Chapter 23 Fatal Crisis
But after a moment, a shrill scream could be heard coming from the belly of the unicorn snake.

Li Kan's eyes were red with anger as he roared:

"Chimu, what are you doing?"

Even if I die, I shouldn't be killed by my companions.

It would be fine if it was anyone else, but this is his Taoist partner!

A Taoist partner who has slept together for decades!
Lin Chi was not in a hurry and continued to run wildly:
"If the unicorn snake is bored, then let's find some fun for it. This kind of monster is the best at playing with its prey."

Li Kan looked back hurriedly and saw that the unicorn snake had indeed slowed down, and it seemed to be enjoying torturing Chen Miao.

because,

The wails of his Taoist companion were still following the movements of the unicorn snake, following them like a shadow.

asshole!

Li Kan gritted his teeth, mobilized his spiritual energy without regard for the consequences, took a few steps forward, and was about to catch up with Lin Chi.

Lin Chi stopped instead of advancing, rubbing his nose, and said helplessly:
"Brother Li, I know you won't fight with me."

This brat is so stupid.

You're being tough. Aren't you waiting for him here just to prevent him from attacking you?

A gleam of satisfaction flashed in Li Kan's eyes.

To avenge his fellow Taoist?
Killing him would mean one less person who could delay the Linshe.

I really won't kill you, but I'll keep you as a scapegoat.

In the blink of an eye, he had passed Lin Chi by several steps.

"I knew it."

A golden rope emerged from Lin Chi's sleeves.

In a moment, Li Kan was tied up tightly.

He didn't even react and was still running desperately while being tied up by the ropes.

The rope swung flexibly, and the burly man was thrown behind him.

The unicorn snake was delighted to see its prey, so it repeated its trick, spitting out its tongue once again and swallowing him into its stomach.

Jiang He held the little girl's hand tightly and pulled her to flee in the opposite direction of Lin Chi.

Bai Minxin's hand was so painful from being held, and it was covered with Jiang He's sweat. The previously stable spiritual power was also accelerated without reservation, allowing the speed of the two to increase to another level.

This Chimu
I didn't expect it to be so cold and cruel.

The two of them were thinking in tacit understanding at this moment.

"That's about the same."

Lin Chi seemed to be thinking about something. He looked at a streak of light escaping from the horizon, ignoring the two people who were running for their lives, and muttered to himself.

What's almost done?
Does he have a backup plan?
No wonder the organizers who had been so calm before fled with him.

Just take advantage of their and the unicorn's habit of playing with their prey and delay the time.

When the back-up comes, all problems will be solved.

And the backup plan is most likely Liu Wan!

Although the timeline has some deviations, it still corresponds to the original story of the novel.

The scaly snake also sensed the powerful aura pressing on it, and raised its head, looking around vigilantly.

The arc of light slowly stopped in front of Jiang He, and a beautiful female cultivator revealed herself.

She put away her flying sword and said with a smile:
"Where are we going?"

After Liu Wan came, Lin Chi felt fearless.

He also knew Liu Wan's character and stepped forward to stop her:
“Sister Liu, since you are here, please let them go.”

In his opinion, if he didn't have the jade sound transmission ring given to him by Liu Wan, these people would have been doomed to die.

Someone has to sacrifice to satisfy the unicorn's fetish and delay time.

Now that the deadlock has been resolved, there is no need to cause more killing.

Liu Wan gently poked Lin Chi's forehead:

"You should root out the problem at its roots. Since you've already killed two, you might as well kill them all to avoid future troubles."

She arrived shortly after Lin Chi crushed the jade ring and witnessed everything.

He was very satisfied with this young man whom he valued.

Be decisive in killing and calm in dealing with things.

But it's still not cruel enough.

Lin Chi was also a little hesitant. Asking him to take action against his enemy would be a complete destruction of the enemy.

Killing passers-by at random was not in his interest either.

Liu Wan added unintentionally:
"Oh, okay. This man wanted to be my Taoist partner before. It's a pity that he died like this. Well, it seems that he later went to work as a security guard for the Zhao family."

"what?"

Lin Chi was shocked when he heard this. He glanced at Jiang He and realized that he was the Zhao family guard. He said angrily:

"Huh? How dare you, a security guard, blaspheme Sister Liu?"

Not to mention that he had been a dog for the Zhao family in the past, the fact that he had improper thoughts about Sister Liu had already touched his reverse scale!

Jiang He's face suddenly turned dark. He had hoped that the two people didn't know him.

As a result, the two of them flirted in front of a huge demon snake.

All his secrets were exposed.

But under Liu Wan's pressure, he couldn't move at all.

The little girl beside him was even more overwhelmed, and her bones were creaking.

He could only continue to input spiritual power to help her cope with the pressure and make his disciple feel less painful before her death.

What an incompetent master.

Jiang He thought to himself with self-mockery, watching Bai Minxin being entangled by the golden rope. He opened his mouth with difficulty:
"sorry"

The black hood blocked her expression, and we could only see her shaking her head slightly.
I don’t know what it means.

The unicorn snake began to get agitated, and the little guys didn't take it seriously at all.

It was afraid of that powerful human, but it also wanted to devour her.

He tentatively spat out a scale, which stabbed at Liu Wan with tremendous force.

This is exactly one of its innate magical powers.

The throat and stomach of the unicorn are protected by hard scales.

This makes it easy for it to swallow its prey safely into its stomach and refine it, but it can also spit out the scales as a powerful means of attack.

Liu Wan didn't care about this demon snake in the early stage of foundation building and just swept it away casually with her flying sword.

Just knock the scales away, compared to such a boring creature as the monster.

She still prefers to play with people's hearts:

"One of you can live. If you are willing to die for her, she can live."

She took the scale and played with it with interest.

Dark and hard.

Even when her flying sword slashed, there was no gap.

These two seem to have a good relationship?

I just don't know if there are any scales as indestructible as these.

Sister Liu is still so playful and as mischievous as a young girl.

In order to avoid spoiling Liu Wan's interest, Lin Chi added:

"Don't worry, I'll keep my word. I, Chi Mu, am a man of my words and will never go back on my word."

Liu Wan glared at Lin Chi angrily. She didn't want to let the two people go.

Just playing with them.

Bai Minxin beside him still kept her head down and said nothing, but the fingers that were held by Jiang He curled up unnaturally.

Revealing that her heart was not as calm as it appeared on the surface.

The two men were very close and natural, not taking their master-disciple relationship seriously at all.

Liu Wan’s words were probably false, but Lin Chi’s promise still had some value.

Just give up on her. Her life and death have nothing to do with me?
I am just a time traveler. I shouldn't be the one to repay what my previous life owed them.

Besides, she treated me like that, why should I sacrifice my life to save her?

Jiang He really wanted to speak up and tell them to send Bai Minxin to death.

But the delicate palm of the girl beside him made him feel uncomfortable.
