Demon King, Where To Escape - C247

After an unknown amount of time had passed, Gu Hua Wei came out of the darkness and saw a vast expanse of white mist. The mist gathered and brought with it a wet atmosphere. Through the mist, one could faintly feel the rugged peaks of the mountains.

As the sky darkened, Gu Hua floated down from the sky and coincidentally landed on a patch of green grass. There weren’t any injuries on her body. Long Jin held her in his arms as he endured the remaining vibrations.

Gu Hua Wei Wei stood up from his embrace. When she saw his pale face, her expression changed. Although Long Jin was heaven defying, she was still just a mortal after all …

“Are you okay?” She leaned forward to help Long Jin up. The man in blood-red clothing didn’t force himself to act tough, so he took advantage of the opportunity and leaned against her body. His stiff body didn’t seem to have a backbone.

Gu Hua blinked her eyes, but didn’t say anything in the end.

Long Jin silently looked at the flawless side of her face, his thin lips formed a cold smile, “I’m fine.” Saying that, he no longer made her feel uncomfortable. He stood up and stood by her side.

Gu Hua Wei Wei looked at the empty and gloomy sky. He reckoned that they had fallen into a valley. As for the others, they were probably sent to different places by the whirlpool.

The valley was almost covered in layers of mist, which was extremely white. Coupled with the pitch-black mountain, which could not be seen clearly, even a girl like Gu Hua Wei Wei felt a chill in her heart.

“We have to get out of here.” Gu Hua pondered for a moment before raising her head to look at Long Jin.

Long Jin’s mind was sharp, and there were almost no emotions that could escape from his eyes. He gently grabbed her hand, silently giving her a sense of security. However, there was an unspeakable strangeness in his eyes, “I’m afraid, we won’t be able to leave that easily.”

“What?” Gu Hua perked up her ears.

Long Jin gave her a comforting smile and said in a light voice, “Don’t be afraid, I will protect you.”

Gu Hua’s pinky finger trembled slightly in the man’s hand, which caused Long Jin’s smile to become even more genuine.

“Then you have to protect me well.” Since things had already turned out like this, Gu Hua Wei was not an unreasonable person. At the very least, what she needed to do was make sure they didn’t embarrass themselves.

“Alright.” The man gently responded, tightly holding her hand, his heart finally had a moment of beating.

“Let’s go.” Gu Hua picked up the long sword on the ground and was about to ride her sword as she quickly left. After all, her real target was Gu Qingcheng.

Long Jin grasped the long sword in her hand and said, “Let’s walk together.”

After saying that, the two of them kept her sword. After determining their direction, they walked out of the valley.

Along the way, Gu Hua Wei was so cold from Long Jin’s cold that she almost didn’t feel anything. She really couldn’t imagine how a person’s hand could be so cold. It was like ice and snow, penetrating the heart.

“Are, are you well?” After thinking for a while, Gu Hua Wei decided to concern herself with her savior who had saved her life time and time again. After all, they were grasshoppers on a rope, and only if he lived long enough would Gu Qian Sheng and Lin Ruoxi live better.

When he heard the man’s words, he felt that they were extremely moving. The smile on his face became even more beautiful. “Nothing.”

“Then your hand …” Why is it so cold …

These words caused her to deeply feel that his fingers were stiff. Even his pale face, which was covered by the fog, had an unspeakable strange expression. After a long while, he slowly spoke.

Insufficient Inherent… Gu Hua murmured these words. Inborn. The thing that was lacking was Qi, blood, or longevity. In other words, it was something else …

Gu Hua Wei Wei didn’t continue to ask about Long Jin. She could instinctively feel Long Jin was gloomy for a split-second because of the words’ innate talent is lacking ‘. She didn’t have any curiosity towards the sorrows of others.

“I wonder how Father and Mother are doing?” She spoke again, without saying a word about what had happened.

Long Jin relaxed, “All good.”

Hearing that Gu Qian Sheng Lin Ruoxian was doing well, Gu Hua calmed her heart, smiled and looked at the man who was staring at the vast fog, “Since you and I are already allies, then we should naturally help each other. If there’s anything you need me to do, feel free to ask.” His palm had her soul imprint. As long as he kept calling her name in his heart, no matter how far she went, she would still come to his side.

“Your father is very well.” Long Jin mentioned that Gu Qiansheng was still as cold as ever: “If anything happens to me, I will definitely not forget you.”

“Alright.”

Without a word, the two of them stepped on the grass on the ground and tried to cross the tall mountains, but after walking for a long time, they still had not passed through. Gu Hua Wei looked at the mountain which had clearly passed through and appeared again in front of them.

It’s not a formation.” Long Jin pulled her to a stop. His long, narrow eyes stared straight at a certain part of the mountain peak. “It’s a little fellow.

In other words, he wasn’t a formation expert, but someone with ulterior motives.

“You mean there’s something else here?”

“Yes.” Long Jin’s slender fingers pulled out something from his waist, but before Gu Hua could see it clearly, he saw the man’s hand, which was like a butterfly, gently waving it. Something broke through the darkness, heading straight for the mountain in front of him after who knows how long!

That mountain was ruthlessly smashed by the thing Long Jin was holding, and in a split-second, the entire mountain was set ablaze, the intensity of the fire especially dazzling in the dim light. Even the mist on top of the mountain had dissipated quite a bit.

A desperate cry of pain came out from the fire. It did not sound like a human, but more like some kind of demon beast. The sound was mournful and painful, as if it was suffering from a great pain that could not be relieved.

Gu Hua turned around and was about to ask Long Jin what those things were, when suddenly, the nearest mountain peak suddenly moved as if it was possessed!

In the blink of an eye, the mountain peak had four limbs. The four limbs were sturdy and pitch black, as if they were covered in charcoal ash. Even the straight mountain ridge bent like a magic trick.

“Toad.” Long Jin’s keenness towards this matter was clearly much greater than that of Gu Hua Wei.

“Mutated toad?” Gu Hua raised her eyebrows slightly. Those things were not very clean, but she asked, “These things, why do they exist here?”

“There’s a pond here.” Long Jin replied, “It’s just that I didn’t see it.” And these things were only the demon beasts that were born from the pond.
