Chapter 352 Bats
Chapter 352 Bats
It turned out to be a group of bats.
This group of bats looked no different from ordinary bats in shape and size, except that their blood-red eyes glowed with bloodthirsty light.
There were no complicated movements in the attacks of these bats; they just kept coming like a tide, pouncing on them madly with their sharp teeth and claws.
Cheng Mingyuan and Yu Qiuyi were instantly drawn into the black vortex. They waved their weapons and tried their best to avoid the attacks of the bats.
However, there were too many bats and they were shot down wave after wave.
Under such circumstances, Cheng Mingyuan, who was weaker than Yu Qiuyi, was soon found an opening by some bats.
As a result, Cheng Mingyuan's clothes were soon torn in several places by the bats, and one bat even managed to get close to Cheng Mingyuan's body.
It's strange to say, although he was wearing a robe made of high-level spiritual weapons, when the teeth and claws of those bats touched his robe, it was as if they were touching a piece of paper and they were able to penetrate it easily.
Therefore, the next moment when a bat approached him, Cheng Mingyuan groaned.
Only because the bat that managed to get close to him bit directly into his flesh.
Even though Cheng Mingyuan reacted quickly and killed the bat the moment it bit him, he still felt that the bat had sucked some of his blood. The most frightening thing was that the bat also sucked away a bit of his soul.
Although the loss of that bit of soul would not have any impact on him, if there were another ten or so bats like this coming to feed on him, the situation would be difficult to predict.
Cheng Mingyuan, who knew this, did not hide it, but immediately reminded Yu Qiuyi: "Third Sister, be careful, don't let these bats get close to you, these bats can suck people's blood and spirit."
Yu Qiuyi nodded and said, "Okay, I understand."
Yu Qiuyi saw that the number of bats seemed to show no signs of decreasing, and he didn't want to continue this meaningless confrontation.
She planned to wrap herself with the Wood Spirit Flame and get out directly.
Based on the fact that Yu Qiuyi had no memory of being targeted by Cheng Mingyuan before and Cheng Mingyuan's reminder to her just now, Yu Qiuyi pondered for a moment and decided to give Cheng Mingyuan a ride within her ability.
However, Yu Qiuyi gave up this idea the next moment, because when she was thinking about these things, her steps stopped, and Cheng Mingyuan had approached her because of the time she paused.
The problem with the number of bats was not only discovered by Yu Qiuyi, but also by Cheng Mingyuan.
Faced with such a large number of bats, and the fact that they could easily tear through his magic weapons and robes, Cheng Mingyuan knew clearly that no matter how many tricks he had, he would eventually be consumed and killed.
So, when he discovered that the bats were particularly thirsty for blood, he came up with a vicious idea.
That was to injure Yu Qiuyi, let Yu Qiuyi's blood attract the attention of most of the bats, and he would take the opportunity to escape.
Although he felt sorry for Third Senior Sister, but if he had to choose between himself and Third Senior Sister, he would still choose himself, so he could only feel sorry for Third Senior Sister.
And his reminder was not meant to be a sincere reminder to Yu Qiuyi, but to make Yu Qiuyi less guarded against him.
So that his plan can proceed smoothly.
Cheng Mingyuan is like this. When there is no danger, he always speaks and acts without thinking. But once his life is really in danger, his brain works very quickly, which allows him to find a usable method in such a short time.
At this moment, as soon as he got close to Yu Qiuyi, he immediately wanted to attack Yu Qiuyi unexpectedly.
However, although Yu Qiuyi's feeling improved after his reminder, he still had doubts about their identities in his heart. Coupled with the disgust he felt when he saw Cheng Mingyuan at the beginning, Yu Qiuyi still felt uneasy about Cheng Mingyuan.
Therefore, when he noticed that Cheng Mingyuan was suddenly approaching, he reflexively distanced himself from Cheng Mingyuan, and thus avoided the dagger that Cheng Mingyuan stabbed at him with his left hand.
The moment they distanced themselves from each other, she discovered Cheng Mingyuan's thoughts. Yu Qiuyi's face suddenly darkened. At this time, she was no longer polite and directly controlled Shengfeng to attack Cheng Mingyuan.
Cheng Mingyuan didn't expect Yu Qiuyi to dodge so cleverly. His plan failed, and before he could come to his senses, he found that Yu Qiuyi was controlling Shengfeng to stab him. He quickly dodged and shouted in a questioning tone: "Third Sister, what are you doing?"
However, even though Cheng Mingyuan dodged, Shengfeng still cut a bloody wound on him. When the blood gushed out of the wound, the bats became restless as if they were suddenly stimulated by something.
Yu Qiuyi sneered.
"What am I doing? Don't you know what's going on?"
Seeing the bats in such a state, Cheng Mingyuan was frightened. At this time, in order to let Yu Qiuyi help him, he pretended to be ignorant of what he originally wanted to do.
He shouted bitterly, "Third Senior Sister, what's wrong with you? What did I do wrong to make you treat me like this?"
Perhaps knowing that his dagger had been spotted by Yu Qiu, Cheng Mingyuan waved the dagger to resist the bats, and said with a look of sudden enlightenment: "Senior Sister, do you mind that my dagger appeared behind you just now?"
"Does Senior Sister suspect that I have done something wrong to you because of the appearance of the dagger?"
"If that's the case, then you've misjudged me. The reason why my dagger appeared behind you just now was because I saw bats approaching you and I wanted to get rid of them for you." Cheng Mingyuan argued convincingly.
Then, he continued with a firm tone: "Senior sister, I have never had any bad thoughts towards you. Senior sister, you misunderstood me."
Yu Qiuyi ignored Cheng Mingyuan after hearing this. Seeing more and more bats surrounding Cheng Mingyuan, she didn't want to waste any more energy on dealing with Cheng Mingyuan. Instead, she planned to quickly escape from here while most of the bats' attention was on Cheng Mingyuan.
Thinking of this, Yu Qiuyi directly wrapped his body with the Wood Spirit Flame and left without looking back.
Although Cheng Mingyuan was surrounded by a large number of bats and could not see Yu Qiuyi's situation, his perception was still there. Therefore, he knew as soon as Yu Qiuyi left. At this time, he also discovered that there was something on Yu Qiuyi's body that made the bats dare not approach Yu Qiuyi.
For a moment, Cheng Mingyuan felt a sense of regret. If he had known that Yu Qiuyi had something that could help him leave smoothly, he would not have done that.
However, this was all Yu Qiuyi's fault for keeping the thing that could keep the bats away from him unattended.
