The other party moved lightly, avoiding Yan Chuan's attack. But he still took two steps back tactfully, raising his hands slightly in surrender: "We are all on the same side, why bother?"

Yan Chuan was immediately displeased: "Who is your friend?"

Qiu Zhida's eyes were filled with more teasing: "Of course it's you, little Yanchuan."

"Ridiculous." Yan Chuan thrust the long sword in his hand into the air, pointing directly at Qiu Zhida's throat without any hesitation.

However, when the tip of the sword touched Qiu Zhida, the figure instantly dissipated like smoke, leaving only an illusory afterimage, and disappeared in front of the two.

The two were slightly stunned and quickly looked around.

At this moment, a low laugh came from above, and the laughter echoed in the mountains, carrying an inexplicable chill.

"Whether this is ridiculous or not, let's talk about it inside the cave."

Jiang Yingxue looked up in the direction of the voice: "Qiu Zhida, you were once the leader of a sect, why did you do such a cruel thing?"

Before he finished speaking, Qiu Zhida's laughter suddenly intensified. He seemed to be amused, laughing wildly and crazily: "Cruel? Hahahaha! Jiang Yingxue, you are so naive and cute."

His voice seemed to come from all directions, distant and near. "Come to think of it, your ice dragon crushed my inner core and left me in pieces. That was quite cruel. Oh, and I was kicked out of the Lingxi Sect because of you. Have you forgotten? Since I've been expelled, why should I care about your pretense of being noble?"

"What do you want to do?"

"What do I want to do? You will know once you enter the cave."

Jiang Yingxue looked at the cave not far away. The cave was like the bloody mouth of a giant beast, weird and eerie.

Only a fool would fall into such an obvious trap.

Without thinking too much, she quickly formed a seal with both hands: "Frost becomes a mirror, dragon roars for the nine heavens..."

As she chanted her incantations, the spiritual energy in the air quickly condensed, cold air lingered around her, and the frost transformed into a crystal clear ice mirror that floated in front of her.

However, just as she was about to summon the ice dragon, there was dead silence in the mirror. There was not even a sign of response, and the ice dragon did not appear.

Jiang Yingxue was slightly startled, a flicker of panic in her eyes. She channeled her spiritual energy again, causing the ice mirror to tremble slightly, but still remained motionless.

Not right.

"Hahaha!" Qiu Zhida's laughter grew wilder. "Girl, you want to summon your ice dragon again? You don't think we have no way to deal with you, do you? Don't struggle, just come in. This place is already covered with Lord Luo Wei's barriers. Instead of crying out to heaven and earth in vain, why not come in and talk to us?"

Rowe?

When Jiang Yingxue heard the name, her face suddenly changed and a hint of unconcealable fear flashed in her eyes.

At that moment, she felt as if she was falling into an icy cave.

"Oh no!" She quickly turned around, grabbed Yan Chuan's hand, and said in a panic: "Run!"

Yan Chuan was stunned by her sudden action, but he did not dare to stop and followed her running along the same path.

He rarely saw Jiang Yingxue lose her composure like this; even her eyes revealed panic and helplessness.

As he ran, he couldn't help but ask, "Yingxue, Qiu Zhida's inner core was damaged by you, so his cultivation must have been greatly reduced. Why are you still so nervous?"

Jiang Yingxue shook her head in panic: "I'm not afraid of Qiu Zhida, I'm afraid of Luo Wei."

"Who is Luo Wei?"

"Don't ask, just run!"

Although she didn't remember Qiu Zhida being among the villains, she was very sure that Luo Wei was there!

In the original novel, the Demon King's two right-hand men are Yan Chuan and Luo Wei. Yan Chuan's descent into the demonic path and subsequent rise to the Demon King's right-hand man is "thanks" to Luo Wei's guidance and encouragement.

Just now Qiu Zhida was talking about one of our own people, so it was obvious that Luo Wei was coming for Yan Chuan.

No wonder Qiu Zhida made the children cry deliberately when he beat them just now. This was clearly an attempt to lure them into Mengshan!

It was simply a conspiracy carefully crafted with human lives.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yingxue felt scared all over. She felt a chill running from the soles of her feet to her heart, and she couldn't help but quicken her pace.

However, no matter how Jiang Yingxue and Yan Chuan returned along the original route, it was of no avail.

The surrounding scenery is still familiar, but it seems to have been reset by an invisible force. The scene in front of me keeps looping, and the road under my feet extends endlessly, as if there is no end.

Every time they turned around and looked back, they saw almost the same tree shadows, the same rocks, and even the smell of the air had not changed, as if they were trapped in a cycle with no exit.

Jiang Yingxue's heart was beating violently, her legs began to weaken slightly, and she felt a sense of oppression coming from all directions, forcing her to suffocate.

Yan Chuan sensed her uneasiness, but they were clearly trapped at the moment: "Yingxue, calm down."

As he spoke, Yan Chuan drew out the Firefly Sword with his other hand and slashed it into the air. The sword's intent flashed, but was swallowed by nothingness.

"Besides, the person who set up the barrier has a higher level of cultivation than us, so we can't get out for the time being."

Jiang Yingxue finally stopped, but her back looked extremely embarrassed, her shoulders trembling slightly, as if she would collapse at any time.

She loosened her grip on Yan Chuan's hand, lowered her head, and let her hair messily stick to her pale cheeks. After a while, her voice finally escaped from her throat, so low that it was almost inaudible: "I can't calm down..."

She squatted down and said, "It's all my fault... It's all my fault for being too self-righteous. It's all my fault for trying to show off and thinking I could save people... It's all my fault..."

An unprecedented sense of fear instantly surrounded Jiang Yingxue.

In the original novel, Luo Wei's power is second only to the Demon King and Yan Chuan. The book describes him as vicious, ruthless, capricious, cruel, and considers human life worthless.

Although Yan Chuan is one of us now, he is only in the Nascent Soul stage before he becomes possessed by the devil.

Two Yuanyings cannot defeat Luo Wei.

Her mind instantly came to three conclusions.

First, she can't save anyone.

Second, if Luo Wei’s power is too strong, she might die.

Third, Yan Chuan will be captured by Luo Wei.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yingxue's emotions gradually collapsed. She turned her head and looked at Yan Chuan: "No, we have to get out even if we can't. I can't let Luo Wei take you away. It's all my fault. If I had summoned the ice dragon at the foot of the mountain, we wouldn't be trapped here. It's all my fault, it's all my fault..."

"what happened to you?"

"It's all my fault, it's all my fault!"

Seeing that Jiang Yingxue was about to lose control of her emotions, Yan Chuan knelt down and took her into his arms: "I don't blame you, don't be afraid, I'm here."

Jiang Yingxue was stunned, her whole body frozen in his arms. After a long while, she finally came to her senses.

She swallowed and tried to calm herself down. "Brother, let's hide first and buy time. We have to wait for Chu Ying to return to Xianyun Sect for reinforcements."
