Chapter 348: Chapter 348 Lan Xin (Four Updates)
Yang Xiao had never slapped the butt of the Flame Horse with such force before, this was a first!
The Flame Horse was extremely intelligent; had it not been for Yang Xiao, it would have run away long ago and wouldn’t have risked dashing over.
With a neigh, the Flame Horse’s hooves soared into the air as fiery red flames expanded to their limit, racing like an arrow shot from a bow towards the direction of the Genetic Store.
In mid-air, a massive palm was swiftly descending, darkening the entire sky.
Yang Xiao could even feel the enormous pressure making it hard for him to breathe.
He held Zhi Ruo on the horseback, and at this moment, Zhi Ruo was unconscious, her body limp; Yang Xiao had to firmly embrace her waist to keep her steady.
Yang Xiao’s back felt cold; he had already sensed extreme danger.
Within the orange glow, everyone was even more nervous than Yang Xiao, their heartbeats accelerating.
"Mr. Yang, come on, run!"
Monk Ben Yin shouted.
Everyone had already retreated dozens of meters.
"Brother Yang, come on, hold on!"
Zhang Hai shouted.
Zhang Jian was also waving his fists, shouting loudly:
"Brother Yang, come on, come on!"
Even Lan Xin was excitedly shouting:
"Mr. Yang, hurry, hold on!"
"Come on, run!"
...
Everyone was shouting loudly.
Especially the junior sisters from the Emei Sect, who were crying and calling out.
Right now, Yang Xiao was in no mood to pay attention to everyone’s calls; hugging Zhi Ruo’s waist was not enough because her upper body would fall over. In a moment of urgency, his left hand directly grabbed her chest, embracing her to prevent her from falling.
Should she fall, all would be for naught.
All these events happened faster than a flash of lightning.
Yang Xiao rode the Flame Horse, speeding towards the Genetic Store like the wind and lighting.
He looked up and saw Monk Ben Yin and the others in the distance no longer shouting; each of them opened their mouths wide, staring at the sky above in horror.
Yang Xiao had a bad premonition; the pressure above his head had grown exceptionally strong, and his back was already feeling a stabbing pain.
The expressions of people like Monk Ben Yin were not without reason, for in the sky, the Sand Demon’s massive palm had already pressed down, and based on Yang Xiao’s current speed, it was nearly impossible to outrun the Sand Demon’s giant palm.
Everyone was in a state of panic, even oblivious to shouting.
Time seemed to have stopped.
Everyone knew that the tragedy was inevitable, that both Yang Xiao and Zhi Ruo would be crushed by the Sand Demon.
Lan Xin closed her eyes, unwilling to witness the tragedy unfold before her.
Several junior sisters from the Emei Sect immediately collapsed on the ground.
Yang Xiao gritted his teeth, laid Zhi Ruo horizontally on the Flame Horse, then lept off, allowing the horse to continue carrying Zhi Ruo at full speed.
"Let fate decide it all!"
As Yang Xiao flew down, his Divine Sense surged.
He saw the massive palm of the Sand Demon coming down, only about ten meters above his head, and the Sand Demon’s palm was so large that the fingertips were almost touching the edge of the orange glow; Yang Xiao was at least twenty meters away from the orange glow.
In the eyes of people like Monk Ben Yin, everything seemed inescapable.
Boom!
A loud noise as a hundred-meter-long tail of a Giant Beast swiped out from the void, sweeping towards the massive palm of the Sand Demon.
"Ah!"
Monk Ben Yin and the others were dumbstruck, involuntarily gasping in awe.
Boom!
The Giant Beast’s tail struck the Sand Demon’s palm, making an earth-shattering noise.
Even more shockingly, Monk Ben Yin and the others saw one of the Sand Demon’s massive fingers get swept away and severed by the Monster’s gigantic tail, scattering yellow sand all over the sky.
And this gigantic finger was precisely the one pressing down on Yang Xiao.
"Roar—"
The Sand Demon let out a pitiful and terrifying screech, but its enormous palm still solidly smashed down, only that the massive index finger pressing towards Yang Xiao had already broken off, turning into a sky full of yellow sand.
The Monster’s huge tail also disintegrated upon the massive impact, vanishing into the air.
Boom!
Yang Xiao could only feel the ground shaking violently under him, as if a tremendous earthquake was occurring.
His body involuntarily bounced three meters high due to the intense vibration.
At this moment, the Flame Horse carrying Zhi Ruo from the Emei Sect had already reached the edge of the orange glow. Zhi Ruo, not supported by anyone, was eventually thrown off the galloping Flame Horse.
However, she was only about 3 meters away from the orange light.
Zhang Hai and others rushed over, swiftly pulling Zhi Ruo into the orange light.
At this time, Yang Xiao was still about twenty meters from the orange light.
Yang Xiao fell back to the ground from the air and ran madly towards the orange glow.
The index finger of the Sand Demon’s hand had been severed by Yang Xiao’s Sweeping Void, and after it struck the ground, a handprint over 2 meters deep was made.
In the midst of the airborne dust, two huge crimson eyes swept over the running Yang Xiao before once again raising its enormous palm.
Then, everyone saw the yellow sand on the ground rapidly gathering at the broken finger, accumulating and growing longer, and in the blink of an eye, a newly regenerated large index finger was restored.
Everyone was horrified, not understanding what kind of Monster the Sand Demon was, able to regenerate its severed finger.
The Sand Demon raised its huge palm and struck at Yang Xiao once again.
People screamed:
"Yang Xiao, run fast!"
"Yang Xiao, run fast!"
Because Yang Xiao had saved Zhi Ruo earlier, this time, everyone excitedly shouted Yang Xiao’s name as if he had suddenly become one of their own kin.
Even the proud women from the Shenming Mountain Sect were filled with passion, shouting loudly.
Yang Xiao sprinted.
In mid-air, the Sand Demon’s giant hand struck down again.
Yang Xiao was about three meters from the edge of the orange light; he leaped forward and lunged over.
Then, amidst their excited shouting, Lan Xin’s view suddenly darkened as Yang Xiao tackled her down.
Boom!
The instant Yang Xiao tackled Lan Xin, the Sand Demon’s enormous palm struck down behind them, but the Sand Demon’s intense Killing Aura was blocked by the orange light.
Monk Ben Yin and the others, standing within the light, watched tremendous yellow sand rush forward only to stop abruptly at the edge of the orange glow, scattering and falling.
The Sand Demon’s two huge crimson eyes glared hatefully at Yang Xiao for a moment before it turned around with a thunderous rumble and disappeared into the sandstorm.
Only then did everyone breathe a long sigh of relief.
Yang Xiao felt himself pressing down on a soft body, enveloped by a captivating fragrance.
"Ouch, get off me quickly."
Hearing the voice, Yang Xiao lifted his head, meeting Lan Xin’s beautiful eyes.
So Yang Xiao lay on top of Lan Xin, looking at her.
Their eyes met, causing a tremble in their hearts.
Lan Xin shut her eyes tightly, her face flushed red.
