Warren's Rise and Fall
Chapter 68 Heading to Jushui City
"Wang Lunwo, it's enough, it's time to retreat, we have rescued a lot of people." The reason why Changsun Mingzhi did this was because he noticed two giant monsters flying in the sky, and one of them had glanced at them out of the corner of its eye.
"But......"
"There's nothing to worry about. If you continue to do that, I'm afraid we'll all die here." Chang Sun Mingzhi said as he pointed his finger at the flaming Peng bird and the fire-breathing red dragon flying in the sky.
Wang Lunwo followed Changsun Mingzhi's finger and saw the two giant monsters flying in the sky. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, the Flame Peng bird happened to glance at this side with its peripheral vision. Wang Lunwo met the majestic gaze, and his heart was beating fast. After all, he had no ability to fight back in front of this giant monster at this time. He immediately responded, "Okay."
Originally, Wang Lunwo was full of enthusiasm and wanted to rescue as many people in the city as possible. However, the reality was extremely cruel. The overwhelming power of the two terrifying monsters, the Flame Peng Bird and the Fire-breathing Red Flame Dragon, was simply beyond their ability to contend with at this stage.
The Flame Peng bird spread out its huge wings that covered the sky and the sun. Its wingspan was dozens of feet wide. The wings were burning with blazing flames, which flickered and flickered like countless fire snakes dancing. Every flap of its wings could bring up a gust of hot wind, as if it could burn a person's soul to ashes. Its sharp claws were like burning steel hooks, flashing a terrifying red light, as if it could tear apart the solid city wall with a light grab. Its sharp beak was like a sharp sword, shining with a metallic luster. The tip of its beak was a strange black color, as if it had been tempered by endless karmic fire. Its blood-red eyes revealed endless cruelty and indifference, which would make people feel terrified just by looking at it.
When Wang Lunwo met its gaze, he felt as if he had fallen into an icy cave. Only the person involved could understand that feeling. The bad news was that the fire-breathing red dragon also glanced over here at this time.
The Fire-Breathing Scarlet Flame Dragon was huge, like a winding hill between heaven and earth. The scales on its body were like burning charcoal, each of which flashed a dazzling red light, emitting a high temperature that was enough to melt steel. Wherever it went, the ground was scorched black, and wisps of green smoke rose. Its thick and powerful hind legs were like giant pillars, and its claws were deeply embedded in the ground, leaving a trail of terrifying marks. The tail of the Fire-Breathing Scarlet Flame Dragon was like a burning whip, which brought up a sea of fire when it was swung. Blazing flames kept spewing out of its mouth. The flames were as hot as magma, orange-red in color, rolling and surging, and could instantly turn everything into ashes.
While they were communicating with the people about their plan to evacuate, one of the big monsters, the Flame Peng Bird, had glanced at them several times. Every time that cold, threatening gaze swept over them, their hearts tightened. They knew very well that with their current strength, they could not compete head-on with these two big monsters.
"We can't delay any longer, we must evacuate." Changsun Mingzhi said with difficulty, a slight tremor in his voice.
Wang Lunwo gritted his teeth and looked at the people who were still crying for help, his heart was like a knife cutting through. But he also understood that staying would only lead to his death in vain, and he would not be able to save anyone.
"Let's go!" Wang Lunwo finally made up his mind.
With their hearts full of guilt and sorrow, they slowly left the ruins. Every step seemed so heavy, as if the ground beneath their feet was holding them back, not letting them leave.
Behind them, the roars of the Flame Peng Bird and the Fire-breathing Red Flame Dragon continued, and the cries of the people never stopped. Wang Lunwo, Changsun Mingzhi and others could only swear silently in their hearts that one day, after they had cultivated to perfection, they would come back to experience the strength of these two monsters.
When the group felt that the eyes behind them were no longer on them, they started to run away.
"Luckily we ran away in time. Wang Lunwo, you also know that the magic weapon on me can only resist the attack of Qi Ji Realm, and the opponent is a demon beast in Ningdan Realm, and there are two of them. If we ran slower, we would probably be buried in the demon's belly." Changsun Mingzhi said with a long sigh, as if celebrating his escape from death.
"Brother Changsun, I..." Wang Lunwo was about to say something but stopped.
"Stop, I know what you are going to say. You have done well enough and rescued a lot of ordinary people. This is already our limit. You are not thinking of defeating those two flying fire-breathing monsters, are you?" Changsun Mingzhi said jokingly.
"No, Brother Changsun, I understand. I will probably have to practice even more diligently in the future." The fire of practice in Wang Lunwo's heart burned again.
