Chapter 1770: Chapter 684: Desperate Strike_2

After throwing the spear, the headless knight remained "watching" the situation below. Besides the headless knight, no one knew that opening the altar required immense space energy. Although the altar appeared to be undergoing significant changes, it couldn’t be opened. This allowed the headless knight to calmly kill those intercepting him, but later he realized he couldn’t quickly defeat all enemies, so to avoid further complications, he decided to quickly kill Lu Pingping and extinguish their hopes.

Everything was under the control of the headless knight originally, but no one expected that Yan Fei suddenly opened a space channel on the altar, appearing here from an unknown location and protecting the already desperate Lu Pingping. However, even Yan Fei’s presence couldn’t sabotage the headless knight’s plan, because Yan Fei was not a match for the headless knight. But a more bizarre thing happened; the altar unexpectedly absorbed Yan Fei’s space energy, also using the space channel as a bridge to absorb space energy from an unknown space.

After absorbing so much space energy, the space channel below was ready to open at any time. After discovering this unexpected situation, the headless knight was furious. His spear was amazing, and although swallowed by spatial fluctuations, it was sent somewhere unknown, it soon returned to the horse’s saddle. Yet it encountered something unknown, reducing the spear’s size to two-thirds of its original, and bearing scars as if seriously damaged.

On the altar, the once despairing Lu Pingping saw Yan Fei appear suddenly and pull her into his embrace, immediately becoming emotional. She originally thought herself strong enough to face any hardship, yet upon seeing Yan Fei, she could no longer hold back her grievances, and wept bitterly in Yan Fei’s arms...

Yan Fei comforted Lu Pingping by patting her back, while quickly thinking of a contingency plan. His original plan was excellent; quickly retrieving Lu Pingping and leaving with no need to engage the enemies here. Yet he did not expect the altar to suddenly steal his power, causing the space channel to disappear. Without the space channel, Yan Fei couldn’t quickly leave with Lu Pingping.

In Yan Fei’s perception, the altar continued to quickly absorb Dreamland Cave World’s energy. This altar was very eerie; once invading someone’s domain, it unashamedly absorbs energy, ignoring the owner’s nearby shouts and cries. Despite Yan Fei trying every conceivable method, he couldn’t slow down the loss of Dreamland Cave World’s energy.

In a very short time, Dreamland Cave World’s initially abundant energy was reduced to a tenth of its original value. At this point, the altar stopped absorbing space energy from Dreamland Cave World, but the energy accumulated over ten thousand years by Dreamland Cave World turned into the altar’s resources to open the high-dimensional space channel.

Dreamland Cave World suffered heavy losses, but Yan Fei didn’t panic. As long as people remain, the lost energy can be regained one day. Now, he also realized he’d been manipulated again. The one who manipulated him should have set eyes on the abundant energy within the Dreamland Cave World, hence tricking him into coming here. Although he rescued Lu Pingping, the price was significant, the abundant energy within Dreamland Cave World being sacrificed.

Though Yan Fei was distressed, he didn’t dwell on this matter, instead reconnecting with Dreamland Cave World to open another space channel here. Despite its significant loss, Dreamland Cave World still had enough energy leftover to open several temporary space channels. But to Yan Fei’s disappointment, the altar’s violent spatial fluctuations prevented him from locating his spatial coordinates, naturally making it impossible to open another space channel between Dreamland Cave World and here. To open a space channel again, he must move away from the interference here.

Seeing the grave expression on Yan Fei’s face, Lu Pingping finally ceased crying and guiltily said, "Fei, I’m sorry, I implicated you."

Yan Fei, while observing the surrounding environment, said, "Pingping, why would you say that? You didn’t implicate me at all!"

Lu Pingping said, "Because of my insistent nature, I left Dream Island and you had to come here to save me. Your important task must have been delayed, I’m sorry."

Yan Fei smiled and replied, "To me, you are the most important matter! I was initially worried for your safety, but upon seeing you unharmed, I felt relieved. Rest assured! With me here, no one can harm you."

Lu Pingping said no more, resting her head against Yan Fei’s chest. Feeling the warmth from Yan Fei’s embrace, reminiscent of the night he saved her from the Assassin Sect from high altitude. Though the outside seemed dangerous now, Lu Pingping was confident, believing Yan Fei would surely rescue her.

Although Yan Fei comforted Lu Pingping casually, he knew the situation was dire. He had a premonition of someone scheming against him before, preventing his drone from successfully upgrading, yet didn’t expect such a method, forcing him to rescue Lu Pingping and appear in this unknown dangerous place unexpectedly.
