Free Web NovelChapter 644: 727 Saving the Two Sisters Again
The next moment, ice shattered, and the bodies of the two demon beasts were also broken into countless pieces.
"Xiaoyue, let’s go." Nangong Xue landed on the ground, retracted the Twin Swords, supported Nangong Yue, and walked forward.
There is a flaw in the blood connection.
That is, after sharing, the contributing party will be in a weakened state for a short time, unable to exert their original strength.
...
However, it seemed that the sisters were just unlucky or something, as a vine as thick as an arm quietly approached from behind them. Before they could react, it grabbed their ankles and hung them high off the ground.
"Ah..." The sudden situation made the sisters scream.
"Sister, it’s the Bloodthirsty Demon Vine!" Nangong Yue looked at the green plants in the depression nearby and exclaimed in horror.
Nangong Xue’s expression changed.
The Bloodthirsty Demon Vine, also known as the jungle killer, feeds on the blood of humans and demon beasts, and it’s impervious to blades and spears. Once it wraps around you, it means you’re not far from death.
Nangong Xue took out the Twin Swords, intending to use True Qi to cut it off.
Although it is impervious to blades and spears, there is a limit. As long as the strength is enough, nothing is truly impervious.
However, she was hanging upside down, blood rushing to her head, making it impossible to exert force.
Suddenly, there was a pain in her foot.
The Bloodthirsty Demon Vine coiled around her ankle sprouted a row of sharp spikes that pierced into her body, beginning to suck her blood.
The Twin Swords in her hands also fell as a result.
"Sister." Nangong Yue called out. In the next second, her fate was the same as Nangong Xue’s.
"Boom..."
At this moment, a flame swept over, engulfing the entire depression area. In an instant, the depression area turned into a sea of fire.
The Bloodthirsty Demon Vine was hurt, instantly releasing the two women, causing them to fall downwards.
Just when they thought they would crash to the ground heavily, a familiar scene occurred.
The sisters were once again caught in Chen Mo’s embrace.
"Are you guys okay? Why did you come here?"
Picking up the Twin Swords from the ground, Chen Mo didn’t stop for a moment, holding the two women and flying toward Xiaojiu’s location.
Nangong Yue glanced at Nangong Xue.
It was Nangong Xue who said Chen Mo abandoned them, which is why they left.
Now that Chen Mo appeared and saved them, it clearly wasn’t the case.
"Um..." Nangong Yue was about to explain a thing or two when.
Nangong Xue said, "Did you find your wife?"
Chen Mo nodded, "She was injured."
"Then why aren’t you taking care of her and... came over to find... find us..." Nangong Yue suddenly said.
Chen Mo certainly wouldn’t say he came specifically to seek their help, that would be too direct, so he said, "I couldn’t just leave you there."
"Why?" Nangong Xue asked.
"Why what?"
"Why are you so good to us, saving us time and again?"
Chen Mo was taken aback, then said, "Aren’t we friends?"
"Just friends?" Nangong Yue blurted out, and after saying it, her face turned red.
"Hm?"
"N-nothing."
...
In the depths of the forest, between two massive boulders, a unique angle was formed, capable of hiding three or four people inside.
Xiaojiu, Jiang Ruoqing, and Zhao Qianyi were there.
With the help of the Spirit Seal, Chen Mo found the place in no time.
Chen Mo set the two women down in advance.
As she left his embrace, Nangong Yue was somewhat reluctant.
...
"Qianyi, how are you feeling now?" When Chen Mo entered, Qianyi’s face was pale. Ruoqing had told him that Qianyi suffered severe internal injuries and couldn’t mobilize her True Qi.
Her internal injuries were all caused by Long Jie.
Zhao Qianyi didn’t want to appear weak in front of Chen Mo, trying to support herself to sit up, but Chen Mo stopped her.
Zhao Qianyi said, "I’m fine, just minor injuries."
"You’re speaking so weakly, and you call that minor injuries, don’t push yourself. I’ve avenged you." Chen Mo pinched Zhao Qianyi’s nose and then turned his head, "Miss Nangong Xue, do you have medicine for internal injuries?"
"Yes." Without hesitation, Nangong Xue took out all the healing medicine from her Qiankun Ring and selected a bottle for Chen Mo, "This is the Solid Essence Pill for healing internal injuries."
Chen Mo knew about Solid Essence Pill.
It was mentioned in a booklet given by Chi Xuzi.
Like the Divine Techniques, elixirs are classified into four grades in Primordial Heaven: Heaven, Earth, Profound, and Yellow.
And the Solid Essence Pill is the most basic elixir, classified as Yellow Tier Intermediate, effective for restoring injuries and regulating Inner Breath.
"I heard him say his brother is Long Xiaoyao, a Direct Disciple of the Shenxiao Sect. You didn’t do anything to him, did you?" Although Chen Mo’s words "I avenged you" made Zhao Qianyi happy, she was also worried about provoking Long Jie’s mentioned brother.
After all, they were in a foreign place, and it was uncertain whether they could rely on Fujin. Offending a big figure now would make things difficult in the future.
"I killed him." Chen Mo said calmly.
As soon as these words came out, everyone except Xiaojiu was shocked.
Especially Nangong Xue and Nangong Yue.
As people from the Central Province of Beiming Domain and followers of Shenxiao Sect, they naturally had heard of Long Xiaoyao.
Under two hundred years old, he broke through to the Nascent Soul Realm, a prodigy, and a Core Disciple of the Daoist Alliance with unlimited prospects, beloved by elders.
Moreover, Long Xiaoyao is a fanatic protector of his brother.
Now Chen Mo had killed his brother.
This was a mortal enmity...
Nangong Xue frowned, considering whether to distance herself from Chen Mo.
She wasn’t worried about herself but feared implicating the Nangong clan.
But she quickly shook her head. Chen Mo had saved their lives multiple times, and even if they didn’t face it together, she couldn’t be the kind of person who would abandon them.
Besides, the sisters had been saved multiple times by Chen Mo in the Profound Spirit Mirror, and it’s likely that outsiders had noticed. Such a relationship wasn’t easy to distance from.
"Harming my woman, even if he’s the king of heaven, I’ll take a bite out of him," Chen Mo said fiercely.
All the women were shocked; as women, who wouldn’t want a husband to protect them like this?
"Then you must join the Shenxiao Sect. As long as you become a disciple of the Shenxiao Sect, even a Direct Disciple wouldn’t dare to openly harm you in the sect." Nangong Xue said, her eyes flashing, this was the first time she spoke so much in front of outsiders.
Chen Mo was slightly stunned.
Zhao Qianyi felt a warm feeling in her heart. She could see the bigger picture and knew Chen Mo and the others were delayed because of her, and said, "You... don’t worry about me, go reach the summit quickly. I’ll crush the Jade Scroll to leave, so you don’t have to worry about my safety."
"Silly girl, we’ll reach the summit together. What reason is there to abandon you?" Chen Mo lowered his head and kissed Zhao Qianyi’s forehead.
Nangong Yue watched with envy.
"But...it might hold you back," Zhao Qianyi said.
"Fool. Between you and me, there’s no such thing as holding back."
