Chapter 306: Brothers Together
“Oh no, they’ve discovered us.”
“Split up!”
The exit was almost within reach, but they were targeted by the three monsters. The two brothers had no choice but to run in a direction quickly, wanting to take advantage of the chaos to enter the exit.
On Liu Wen’s side, he was just between the two spiders. The row of eyes on its head lit up as it watched the little thing run under its body.
The two spiders temporarily put aside their prejudices and started punching and kicking the little fellow below.
Although there was indeed a grudge between the two spiders, these grudges were not worth mentioning compared to the humans. These humans were still the main targets of both sides. A large number of them had already died just now, yet someone still dared to appear. They really did not know what was good for them.
The huge spider kept dancing its long and narrow legs as it stabbed at Liu Wen, who was constantly twisting and turning below.
Every time it stabbed into the ground, it would leave a huge pit hundreds of feet deep. Even the waves that splashed up made one unable to stand steadily.
Fortunately, Liu Wen’s feet were indeed hard enough. He watched as rocks and sand kept flying in front of him, causing a violent wind of gravel and soil. However, he could always find a way out in this narrow gap.
Although the big spider was playing tricks with its feet, it did not seem to be paying much attention at first. Instead, it made way for Liu Wen to run over at a very fast speed.
Moreover, these two spiders were slightly weaker. The two of them had yet to cooperate at the beginning and were fighting their own battles. Liu Wen took this opportunity to crawl to the exit without hesitation. He was less than a thousand feet away and could already reach the altar that was flickering with a strange light.
At that moment, the door to the s.p.a.ce opened. The light twisted and turned until it was a vortex. A suction force was emitted from the vortex, constantly absorbing everything outside.
Seeing that Liu Wen was about to crawl out, the big spider finally came to a realization.
It roared angrily, and its fat abdomen bulged high. Black threads spewed out from its abdomen, and it spat them out as if it was courting death. Moreover, these threads seemed to have a very strong corrosive effect. Wherever they touched, black fog rose.
Liu Wen was shocked and suddenly took a step back because a thread had already blocked the path in front of him. It drew a black chasm on the path and isolated him.
On the other hand, although Yang Tianqi was facing a powerful snake demon, the snake demon did not give him much pressure. Yang Tianqi’s movement technique had always been more agile.
In addition, the snake’s body was huge and there were many places to cover its vision. So Yang Tianqi used the advantage of his vision to toy with it. In the end, he gradually approached the exit. Seeing that he was about to leave, the snake was furious. It swung its huge tail and smashed it towards the path in front of Yang Tianqi, wanting to create a ravine here to stop Yang Tianqi from continuing forward.
These demons all knew the use of this place. They had used this place as bait to lure many humans and kill them all.
Although the two people in front of them looked much stronger than the fellows just now, their goal was the same. As long as they were stopped from pa.s.sing through here, these two fellows would make mistakes in their anxiety.
Yang Tianqi immediately stopped the moment the snake raised its tail. He stood there and watched as the snake’s tail smashed down heavily. Just as the snake’s tail landed, he instantly ignored the flying sand and stones and jumped from the edge of the ravine hundreds of feet away.
Yang Tianqi rolled on the ground a few times and looked at the teleportation gate that was already in front of him. He looked in Liu Wen’s direction happily, but he realized that Liu Wen’s front was filled with venom.
The webs of the spiders had already completely sealed the path in front of Liu Wen, blocking the entire area, leaving no room for him to land.
Seeing that Liu Wen’s living s.p.a.ce was getting narrower and narrower and that he was constantly retreating, Yang Tianqi looked back. The snake’s eyes were looking at him venomously.
“Liu Wen, I’ll come and save you. Come this way!”
Yang Tianqi ignored the victory in front of him and ran and jumped in Liu Wen’s direction.
“Leave me alone. Leave!”
“No, I promised Master that I would bring you out.”
“Cut the c.r.a.p and get lost. I don’t need you to save me.”
“Liu Wen!”
“Leave now!”
The yellow sand that filled the sky made the already low visibility s.p.a.ce even more dim.
Yang Tianqi could not find Liu Wen either. The huge snake was furious as it twisted its huge body, wanting to wrap Yang Tianqi in the middle.
Helpless, Yang Tianqi could only take advantage of the snake’s unguarded state to escape to the altar that had been prepared in advance.
In the next second, Yang Tianqi felt the scene in front of him flash. Everything had changed. The yellow sand that filled the sky had disappeared, and the roars of the snakes and spiders could not be heard at all. Now, it has become the bottom of another dark riverbed.
Outside the dark s.p.a.ce, someone was waiting anxiously.
Huang Daxian came up and grabbed Yang Tianqi’s neck, pulling him up. He looked at Yang Tianqi greedily.
“Kid, where are your things? Give me the sand vine fruit quickly.”
Yang Tianqi pulled Huang Daxian’s hand away and said coldly, “I won’t give it to you unless you can save my brother.”
“What do you mean save? By the way, where did he go? Did he die inside?”
“You’re the one who died inside. He’s alive and well now, but he’s been entangled by two demon beasts and can’t come out for the time being. I want you to think of a way to save him. Otherwise, you won’t be able to get anything.”
“Are you joking? I can’t enter that place.” Huang Daxian widened his eyes and said angrily, “Can you stop being unreasonable here? As long as you bring that fruit out, I’ll give you the reward. What does your brother’s life and death have to do with you?”
“Of course it does. If he can’t get out, then I won’t hand these things over. Dream on.”
