Chapter 645: Chase
Translator: Cynthiia Editor: X, TYZ
Wan Shenwei was hiding in a thicket and stared at the red figure hovering in the sky . He didn't even dare to blink until She Yu finally flew away and disappeared . After that, he spitted out the mud in his mouth and flopped down on the ground .
He let out his bated breath with a little gasp, and his eyes were firm .
The new wound beside his neck was stained with mud, and the flesh was exposed to the air . As his chest moved up and down, his rock-like face was as cold as usual . Only half of the keels of his azure wings were left, resembling a broken spear .
His azure wings had been destroyed by She Yu with only one strike .
Wan Shenwei hadn't expected that She Yu could take a shortcut by traversing the metal winds from the upper atmosphere . This made him realize that the strength of the demonic girl was far beyond his imagination . As a result, Wan Shenwei made a sudden decision—he suddenly fell sharply and rushed into the jungle .
From that moment, Wan Shenwei's rich experience began to play an important role . He got rid of She Yu by making use of the complicated terrain . Although She Yu would soon catch up afterward, Wan Shenwei had already spotted her weakness in this aspect and had escaped again and again in this manner . Later, he also realized that She Yu could only detect the general location of Ye Baiyi's aura, so he set some traps, which worked well .
The blood on his ragged armor and clothes was dry, his hair was messy with some stray stalks of withered grass, but his eyes were still bright .
He smoothed his clothes and armor unhurriedly as usual . He knew it wouldn't take long before She Yu found him again .
Wan Shewei had always been strict with others and himself in abiding by the conduct and discipline of the combat divisions, and he hated undisciplined people very much . However ragged his armor was, he would always take care of it .
He glanced at the unconscious Ye Baiyi and smiled bitterly . No matter how they rolled around in the mud and among the forests these days, Ye Baiyi's clothes were still clean and as white as snow .
"Brother, we have been escaping for such a long time and went through many hardships together . Unfortunately, I cannot keep your company any longer . Well, maybe you don't need me at all . Haha," Wan Shenwei murmured to himself, and he couldn't help laughing out loud .
Then, he shut up and looked up at the sky in a trance .
She Yu had become more and more difficult to deal with . She was making progress every day . Plus, Wan Shenwei was not so naive that he believed that he could totally get rid of her only with these simple methods . After all, her qualification to be granted God's blood had already demonstrated her excellence .
Wan Shenwei knew a lot about the Blood of God . They regarded talent as key . They were far more cruel than elementalists in qualification trials .
A black spot appeared in the sky .
Wan Shenwei came back to his senses . He knew his trap would no longer work .
However, he didn't want to surrender without putting up a fight .
He took a long breath and grabbed Ye Baiyi in his hands . With a burst energy, he rushed out like a leopard .
Hearing the shrill howls behind his back, Wan Shenwei turned his hand that held Ye Baiyi .
Ye Baiyi was like a shield that Wan Shenwei used to cover his back .
The red rays from the sky hit the unconscious Ye Baiyi .
There seemed to be an invisible defense around Ye Baiyi, and the red rays were annihilated when they touched him .
Roar!
Growls were heard from inside Ye Baiyi like the roar of some kind of beast, which was extremely thrilling .
Wan Shenwei felt the person on his back suddenly become heavy and push him hard, making him lose his balance while running . Fortunately, he was already preparedfor this . He twisted his body and tapped the ground with the tips of his toes to adjust his direction and continue to rush forward .
Seeing that Ye Baiyi was still unscathed, She Yu sighed with relief, but she also felt extremely enraged . Wan Shenwei had made Ye Baiyi his best shield . This had happened several times, and She Yu had to slow down her attacks out of fear of hurting General Ye .
She Yu's eyes focused on Wan Shenwei, who kept moving in a zigzag route, and her expression was complicated .
Previously, the three central divisions were just a joke in her eyes, but now she began to appreciate and respect this leader of the Dread Division . During their confrontations these days, Wan Shenwei was in a disadvantageous situation, but he managed to escape using any method at hand until today . Of course, part of the reason was his rich experience, but the essential thing that supported him all this time was the strong will within his heavily-injured body .
No matter how much she admired him, however, She Yu would not show any mercy .
The Holy Emperor had granted the God's blood to her for this task . How could she face him if she failed to complete it? Since she had been hunting down the Judgement and Dread divisions for days, but never saw Nangong Wulian, she was pretty sure the Beast Venom Temple would have to change its leader now .
She could not save Nangong Wulian . As a result, Ye Baiyi would be her only life-saving straw .
No matter what happened, she had to get Ye Baiyi back safe and sound .
She looked around and knew it was time to end everything . The intent to kill flashed across her charming eyes .
It was time to pull in her net .
She Yu suddenly dived like a goshawk hunting its prey .
Wan Shenwei was sprinting with Ye Baiyi on his shoulder . He didn't hear the sound of the wind at all . There was a steep ridge coming up . Wan Shenwei bent forward in an angle that was almost parallel with the angle of the ridge .
His throat and chest were burning, and his legs felt like they were filled with lead .
His face used to be cold like it was carved out of a rock, but now, the lines of his face were twisted like taut steel wires that were about to snap at any time .
He kept changing his position and avoided She Yu's attacks with Ye Baiyi as his shield . The only thing he needed to be concerned about was preventing She Yu from snatching away Ye Baiyi .
Wan Shenwei dashed along the ridge like an agile antelope .
Light flickered in She Yu's eyes as she found that Wan Shenwei's speed had slowed down . It seemed as if he was exhausted like a spent arrow . She kept adjusting her position to attack him from different angles as if chasing her prey .
Wan Shenwei was already worn out and only held on until now because of his strong will . He was dodging almost by instinct as She Yu came closer .
In her heat, She Yu admired that even in such a predicament, he could still manage to dodge .
