Who will lead the way?
Tang Huan smiled and glanced at everyone, but there was no smile in his eyes.
He did not know whether or not his true ident.i.ty had been exposed in the Dragon Spring Town, but regardless of whether or not it was exposed, with his current situation, the best way to deal with this group of people was to leave them to fend for themselves. He was very clear that the moment he took action to rescue them, as long as this group of people successfully returned to Dragon Spring Town, his whereabouts would definitely spread out.
However, with Gu Ying here, Tang Huan did not hesitate to make his move.
This was because the moment he made a move, the Dragon and Phoenix Spear would be revealed to everyone. At this time, even if he were to cover his face with a cloth, it would be equivalent to taking off his pants and farting. This was why Tang Huan did not try to hide anything.
Since he had already helped, it was naturally impossible for him to only save Gu Ying and abandon his companions.
When he was observing from afar, Tang Huan knew that their performance was extremely terrible, but he just realised that these people were even worse than what he had imagined. It was normal for them to be afraid of death, and there was nothing to criticize.
One must know that if not for Gu Ying, these other eleven people would have been completely annihilated.
Sensing the hidden ridicule in Tang Huan"s tone, all of their faces were full of awkwardness and none of them said a word. After a moment of silence, the fat man smiled and said, "Brother, aren"t we afraid that you will work hard? Moreover, it"s too dangerous for you to bring so many people with you. "
When the women and the injured man heard this, their expressions became even more unsightly.
A man with his left arm torn off couldn"t help but point at the fat man and curse, "Tang Chen, to think I, Li He, used to regard you as a friend. I didn"t expect you to be such a person!" Today, I finally recognized you. And you, you, you … I was really blind before. "
Although the fat man called Tang Chen and the others did not directly say that they were going to abandon the woman who was already a burden and the injured, the meaning was very clear.
Tang Chen and the others who were pointed out by Li He did not utter a word, but their faces were gloomy.
"You"re right, it"s dangerous to bring so many people with you."
The expression in Tang Huan"s eyes moved slightly as he suddenly agreed and nodded his head. However, the words that followed immediately changed as he looked at Tang Chen with a smile and said, "However, it"s not too late to wake up now. With my ability, I should be able to take one person out with me."
At this point, Tang Huan looked at Gu Ying in the blink of an eye. "Brother Gu, let"s go.
Hearing Tang Huan"s words, Gu Ying laughed bitterly, but Tang Chen and the rest"s faces were stiff like wooden chickens.
They originally thought that Tang Huan was just a stranger pa.s.sing by, but hearing Tang Huan"s current tone of voice, they seemed to be extremely familiar with each other. The two of them obviously knew each other before. The reason why the other party did not care about danger to rescue him was most likely because they were here for Gu Ying. When they scolded Gu Ying like that earlier, they had obviously angered him. If he had really only brought Gu Ying and fled, then everyone would have no choice but to die.
In an instant, the faces of Tang Chen and the others turned ashen, their eyes revealing uncontrollable panic.
"Bro, don"t be angry. This is indeed their fault."
The white clothed man called s.h.i.+ Qian suddenly laughed, and laughed, "Gu Ying is the best. Since we have entered Dragon Spring Ancient Town together, we should leave this place together. It was time to work together and get out of this mess. Brother, we shall do as you say. "
Tang Huan sneered in his heart, but when he caught a glimpse of the surrounding vengeful spirits closing in on him, he was too lazy to waste his time talking to them. His expression suddenly darkened as he shouted in a low voice, "I"ll cut off the rear, who will lead the way?"
"I"ll do it!" Gu Ying clenched his teeth and said.
"Count me in too."
s.h.i.+ Qian laughed loudly and said, "Tang Chen, all of you who still have some strength left and right, the rest are all in the middle …" Saying that, s.h.i.+ Qian seemed to have thought of something, he laughed and looked at Tang Huan: "Brother, what do you think about this arrangement?"
"Alright!"
Tang Huan did not waste any more time speaking, he only gave a hidden glance at the broken wall to the right, which was more than ten meters away, and the Dragon and Phoenix Spear in his hand started to dance once again. Tang Chen and the others grit their teeth and spread out to the left and right, while Gu Ying and s.h.i.+ Qian walked to the front.
The group of ten-odd people moved forward once again.
"Chi!" "Swish …"
The sound of something tearing through the air rose and fell.
Tang Huan did not use any battle skills, nor did he use the goal of killing the vengeful spirit. However, the Dragon and Phoenix spears in his hands seemed to have transformed into spirit objects that possessed their own lives, sweeping and stabbing left and right, smas.h.i.+ng and slas.h.i.+ng down.
"Ah!" Ah! "Yah …"
Screams could be heard incessantly.
Even though those vengeful spirits were pursuing them relentlessly, they did not dare to approach within two meters of Tang Huan. The power of fire seemed to have an innate restraining effect on this kind of dark and cold life. With just Tang Huan"s spear, not only did it block the enemies chasing from behind, it also blocked off the left, right, and high up in the sky.
However, it was getting harder for Gu Ying in front of him.
Although Gu Ying"s fighting strength was astonis.h.i.+ng, he was already extremely exhausted, his Genuine Qi was almost exhausted, only because of Tang Huan"s appearance, he became spirited again, but this state could not be maintained for long, after a while, his Genuine Qi was completely exhausted, and he could only rely on his flesh body to endure.
"Tang Chen, you guys replace Gu Ying and go ahead to open the path." Tang Huan suddenly shouted loudly.
"On..."
The heat wave produced by Tang Huan"s spear had already forced most of the vengeful spirits to retreat, so they only needed to deal with a few who had slipped through the net. If they were to run to the front to open up a path, they would have to face the berserk attacks of many vengeful spirits, which might even cost their lives. However, the moment Tang Chen said those words, he swallowed the words that he was about to say.
Right now, Tang Huan was the main force fighting against the vengeful spirits, and if they got enraged and left, they would definitely die.
"Let"s go!"
Tang Chen and the others were indignant, but there was nothing they could do. Suppressing their anger, they ran forward.
Tang Chen and the others might not be as strong as Gu Ying at his peak, but their energy consumption was obviously not as great as Gu Ying"s. Now that they had been forced to replace Gu Ying and stand in front with s.h.i.+ Qian, they had no choice but to put their lives on the line.
Gu Ying retreated, and stood by the left and right of the man with the broken arm and the rest. As a result, the speed of the group increased greatly.
Unknowingly, everyone had already arrived at the edge of Longquan town. They could vaguely see the abandoned stone building at the town"s entrance that had been there for a long time.
"Haha, work harder and you will soon be able to leave the ancient town. I hope these vengeful spirits will not chase after them!" s.h.i.+ Qian brandished his sword and laughed out loud while gasping for breath.
"Yah!"
However, just as s.h.i.+ Qian finished his sentence, an exceptionally sharp scream suddenly came from the depths of the ancient town. That scream was like an incomparably sharp arrow leaving the bowstring, piercing through the void and piercing into everyone"s eardrums, causing their hearts to quiver and their souls to tremble.
PS: It is the third time today. It has been less than two months since the book was published. It has already reached two hundred chapters. Under the condition that there isn"t a script, this speed is considered not slow at all.
