Anxious Zhao Yueyue didn't know that she was concerned about the babies. It had been delayed for a long time. Wouldn't they all die? If so, she would blame herself to death.
Thinking of this, Zhao Yueyue ran at her maximum speed, so fast that even Cheng Xuan, who was in the middle stage of Nascent Soul, could hardly catch up with her. She didn't look like she was pregnant at all.
Cheng Xuan's surprised gaze fell on the anxious Zhao Yueyue, and finally a smile appeared in his eyes.
The little apprentice sister is still the same as before, cold on the outside but warm on the inside, how great!
So just like that, the two of them came to the altar with the help of the shadow-chasing bugs and the demonic energy that had not yet completely dissipated.
But the tragic situation on the altar still made Cheng Xuan, who was prepared, feel nervous.
"Third Brother, hurry up and save them! Saving those babies will stop the ritual!"
Cheng Xuan knew that a minute of delay at this moment might cost the life of a baby, so without further ado, he and Zhao Yueyue rushed towards the group of babies one after the other.
As a result, the two men did not pounce on the group of babies as they had imagined, but instead crashed into a barrier.
"Bang——"
This barrier even has the ability to reflect, and it directly bounced the two people who rushed up away.
The unexpected rebound caused the two people to be thrown several steps forward before they could stabilize themselves.
Cheng Xuan frowned: "There is actually a protective barrier here? Lin Yue, get out of the way! I'll break the barrier!"
"good!"
This barrier was obviously not simple, and it was not something Zhao Yueyue could break by herself, so she just obediently made way.
Upon seeing this, Cheng Xuan took out his sword, condensed the sword energy, and then chopped it down fiercely. Unexpectedly, the barrier was not broken, and even the barrier flashed, and Cheng Xuan's attack was about to be rebounded again.
"Third Brother, be careful!"
Zhao Yueyue exclaimed, Cheng Xuan was no show-off, he immediately jumped away alertly, making the rebound fail.
"Bang!"
The sword exploded behind the two men.
After the storm subsided, Cheng Xuan and the others looked at the barrier seriously.
"It's not simple to be able to rebound the attack! Although I know it may not be broken by simple violence, but time waits for no one!"
Cheng Xuan frowned tightly, but then he thought of something and took out something.
"Since it is related to the Heavenly Demon Clan, then this thing should be effective." Cheng Xuan murmured softly, then his eyes swept over Zhao Yueyue's face full of curiosity, and his eyes became firm again.
Finally, throw the thing in your hand into the barrier.
Then a miracle happened!
It looked like a simple piece of unknown debris, but when it flew over the barrier, the barrier that looked very tough suddenly shook violently, and then slowly melted away in front of Zhao Yueyue's stunned eyes.
After everything melted, the fragments completed their mission. Although part of it disappeared, some of it still existed. Cheng Xuan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this.
Then he walked forward to pick it up, but it suddenly disappeared from his hand and flew towards Zhao Yueyue, which scared her.
"Fuck, don't come over here!"
Zhao Yueyue exclaimed, if he could destroy the barrier with one move, wouldn't it be easy to kill her?
So Zhao Yueyue clenched her sword while shouting, "Third Brother!"
A loud shout woke Cheng Xuan up. Seeing this, Cheng Xuan's face changed and he instantly flashed to Zhao Yueyue's side and grabbed her.
Feeling the fragments struggling in his palm, Cheng Xuan had no choice but to whisper: "Not yet, the timing is not right. If we fuse them at this time, it will do more harm than good to her!"
This made the fragments quiet down.
Cheng Xuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, then quickly collected the fragments.
"It's okay!"
Zhao Yueyue was relieved, and then exclaimed: "Children!"
After saying that, his body turned into lightning and rushed forward again, preventing Cheng Xuan from finishing the explanation he was about to say.
With a helpless smile, Cheng Xuan rushed forward.
But... it was too late!
Even though only an incense stick and a half had passed since Zhao Yueyue notified them, the hundreds of children in front of them were all fragile babies!
The older one was only seven or eight months old, and the younger one was just born. How could they still be alive after being bled like this?
The more Zhao Yueyue observed, the sadder she became, and her tears couldn't stop flowing.
Looking at the baby with a lifeless face and a stiff body, Zhao Yueyue burst into tears.
"Baby, wake up, baby!"
The healing techniques in his hands were continuously transmitted into the bodies of these poor children, but rejuvenation techniques could heal injuries but could not bring the dead back to life.
Zhao Yueyue didn't believe it, so she maintained the magic and slowly expanded the scope. She didn't believe that among so many children, none of them were still alive.
"Please, wake up!"
Seeing Zhao Yueyue so sad, Cheng Xuan couldn't bear it, but his cultivation was higher and he had already realized that these children were all dead.
He even looked at the altar at his feet with a heavy face. The blood of many children had gathered in those narrow ravines. Cheng Xuan watched them form a trickle and slowly flow to the foot of the huge statue in front.
The red blood was slowly absorbed by the statue! Cheng Xuan also discovered that the statue in front of him was becoming less and less like a dead object, as if it were alive.
Even one of those eyes turned completely red!
Even the remaining one has turned half red!
"Oh no! This is a demon summoning ritual! And it's about to succeed! Once the last bit of blood is absorbed by the statue, the demon will awaken!"
Seeing this, Cheng Xuan immediately flew over to stop it, but he found out it was too late, the last of the blood was about to be absorbed by the statue!
"roar--"
A demonic sound was heard, and the last eye of the statue was dyed red.
And when the moment was dyed red, the demon in front of him appeared, and as soon as he appeared, he roared and directly shook away Cheng Xuan who was flying towards him.
"What a nice smell! Is this the human world? Haha, it's really good. There's a big gift as soon as I wake up. Great!"
As he was about to stand up, his pair of scarlet eyes immediately fixed on Cheng Xuan and Zhao Yueyue.
"They brought me a feast right away. These slaves are really smart!"
When being stared at by those eyes, Cheng Xuan felt as if he was being stared at by a terrifying creature. Based on his previous experience of coming into contact with the devil, this was a genuine devil!
So, run away!
Facing the pressure from the demon, Cheng Xuan wanted to take Zhao Yueyue and escape.
"Lin Yue, hurry, run!"
Unexpectedly, he failed to catch the person.
"Wait a little longer, I can feel that the child is not dead yet!"
"Don't wait any longer. If we don't leave, we'll die here too!"
This was the first time that he, who had always been taciturn, yelled at someone like this, but Zhao Yueyue really sensed the child's aura.
"Hahaha, you want to run? No way!"
The demon Mo'an found it ridiculous that two ants wanted to escape from the great Mo'an.
After saying that, he was about to take action, but who knew that he would fail.
