It was a pair of black and white pupils, with a ponytail swinging around. The girl's face was plain and slightly red, her cherry mouth was tightly closed, as if she had used great strength, and she was holding a cyan thin sword in her slender hand. .
At this moment, Ji Ning was stunned.
He looked at the girl in front of him, never expecting that in this sparsely populated place, there would be someone like him waiting here.
The two big demons had just decided the winner. They both jumped out almost at the same time. At this moment, they were only one step away from getting the blood Ganoderma lucidum.
The two looked at each other briefly in the air, and then reached out to grab the Ganoderma lucidum at the same time.
Phew!
Suddenly, a shrill cry rang out from the ground behind, and amidst the overwhelming smoke and dust, the black nine-clawed eagle demon rushed over like an arrow from a string.
It won the battle, but the fruits of victory that should have belonged to him were about to be snatched away!
"mine!"
Ji Ning used all his strength to grab the root of the Blood Ganoderma one step ahead of the girl!
But the girl followed closely and held his hand.
One after another, not willing to give in at all!
At this moment, Ji Ning gritted his teeth and wanted to raise his leg to kick the girl away, but the latter took action before him and hit his chest with the hilt of the sword. The terrifying force knocked him back several meters, and he had no choice but to let go. When he opened his hand, he fell far away.
At the same time, the girl swung her sword again, and the green sword energy blew past Ji Ning's ears like a whirlwind, slashing straight at the attacking hawk demon!
However, the latter staggered in the air, his wings contracted and hovered, and he actually dodged the sword energy and came to attack him!
Boom!
The girl blocked with her horizontal sword, and her body was instantly knocked dozens of feet away. Just when she was about to counterattack, the hawk demon used its extremely fast speed to grab the blood Ganoderma lucidum, pluck it away, and then flew up into the sky. It disappeared between the clouds in an instant.
Bang——!
Ji Ning fell heavily to the ground, blood bleeding from the corner of his mouth, and his face turned pale.
Old wounds have not healed, and new wounds have been added.
Looking at the girl with a green sword and braid walking towards him not far away, Ji Ning showed a wry smile. He really can't be greedy. Originally, he only needed to be patient and patient to recover from his injuries, but he had to take the risk to grab this. The blood Ganoderma lucidum, now that the Blood Ganoderma lucidum is gone, I am also exposed.
"It's all your fault for delaying my good deeds!"
Ye Yu's plain little face was slightly red and he said angrily.
She had been crouching against the two big monsters in the dark for a long time. She finally waited for the right moment to take action, but she didn't expect to be beaten first!
Ji Ning was startled when he heard this. Didn't the other party actually recognize him? It seemed like he wasn't here to hunt him down?
"What you said is wrong, girl. It was obviously me who held the Blood Ganoderma first, and it was my hand you held."
Ji Ning swallowed and pretended to be calm.
Ye Yu snorted coldly, gritted his teeth and said:
"I was obviously the one who discovered it first!"
"I have been following these two big monsters for four hours. I was sure to get them, but who would have thought that you would come out halfway!"
"If I didn't want to kill innocent people indiscriminately and let you live, how could I have let the blood Ganoderma disappear?"
"Tell me how you want to compensate me!"
Hearing this, Ji Ning was silent for a moment, then coughed and said:
"When you look at the girl, you will see that she is a lady and a genius in the world of cultivation. There is no shortage of this Blood Ganoderma."
"But I want that thing, it's for life-saving purposes."
"If you hadn't fought with me before, I might have swallowed that thing. That hawk demon is already at the end of its crossbow. I will fight with all my strength, but I may not lose. You are for wealth, and I am for life. What do I have? Is it reasonable to compensate you?"
Ji Ning said, looking at the girl with an extremely serious expression.
Ye Yu on the other side was also questioned by the latter's words.
It was only then that she took a closer look at Ji Ning's face. The thick dark circles under his eyes, his face paler than a white paper, and the blood oozing out of his chest and lower abdomen showed that he had obviously suffered a serious injury. hurt.
"wait."
Ye Yu suppressed the panic in his expression and lowered his body to take Ji Ning's pulse with his green and jade fingers.
A stream of warm spiritual energy was transported into Ji Ning's body along the veins. The internal situation was also explored by Ye Yu, so the girl was instantly shocked and asked:
"Who are you? Why are you so seriously injured!"
When Ji Ning heard this, he pointed at his clothes and said weakly:
"I am not a local from Qingquan County. I passed by here with my team and posted the reward. Unexpectedly, I encountered a monster and got lost in the mountains."
