Taking the opportunity of traveling through books

Difficulties and dangers abound

"Oh no!" I cried out, instinctively trying to dodge, but I felt my body feel heavy as if it were filled with lead. The strange light in Wei Qing and Wei Xue's hands was clearly a jamming spell, specifically targeting my system! Damn, they actually have this trick up their sleeve!

I gritted my teeth and tried my best to activate the system, trying to reactivate the defense. However, the system interface flickered and crackled like an old TV. It failed at the critical moment!

Seeing me falter, Hao Shuang's eyes flashed with ruthlessness. He roared and lunged at me like an enraged beast. The longsword in his hand, like the scythe of the Grim Reaper, pointed directly at my heart with a chilling murderous intent.

At the critical moment, I barely dodged the fatal blow by leaning sideways. However, Hao Shuang's sword still slashed my shoulder, and a sharp pain instantly spread throughout my body. Warm blood flowed down my arm, staining my clothes red.

I groaned and stumbled back a few steps. The intense pain made my vision go black. Damn, this body is still too weak!

"Wei Yao!" I heard a cry of surprise from afar. I barely looked up and saw Hao Yang running towards me anxiously. His face was pale and his breathing was disordered. It was obvious that his body had not yet fully recovered.

"Don't come over here!" I shouted, holding back the pain. "You haven't recovered yet. You are no match for him!"

Hao Shuang stood in front of Hao Yang with a sly grin, the long sword in his hand dripping with my blood, looking particularly ferocious in the dim light. "Want to save her? You have to get past me first!"

I supported my injured shoulder and tried to keep myself steady. I couldn't fall down. I had to protect Hao Yang and change the fate of everyone!

Wei Qing and Wei Xue smiled triumphantly at this. They chanted the spell again in unison, and the strange light enveloped me once again. The system completely lost its function, and I felt like a butterfly entangled in a spider web, unable to move.

Hao Shuang approached step by step, the murderous intent in his eyes becoming more and more intense. "It's over, Wei Yao!" He raised his sword high, ready to give me the final blow.

At this critical moment, I saw a figure rushing towards me like lightning and blocking my way.

"You dare touch her!" Hao Yang's voice was hoarse and firm, with a determination to face death. He didn't know when a dagger appeared in his hand, flashing with cold light, pointing directly at Hao Shuang.

I saw a flicker of surprise cross Hao Shuang's face, then a sneer of contempt. "You overestimate your abilities!" He swung his sword, a powerful force sending Hao Yang flying... Hao Yang struggled to his feet, but Hao Shuang was faster. He took a step forward, his sword... Hao Shuang's sword, with a sound of piercing the air, pierced Hao Yang. Watching this scene unfold, my heart felt like it was being gripped by an invisible hand, making it almost impossible to breathe. Hao Yang!

At the critical moment, Hao Yang jerked sideways, narrowly avoiding the fatal blow, but the dagger in his hand was also knocked away and fell helplessly to the ground. Hao Shuang took advantage of the situation and swung his sword again. The sharp sword energy forced Hao Yang to retreat repeatedly. He had not yet recovered, and now he seemed even more powerless.

“Hao Yang!” I screamed at the top of my lungs, but there was nothing I could do. I was bound by the strange light of Wei Qing and Wei Xue, unable to move, and could only watch as Hao Yang fell into danger.

"Stop struggling, Wei Yao," Wei Qing's cold voice rang in my ears, "Today, both of you will die here!"

Wei Xue also let out a sharp laugh, like the cry of a night owl, terrifying. "Just surrender obediently, and you'll suffer less!"

They both increased their spellcasting simultaneously, and I felt the restraints tightening, as if they were about to crush my bones. I gritted my teeth, desperately resisting the overwhelming pressure, beads of sweat rolling down my forehead.

"System! System! Where are you?" I called out in my mind over and over again, hoping for a miracle. However, the system interface continued to flicker, with no response, as if it had completely collapsed.

Hao Yang was cornered by Hao Shuang. He had been bruised with wounds, his clothes stained red with blood. But he refused to give up, his eyes burning with an unyielding fire. He dodged Hao Shuang's attacks again and again, searching for an opportunity to strike back.

"Give up, little gangster," Hao Shuang sneered, "You can't be my opponent!" He swung the sword in his hand again, and this time, Hao Yang failed to dodge it completely. The sword cut his arm and blood gushed out.

