Many mountains were adjacent to the Desolate Forest, which could also be said to be an extension of the Desolate Forest. However, they were all ordinary mountain ranges without any danger or magical beasts. All they could see were some wild beasts.
Some civilians who could not survive in the city could only migrate to the mountains to rely on their own food and the wild beasts in the mountains to feed them. After generations, they became sparse villages, so there were many buildings left behind by people who had left for various reasons.
"Young miss, you should leave quickly! If we don't leave now, it'll be too late." An anxious voice came from an abandoned thatched hut. There was a moment of silence. Clearly, the young lady did not respond.
Roar! A long howl came from afar.
"Young miss, let's go! I beg you. I'll stay behind to stall for time. I believe that the young miss is not unlucky and will definitely be able to avoid them.”The anxious voice was even more urgent and even carried a pleading tone.
"Uncle Hai and Uncle Feng accompanied me on this trip to the eastern domain. Uncle Feng left first, and now Uncle Hai is leaving me.”Crystal tears rolled down from the corners of Wu Lan's eyes.
Inside the thatched cottage were Wu Lan and the guardian of the Wu family. The two of them were in a bad situation. Wu Lan's originally sparkling and lustrous skin was stained with a layer of gray, and her mental state was also very poor. Opposite her, Protector Hai's already tanned face was now even darker. He was completely relying on pure Origin Power to support himself. Even if no one was chasing after him, he probably wouldn't be able to live for long.
"Young miss, let's go! Guardian Feng is like a brother to me, so I should go down and accompany him.”Protector Hai said tiredly without any reprimand. If Wu Lan really didn't leave, he would be deeply disappointed. He hoped that his sacrifice would give Wu Lan a chance to live.
"Uncle Hai, I'll listen to you. I must persevere until that person arrives and see him for the last time before coming down to accompany the two uncles.”Wu Lan rushed out of the door in tears. Her tearful eyes were filled with determination. Wu Lan herself did not understand why the last person she wanted to see was him and not someone else.
Could it be that he was the only man who had barged into her life, so she could not forget him? No matter why this happened, it was no longer important. He was the only man who would get close to her in this life, so she would just treat it as knowing him for the rest of her life.
As soon as Wu Lan left, a fierce fight broke out behind her. The deafening sound of collision spread far away.
"Wuhai, you'd better end your own life. I can't bear to see you in such a miserable state.”The mocking voice spread in the air. At this moment, Protector Hai's hair was disheveled, blood was flowing from the corner of his mouth, his face was black, and his body was covered in wounds like a malicious ghost. No wonder he was laughed at.
"You shameless dog, cough cough, your Grandpa Hai will drag you down with me even if I die.”Wu Hai shouted angrily at the masked man.
" Just you? Hahaha, you're so funny…" The masked man was like a duck with its neck stuck. His laughter suddenly stopped, and his face was filled with gloominess and anger.
"Self-destruct!"
Wu Hai's eyes were filled with madness. Fire-red essence force erupted from his body, causing the surrounding fire-type spiritual energy to burn up one after another. The thatched cottage behind him was instantly reduced to ashes. This wasn't the end. Wu Hai's entire body suddenly twisted. His face was filled with pain. The flesh and blood on his body exploded and turned into violent fire elemental energy that burned in the air.
Bang!
In the next moment, Wu Hai let out a miserable cry and exploded, merging into the violent fire elemental energy in the sky. The fiercely burning fire elemental energy was like a volcanic eruption that blotted out the sky and covered the earth as it surged towards the masked man. Ocean Dance's self-destruction seemed to be slow, but it was completed in a very short moment. Although Masked Man reacted in time, he did not have time to dodge it completely.
"Blood Flame Shield."
The masked man tapped on a few meridians in his chest, and a cold, blood-red essence force instantly flowed through his body. His hands moved, and the blood-red essence force gathered between his hands. A huge blood-red shield slowly formed in front of him, and a cold aura spread out. The originally hot sky alternated between hot and cold, and smoke swirled around. In an instant, it seemed dangerous.
