The sea of fire in the air gradually disappeared, and the heat still remained in the air, and the remains of blood star bees on the ground were all testified to what had just happened.

Old man Hong came to everyone, saw Gu Qian at the front, and said with a smile: "Gu Qian, you are really embarrassed now." ”

"If you had come earlier, I wouldn't have been so embarrassed. Gu Qian scolded with a smile.

Old Man Hong glanced at Yan Zong and a dozen students behind Gu Qian, and couldn't help asking, "What about the other students?"

Gu Qian sighed, his expression darkened, and said, "The other students scattered in the escape, and I just found these dozen students, and I encountered the swarm just now. Neither Yan Zong nor I saw Tan Zhou's team, maybe they ran to the depths of the secret realm. ”

After such a long time, most of the students who ran away were more than lucky, and ordinary star warriors could not survive for too long under the pursuit of the Blood Star Bee.

The faces of the remaining students were gloomy and sad, and they knew how difficult it would be to escape from the Blood Star Swarm. If they hadn't met the dean in time, they would have been killed.

The team of fifty people came out, and now there are only a dozen people left. This was an extremely heavy blow to the Blue Academy, who were all the most outstanding students of the academy, and they were almost wiped out in this experience. Gu Qian and Yan Zong's hearts were extremely heavy, and they didn't expect that they would encounter a terrifying Blood Star Swarm on their first day in the secret realm.

"Send them back to the Star Gate first, and then we'll look for any students who have survived. Old man Hong spoke.

Gu Qian nodded, and was about to summon the students, when he suddenly heard a loud buzzing sound in the distance, and the sound wave actually made the surrounding ancient trees tremble.

Gu Qian's eyes shrank slightly, his scalp was numb, and he turned to Yan Zong and shouted, "Take the students back to the Star Gate!"

Yan Zong did not hesitate at all, and immediately said loudly: "Everyone follow me at full speed!" The dozen or so students present immediately retreated to the rear under the leadership of Yan Zong.

Old man Hong looked at the swarm of bees ten times more than just now, and scolded in his mouth: "Damn, a thousand have died, and the whole colony has come." He said to Gu Qian: "Don't be reckless, withdraw immediately after a quarter of an hour of delay, get rid of the bee colony first and then go to find someone." ”

"I don't have enough star power left right now. Gu Qian said with a wry smile.

Facing the attack of the sea of blood, the two began to mobilize the star power of their whole bodies and prepared for a hard battle.

In the early morning, Su Lingyu woke up from her sleep, and what woke her up was a rich and tempting smell of meat. She opened her eyes slightly, stretched out her hand to block the faint morning light for a while, and then opened them completely, and saw the boy by the fire, roasting a hare. The hare on the wooden frame has been charred all over, the flesh is cracked, the oil droplets are splashed, and the fragrance is fragrant.

Su Lingyu was about to stand up, only to realize that he was still wearing a men's robe. She took off her robe, stunned slightly, and then thought about the situation last night. Isn't he keeping vigil? Why did you fall asleep? Su Lingyu's pretty face that had just woken up was covered with a layer of blush.

She approached the fire and handed the robe to the boy, "Thank you." ”

Ye Xing took the wide robe with one hand, and continued to roast the hare with the other, "You're welcome." ”

Su Lingyu said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, I don't know when I fell asleep." ”

The blush on the girl's face made Ye Xing look at it twice, and he smiled lightly: "It's okay, I just woke up." ”

Su Lingyu nodded, and was about to say something, but her stomach opened first. The not loud "cooing" sound clearly came into the ears of the two, and the two subconsciously glanced at each other. Su Lingyu's face suddenly turned red, and he lowered his head and didn't dare to look at Ye Xing.

Ye Xing held back a smile, took a knife to cut off a large piece of meat from the rabbit leg, and handed it to Su Lingyu, "It's just right, it's already roasted." ”

Su Lingyu didn't raise his head, lowered his head to take the rabbit meat, walked a little farther away, and sat down. She tore into the delicious rabbit meat, and was very ashamed in her heart: Shame on the dead!

