"Commandery Princess—" Elder Can shouted loudly, but before he could finish, he had already fallen, and the youth imdiately disregarded the monster before him and turned to flee.
Especially upon seeing Ju Nanyi charging over together, the young man quickened his pace even more.
Zheng Nianru had not yet stabilized when she was suddenly replaced by Yin He in Ju Nanyi’s stead.
"Are you alright?"
"Young Master, that thing is coming." Elder Can shouted imdiately, now was not the ti to talk.
Yin He ignored everything around him, focusing only on whether Zheng Nianru was injured. Elder Can, in desperation, pushed Elder Su hurriedly.
Elder Su felt uneasy, wondering why he was being pushed at such a ti.
But with so many years of understanding between them, how could he not know Elder Can’s intention? Elder Can was asking him to be cannon fodder.
The Young Master’s mind was not on them at all; their interference would be a death sentence.
What is there to consider! Elder Can glared across.
Consideration? This isn’t about consideration, showing loyalty and being sent to die are not the sa.
Elder Su still wanted to say sothing, but Elder Can kicked him out. Elder Su wanted to cry out but feared that the Young Master might hear, which would also be akin to a death sentence, so he ended up standing in front of everyone.
"Young Master, you go first, I’ll hold this off," Elder Su shouted bravely, and upon hearing this, the youth picked up Zheng Nianru and was ready to leave first.
Elder Su looked at Elder Can, telling him, look what I said, what did I say?!
Elder Can imdiately gave Elder Su a look. The dark monster, although slow-moving, had a very wide range, and in the next mont, just as the black monster began to creep, the edge of its nace reached Elder Su.
Elder Su let out a cry and fell "heroically" to the ground, landing right in front of Yin He.
Elder Can rolled his eyes at him. Was that exaggeration necessary? Couldn’t he have waited for the monster to co closer and suffer a bit more to make it look more convincing?
Seeing this, Elder Su imdiately lay on the ground. Why don’t you do it yourself?
"Young Master, run— the creature has gone berserk!" Elder Can shouted loudly. Upon hearing Elder Can’s voice, the black monster finally noticed Yin He among the crowd and imdiately rushed towards him.
"Run—" Ju Nanyi, too, could no longer care about anything else. Just now, seeing the creature throwing Elder Su, he knew it was powerful and stepped forward imdiately.
Zheng Nianru also faintly discerned a shadow in the darkness, seemingly rged with the darkness itself, because the shadow moved.
"Aaaaah—" The disciples of Ghoul Ravine scread in succession. Not waiting for the black monster to approach, they had already surged over. "Give the person." Ju Nanyi imdiately stood in front of Yin He, and Zheng Nianru quickly nodded in agreent. Yes, yes, if Yin He and this creature were to fight, she would inevitably be affected.
Yin He’s expression was cold. No, the person was safest in his hands. Who else knew this monster better than him?
Seeing this, Elder Can thought that in such a critical mont in the past, how could he allow his Young Master to waste ti like this? It was dangerous, but now, Elder Can was hoping for this.
"Lord Ju, the safety of Madam Young Master is in the hands of Young Master. Only our Young Master can ensure her safety." Elder Can, not deeming the fire high enough, stepped forward to stoke it again.
All of the black monster’s attention was on the youth. Seeing that the youth now held another person in his hands, and that posture made him confused. In his mory, aside from himself, there was no one else who could be so close to the young man.
And furthermore...
The black monster trembled all over the next mont because, because it sensed sothing different from this woman, to be precise, it felt sothing different about this woman from the young man’s senses.
This feeling, it was just like the bond the young man once had with it, a feeling that drove the monster mad. Why the young man was unwilling, it vaguely sensed and did not know exactly, but it understood sothing very clearly.
"Young Master, Young Master, it’s bad, that monster seems to have so powerful move." Elder Can was also getting panicked now, he had clearly seen the Young Master was about to deal with this black monster, right?
The young man also sensed sothing off about the black monster, he felt that after being sealed for so many years, it wasn’t panicked, its strength had beco stronger than a few years ago.
Everyone watched in fear as the monster shuddered in the darkness, the black smoke around it seeming to solidify, instantly turning the surrounding trees into black ash.
All the disciples of Ghoul Ravine retreated together, fearing that moving forward would turn them into black ash just like the trees around them.
The young man’s cold gaze never left the monster, while his mind was filled with the monster’s questioning voice over and over again.
"Is it her? Is it because of her?"
"It’s her—"
"It must be her—"
The young man felt that his initial thought was correct, he should have struck without hesitation, killed the monster imdiately—he also didn’t know how to persuade otherwise.
Zheng Nianru frowned slightly, seemingly able to sense sothing, she felt inexplicably that the monster was very angry, very furious.
Zheng Nianru looked puzzledly at the young man, at least until now the young man’s hand hadn’t shaken, he clearly wasn’t scared of it.
"Do you have a grudge with it?" Zheng Nianru asked puzzledly, what Zheng Nianru did not know was that this monster had once rged with the young man, and at a ti when Zheng Nianru was unaware, the young man had slowly begun transferring that bond onto her, naturally transferring it to Zheng Nianru as well.
So, Zheng Nianru’s senseless feeling was very accurate, sothing others couldn’t sense.
Seeing Zheng Nianru ask, sensing that she might be scared, he couldn’t care less about thinking any further.
"Don’t be scared, it can’t hurt you—" The young man had just started speaking, but what he ant had already rapidly reached the black monster’s hands, the black monster beca furious, and instantly charged recklessly towards everyone, the black smoke sweeping everything in an instant.
"Quick, fall back—" In such a mont, Ju Nanyi couldn’t maintain his previous resolve and imdiately had his people join the battle. Ju Nanyi rushed towards Young Master Yin He, but the next mont, Elder Can pulled him back.
"Only our Young Master can deal with this thing—" There was no need to rush to death.
Ju Nanyi imdiately looked at Elder Can, from the initial doubt to now, the only thing Ju Nanyi was certain of was that Elder Can and Elder Su wanted Yin He to deal with this thing.
But why?
Elder Can wouldn’t harm Yin He, so there was only one possibility, that killing this monster was beneficial for Young Master Yin He, for Ghoul Ravine, but Yin He didn’t want to kill it?!
So, this thing must have so relation to Yin He.
Ju Nanyi imdiately thought that this monster was set free by Master Huo Yi, its purpose was to deal with Ghoul Ravine.
Where exactly did things go wrong?