Boom!
The violent fire elemental energy collided with the blood shield with astonishing power. White flames danced wildly in the sky, and the ground cracked and collapsed. The masked man was forced back by the powerful elemental energy fluctuation, and the blood shield in his hand became thinner and thinner under the corrosion of the fire elemental energy. If he was at the center of the explosion, the power would be at least twice as strong.
Puff!
The ferocious-masked man who stopped in his tracks could no longer hold back his urge to spit out a mouthful of blood. The black cloth covering his face was wet, and his eyes were filled with horror. He cursed angrily,"That damned Wu Hai, he can't even die peacefully. He deserves to be smashed into pieces.”Then, he looked up and saw Wu Lan disappearing into the distance. He shook his head and could only adjust his breathing to recover from his internal injuries before chasing after her. He believed that she would not be able to escape from his grasp, so he was not in a hurry.
Hearing the loud explosion in the distance, Wu Lan knew what had happened. She muttered with tears in her eyes," Uncle Hai…" Then he muttered,""Lin Yu, where are you? I miss you. Can we see each other for the last time?”
At this moment, Lin Yu was rushing towards the explosion site. The powerful elemental energy fluctuation was naturally noticed by the Xuantian Sect disciples who were searching nearby. When he heard the report, Lin Yu rushed over anxiously and muttered from time to time,""Wu Lan, you must hold on!"
It was only then that Lin Yu realized that Wu Lan had occupied an important place in his heart. The thought of Wu Lan leaving him made his heart ache and his anger burned with the desire to destroy everything.?Perhaps people only knew what they cared about the most when they were in a life-and-death situation. Lin Yu and Wu Lan were the same. Perhaps there was no such thing as pure friendship between a man and a woman. That was just the beginning of love.
By the time Lin Yu arrived at the place where the fight had taken place, there was no one there. There were no corpses either. There were only ravines and broken earth.?" Wu Lan, Wu Lan..." Lin Yu shouted anxiously, afraid that he was too late.
The only response he got was the sound of the wind. It was probably a good thing that they did not notice anything. It meant that they were fine and still alive. Lin Yu could only comfort himself with this.?With Wu Lan's help, he continued to search in the east direction. If nothing happened, he should be able to meet them.
Clang! Clang!
The sound of weapons clashing against each other rang in his ears and Lin Yu was delighted," Wu Lan, hold on, you must hold on. I'm almost there. I'm flying towards the location of the battle.
Wu Lan was already in despair. It was not fear of death but unwillingness. In the end, she still could not see him and could not say a word to him."You've already stolen Wu Lan's heart.”
"Miss Wu, it's a pity that you're so beautiful. If you knew what was going on back then, you wouldn't have ended up like this today. With your looks, you might even be favored by your superiors.”Masked Man shook his head regretfully.
"You want to rule the continent with your disguises? Dream on! You won't succeed." Wu Lan mocked disdainfully. She stretched out her hand to wipe away the redness at the corner of her mouth, and the greyness on her skin became even thicker. The more she used her essence energy, the faster the poison acted up.
"Since that's the case, don't blame me for being ruthless in order to prevent any more trouble.”The masked man gave up on persuading Wu Lan and spoke in a vicious tone. He was ready to end the endless pursuit. After all, running around for a long time was not a pleasant thing.
"Blood Flame Saber."
Blood-red essence force circulated around the masked man's body, and a huge blood-red saber slowly condensed between his hands. A cold aura was emitted from the blood-red saber, and the space seemed to distort. The plants that were affected by the saber aura gradually withered, and the wind gently blew them into powder and dissipated.
It was not the first time Wu Lan had seen such a strange essence force. Uncle Feng had died in this move. Even if she was at her peak, she might not have been able to withstand this attack, let alone now. Fiery red essence force condensed in his hand. Unfortunately, after a few breaths of effort, his essence force was unable to continue performing any martial techniques. He could only watch as the bloody saber approached him and feel his body gradually turn cold.
Wu Lan thought to herself, Lin Yu, don't.”
