Chapter 210 - How Is He Not Dead
Chapter 210: How Is He Not Dead
As the buzzing sound behind them grew further and further away, they finally got rid of the shadow of death. Seeing that the swarm of insects had not caught up, the people of Moyu Tower could not help but heave a sigh of relief. They were truly fortunate.
Logically speaking, with the speed of the Winged Golden Black Bugs, the bugs should be able to catch up to them easily. However, there might be an exception. At this moment, Fang Qinyu was still unconscious. By the time she woke up, everyone had already arrived at a safe place.
Fang Qinyu suddenly stood up. The first thing she did was to look for Gu Xi. However, when she looked around, she did not see Gu Xi. Her eyes immediately turned red.
“You guys are too much! You actually left him alone there!”
Zhou Haozhe took a step forward and wanted to explain, “Junior Sister, we’re doing this for your own good. If we bring him along, we won’t be able to escape.”
Fang Qinyu’s watery eyes were about to cry, and her tears kept rolling. I felt pity for her, but she still stubbornly refused to let go, “If you want to run, then run. I’ll bring him along! I definitely won’t drag you down!”
Eldest Senior Brother said disapprovingly, “Junior Sister, what are you saying?! You’re simply playing with your own life. If the Sect Master knew about this, he would definitely be angry.”
However, Fang Qinyu glared fiercely at Zhou Haozhe. “Senior Brother Zhou, I didn’t expect you to be such a villain. From the beginning, you didn’t like him, and then you knocked me out! When I go back and report to Father, you better give him a good explanation!”
When everyone heard these words, they were instantly stunned. One had to know that Fang Qinyu’s personality was gentle, and she had never said such harsh words. Moreover, they were all fellow disciples, and they had grown up together.
Zhou Haozhe’s face turned green. “Junior Sister, I’m doing this for your own good. What kind of bewitching potion did that Kid give you? How could you treat me like this!”
Fang Qinyu also felt that this sentence was a little too serious. However, when she thought of Gu Xi’s current situation, she felt both frustrated and angry.
“Senior Brother, I told you earlier that there was danger. It was you who didn’t listen to my advice. Instead, you felt that he was being overly cautious and treated it as nonsense. He reminded you, but how did you treat him in the end? You left him there to die?”
Fang Qinyu’s delicate little face was full of coldness as she questioned everyone present. Her heart was filled with unprecedented disappointment.
Originally, there was still a chance of survival for Gu Xi, but if they left him on the spot, Gu Xi could only wait for death. After all, he did not have any spiritual power, so how could he withstand the Winged Golden Black Bugs? Furthermore, it was said that it was a swarm of bugs.
Hearing her question, everyone was speechless. Someone said embarrassedly, “Maybe, maybe he just guessed it correctly.”
After all, Gu Xi had lost all his cultivation and was no different from an ordinary person. Even Eldest Senior Brother did not notice anything strange. How did this guy know that there was danger?
“That’s right. Junior Sister Fang, you can’t say that either. He was frightened by the Demon Bear earlier. Maybe it was just a casual remark. Who would have thought that he would really encounter the Insect Tide?”
Li Qing, who was the closest to Fang Qinyu, went up and comforted her, “Junior sister Fang, don’t be sad. Life and death are fated. We have no choice.”
Fang Qinyu pushed her hand away, “No, we originally had a way to deal with the bugs! I want to go back and look for him. If it wasn’t for him, I might have already died under the claws of the Demon Bear!”
Everyone looked at each other. No one could understand why Fang Qinyu would say such a thing.
“Junior Sister, it’s too late for you to go back now. The Winged Golden Black Bugs are very powerful, not to mention the Insect Tide. Even if you go back now, you might only see a skeleton. Moreover, you might even encounter danger.”
At this moment, the Eldest Senior Brother who had been silent all this time finally said, “Let her go! Junior Sister, you’re too willful. If Master knew that you would fight with us to such an extent because of an outsider, he definitely wouldn’t let you go down the mountain.”
Fang Qinyu bit her lips. “Senior Brother, you don’t understand. He really saved my life.”
For a moment, she did notknow how to explain. Fang Qinyu did not want to say anymore, so she turned around and left to look for Gu Xi.
Everyone looked at her back and could not help but say, “Senior Brother, if you really let Junior Sister Fang go back, what if there are still Winged Golden Black Bugs there! If junior sister is injured, how are we going to explain it to Master?”
Eldest Senior Brother sighed, “Let’s follow her and take a look.”
The people of Moyu Tower returned according to the original route, but they found that the surroundings were frighteningly quiet, as if there was no movement. This really did not make sense.
Eldest Senior Brother smelled something unusual and cautiously reminded, “There’s something strange here. Everyone, be careful.”
Hearing his words, everyone’s heart hung in their throats. “Could it be that the Winged Golden Black Bugs hasn’t gone far?”
If they happened to bump into them, then the situation would not be good for them.
Fang Qinyu held her breath and carefully moved forward, afraid to see a set of white bones in front of her. However, when they pushed aside the grass in front of them, everyone was stunned.
Gu Xi actually stood in the same spot unscathed. His faint gaze swept past the people of Moyu Tower, carrying some inexplicable mockery.
However, at this moment, his face was still pale. No matter how one looked at it, it was a little strange. Those who met Gu Xi’s gaze actually felt an inexplicable sense of guilt and pressure, and subconsciously lowered their heads.
An ordinary person who had lost all his cultivation actually gave them such a great sense of pressure!
“That’s great! You’re not dead yet!”
“Junior Sister Fang–”
Looking at Fang Qinyu who was running over, the people of Moyu Tower wanted to stop her, but it was already too late.
Everyone was extremely shocked. After all, very few people were able to survive Winged Golden Black Bugs, not to mention such a large wave of bugs. Even if their Master was here, he would not be able to withstand it.
It could be said that it was impossible for Gu Xi to survive.
However, something unbelievable happened just like that.
