Severing ties with family to marry the young marshal, his whole family chases me to the crematorium.

Chapter 107 is 107

A gunshot rang out, shattering the tense and silent atmosphere.

The sudden gunshot was like a thunderclap, startling everyone who had just been desperately fleeing. They instinctively covered their heads and quickly crouched down, as if that would protect them from the impending danger.

The person who was hit jolted violently and then fell straight forward to the ground.

He convulsed in pain a few times, then fell silent. Blood gushed from his wound, staining the surrounding ground red.

Looking at the chaotic scene before him, he could understand everyone's eagerness to escape, but the thought that someone might threaten Shen Qingyao's safety made his eyes instantly sharpen, and he would not allow such a thing to happen.

Just then, another deafening roar rang out.

"Roar--!"

This roar was like a howl from hell, filled with boundless rage and murderous intent, sending chills down one's spine.

Accompanied by a roar, a strong, pungent stench swept over everyone, filling their nostrils once again and making them nauseous.

Shen Qingyao could even clearly feel that the foul-smelling wind seemed to be mixed with many tiny water droplets, which kept hitting her delicate face, bringing a slight coolness.

This terrifying roar completely shattered the last psychological defenses of the group. They no longer cared about the threat posed by the guns, and struggled to their feet, running forward like madmen.

At that moment, Ruan Hongshuang also grabbed Secretary Chen's hand tightly and ran forward with all her might.

Shen Qingyao and Si Jingnian dared not slack off in the slightest and followed closely in their footsteps.

Despite their best efforts to increase their speed, the pair of enormous, blood-red, lantern-like eyes behind them remained a constant shadow, locked onto them, and they couldn't shake them off no matter what they did.

Just then, without warning, a huge and thick tail plummeted from the sky like a mountain crushing an egg, blocking their path. This sudden turn of events caught everyone off guard.

Ruan Hongshuang and Secretary Chen, who were walking at the front, turned pale with fright and hurriedly stopped.

Shen Qingyao and Si Jingnian, who were following behind, almost crashed into it due to inertia.

The tail hovered briefly in the air before suddenly lunging straight at Shen Qingyao like an arrow released from a bow.

Its speed was beyond imagination; it was already upon us in the blink of an eye.

Faced with such a swift attack, Shen Qingyao had no time to make any defensive moves.

In the nick of time, Si Jingnian reacted swiftly, pulling Shen Qingyao behind him and shielding her with his own body.

At the same time, Si Jingnian quickly raised the gun in his hand and fired several shots at the tail.

After a few crisp gunshots, the bullets hit the tail accurately, sending up several dazzling sparks.

Surprisingly, the tail was as hard as a rock and completely undamaged!

The tail seemed to sense Si Jingnian and the others' inability to resist, and it swung its body triumphantly, as if mocking their overestimation of their abilities and their attempt to fight against it.

Seeing this, Shen Qingyao immediately shouted to Si Jingnian:

"Si Jingnian, give me the gun!"

Upon hearing Shen Qingyao's shout, Si Jingnian handed the gun in his hand to her without hesitation.

After Shen Qingyao took the gun, she didn't care about anything else and immediately raised her right hand and bit the tip of her index finger.

As the teeth clenched tightly, bright red blood gushed out from the wound instantly.

Immediately afterwards, she swiftly drew a mysterious talisman on the pistol with her bloodied finger.

After completing these actions, Shen Qingyao gripped her pistol tightly, looked up at the still arrogant tail, and said coldly:

"Come on, try again!"

Without hesitation, Si Jingnian took the gun and fired several more shots at the tail.

"Roar~!"

"Roar~!"

Several gunshots suddenly pierced the night sky, followed by a series of deafening roars.

The tail, which had been as firm and indestructible as a rock, suddenly retracted at an astonishing speed like lightning, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.

On the ground, several shocking drops of bright red blood were left.

Upon seeing this, everyone was overjoyed, especially Shen Qingyao, whose tense nerves finally relaxed a little.

Actually, she was just trying it out as a last resort.

Not long ago, she witnessed the enormous tail seemingly possessing its own consciousness and intelligence, not only teasing them wantonly but also mocking them.

Therefore, she secretly speculated that the owner of this tail might have already cultivated into a spirit.

It should be noted that if the opponent is merely enormous in size but has not cultivated into a spirit, then the blood talisman she casts will be completely useless to it.

However, judging from the current situation, since this monster has already achieved enlightenment and transformed into a demon, there may still be a glimmer of hope for things to turn around.

Shen Qingyao spoke with a solemn expression:

"Senior Sister, please take Secretary Chen and evacuate this place quickly. Si Jingnian, you should follow him too!"

However, when faced with her order, Si Jingnian and Ruan Hongshuang shook their heads in unison, expressing their firm refusal.

"Senior Sister, please believe me. As we all know, spirits hate noisy, crowded places. So please leave with Secretary Chen as soon as possible, and I will handle this. I want to try to communicate with this spirit."

Upon hearing this, Ruan Hongshuang showed obvious hesitation on her face. She bit her lip and weighed the pros and cons repeatedly in her mind.

Time passed slowly, seemingly for a very long time, until finally she nodded gently in agreement.

She knew very well that in this dangerous situation, perhaps only by following Shen Qingyao's suggestion could they seize that glimmer of hope and escape safely.

If they don't take a chance, they'll likely face an inescapable fate and die here.

Just then, Ruan Hongshuang and Secretary Chen turned and left, their figures gradually disappearing into the darkness. Shen Qingyao's gaze quickly shifted to Si Jingnian.

"Si Jingnian, don't worry, I'll definitely be fine. You should go now!"

Shen Qingyao tried to speak in a calm tone, but her eyes betrayed a hint of tension and worry.

However, Si Jingnian did not heed her advice. He stared intently at Shen Qingyao, his handsome face appearing particularly resolute, and his eyes revealing a determined intent.
