Chapter 314: A Battle To The Death (1)

Hearing Xiu Wu’s question, Zhu Lin turned around and asked, "Xiu Wu, have we left Province S?"

Xiu Wu shook his head and said, "Not yet. We still need to pass through one more city to reach the border area. Without zombies or mutants blocking our path, it would take about six or seven hours to reach the border."

"Do you feel uncomfortable sitting in the car for a long time?" He asked, with a hint of concern in his voice.

Zhu Lin shook her head and said, "I was just surprised by the situation outside the Wu Lin base. I thought that by eliminating zombies and mutants and opening the base to accept everyone, we could save more people. But now, I realize how naive my thinking was."

Xiu Wu held her hand, gently stroked her cheek, and said, "We have tried our best. Don’t think too much."

Zhu Lin sighed, looked at the barren land, and said softly: "I don’t know how many people can survive in the end."

Looking at her expression, Xiu Wu knew that her innate personality as a god made her blame herself whenever she failed to save all sentient beings. This is the personality he hates most about the gods. These powerful gods should be more self-interested and live for themselves instead of devoting their lives for strangers.

Thinking of the gods who died to protect the Six Realms and countless small worlds, Xiu Wu gritted his teeth. He pulled her close and hugged her while thinking: ’I should let her be reincarnated as a devil instead of a god. Unfortunately, there is no way for her god bone to turn into a devil bone. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be so troublesome for us to stay together.’

While the two of them were hugging each other, the soldiers were already resting in groups of ten. Since the temperature was cold, they built a small campfire and sat around it to keep warm.

Looking at the white steam coming out when she breathed, Zhu Lin said thoughtfully: "I thought the temperature would get warmer. But after the temperature dropped to minus three degrees Celsius, there was no change for a long time."

Hearing what she said, Xiu Wu glanced at his watch. It was already April 11th, but the weather was still so cold.

He looked up at the sky thoughtfully and said, "I used to not believe it when the military base released information that said winter would last at least another year or two. But now, it seems that is really going to happen."

Zhu Lin also looked up at the sky, recalled the scene on the day she summoned Wei Qi, and said, "I think this strange weather is not natural."

Xiu Wu looked at her and asked, "What do you mean?"

"The day we caught the young man and the little girl, I summoned Wei Qi. But there was a barrier preventing him from coming to this world. At that time, I thought that it was because of my lack of cultivation that prevented Wei Qi from descending. But now, I don’t think that is the case." She replied while staring at the dark sky.

After hearing her answer, Xiu Wu suddenly thought about Lu Qiu, frowned and said, "Lu Qiu hasn’t contacted us for a long time. I wonder what happened on the Six Realms."

While Xiu Wu and Zhu Lin were wondering what happened to Lu Qiu, the Dragon God was busy running away from his pursuers. As he flew through the night sky, he looked back and saw the black lights behind him getting closer and closer.

"Damn it! These devils are so annoying!" He cursed, gritted his teeth, and accelerated his flying speed.

After fleeing for more than two days, Lu Qiu’s divine energy was almost exhausted. Since there is only devil energy in this small world, he cannot replenish his energy, but his pursuers are like fish in the heavenly lake with unexhausted energy. At this moment, Lu Qiu knew that running was useless and only consumed his divine energy faster, so he decided to stop running.

Boom!

Due to lack of divine energy, he was temporarily unable to control his body. He fell to the ground so hard that cracks appeared under his feet. He was breathing heavily, and when he looked up, his pursuers were also landing on the ground one after another.

A few seconds later, the black lights morphed into a group of devils. When Lu Qiu saw the mask of the leader of the pursuers clearly, his eyes flickered in surprise.

Looking at his surprised expression, the leader chuckled and asked, "High God Lu Qiu, you seem surprised to see this king here. This king thought you already knew a lot of things that you shouldn’t know and knew that this king would come to hunt you down."

Lu Qiu looked at the group of devils in front of him with a sneer and said, "Tian Guanxiang, it’s really surprising that you came to this small world in person. I wonder, what would happen if I told the Devil God about what you were doing when he was not around? It will be fun to watch him punish you all while eating melon seeds."

When Tian Guanxiang heard that Lu Qiu was going to report everything to the Devil God, his eyes flashed with panic.

But soon, he sneered and said with a slight anger in his tone: "Do you think this king is so easy to deceive? The Devil God has disappeared for more than a thousand years. Whether he is still alive or not, no one is sure. But what is certain is that this king is now the ruler of the Devil Realm."

Lu Qiu looked at Tian Guanxiang with pity, shook his head and said, "You really won’t cry before you see the coffin."

Seeing the clear pity in Lu Qiu’s eyes, Tian Guanxiang became furious. His hand shook, and a long spear appeared in his hand. Tian Guanxiang held his weapon and sneered: "Ha! You have such a big mouth! This king will personally send you into the cycle of reincarnation!"
