Chapter 81: Frightened Out Of Ones Wits (2/2)
Long Xiaoyue's heart thumped crazily as she followed Su Yu outside
”Qin Mingyue, Yan Chu, hurry up and escape!” Long Xiaoyue's voice had lost the calm and confidence it once had Now, her voice shook with shock
The two of the It was only a corpse, a puddle of blood and flesh where its head once was and a jade bottle on its back It was obvious that he could not be any more dead So why had the others fled?
With a chill in her heart, Xia Jingyu, held tightly in the arms of Su Yu, couldn't contain her confusion, ”Brother Yu, what happened? Is even his body dangerous?
Su Yu's face was extremely pale and his heart thuerous, but that was not the Slayer King!”
”The real Slayer King is not dead!”
Xia Jingyu's body quivered, her face instantly paled!
They had already used the Fire Soul Pearl—if the real Slayer King was alive, hoould they defeat hiyue paled as they listened
”Senior Long, was that not the Slayer King?” Yan Chu and Qin Mingyue's lips quivered
Horrified, Long Xiaoyue coldly replied, ”Correct, that was not hirade spirit elixirs However, there was only one spirit elixir on the back of this Level Nine Slayer Moreover, it was a noruess be correct, that should be the Level Eight Peak iuard But, unbeknownst to us, he h into Level Nine! Hence, we !”
But… how did he achieve the breakthrough?
When they had entered the core area, they discovered a lot fewer slayers than they expected to find—no one had been sure as to where all the other slayers had gone
Now, the ansas clear! They had all been killed by the Slayer King and his four iuards, and their spirit elixirs had been used to raise the lead bodyguard's cultivation base!
The real Slayer King yue paled; the real Slayer King was still alive!
A profound shock was felt throughout the group! Without any prodding, everyone bolted—fueled by terror and adrenaline
Swish—
Rays of light and shadows blurred together as they rushed through the gloohts like their heels were on fire They only stopped once, briefly, when their stamina was fully burned out The escape tested their will to survive and forced they they could into their speed—only Xia Jingyu, carried by Su Yu, roup e in tatters and dark circles under their eyes
Even Long Xiaoyue's leather clothing was torn insnohite skin
The only good thing was that, although tiring, the three days of continuous escape proved to be worth it
Panting, Yan Chu and Qing Mingyue stopped to catch their breaths
”Senior Long, we are a long ways away from the inner core area and will soon reach the outer periphery It's really unlikely the Slayer King has followed us this far”
Long Xiaoyue thought for aher head She looked at Su Yu and Xia Jingyu, ” What do you two think, should we rest here for a short while to recover a bit?” Three days of continuous escape had taken a lot out of her
Su Yu shook his head lightly He had no intention of slowing down ”The day you let your guard down is the day you die As long as I'm in the Evil Forest, I will not stop!”
Swish—
Su Yu disappeared fro in their ree with Su Yu As long as they remained in the Evil Forest, they were in no position to relax
Yan Chu coldly scoffed, ”Senior Long, why bother with people like hi cautious To be blunt, he is yue also did not like Su Yu, as he had takenEven with his Level Nine Lower Tier ability, it will be difficult for him to catch up to us Obviously, Su Yu lacks the ability to correctly assess situations Leave hireed
Seeing their cal Xiaoyue could tell they were adah she clearly understood Su Yu was the wisest person, she could not bear to leave the two of them behind As such, she was left with no choice but to rest
The three of thee, ancient tree
All of a sudden, Long Xiaoyue noticed a collection of shi+fting shadows a the trees Reflexively, she raised her head and looked toward them
What she saw sent terror down her spine!
Atop the tree branches stood a ray colored robe, the ht eyes; he was surrounded by a kingly aura
With his hands clasped behind his back, theon a mouse, he watched the three of them from above
The man was so silent, it was as if he was one with nature If Long Xiaoyue had not reflexively glanced up, they h Long Xiaoyue's throat was blocked by soreat difficulty, ”It's the Slayer King! Level Nine Upper Tier!”
It was indeed highly i to catch up with them However, for a Level Nine Upper Tier, he could catch up to theyue raised their heads and were instantly terrified
Not only had the Slayer King chased after the above their heads for the whole ti up with them the whole time—hidden in the shadows!
Yan Chu's whole body stiffened—he was too terrified tosolely on his instincts, Qin Mingyue forcefully suppressed his fear and swiftly fled for his life!
”No!” Long Xiaoyue screamed in shock, but it was already too late to stop hi er, the Slayer King pointed at Qin Mingyue
A few hundred feet away, Qin Mingyue's body exploded, turning into a rain of blood!
Long Xiaoyue shuddered deeply, iretful!
Had she known earlier, she should have followed Su Yu and escaped Sheif she had escaped when she'd had the chance
Retracting his finger, the Slayer King's eye looked at the the five of you, only the kid in purple intrigued me—and, even then, just barely Followflew in the direction Su Yu had gone
Long Xiaoyue lightly bit her lips but dared not defy his order She followed behind the Slayer King
The Slayer King had still paid slight attention to her—if she had tried to escape, he would have killed her in an instant!
