Chapter 75 - Escape, Escape

The two circled the area, searching.

The sky gradually turned dark.

The moonlight was obscured by thick clouds, and only a few stars glimmered in the sky.

They held torches.

Ning Siqi sighed, "Looks like they really haven't escaped yet."

After searching for nearly two hours, they still did not hear a single sound. Looking at the situation, if they were still alive, they might already be trapped within the mountain.

"Let's wait for another night. Tomorrow morning, we will set out on our journey." Xiao Qianhan said to Ning Siqi as she touched the sleeping meatball and looked in front of him, where she was unable to detect the dangers that lay ahead.

Ning Siqi agreed, "Alright, we'll stay here for the night. Otherwise, we don't know what is going on ahead of us. Furthermore, if we wait for another night, we might be able to see our men leave the Falling Phoenix Mountain. "

Xiao Qianhan nodded, "Mn."

Roughly a quarter of an hour later, the two had just sat down to eat something before lying down to rest. In the end, they suddenly saw a light not too far away from them.

Ning Siqi pointed excitedly to the flames, "Qianhan, someone is over there!"

"Let's go and take a look. Don't alert them first. We'll only show ourselves after we've determined that they're our people." Originally, he sat down and placed the meatball on his leg. When she was about to get up, he found that the meatball was no longer on his leg, and had climbed onto her shoulder at some point, but strangely did not fall off her shoulder, as if his entire body was glued to her shoulder. It was as if he was not moving at all, and was still sleeping very steadily.

Although he was curious, he didn't have time to figure it out.

The two of them moved silently in the night.

It took them a while to get there.

The two of them hid behind the bushes and observed the scene in front of them.

It was unexpected.

There were indeed people, and a total of about twenty people, of whom five or six were Kingdom of Zi Yue warriors, including Murong Ce.

All of them looked to be in a sorry state, with more or less some injuries on their bodies. Basically, all of them were sitting cross-legged around a bonfire, recovering from their injuries. The bright red light of the fire shone on Murong Ce's face, and you could clearly see the wound on his face; half of his face was already swollen.

The other five people were similarly wearing the same set of clothes or had colors on their faces.

As for the other strangers, their situation was a bit better than theirs. However, their hair was a bit messy and some of them were also injured.

No one spoke, only the crackling of burning wood.

Ning Siqi asked in a low voice: "Are we going over now? "Who are the others?"

Xiao Qianhan carefully looked at the situation of the people, he was not in a hurry to make a decision, "The situation is unknown, we will wait for a while to make a decision."

"Alright. It seems like we only have the six of us and the two of us. " Of the group of 30, only 8 of them were still alive. Was this a situation that no one would have thought of before departing? Ning Siqi secretly rejoiced. She had chosen to form an alliance with Xiao Qianhan, which was why she was able to calmly flee the entire way, and survive safely. Fortunately, she had hugged Xiao Qianhan when she was being held by Xiao Yuluo and the others, otherwise she would have been buried in the Falling Phoenix Mountain together with them.

"I'm guessing that those people were from the East Ling. They passed through the same place as us, probably because our people ran into them while escaping, and then all of them fought against the Mohican monkey together. Only after suffering heavy casualties could they escape. However, there is also another possibility. Our people have been captured by them. Xiao Qianhan looked at the group of people in front of him, and analyzed calmly.

Roughly an hour later.

Those people slowly opened their eyes. After recuperating, their bodies regained their spiritual energy so they had the strength to face the current situation.

"I didn't expect the Falling Phoenix Mountain to be so terrifying. It's only a spirit beast and it's already so fierce. Half of our people were killed by the Mohican monkey." A man spoke first, his tone still containing traces of shock.

"Our injuries are serious, People of the Kingdom of Zi Yue's injuries are worse! It is said that most of the Kingdom of Zi Yue's warriors have low levels of cultivation. The other person said without any trace of politeness.

"Shut up! Don't speak such nonsense. If we didn't join hands with them, we would have suffered even more casualties. " A young lady shouted. Her tone was imposing, and the moment she opened her mouth, the people who had looked down on the Kingdom of Zi Yue Warriors earlier immediately did not dare to say another word.

The first person they encountered were the people of the East Ling. After a fierce battle, when they thought that even more people were going to die, the Mohican monkey suddenly left after hearing some kind of noise.

Only when the two nations fought the Mohican monkey together could a portion of them escape.

"If it weren't for our help and the dispersing of the Mohican monkey's attention, would you all have been able to escape so quickly? They say our cultivation is low, but I don't think your cultivation is high either. It's just an early stage palmProfound Realm warrior, what's there to be arrogant about? One of the male warriors from Kingdom of Zi Yue stood up and pointed at the man who was speaking so arrogantly earlier and retorted angrily.

That person did not expect the People of the Kingdom of Zi Yue to retort and stood up. He sneered, and then said: "If I'm not wrong, the person with the highest cultivation among you living should be the person with the highest Middle stage of the Palm Profound Realm, right? Our East Ling's Crown Prince and Sixth Princess are already at the great perfection stage! "

"You!" The martial artist was rendered speechless by this. Kingdom of Zi Yue was a small country out of the seven nations, and couldn't be compared to other large countries in every aspect. But East Ling wasn't a big country either, so she was also so wild, completely disregarding humans!

If they met people from other countries along the way, they would have been mentally prepared to be looked down upon. However, they hadn't thought that they would be looked down upon by someone from their own country!

"Zhang Jian, there is no need to argue with them. It's the same, fifty steps and a hundred steps, is it interesting? " Murong Ce opened his eyes. His injuries were relatively serious, and if he hadn't dodged it in time, he would have long since died under the palm of the Mohican monkey. He expressionlessly looked at the few people from East Ling. Their overall strength had indeed surpassed Kingdom of Zi Yue's.

But...

He could not tolerate anyone insulting him like this!

He knew that Murong Ce was the seven kings of the Kingdom of Zi Yue, and would become the emperor of the Kingdom of Zi Yue in the future. Although he was from the Eastern Tomb Country, he was not someone that he could offend as a little warrior.

"No, we are not. We have the ability to take your lives now. "

A man stood up and looked at Murong Ce with a cold and handsome face.
