If I stay in the Hehuan Sect, I'll live off the pampered daughters of the Heavenly Pride Sect.

"Look."

"This feeling of being secretive and unable to see the light of day."

"Don't they look like a pair of star-crossed lovers eloping?"

"Or perhaps..."

"Adulterers who secretly have affairs behind their wives' backs?"

Mo Chengyue: "..."

He stumbled.

I almost fell headfirst into a mud pit.

How does this woman's brain work?

This is a battlefield between immortals and demons!

It's a meat grinder!

This isn't the matchmaking corner on the back mountain of the Hehuan Sect!

Mo Chengyue tried his best to make his tone sound calm yet intimidating.

"Yu Jianhuan, is your brain filled with nothing but tofu dregs?"

"We're running for our lives!"

"The righteous path has nine sects and seven factions, the demonic path has six sects and eight religions, and even the demon race and monsters are all loitering around here. You don't want to live, but I want to live!"

"Even when you're running for your life, you can still flirt."

Yu Jianhuan's voice became low.

It carried a captivating and alluring charm.

Her fingers traced the collar of Mo Chengyue's collar.

I slipped inside quietly.

He drew circles on his muscular chest.

"That feeling of tension—the constant possibility of being discovered and hacked to death at any moment..."

"Don't you think it's exciting?"

Her eyes sparkled, and a morbid excitement flickered in her alluring phoenix eyes.

"Junior brother, there's no one here."

"or……"

"Shall we cultivate together?"

Mo Chengyue suddenly stopped in his tracks.

He lifted Yu Jianhuan up slightly to prevent her from falling, then turned his head and looked at her with the eyes of someone looking at an idiot.

Are you sick?

"And he is quite ill."

Yu Jianhuan didn't take it to heart and instead pressed her body even closer.

It was incredibly soft and elastic.

"I am perfectly sober."

"Your technique can help me heal my injuries and also help you improve your cultivation."

"I'm injured now, you need to become stronger to survive."

"Isn't this a match made in heaven?"

"Just once... I might be able to break through to the Core Formation stage, and you might at least be able to reach the threshold of Foundation Establishment."

"When the time comes, if the two of us join forces, we can even have a go at mid-stage Core Formation cultivators."

The logic is sound.

Under normal circumstances, Mo Chengyue would definitely be tempted.

but now……

"You want us to die even faster, don't you?"

Mo Chengyue took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the anger in his heart and a certain indescribable physiological reaction.

He pointed to the gloomy sky above.

"Use your pig brain and think it through."

"Dual cultivation?"

"breakthrough?"

"Do you know what a breakthrough means now?"

"Your Core Formation phenomenon."

"Plus my Golden Core Tribulation."

"Once it's triggered in this place..."

"Those are two giant spotlights."

"And it even has a flash."

Mo Chengyue sneered.

"At that time."

"It won't just be small fry coming."

"But rather, they are the Core Formation Perfection Divine Thoughts that are rushing this way."

"They'll just divide us up like snacks."

"Are you trying to kill yourself already?"

"Do you still think these concealment talismans I pasted are unnecessary?"

Yu Jianhuan blinked.

A sly glint flashed in those captivating phoenix eyes.

"They just trust their junior brother's abilities."

"after all……"

"Junior brother is a talent who can revive a corpse right under the nose of a Core Formation stage cultivator."

"Not even afraid of death."

"Are you still afraid of the lightning tribulation?"

Mo Chengyue couldn't be bothered with this crazy woman.

He was just about to continue on his way.

Sudden.

"Buzz—!"

A terrifying tremor came from underground.

Followed by.

The black beam of light in the distance suddenly expanded.

It dyed most of the sky black.

Countless dazzling streaks of light.

It rises from all directions.

With tail flames of various colors.

Like a meteor shower, it streaked across the sky.

They sped off toward the direction of the black beam of light.

Holy crap!

Mo Chengyue's expression changed.

Without even thinking about it.

He hugged Yu Jianhuan directly.

He rolled on the spot.

