Just when everyone was in despair, a large amount of black blood suddenly overflowed from Jiu Ge's lips. She tried to open her eyes, looked at the people around her, and said weakly: "Brothers, don't... don't worry about me, Master, Master and Uncle Zongzheng hasn’t come back yet... You... you hurry up and find them..."
"Little Junior Sister, please stop talking, we will go and find Master..." Helian Yuanjie promised with tears streaming down his face.
"Cough...cough..." Jiuge coughed a few more mouthfuls of black blood, then slowly closed his eyes and fainted completely.
"Little Junior Sister! Little Junior Sister!"
"Girl Jiuge!!"
Everyone shouted in panic, but no matter how they shouted, Jiu Ge did not open his eyes again.
…
On the other side, the entrance to the snowy forest.
With the joint efforts of Helian Wenyan and Zong Zhengheng, the man in black robe was finally defeated.
At the last moment, the two of them worked together to kill him with their swords.
"Master Helian, we have to go back quickly. The man in black clothes has been gone for more than an hour. I'm worried that our people can't handle him." Zong Zhengheng said in a deep voice.
Helian Wenyan nodded and was about to leave with Zong Zhengheng.
Suddenly, his steps stopped, and he turned his head to look into the distance, his brows furrowed slightly, and a trace of solemnity appeared on his face.
Sensing something unusual about him, Zong Zhengheng asked, "Master Helian, what's wrong?"
"It's nothing, I just felt like someone was watching us secretly just now..." Helian Wenyan frowned.
"Is there any?" Zong Zhengheng glanced around a few times, but didn't find anything strange. "Without further delay, let's leave quickly!"
"Yeah." Helian Wenyan didn't say anything more, and quickly used sword control skills with Zong Zhengheng, and flew deep into the forest.
…
Half an hour later, the two figures appeared above the snowy forest.
At a glance, Helian Wenyan saw Jiuge lying unconscious in Helian Yuanjie's arms on the ground. Her expression was extremely painful, and there was a pool of blood beside her.
Helian Wenyan's heart tightened, and his body quickly swept down towards the ground.
"It's Master, Master is back!!!" Qin Yuxuan shouted loudly.
Helian Wenyan flew down next to everyone, and then rushed towards Jiuge anxiously, "What's wrong with Jiuge girl? She was fine before..."
"Master, you are finally back!!" Zhao Feiyang grabbed Helian Wenyan's arm and said urgently, "Little Junior Sister, Little Junior Sister is dying! Please save her quickly!! Save her quickly!!"
Hearing Zhao Feiyang's words, Helian Wenyan's expression suddenly changed, and he quickly raised his hand to place his hand on Jiuge's pulse.
Soon, his expression became increasingly ugly.
Because he discovered that not only was Jiu Ge's breath disordered, but even his life energy seemed to be disappearing...
"How could this happen??!!" Helian Wenyan's eyes widened in shock, "What happened?"
Zhao Feiyang endured his grief and told Helian Wenyan the whole story, "...Thanks to this fairy for saving me just now, otherwise, all of us would have been in misfortune now, but... it's just... Junior sister, she..." At the end of the sentence, Zhao Feiyang was already crying.
Before Helian Wenyan came back, they had tried various methods, but they still could not relieve Jiu Ge's pain.
"Dad, it's useless for me. I didn't protect my little junior sister. I just held her hand and ran away. I didn't even notice that the soul-eating Gu Emperor was already targeting her." Helian Yuanjie's eyes stayed on Jiu Ge's eyes were filled with deep guilt.
"Now is not the time to blame anyone. The most important thing now is to rescue Jiuge girl!" Helian Wenyan said in a deep voice.
He knew that once the soul-eating Gu entered the body, if it was not removed in time, it would corrode the host's body, turning the host into a puppet at worst, and killing the host directly at worst.
"Master, what should we do? This place is two full days away from Zixu City. I'm worried that Junior Sister Jiuge's body won't last that long." Qin Yuxuan asked worriedly.
"If we can't find a way to save her, what if we go back to Zixu Academy? We're still waiting to die!" Before Helian Wenyan could speak, Zi Moxi suddenly spoke lightly.
After listening to her words, everyone's mood fell to the bottom again.
"Fairy... is there really no other way?" Zhao Feiyang asked unwillingly with red eyes.
Zi Moxi shook her head lightly, "My cultivation is limited, and the only thing I can do is to suppress the soul-eating Gu Emperor for her to prevent it from devouring her consciousness, but this cannot stop the insect from spreading in her body."
Hearing this, everyone present lowered their heads sadly.
"Oh, what a good girl..." Zong Yuan couldn't help but sigh.
"Can we just watch our little junior sister die?" Zhao Feiyang gritted his teeth and growled.
"No... no, we have to save her, no matter what the cost, we have to save her..." Helian Yuanjie shouted excitedly.
After hearing what these people said, Qin Yuxuan frowned and looked at Helian Wenyan again: "Master, it's up to you to make the decision."
Helian Wenyan closed his eyes and sighed, "Since there is no other way for the time being, let's do what this fairy said first!"
"But master... what if... what if the soul-eating Gu Emperor swallows up the little junior sister's life..." Zhao Feiyang choked.
