Chapter 471: Rescue

Translator: Thyaeria  Editor: Thyaeria

Mu Chen and his team brushed through the Dark Origin Forest. They were already approaching the depths of the forest. Along the way, they had suffered the attacks of dozens of Demonic Trees. However, though it was hard to guard against the attacks of those Demonic Trees, the instant they had preparations against it, it was no longer frightening. As for the fearsome poison mist, it became the least threatening of all, with Mu Chen’s existence.

Therefore, while they were hastening the journey, it appeared easy for them.

“Looks like we’re going to break through this forest.” As figures brushed through, Luo Li suddenly raised her eyes and looked up ahead. In the depths of the darkness, there seemed to be faint beams of sunlight.

Xu Huang and the rest instantly felt relieved. Danger lurked in this forest and the pressure made them unable to breathe. They were constantly afraid that the instant they loosened up, there would be a poisonous spike that would sneak up on them.

Mu Chen smacked his lips in regret. Along their way, he had sucked up dozens of poisonous mist. The poison in his fingers was more rampant compared to before. Naturally, their main objective right now was to look for the ruins to enhance the strength of his entire team. Although these side door methods could briefly enhance his strength, he couldn’t genuinely rely on it. Thus, even though Mu Chen felt a little pity, he did not continue to remain specifically to suck the poisonous mist.

“Hmm?”

Just when Mu Chen felt pity, his expression abruptly changed. He shifted his gaze towards the depths of the forest, towards his right as he felt powerful Spiritual Energy ripples in that direction. From the looks of it, it should be another team that had run into trouble.

Luo Li also discovered that commotion and shifted her glance towards Mu Chen.

“Forget it, let’s not bother ourselves with it.” Mu Chen shook his head after a brief consideration. In the Great Spiritual Academy Tournament, a majority of the teams were their competitors. Therefore, they did not have the leisure to help others.

Luo Li and the rest nodded their heads in agreement.

Dong!

However, just when Mu Chen was about to lead his team to leave, another set of powerful ripples of Spiritual Energy exploded. This Spiritual Energy left Mu Chen startled, “Xia Hou of the Saint Spiritual Academy? They are laying their hands on the other teams?”

“The ripples of Spiritual Energy earlier on were pretty powerful. It could be Tang Mei’er of the Myriad Phoenix Spiritual Academy or Zhou Yuan of the Martial Spiritual Academy…” Luo Li considered and exclaimed, “Xia Hou actually chose them as his prey?”

Mu Chen frowned his brows. Although Tang Mei’er and Zhou Yuan’s team were slightly weaker in comparable to Xia Hou, they weren’t such easy targets. If a full-blown battle was to breakout amongst them, even if Xia Hou and his team could digest it, they would also pay a price. It was unwise to pay such a price at this timing. Unless… Xia Hou and his team could easily take down Tang Mei’er and the rest…

“Shall we take a look?” Luo Li shifted her gaze over to Mu Chen.

Mu Chen’s eyes flickered and he nodded his head, “It’s sooner or later that Xia Hou will set us as his target. An enemy’s enemy is our friend. Furthermore, the Myriad Phoenix Spiritual Academy and the Martial Spiritual Academy are not our enemies, or at least we have not reached that step. If we lend them a hand, they would owe us a favour. Not a bad thing for us.”

Furthermore… if it was Tang Mei’er, with her relationship with Tang Qian’er, there’s no way he could stand watch with folded arms. Except, he could only think about this thought in his heart…

Mu Chen sneaked a glance towards Luo Li. The latter smiled and looked at him and calmly nodded her head. “Since you have made your decision, then let’s go.”

Looking at her, who seemed to be unaware of Mu Chen’s thoughts, Mu Chen felt a little guilty in his head. On the spot, he could only dryly smile and move. He shifted his direction and rapidly flew towards the direction of the Spiritual Energy ripples.

…

In that Forest of Darkness, violent Spiritual Energy ripples fluctuated to the point that the surrounding demonic trees were shaking from the energy. Cracks also started to appear on the tree bark.

Boom!

In the center of all that rampant Spiritual Energy, two figures were like lightning as they clashed. Following after was the wind from their palms as fearsome Spiritual Energy ripples spread out. In the ground below, cracks spreaded as a huge ravine spread towards the distance.

In that frightening bombardment, one of the figures trembled, while the other slender figure flew out along with a mouthful of blood spurting from her mouth.

“Captain!”

Behind her, four figures flew over and supported her as they yelled.

“Haha, Captain Tang Mei’er seems like your luck is not that good. As a matter of fact, I did not intend to clash with your team. However, who could have foreseen that you gave us such a good chance?” Up in front of her, a figure slowly descend with a faint smile. It was the Captain of Saint Spiritual Academy, Xia Hou.

Behind him, four of his teammates flew over and fixed their eyes on the Myriad Phoenix Spiritual Academy’s team.
