Quick Wear: The host is a jerk again and runs away

Chapter 539 (Additional Words) Anomalies Appear

They rode Bai Ye's Nine Sky Divine Phoenix and landed in the southern corner of the secret realm.

There is still an endless ice field here, but there is a large ice cave, which is better than the open air and can be regarded as a temporary habitat.

Bai Ye and Xie Lanyue carried Shi Yuan down, Jili held Xueyi, and after they arrived at the ice cave, they rested for a while and then began the transformation.

Inside the ice cave, Bai Ye waved his sleeves lightly, and a soft light overflowed from his palm, illuminating the dim space.

He closed his eyes and concentrated, tapping the air with his fingertips. As he moved, the ice wall gradually began to emit a warm blue light. Then, pieces of ice crystals slowly melted, turning into streams that flowed into the ground, revealing flat rocks.

Xie Lanyue was busy on the side, taking out various tools and materials from the storage ring.

He skillfully built a simple wooden frame, and each piece of wood was carefully selected and polished to ensure that it was both sturdy and warm.

Next, he took out rolls of soft animal skins, covered the wooden frame with them, and then used thin ropes to weave them together to secure them. Soon, a large, warm and comfortable bed was formed.

Jiang Shouyu took out thirty fire spirit beads from the space and placed them evenly around the area where they were.

A warm current soon spread through the cave, and several people breathed a sigh of relief.

Xue Yi and Shi Yuan were carried to the bed, and the others also sat on it, took out the fasting pills and started taking them.

It will take more than twenty days for them to go out, but here, apart from the traps and ice and snow, there is really nothing to do.

Jili fed Xueyi and the other two pills and cast spells to ensure their souls were stable.

After spending a few peaceful days, Xue Yi and Shi Yuan still did not wake up.

Bai Ye’s answer was that they would probably sleep for a while and it was nothing serious, so everyone had no choice but to give up and silently take care of the two of them.

But... the ice field doesn't seem as safe as they imagined.

I don't know when the snow started to intensify, as if the sky had cracked open, and endless snowflakes were like dancing white ghosts, wantonly invading the entire secret realm.

The originally tranquil ice field was covered with thick snow, and the biting cold could be felt even with every breath.

Inside the ice cave, despite the warm light emitted by the fire spirit bead, the irresistible coldness from the outside world seemed to be quietly seeping in, causing goose bumps to appear on people's skin involuntarily.

At this moment, a low and long roar of an animal pierced through the wind and snow, echoing on the ice field.

The voice was mixed with anger and anxiety, as if some huge creature was enraged by the sudden cold.

Immediately afterwards, more beast roars rose one after another, interweaving into a chaotic symphony, foreshadowing that an unknown crisis was brewing deep in this secret realm.

Inside the ice cave, the originally peaceful atmosphere was torn apart by the roars of beasts from outside, and a solemn look appeared on everyone's face.

Bai Ye frowned, his eyes penetrating the ice wall, trying to gain insight into the changes in the outside world.

"This beast's roar... seems to be more violent than usual. I'm afraid something unusual is happening."

Xie Lanyue put down the medicine bottle in her hand, stood up, walked to the edge of the cave, stared at the world outside blurred by the wind and snow, and said in a firm voice:

"We must be prepared to deal with this kind of weather, coupled with the unknown movement of the beasts, I'm afraid the next few days will not be peaceful."

Jiang Shouyu also stood up, with a look of determination in his eyes: "No matter what happens, we have to protect Xiaoyi and the other two. They are the weakest now."

Ji Li held Xue Yi's hand tightly and whispered softly: "You must wake up soon, I will always be with you."

Bai Ye turned around, glanced at everyone, and said in a deep voice:

"We need to increase our vigilance and take turns to keep watch. Jiang Shouyu, work with me to set up some defensive formations just in case." His voice was soft, but it carried unquestionable power.

Jiang Shouyu nodded and took out a number of jade slips engraved with complex runes from his waist. These were the defensive magic weapons he collected in his daily life and they needed to be used at this moment.

"Okay, I'll arrange the perimeter, and you'll be in charge of the interior of the cave."

Wei Fuzhi also joined the defense team. His power belongs to the underworld. When encountering monsters that divine power cannot defeat, perhaps the underworld power can be of some use.

But things don't seem as simple as they imagined.

