Chapter 858 - 859 - Wei Yuanwei is dead?As for the lions that were about to attack, they immediately retreated when they saw the light.
Upon seeing this, the rest of the people all picked up their burning torches and waved them towards the attacking lions.
The lions didn"t dare to move forward, but they still opened their mouths wide, filled with blood and saliva.
Even though everyone had taken off their outer garments to burn, they could not hold on for too long. The moment the flames were extinguished, all the lions who could no longer hold themselves back and wanted to eat their fill pounced over.
The sounds of biting, growling, and the pain of flesh and blood being devoured filled the air.
Every single one of them was by Wei Yuanwei"s ears. Wei Yuanwei, who was being protected behind him, raised her head and looked straight at the roof.
But no light seeped through the roof.
"Puchi" The sword in Han Yue"s hand pierced into the lion"s chest, causing hot blood to spurt out and splash onto Wei Yuanwei"s body.
The warm blood and her ice-cold body formed a stark contrast.
Her entire face was frighteningly white. She had thought that she would die, but she had never thought that she would be bitten to death by a lion!
Han Yue killed a lion and immediately, another lion pounced towards him.
Han Yue would have a chance to dodge it, but if he did, she would become a lion"s food.
The smell of blood inside his nose was getting stronger and stronger, and a tear flowed down the corner of Wei Yuanwei"s eye.
She might be able to live in front of people, but in the face of brutal animals, she would not even have a complete corpse.
Wei Yuanwei suddenly understood that she was not as strong as she had imagined, she was not that powerful!
In the face of a powerful enemy, her life was very fragile, as fragile as a piece of paper. The reason why she was able to live until now was all because she was being protected by a powerful person.
It was also because of this layer of protection that she was able to display her little cleverness and cleverness!
Just as Han Yue was about to be unable to resist anymore, a large hole finally appeared in the roof due to the tremors.
The white robed man stood against the light as the strong inner force struck the lion"s body, causing the lion that was about to bite Han Yue"s throat to fall to the ground. Han Yue, who had lost a lot of blood, seemed to relax a little as he closed his eyes and fainted on the side.
In the next second, the chess pieces in his sleeve were like sharp blades that shot into the eyes of the lions. Immediately after that, the other guards jumped down with swords in hand, killing the group of lions that had lost their sense of direction.
"Mu Jin!" Wei Yuanwei lifted her head. Her ashen face was clearly reflected under the moonlight, and her voice was frighteningly soft.
And it was only at the moment he saw Mu Jin that Wei Yuanwei revealed the fear and dread that he suppressed at the bottom of his heart.
His weak legs could no longer hold on and he fell to the ground.
Beneath the silver mask were a pair of pitch-black eyes, as he faintly looked at Wei Yuanwei who had fallen into a pool of blood.
Just as Wei Yuanwei was about to collapse onto the ground, the spotless figure flew forward and hugged onto that frail body.
The fear in Wei Yuanwei"s eyes had yet to completely recede, and the look in her eyes became a little unfocused. Her hands held tightly onto Mu Jin"s clothes that was embroidered with cloud patterns, and she said with a voice as loud as a mosquito, "Mu Jin, I"m so scared!"
She had seen slaughter, but she had never seen a wild beast tear and devour her companions" corpses in front of her, and she was the next …
No one would ever understand. The feeling of knowing that one was going to die, but waiting for death to come!
It was not pain, nor was it a breakdown. It was a mental and psychological torment!
The thin lips under the silver mask curled slightly, and a deep and deep voice came out from his lips, "Don"t be afraid, I"m here!"
After he finished speaking, he carried Wei Yuanwei and flew out of the col.
The cool breeze blew against Wei Yuanwei"s face, dispersing the stench of blood from her breath. Wei Yuanwei then buried her head in Mu Jin"s chest, listening to the powerful heartbeat coming from Mu Jin"s chest, only then did she feel that she was back to life.
"How could this be?" The surrounding torches lit up the entire col as bright as day.
Corpses laid outside the hut and the blood that flowed out dyed the white clothes on the ground red.
"Iris …" Mu Jin"s eyes flashed, there were too many hidden emotions inside, fear, worry, fear, and even his voice was trembling.
When he arrived at the collapsed secret room, the scene inside made Mu Jin"s pupils shrink even more.
The lion"s corpse and the remains of people that were bitten by lions appeared before Mu Jin"s eyes. In that narrow s.p.a.ce, were the skin, bones and flesh of human beings. The blood that flowed out had already completely covered the color of the wooden hut.
This was not the first time Mu Jin had seen such a shocking scene, but this time, he was filled with an unprecedented level of fear and dread.
His entire heart was shaking violently. In that instant, his face beneath the silver mask had turned deathly pale, and his dark red lips had lost all color.
"Iris …" Mu Jin called out once again, and then jumped into the secret room.
The Iris would be fine, definitely not. Han Yue would protect her, so she should have escaped. She wouldn"t be eaten by a lion.
However, in the next second, Mu Jin"s gaze fell upon a body that was dressed in pink. This corpse could no longer be called corpse, its head had already been bitten into a b.l.o.o.d.y mess by a lion, and there was no way to recognize its facial features at all.
A mouthful of blood was almost spurted out from Mu Jin"s throat, but he resisted the urge with all his might.
Veins popped out one by one from his skin, and his eyes bulged. His hands, which were hanging from his sleeves, could not help but tremble.
This was an Iris dress. No, why did it become like this?
He didn"t believe it, he didn"t believe it …
"Ahh …" Mu Jin held his head, kneeling in the pool of blood, and shouted out fiercely.
Wei Yuanwei woke up from her dream in fright. Fear and despair were written all over her eyes as she continuously yelled: Mu Jin, Mu Jin.
At this time, a pair of hands grabbed onto Wei Yuanwei who was still in the air: "I"m here, don"t be afraid!"
It was only when Wei Yuanwei grabbed onto that hand that the fear in Wei Yuanwei"s eyes gradually dissipated. She immediately threw herself into Mu Jin"s embrace, and held onto Mu Jin"s body. "Mu Jin, I"m really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really terrifying!"
"It"s fine. As long as I"m here, no one will hurt you. Just treat it as a dream!" Mu Jin consoled Wei Yuanwei in a low voice while hugging her slightly trembling body.
However, Wei Yuanwei"s body still continued to tremble uncontrollably. This was a terrifying shadow, and she was not an a.s.sa.s.sin without blinking an eye.
