"This is bad, Yaotiao, retreat quickly!"
Li Yanran’s complexion drastically changed; she couldn’t care that she was still flying with an artifact, and flung the Wood Spiritual Bead in her hand directly at the shadow!
Qin Yaotiao’s reaction was ultimately a bit slow, the shadow struck and bit into one of her feet with a loud bang. The trendous force ca crashing down, as if it intended to drag her into a crevice in the ground!
"It hurts!"
Qin Yaotiao cried out delicately, but she knew that if she were to be dragged down, she would certainly be dood!
After all, she was a Foundation Establishnt cultivator, it’s just that she lacked experience in dealing with enemies.
That hesitation of hers was already enough to give her opponent an advantage; if she had been bitten and still did not know how to respond, she would be no different from a fool.
Qin Yaotiao tried to curl up her body, while stretching out a palm, and slapped it towards the beast’s mouth.
Her spiritual power was likewise trendous, also possessing the nature of the Tao; with one slap, the beast imdiately felt pain and slightly loosened its mouth.
Taking advantage of the mont, Qin Yaotiao pulled out the horn of a Jiao snake she had obtained in the Five Elents Incomplete Formation. The tip of the horn shone with a cold light, which she stuffed straight into the monster’s mouth!
This effectively blocked the monster’s mouth that aid to bite down again. Qin Yaotiao, sweating profusely, hurriedly retracted her foot, and then, using her hands and feet, she retreated backwards.
The monster, whether it was wary of the place or frightened by the Wood Spiritual Bead thrown by Li Yanran, revealed a resentful look in its serpent-like eyes and retracted its head back into the crevice!
"Yaotiao, are you alright?"
Li Yanran arrived belatedly. She helped Qin Yaotiao up, retreating while using the Wood Spiritual Bead’s power to heal Qin Yaotiao’s wounds.
But Wood Spirit Power, being sowhat incorrect treatnt, could only slightly alleviate the pain; healing Qin Yaotiao completely was sowhat difficult.
"It’s nothing serious; it’s just that it feels like... this foot can’t exert any strength!"
As Qin Yaotiao spoke, she looked down at her foot.
Upon seeing the wound, her face turned pale in an instant!
Li Yanran looked and her own face changed dramatically!
Qin Yaotiao’s bitten leg was actually turning green!
Poison!
The monster was venomous!
"We need to retreat quickly!"
Li Yanran suddenly beca extrely anxious, while Lu Chen was fully focused on injecting Chaos Spirit Power into the crevice. He had noticed the commotion here, but once he saw Qin Yaotiao had not been dragged away by the beast, he had withdrawn his attention.
How could he know that Qin Yaotiao had been poisoned?
"Can’t retreat anymore."
But in the ti it took to utter a sentence, Qin Yaotiao’s leg had lost all sensation. Li Yanran’s complexion grew even uglier. Thinking quickly, she stuffed the Wood Spiritual Bead directly into Qin Yaotiao’s wound, hoping to use the spiritual power within to delay the spread of the venom.
But this was only delaying the inevitable. It was not a cure, not even a palliative.
"I’ll help you get to Lu Chen!"
Without the Wood Spiritual Bead, Li Yanran was unable to control artifacts for flying, so she could only support Qin Yaotiao.
Qin Yaotiao shook her head and said, "Sister Li, it’s unnecessary, I’m afraid I’ll just be a burden to the young master... Just throw aside."
"How can we do that?"
Li Yanran quickly shook her head, "These beasts seem to be afraid to co to the ground. Lu Chen can save you!"
She didn’t understand the extent of Lu Chen’s abilities, but she believed unconditionally that Lu Chen could definitely save Qin Yaotiao!
Moreover, through Qin Yaotiao, she knew what their relationship was like...
Like gold that has been tested by fire!
Not to ntion, Lu Chen was already a person of deep loyalty and affection; how could he possibly disregard the life and death of his own companion?
"I can only be a drag on the young master. If I really die here, it would be easier for you to escape later... I... I’m useless anyway!"
Qin Yaotiao said while starting to cry helplessly.
She had a Taoist Body, yet she seed even less useful than Mo Buwen and Yu Qingqing, who were in the Qi Refinent Realm.
Qin Yaotiao’s deep-seated inferiority complex, which had been with her from childhood, flared up once again at this mont.
"No, you can’t die. If you die, we’ll all be dead!"
Li Yanran also sharply realized this and tried another approach to persuade Qin Yaotiao.
"How... how could that be? If I die, the young master wouldn’t have a burden anymore! Besides, Sister Li, you are amazingly talented. If later you and the young master leave together and unite your strengths..."
Hearing this, Li Yanran suddenly understood the crux of Qin Yaotiao’s insecurities!
Lu Chen saw her as a partner.
But Qin Yaotiao had never truly accepted this idea!
Otherwise, why would she always refer to him as the young master?
However, now was clearly not the ti for such persuasion, and instead she said, "If you die, Lu Chen will definitely be heartbroken. If he’s heartbroken, and if it affects his state of mind, how could he possibly bring us to safety? Yaotiao, whatever you want to say can wait. Let’s get you there first!"
And at that mont...
Lu Chen’s eyes suddenly widened.
He hadn’t noticed where the beast had gone, but he felt sothing underground devouring his Chaos Spirit Power!
Could it be...
The treasure at the heart of the formation?
