Water vapor began to fill the air, and Jiang Fengqing felt a little dampness on the tip of her nose.
Jiang Fengqing raised his head and looked at the sky, only to see tens of thousands of raindrops falling, as if ten thousand sharp swords were about to penetrate his body.
Chen Dong stopped. After feeling the heavy rain, he seemed to have thought of something. He turned around and looked at Zhou Ruoxiao, who was suffering from the flames. He saw that the pillar of fire above his head had been extinguished by less than half.
"Hahaha, look! Even God is helping me! I, Zhou Ruoxiao, will not die like this. You lose! You lose! Hahahaha! I am the winner!" He was already dead in the fire. Zhou Ruoxiao laughed loudly at this moment.
It was hard to imagine that this figure, whose body was completely blackened by flames, could still laugh like this.
"This rain seems to be timely." Chen Dong said slowly.
All the ministers bowed their heads and remained silent. If someone accidentally offends Jiang Fengqing in front of him with a word at this time, who knows what this young man who is about to reach the end of his rope will do.
Moreover, no one expected that the death flames that had caused countless warriors headaches for countless years would actually be restrained by the rain.
Judging from this trend, I'm afraid it won't take more than a quarter of an hour for Zhou Ruoxiao to completely get rid of the shackles of the Death Flame.
However, it is still unclear whether Zhou Ruoxiao can sweep all directions when he comes out.
Because no one can tell whether the unfathomable Lin Tianyou has any hidden back-up plan.
It was raining heavily.
Jiang Fengqing picked up the Human Emperor Sword in her hand and quietly watched the water splashing on the sword from the rain.
Lin Tianyou quickly walked behind him, looked at his back and said, "It's time for me to go."
Jiang Fengqing nodded slightly.
Behind them, the originally powerful pillar of fire was now like a thatched house riddled with holes and might collapse at any time under the heavy downpour.
Lin Tianyou had just taken two steps and when he saw Jiang Fengqing was motionless, he turned to look at him and said, "You should be able to come with me along the way. This was agreed upon before."
Lin Tianyou looked at Jiang Fengqing doubtfully, as if he couldn't understand why he didn't leave.
Jiang Fengqing raised his head and let the countless rain wash over his face, but the look of enjoyment on his face seemed to be bathed in the warm winter sun.
After a while, Lin Tianyou seemed to be impatient with waiting, so he walked away.
Jiang Fengqing followed Lin Tianyou unhurriedly, leaving the ministers at the same place not knowing where to go.
Facing Zhou Ruoxiao who was like a wild beast out of the cage, Lin Tianyou finally gave in. Even though Zhou Ruoxiao had been seriously injured by the Burial Flame, Lin Tianyou's condition had dropped to freezing point. He had used himself to suppress the ancient demon before. The Gu insects secretly planted on the ancient demon held up the scene.
In fact, Lin Tianyou was already at the end of his strength. Even if he picked out any minister at random, he would probably be able to kill him.
So he chose to withdraw.
"We have lost all our chips, so it's time to end the gambling game and go home to sleep." Lin Tianyou laughed heartily and walked towards the forest, where there were faint figures moving in the forest.
Jiang Fengqing hesitated for a moment, looked back, and then followed.
Chen Dong quietly watched Jiang Fengqing disappear into the forest, and then heard two horses neighing.
Chen Dong stroked his tattered and dirty gown and knelt down.
"Best farewell to my emperor. Long live my emperor! Long live my emperor!"
All the ministers on the side also knelt down and echoed in unison.
This sound echoed on Luofeng Slope.
It also reached the ears of Jiang Fengqing and Lin Tianyou who had not yet run far away.
Jiang Fengqing just lowered her head and glanced at the Human Emperor Sword tightly held in her hand, then continued to look forward.
In the dark and humid forest, on the winding and rugged path, I don’t know whether it was the rain falling from the sky that hit my eyes, or the mud splashed under the horses’ hooves.
Jiang Fengqing's eyes were already moist and red.
"The bamboo stick and mango shoes are better than the horse. Who is afraid? You can live your whole life in the misty rain!"
Lin Tianyou's words revealed a sense of vicissitudes of life, like the sigh of a great hero in his twilight years.
"Haha, good words, good words! Boss Lin has made such good words, why don't you come back quickly, sit down, make a pot of wine with me, and slowly appreciate it!"
The pillar of fire disappeared completely, and Zhou Ruoxiao, who was covered in charcoal, slowly walked out.
As his body swayed with every step he took, pieces of charred and scabbed skin would peel off, revealing the pink muscles and blood vessels inside.
"Haha, you are in such a hurry to leave... Why don't you stay and play with me for a while? It seems I have to go and invite you in person!" Zhou Ruoxiao said with a sneer.
The next moment, his body shot out like a sharp arrow, rushing towards the mountain forest where Jiang Fengqing and Lin Tianyou disappeared.
Although there was some light on the horizon, the leaves were piled up in layers, still blocking most of the morning light, and the forest was still as dark as night.
The messy horse hooves trampled the raindrops on the muddy ground.
Zhou Ruoxiao slowed down and walked barefoot on the path.
I don't know if it's the change in light or the strangeness of the trees themselves, but a human face seems to be vaguely visible on the trunks of the surrounding trees. In the dim light, it looks particularly weird and terrifying.
Just when Zhou Ruoxiao wanted to get close to a big tree and take a closer look at the human face on the trunk, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a black shadow that seemed to be moving behind the tree.
