Chapter 251 - 236: Bloody Sought Flower; Vicious Battle Against White No-Face
Right then, the three felt at the same time a wave of surging heat coming from below, and they all cried together, "WATCH OUT!" and their feet moved faster. Seven to eight pillars of fire charged to the skies, and looking down, there were now even more molten resentful spirits!
"Feng Xin, give Mu Qing to me!" Xie Lian called out.
Without another word, Feng Xin tossed Mu Qing to him from his back, and once on Xie Lian's back, Mu Qing exclaimed, "Put them down quick! What a nuisance!"
"I don't need you to tell me!" Feng Xin replied, and pulled the bowstring back, shooting multiple rounds at once. The attacking area of his weapon was far wider than Xie Lian and Feng Xin blindly shooting blasts, and the arrows exploded the lava waves, the surges erupting high into the air, and screams came all around. "Nice work!" Xie Lian complimented.
"It's alright, I guess!" Mu Qing commented from his back.
The resentful spirits were full of rancor, and after huddling, they swam much further ahead, working together to blow flames. After several rumblings, Xie Lian said, "The stretch of the bridge ahead had been burnt through by them, they want to block our way out!"
Feng Xin cursed, "Fucking god, look at them huddling like that working so hard together, why can't they go do something else instead of harming people! I doubt any of you will be able to receive absolution and escape the lava for another eight thousand years if you keep that up!"
The moment he raised his bow, those molten resentful spirits all scattered again. Xie Lian spoke up, "Alright, don't yell anymore, get ready! We're gonna jump! One, two, three–!!"
On the count of one they started to increase power and speeding up, on the count of two they calculated the number of steps, and on three, their feet pushed off and jumped – three figures leapt into the air, passing through the broken gap between the bridge, and landed on the other side, then they continued their mad dash. That bridge was made for "crossing to the heavens", so naturally it would gradually slope up, but Xie Lian was becoming as light as a swallow the more he ran, "It's been a long time since the three of us did something like this, huh!"
"Do you mean fighting side by side, or running for our lives?" Mu Qing questioned.
"Both!" Xie Lian said.