"Originally, I wanted to rely on this blood Ganoderma lucidum to save my life, but now, alas!"
Ji Ning said, putting on a look of pain, covering his chest and lower abdomen, and slowly lay down at the girl's feet.
It was like a young animal that was about to die, very miserable.
Ye Yu's face turned pale.
She has been a person with a strong sense of justice since she was a child, and it became even more so after joining the Xuntian Mansion. Otherwise, her relationship with Chen Ji and others would not be so tense.
And a moment ago, she hit a seriously injured man in the chest with the hilt of her sword, even forcing the former to fail to get the life-saving Blood Ganoderma.
For a time, endless feelings of self-blame flooded into her mind like a tide.
"I...I didn't mean it, I'm sorry!"
The girl knelt down and looked at Ji Ning who was seriously injured and dying. Tears were about to burst out of her eyes. She didn't know what to do for a moment.
"What an innocent woman."
Ji Ning was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the stunning and talented girl in front of him would be so easy to deceive, and she had no doubts about what he said.
"You wait here, I'll help you get the Blood Ganoderma back!"
After channeling some spiritual energy and discovering that it could not reverse the injuries in Ji Ning's body, Ye Yu suddenly stood up, with a determined look on his face, and turned around to pursue the hawk demon.
"Oh, wait!"
Ji Ning looked helpless and said:
"I estimate that the Blood Ganoderma lucidum has been swallowed by the hawk demon at this moment. Your pursuit is in vain."
"And I'm injured. It's really dangerous to stay here alone. How about..."
"Will not."
Before Ji Ning finished speaking, Ye Yu shook his head and said decisively:
"Monsters are different from humans. If you want to absorb the elixir, you need to go through some very tedious steps. Swallowing it directly into your stomach is a waste of natural resources."
"Earlier, I observed the harpy demon's nest, which is located on a barren mountain thirty miles away from here. Although it is a third-level demon, it is seriously injured now and should have no fighting power. I can kill it alone. Behead him."
"As for you, staying here is really not an option. I'm afraid you will encounter other monsters. Why don't you come with me?"
"No no no no no!"
Ji Ning waved his hands hurriedly. He would be able to leave the central region soon, but he didn't want to go back and go back. If he met the previous adventure group again, or some groups who came specifically to hunt for him, it would be a dead end!
"I understand the girl's kindness, but I have not yet entered the first realm and I was seriously injured. This beautiful mountain is too dangerous for me. I'd better leave first. See you later!"
With that said, Ji Ning got up from the ground with a pale face, and then limped away.
However, Ye Yu stepped forward and grabbed his wrist with a cold face.
"no!"
"As a practitioner of Xantian Mansion, my duty is to protect the safety of the people. Moreover, this matter happened because of me, so I naturally have to take responsibility to the end."
"Don't worry, just follow this girl honestly. I promise that you won't be harmed in any way."
Ye Yu walked up to Ji Ning without any explanation, holding the green sword in both hands, slightly raising his chin, signaling for the latter to turn around.
"Xun... Xuntian Mansion?"
Ji Ning's Adam's apple rolled slightly. He had naturally heard of the name of Xantian Mansion. Many years ago, a guest of Xantian Mansion came to the Taoist Temple. For this reason, their handymen did not sleep a wink for three days and three nights. I swept up and down so that not even a speck of dust could be seen, just to leave a good impression on the man who patrolled the sky.
"You are a practitioner from Xantian Mansion, what are you doing here?"
"Same as you, here to arrest someone."
"Capture... Ji Ning?"
"Well, that kid killed someone and took away what our Governor wanted. The whole world is looking for him, but there is no specific whereabouts..." Ye Yu said, suddenly stopped talking, his expression changed. He looked at Ji Ning unkindly and asked:
"Are you leaving or not? If it's any later, the Blood Ganoderma will really be swallowed by the hawk demon!"
"I……"
Ji Ning felt a wry smile in his heart. Now that he knew that the other party was from Xuntian Mansion, how could he dare to stay with him?
"Girl, I really don't want to go. If you are really sorry, why not take me to an outlying area and find a remote hut where I can rest in peace!"
"Stop the ink stains and leave quickly!"
Ye Yu's face turned dark and he couldn't help but grab Ji Ning's shoulders, pulling him towards the depths of Xiushan.
"You have to eat the Blood Ganoderma today, you have to eat it, you have to eat it even if you don't want to eat it!"
