The oil-drained body fell from the cliff, as light as a fluffy feather. His life was about to perish, and the Great Elder no longer regretted it. With his eyes blurred, he seemed to see the figure of Long Tao...
"Great Elder!!"
With a shout, Long Hao and others arrived at just the right time. They rushed over at the moment when the great elder was falling, and worked together to save the life that was in danger.
Although the Great Elder was firmly caught by Long Hao and others, he was also seriously injured. Coupled with the body that was already a broken candle in the wind, this time it was just a moment longer.
On the top of the cliff, looking at Long Hao and others returning to the sect, their eyes gradually became cruel.
Long Hao was almost completely unaware of the current situation and was quite shocked by the sudden appearance of the great elder. But seeing the great elder being severely injured, they also knew that something big must have happened above.
The great elder breathed a sigh of relief, as if he still had something to say, but he still hesitated. Long Hao and others clearly prioritized and after settling the great elders, they decided to take back the sect first.
It is difficult to besiege from the back mountain at this moment. The only option is to attack by force from the stone steps of the cliff. Long Hao was cautious, but before he could give the order, several enthusiastic disciples had already taken the lead and rushed towards the stone steps with shouts.
Long Xiao, who was on the mountain, had known that they would immediately choose to attack the mountain, and ordered the remaining disciples to guard the front and rear passages, guarding the top and bottom, and taking advantage of the terrain to compete with them.
Those disciples who rushed up the stone steps had not climbed halfway up when they suddenly saw huge rocks rolling down from above, coming directly from the narrow stone steps. They had nowhere to dodge, and most of them were crushed to death by rocks before they could react, with blood spraying everywhere.
Seeing such a tragic situation, Long Hao immediately ordered all his disciples to stop attacking. They reunited under the cliff and planned a more secure attack.
However, Long Xiao had no intention of stopping just yet. Just when no one at the foot of the mountain made any move, they suddenly saw fire arrows all over the sky, shooting down from the top of the cliff!
"Not good!" Long Hao was shocked.
There were a large number of flying arrows, carrying a raging rain of fire, threatening death instantly.
There was no way to avoid it, and the arrows swarmed down in an instant. A group of disciples carried halberds to resist, but after all, rockets penetrated the defense, stabbing or burning. The disciples accompanying Long Hao were immediately confused.
Seeing that his own people were about to be ruined, Long Hao felt even more anxious. In the blink of an eye, he suddenly realized that the great elder lying on the boulder behind him was unprotected and in danger!
Several rockets flew down, pouring in no direction. Long Hao suddenly saw a few arrows shooting towards the great elder. He couldn't care about anything else, so he jumped up and stepped forward!
With a "pop" sound, Ji Feng deflected three random arrows, but unexpectedly a stray arrow struck behind him, mixed with scorching heat, and penetrated Long Hao's chest.
Blood splashed into the still wet soil, and Long Hao fell to his knees weakly. After staggering two steps, he continued to support himself in the direction of the great elder, and finally used his body to support himself in front of the great elder.
The only thought in his heart was to protect the elder, but Long Hao's back was instantly stabbed into a hornet's nest by the rain of arrows. The burning flames scorched his body, and he endured the severe pain and tore off his shirt, but the heartbreaking pain continued to severely damage his nerves in turn.
The great elder slowly opened his eyes, and tears burst into his eyes when he saw Long Hao dying in front of him to protect himself.
"You..." He tried to raise his hand to touch Long Hao's red face, but he was already unable to do so. He could only watch Long Hao's death and let the grief spread in his heart.
Long Hao was already on the verge of coma, but his body still maintained its original appearance, with strong bones.
When he heard the great elder calling him, he reluctantly opened his eyes and squeezed out a twisted smile: "Long Ji... Disciple Long... Hao, welcome, the great elder returns to the sect..."
The great elder was extremely sad. The child in front of him was someone he watched grow up little by little. Although his talent is not good, Long Hao is honest and loyal by nature, and he puts morality first.
Earlier, he was focused on cultivating Longji's future talents, but he neglected to care for the child. However, up to now, he was still willing to sacrifice his life to protect himself, who was dying in an instant. This made the great elder burst into tears. The regret and sorrow in his heart suddenly collapsed and burst into tears.
Long Hao may no longer be able to see the great elder's expression. He persisted in that posture until his death, as if he were a kneeling sheep feeding back milk, as if cast from iron.
"You...sleep peacefully."
The great elder felt that his energy began to fade away, and all the scenes in front of him began to spin and become blurry. Saying this sentence consumed his last bit of energy, and at this moment, he seemed to be preparing to embark on his own end.
Fire rained from all directions, and arrow light flowed. However, the two people in the intensive offensive passed away quietly, as if they were two worlds apart.
The remaining disciples present were horrified when they saw Long Hao and the Great Elder dying one after another.
Above, Long Xiao and others had exhausted the sect's saved bows and arrows, and their offensive was showing signs of fatigue, and they were preparing to find other ways to defend.
At this moment, a large group of people, headed by Long Tao, finally arrived for help!
Seeing such a miserable situation at the foot of the mountain, Long Tao was extremely angry. Regardless of his own injuries, he forcibly waved his halberd again and rushed into the final shower of rockets.
The halberd whirled like the wind, and Long Tao's figure was unpredictable. He floated like a dragon in the crowd and rescued many injured disciples in a short time.
At the same moment, he also saw the tragic remains of the great elder and senior brother.
