Chapter 1231: Chapter 1231 Who Are They (1)
"Good! Got it! Everyone, pay attention, speed up!"
With those words, An Yiqing pushed her speed to the limit once again. With Gu Yelin leading the way, she didn’t stumble a single bit, racing forward desperately, reminiscent of the "Red Thorn" training field from more than a month ago.
This exhilarating rush gave An Yiqing great satisfaction; a hidden mory was unlocked, as if she and her companions had been exhausted together like this not long ago, thrilling and intense.
The rcurial flood drew closer, and everything it touched was covered in rcury. Gu Yelin and An Yiqing, among others, had transford into fleeting shadows, elevating both their Inner Breath and speed to the maximum, nearly floating as they ran forward.
Shadows swept by, leaving nothing behind but a blanket of silvery rcury. Yin Xilin widened her eyes, staring intensely at the approaching rcurial flood, her little face taut yet voiceless.
The group and the rcury were like cat and mouse, each vying for position, one fleeing, the other chasing, constantly changing the distance, filled with fright and thrill.
It was unclear how long they’d been running, their legs almost numb, when Gu Yelin’s deep and pleasant voice suddenly rang out.
"We’re here! We’ve reached the exit!"
Everyone’s spirits lifted as they opened their eyes wide, looking ahead. In the dark passageway, a doorway over a person’s height appeared ahead, with a faint glow emanating from the other side.
At that mont, Yin Xilin’s terrified voice suddenly broke out.
"The rcury’s speeding up! Run fast!"
Everyone’s hearts jolted; they turned their heads to see the surging rcurial flood only less than three ters away!
With no ti to think, everyone surged forward as fast as they could, feet barely touching the ground as they ran toward the light.
The rcurial wave behind them spread increasingly fast; Yin Xilin could even clearly see the silvery liquid brushing past Tan Yulin’s footsteps several tis.
Closer! Even closer! They’re almost at the exit!
Closer! And closer! The rcury is almost upon them!
In a re five seconds, they engaged in a life-and-death battle with the rcurial flood. When the flood covered Tan Yulin’s footsteps, his body soared into the air, a trendous force pulling both him and Yin Xilin out!
Tan Yulin tightly guarded Yin Xilin in his arms; just before they hit the ground, two strong arms caught them steadily.
"Boss?!" Tan Yulin looked up to find Gu Yelin’s cold black eyes in his sight.
Suddenly, his arms emptied as the Yin Xilin he held disappeared. Looking around, he found An Yiqing had already taken her.
"Is Lingling scared?" An Yiqing patted Yin Xilin’s head.
Yin Xilin shook her head, her eyes shining as she looked at An Yiqing: "Master said she wouldn’t let
be in danger, I trust Master!"
Yin Xilin could see clearly that the one who pulled her and Uncle Red Hair up was her Master, An Yiqing. Her big eyes focused on An Yiqing’s right hand behind her back, Yin Xilin understood that her Master’s right arm was likely strained.
Feeling a slight movent in her heart, the clever Yin Xilin committed everything firmly to mory.
She had a Master, a Master who could protect her unconditionally.
The events of today would beco Yin Xilin’s most beautiful mory for a lifeti. When a generation of poison queens surfaced over a decade later, her Master An Yiqing would be soone she would follow for a lifeti.
Of course, that part cos later.
Having been pulled to safety, Tan Yulin sighed as he looked at the surging rcurial flood behind them, seeing the places they’d just passed now completely covered in rcury. If they hadn’t escaped in ti, they might have been drowned in poison by now.