During the long evacuation, the group was filled with sadness and fatigue, as if shrouded in a thick haze. However, as the journey progressed, the surrounding scenery slowly unfolded before their eyes like a gorgeous painting.
On both sides of the road, colorful flowers compete for beauty. Red like fire, pink like clouds, white like snow, they cluster together, swaying in the wind, exuding bursts of fragrance. The fragrance is like a gentle hand, gently caressing the injured hearts of the travelers.
Tall trees stand upright, their branches and leaves interweaving into a green canopy. The sun shines through the gaps in the leaves, casting mottled light and shadows like golden fragments. The breeze blows, and the leaves rustle, as if whispering an ancient story.
A clear stream gurgles through the mountains, hitting the rocks and splashing crystal water. The fish in the water swim happily, sometimes jumping out of the water, flashing silver light. By the stream, the insects in the grass are also singing, their chirping interweaving into a natural symphony.
The birds on the branches jumped happily, their feathers sparkling with colorful light under the sunlight. Their crisp chirping broke the silence in the air and added some vitality to this quiet world.
"Look, the scenery is so beautiful, as if God is comforting our wounded souls." One of them said with emotion.
"Yes, maybe this is a respite given to us by fate, allowing us to temporarily forget our sorrow." Another person responded, with a glimmer of hope in his eyes.
In this picturesque scenery, the group's originally heavy mood gradually relaxed and changed. Sad thoughts were dispelled by the vitality in front of them, their steps were no longer heavy, and their eyes were no longer dim. The beauty and magic of nature seemed to have an invisible power, soothing their inner pain and letting them rekindle their hope and courage for life.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Chang Sun Mingzhi asked, "Wang Lunwo, where are we going next?"
"Brother Changsun has always taken good care of me since I came to Gengxin City. If there is anything that Brother Changsun needs me to do, I can just ask now."
Wang Lunwo probably has some resistance to my previous remarks, and now he is a little bit irritable. Thinking of this, Changsun Mingzhi also felt that Wang Lunwo was just like a child, but it was precisely because of Wang Lunwo's pure and innocent heart that he looked at him with new eyes. Then Changsun Mingzhi smiled and said, "I said, now I only value your cultivation talent and potential, and I will definitely not be vague when I need your help in the future."
After hearing Changsun Mingzhi's words, Wang Lunwo felt that it made sense. "Then let's go to Jushui City now. There is also a centurion from Gongshui in Baiying City who asked me to bring a message home. However, after what happened to the Muyi family in Muman City just now, I think that bringing a message may not be that simple. After all, what seems reasonable to me may be unreasonable in the eyes of those families."
Hearing Wang Lunwo's words, which seemed to be a hint of hostility towards the family, Changsun Mingzhi felt it necessary to remind Wang Lunwo, "Not all families are so short-sighted. Most large families are very thoughtful in considering issues. Of course, some small families that pretend to be large families will most likely have such a situation."
Wang Lunwo smiled, said nothing, and continued on his way with his head down.
After experiencing many twists and turns, Wang Lunwo, Changsun Mingzhi and a group of people from the escort agency finally headed towards Jushui City along the post road.
The afterglow of the setting sun cast long shadows on them. Although their steps were a little tired, their eyes were full of expectation and determination. Wang Lunwo walked at the front of the team, his posture was upright, and the wind blew the corners of his clothes, as if telling of his perseverance. Changsun Mingzhi followed closely behind, his eyes scanning the surroundings from time to time, keeping alert.
On both sides of the post road, the wild grass swayed gently in the breeze, and occasionally a few birds flew across the sky and chirped. The mountains in the distance were rolling and appeared hazy purple under the reflection of the sunset.
"Everyone, hurry up and try to cover as much distance as possible before dark," Wang Lunwo said loudly. Everyone responded and stepped even faster.
Their figures gradually walked away on the post road, moving towards the direction of Jushui City with the expectation of the unknown. There might be new opportunities and challenges there, but they would deal with them as they came.
As night fell and stars appeared in the sky, their footsteps and breathing were particularly clear in the silent night, like a powerful march.
Wang Lunwo looked up at the sky, thinking silently in his heart: No matter what the situation is ahead, we will arrive at Jushui City as always and start a new chapter.
Zhang Sunmingzhi seemed to sense his thoughts, quickened his pace and walked to his side, saying: "Don't worry, as long as we brothers work together, we will be able to overcome everything."
The group continued to move forward in the night, getting closer and closer to the light of hope in Jushui City.
