A powerful blow from several demon cultivators landed on him with part of the Cultivation Technique striking his body. He endured it with all his cultivation, already coughing up blood and with trembling, bloody lips glaring at those demon cultivators.
The people behind him were also stunned. What's going on? Is it really that hard to dodge? Even those two guys knew to dodge, what does it mean that you took it head-on without dodging?
Wei Mo and the others in front of the mirror-image were also wide-eyed. What does it mean that he was hit by those demon cultivators?
Some people had already rushed to support the square-faced leader and inspect his injuries, finding him severely injured. Instantly, someone coldly glared at those demon cultivators, where did these beasts come from, daring to hit people from the East Victory Royal Court!
Those demon cultivators were also a bit puzzled. They didn't understand either. We hardly know each other, what does it mean for you to take a beating head-on?
But they didn't care about that. What difference does it make if they're Li Hongjiu's comrades; an order for absolute elimination has already been issued from above.
Their eyes were mostly fixed on the Black Flag in Shi Chun's hand, which astonishingly blocked the attack he had failed to dodge. Several powerful attacks hit the Black Flag and vanished without a trace, without even a sound.
"Could it be the Boundless Banner?" one demon cultivator exclaimed in suspicion.
Li Hongjiu, who was escaping alongside Shi Chun, also turned his head in surprise to look at the Black Flag fluttering beside him, exclaiming with admiration, "What a treasure!"
Shi Chun then glanced back at the Black Lotus Dharma Aspect protecting them and found that instead of being provoked into fighting, those two groups regarded them as primary targets and chased them swiftly. He lamented, "It's over. It seems there's no escaping our fate this time."
Li Hongjiu, glancing back, suddenly held his sword inversely, and with two fingers gathered a droplet of water, pointing it towards the brightening horizon. With a light stroke of his hand, he softly said, "Borrow the light!"
Immediately, that droplet of water brightened intensely, becoming brighter and brighter, until suddenly, a blinding light exploded.
The dazzling brightness made Shi Chun close his eyes urgently. His last impression was a field of whiteness before him, seeing nothing at all, only feeling himself being rapidly flown away by Li Hongjiu.
He wasn't the only one unable to open his eyes; those chasing them also seemed to go blind momentarily, standing guard at where they were.
In front of the mirror-image, Wei Mo and the others exclaimed in dismay.
An inn in Dazhi City suddenly burst with radiant light, catching many people's attention, causing some to quickly fly over to check it out, including the red-clothed woman who was also craning her neck out the window pavilion.
In the midst of flying away rapidly, Shi Chun quickly sensed many Mana fluctuations sweeping towards them, then suddenly felt them diving. Upon opening his eyes, he found himself descending onto the rough sea waves with Li Hongjiu.
Li Hongjiu released his arm, returned both swords to their sheaths but didn't put them away, strapping them on both sides of his waist, then pulled out a wine gourd. With people far off searching, he drank a few gulps boldly, saying, "The disparity in cultivation is too great, there's no running away. Damn it, who exactly did you offend?"
Shi Chun, brandishing the Black Flag, shrieked, "The ones attacking aren't after me; they're after you. I'm the one dragged down by you, alright? I mean, do you still have time to argue about this, think of a way to escape." He buried his head and pulled out Magical Treasures like the Three Corpses Mirror.
Li Hongjiu didn't have time to argue with him either. Seeing that the figures in the distance had locked onto them and were closing in, and knowing that those people's first move would surely be a killing strike, he immediately put away the wine gourd and stepped forward, facing them calmly.
His robe billowed in the wind as if about to ascend to the heavens, with a wave of Mana spreading around him, arms outstretched invitingly, embracing the crashing sea waves, he ceremoniously declared in a loud voice, "Heaven and Earth in unison, tides rise and fall, borrow a tide!"