As Yang Tianqi spoke, he retreated with the sword shining with divine light in his hand.
Huang Daxian’s expression turned ugly as he stared at Yang Tianqi with a dark expression.
“Kid, you can’t be serious. Are you really going against me?”
“Cut the c.r.a.p. He went in to help you pick that fruit. Now you have to get him out or you won’t get anything.”
Huang Daxian gritted his teeth and walked up to Yang Tianqi. He glared at him and said, “You’re joking with me, right? I took out so many things. I prepared so many life-saving things for the two of you, but the two of you disappointed me and are going to die inside. Can you blame me?”
“Cut the c.r.a.p. Do you have a way or not?”
Huang Daxian was about to flare up when his expression suddenly changed, as if he had thought of a good idea. He put on a smile and looked up at Yang Tianqi. “Good, good. I suddenly thought of a way after you reminded me. However, I can’t do it. I have to ask Brother Liang.”
“Then hurry up and find Brother Liang. I won’t take anything out before I see my junior brother.”
Huang Daxian said with a troubled and sad expression, “Kid, don’t you know at all? I spent all my savings to send the two of you in. I don’t have a single cent on me now. If you want him to help you so much, you have to give him something, right? Moreover, it’s such a difficult thing. Others definitely won’t like ordinary benefits.”
Yang Tianqi thought about it and felt that it made sense. This guy had indeed taken out a lot of resources. Although he did not know if it was true, it was indeed reasonable for him to say that he had nothing on hand. Moreover, it was a race against time. If they were to get entangled with each other now, Liu Wen would probably be beaten up badly. He might even be eaten up by the snake.
Yang Tianqi hesitated and said, “What do you want?”
“Of course it’s the Sand Vine Fruit.” Huang Daxian realized that he seemed to be a little agitated, so he immediately calmed himself down and lowered his voice to suppress his emotions. “Since you’ve already walked around inside, you must know very well that this fruit is a popular thing now. If you use this thing to benefit them, they will definitely think of a way. I remember that they still left a special pa.s.sageway. They will definitely be able to enter.”
“Then how confident are you?”
“Who can say for sure? I only heard them say that back then. It’s very difficult to say how confident they are.” Huang Daxian wanted to lie completely. Seeing the hesitation on Yang Tianqi’s face, he immediately said, “However, since he dares to say such a thing, he must have a way.”
Yang Tianqi couldn’t care less. He waved his hand and a pile of sand vine fruits appeared in his arms.
Huang Daxian looked at the fruits on the ground and felt smug. However, he was still one step away from success. He could not give up halfway like this. He pretended not to care and looked at Yang Tianqi. “Is this all you got this time?”
Yang Tianqi covered his waist and looked at him. “Why do you care so much? Take these and get some benefits. It’s definitely enough. Hurry up and save my brother.”
Huang Daxian’s eyes lit up and he immediately agreed. “Sure, sure. I’ll go find Brother Liang now. He will definitely have a way to save your brother.”
Yang Tianqi watched as Huang Daxian walked towards him. Although he was a little wary, he did not put in too much effort. He let Huang Daxian put away this pile of sand vine fruits in front of him.
Just as Huang Daxian was collecting the fruits, he suddenly let out a low cry, as if he had been bitten by something.
Yang Tianqi wanted to go over and take a look, but after getting close for a while, he suddenly smelled a strange fragrance on Huang Daxian’s body. This fragrance was very strange. He did not notice what it was for a moment.
In the next second, Yang Tianqi felt that his entire body was very heavy. This made him sleepy.
Huang Daxian looked at Yang Tianqi, who was lying on the ground, and laughed strangely.
“Brat, you’re playing tricks with me. The two of you are still young. I see that your strength is not bad. You actually collected so many fruits. I really didn’t misjudge you back then. You two brats really have some ability.”
Just as he was feeling smug, a figure suddenly appeared behind him.
Brother Liang appeared in front of him with a bruised face.
Huang Daxian was shocked by the sudden appearance of Brother Liang. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly realized that there was someone following behind Brother Liang. That person was the black-robed leader.
“How dare you steal from us? You must be tired of living.”
The leader’s voice was very cold and his words were abnormally terrifying.
Brother Liang’s face was filled with bitterness. He was already half-dead.
Huang Daxian acutely sensed that the current situation was very disadvantageous to him. He hurriedly smiled apologetically and said, “I think you’ve misunderstood. I didn’t steal anything.”
The man in black threw Brother Liang to the ground and looked at him coldly. “He’s already confessed everything, but you’re still so stubborn. I didn’t expect you to find such strong thugs and steal all our achievements. You’re really ruthless.”
Huang Daxian did not know what this fellow meant. He only felt that he was in big trouble now. Although he was retreating and thinking of a countermeasure, the strength of the person in front of him was not something he could provoke.
“Senior, I really don’t know what you mean. Could it be related to this kid? I don’t know this kid. I was just pa.s.sing by. This kid fell to the ground just now. I don’t know anything. If you want him, I’ll give him to you.”
As Huang Daxian spoke, he threw Yang Tianqi away heavily. He turned around and rushed up. This movement technique simply used up decades of escaping experience. At this moment, he turned into a black shadow and disappeared at the bottom of the river.
The man in black took Yang Tianqi’s gaze and looked coldly in the direction Huang Daxian had fled. He followed him without hesitation.
Feeling the powerful force approaching behind him, Huang Daxian could not say anything. He did not expect that his feet would really get wet after walking by the river for a long time. How could he have thought that he would encounter such serious trouble this time and even lure such a big shot over?
