longed for more power…
“Boss is mighty! No matter what tricks these two play, they can’t escape the boss’s grasp.”
The bald man and the balding man had become Ji Changle’s cheerleaders.
“Wait a minute, why do I feel the ground moving?” The bald man looked at the balding man, as if wanting to get an answer from him.
The balding man also looked at the bald man. “I feel it too…”
The spatial rift in the sky, which had been silent for more than ten minutes, actually began to expand again, followed by an earthquake.
The ground kept cracking, and the earth kept shaking.
Ji Changle’s body also began to shake, and the spiritual energy in her hand suddenly loosened.
Su Lingxi found an opportunity and immediately broke free from Ji Changle’s control, flying towards Xiao Yun.
At this moment, the bald man let out a strange cry, “Oh no, our treasures are still down there. If they get buried, we’re done for. I have to get them out!”
The bald man was not afraid of death and directly went towards the crumbling cave entrance. The balding man wanted to stop him, but seeing that the bald man was already far away, he could only grit his teeth and follow.
Su Lingxi came to Xiao Yun’s side and helped him up. “Big Brother Xiao… Big Brother Xiao… don’t scare me!”
Xiao Yun was unconscious, and blood was constantly seeping from his face. His injuries were clearly not light. To be more serious, he was on the verge of death.
His breathing was also weakening…
Drip… drip
Su Lingxi’s tears fell on Xiao Yun’s face, reflecting a faint light.
Her eyes were red, and she choked, “Big Brother Xiao… wake up, I still want to hear you brag… Big Brother Xiao…”
Xiao Yun could not answer her…
The earth was still shaking, and Su Lingxi was still immersed in sadness.
A falling rock rolled down from the mountain and headed straight for Su Lingxi. Ji Changle steadied herself and sensed that Su Lingxi was in danger.
She circulated her spiritual energy and shattered the falling rock above Su Lingxi’s head.
Su Lingxi was completely unaware of the danger. She looked at Xiao Yun’s pale face in a daze.
