Chapter 78: Temporary Security
For some reason, the hazy mist slowly dissipated at this moment, and the black shadow under the pale cover finally showed its true face, the gray-white wolf-shaped demonic beast standing up with a height of more than two meters and two legs grinning with a bloody mouth, and its thick front paws were able to carry a Xingyu Hall disciple in the air with only one arm.
The two Cangyue Demon Wolves each grabbed a disciple who was in a coma, but they were not in a hurry to bite or hurt them, but as if they were deliberately showing it to Ning Yue, they shook it on their paws, blocked in front of them, and were still howling in a low voice, gesturing their claws on the hostage's neck from time to time.
The strength of the five fingers of the hand holding the sword tightened a little, and Ning Yue was a little hesitant for a while, if these two wolf beasts directly killed those two disciples, he would be able to do it, just rush forward to kill and take revenge. But at present, he is in a dilemma, as if the Moon Demon Wolf is holding people in their claws like a hostage, and wants to threaten him or something.
"Brother Zhong, you can open your eyes first. It seems that this time the monster is more intelligent and more treacherous and cunning than we thought. ”
The demonic beasts that can step into the Spiritual Awakening Realm, how much of their beastly nature will fade a little, and their spiritual wisdom has also grown, but as close as this, humans know how to take hostages to threaten, Ning Yue has never heard of it, and has never seen it.
"How-what!"
With a startled cry, Zhong Lang was also extremely surprised by the scene in front of him, he had also heard of the famous Cangyue Demon Beast before, but he couldn't believe that he knew how to use this hand anyway.
"What about the other two?"
Immediately afterward, he looked around, but not much of the fog had cleared, and he couldn't see much farther away.
"I've killed you, and that's all that's left. ”
Ning Yue replied in a deep voice and took a step forward, but at this moment, a Cangyue Demon Wolf in front of him suddenly roared, and the waving claws directly hit the throat of the kidnapping disciple, almost piercing the flesh and skin.
Looking much nervous, Zhong Lang exclaimed, "What are they going to do?"
Without waiting for Ning Yue to answer, the answer had already appeared in front of him, but he saw that the two Cangyue Demon Wolves began to retreat, gradually retreating into the mist, and still held the kidnapped Xingyu Hall disciple in front of him, signaling the two of them not to step forward.
Seeing this, Zhong Lang's surprise in his heart was even greater, and he muttered: "Take this as a threat and retreat with your whole body?" These wolf beasts, their spiritual intelligence is a little terrifying......
Ning Yue shook his head and said, "It won't be that simple. If they just want to escape smoothly, there is no need to risk such a thing again, just take advantage of the fog to escape at first, and we will definitely not be able to pursue it deeply. I'm afraid, they deliberately want to be captured alive. ”
"Impossible, if that's the case, why did you kill my senior brother in the first place?"
Zhong Lang was shocked again, and he couldn't agree with such an inference.
"If you're talking about the one who screamed in the fog, then I'm going to correct it. None of us confirmed his death with our own eyes, we just heard a scream. Moreover, in common sense, the Cangyue Demon Wolves are infested in packs, and there are at least five of them in one hunt. However, there are not just five. I don't know, but the sixth one, who didn't show up, has already left with your senior brother. ”
Shaking his head again, Ning Yue laughed at himself: "Of course, this is just my reasoning. Whatever the purpose, though, at least one thing can be confirmed. These two wolf beasts are not low in intelligence, and they can recognize that they are using hostages as a threat, so we dare not act rashly. Well, I can just give it a try. ”
"What to do, I'll help you. ”
Gently placing Ran Nian, who was holding in his arms, on the ground, Zhong Lang clenched the sword in his hand.
"You stay, never leave your junior sister's side. As I said earlier, there are probably more than five wolf beasts. To deal with both of them, I can do it alone. To be exact, just to capture one of them. ”
When the words fell, the corners of Ning Yue's mouth instantly raised a faint arc of smugness, and at the same moment, he raised his hand to caress the dark red sword blade of the dark Xuan, and a little scarlet flashing in the edge was reflected in his eyes, blooming brilliantly, but frozen here.
"The first type, instantaneous. ”
In the whispering moment, all the scenes were slow and almost static in his eyes, even the floating pale mist was clearly visible, the swaying blades of grass solidified in the wind, and the two tall black shadows in the distance did not move at all, as still as a target.
Sou!
Not daring to hesitate at all, Ning Yue flew out as fast as he could, and the instantaneous extinction of the power of the Dark Xuan Seal only gave him a fleeting opportunity, and this was almost impossible for other living beings to notice.
Laugh at!
The sword light roared violently, and the red streamer slashed an arc of scarlet in the void, and the bitter wind and the mist cut together.
In the blink of an eye, the right arm of the wolf beast in front of him was broken, and the disciple of Xingyu Hall who was held hostage fell directly. However, Ning Yue didn't catch him at all, but at the moment when the instantaneous time froze and passed, when the Cangyue Demon Wolf reacted, he turned over and jumped on the other party's back, and smashed it down with a heavy kick.
Boom!
I only heard a dull loud sound echoing in the forest, which seemed to be mixed with a few splintering bones, the tall wolf beast leaned over and smashed it heavily in response, and at the moment when he wanted to get up, Ning Yue hit it on the back of its neck with a backhand punch, and took advantage of the situation, and the cold blade was tightly attached to its side neck.