After eating, the two began to discuss their next plans.

"What should we do next?" Ye Xing asked.

Su Lingyu hesitated for a moment and said, "I'm still very worried about the situation in the academy, as well as my Su family and clansmen, I don't know if they are in trouble." ”

"If you want to go and see, let's go together. It's not a problem to stay here anyway. Ye Xing saw Su Lingyu's thoughts.

"However, if you encounter danger, I am afraid that I may not be able to take care of you. Su Lingyu looked at Ye Xing with a confused expression.

Ye Xing raised the long knife in his hand and said with a smile: "Although I don't have star power, it's not that I can't be powerless, it's no problem to encounter ordinary beasts." Besides, I'm running fast, and if things don't go right, I'll run away immediately. ”

Hearing Ye Xing's words, Su Lingyu sneered, and she said to Ye Xing, "Okay, then let's go find them." ”

Ye Xing nodded, extinguished the fire, picked up the wooden box, and walked towards the direction of the Azure Academy with Su Lingyu.

After walking for more than two hours, Ye Xing and Su Lingyu had already moved away from their original direction, approaching the route of the Blue Academy team.

Ye Xing carried a wooden box on his back and a long knife in his hand, and walked side by side with Su Lingyu in the ancient forest. Because the astrological compass was taken away by Old Man Hong, he kept his perception outgoing and was always vigilant about the situation in the environment on the left.

Su Lingyu held a turquoise star scepter and walked on the right hand. Her second-level perception was far superior to Ye Xing's, not only observing the environment on her right hand, but also paying attention to the two of them to prevent a sneak attack.

Ye Xing suddenly stopped and looked at the ancient tree in front of him on the left.

Seeing him stop, Su Lingyu immediately raised her vigilance, and asked a little nervously, "What's wrong?" She followed Ye Xing's gaze and saw a blue figure under a tree in front of her left, motionless.

Su Lingyu's heart tightened, and his right hand couldn't help but clench the star scepter. The two looked at each other for a moment, then nodded, and slowly approached the figure.

As they got closer, the two of them saw the figure's clothing: it was the uniform of the students of the Blue Academy. The two of them were shocked, but they did not let their guard down, and became more and more careful as they approached, observing the surrounding situation.

Walking into a zhang, the two finally saw the appearance of the figure clearly. Su Lingyu couldn't help but let out an exclamation, only to see that the figure wearing the academy uniform had shriveled skin all over his body, his face was distorted and terrifying, and his back was leaning against the ancient tree, looking like a dried corpse.

Ye Xing also saw this situation for the first time, and while feeling frightened, there was a wave of nausea in his stomach, and he felt a feeling of vomiting.

The two endured the discomfort, approached the dried corpse, and probed the corpse with their senses.

After a while, Ye Xing's face turned pale and said, "His whole body has been drained of blood, and there are two hole-like wounds on his forehead and chest. It is possible that some kind of ferocious bug has been encountered. ”

"He didn't have any star power in his body, and he was also sucked dry. It should be a star beast, so that it can devour star power and blood. Su Lingyu added that her white and tender face had also lost its rosiness, but it was normal.

Seeing Ye Xing's increasingly ugly face, Su Lingyu said softly: "If you want to vomit, you can vomit." ”

Ye Xing immediately ran to the side and spit out "wow". After a while, he walked back and said to Su Lingyu: "Thank you, the vomit is much better." ”

Su Lingyu smiled and comforted: "The first time you experience this kind of situation, it's normal to vomit, after getting used to it, it's okay slowly." I wasn't as good as you the first time. She turned low and sad, looked at the dried corpse in front of her and sighed: "Xingxiu all the way, dangers are lurking, life and death are inevitable. You may be lucky not to have star power, at least not to experience too many dangers and witness the death of your companions. ”

