Chapter 610: The Escape was Very Decisive
"Whoosh!" Nangong Qi turned and fled, decisively, without a hint of hesitation.
Dealing with Gao Fei and Immortal Master Huang was already challenging enough, and with Shangguan Yunyue joining them... Nangong Qi had no chance of winning! So he fled decisively!
A true man can bend and stretch! Faced with an unbeatable War God of an opponent, choosing to escape was not shameful at all! Staying to fight to the death would have been foolish!
"Where do you think you're going!" Immortal Master Huang lifted his foot to chase, but Gao Fei stopped him.
"Forget it, don't chase him," Gao Fei shook his head. "Be careful of being ambushed! It's urgent that we leave this place!" After persuading Immortal Master Huang, Gao Fei turned to Shangguan Yunyue, his gaze gentle and his lips curved in a smile, "How about that? Didn't expect me to come rescue you, did you? Are you especially moved now? Come on, give me a hug!" As he said this, Gao Fei extended his arms.
To Gao Fei's surprise...
Shangguan Yunyue actually walked over and wrapped her arms around him.
"Uh?" Gao Fei froze, what's happening? Am I dreaming? Shangguan Yunyue taking the initiative to give a hug? This doesn't fit her character at all?
"Gao Fei, thank you," Shangguan Yunyue spoke softly. "Thank you for coming to rescue me! I wasn't wrong about you; you are a good man worthy of entrusting one's life to."
"Ah... you just realized?" Gao Fei grinned broadly. "Actually, I have many good points, like valuing loyalty, being affectionate, kind-hearted, respectful to the old and loving toward the young, saving the dying, helping the injured... Ah, I have too many merits to count them all right now."
"Pfft!"
Shangguan Yunyue burst into laughter. "Who boasts about themselves like that? Your skin is really thick, isn't it?"
"I'm telling the truth!" Gao Fei insisted seriously. "Really! I'm not lying to you!"
"Hey, listen..." Immortal Master Huang, who was standing aside, couldn't stand it anymore. "Can you keep it short? Stop dawdling; we're still not out of danger. Once we leave Piaomiao Palace, you can find a secluded place, have a good chat, and be all lovey-dovey without anyone disturbing you," Immortal Master Huang added, "If you're really worried, I'll stand guard for you, but let's get one thing straight - you'll have to pay me."
Shangguan Yunyue's face turned red, and then she stepped out of Gao Fei's embrace.
Gao Fei was inwardly exasperated, the good atmosphere ruined by Immortal Master Huang! He glared fiercely at Immortal Master Huang, "Could you talk less; nobody would think you're mute."
"I was just kindly reminding you..."
"No need for your reminders; I'm very clear about what's going on."
"Alright! It was my fault for being nosy! Continue with your lovey-dovey stuff, I'll pretend I didn't see anything!"
"..." Gao Fei was so angry he puffed up his cheeks and glared, oh, that's wrong, Gao Fei didn't have a beard, it should be... he was red-faced and thick-necked with anger.
"Enough," Shangguan Yunyue pulled Gao Fei aside. "This friend here is right, we must hurry and leave this place! I understand Nangong Qi too well, he won't let this go after suffering a setback, he might be setting up a trap already..."
"There's nothing to be afraid of," Gao Fei said nonchalantly. "The poison in your body has been cured, and your cultivation has been restored. If you lead the way, no one can stop us."
"You're thinking too simply," Shangguan Yunyue said with a wry smile, shaking her head. "The poison in my body is gone, but my cultivation... hasn't fully recovered."
"What?" Gao Fei was stunned. "How is that possible?"
"I was poisoned for too long, my Dantian and Meridians suffered severe damage, it will be hard to mend them in a short period..."
"Just tell me clearly, how much of your cultivation has recovered?"
"At most fifty percent."
"Fifty percent?" Gao Fei's face twitched fiercely. "Now we're in trouble!"
"Let's go, don't waste any more time," Immortal Master Huang urged. "Hurry up! If we delay any longer, we won't be able to leave..."
"Go!" Gao Fei gritted his teeth. "We three should split up and move..."
"No way!" Both Immortal Master Huang and Shangguan Yunyue disagreed. "The three of us should stick together! At least we can look out for each other!"
"My cultivation is weak, following you will only be a burden..." Gao Fei hadn't finished his sentence when Shangguan Yunyue interrupted him.
Shangguan Yunyue, with a stern expression, looked at Gao Fei. "You risked your life to save me, I definitely can't leave you behind to escape alone! If we go, we go together, if we die, we die together!"
"Right," Immortal Master Huang nodded. "We came together, we should leave together."
"You guys are... sigh, all right, let's all go together." Gao Fei smiled bitterly and nodded. "I just hope I won't become a burden to you."
The three of them discussed briefly, then dashed toward the direction of the main gate.
Shangguan Yunyue, who was familiar with the layout of Piaomiao Palace, led the way. Immortal Master Huang and Gao Fei followed closely behind her. They sprinted all the way, getting closer and closer to the main gate...
"Swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh!"
Hundreds of experts flew out from both sides, surrounding Shangguan Yunyue and the others, with the leader being Nangong Qi.
"I've been waiting here for a long time!" Nangong Qi arrogantly shouted. "Surrender if you don't want to die!"
"Surrender my ass," Gao Fei cursed as soon as he spoke. "Nangong Qi! You are nothing but a thorough villain! A no-good villain! Today I will act as the hand of justice and destroy you! Go reincarnate as a pig or a dog in your next life!"
"Even being a pig or a dog is too good for him," Immortal Master Huang scoffed coldly. "He should become excrement, yes, just excrement!"
"Ah, that's a good suggestion," Gao Fei nodded seriously. "Let's settle on that, let Nangong Qi be reincarnated as excrement! But what animal's excrement?"
"Obviously that of a pig or a dog," Immortal Master Huang replied without hesitation.
"Hmm, let's make it a dog's, as a dog's excrement smells worse," Gao Fei said.
Shangguan Yunyue was both annoyed and amused by these two... she was at a loss for words, their mouths were just too sharp.
"Wow, you're making me so angry!" Nangong Qi shrieked furiously. "Attack! Chop these two men into mincemeat! As for Shangguan Yunyue..." Nangong Qi paused here. "Try to capture her alive!" At this point, Nangong Qi still couldn't let go of Shangguan Yunyue.
"Swoosh swoosh swoosh!"
Hundreds of experts charged at them all at once.
"Kill!"
Gao Fei, Shangguan Yunyue, and Immortal Master Huang faced the onslaught fearlessly.
A great battle commenced...
The outcome of three against hundreds was obvious.
Shangguan Yunyue and Immortal Master Huang could barely protect themselves, but Gao Fei was in danger... In just a moment, Gao Fei sustained dozens of wounds. There were ones caused by fists, kicks, and weapon slashes... One of the wounds on his back was so deep that bone was visible, and blood gushed forth like water, quickly staining his clothing red.
Shangguan Yunyue and Immortal Master Huang were tightly engaged by a group of experts and couldn't free themselves to rescue Gao Fei. Seeing Gao Fei in critical danger, both of them became frantic, especially Shangguan Yunyue, whose eyes turned bloodshot with urgency. She let out a long howl to the sky, "Listen! If Gao Fei suffers any mishap, I'll massacre everyone in Piaomiao Palace, kill you all, and your families as well!!!"
"And me!" Immortal Master Huang roared angrily. "If Gao Fei dies, I'll make you pay with blood for this blood debt!"
