Unrivaled Miracle Doctor: The God-Defying Demonic Consort

Chapter 746: Chapter 181: Split Up! Escape (Second Update)

This scene left all four of them with astonished looks in their eyes.

These monsters actually have such means and surprisingly didn’t use them initially. It seems they intended to tangle them up with residual souls.

’Truly cunning!’

Mu Qingge’s heart sank.

At this moment, the residual souls were collected by the two bags, and those green-skinned creatures blown into the air by Ji Yaohua’s wind power, entangled with the souls, fell from the sky one after another.

Transformed into hundreds of small creatures, they charged at the four of them ferociously.

At a glance, it was like a green river rushing towards them.

The four of them narrowed their eyes. Mu Qingge was about to grip the Linglong Spear and fight back but was firmly held by Xi Qianxue beside her.

Xi Qianxue shook her head desperately and said anxiously to her: ”They are indestructible, the more you kill, the more they appear; these are transformed from the two that chased us earlier!”

Mu Qingge’s expression turned grim. She grabbed Xi Qianxue’s hand and fled forward with her.

Ji Yaohua and Ying Ze did the same. All four desperately flew low ahead, while those green-skinned creatures still pursued them relentlessly.

Mu Qingge turned his head to look, noting those two large monsters still commanding the smaller creatures to chase after them.

Now the ones pursuing them were no longer just those two; more than a dozen small creatures surrounding the two large monsters had also joined the chase.

Those piercing screams continually sounded, almost making their heads explode.

Mu Qingge considered releasing Xiao Cai to escape, but these spiritual attacks wouldn’t spare Xiao Cai. They could barely resist by protecting their heads with Spiritual Power.

What about Xiao Cai?

Mu Qingge did not want to risk Xiao Cai.

”This won’t work, we must split up and attract these creatures separately, only then can we relieve some pressure.” Ji Yaohua, supporting Ying Ze, said to Mu Qingge.

This was indeed a good idea, but if they separated, they might face more dangers later.

Ji Yaohua urged, ”There’s no time to hesitate! My speed is fast; I’ll take Ying Ze and leave. You take the Goddess Ye Yao, and when we’ve shaken them off, we’ll meet again!”

After saying this, he added, ”Meet at the cave where Wei Molili is held.”

Mu Qingge nodded solemnly.

Ji Yaohua wasted no time, instantly fleeing with Ying Ze in the other direction, utilizing his Innate Wind Spirit Root to the extreme, moving so fast that only a shadow remained.

As he thought, half of the creatures split off to continue chasing him.

The other half continued to follow Mu Qingge and Xi Qianxue.

Supporting Xi Qianxue, Mu Qingge swiftly left as well. Her speed was almost as fast as Ji Yaohua’s!

The green ’river’ split into two currents, heading in different directions.

The two large green-skinned monsters exchanged a glance and also went in separate directions. They seemed relentless unless they caught Mu Qingge and the others.

Mu Qingge kept expending Spiritual Power, flying rapidly.

Though the spiritual attacks gradually weakened, they still agitated their awareness. She was almost unaffected, but from Xi Qianxue’s pained expression, she knew Xi was still heavily affected.

Mu Qingge watched Xi Qianxue, who began showing signs of exhaustion, bloodied all over. Gritting her teeth, Mu Qingge accelerated further, widening the gap between them and their pursuers.

In the desolate Ancient Battlefield, Mu Qingge had no idea how long she ran. Unable to see the green-skinned creatures behind, Xi Qianxue’s expression eased, no longer in as much pain.

’Managed to shake them off?’ Mu Qingge wondered internally.

Unwilling to lower her guard, Mu Qingge continued running forward with Xi Qianxue for a while.

After confirming that the creatures were no longer tailing them, she found a suitable resting spot and landed.

Xi Qianxue had fainted, held in Mu Qingge’s arms. Losing too much blood turned her skin pale, fragile as if it were paper.

Mu Qingge lowered her gaze to look at Xi Qianxue, carefully placing her on the ground.

Standing up, she turned around to survey the surroundings, releasing her Spiritual Sense to monitor the environment. Should the creatures chase again, she’d immediately flee with Xi Qianxue.

’Indestructible! The more killed, the more appear!’ Mu Qingge furrowed her brows, this was the most troubling aspect.

These creatures were even more bizarre and formidable than she imagined!

’I wonder if Ji Yaohua and the others escaped?’ Mu Qingge asked herself internally.

She turned, squatting before Xi Qianxue, to heal her wounds.

...

”Ji Yaohua, let go of me and go alone,” Ying Ze said, one of his hands wrapped over Ji Yaohua’s shoulder, held tightly by Ji Yaohua, who also firmly gripped Ying Ze’s belt with the other hand. Weakly, he looked at the pale Ji Yaohua, speaking to him.

Blood stains remained on Ying Ze’s face, and he was covered in numerous wounds, in a precarious condition.

”Are you joking? Leave you for those creatures to devour?” Ji Yaohua cursed harshly. Then, he added, ”If Pianpian finds out, she won’t spare me!”