The wind and snow were like knives, cutting every inch of space. Inside the ice cave, the light of the fire spirit bead formed a sharp contrast with the darkness outside.

Suddenly, a rapid and panicked cry for help, mixed with the deafening roar of monsters, penetrated the barrier of the blizzard and could be clearly heard.

Everyone quickly gathered at the cave entrance and through the thin defensive barrier, they saw on the ice field, dozens of huge monsters covered with crystal clear ice armor were madly chasing a group of ragged and miserable monks.

The faces of those monks were filled with despair and fear, and their steps were staggering. It was obvious that they were at the end of their strength.

In the wind and snow, the monsters' eyes flashed with bloodthirsty red light. They opened their huge mouths, and their sharp fangs flashed in the cold light.

Every charge caused a splash of ice chips, as if it was going to devour all living things.

Among that team of monks, some were caught up by the monsters from time to time due to exhaustion, and were instantly crushed into ice chips by their huge bodies. The screams stopped abruptly, leaving only pieces of shocking blood-red ice flowers.

The wind and snow became more violent, as if there was only endless white and roaring left in the world.

Inside the ice cave, the faint light of the fire flickered, illuminating everyone’s nervous faces.

Through the thin ice-blue light curtain of the defensive barrier, the scene outside was like the end of the world:

Dozens of ice-type monsters, their huge bodies looming in the wind and snow.

Every step was accompanied by a loud shaking of the ground. The ice armor reflected cold light, like a moving iceberg, quickly crushing the invaders.

The monks who were being chased were now in a very miserable state, with torn clothes and faces covered in blood and fear.

They were the third group of people that everyone saw in the stone gate earlier. The other two groups were left there because they had attacked them, and only this group secretly moved and escaped.

Unexpectedly, we met again after a few days.

To help or not to help is a big question now.

First, these people did not attack them, so it seems reasonable to help them.

But then again, they now have two unconscious wounded people to take care of, and the deadline for the secret realm gate to open is still more than ten days.

If they take action now, and are discovered by the monsters and cannot defeat them, how will they survive the next ten days?

It is a huge burden for them to have to dodge and fight all the time.

Without two fighting forces, we have to face the dangers hidden in the secret realm.

This is really not a wise move.

As a Buddhist, Ji Li still had some mercy in his heart. He spoke softly, hesitantly, "Should we... take action?"

The others didn't say anything. It was obvious that watching those monks being torn to pieces by the monsters was a bit cruel.

However, Wei Fuzhi answered quickly, almost decisively, "I suggest you don't move."

"Do you know why Ji Xueyi has become what she is now? It's because she didn't care about the things she should have cared about, and interfered with the fate of others."

He stood with his hands behind his back, watching the group of monks being torn to pieces by the monsters with cold eyes, his voice was very cold:

"You didn't force them to take risks in the secret realm. Now that they are here, their life and death are determined by fate. This is their destiny."

"Besides, Ji Xueyi and Shi Yuan are both unconscious now. If you help them, what if you let a wolf in and expose the location of the ice cave?"

Jiang Shouyu pursed his lips and expressed his agreement, "I also think we shouldn't help. We have finally found a temporarily safe place. Exposing ourselves now is tantamount to seeking death."

Jili's gaze fell on Bai Ye and Xie Lanyue, meaning to ask for their opinions.

Xie Lanyue looked at the two people lying there, then looked at the bloody scene outside, with a look of struggle on her face.

If it were in the past, he would have rescued her without hesitation.

But now is not the time for them to be in the spotlight.

In a place like this where people are eaten without leaving any bones, it is very difficult to protect yourself.

He really can't be a saint.

Bai Ye sighed. As the lord of the divine world, his burden was heavier than that of others.

Looking at the scene in front of him, he knew very well that not taking any action was the best solution, but he still couldn't help wanting to go out and help.

"Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. Jili, do you think this is true?"

When their eyes met, a light flashed in Jili's eyes.

"nature."

Bai Ye nodded and walked out of the barrier area first. "In this case, the two of us will go and help once, and it will be considered a good deed."

"You have to take good care of them both. Don't look for them if we don't come back."

"Remember, you must bring Xueyi out alive."

Bai Ye and Ji Li stretched out their bodies, like two lightning bolts cutting through the wind and snow, and instantly rushed out of the ice cave and headed straight for the chaotic battlefield.