Ye Xing listened to Su Lingyu's emotion and was speechless for a while. After a moment, he spoke, "I don't have star power now, but I still witnessed the death of my companion, and I can't stop it. I am really in danger in this secret realm, and I have to rely on your protection. And if you're in danger, I probably won't be able to save you. That's why I want to become a star cultivator, to be as strong as possible, to be able to protect myself, to be able to save you when you are in danger, and to be able to protect all the people I care about. ”

Su Lingyu opened her beautiful eyes wide, looked at Ye Xing, a bright smile appeared on her face, and said happily: "This is also the reason why I became a star cultivator and have been working hard to cultivate." ”

The two smiled and looked at each other, forgetting for a moment the sadness of their companion's death.

Recalling Ye Xing's words just now, "I can save you when I encounter danger", Su Lingyu's face flushed, and he felt a little more joy in his heart for no reason.

"Let's collect this junior's body. Su Lingyu turned his head, looked at the dried corpse in front of him, and sighed. She held up the star scepter in her hand, and a cyan starlight bloomed on it. The scepter pointed at the dried corpse, and blue light poured into the corpse. The shriveled corpse returned to its normal appearance, and a young boy's face appeared in front of the two of them.

Ye Xing looked at this somewhat familiar and unnamed young man, and his mood became heavy again.

"Ahh Su Lingyu suddenly exclaimed, looked at the wound of the young man's corpse, and said, "It's the Blood Star Bee!"

"Blood Star Bee?" Ye Xing read the name that revealed the smell of blood.

"The Blood Star Bee is a social first-class star beast that eats star power and blood. There are tens of thousands of Blood Star Bees in a colony, as well as a dozen second-level queens and a third-level queen. Su Lingyu said with a frightened face, "Generally, when a star cultivator encounters a swarm of blood star bees that hunt for food, it is difficult to escape, and he will be chased and sucked up the blood star power and die. ”

The first-level star beast is equivalent to the star warrior, and the second-level and third-level star beasts correspond to the small star officer and the big star officer respectively. Tens of thousands of star warriors led by the big star officer and led by the small star officer, this force is enough to slaughter the entire Blue Mercury.

Ye Xing's heart jumped, and he hurriedly said, "Could it be that the dean, they have encountered a swarm of blood star bees?"

"Otherwise, the dean wouldn't have asked Master Hong for help. Su Lingyu also looked worried.

"Can the dean and Old Man Hong handle the Blood Star Swarm?" Ye Xing couldn't help but worry about Old Man Hong who rushed to support.

"Don't worry, Dean and Master Hong are two of the strongest Great Star Officials on Blue Mercury. In the case that the queen bee will not easily leave the nest, the average Blood Star swarm will not be able to stop them from leaving. Su Lingyu comforted, "It's just that Dean and Master Hong can't protect so many students at the same time, and the most likely thing is that they delay most of the bee colonies and let everyone escape." ”

Speaking of this, Su Lingyu glanced at the corpse in front of him and sighed, "But even so, it is difficult for those students with low star power to escape from the pursuit of some scattered Blood Star Bees. ”

"We can't go any further, and we won't be immune to the Blood Star Swarm. ”

"When we return to the Star Gate, after the Dean and Master Hong rescue the surviving students, they will definitely be sent out of the secret realm as soon as possible. ”

After reconfirming the plan, Ye Xing and Su Lingyu decided to go in the direction of the Star Gate.

Just as they were about to take the boy's body and set off with them, they heard a buzzing sound in front of them. The two of them looked at the same time, and saw more than two dozen red bee swarms the size of dogs and beasts flying towards here.

Su Lingyu's face changed, "Blood Star Bee!"

"Run!" The two of them didn't care about the young man's corpse anymore, and fled to the rear with all their might.

The group of blood star bees had already discovered Ye Xing and Su Lingyu in front of them, and they quickly lifted them up and chased them in the direction where the two of them had fled.