"Ah!" Hao Yang groaned, staggered and almost fell.

Seeing Hao Yang injured, my heart felt like it was being stabbed by a knife. I struggled desperately, trying to break free and help him, but it was all in vain.

"It's over!" Hao Shuang raised his sword with a grim smile, ready to give Hao Yang the final blow.

At this critical moment, I suddenly remembered what my spiritual mentor had told me: "When you feel despair, don't give up hope, because hope is the only driving force that keeps you going. You must believe in yourself and the strength within you, and you will definitely be able to overcome all difficulties!"

The mentor's words were like a flash of lightning, piercing the darkness in my heart and igniting an unyielding fighting spirit. Yes, I can't give up! I still have the system, I still have Hao Yang, and I still have a mission that must be completed!

I took a deep breath, mobilized all my spiritual power, and began to attack the strange light that bound me. Once, twice, three times... I tried again and again. Even though each time ended in failure, I did not give up.

My body trembled, almost unable to hold on, but my eyes grew more and more determined. I felt the force that bound me seemed to be loosening slightly...

"You haven't given up yet?" There was a hint of surprise in Wei Qing's voice.

"It's useless, Wei Yao," Wei Xue sneered, "You can't possibly..."

Before she finished speaking, I suddenly felt a powerful force surging from my body... I suddenly opened my eyes...

An unprecedented power surged from my dantian, erupting like a volcano! The strange light that bound me trembled violently, making a harsh creaking sound like glass about to shatter. I felt the pressure on my body suddenly ease, and the power that bound me finally began to disintegrate!

"What's going on?!" Wei Qing exclaimed, an expression of disbelief on her face.

Wei Xue was also stunned. Her sharp laughter stopped abruptly, replaced by a hint of panic. "Impossible! How could you possibly…"

I ignored their shock and instead focused all my strength on one point, suddenly rushing outward! "Break!" I shouted, and the light that bound me finally shattered completely, turning into tiny specks of starlight that dissipated in the air.

I am free again!

Without even taking a breath, I immediately looked at Hao Yang. He was still struggling, with several more wounds on his body, and blood soaking through his clothes, but he still stood firm, his eyes full of determination and unyielding spirit.

"Hao Yang!" I rushed over, stood in front of him, and faced Hao Shuang directly.

Hao Shuang was clearly startled by my sudden outburst. He paused with his sword, a flicker of fear in his eyes. "You...you actually..."

"Hao Shuang!" I glared at this despicable man in front of me, a surge of rage burning in my chest. "If you hurt him even a little, I'll make you pay tenfold!"

I mobilized all my spiritual energy, pushing the techniques I'd acquired from the system to their full potential. A powerful aura emanated from me, and the air around me seemed to freeze.

Wei Qing and Wei Xue also came back to their senses. They looked at each other, their eyes filled with ruthlessness.

"Don't let her run away!" Wei Qing screamed.

The two of them joined forces again and attacked me. This time, their attack was even more fierce and vicious, and it was obvious that they wanted to kill me.

I endured the pain in my body, resisting their attacks while keeping an eye on Hao Yang's condition. Although he was seriously injured, he was still working hard to recover his strength, his eyes full of worry for me.

"Hao Yang, how are you?" I asked anxiously.

"I'm fine," Hao Yang said through gritted teeth, "You...be careful!"

I knew he was holding on. His face was pale and his lips were chapped. It was obvious that he had reached his limit.

My heart ached, and I became even more determined to protect him. I couldn't let him get hurt again!

I took a deep breath, gathered all my strength, and prepared to fight back again. But at this moment, I suddenly felt a sharp pain in my chest, my body shook, and I almost fell down.

Damn it! My internal organs were already severely injured when I was restrained, and now forcing myself to practice the technique has only exacerbated the injuries.

I gritted my teeth and tried hard not to fall down. I knew I couldn't fall down, I had to hold on, for Hao Yang and for myself!

Wei Qing and Wei Xue sensed my weakness, and their attacks intensified, descending upon me like a violent storm. My strength was draining away faster and faster, the world before me becoming blurry, and the voices in my ears gradually faded away...

"Wei Yao..." Hao Yang's voice was weak and anxious, with a hint of despair.

I tried hard to open my eyes and respond to him, but my eyelids became heavier and heavier...

I felt a cold hand grab my arm...