Ying Ze gave a bitter smile, lowered his eyes, and said, ”If you go alone, you’ll be faster, with a better chance of escaping.”

”Stop with the nonsense! Save your strength to stay alive! I’m telling you, even if I die here, I won’t leave you behind to escape alone.” Ji Yaohua snapped, quickening his pace.

Behind them, in the distance, those green-skinned monsters kept approaching.

Ji Yaohua’s temples dripped with cold sweat. He discreetly grabbed some elixir to replenish his spiritual power, stuffed it into his mouth, and swallowed it in large gulps. He continued to run with Ying Ze.

His spiritual power storage couldn’t compare to that of Mu Qingge, and since he was carrying a man with him while having gone through a fierce battle and sustained injuries, he was actually on the brink of collapse.

Now, he was only able to continue fleeing with Ying Ze, entirely relying on his willpower!

’Faster! Faster! Faster!’ Ji Yaohua kept reciting in his heart, as if self-hypnotizing.

His eyes showed signs of exhaustion, yet he kept gritting his teeth and persevering.

Seeing him like this, Ying Ze pooled his remaining strength into his palm and pushed hard against Ji Yaohua’s back.

However, despite all his effort, he couldn’t push him away.

He raised his eyes in shock to look at Ji Yaohua, only to find a smirk playing on Ji Yaohua’s lips with a trace of blood, as he looked at him coldly. ”Trying to push me away and stay behind to play hero? Dream on!”

”You!” Ying Ze trembled with anger.

He hadn’t expected Ji Yaohua to see through his plan and rather take a heavy hit and injure himself than abandon him.

”Brother, I’m begging you, don’t try any more tricks. Your brother here can’t hold on much longer.” Ji Yaohua flashed him a bright smile.

Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of green in the far distance from the corner of his eye. His eyes darkened, and he sped up again, dashing forward like the wind.

Frenetically exhausting his spiritual power, the innate Wind Spirit Root within him spun rapidly, emitting a greenish glow.

Ji Yaohua’s legs grew weak from running, so heavy that he could barely lift them.

His whole body was overcome with fatigue, with drowsiness setting in, as if he might fall asleep at any moment.

Ying Ze suddenly felt a weight, noticing Ji Yaohua’s hands loosening their grip on him. Eyes wide open, he shouted at him, ”Ji Yaohua! Wake up!”

Ji Yaohua jerked awake, forcing himself to stay alert.

”If you’re tired, just rest,” Ying Ze said to him.

Ji Yaohua, however, shook his head vigorously, ”No! We haven’t completely shaken off those monsters yet!”

”You’ve already reached your limit!” Ying Ze reminded him.

Ji Yaohua chuckled, ”My limit? Not even close!” With that, he took a deep breath and accelerated again.

At this point, he was completely spent.

However, right then, the innate Wind Spirit Root inside him suddenly sprinkled some light spots, which seeped into his body. Instantly, Ji Yaohua felt light and rejuvenated, effortlessly carrying Ying Ze as they ran.

Ying Ze sensed Ji Yaohua’s change.

He looked at Ji Yaohua in astonishment, only to meet with his playful expression. ”Seems like even in misfortune, there’s fortune for this Young Master!”

With that, he sped up again with Ying Ze, and the green-skinned monsters could no longer be seen behind them.

...

Xi Qianxue woke up to find a red cloak covering her.

Without thinking, she knew whose coat it was. Because it still held the scent of Mu Qingge.

Not far from her, a campfire burned, its flames dispelling the cold around her.

By now, Xi Qianxue felt no discomfort in her body, knowing it was because Mu Qingge had tended to her injuries. She lifted her gaze and saw Mu Qingge standing outside, with her back to her.

At this moment, they were surrounded by black stone mountains, and she rested against one. Mu Qingge had chosen this spot, where thin black stones formed a circle, leaving only an opening. Mu Qingge stood outside that opening while Xi Qianxue sat inside.

Above, the sky was still oppressively grey.

Xi Qianxue slowly pulled back the cloak covering her, revealing her tattered snow robe.

”You’re awake? Change clothes; I won’t peek.” Suddenly, Mu Qingge’s voice startled Xi Qianxue.

She looked over and found Mu Qingge remained in the same position without turning back.

The reassurance warmed Xi Qianxue’s heart.

In fact, with Mu Qingge standing guard, she wasn’t really worried about anything.

”Okay,” she replied, taking out the change of clothes and started changing. Throughout the process, she had no worries, nor did she sneak a glance to see if Mu Qingge might suddenly turn around.

It wasn’t because she didn’t care but because she trusted Mu Qingge’s words.

After a while, she tightened the belt at her waist and stood up, saying to Mu Qingge, ”I’m done.”

Upon hearing this, Mu Qingge turned around, her clear eyes looking at Xi Qianxue.

Under her gaze, Xi Qianxue felt uneasy, glancing down at her dress, and not finding anything inappropriate. She then raised her head to ask Mu Qingge, ”What’s wrong?”
