Chapter 174: Swimming Against the Current

The morning light cascades down from the clouds like a golden waterfall, separated by the canopy of ancient trees above the forest, and quietly spills through the gaps in the leaves into the dark forest. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

The breeze rises, and the shadows of the trees sway, mottled and blurred.

The green leaves are dyed with light gold, like thousands of crisp wind chimes swaying gently in the wind.

The girl wore a soft chestnut hair, and ran through the mottled and swaying shadows of the trees, and her clean white dress that blew in the wind sprinkled with the golden spots of the sun, warm and crystalline.

She watched the milk-colored fog that gradually dissipated in the forest ahead, her amber eyes full of vigilance, and her steps were as brisk as a squirrel shuttling through the jungle, sensitive and cautious.

The morning light is faint.

The golden sunlight was hazy and misty, like a long veil of goddesses, falling from the sky above the forest, dispelling all the dampness and gloom.

The milk-colored fog that filled the forest gradually dissipated, and the small white mushrooms at the roots of the ancient trees no longer emitted pale blue fluorescence, and even the treacherous snake vines were gone.

The canopy of the verdant ancient trees rustles in the wind, with a few distant and ethereal bird cries in between.

The whole forest is quiet and tranquil, as if it is completely immersed in honey-colored sunlight, hazy and clear, far from all darkness and cold.

The breeze is shallow, bringing the atmosphere of an ancient and deep forest.

Chestnut hair, dyed with a touch of warm golden sunlight, fell down the cheeks.

Qianling half-squatted behind a stout ancient tree, poked out her head with a few strands of chestnut hair, and stared ahead without blinking.

The breeze flowed, and the milk-colored mist moved with the wind, gradually blurring and clearing, and quietly dissipated, revealing the deep forest of ancient trees.

The sunlight was blurred, spilling into the dense fog that gradually dissipated, and a faint figure appeared in the hazy forest clearing in the distance.

Qianling was stunned, and slowly shrank back to the trunk of the ancient tree, unconsciously holding her breath, and her hands were clenched a little nervously.

That's the Angel Guard?

She guessed correctly......

Well, it shouldn't be just this one......

She cautiously peeked half of her face out from behind the trunk of the tree, and quietly looked around the forest ahead, frowning slightly, trying to find the other figure through the dense fog that drifted and gradually dissipated with the wind.

Odd......?

Qianling frowned, and looked at the figure faintly visible in the mist again, with a little puzzle in her eyes.

This neighborhood seems to be ...... Only this one?

The breeze is blowing, the shadows of the trees are dappled, and the golden rays of the sun dance on the leaves, branches, roots, and the forest clearing covered with green velvet grass, and the whole forest is intertwined with light and shadow, and the whole forest is misty and misty.

The thick fog dissolved into wisps and finally gradually dissipated with the wind.

Quietly appeared, the figure bathed in the misty morning light.

Long hair reaches waist-length, like a waterfall pouring down. The dark and deep hair is rendered in ink, bathed in a faint golden sunlight, like a deep night sky sprinkled with bright golden stars.

The boy stood alone in the quiet and empty forest clearing, his long black hair scattered behind him, smeared with a touch of pale golden sunlight, dancing lightly in the wind. The thin figure stands quietly between the flickering light and shadow, hazy and soft and almost transparent.

Qianling hid behind the tree trunk, looking at the vaguely familiar back from a distance, slightly stunned.

The few strands of chestnut hair on the top of his head shook a few times, and slowly drooped down as if relaxed.

Blinking a little sluggishly, she rubbed her eyes vigorously and shook her head again in disbelief, and looked over again-

It's still the black-haired and black-robed figure.

Moon......?

Qianling looked at him, unblinking, and bit her lip suspiciously.

Why is Satsuki here? or is she alone?

But the light of the daylight just now came from here......

The clear amber eyes reflected the golden sunlight, and the pupils suddenly twitched slightly, and then slowly contracted.

As if she suddenly understood something, Qianling's face changed slightly, and she suddenly came out from behind the trunk.

Probably because her feet were a little numb after squatting for a long time, she stumbled and almost fell, but she didn't have time to catch her breath, quickened her pace and ran towards the forest ahead, her eyes were a little anxious:

"Little ......"

The air twisted and fluctuated in an instant, like a circle of invisible ripples expanding from the direction of the forest in front of them!

This is......

Qianling looked at the front of the ripples that expanded, her pupils trembled slightly, and her face changed again.

Oh!

A low roar suddenly came from behind, the corners of her skirt seemed to be grabbed by something, and her body couldn't move, Qianling was forced to stop and look back in surprise.

The slender tail spines hung down to the ground, swaying low and uneasily.

Chirp bit at the corner of her skirt and pulled her back hard, letting out a warning whine that seemed to stop her from moving forward.

"Xiao Jiu, why did you come here, didn't you say that you should go back to the bottom and wait for me?"

Qianling was stunned, a little anxious, and tried hard to pull the skirt out of Xiao Jiu's mouth, but it bit and kept dragging her backwards, preventing her from continuing forward.

Qianling looked at the forest in front of her and said anxiously:

"Xiao Jiu, let go of me, I have something to ...... now"

The air vibrated violently, expanding in waves, as if something was brewing silently—

Xiao Jiu looked at the forest in the distance, a pair of dark red beast pupils were full of horror and fear, let go of the clenched mouth and slowly retreated a few steps, the wide membranous wings stretched hard, and quickly fled towards the forest behind!

In the next second, the dazzling daylight burst out in an instant, like a raging wave expanding from the forest in the distance!

As soon as the corners of her skirt loosened, Qianling breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to run forward, but when she raised her eyes, she saw that the dazzling white light that engulfed everything had exploded like a torrent, and in an instant, the entire forest in front of her had been swept away!

She looked at the figure in the forest in front of her, which was almost instantly engulfed by the dazzling white light that covered the sky, and her face turned pale.

……

……

"Lisan and Xiaoguo will leave it to you. ”

……

……

In a trance,

The last words left by Jin Hyuk before his death seemed to echo in his ears.

In the dazzling light in front of him, a familiar picture gradually emerged.

The thick and deep darkness of the night, the golden arrows that filled the ground, the broken windows, the scattered feathers, like the dazzling holy light that suddenly erupted during the day, and the bodies and membranous wings that had broken down in an instant under the scorching light......

Something suddenly trembled violently in his chest.

"Satsuki ......?"

The voice was low, and there was a faint tremor.

She stared blankly at the daytime holy light rushing towards her like a torrent, and her mind went blank, as if she was also swallowed up by the dazzling white light.

The body acted faster than the mind.

The cheeks are faintly pale, and the paleness reveals firmness and persistence. She rushed in the direction of the white light explosion, like a small white fish swimming upstream, and in an instant, she had plunged into the torrent of bright light!

So steadfast and fearless,

It's as if that's the only way to survive.

"Satsuki-!!"
