Coming For Her
Coming For Her
"What's wrong?" Mu Kai En asked, thinking that Sima You Yue was looking at her.
"We've got trouble." Sima You Yue said.
"Trouble?"
"Are the people around you good?" Sima You Yue asked.
"How much trouble is this 'trouble'?"
"Divine Beast." Sima You Yue said, "The underworld beast that is approaching is of the divine rank."
Sima You Yue sighed in her heart, in the past, with her own strength, there was no need to fear such a puny beast. Now when encountering Divine Beasts, she could only rely on others.
Mi'er could deal with it, but she was used to keeping some trump cards for herself. Premature exposure would put her life on the chopping board for others, to pretend to be a pig to later prey on a tiger (to pretend to be weak and fragile to take advantage of someone) was still the way to go. Therefore, if it is not until the last moment and her life is endangered, she will not risk exposing Mi'er.
"Divine Beast? How can there be any Divine Beasts here? There are only a few Divine Beasts living in the Atavistic Orchid Mountain, and they all live in the inner region! We are currently at the periphery of the middle region, why would any of those Divine Beasts come here?" Mu Kai En smiled and turned his head and wanted to say that there was nothing at all, but with one glance, his whole person was stunned silly in place.
"I'll be damned, it's really a Divine Beast!"
Although Xiao Ruo Bai and the rest were surprised, they did not panic.
"Umm, shall we run away?" Sima You Yue asked.
"No, it's only one Divine Beast." Gongzi Yuan said lightly.
"Each of us has an Underworld Saint Master following us so it's not impossible to deal with one Divine Beast." Mu Kai En said.
"Isn't it agreed before that you can't rely on external forces?"
"We are talking about the competition that we can only rely on ourselves. However, this is an exceptional case and it won't be included in the competition." Gongzi Yuan explained, "Although we like to play, we still know the importance of our own lives."
Sima You Yue nodded, since they said that, she didn't worry anymore.
None of the three of them noticed how Sima You Yue, a person with no spiritual power, noticed the danger before them. In front of food, their IQ had fallen drastically.
When the Divine Beast approached, Sima You Yue was thinking if she should act a little more nervous, when an elderly man appeared before it could approach any further.
"Whose Master is this?"
"My clan's." Gongzi Yuan said, "Come on, let's continue eating."
Sima You Yue looked at the battle over there. The protectors of the Gongzi Clan were indeed not bad and the battle with the beast was concluding. Just as she started to continue eating, she didn't eat a few mouthfuls and stopped again.
"There's more..."
This time it was very fast. Before everyone could react, a big black bird flew over from a distance and swooped down. Another middle-aged man immediately appeared before them and slashed it.
"How could there be two..."
Xiao Ruo Bai hadn't finished speaking when Sima You Yue looked in another direction and said: "There is another."
Before the Divine Beast approached, it was stopped by the protectors waiting there.
"The Divine Beast in the east is very powerful, and my protectors can't resist it." Mu Kai En said.
"Should we help?" Gongzi Yuan and the others were no longer in the mood to eat at the moment. Why did so many Divine Beasts suddenly appear!
The strength of the protectors of Mu Kai En's house was a small level lower than that of the underworld beast, and was thrown off by the beast's wing.
"Elder Guang!" Mu Kai En ran over when he saw that his protector was injured, but was almost injured by the big black bird instead. Fortunately, at the last moment, Sima You Yue's protector appeared, fighting with the big black bird.
"Elder Guang, how are you?" Mu Kai En helped Elder Guang and fed him a pill.
"Little Master, this beast is too powerful, we are not their opponents at all. Let's leave quickly." Elder Guang grabbed Mu Kai En's hand and said.
Mu Kai En looked back at the battle over there. Except for Murong's side who were evenly matched, the other two were at a disadvantage, and it felt like they would not last long.
"Little Yuan, Ruobai, Xi'er, let's escape quickly!" He shouted to the three of them.
Xiao Ruo Bai and the others understood the current situation, and escape was the best choice.
"But, they..." Xiao Ruo Bai didn't want to abandon her protector.
"Ruo Bai, if we don't leave now, we will be done for too!" Mu Kai En shouted.
"Little Miss, please go quickly! Once you leave, we can escape as well." The Xiao family protector shouted.
"Your protectors are right. We are here, and they can't leave even if they have a chance." Gongzi Yuan said, "Let's go!"
So, the five people fled in the direction they came. Sima You Yue had no spiritual power, so she called out Blacky, climbed onto its back and asked it to escape quickly.
When Blacky saw the three Divine Beasts, it opened it's mouth and whimpered twice. Sima You Yue thought it wanted to play, patted its back, and said, "Stop playing, go!"
Blacky reluctantly ran away.
At first, they thought that once they left, those protectors would need to engage in a fierce battle to escape, but no one expected that those Divine Beasts would no longer engage in battle and they wanted to find a chance to chase after them instead.
The purpose of these Divine Beasts was their Little Masters and Little Miss? Can't let them chase!
So, this scene turned into a group of people fleeing and a few Divine Beasts chasing from behind. The protectors who originally wanted to escape tried to block their way.
Sima You Yue and the others ran a long way, but the beasts never gave up. They changed paths many times on the way, but they were still chased by the beasts.
"How does it seem that their target seems to be Young Miss Xi'er?" After all, Elder Guang had a lot of experience. After engaging with the Divine Beasts several times, he found that the eyes of those Divine Beasts were tightly locked onto Sima You Yue.
When he said this, everyone stopped and looked at Sima You Yue together.
"Elder Guang, did you make a mistake?" Gongzi Yuan said solemnly.
If he said that, didn't he mean that all of this was caused by Sima You Yue?
"Elder Guang, Little Yuan is right, are you making a mistake?" Mu Kai En asked.
"Young Master, I won't be mistaken." Elder Guang said, "I have observed several times, and the eyes of those Divine Beasts are fixed on Young Miss Xi'er. If we are together again, everyone will be dragged down. Why don't we escape separately?"
There were a few seconds of embarrassment in the atmosphere. In these few seconds, there were countless turbulent waves stirring in their hearts.
"Elder Guang is right, we are easily attacked by the beasts when we are together, and it is safer to separate." Sima You Yue smiled.
"No!" Gongzi Yuan immediately objected, "You have no spiritual power. If they catch up with you, you will definitely die. I can't leave you behind."
"That's right." Xiao Ruo Bai also agreed, "You came out with us, if something happens, we won't be able to explain to your father."
"Elder Guang, since everyone is..."
"Young Master!" Elder Guang interrupted Mu Kai En, "Don't forget, you are responsible for the family! If you encounter an accident here, how can you make up for your family's care and hope for all these years?!"
