The road is right under your feet

Chapter 229 Can’t Leave

"Ah!" Bai Xing pretended to be scared, rolled over, and crawled under the belly of the thick-armored rhinoceros, wrapping his limbs around the rhino saddle and holding on to it tightly.

The black-robed man's blood was boiling and he finally couldn't bear it anymore. He spat out a mouthful of blood and his body was unstable, as if he would fall from the air at any time.

At the same time, the speed at which the formation absorbed blood, energy and spiritual power slowed down.

Soon, the thick-armored rhinoceros carried Bai Xing to the center of the formation. A black light flashed in Bai Xing's eyes, and a black spiritual power quietly penetrated into the ground.

Then, Bai Xing tapped the thick-armored horn rhinoceros again, and the thick-armored horn rhinoceros suddenly became more manic, jumping wildly on the spot.

Cracks began to appear on the ground and the earth was cracking.

In the violent shaking, Bai Xing was nearly thrown out. Through the crack in the ground, he could vaguely see a hint of red inside. Then, a whistling sound came from underground.

It's like being entangled by something and trying to get rid of it.

It immediately alarmed everyone present.

The hand of a man in black stopped one centimeter in front of Wu Yaxin's face. Xiao Tao was in a mess and was knocked to the ground again, leaving a bloody mark of several meters on the ground. Wu Qingshuang had already collapsed on the ground, his eyes were unfocused.

This sound instantly drew the attention of several people.

Wu Qingshuang looked frightened and confused, "No!"

In full view of everyone, Bai Xing slid off the thick-armored horned rhinoceros.

The black-robed man's figure swayed slightly. He had consumed too much spiritual energy and could only barely maintain his control of the sword.

He laughed loudly and said grimly: "You have ruined my formation, so this is what you deserve. My Hong'er will be hungry now."

However, the next second, he could no longer laugh as the formation in front of him disappeared in an instant. Without the return of spiritual energy, the spiritual energy in his body was instantly drained and his body fell straight down.

With a bang, dust rose all over the ground.

As Bai Xing fell, a golden light flashed on his fingertips, and the roar from underground stopped abruptly.

Then, the whole world was quiet and everyone's eyes widened.

Bai Xing rolled on the ground for a few times, turned around and pretended to be scared, and pointed at the crack tremblingly: "Monster...Monster, there is a monster that eats people down there."

This shout successfully drew everyone's attention back. Upon hearing this, many servants moved back and away from that piece of land.

Blood kept oozing out of the black-robed man's mouth, and he was obviously badly hit by the backlash. His hand was trembling as he pointed at Bai Xing.

"It's... it's you. You killed Hong'er. I... I will make you pay with your life!"

Then he looked at the two black-clad figures not far away and said kindly, "Sang'er, Yan'er, come to me, come and kill him for me."

Hao Sang's mouth curled up into an evil smile, "Yes, Master."

He let go of Wu Yaxin, tied her up instead, carried her on his shoulder and flew down. He put the person on the ground, then turned around and helped the black-robed man on the ground up.

Meng Yan said nothing, glanced at Xiao Tao on the ground, and turned away.

He had just walked halfway when he stopped, as if he was frozen in time.

Not far in front of him, he saw a sharp sword piercing through the black-robed man's chest. He recognized that sword as he had fought with it countless times.

He looked blank, surprised but not surprised.

The black-robed man's eyes were wide open, as if he was dying with his eyes open.

“Hahaha.” A crazy laugh echoed between heaven and earth. “I’ve waited for this opportunity for a long time, and finally I got it, hahaha.”

He turned to look at Shirahoshi, "It's all thanks to you, old man."

At this moment, Wu Qingshuang, who was not far away, came to her senses. She searched the ground for a while and finally found the jade flute. She quietly moved over and held it tightly with trembling hands.

Her eyes were fixed on the two men in black in front of her and Wu Yaxin on the ground. She played the jade flute, and suddenly the thick-armored rhinoceros closest to Wu Yaxin seemed to have been powered on. It climbed up from the ground and became full of energy.

In the blink of an eye, it rushed to Wu Yaxin's side, used the horns on its head to push her onto its back, and ran wildly without stopping, all the way to where Wu Qingshuang was.

Wu Qingshuang carried his sister down from the rhino and patted its body to comfort it.

She hugged the unconscious Wu Yaxin tightly, her eyes bloodshot, "Third sister, you have always protected me since I was a child. This time, it's my turn to protect you."

The hostage was lost, but Hao Sang didn't care.

He looked at Meng Yan who was a few steps away from him, stretched out his hand, and smiled, "Xiao Yan, we can go home now."

Meng Yan shook her head at him.

Hao Sang's expression suddenly changed. "Xiao Yan, didn't we agree on this? The old man is dead now, and we can go home. What are you still hesitating about?"

His expression suddenly turned ugly. "Could it be that you still can't bear to part with this old man? Are you blaming me?"

"Have you forgotten how he treated us? Did he treat us as his disciples? He even wanted to use us to practice his supreme magic. They... died, all died. Why did they die? Have you forgotten all this? Why don't you want to go with me? Why is it that he is dead now, and you still won't go with me!"

Meng Yan still shook his head, looking at the thick-armored rhinoceros that were gradually gathering around them, "I'm afraid we...can't leave."

Hao Sang suddenly laughed, "What are you afraid of? I have a backup plan." A cruel smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "They all have to die. They all have to go down to be buried with this old man. Hahahaha."

Wu Qingshuang hated Hao Sang so much. When he heard him laugh, the anger in his heart grew stronger. He wished he could chop off his hands and grind his bones to ashes.

She did not hesitate and played a gradually passionate piece of music. The thick-armored rhinoceros seemed to have received an order and was instantly revived as if it had been injected with chicken blood.

He ran wildly towards the two men in black, the ground cracked and the mountains shook.

Bai Xing's face suddenly changed, "Princess, Princess, I'm still here? Hey!" As he said that, he waved at Wu Qingshuang.

The group of thick-armored rhinos seemed to be controlled, or as if they knew that Bai Xing was not the target. They ran in front of Bai Xing, automatically split up, and ran past Bai Xing towards the two men in black.

Bai Xing breathed a sigh of relief, his hands behind his back dropped down, and the things in his hands disappeared in an instant.

Meng Yan was shocked. She ran to Hao Sang and grabbed his arm. "Go!"

Hao Sang did not move. He patted the back of the hand and said, "Don't worry."

Meng Yan knew she couldn't resist, so she let go of her hand and let it fall to the side.

Seeing the thick-armored rhinoceros getting closer and closer, he suddenly cut his palm, splashed it on the ground beside him, and then clasped his hands together.

His expression suddenly froze, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes. "Impossible, I clearly saw the formation set up by the old man with my own eyes. As long as the formation is revealed, none of them can escape."
