Xiandao Linglong

Chapter 223 Escape

After the battle, Medusa couldn't recover for a long time. She knew that at the last moment, it was her sister who saved her again, but the price was that her sister, who had been afraid of pain since childhood, cut off her arm with her own hands!

But just a moment later, the consciousness of the powerful demon who had been suppressed for a short time counterattacked again. If it were not for the fact that he had just been resurrected, there might be variables, and the outcome of today's bloody battle would be unknown!

"Your Majesty! Where is this?"

As the tribesmen who had survived the violent explosion behind them gradually woke up, their confused and helpless faces looked at each other and the devastation around them, as if they had no memory of this life-and-death battle at all.

Medusa, who was exhausted both physically and mentally at this moment, suppressed the pain in her heart, stood up, picked up the Queen's scepter that had fallen casually beside her with her trembling arm that was still dripping with blood, and held it high!

"From now on... call me Her Majesty!"

When the powerful snakemen around saw the Queen's Scepter in Medusa's hand, they suddenly felt an inexplicable urge to surrender flowing through their blood, and they all knelt on the ground!

"Her Majesty! Long live the Queen!"

Looking at the powerful snakemen whose demonic aura had vanished, Medusa slammed her scepter to the ground and said, "Pass on my order. Assemble the entire clan and hunt down that kid named Ye Qi. I want him dead or alive!"

……

At night, in a dilapidated town, on a street that had long been deserted, a young woman was dragging a bloody boy on her back. These two were none other than Le Qingqing and Ye Qi, who had managed to sneak away from under Medusa's nose during the chaos.

Under the impact of the violent explosion, Ye Qi, who was closest to the source of the explosion, naturally suffered the greatest impact. Fortunately, Mu Lao came to his rescue and helped him to withstand most of the damage. However, even the last bit of the residual power shook his body and he finally fainted.

The blood on his body looked scary, but when Yue Qingqing checked, she found that it was not a wound caused by the explosion, but blood that overflowed from the body due to the expansion of energy in the body!

"In this huge city, I can't find a place to stay. It seems I have to sleep on the street tonight!" Le Qingqing collapsed exhausted in the corner under a roof, talking to herself while placing Ye Qi's still drowsy head on her thighs.

Looking at the cheeks whose beauty could not be covered by the blood, and the brows that were wrinkled from time to time, he unconsciously reached out and gently stroked the brows to relax them.

"Water...cough..."

In the silent night, a very hoarse voice suddenly pulled the girl back to her senses. After hearing clearly that it was Ye Qi's voice, she subconsciously shook his head, but found that there was no sign of him opening his eyes. However, he saw that his lips were trembling. Although the voice became extremely small, it could still be heard in the hoarse voice that he kept shouting the word "water"!

"Water...where is the water here?"

Yue Qingqing stood up while talking to herself, and walked a few steps around to explore, but along the way, no inn was open, and no residents were willing to take her in. At this moment, there was nothing on the street except scattered fallen leaves and the breeze that kept blowing from all directions!

"Water... I want to drink water..." Ye Qi's weak and hoarse voice still echoed in Yue Qingqing's ears.

Le Qingqing, who was stamping her feet in anxiety, was also at a loss. Where could she find drinkable water in such a place?

Walking back to Ye Qi, looking at the pale cheeks and dry lips, Le Qingqing's brows, which were furrowed because she couldn't find water, suddenly relaxed, and a curve appeared at the corner of her mouth. Suddenly, she raised her knife and took a breath of cold air in pain, leaving a deep wound on her arm.

As a bloody wound appeared on the fair skin, a stream of blood flowed out in an instant and finally dripped into Ye Qi's slightly opened mouth.

The breeze was still blowing gently, and a feeling of dizziness unconsciously appeared on Le Qingqing's body. She knew that this was because she was already tired and now she had lost some blood. Seeing that his brow had relaxed and his breathing had gradually become stronger, she tore off a corner of silk gauze from her dress, bandaged the wound on her arm, then brushed her sleeves to cover the wound, and continued to lean against the corner, forcing open her tired eyes that might close at any time, waiting for dawn every minute and every second!

But in the quiet streets of the night, Le Qingqing fell asleep unknowingly. When she opened her eyes again, she was already being carried on Ye Qi's back, walking in the endless desert.

Looking at the spinning world with a hazy vision, I could only see a stone mountain with several overlapping shadows. There seemed to be no soft sand like the one under my feet, but loess and rocks were still mixed together to form an uneven earth wall.

When I got closer and took a closer look, I found that it was not so much a wall as it was a bunch of small hills made of yellow earth, and in the middle of those small hills was a stone mine that had been mined and collapsed.

The difference is that these stones are very different from ordinary rocks. They are white like clouds in the sky, giving people a soft feeling. But when Ye Qi put her on the stone and sat down, he found that the stone was extremely smooth and round.

Just as Ye Qi saw that Le Qingqing had regained consciousness and was about to ask about her health, an ugly man suddenly said in a fierce tone, "If you still can't mine enough today, the men will be sent to the Serpent People as blood feed, and the women will be sent to the Qinghua Shop to be dried and ground into incense!"

"Who are these people? What's wrong with me?"

After hearing what the man said, Yue Qingqing's heart trembled. She didn't know how she could be in such a bad condition now. She was fine yesterday, but when she woke up, she was so tired that she couldn't open her eyes. If it was really as the man said, she was doomed today.

Ye Qi looked at Le Qingqing, whose face was filled with worry. He reached out and stroked her flowing hair. Then he leaned over and whispered in her ear, "When I woke up this morning, I found that the snake people were wantonly hunting us in various towns. I had no choice but to temporarily blend in with these miners, but..."

Just when Ye Qi was whispering in Yue Qingqing's ear, he suddenly felt a pain in his shoulder and felt someone kicking him. When he turned around, he saw that it was the supervisor who had just said not to slack off!

"Boy! Who are you? Why haven't I seen you before?"