Woowoooooo
Suddenly, the other wolf beast howled, but its movements stopped abruptly, and it froze in place, its round eyes flickering with green light.
"That's right, you're not the only one holding hostages now. ”
Ning Yue smiled slyly, in the moment of instantaneous annihilation, he only had the opportunity to attack a wolf beast, and if he wanted to kill it, he could do it. But if you do that, you can't save the second person, and the only choice you can make is now. ‘
Wound one, use this as a threat, and exchange hostages in each other's hands.
He believed that since the intelligence of this Cangyue Demon Wolf was enough to know how to capture him alive and use it as a threat, he would naturally be able to understand his intentions at this moment.
In the distance, Zhong Lang also reacted to Ning Yue's intentions, and a burst of incredulity appeared in his heart, however, when he heard a scene that he would not believe no matter what, this moment was really unfolding in front of him.
Woowoo woo –
The howl was much lower, and the wolf beast slowly crouched down and gently placed the hostage on the ground in its hand, but the claws did not move directly.
Nodding and smiling, Ning Yue moved his left foot that was stepping on the back of the Cangyue Demon Wolf, and the long sword against his side neck also pulled back.
There is no need to communicate, and they can't communicate with each other verbally, so they can understand each other.
Then, as soon as the claws were released, the wolf beast shifted a few steps and skimmed its head.
"It seems that you are indeed very smart. ”
Ning Yue jumped out in an instant, grabbed the disciple who had been placed on the ground by the wolf beast with one hand, and then retreated backwards, falling back to the side of another unconscious disciple.
The next moment, the severed-arm wolf beast that had broken away from its uniform hurriedly got up and trotted, returned to its companion, and roared fiercely. However, he didn't make any more movements, just walked back quickly with the other Blue Moon Demon Wolf, and disappeared into the mountains and forests surrounded by mist.
"Just let them go?"
Behind him, Zhong Lang asked puzzled.
"They're willing to be honest, and it's somewhat unreasonable for us to kill them all. Besides, there are two unconscious people here, and if they really want to fight again, I can't take care of the two of them, and all the efforts before something happens are in vain. Presumably, you don't want your two brothers to come back with only corpses, right?"
Ning Yue shook his head and withdrew the dark xuan that had gradually dissipated from the red light into the scabbard he was carrying. Killed two and severely injured one, this time the essence blood of the Spirit Awakening Realm Demon Beast must be able to bring him a good blood spirit pill.
At the last moment of the dark sheath, the voice of the sword spirit sounded directly in his mind again.
"Master, the weak demonic beasts around have also retreated. ”
Suddenly, his heart sank.
Sure enough, it wasn't that simple, and if that was the case, his speculation was barely valid. However, if you want to confirm, you need more now.
"Brother Chang is right, I think too much. ”
On the other side, Zhong Lang nodded and sighed, and at the same time stroked Ran Nian's little face and shook it a few times.
Soon, Ran Nian muttered, his somewhat tired eyes slowly opened, and when he was in Zhong Lang's arms, there was suddenly a touch of blush on his cheeks, and soon, there was a faint smile of satisfaction in his eyes.
"Senior brother, it's not bad to die together. I can't imagine that I can be with you in another world......"
"Ahem, I'm afraid it's different from what you think, we're all still alive. ”
Ning Yue couldn't help but remind, and at the same time glared at Zhong Lang with some dissatisfaction. Since Ran Nian woke up, it was inconvenient for him to ask the other party about the piccolo, and the promised reward was directly lost.
But after doing this, there are a lot more doubts in my heart, and in comparison, I don't care so much about the unintentional curiosity before.
Since the other party doesn't want to say it, just forget it.
"For the time being, there shouldn't be any more Warcraft, and the top priority is to evacuate this mountain forest first. ”
After that, Ning Yue pushed a comatose Xingyu Hall disciple to Zhong Lang, naturally it could only be the two of them carrying one by one, Ran Nian said that kind of girl Although the eightfold strength of the Yuan Martial Realm was not small, it was inconvenient.
So, Ran Nian was on guard with his sword in front, and Ning Yue and Zhong Lang walked quickly towards the edge of the mountain forest with one of them, so that the murderous and misty mountain forest would not be thought of again for at least a short time.
The path back was smooth, and as we approached the edge, the fog gradually faded, and the open outside could be faintly seen in my sight.
The moment he finally left the mountains and forests, Ning Yue breathed a sigh of relief, put the disciple on his shoulders to the ground, and finally looked back, his expression became solemn again.
"How many unknown secrets are buried in this forest?"
"Surely, it's a lot, but I don't want to know. I haven't said it, Brother Chang, this time, thank you. We wouldn't have been able to leave alive without you. ”
Zhong Lang smiled friendlyly, leaned closer, and continued: "Wait until you find a place where no one is, and I'll tell you about that matter." ”
"No need, no interest. Say goodbye. Here you are, safe for the time being. ”
Shaking his head, Ning Yue turned around and left, entering the Demon Haze Mountain Range needed another idea. Ying Tianxu still has no news, and there is not much time left for him.
"That Chang brother, wait a minute. ”
Who knows, Zhong Lang spoke again, looking a little hesitant.
"Our sect's camp is nearby, if you can, I'd like to take you there to thank you. ”
Thoughts flashed through his mind, and Ning Yue smiled back.
"That's trouble. ”、
Xingyu Hall is also considered a first-class sect force in the Snow Dragon Empire, so it should be able to get some news there, right?
