Chapter 290 A Change of Situation

You Sisi didn't leave with Qing Chen and the others earlier because she saw what was happening before her eyes.

Team Leader Wu was being repeatedly whipped!

Each time Team Leader Wu died and emitted a phoenix cry, reviving in the golden light in a peculiar manner, the [Coffin-Pulling Ghoul]'s iron chains would accurately blast his head, ending his life.

If Team Leader Wu's consciousness only returned at the moment his body was completely restored, then there was almost no time for him to react.

He was basically facing the crisis of being shot in the head as soon as he woke up.

This was probably one of the core reasons why Team Leader Wu had no power to resist at all; otherwise, even a salted fish would have been able to flop around a bit before dying.

In the cycle of headshots, the sound of the phoenix cry became weaker and weaker. The speed at which Team Leader Wu recovered from his injuries also slowed down, and the interval between revivals became longer and longer.

It was as if the power within him had a limit and was being rapidly consumed.

The moment that power completely disappeared... Team Leader Wu might face true death!

"I can't let him die like this!"

You Sisi, who had been trying to find a suitable opportunity to strike, saw that Team Leader Wu was clearly about to collapse. Her expression darkened, and she had no choice but to face him head-on.

Even though You Sisi knew that her strength was no match for the [Coffin-Pulling Ghoul], she had no reason to back down in the face of a ghoul!

*Zheng!*

The Thousand Silk Sword was drawn!

"Kill!"

You Sisi roared, her speed increasing explosively as she charged forward.

The [Coffin-Pulling Ghoul] had already noticed You Sisi. Its only upper body slowly raised its hand, and the iron chains around it twisted and danced nimbly like venomous snakes.

The moment it gently pointed its finger, the black shadow on the other side was approaching frantically at a terrifying speed.

*Swoosh!*

*Zheng!!!*

The two sounds rang out almost simultaneously.

You Sisi didn't even see what happened clearly.

She only saw the [Coffin-Pulling Ghoul] gently point its finger in the high sky, and at the same time, a black shadow with an almost blurred figure darted out from the side.

The next moment, what erupted in the high sky was the intense starlight produced by the violent friction of metal against metal.

On the ground, a dozen meters in front of You Sisi, the ground suddenly exploded as if struck by a fierce attack. The ground cracked open, and gravel and dust flew everywhere, as if... some kind of attack had deviated and landed on the ground.

"Ye Se!" (Night Color)

In a moment of daze, You Sisi immediately understood what had happened.

It was Fang Yue who had rushed over and used his attack to make the attacking iron chain deviate, allowing her to avoid the attack.

At that moment, You Sisi truly felt the terror of the [Coffin-Pulling Ghoul].

In that instant, she didn't even feel the approach of death. She was still immersed in the feeling of rescuing Team Leader Wu and charging forward desperately.

As a result, when the [Coffin-Pulling Ghoul] attacked, she didn't even have time to react. Even the feeling of death hadn't appeared, and the [Coffin-Pulling Ghoul]'s attack had already arrived!

If it weren't for Fang Yue's intervention, she would already be a corpse.

A wave of fear washed over her, and You Sisi trembled all over.

This... was no longer a battlefield for Houtian realm cultivators, or even for ordinary Xiantian realm cultivators!

This was a battlefield for Human-rank experts, a battlefield that top-tier Xiantian realm cultivators could barely touch!

"But, I remember Ye Se is only..."

You Sisi looked up into the high sky...

*Rumble!!*

In the [Thunder] and [Night Rain], a figure was holding Team Leader Wu in one hand, moving back and forth by stepping on the iron chains. The two-meter black blade in his hand was swung like a phantom, making *clang clang clang* sounds.

When a dozen iron chains converged and attacked the black figure together...

*Clang!!!*

With a loud bang, the black figure fell sharply!

With a bang, it landed beside You Sisi, accompanied by a violent shaking of the ground, stirring up a large cloud of dust.

Before You Sisi could rush over, the black figure had already rushed out of the dust, pulling her and violently retreating with two *clang clang* sounds!

"Ye Se?!"

"Take Team Leader Wu and leave! You won't be able to hold on for long in the [Night Rain]!"

After stabilizing his figure, Fang Yue stuffed Team Leader Wu into You Sisi's hands without turning his head.

But from Fang Yue's profile, You Sisi discovered that Fang Yue's eyes had turned pitch black, and black blood was flowing from the corners of his eyes. It was the form of the [Ghoul Eyes], very similar to when Lin Ling and Lord Han were first rescued.

They were all maintaining human consciousness, but had the characteristics of [Ghoul Eyes], ghoulification.

"You this is..."

Just as You Sisi was about to ask, she was suddenly pushed violently by Fang Yue.

At the same time that she and Team Leader Wu flew out, a fierce explosion of metal against metal sounded immediately in the place where Fang Yue was, incessant, and the battle was unusually fierce.

At this time, Team Leader Wu had also fully recovered. As the golden light converged, he quickly understood the situation before him.

"Captain Ye, I'll help you!"

"Don't come over! Take You Sisi and leave! I can handle it!"

"But..."

"Go!"

"...Okay! Captain Ye, hold on, I will bring the recovered Lord Han to help you!"

Different from You Sisi's hesitation, Team Leader Wu was unusually decisive and directly took You Sisi towards Qing Si.

While running, he took medicine. The erosion of the [Night Rain] had already caused the bloodline of the two to drop to the danger line.

Both of them were clear that their strength could not provide any help in this level of battle.

In the end... they were still too weak!

Team Leader Wu clenched his fists.

He was too arrogant. Since awakening the power of [Golden Light Phoenix Cry], he had been relying on this power. His own basic strength had stagnated for a long time.

And today's battle finally made him realize that external force is, after all, external force!

Even with the power of infinite resurrection, in the face of absolute power, it was only pale and powerless.

Not to mention... his power was not infinite resurrection!

As the [Golden Light Phoenix Cry] was consumed, he felt more and more clearly that the power in his body had lost more than half.

If he had continued to be killed by the [Coffin-Pulling Ghoul] at that time, if it weren't for Fang Yue and You Sisi's desperate rescue, he would have died without a doubt!

He must become stronger... he must become even stronger!

If he couldn't even kill this ghoul, how could he talk about saving An Dong'er, how could he talk about killing Taurus, how could he talk about destroying the Wu Rain Clan!

The golden light in Team Leader Wu's eyes became more and more intense, and the will in his heart was as firm as iron!

You Sisi, who was on the side, looked back every three steps, looking at the fierce battlefield behind, and couldn't help shouting loudly.

"Ye Se! You must survive! I will wait for you in Qing Si, always wait for you!"

Ordinary geniuses are not worth mentioning in front of real geniuses!

You Sisi had been crowned with the title of genius all the way here, perhaps because of her status as the daughter of the You family, or perhaps she was truly extraordinary in her age group.

But it wasn't until she met Fang Yue that she truly understood what a genius was, what was called... the pride of heaven!
