#169 - Chapter 169: My friend dies, but I live
Li Ergou looked at the sky, feeling that something major was about to happen. When the light dissipated, he saw the Confucian scholar and the person in purple official robes had fallen to the ground.
Both were covered in blood, it was unclear where they were injured, but they lay there, looking severely wounded. The Corpse Fiend was naturally in no better condition, with one arm missing and a large hole in her chest and abdomen, the flesh writhing horribly.
However, this thing's vitality was incredibly strong. With disheveled hair, she raved, "Damn you, trying to kill me? Keep dreaming.
You will all die."
Li Ergou's heart sank, thinking that he had lost. Looking at the injured people on the ground, he could only think mournfully, "Everyone, I'm sorry. I, Li Ergou, have done everything I could. I've been more than fair to you all.
Immortal Wu once said a profound truth: it's better to sacrifice a friend than oneself. Instead of us all dying, it's better if you die. Sorry, I'll take my leave first. Your fate is up to heaven."
Thinking this, he wanted to call Ye Wanwan to quickly leave this dangerous place.
Then he saw the Corpse Fiend waving her sharp claws, attacking the two people on the ground. At this moment, their lives hung by a thread. Seeing this, Ye Wanwan didn't hesitate at all, and directly nocked three arrows on her bow, shooting them towards the Corpse Fiend.
Seeing this scene, Li Ergou couldn't help but exclaim internally, wanting to stop her, but it was too late.
The arrows flew rapidly, arriving in front of the Corpse Fiend in the blink of an eye. The Corpse Fiend didn't expect anyone else to be there, and immediately waved her hand, a powerful wave of corpse energy erupting, causing the three arrows to explode in mid-air.
The Corpse Fiend looked at Ye Wanwan, her eyes flashing with fierce light, "Courting death."
Immediately, she abandoned the two people and flew towards Ye Wanwan. Ye Wanwan panicked, continuously shooting magic arrows, but these things couldn't even get close to the Corpse Fiend. In the blink of an eye, she was already near Ye Wanwan.
He saw her wave her hand at Ye Wanwan, a red claw mark coming through the air. The claw mark carried endless terrifying power, and if it landed, it would definitely tear Ye Wanwan into pieces.
Although Li Ergou wanted to escape, Ye Wanwan had followed him for so long, and people have feelings. How could he abandon her? It wasn't Li Ergou's character. Although he was afraid of death, he would never stand by and watch his friends get killed.
Helpless, he could only summon the tortoise shell to block in front of the Corpse Fiend.
Boom!
The enormous force struck the tortoise shell, creating several scratches on the hard shell. Fortunately, this tortoise shell was extremely hard and did not break.
Seeing this tortoise shell seemed to evoke the Corpse Fiend's memories. She roared, "Damn it, it's you again."
Li Ergou chuckled, "I didn't know we would meet again. Why don't you let us go, and we'll leave right now."
The Corpse Fiend was about to speak when she suddenly noticed that Li Ergou's dantian was emitting a faint golden light. There was energy she needed within his body. She felt that as long as she absorbed this energy, her injuries would not only heal, but her cultivation might even stabilize.
Her eyes changed, and she glared fiercely at Li Ergou. Without another word, she attacked him.
Li Ergou tried the same trick again, but the Corpse Fiend's power was too great. Although she couldn't break the tortoise shell, she knocked it away in one blow. Li Ergou was dumbfounded this time, not expecting the Corpse Fiend to have such a move. He quickly turned around and ran.
But the Corpse Fiend chased after him relentlessly, shouting, "Die, give me death..."
The Corpse Fiend kept chasing and attacking Li Ergou, who desperately fled. But the Corpse Fiend was too fast, how could he outrun her?
In the next moment, he was caught up by the Corpse Fiend, who slammed a palm at him.
Li Ergou quickly summoned the Xuan Turtle Armor, but the Corpse Fiend was too fierce, and the Xuan Turtle Armor couldn't withstand the power of the Corpse Fiend's level. With one strike, the armor shattered. Her palm didn't stop, but continued forward with the remaining power, hitting Li Ergou with a loud bang, sending him flying.
If the Xuan Turtle Armor hadn't blocked most of the power, if Li Ergou's bones weren't incredibly hard, and if the Corpse Fiend wasn't seriously injured, this strike would have probably killed him. Even so, he felt that his bones had cracked. Fortunately, they hadn't broken, and he was still relatively fortunate.
He wanted to play dead, but the Corpse Fiend wasn't planning on letting him go. She had already reached out her hand, sucking him over. Li Ergou felt that something bad was about to happen. This guy was going to suck him dry and kill him.
He did a carp jump and quickly summoned his flying sword to escape, thinking that if he couldn't beat her, he could at least run.
To his surprise, the Corpse Fiend didn't give up on him. Ignoring the many people on the ground, she chased after him.
Li Ergou quickly said, "Hey, do you have to be like this? There are so many people, why do you have to chase me? My blood smells bad."
The Corpse Fiend snorted behind him, "Smells bad? It doesn't matter. You have a special energy on you. As long as I absorb you, I can recover completely and stabilize my cultivation. Brat, prepare to die. I won't let you go."
Li Ergou was speechless, thinking that perhaps he had too much mysterious aura on him, and this guy had seen through it. Damn it, he didn't want to cause trouble like this.
Without time to think, he could only fly away on his sword, running as far as he could. Unfortunately, the Corpse Fiend's cultivation was even higher. If she wasn't seriously injured, how could Li Ergou outrun her? Even so, the Corpse Fiend was just following behind Li Ergou.
A Golden Core Corpse Fiend, even if seriously injured, was not someone Li Ergou could provoke. He was terrified and panicked, thinking that he was too soft-hearted and shouldn't have provoked this scourge. Now it was all over, others were fine, but he was doomed.
Flying on a sword looked cool, but it consumed a lot of spiritual power. With his cultivation, he could only fly about five hundred miles. Now that the Corpse Fiend was chasing closely, he definitely couldn't outlast her. He was doomed, doomed, with no way out.
He sighed in his heart. With his youth, he would definitely have a bright future, but to die like this was a pity. Most importantly, he had just saved so many big shots and hadn't borrowed their light yet. It was a great loss.
What to do, what to do? He looked into the dark distance, wondering if he still had a chance to live. If it really didn't work, he would lead the Corpse Fiend to Bitter Water County. He quickly dismissed this idea, thinking that if the Corpse Fiend went on a killing spree there, wouldn't he be too immoral? He couldn't do such a thing.
Leading her back didn't seem to work either, this guy was just targeting him.
He looked at the fish scale sword under his feet, and suddenly a flash of inspiration came to him. He had a solution that wasn't a solution, maybe it could really save his life.
