Zeng Lao, who was also a ninth-level soul engineer and had a ninth-level flying soul guide, drove the White Tiger Duke towards Huo Yuhao and the two at high speed.
However, even the White Tiger Duke does not have a ninth-level flying soul guide, and it is even less likely that his subordinates have one. Their speed is much slower than Zeng and Lao, but with the two people in front of them guiding them, they can't. Can't be lost.
What's more, in order for them to catch up with him as soon as possible, Mr. Zeng also left them an eighth-level flying soul guide. Among the people brought by the White Tiger Duke, there were people with Soul Douluo cultivation who could control the eighth level. Flying soul guide.
"Mr. Ma, are you okay?"
Huo Yuhao, who was riding along with him, was shocked when he saw Mr. Ma's face turned pale and even his body was shaking slightly. What happened to Mr. Ma? The enemy didn't attack them at all.
"The consumption of level 9 fixed soul-guided artillery shells is too great. With my level of cultivation, I won't be able to recover for a while."
Mr. Ma said with difficulty while trying to maintain the speed of the ninth-level flying soul guide.
Mr. Ma's cultivation level can only barely reach that of a Titled Douluo, but his identity as a ninth-level soul master makes him more important than an ordinary titled Douluo. Using a ninth-level fixed soul cannonball is really draining on him. too big.
If they were in the home camp, this consumption would naturally be nothing. They could recover with a simple rest. However, now that they had been exposed, they had no time to rest, so Mr. Ma's fatigue seemed a bit serious.
"Mr. Ma, please take a rest first. I will control the soul guide. I can recover as much as possible."
Huo Yuhao said hurriedly.
They must not stop, otherwise they will be dead.
"No, your soul power won't last long, and if you operate the soul guide, the speed will slow down, which is absolutely impossible. I can hold on for a while, and when I get rid of the minions behind me, I'll do it Stop those two titled Douluo and seize the opportunity to escape."
Mr. Ma rejected Huo Yuhao's suggestion without hesitation and gave another option.
"Mr. Ma, how is this possible? If you stay, wouldn't it be..."
Huo Yuhao was shocked and didn't say the next words.
"It's okay, Yuhao. The moment I decided to use the ninth-level fixed soul-guided artillery shell, I actually thought it would come to this point. Being able to complete the mission is the best ending."
Mr. Ma said.
"Mr. Ma, I didn't expect it to be like this. It would have been better if you had used level eight fixed soul-guided shells. I shouldn't have suggested that you use level nine."
Huo Yuhao said regretfully that he really didn't know that Mr. Ma would be so reluctant to use the ninth-level fixed soul-guided cannon. If he had known earlier, he would never have made this suggestion.
"Yuhao, there's no need to blame yourself. Even if you didn't tell me, I would have chosen to use the ninth-level fixed soul guide shell. If he was a powerful ninth-level soul engineer, he would still be able to block the eighth-level one. To ensure nothing goes wrong, level nine is a must.”
Mr. Ma comforted Huo Yuhao.
"My strength is still not enough, so I can only do this for the empire."
"But you are different, Yuhao. You are the person that the hall master values. You will definitely be able to exceed the upper limit of the Sun and Moon Empire in the future. Unfortunately, I can't see the day when you lead the Sun and Moon Empire to prosperity."
….
Then, before Huo Yuhao could speak, Mr. Ma sighed with a little sadness, but more importantly, he was determined to die calmly.
"Mr. Ma..."
Huo Yuhao's voice was choked with sobs. Mr. Ma's loyalty to the sun and the moon and his love for himself made him unable to control himself.
Seeing this, Mr. Ma didn't say anything more. After looking at Huo Yuhao and smiling, he stared firmly ahead. The Zeng Lao and White Tiger Dukes behind him were slowly approaching him.
"Yuhao, it's time. If I keep flying, my soul power won't be able to support me in fighting. By then, you won't be able to run very far, so hurry up and leave."
Not long after flying again, Mr. Ma suddenly spoke, signaling to Huo Yuhao that he was going to stop and asked him to leave quickly.
Although Huo Yuhao is an emotional person, he will never hesitate at critical moments. Before leaving, he took a deep look at Mr. Ma and boarded his seventh-level flying soul guide without looking back. Go away.
Ma Lao's sacrifice was to keep him alive, and only by living can he avenge Ma Lao and protect the interests of the empire that Ma Lao would rather die to protect.
Mr. Ma looked at Huo Yuhao's retreating back and felt somewhat comforted. These young people were the future of the empire. If he could do anything for them at the last moment, Mr. Ma would be considered a worthy death.
After Huo Yuhao left, Mr. Ma quietly stopped where he was, trying his best to recover some of his soul power, hoping to prolong the battle longer and buy Huo Yuhao enough time to escape.
But Mr. Zeng didn't leave much space for him, and he quickly caught up with Mr. Ma who had stopped.
"Can't run anymore?"
Zeng Lao raised his eyes and said with a hint of ridicule.
"I'm curious, who are you and why are you betraying the interests of the empire?"
Mr. Ma asked angrily with sharp eyes.
"You don't need to know, but you want to stay to block us and let that kid run back to report the news? Humph, it's not that easy!"
Zeng Lao naturally saw Huo Yuhao running away alone, and he said disdainfully.
Mr. Ma didn't reply. The other party was so confident that he was a little worried about Huo Yuhao's safety.
"action!"
Mr. Zeng shouted loudly, and the figure of the White Tiger Duke jumped out instantly. His goal was not to attack Mr. Ma, but to get past his obstruction and pursue Huo Yuhao.
Ma Lao's eyes narrowed, and he raised his hand and fired a terrifying soul-guided cannonball to push the White Tiger Duke back.
But at the same time, another flying soul tool passed through Mr. Ma and chased Huo Yuhao.
And Mr. Ma, who was already suffering a lot of losses, couldn't stop him even if he wanted to, because Mr. Zeng also took action, and a highly penetrating soul ray shot towards Mr. Ma's head. He could only raise his shield. Resist, otherwise your life will be in danger.
"I wonder if another little mouse can escape the pursuit of a Contra and two Soul Saints?"
The repulsed Duke White Tiger said from the side.
The ones chasing after them were Soul Douluo belonging to the Star Luo Empire, riding on the eighth-level flying soul guide that Mr. Zeng threw to them.
The distance that Mr. Ma and the others escaped was not far. Although they left behind those low-level soul masters, they could not escape far behind the eighth-level flying soul guides.
"mean."
Mr. Ma was extremely worried. Huo Yuhao was just a Soul King. If he was really caught up, it would be a disaster.
"You should take care of yourself first. You ruined our plan. Have you figured out how to die?"
However, Mr. Ma had no time to take care of Huo Yuhao at this time. In front of him, there was a ninth-level soul mentor who was not weaker than him and a titled Douluo with a top-level beast martial spirit.
