I Have Five Senior Brothers

Chapter 24: Appeared Again

Because Zhuo Tingqiu’s voice was too loud, Gu Qingqing and Jun Wu looked at him. Then, they looked at Mu Chen and the nine neonate nervously.

Huge waves rose on the surface of the lake from time to time. A sea of fire surrounded the man and the beast. Even the full moon in the sky was dyed red.

Seeing that Mu Chen was at a disadvantage again, everyone’s heart tightened.

Gu Qingqing raised her head and held her hands tightly in front of her chest. Her expression was unprecedentedly solemn. Just as she was staring at the nine neonate, she suddenly fell into a trance.

In an instant, she felt her consciousness withdraw. Then, a video-like existence suddenly appeared in front of her eyes.

There was someone standing in the sky. In front of him was a nine neonate that was even bigger and more powerful than the nine neonate that Gu Qingqing and the others were facing. Its nine heads were very huge, the places where the snake’s tail swung would even be temporarily dislocated. It looked extremely powerful.

The person standing in front of it looked tiny in comparison.

However, the aura on his body was on par with that of the nine-headed creature. In fact, it was even stronger than that of the nine-headed creature.

Just as the nine heads of the nine-headed creature opened their mouths wide and bit towards the person, a strange voice suddenly sounded. Immediately after, the originally ferocious nine-headed creature seemed to have been cut off by something. Its nine heads were chopped off at the same time, the body was also split open and blood rained down. The scene looked extremely tragic.

At that moment, the person suddenly turned his head. Gu Qingqing had yet to see the person’s appearance clearly and her consciousness went into a trance once again. When she woke up, she saw Jun Wu looking at her anxiously.

“Qingqing, are you alright? You suddenly fainted just now. Are you injured?” The usually expressionless Jun Wu’s face was filled with anxiety at that moment and his tone had never been so flustered before. He was clearly very worried about Gu Qingqing.

Gu Qingqing was stunned for a moment. She thought of something and did not immediately answer Jun Wu’s question. Instead, she raised her head to look at Mu Chen and the nine neonate.

Jun Wu also followed her and raised his head to look at the battle in the air.

“The nine neonate is more powerful than we thought. Mu Chen is having some trouble dealing with it.” Although Jun Wu was young, he had his own inheritance and had seen a lot by his father’s side. He had a certain level of judgment about the battle in the air.

Hearing this, Gu Qingqing frowned slightly. She thought for a moment and pulled on Jun Wu’s sleeve. When Jun Wu looked over, she motioned for him to bring her into the air.

“No, that’s too dangerous!”Jun Wu refused flatly and looked at Gu Qingqing sternly, “A battle of that level is already considered dangerous at our current distance. If we get close, I’m afraid that the aftershocks of the battle will kill us!”

Gu Qingqing was rather anxious. She suddenly broke free from Jun Wu’s hand and used the little bit of spirit power she had left to fly into the air.

Jun Wu carelessly let Gu Qingqing break free. When he saw Gu Qingqing fly into the air, he became even more anxious and immediately wanted to chase after her. But it was just as he had said. A battle of that level was not something that they could participate in at all. He had just flown into the air a little when he was affected and fell to the ground. If it was not for his good battle sense, he would have been injured by now.

But what surprised him more was that Gu Qingqing was actually safely in the air and was floating not far from Mu Chen and the nine neonate. She was not injured at all.

When he saw the transparent energy shield wrapped around Gu Qingqing, he finally felt relieved. But his brows were tightly furrowed; he did not understand why she would risk her life to fly into the air.

Gu Qingqing floated in the air. Her mind was still replaying the words of that powerful person from the scene just now. She looked at the nine neonate not far away and noticed the chain on the nine neonate’s body. She blinked her eyes and thought for a moment before suddenly speaking.

“Ten-sided evil-slaying formation, seal!”

A mysterious and strange voice came out of her mouth. A faint white light floated out and flew towards the chains on the nine neonate’s body.

When the light merged with the chains, the runes on the chains were suddenly activated. A strong red light emitted from the chains and enveloped the nine neonate.

The nine neonate was about to beat Mu Chen, swallow the humans, and have a good meal. However, it heard a familiar voice that made it afraid. It did not even have time to roar before it was enveloped by the red light. It struggled in the red light, it wanted to break free from the shackles of the chains.

However, it was futile. The more it struggled, the tighter the chains became. They even went deep into its flesh and blood. It was dragged by the chains and fell into the lake unwillingly. Finally, it disappeared.

After the nine neonate disappeared, the lake regained its calm. If it was not for the wounds on Mu Chen’s body and the splash of water on Zhuo Tingqiu’s and the others’ bodies, it would have been as if nothing had happened.

Seeing the nine neonate disappear, Gu Qingqing finally let out a sigh of relief. The pain that she had been suppressing suddenly hit her. She fainted and fell from the sky.

“Little Qingqing!” Mu Chen had just turned around when he saw Gu Qingqing’s body falling. He quickly exclaimed and moved towards Gu Qingqing.

Of course, there was another person who was faster than him. It was Jun Wu, who had been watching Gu Qingqing.

Jun Wu tiptoed and caught Gu Qingqing in mid-air. Then, he brought her down to the ground.

“Let me take a look.” Mu Chen rushed over and gestured for Jun Wu to put Gu Qingqing down.

Jun Wu knew how good Mu Chen’s medical skills were. He quickly put Gu Qingqing down and made way for Mu Chen to treat her. He also stopped Zhuo Tingqiu who was running over.

Mu Chen checked and found that her spiritual power was empty, and her meridians were also damaged. He frowned, but fortunately, these were not particularly serious injuries.

Just as he was about to turn around and tell Jun Wu not to worry, a familiar vortex suddenly appeared in the air and swallowed them all.

In the middle of the mountains near the inner circle, because of the self-explosion of the flame leopard, the air was filled with a strong smell of blood, but the other beasts did not dare to get close. After all, the pressure of the flame leopard’s self-explosion was still there.

The sky was already getting dark. After nightfall, the mountains would become very dangerous.

Just as the last trace of the sunset disappeared, a black vortex suddenly appeared in the air. Immediately after, a group of people were spat out from the vortex. It was Gu Qingqing and the others.

After Mu Chen realized that something was wrong, he had hugged Gu Qingqing tightly. After being spat out by the vortex, he immediately held Gu Qingqing and stabilized himself. When he realized that they had already returned to the mountains, he was relieved and brought Gu Qingqing to the ground.

“Qingqing, are you alright?” Jun Wu followed closely behind Mu Chen and landed on the ground as well. He looked nervously at Gu Qingqing whose face was deathly pale.

“Her spiritual energy has been exhausted and her meridians are slightly damaged. It’s not too serious.” Mu Chen did not hide anything and said directly.

When he heard this, although Jun Wu was still frowning, his expression eased up a lot.

Just as the two of them were about to speak, a piercing sound suddenly rang out.
