Chapter 1394 The Little Monster that Betrayed Us
No wonder the Nine Nether Emperor asked them to wade straight into the fire, this was the only way.
Bao Xin and the others chased cautiously, fearing that they would be hit by the falling firewood, so they could not speed up. When He Lingchuan and the other two were about to leave the fire, they looked back and saw that they had not yet passed half of the journey.
The divine bone necklace suddenly bumped a few times, as if something was about to jump out. He Lingchuan seemed to understand what was going on, so he said to the Weng brothers: "You go out."
In fact, he didn't need to explain, the two brothers jumped out of the burning hall in two steps and walked to the small road in the back mountain.
They couldn't help but take a long breath of fresh air, it felt so good to escape from the fire!
The two brothers smiled at each other and saw that each other's face was blackened.
Looking back again, they saw the black-armored man standing at the edge of the fire, exhaling a long breath, like a whistling wind.
A little white flame was also spit out and thrown into the fire.
With a "whoosh", the fire was added to the fire, and the incandescent flames spread vigorously!
Weng Xing couldn't help but exclaimed: "How amazing! He actually put the white flame back into the palace."
The true fire that Xue Zongwu raised, the Nine Nether Emperor could also control it freely.
What's the reason? Weng Xing couldn't figure it out.
Previously, Bao Xin and others were able to chase He Lingchuan and the other two into the fire because the white flame had been taken away, and ordinary fires posed no threat to his magical shield; now that He Lingchuan and the other two have successfully passed through the Fire Palace, they turned around and put the white flame back into the fire, and that's it...
"Let's go." He Lingchuan released the white flame and turned to walk up the mountain, "They can't get here for a while."
Bao Xin was a new pursuer to Beishan, and he didn't know what had just happened here. He only saw the dark figure standing at the back door of the palace in the gap between the falling wood and the raging fire.
"Chase!" At this distance between the two sides, they can catch up!
But one of Xue Zongwu's personal guards who escaped was also in the team. When he saw the white flame spreading here, he immediately shouted: "No, run! General Xue's white flame fire spirit is rushing over, burning everything!"
Several companions died here just now, and only he successfully escaped from the fire. Is he going to die here again in a blink of an eye?
Bao Xin changed color when he heard this, and made a prompt decision: "Go back, retreat!"
They knew that Xue Zongwu had a white flame that was not completely a magic weapon. Even with the protection of Yuanli, the little thing still hurt people. Now this burning hall has become its home ground, and the power of the white fire spirit will be magnified several times here. Even if he and Fu Wending can withstand it, what about Xiaotao Villa and so many soldiers?
When everyone heard this, how dare they stay? They turned around and ran back and forth.
At this time, the Nine Nether Emperor at the door of the back hall turned around and left calmly.
There were fierce white flames and burning fallen wood between Bao Xin and him. Even though he was unwilling, he dared not chase after him. He could only watch the black figure disappear from his sight.
Zhao Guangzhi didn't know where he got out from. The tree trunk was burned to half, but he still knocked down two people and scared the others.
Everyone also heard his shrill laughter coming from the flames, which gradually died down after more than ten breaths.
The fire beam fell in the middle and crushed another person.
When everyone rushed out of the fire scene, the white flame had caught up with the last three people.
Two of them were Xue family soldiers, who had Yuanli to protect their bodies, but they were burned by the white flames and screamed in pain. After running out of the fire scene, they rolled on the ground a few times and barely put out the flames; the third person was a farmhand. The white flames burned him into a fireman with a roar, and he fell down before he even ran out of the fire scene.
In front of everyone, he was burned to charcoal on the spot.
In less than half a cup of tea, four people died in a fire scene.
They didn't even fight the Nine Nether Emperor.
Bao Xin's face changed color: "Why did Bai Yan's power suddenly become so strong?"
It was originally just Xue Zongwu's crouching beast, and he had teased it before.
"It may have absorbed enough power from this fire." Fu Wending was checking the wounded's burns, "If I'm not mistaken, the black-armored man swallowed Bai Yan?"
"Yes." Bao Xin also saw it, "Soon after we entered the hall, Bai Yan appeared again. It seems that the black-armored man let it out to stop us."
The timing was so accurate, those people were really vicious.
Fu Wending was puzzled: "Why would this little thing help Xue Zongwu's enemies?"
"I don't know." Bao Xin was worried, "What should we do now?"
"Send a message to the master, and borrow the aerial spies." The two of them were not officials in the royal court, nor did they join the army to command soldiers. Without the protection of Yuanli, they dared not easily break into the hall now.
Bao Xin's fire-proof magic weapon could not ward off such a fierce real fire, but they were agile, "Let's climb up from the side rock."
The way up the mountain is in the hall, ordinary people can't go up.
But they are not ordinary people.
...
After forcing the pursuers to retreat, Bai Yan turned around in the hall and chased He Lingchuan and the other two.
When the Weng brothers heard the noise, they looked back and their faces changed color: "Be careful, benefactor, the fire monster is coming again!"
The black-armored leader stopped and looked back, and the Weng brothers immediately hid behind him.
They have a backer now, so there is nothing to be ashamed of.
Bai Yan rushed forward, with a mighty voice and a strong heat wave. Weng Xing's beard was almost burned, and the black-armored leader did not move.
Before they could move, the Nine Nether Emperor slightly turned sideways, and Bai Yan plunged into his shoulder.
In an instant, the flames and firelight disappeared, and a black crouching beast appeared on the Nine Nether Emperor's armor.
Weng Xing asked curiously: "Huh, it changed color?"
When it squatted on Xue Zongwu's shoulder before, the little beast was silver-gray, but now it has merged with the armor of the Nine Nether Emperor and turned pure black.
Even the dullest person can see that this little beast has recognized the enemy as its master.
The Weng brothers looked at each other. Everything that happened tonight was incredible. They thought they were dreaming.
Did they avenge Brother Tu in their dreams?
"Follow me." The Nine Nether Emperor urged them, "Time is running out."
They haven't escaped yet.
Others go down the mountain to escape, but He Lingchuan and the other two have to climb the mountain first.
Fortunately, the three of them had stepped on the point in advance and knew that the high cliff was just ahead.
Weng Xing suddenly said, "There are bird monsters chasing us in the sky."
The road was blocked by the burning hall, so people couldn't get through, but those with wings could.
He Lingchuan knew it a long time ago. The soul-catching mirror had reminded him several times. The three of them sped up and suddenly got under two camphor trees.
Both of these trees are old trees with dense branches and leaves and thick crowns. On a night like this, it must be pitch black under the tree, with no light getting through.
The three people disappeared in an instant.
The blue robin, who had been following them in the sky, circled a few times and found that the three people did not appear again. Fearing that it would lose them, it had to fly down to observe.
As soon as it landed in the shade of the tree, a cold light flashed below, cutting off a few leaves.
