Chapter 214: Let"s Leave Together!Qingyun city.
Lou Xiaoxiao and the others desperately ran forward. They were close to the city"s borders. However, the Mo Family members, who had been following them at a steady pace, had suddenly increased their speed and surrounded them at the city"s entrance.
“Humph, pitiful fellows of the Lou family, the game has ended.”
A group of people riding tall horses, armed with longbows and slender arrows, faced the juniors of the Lou family in an orderly manner.
A cold light flickered from those sharp arrows under the sunlight.
The threat of death made everyone"s scalps turn numb. The younger ones amongst the Lou family juniors couldn"t control themselves. They started to cry out of fear.
Lou Xiaoxiao"s heart tightened. She tightly held her long sword and closed her reddish eyes for a moment. When she opened them again, her eyes were filled with streaks of blood.
At the next moment, a light flashed from her sword.
“Falling Flowers!”
Buzz!
The tip of Lou Xiaoxiao"s sword trembled as a subtle essence martial power shot out of it. The power condensed into beautiful transparent flowers and floated in the surroundings as if it were all a dream.
Before everyone could react, Lou Xiaoxiao said in a soft voice, “Go!”
At the next moment!
The transparent flowers rapidly spun, then they swiftly flew toward her enemies, who were laughing on their horses.
When the flowers touched these men, the flowers exploded with a bang.
In an instant, all the flowers exploded one after another. Flesh and skin belonging to the enemies on the horses flew everywhere. Although they did not have to fight for their lives, they were messed up.
Lou Xiaoxiao paved a way leading out of the encirclement!
“Quickly! Run!”
Lou Xiaoxiao roared. She did not leave, and instead, stood guard toward the end. Her sword continuously moved as she used various techniques to resist the arrows getting close to her.
Dang dang dang!
Lou Xiaoxiao weaved her sword and deflected the arrows onto the ground.
Upon seeing that some time had pa.s.sed, she turned around and glanced at the juniors of the Lou family. Right at this moment—
Whoosh!
A sharp arrow pierced her shoulder.
“Wooo!” Lou Xiaoxiao made a dull noise as she raised her arm to block a few arrows again. She made use of the force and flew backward. Then, she turned around and followed the juniors of the Lou family to escape.
The enemies behind her had slowed down, but they continued to pursue them.
Soon!
Lou Xiaoxiao and the others reached Qingyun Mountain outside Qingyun City.
“Sister Xiaoxiao, you"re injured!”
The tall bushes had stopped the enemies from advancing. The juniors of the Lou family made use of the trees to hide. At this point, there were about 60 or 70 of the juniors who had survived.
Lou Xiaoxiao sat with her back against the shrubs. Her face was pale, and she felt waves of dizziness. However, she forced herself to stay calm.
“Xiaozhong.” She shouted for her brother, Lou Waizhong. He was the eldest one who she could trust amongst the group.
“There are many demonic beasts in Qingyun Mountain. I"m injured now, and it will easily attract demonic beasts. It"s very dangerous for you all to follow me.”
“Sister!”
“A short while after they reach here, I"ll distract them away. Take everyone and leave. Go to Fengyang prefecture! We"re a branch of the Lou family in Fengyang prefecture. They may not seek revenge for us, but they will definitely take you all in. And… go to Baiyan City. Tell Qianxue to not come back! Don"t ever come back!”
“Sister, I don"t want to. Let"s leave together.”
“Sister Xiaoxiao, let"s leave together!”
These juniors from the Lou family had lost their families and everything. They were in a state of panic. Right now, Lou Xiaoxiao was their main pillar of support, and they did not know whether they could persist without her.
“Be obedient!” Lou Xiaoxiao closed her eyes. “The Lou family in Qingyun City is already gone. You all cannot be so innocent and naive as you were in the past. There are many matters that you all have to face yourselves.
“If you all stay, you will become a burden to me. In the end, we"ll either die together in the beasts" mouths or die from the arrows of the enemies!”
“Leave. You all still have a glimmer of hope to live. In the future, you all can seek revenge for me, for your parents, and for our Lou family. You all can rebuild the Lou family. I won"t force you all. Decide for yourselves!”
