Chapter 198: How Can It Possibly Be Crown Prince Jun?
Just as she"s about to speak, Madam Yan"s pair of strict eyes werelike the cold edge of a blade as they swept over her face. Yan Yanimmediately no longer spoke.
Madam Yan gazed towards Feng Wu with a very complicated look.
Previously, when they were at Needs Filled Temple, she only felt thatthis girl was aggressive and domineering, vulgar and violent. However,after the close call with the demonic beast tide and earthquakes, MadamYan actually gradually changed her point of view towards Feng Wu.
At the soft s.p.a.ce between Madam Yan"s eyebrows, here, a throbbingpain manifested from time to time. Could it be that this young lady hadtruly accurately diagnosed her condition? She truly suffered from anincurable disease and would leave this world not long from now?
Thinking of this, Madam Yan only felt her heart rate speed up and herback turning cold……her hand subconsciously covered the pit of herstomach.
But it"s no use thinking of these things right now. What"s most important was to get through the obstacle before them.
"Mother, she——" Yan Yan wanted to complain to Madam Yan.
But what was hard for her to believe was that her mother, who hadalways s.h.i.+elded her one-sidedly presently actually admonished her withan exceptionally strict tone of voice. "Shut up if you don"t want todie!"
Yan Yan suddenly felt extremely aggrieved, and cried with "wah wah" sounds as she ran away……
But Madam Yan could no longer bother with Yan Yan"s little temper.She looked into Feng Wu"s eyes, revealing a bit of hope and expectation,revealing a bit of appreciation, and also some nervousness.
At a time were life and death was on the line, time pa.s.sed especially slowly. Each second seemed as long as a century.
However, time still pa.s.sed minute by minute, second by second.
Everyone stood on top of the city gate tower, their gazes stretchingfar into the distance with great effort, towards the direction ofPeaceful Remote City. Everybody waited for support troops to appear inthe distant horizon that could save them from the midst of fires.
"Where are the rescue troops? Why are there no rescue troops, why……"
"How much time has already pa.s.sed now?"
"Fourteen minutes already. There"s only the very last minute left——"
Again, it"s the most urgent single last minute……General Wu observedthe densely packed demonic beast tide below the city walls. A deepfeeling of despair appeared in his heart.
Because he"d been stationed at Winding Peace City for years on end,General Wu and demons**had engaged many times, but none of those timeswere like this time. The demonic beasts surged towards them with anabsolutely crus.h.i.+ng momentum——
"Fifty nine, fifty eight, fifty seven, fifty six——"
With each pa.s.sing second, everybody"s hearts pulsed violently.
Each and every person on top of the city wall, as they focused intothe distance, they focused at the demonic beast tide, while alsofocusing on the a.s.sembly PaG.o.da——
The very last spirit crystal had already been inserted into thea.s.sembly PaG.o.da. Along with the pa.s.sing of time, the originally brightrays of light from the a.s.sembly PaG.o.da could be seen to be darkening at aspeed visible to the naked eye——
Oh no——
At this moment, the color of despair appeared inside everyone"s hearts.
So much so that ice-cold despair even burst forth within Feng Wu"s heart.
Because she also was out of ideas.
What she could do was to strive her hardest in protecting the peoplebeside her, however……based on her current strength, how would it bepossible for her to protect them?
Just when Feng Wu"s brain was in a great mess, suddenly——
"Look everybody! A person, there"s a figure approaching on horsebackin the northeast direction! He"s coming towards our direction! He"scoming towards us!"
It was unknown who cried out in surprise!
Instantly, everybody"s line of sight looked towards that direction!
"But, there"s merely a single figure, what difference can he make?"Yan Yan scowled sullenly. "If that person is Crown Prince Jun, thenundoubtedly he"d have the insane power to turn things around. However,how can it possibly be Crown Prince Jun? Eh? This figure, why does itlook more and more like……can it be that prior to facing death"s door,hallucinations are appearing?"