They hid behind a huge broken stone tablet.

"Sh-!"

"Don't make a sound."

Mo Chengyue pressed Yu Jianhuan's head down firmly.

He pressed her against his chest.

At the same time, they frantically activated the breath-containment method of the "Yin Yang De He Jing" to compress their auras to the extreme.

They were like two cold stones.

Through the gaps in the stone tablet.

He saw above his head.

More than a dozen powerful and unparalleled auras swept past.

That's a powerful expert at the late Core Formation stage!

There were even a few who exuded a terrifying aura emanating from half-step Nascent Soul cultivators!

Those big shots who are rarely seen in normal times.

At this moment, it's like a cabbage.

They went to the market in large groups.

"What a terrifying aura..."

Yu Jianhuan was also taken aback by the scene.

At this point, they dared not act provocatively anymore.

The flirtatious "seeking dual cultivation" feeling from before vanished instantly.

She nestled in Mo Chengyue's arms.

His body trembled slightly.

"Who is that?"

"Why is there such a grand display?"

Mo Chengyue stared at the black pillar of light that pierced through the heavens and earth.

His eyes became incredibly deep.

It even carried a mocking tone, as if he had already seen through everything.

"Who is that?"

"That's the main character."

"He is the chosen one."

"It's a troublesome aggregate."

Mo Chengyue muttered to himself in a low voice.

His tone was filled with awe for the concept of "fate".

And... the determination to get as far away as possible.

"main character?"

Yu Jianhuan peeked half her head out from his arms.

His eyes were unfocused.

"Who's the main character?"

"Which sect are you from?"

"Is it very strong?"

Mo Chengyue looked down at her.

That instant.

He suddenly felt a sense of loneliness, as if he were the only one sober while everyone else was drunk.

"The so-called protagonist."

"It's the kind of food that can produce extraordinary elixirs."

"You can find ancient secret manuals by jumping off a cliff."

"The old beggar by the roadside is his long-lost grandfather."

"Even a stray dog ​​you rescue at random is a monster reincarnated from an ancient divine beast."

Mo Chengyue pointed in that direction.

"There."

"We are now at the eye of the storm surrounding the entire site."

"All the opportunities, all the hatred, all the gazes."

"They will all converge there."

That was his stage.

"And we..."

Mo Chengyue patted Yu Jianhuan's still bewildered, pretty face.

"We're just passersby."

"It's a backdrop."

"Someone who's destined to survive to the very end."

"What if you accidentally get caught in it?"

"The only outcome is becoming cannon fodder."

"To pave an inconspicuous stepping stone on his path to godhood."

Yu Jianhuan seemed to understand but not quite.

But she understood the last sentence.

"You mean, you'll die if you go there?"

"right."

"Nine times out of ten, one chance at life."

Mo Chengyue was resolute.

"so."

"While these idiots are all rushing to their deaths."

"This is the perfect time for us to run away."

He put Yu Jianhuan back on his back.

I adjusted her posture to one that was comfortable for her and also less strenuous for myself.

He even tightened the rope tied around her waist in a disgusted manner.

To prevent this woman from moving around.

"We're going in the opposite direction."

Mo Chengyue turned around.

With their backs to that "opportunity" that everyone was eagerly anticipating.

"Where to?"

Yu Jianhuan was stunned for a moment.

"No matter where we go."

Mo Chengyue's voice was firm and calm.

"The farther away from that beam of light, the better."

"Stay as far away from those so-called 'strongholds of the righteous path' as ​​possible."

"In this world."

"When you don't know which way to go."

"Just go to places where there are fewer people."

"They'll likely survive two more episodes."

Before he could finish speaking...

He exerted force with his feet.

His entire being transformed into a gray ghost.

The shadow close to the ground.

Towards the edge of this chaotic battlefield.

They fled at lightning speed.

Yu Jianhuan lay on his back.

Looking at this junior brother whose behavior was so different from that of ordinary people.

Looking at his handsome profile, which always seemed full of calculation.

Suddenly I realized...

This man.

interesting.
