Ms. Doctor Divine

2067  Danger 2

As the scream echoed through the mountains, Zhuo Yuanbai's face turned pale, and he instinctively took a few steps back, urging Gu Chaoyan to stand in front of him as if seeking protection.

The terrified cries belonged to the disciples who had come for the examination. Recalling the miserable sounds he had heard earlier, Zhuo Yuanbai couldn't shake the feeling that something genuinely dangerous was happening.

Realizing the severity of the situation, Gu Chaoyan urgently suggested, "Just pinch the information elixir! We need to know what's going on."

However, Zhuo Yuanbai snapped back, "We can't do that! Pinching the Information Pill means giving up the examination. If we forfeit the Beastmaster Sect's examination, we won't smoothly enter the outer sect of the Supreme Sect."

"…."

"Why didn't you pinch it?" Zhuo Yuanbai asked sharply.

Hearing Zhuo Yuanbai's reminder, Chang Yuanqing broke out in a cold sweat. She was going to do that, definitely.

Yan Wuji trusted Gu Chaoyan, so he did not hesitate.

Gu Chaoyan had not expected that this man was still thinking about the examination.

Well…

He wasn't doing anything wrong, either.

Gu Chaoyan spoke not because she wanted to immediately inform the Elder of the Supreme Sect about the situation, but rather, she wanted to signal that something was amiss. She decided to hold off on directly reporting the incident and planned to wait until they reached the location of the accident.

But someone was thinking her suggestion in a twisted way.

Anyway…

Seeing that Yan Wuji was done, Gu Chaoyan felt assured.

As they continued walking towards the scene of the accident, Yan Zhengchu hesitated to use the information elixir since Yan Wuji had already acted on it. He decided to hold onto it for a more opportune moment.

The eerie sounds grew louder, indicating their proximity to the source of the disturbance. Gu Chaoyan hastened her pace, anxious to reach the location.

When they finally arrived, Gu Chaoyan was taken aback by the shocking sight before her. Not far from the gate was a treacherous swamp, in which a massive demon crocodile had captured some of the disciples who had been partaking in the examination. The horrifying sight showed that the demon crocodile still held the lower halves of their bodies in its menacing jaws. The clothes they wore confirmed their identities, making it clear that these unfortunate individuals were indeed the fellow participants.

Although others had also arrived at the scene, they hesitated to approach too closely, struck with fear and caution.

Gu Chaoyan crushed the information pill in her hands.

This demon crocodile was already a high-level demonic beast.

It was at least a top-level Martial Saint, and Gu Chaoyan was just a first-level Martial Saint. It was impossible for her to kill this demon crocodile, alone.

There was a huge difference between the first level of the Martial Saint Realm and the top level of the Martial Saint Realm!

And after eating a few people, it seemed that this beast was going to make a huge breakthrough.

At this moment…

Zhuo Yuanbai and the others were here too.

He saw the demon crocodile and got so frightened. "Run, this is already a mid-level and top-level demonic beast. We can't do anything about it."

Hearing that, Chang Yuanqing ran away.

As for the others, some of them ran, but they were not as fast as the demon crocodile.

Gu Chaoyan saw a few people caught up by demon crocodile, so she rushed forward with the white jade sword.

She stabbed the demon crocodile with the sword.

Sensing the pain, demon crocodile stopped and came to Gu Chaoyan.

Gu Chaoyan dodged.

Those who were rescued ran away, fearing that they would be caught again.

However….

Those who ran away soon noticed one thing.

They could not run out, because they were blocked by a barrier. So they could only move about in this area.

And this barrier…