The wind and snow seemed to have slowed down around them. Their sleeves fluttered in the strong wind, but their eyes were determined.

Bai Ye held the giant axe of divine light in his hand, tapped the ground with the tip of the axe, and leaped directly into the group of monsters with the force of the axe. The axe light weaved like a weave, accurately cutting off the attacks of several monsters and opening up a way of survival for those desperate monks.

They fled with blood all over their bodies, completely ignoring the two people who came to help them.

When the other people in the ice cave saw this scene, they all shook their heads and looked disappointed.

Human nature is like this, selfish and greedy.

Even they put their own interests first.

However, Bai Ye and Ji Li who rushed out might not be so lucky.

Their kindness became the last straw that the group of monks could grasp.

Once they are caught, they will be dragged down fiercely to save their own lives.

On the ice,

Jili clasped his hands together, Buddha's light surrounded him. He chanted a Buddhist name, and then his body turned into a phantom, shuttling among the monsters.

He pushed lightly with his palm, and waves of warm and powerful force surged out, repelling several monsters that tried to break through the defense line, while also healing the injured monks.

However, the two of them were obviously unable to cope with the magical beasts that had lived in this secret realm for who knows how many years.

Gradually, wounds of varying sizes appeared on both of their bodies.

After the monks they were protecting fled with all their might, someone saw Wei Fuzhi and the others who were watching from the sidelines.

A group of people actually ran towards the ice cave!

Behind them was a magical beast that was not controlled by Bai Ye and Ji Li, and it was roaring hard behind them.

"They're coming!"

The atmosphere in the ice cave suddenly became tense, as if even the air had frozen.

Wei Fuzhi's eyes instantly became sharp, the long sword in his hand trembled slightly, and the tip of the sword lightly tapped the ground, making a crisp sound. He said in a deep voice:

"Be prepared to fight. If we had known this would happen, we shouldn't have let them go. They are really asking for trouble."

Jiang Shouyu stood up quickly, holding the Crescent Moon Bow in his hand, aiming at the monster, ready to attack.

"Protect yourself and the two unconscious people. The formation in front of the barrier is our last line of defense. We must not let them in!"

Xie Lanyue had a complicated expression on his face. He looked at Xue Yi behind him, then turned around.

Once again, I felt sorry for Bai Ye and the other man.

The two of them were already at a disadvantage in the battle against the eight-headed monster.

The only magical beast that was chasing the monks was led in their direction by the monks.

As the group of people got closer, the atmosphere in the ice cave had obviously dropped to freezing point, and everyone's faces turned grim.

"I come!"

Following Jiang Shouyu's low shout, his body tensed up like a cheetah ready to strike, the bowstring of the Thorn Moon Bow in his hand was fully drawn, and one could almost hear the sharp sound of the air being torn.

The monster was less than ten feet away from the ice cave. A huge shadow loomed over it, bringing a suffocating feeling of oppression.

At this critical moment, Jiang Shouyu's eyes flashed, his fingertips suddenly loosened, and the arrow turned into a silver stream of light, cutting through the wind and snow, accurately piercing the monster's sturdy forefoot.

With a deafening roar of anger, the monster's huge body suddenly stopped, its center of gravity unstable, and it staggered forward a few steps, leaving a series of deep claw marks on the snow.

Upon seeing this, a hint of ecstasy after despair flashed in the eyes of the monks, as if a drowning man had grabbed the last straw, and they ran towards the ice cave desperately.

However, their actions only exposed their position faster and instantly attracted the attention of the injured monster.

The monster's eyes were red and burning with rage. It let out a deafening roar that echoed across the ice field, shaking people's minds.

The group of monsters that were originally besieging Jili and Bai Ye seemed to have received some kind of signal. They gave up the prey in front of them, turned around, and gathered towards the injured monster like a black tide. The scene was spectacular and terrifying.

Bai Ye's pupils suddenly shrank, his gaze was as sharp as a torch, piercing through the wind and snow and striking the surging tide of monsters.

He suddenly turned around and looked at Ji Li who was struggling with the monster, his voice filled with unprecedented anxiety:

"Jili, retreat quickly! Their target is the ice cave!"

Upon hearing this, Jili paused, and then the Buddha's light became even brighter. He formed seals with his hands, trying to use the power of Buddhism to temporarily suppress the several monsters around him and buy time for retreat.
