Chapter 175 Everyone has their own agenda
He was seen flying quickly towards the towering tree, and then circling around the trunk of the tree like a butterfly flying through flowers.
The golden dragon behind it followed closely behind, but because Qi Yu kept shuttling back and forth among the branches and making sharp turns from time to time, every time he was about to catch up, he let the dragon escape.
Qi Yu's method was indeed very good. He took advantage of the difference in size and flexibility between himself and the opponent to maneuver.
Qi Yu felt that if he hadn't been carrying someone with him, he would have gotten rid of the golden dragon behind him long ago.
At this time, Teacher Huo had an ugly look on his face. He kept controlling the giant spirit liquid dragon to chase Qi Yu, following him as he kept rampaging between the branches of the towering tree, causing the entire giant tree to tremble constantly.
And because there was no Zhang Xu's magic power to protect it, the giant tree's self-healing ability after being attacked was greatly reduced. As they continued to pursue it, a large number of branches were broken and shattered, and wood chips and leaves fell like rain.
"You're so slippery. Well, well, since you like to hide, I'll destroy this giant tree and see where you can hide."
After Teacher Huo finished speaking, he controlled the golden spirit liquid dragon and crashed into the trunk of the giant tree next to him. As its huge body hit the trunk, the whole tree instantly made a loud rumbling sound.
The impacted part was also dyed golden by the spiritual liquid. Then, as it hit for the second time, it touched the place where it had just hit, and cracks began to spread.
Qi Yufei was in the air, observing the movements of the giant dragon behind him. When he saw it give up the chase and start destroying the giant tree, he felt something was wrong. He quickly turned around and plunged into the layers of buildings next to it.
After all, if the giant tree was gone, his method of maneuvering would not work. Therefore, Qi Yu had to keep as much distance as possible before it started chasing him again.
But it was not known whether Qi Yu did it on purpose or it was a coincidence, the building complex he flew into at this time was exactly the area where Wu Yi was hiding.
Qi Yu's action frightened Wu Yi, and he couldn't help cursing in his heart: "Oh my god! Brother Yu, don't bring that thing to me!"
But things went against his wishes. Qi Yu flew straight towards the direction where he was hiding, as if he had turned on the navigation. Seeing this, Wu Yi couldn't help but complain: "Damn! Brother Yu, I just didn't cheer you up in the battle just now, so why do you want to retaliate like this?!"
After saying that, he wanted to get up and leave here, and go to a distant place to watch the battle. After all, no one wanted to stay in the center of the battle to avoid being affected.
Qi Yu, who was flying in the air, knew nothing about this. He subconsciously flew towards the direction where there were more buildings. His purpose was to use the numerous buildings to confuse his vision and hearing.
But it would be impossible to get rid of him with just this. The most likely result is that he used this building complex to hide inside and then sneaked away when he was not paying attention. As for dragging Wu Yi into the water, that was purely a coincidence.
As he moved between buildings, he finally picked an inconspicuous building and rushed in. As fate would have it, the building he entered was the one where Wu Yi was hiding.
At this time, Wu Yi on the roof was terrified and felt very uneasy. He just wanted to leave quickly and complete the task while lying down. Why should he participate in the battle?
"Brother Yu, Brother Yu, why didn't you choose any other one? You just chose my hiding place. Thank you so much!" Wu Yi thought angrily in his heart, then he stood up and climbed out of the secret place on the roof and was about to leave.
In fact, it was not Qi Yu's fault. After all, he had made a quick tour and found that the house where Wu Yi lived was the only one that was relatively inconspicuous and suitable for hiding.
Qi Yu kicked the window open with the spikes on his feet and entered the room. He took a quick look around and found that the cabinets and chairs in the room were covered with a thick layer of dust, spider webs were hanging in the corners, and the surrounding walls were moldy due to moisture, creating a dilapidated scene.
"It seems like no one has lived here for a long time, or is it because it's inside a formation?" Qi Yu muttered to himself in confusion, but he couldn't verify more. The most important thing now was to resolve this crisis.
Qi Yu used his wings to fan away the dust on the bed, then gently placed the weak Zhang Xu in his arms on the bed and asked softly, "Teacher, how are you?"
Zhang Xu slightly opened his eyes, raised his pale face due to vomiting blood, and then looked at Qi Yu, who looked weird in front of him, with complicated eyes. Then he shook his head and said, "Don't worry about me. I won't die for a while, but I can't fight."
As she spoke, she took out several bottles of healing potions from her ring, drank them while refining them, and healed her injuries.
In fact, just as she said, she had already lost the ability to fight. The powerful impact of the golden dragon was so powerful that she not only vomited blood, but also broke several ribs. The fact that she could hold on without making a sound showed that she was determined.
Qi Yu stood by silently, his eyes fixed on the window. Just as he was preparing for battle, Zhang Xu suddenly opened his eyes and said, "Xiao Yu, the Tree of Life can't hold on any longer. If it doesn't work, leave me alone and run first."
"Stop talking, teacher! I won't abandon you." Qi Yu said righteously, and then fluttered his wings, looking ready for battle.
Zhang Xu opened his mouth but said nothing. Then he lowered his head and continued to recover from his injuries.
In the eyes of outsiders, this scene is a scene of deep love between a master and his apprentice. In order to protect his master, the apprentice risked his life to save him and protected him with his life. For the sake of his apprentice's safety, the master resolutely let the apprentice go first and he would cover the latter. What a tear-jerking scene!
But is this really the truth? No!
The reason why Zhang Xu wanted Qi Yu to run first was to let him lure away the spiritual liquid dragon outside. Originally, she was a little worried that Qi Yu might be in danger and die, thus affecting her experiment.
After what happened just now, she discovered that her apprentice seemed to have hidden a lot from her, and his ability to escape was no less than hers.
So now she is a little suspicious. This kid should still have a way to save his life, but he has not been forced into a desperate situation, so he is hiding his ability.
Thinking of this, Zhang Xu suddenly felt that he had risked his life to protect him before, and he felt very depressed, so he wanted to lure the enemy first. After all, who would be willing to die if they could live?
Qi Yu also had ulterior motives. The reason why he wanted to save Zhang Xu and not leave her behind was, firstly, that he wanted to gain Zhang Xu's favor so that he could have a good life in the academy in the future, and secondly, he didn't believe that Zhang Xu didn't have any trump cards left.
How could a person who was full of secrets not leave a way out for herself? Even though she was in such a mess, she might have something that could turn the tide of the battle, but she just couldn't bear to give it up, so she didn't use it.
Of course, the most important thing is that he knew that once he separated from Zhang Xu, Teacher Huo would definitely come after him. After all, he had made him so embarrassed, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that their relationship was basically an irreconcilable one.
So there is absolutely no way he would leave Zhang Xu for even a step. After all, two people are better than one.
