Chapter 326: Giving up one’s life to save another

Chu Tian and Meng Qingwu had been floating three-four hundred meters up in the sky before they began to fall down.Wind whistled in their ears and the ground was quickly approaching them. If they fell to the ground from this altitude, even if their bodies were made of iron, their inner visceras would be shattered.

The more dangerous thing was that those vulture riding War Hounds did not plan to let them off.In the second the two of them fell, those vultures instantly surrounded them, trying to tear them apart with their claws.

“Scram!”

Chu Tian used his sword qi to cut the stomach of a vulture, causing large amounts of blood and guts to bloom.Chu Tian suddenly heard Meng Qingwu’s shocked cry and when he turned his head, he saw that Meng Qingwu had already been grabbed by a vulture’s claws.There was a soldier stabbing his spear at Meng Qingwu, but it was a good thing this normal vulture rider’s cultivation was not high and he couldn’t break through Meng Qingwu’s starlight cover with a single hit.

Meng Qingwu grabbed the spear and directly threw the soldier away.

Chu Tian had no other choice as he let go of the Netherworld Sword and grabbed the back of one hand with the other hand.The treasure sword turned into a stream of light as it pierced through a vulture, taking care of it with a single beast’s cry.

The Netherworld Sword released energy as blue and white flame crows flew into the sky.The vultures and their riders were all burned by this terrifying Abyss Netherworld Flame.These flames transformed into a human figure, which had the appearance of a devil in the end.

“Netherworld!Kill them!”

“Understood, master!”

The demon Netherworld summoned some spiritual form creatures which didn’t have wings, but could still fly, shooting out like meteors.They slammed into the vultures and six-seven flames bloomed in the sky.

Chu Tian held the spiritless Netherworld Sword and Meng Qingwu as they fell together.

Putong!

Putong!

A mirror like lake on the prairies suddenly created two large splash sounds.

The two of them almost sunk to the bottom of the water.A normal person would have had their internal visceras shattered by that tremendous force and died already.Chu Tian came into contact with a rock at the bottom of the lake, shattering the rock to pieces, but nothing happened to Chu Tian.He felt a wave of dizziness enter his head, but he quickly came to his sense and kicked off with his feet, quickly floating to the surface.

He saw Meng Qingwu struggling in front of him, the young miss did not seem to know how to swim and there was an arrow in her thigh.She suddenly became unable to move. Chu Tian quickly rushed over and grabbed Meng Qingwu’s waist with both hands, bringing both of them to the surface.

“Hu——”

Meng Qingwu and Chu Tian both gasped for air.Meng Qingwu quickly asked in a concerned voice, “Are you alright?”

“My life is hard to take, of course I’m fine.How are you, young miss? Are your injuries severe!”Chu Tian revealed his own concern, using a pair of hands to go over the young miss’ plentiful body.Finally he touched her thigh and used his spirit energy to break the arrow, “We must go ashore to clean the wound.”

Meng Qingwu was taken advantage of by Chu Tian, but she could not tell him off at this time.

The little fox swam over in the water holding the Netherworld Sword in its mouth as it gave it to Chu Tian.

Chu Tian grabbed the sword before thanking the little fox.

The Netherworld devil was still fighting the War Hounds in the sky.Although it couldn’t finish the fight, it could stop the vulture riding soldiers from attacking the two of them, so it was the best chance for them to head ashore.

Chu Tian hugged the young miss’ plentiful body while holding his Netherworld Sword in one hand.He used the spirit energy in his body and suddenly kicked the water, like an engine had been ignited, he quickly flew towards the shore.

The little fox suddenly gave a warning again.

Large amounts of dead wood appeared on the surface of the little lake, but looking carefully, they were shocked to find that it wasn’t dead wood, but rather it was an alligator that was over five meters long.The small part of its body surfacing looked like several dozen pieces of dead wood.

“Damn, it’s a Blue Marked Alligator!”

This alligator was a high class water attributed level one demon beast, being able to use water energy.It had strength equal to the peak of the Body Refinement Realm.

Chu Tian normally would not even put it in his eyes, but now Chu Tian was not only severely weakened, his spirit energy was almost dried up, not having any strength to fight at all.There were many alligators here, with over a hundred of them, which was enough to pose a threat to their lives at this moment!

Meng Qingwu asked in a panic, “What do we do?”

“What else can we do, run!”

Their falling into the water constituted as invading these powerful demon beasts’ territory and it looks like these fellows had a bad temper.They were currently rushing at the two of them, with a blue rune appearing on each of the alligator’s heads, instilling a strength into them that came from the lake water around them.

The entire surface of the lake seemed like it was boiling.

Chu Tian could feel a strong water attributed energy slithering forward like a python.The alligators wanted to trap him first, making him lose all abilities to resist before tearing him to pieces.

Chu Tian’s sword swept out with a fierce sword qi that instantly destroyed all the binding energy around him, as well as killing two alligators blocking him.This move just enraged the demon beasts which was no help to the situation they were currently in.

“This is bad, there are too many demon beasts in the water!”Meng Qingwu anxiously called out, “You can’t escape if you keep bringing me along.Don’t mind me, just leave!”

Meng Qingwu was in the peak 5th Awakened Soul Layer, this was not considered weak, at least this would be at the level of a medium level officer in the Southern Summer army.However, Meng Qingwu’s source spirit was not suited for fighting, so most cultivation techniques and martial arts weren’t suited for her to learn. In other words, other than the defensive «Starlight Immortal Body», she did not have any other skills.
