Chapter 40: Between Life and Death

Laxana looked at Jian Bufan in silence at the moment.

In the darkness, Jian Bufan's face was extremely gloomy, especially that gloomy gaze, which made it difficult for Laxana to imagine what Jian Bufan was thinking at this time.

"Whew-"

Outside, wolf howls sounded one after another, like a command from demons to assemble, and more and more demon wolves surged towards this side, constantly impacting the shield erected by Jian Bufan.

"Bang!"

……

The dull sound kept sounding, and the wolves seemed to fall into madness, constantly hitting the shield, and the shield in Jian Bufan's hand kept shaking, but he still gritted his teeth and persevered.

"Boom-"

A loud bang sounded, and then, Jian Bufan felt a wave of heat coming, and it turned out to be a demon wolf spraying fireballs here!

The shield was made of iron, and it was gradually burned red by the flames.

Jian Bufan's hand against the shield was suddenly burned off a large piece of skin, but he still didn't dare to let go, because, as long as he gave his hand, the only thing waiting for him was death.

"Ah......h

The pain was intense, and he let out a groan of pain.

Then he clenched his teeth, his eyes red, like a beast that had been wounded and had fallen into madness.

Laxana looked at this scene at a loss, looking at Jian Bufan's already burned arm, her eyes full of shock.

At this moment, Jian Bufan's face became more and more solemn.

Because, under the attack of the demon wolf, cracks have gradually appeared in the shield......

He underestimated the strength of these demon wolves too much, and originally thought that hiding in the cracks could at least wait for rescue, but now it seems that they can't hold on for long at all.

"Click-"

The heavy shield had begun to crack, like the call of death.

Laxana also wanted to reach out to help Jian Bufan, but the crack was too narrow, and Jian Bufan was in front of her, and she couldn't get around it at all.

Moreover......

Looking at the iron shield that had been burned red by the waves of fire, and looking at Jian Bufan's arm that had been burned, Laxana gradually retreated in her heart.

She couldn't figure out how Jian Bufan had persevered.

Jian Bufan didn't pay any attention to Laxana's actions at all.

It was as if he had forgotten that there was another person in the rift, and at this moment, he didn't expect any help from Laxana, and if he wanted to survive, he had to rely on himself.

Jian Bufan clenched his teeth, and his whole body was already wet with sweat.

He had already activated the hardened skin runes in his body, and his arms were as hard as rocks.

But he couldn't withstand this absolute high temperature, so he could only keep his arm from being scrapped.

At such moments, he was still trying to ignore the pain in his body, keep his brain calm, and think quickly about how to escape.

"Is there a way to survive?"

He asked Morgana in his mind.

Morgana in her mind quickly responded:

"Now I can no longer take control of your body, because you are already a realm breaker, you have your own essence in your body, and you are no longer an empty shell, now I can only cast a secret technique and put a shield on you, but it won't last long......"

"Then let's fight to the death!"

Jian Bufan responded to Morgana in his heart, and the gaze in his eyes gradually became firm.

"I can't hold on, I'm ready to break through, it's up to you whether you live or die."

He opened his mouth with a solemn face, reminding Laxana behind him, but he didn't look back.

Laxana nodded, her gaze unwavering, as if she had expected such a situation.

I can only fight to the death!

At this moment, Jian Bufan took a deep breath, and was about to let go of the iron shield that had been cracked and was about to break out of the crack, when he suddenly heard a violent eagle chirp from outside.

Jian Bufan looked out from the gap.

I saw that in the clear blue sky, a giant eagle was hovering high in the sky, and a pair of eagle eyes were scanning the ground, as if looking for something.

That's Quinn's Eagle!

Jian Bufan was extremely surprised, he didn't expect that after this eagle rescued Quinn, he would now turn back again.

Obviously, it was commissioned by Quinn to save Laxana.

Laxana also looked at the eagle at this time, and her eyes sparkled with hope.

But the next moment, a panic quickly spread in Laxana's heart.

Because, she suddenly found that Jian Bufan was looking at her at this moment, and in that solemn eye, it seemed that she was struggling to make some major decision.

For a moment, some bad images popped up in Laxana's mind.

She remembered the time when those people had killed each other for a chance to live.

And now, there is a chance to live in front of her and Jian Bufan, but there is only one chance!

Whoever was rescued by the eagle first, the remaining person would not be able to survive until Hua Luo's next rescue.

In other words, now, only one of the two can live.

Laxana had unconsciously grasped the dagger hidden at her waist.

She can be sure in her heart that Hua Luo will definitely save herself first, but there is also an accident, that is, she is dead, so Hua Luo can only save Jian Bufan.

Between life and death, who can keep their sanity any longer?

"Now, is he hesitating to do it......

Laxana couldn't be sure in her heart, her heart, which had always been as calm as water, was completely chaotic at this moment, and subconsciously, she had to stay away from the sword.

"The eagle is here to save you."

Jian Bufan didn't stay silent for long, looked at Laxana, and said in an extremely solemn tone, "Wait, I'll rush out first and lure most of the demon wolves away, and you take the opportunity yourself." ”

As soon as these words came out, Laxana was stunned, and then, a pair of eyes looked at Jian Bufan in disbelief.

"And what do you do?" She asked.

Jian Bufan's eyes turned cold: "It's none of your business." ”

There was a determination in his tone that was impossible to refute.

Laxana suddenly remembered that just a few days ago, in the foggy early morning, she had said something similar to Jian Bufan coldly.

She suddenly felt angry.

This seems a little inexplicable.

But she did really feel the anger rising in her heart.

It's like something that he was proud of, and he was suddenly stepped on by Jian Bufan.

"I don't need your help!"

Laxana responded in a cold tone, "Life and death only depend on your own ability, I am no worse than you, I don't need your pity, and you are not qualified to pity me at all!" ”

As soon as these words came out, Jian Bufan's face immediately became gloomy.

"Whatever you want."

He spoke softly, as if nothing was true of what Laxana had just said.

"Anyway, I will fight for you for the chance to live, whether you can seize it depends on yourself, and after that, it has nothing to do with me whether you die or live."

With that, he ignored Laxana.

He took a deep breath and adjusted himself.

"Click-"

The shield in his hand finally couldn't bear the heavy pressure, and when it was about to completely crack, Jian Bufan gritted his teeth, leaned half of his body on the red-hot iron shield, and rushed out......