He took a closer look and saw the towering tree slowly stretching out a hand under its roots exposed on the ground.
On this hand, countless black ants were crawling on it. As the hand slowly stretched out from the ground, some ants fell to the ground and dissipated directly into a small piece of black mist, eroding the ground into small holes.
The five fingers of this hand swayed slightly, and then stretched upward, as if they wanted to come out of the ground.
If ordinary people saw this scene, they would probably be scared to death, but Zhou Ruoxiao was not an ordinary person.
He walked directly to the hand and said loudly to it, "Aren't the deacons of your God of Wealth Hall afraid of death?"
After saying that, Zhou Ruoxiao reached out and grabbed the hand, and lifted it up suddenly.
"Since you figured it out, I'll help you!"
A figure covered in black ants was pulled out of the earth by Zhou Ruoxiao.
Without waiting for the figure to make any move, Zhou Ruoxiao punched the figure in the back.
The figure groaned, and his body began to tremble crazily at a strange frequency.
Thousands of ants flew out from the figure and rushed towards Zhou Ruoxiao.
Zhou Ruoxiao sneered and waved his hand.
Countless ants were instantly destroyed by his blow and turned into balls of black mist.
The overwhelming ant tide turned into a sea of black mist, surrounding Zhou Ruoxiao.
Taking advantage of Zhou Ruoxiao's attention on the ant tide, the figure hid directly in the black mist and disappeared.
"Prince Zhou, stop here!"
A voice came from in front of Zhou Ruoxiao. Zhou Ruoxiao followed the sound, but he couldn't see clearly what was happening in the black mist.
"These ants are made by soaking them in the juice of more than ten kinds of extremely poisonous herbs for three days and three nights. Even if you get a little bit of them, I'm afraid you won't feel well."
A voice came from behind Zhou Ruoxiao again.
Zhou Ruoxiao couldn't help but frown. He had extraordinary experience and could naturally see that these poisonous mist were extraordinary. Even he didn't want to experience it personally.
He casually hit the poisonous mist with two palms, and the wind of his palms stirred up air waves. Except for the sound of leaves crackling, the dense poisonous mist made no movement at all.
"No need to waste your efforts, Prince Zhou! As long as you wait where you are for an hour, these poisonous mist will naturally dissipate."
This voice seemed to be everywhere, coming faintly from another direction of the poisonous fog.
Zhou Ruoxiao's ears twitched slightly, Xun Sheng raised his hand and hit him with a burst of energy.
A muffled groan came from the poisonous mist, and Zhou Ruoxiao struck with another palm energy.
However, this palm strike was in vain. It was obvious that the people in the poisonous mist were not just ordinary people.
"Your Excellency's skills don't seem to be from the God of Wealth Hall." Zhou Ruoxiao said with a smile.
But this time, the people in the poisonous mist seemed to be very afraid of his ability to identify the location by listening to sounds. They did not speak out immediately, but began to patrol around in the poisonous mist and make sounds at the same time.
"Oh, where did Prince Zhou start talking about this?"
The sound sounded like it was coming from every corner of the poisonous fog.
"Haha, those deacons at the God of Wealth Hall are just embroidered pillows piled on top of pills. Their cultivation is just for show. If they really take it out, I can crush them to death with one finger. But you don't Same……"
Zhou Ruoxiao's voice gradually became inaudible, and the people in the poisonous mist couldn't help but stop, holding their breath and trying to hear clearly.
However, after a while, the forest became quiet and no sound could be heard.
The person in the poisonous mist suddenly became panicked. He carefully stood in a corner of the poisonous mist and looked towards where Zhou Ruoxiao was standing.
But there was no figure of Zhou Ruoxiao there. When he looked carefully, he saw Zhou Ruoxiao standing in the sky with a smile on his face.
It turns out that no matter how big the poisonous mist is, it cannot cover the entire forest.
Moreover, when the air waves stirred by Zhou Ruoxiao's two palms were blowing the leaves, he noticed that when a few beams of light penetrated the gaps in the leaves and absorbed the poisonous mist, the poisonous mist in that piece instantly dissipated.
So Zhou Ruoxiao directly rushed upward with all his strength.
As he expected, the poisonous mist above was indeed weak.
However, the poisonous mist also surprised him. His internal energy barrier was almost eroded by the poisonous mist.
He had no doubt that if he had chosen to rush in another direction, he would have been poisoned by this time.
Zhou Ruoxiao has never been a generous person, at least not to those who brought him trouble.
"So, have you chosen how to die?" Zhou Ruoxiao said with a smile.
Now that he was free from the shackles of the poisonous mist, he had taken the initiative. Whether he wanted to stay or go could be decided by his thoughts.
"Haha, please don't blame me, Prince Zhou. I just wanted to repay Lin Tianyou a favor, so I stopped him."
An old man with a green body walked out of the poisonous fog, "However, I am quite stubborn. Since I promised him to stop you for an hour, I have to do it!"
"Do you have any other tricks?" Zhou Ruoxiao spread his hands and looked at the old man curiously.
Not long after, Zhou Ruoxiao picked up a handful of leaves and wiped the green blood on his hands, then threw it towards the old man's body lying quietly on the ground.
A big hole opened in the old man's belly, which was filled with the corpses of countless ants.
A leaf fell, covering the old man's eyes before he could close them.
"It's really troublesome, Lin Tianyou, I don't know what kind of trouble you can bring to me? But this time, heaven can't bless you!"
Zhou Ruoxiao continued walking deeper into the forest, leaving a series of deep footprints on the muddy ground.