Helian Wenyan shook his head and did not answer.
Why isn't he worried about this?
But at the moment, apart from this method, I can't think of any better method.
Jiuge was his most valued disciple, so he naturally would not allow her to die in front of his eyes.
"Master Helian..." At this moment, Zong Zhengheng suddenly spoke, "Aren't we going to the Beihai Icefield? If we can meet the legendary divine king in the Beihai Icefield, will Miss Jiuge... Is there any help?"
"Yes! Master, we might as well try our luck in the North Sea Icefield." Zhao Feiyang said quickly.
Helian Wenyan frowned with a complicated expression, "Well...I also have this concern, but everything in the North Sea Icefield is unknown and extremely dangerous. With Jiuge Girl's current condition, she simply cannot sustain it for long. I'm worried she……"
Although Jiuge was his disciple, Helian Wenyan did not dare to make a rash decision now that his life was at stake.
"Master...Master..."
At this moment, Jiuge woke up from his coma, moaning weakly.
"Girl Jiuge, how are you feeling?" Helian Wenyan quickly squatted down to support Jiuge's body and asked.
Jiuge reluctantly shook his head, "Master, don't worry, I'm fine..."
Looking at Jiu Ge's pale and haggard appearance, Helian Wenyan couldn't say a word in sadness. They had only been separated for two or three hours, and his originally lively beloved disciple had become like this.
"She is really a strong girl..." Zi Moxi walked up and said with emotion, "If an ordinary person had been infected by the soul-eating Gu, they would have been exhausted by the pain, and even collapsed and committed suicide, but she survived. ”
Hearing this, Jiu Ge turned to look at Zi Moxi who was standing in front of her. Although she didn't know who the other person was or where he came from, the appearance of this woman did save everyone present.
"Fairy, just now... thank you..." Jiuge managed a smile.
"Girl, there's no need to say thank you. It's just a small effort." Zi Moxi said lightly, "By the way, you should stop calling me fairy. I am not from the heaven, and I am not practicing the immortal way or the divine way. My name is Mo Xi. If you If you don’t mind, you can call me Mrs. Mo Xi.”
Hearing this, Helian Yuanjie immediately stood up, cupped his hands towards Zi Moxi, and said: "Mrs. Moxi, please cast a spell to help my junior sister so that the soul-eating Gu does not control her consciousness... We will think about it later. Find a way to bring her to the North Sea Icefield..."
"Well, I'll try my best." Zi Moxi nodded slightly.
After finishing speaking, she stretched out her palm and placed it on Jiu Ge's forehead, and then closed her eyes slightly.
After a moment, Zi Moxi's brows suddenly frowned, and her face gradually became serious.
Seeing Zi Moxi's expression, Helian Wenyan's heart suddenly thumped, and he quickly said: "Mrs. Moxi, what's wrong with this girl?"
"This girl's soul is extraordinary. No wonder the soul-eating Gu Emperor fell in love with her." Zi Moxi said as if talking to himself.
"Mrs. Mo Xi, what do you mean by this?" Helian Wenyan asked with a frown.
"The soul-eating Gu worm is the most poisonous thing in the world. Its appearance is to seize life and suck the host's soul and flesh and blood to enhance its own strength. If the soul-eating Gu worm occupies all the host's soul, then the host will basically We can only wait for death, but this girl's soul is very powerful, and I feel that the soul-eating Gu Emperor hasn't found the opportunity to strike yet." Zi Moxi slowly explained.
"Mrs. Mo Xi, is there any way to drive that soul-eating Gu out of her body now?" Zhao Feiyang couldn't help but interjected.
Zi Moxi shook his head, "I can't think of any suitable way... If I forcefully use my spiritual power to expel the soul-eating Gu, I'm worried that it will resist. If pressed, it will most likely eat the soul-eating Gu." All the girl’s internal organs except her soul, by then, she will only die faster than now!”
"Alas!" Helian Wenyan didn't want to face this result, so he simply stood up and turned his back, clenched his hands into fists, and stopped talking.
"Since there is no other way, we can only take her to the North Sea Icefield." Qin Yuxuan said in a deep voice.
"But the North Sea Icefield is still five thousand miles away from here. Even if we travel day and night, it will take at least five days to get there." Zhao Feiyang said with a sad face, "Besides, with the current situation of the junior sister, it is impossible to use the sword control technique. "
"You can leave this matter to me. I will use the teleportation circle to send you to the North Sea Icefield." Zi Moxi said.
"Mrs. Mo Xi, are you telling the truth? Can you really use the teleportation circle to send us there?" After hearing Zi Mo Xi's words, everyone around them looked surprised.
"Yes." Zi Moxi nodded, "However, the most I can do is send you to the border of the North Sea ice field. It may take some time to enter the depths of the ice field from the border of the ice field. You can only rely on yourself for this. After all, I don't want to go with you. There are too many people in heaven to have contact with.”
"Thank...Thank you, Mrs. Mo Xi!!" Qin Yuxuan quickly clasped his fists and said gratefully. Although he didn't know where Zi Mo Xi came from, it was enough that she was willing to help.
