Chapter 2220: Chapter 2220: A Doctor Shocks the World (5)
No one expected the disaster to come so quickly.
The sound of wailing echoed in the Black Night.
The hanging bright moon seemed to be stained with blood, turning red.
The Demonic Beasts progressed relentlessly, quickly reaching Chuzheng, with deafening roars exploding in the flat ground.
One of them saw Chuzheng, leapt up, its claw cutting diagonally through the air.
Chuzheng retreated, pressing against her coffin.
Crash—
The Demonic Beast’s massive body broke the window, squeezing itself inside.
"Wait a minute!!"
Before Chuzheng’s words were finished, the Demonic Beast opened its bloody mouth, biting over without any question.
Chuzheng’s heart skipped a beat, grabbing her coffin to dodge.
This Demonic Beast was different from the ones Chuzheng had encountered before, evidently much more formidable.
Bang—
The Demonic Beast was kicked by Chuzheng, crashing out of the window.
Chuzheng heard a beast roar below.
Then—
Several Demonic Beasts jumped up simultaneously.
Chuzheng: "..."
Whoa!
Can’t do this!
If you can’t win, you call for help!
Bullying a weak, helpless, little innocent like me, do you have any shame?
The Demonic Beasts didn’t know what shame was, quickly surrounding Chuzheng.
Deep in their eyes, an excited green glow shimmered.
As if Chuzheng was already a delicious snack in their eyes.
Chuzheng: "..."
Ha!
Chuzheng twisted her wrist, turning two circles.
Looks like it’s time to teach you manners!
-
Demonic Beasts invaded the city, death in tow.
The sound of collapsing buildings, the terrified screams of crowds, the clanging sounds of Cultivators fighting, and the soaring flames turned this city into Purgatory.
A young man in white clothes moved through the chaos.
He didn’t look very old, carrying a box, running in a way indicating he was injured.
Around him were many people running forward, attracting Demonic Beasts over.
The person closest to the young man saw the Demonic Beast’s claw about to descend and suddenly pushed the young man over.
The young man stumbled and fell to the ground with a thud.
Rumble—
A loud noise overhead, the young man looked up.
A black, bar-shaped object fell from above, the young man watched as the object descended.
The coffin flew in an angle, hitting the Demonic Beast away, crashing to the ground and flipping to the side.
Chuzheng followed closely, quickly touched the coffin, asking, "Is it damaged?"
She turned to the other side and saw the young man pressed under the coffin.
"..."
One leg of the young man was pinned by the coffin, in the dim light, his expression couldn’t be deciphered.
Chuzheng was a bit panicked.
Why did it pin someone? How on earth did this... Wait, this person?
Chuzheng intended to run, but something felt off, she moved two steps closer, observed for a moment.
Kind of looks like a Good Person Card...
But the moment I appeared, I crushed the Good Person Card’s leg, looks injured pretty badly, can he still be saved?
If I kill him now, would it be timely to overturn?
[Miss Sister, it’s too late.] The King’s Account shattered her fantasy.
"..."
How about taking advantage of Night Color and running away!?
[Miss Sister, can you act like a human?]
"Roar—"
The Demonic Beast hit away by the coffin was slowly climbing up, eyes flashing gold stars, shakily confirming the position of the perpetrator.
After locking onto Chuzheng, it let out a low roar, lunging at her.
Chuzheng: "!!!"
Don’t be so enthusiastic!
The Demonic Beast enthusiastically gave Chuzheng a bear hug, Chuzheng dodged away from the coffin, the Demonic Beast’s body veered along.
The two reached the collapsed ruins beside them.
Chuzheng didn’t know what was happening with this body, but it didn’t hinder her from using its instincts and strength.
The Demonic Beast got slapped away by Chuzheng, yet it wasn’t afraid, it grew even more excited.
Under the bright moon, in the hazy light and shadow, the Demonic Beast and a slender human silhouette darted back and forth.
In the air, there was a streaming silver glow, converging around the Demonic Beast.
The scene was like moonlight flowing down from the sky.
The Demonic Beast growled low, its claws scraped deep marks on the ground, attempting to deliver one final blow to the person opposite.
Unfortunately, just as it took a strike position, the surrounding silver light tightened abruptly.
The crisscrossed silver lights cut through the Demonic Beast’s body.
Moonlight, ruins, smoke, silver glow, the Split corpse of the Demonic Beast gradually dissipated...
The flowing moonlight fell upon the straight-standing girl.
The silver glow gathered towards her like falling stars in the night sky, as if standing amidst starlight.
In the eyes of the young man, everything seemed to slow down.
He pale-faced looked on, whether it was because of his leg being pinned or the shock from the scene.
Chuzheng was a bit far from the coffin, her body began to weaken.
She collected the Yin Xian, quickly returning to the coffin’s side.
As soon as she stood firmly, she met the young man’s gaze.
Chuzheng: "..."
Why are you looking at me?
Have you been bewitched by my impressive display?
[Miss Sister, you sure you don’t want to help the Good Person Card out first?]
"..."
Chuzheng sighed inwardly, opened the coffin.
The young man was clearly in pain, yet he remained silent, once the coffin was moved, he supported himself to stand.
"Can you manage?"
The young girl’s clear voice rang out, the young man paused, slowly lifted his head to look at her.
Chuzheng felt at least three to four seconds passed before the young man faintly responded with an ’um’.
After a few more seconds, he slowly uttered, "I... can."
This statement was unclear if it was meant for himself or Chuzheng.
However, the voice was pleasant.
With the moonlight, Chuzheng barely discerned the young man’s outline.
How to put it...
He’s the type who could instantly become the leading beauty if dressed as a woman, fragile and weak.
Yet, it wouldn’t make people feel his look was inappropriate for a boy.
As if he was naturally meant to be so beautiful...
Chuzheng licked her canine tooth with her tongue, finally thought to reach out and support the young man.
"Can you walk?"
The young man slowly nodded: "Um." Quite obediently.
Chuzheng sensed that most of the young man’s body weight was supported by her.
If she let go, he’d surely fall.
This is called capable?
Is he an idiot?
Chuzheng’s exchange with the young man didn’t last long, as Demonic Beasts approached from afar.
Chuzheng grabbed the young man, tossed him into the coffin.
The young man’s world spun, when he realized, the coffin moved, the ruins of half-collapsed buildings rapidly receded beside them.
The young man grasped the edge to steady himself, with an anxious voice: "My box!"
But the person in front pulling the coffin didn’t pay him any mind.
The young man gritted his teeth, intending to climb out.
Chuzheng noticed the other’s movement, only to stop and toss him back: "What box?"
The young man fell back into the coffin again.
"It’s this big, it was right next to me just now..." The young man gestured the size.
Chuzheng glanced in that direction, several Demonic Beasts were coming over, the place they stood previously was within the Demonic Beast’s range now.
Going back now would be asking for death.
"Very important?"
"...Yes." The young man clutched the coffin edge again, trying to get up: "I... will find it myself, won’t... won’t trouble you."
