Chapter 1147
Even more creatures were joining the fray; a dozen insects, each a meter long, began to rise from the lake .
The super creatures were bee-lining for Han Sen, that much was clear .
They wanted nothing more than to dine on Xiang Yin's flesh, but they had previously been unable to disrupt her ascension . Now that Yaksha had appeared, proving formidable enough to do so and give the creatures what they desired, they had hope . But Han Sen had come along to stop Yaksha, and with only him in their way, they all thought it best to chip in and stop the meddler .
Han Sen had done what he could in the time he had, but under fire from so many super creatures, he knew it would now be best to run .
While he wished to save Xiang Yin and ensure her success, Disloyal Knight and the Blue Dinosaur were not enough to repel the assault of a dozen super creatures .
Even if Han Sen did stay and fight, Yaksha would be free to fly towards that door while the super creatures kept his foe occupied . Remaining there would be a pointless endeavor, and stopping Yaksha any further would be silly .
"Run!" Han Sen yelled back towards Queen and the Blue Dinosaur .
Blue Dinosaur was no sharper than a bag of socks, but even it wasn't dumb enough to try to withstand a dozen super creatures . It knew it was time to run, and so it did .
Queen was atop it, and she rode it back into the tunnels they had come from .
Han Sen tried to veil the seven senses of the creatures, so they could neither hear nor see him .
But its effectiveness on super creatures was practically null, and it did not quell their raging stampede towards him . All Han Sen could do was focus on his flight out .
"You had it coming!" Yaksha coldly mocked, before turning to go for the door .
The nine steps Xiang Yin had traversed were brutal and endowed with a hungry fire that ravaged all who sought to ascend . She was little more than a shadow at this point, and that shadow was flickering faintly, as if it was about to be completely dispelled by a dazzling light .
Xiang Yin had been aware of what was occurring outside of the door, and she had been touched by Han Sen's bravery in trying to secure safe passage for her .
When he fled from the attacks of the super creatures, she completely understood .
Nearing the end of her painful journey, Xiang Yin decided to forget about Yaksha who was now homing in on her . She now had to focus on completing what she had started .
She concentrated on withstanding the fire that sought to incinerate her . She could not allow her mind to waver, falter, or be distracted by the incoming threat . If her mind wandered for a second, it'd be her demise .
"Maybe this is my fate . " Xiang Yin was still composed, and she didn't feel hatred for the one who came for her .
Han Sen had already fought on her behalf for a while, but she hadn't yet been able to make that final step . Even if Yaksha wasn't there to disturb her, she was teetering on the brink of failure .
