"Get away!"
Qi Huan and Lu Wan swiftly ran from their position to avoid the center of the cave. There were still some other pillars on the deeper side of the cave, providing them the protection they needed.
Crash!
The rocks fell down to the ground at a rapid speed, completely filling everything with rocks. It stopped after a while as it seemed that only part of the ceiling collapsed. At the same time, it killed the majority of the bats there.
"That's the leader!" Lu Wan swung his chain and attacked the leader once more. The bat was struggling to get out of the rubbles, but the attack prevented it from moving.
Qi Huan took the chance and jumped to the bat's direction. Positioning its sword vertically, he pierced it straight to the bat's body. By making use of the gravity effect and also his own power, the sword pierced the bat's body.
Stab!
Scree!
The bat struggled and Lu Wan swung his chain blade once more, killing the bat. He looked around as he frowned.
"Where's Ye Jiao?"
Qi Huan looked around with a grim expression. "Jiao'er!"
There was no sign of the young girl everywhere, causing them to be anxious. When the rocks started to fall, she was right in the middle. Could it be, she didn't manage to escape?
"I'm here."
The faint voice eased their tension. The two of them immediately headed to the rubbles and found Ye Jiao sitting underneath the rock. Somehow, the pillar broke at the height slightly above her and was propped by the rest of its body that stood firm. That position provided enough space just for Ye Jiao to sit down there.
Ye Jiao didn't have any strength to move anymore. When the rubbles started to fall, she had just escaped from the leader's attack. Just when she thought she would get hit, she realized that the space where she was sitting was safe from the fall. There were some smaller rocks around her, seemingly destroyed by something.
"You're truly one lucky girl," Lu Wan relieved a sigh. He was worried that she might have been wounded. Thankfully, she was small enough to fit in this narrow space.
"I'm not that lucky."
"Hmm?" Qi Huan bent down. His brows furrowed as he looked at the area where Ye Jiao sat. It was not a normal crate formed when the rocks fell.
Ye Jiao raised her hand, showing pieces of broken bracelets. "The bracelet activated just now. It protected me from the falling rocks."
"What's that bracelet."
Taking a closer look, Lu Wan picked one of the pieces. He founded the design to be slightly familiar. "It's not your storage bracelet, right?"
"Storage bracelet can't protect you, Lu Wan." Qi Huan rolled his eyes.
"I'm just saying!"
"It's the protection bracelet that Xin Jie gave me. I didn't expect it to activate just now." The sudden fall of the rocks was dangerous. Ye Jiao was extremely glad that she wore the bracelet even if she was not totally sure how it activated just now.
"Xin Jie? Your Sworn Sister?"
"Yes."
Qi Huan nodded in understanding while Lu Wan looked at the bracelet with gratitude. It was lucky for Ye Jiao to be able to activate it just now. If not…
She might have already died here.
Not wanting to think about that, Lu Wan placed the piece back to Ye Jiao's hand who lowered the pieces of the broken bracelet into a pouch before keeping it in her storage ring. Even if she couldn't use it anymore, she would keep it as memento. It was truly a close call just now.
Bam!
"Whoa, careful there," Qi Huan remarked. He looked at Lu Wan tiredly as he slowly sat down on the ground. His body also felt so heavy, but his pride as the prince of Chi Kingdom didn't allow him to act in disgrace.
Lu Wan rolled his eyes. "I don't have any energy left."
Ye Jiao smiled. "It seems so."
"I can see that."
"If you have so much energy, how about if you help me out here a bit."
"No," Qi Huan replied almost immediately.
"Stingy."
"I can barely move as I am. I'm sure that Ye Jiao also felt the same."
Still sitting in her original position, Ye Jiao nodded her head. She didn't want to move from this position at all. The constant battle and also the unexpected turns of the battle left her completely exhausted. Fighting without Eon Energy was even harsher. Her muscles were completely sore.
"There's no enemy left, right?"
"As long as the beast horde didn't come into this cave, there shouldn't be anything left."
"How about the inner cave?"
At Ye Jiao's question, the other two remained silent. They didn't know whether there were still more beasts again or not. But they knew that even if there were still beast around, they didn't feel like fighting again.
It was too tiring.
Their body was already beaten up so badly right now.
"We'll check later," Ye Jiao finally concluded when the two didn't answer her at all.
Lu Wan turned to look at Ye Jiao with confusion. "Since when you become our leader?"
"Since just now you don't want to answer my question."
"Hey!"
"What? You can be the leader if you want, Lu Wan."
"If he's the leader, I'll quit the team." Qi Huan frowned. What kind of senior brother would he be if he let someone as reckless as Lu Wan to be the team leader? That would be a huge disgrace.
Lu Wan rolled his eyes. "Don't insult me."
"I'm stating a fact."
Ye Jiao sighed. "Stop arguing. It's not the time for banter."
The other two nodded. They also knew that this was not the right time to argue. Their body was completely battered from the fight they had. Arguing would only waste their stamina even more.
"We're also quite lucky to be able to harvest a lot of cores. Probably, we'll be able to win later," Lu Wan looked at the beasts around them with glee. With the large number of bats around them, most of them should have cores. At that time, they would be able to take the first place easily.
"I don't really care about that. Right now, I just want to sleep."
"Right…"
It was then, they sensed the earth shook. Their faces paled. After battles, now it's an earthquake?
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
"Get away!"
Qi Huan and Lu Wan swiftly ran from their position to avoid the center of the cave. There were still some other pillars on the deeper side of the cave, providing them the protection they needed.
