Chapter 49 The exit collapsed, Xun Feng rushed over.
Zhongli shrugged and, without a word, revealed Ruoduo.
Liyue, the surface mining area.
"Achoo! Is someone thinking of me? Could it be Morax?"
Just as King Ruotu was momentarily stunned, he was kicked away by the Black Serpent Knight and fell towards the bottom of the mining area.
"Eh???"
Poor Naga King Ruoduo, like a fallen ball, bounced step by step from the mountaintop to the foot of the mountain.
The Black Serpent Knight's kick directly caused Ruoduo to collapse the road in front of the mine's exit, and even caused it to collapse all the way down to the foot of the mountain.
In an instant, the pitiful Dragon King Ruotu, who had fallen to the bottom of the valley, felt dizzy and disoriented.
Left with no other choice, it could only vaguely stretch out its ball-shaped body that it had curled up in the emergency.
"This is outrageous! I, the mighty Dragon King, have been beaten so badly by a mere knight."
While angrily stomping the earth, King Ruoduo also stared menacingly at the black serpent knight on the mountain.
The more Naga King Ruoduo thought about it, the angrier he became. He then used the power of the rock element to move upwards along the mountainside.
On this side, apart from Granny Ping, True Lord Liuyun Jiefeng, True Lord Xiaoyue Zhuyang, True Lord Lishui Dieshan, and the Great Sage Xiao who subdues demons, all the other immortals retreated.
After all, with such a massive monster, their presence here would only increase the burden and pose a danger to their lives.
Before leaving, Yanfei and the others didn't forget to say goodbye.
"Grandma, you have to be careful and don't get hurt."
"Master, Senior Sister Xiangling and I are just outside Caiqiao Valley. Call us anytime if you need help."
"I understand, children. Don't worry, as long as this old body of mine is still here, it won't be able to leave or hurt Liyue."
After she finished speaking, Grandma Ping's previously hunched figure became upright, and even her appearance changed, returning to her former youthful appearance.
Under Yao Yao's shocked gaze, Granny Ping soared into the sky and stopped beside True Lord Liuyun Jiefeng.
Before Yao Yao could ask a question, her senior sister Xiang Ling hurriedly pulled her away from the dangerous battlefield.
"Senior Sister Xiangling, why does our master... look so different?"
"My master is amazing! This is the first time I've ever seen her when she was young!"
Just as the Black Serpent Knight was pondering how to cross such a large collapsed gap, the immortals had already made preparations.
With a wave of her hand, Granny Ping directly buffed the other four immortals with a damage-increasing buff, which also included a shockwave effect.
Before the Black Serpent Knight could react, they all gathered around Gui Zhongji, concentrated their immortal power, and fired a shot at the Black Serpent Knight's head!
As expected, this powerful shot knocked the Black Serpent Knight off balance, causing him to drop his weapons and slowly fall backward.
Clang!
The Black Serpent Knight lay motionless on the ground, his immense weight ironically becoming the strongest aid to his own injury.
Even the armor on its head was half cracked, and one of its eyes had stopped shining, seemingly rendering it useless.
The trade-off is that the terminal machine temporarily overheats and needs time to cool down.
The immortals breathed a sigh of relief, but their gazes remained fixed on the direction of the Black Serpent Knight.
The athletic Dragon King Ruotu had just climbed to the exit when it heard a huge roar from the wood-gathering valley. Startled, it instinctively covered its head with its paws, trying to protect itself.
However, after stretching out its paws for a long time, it realized that its hands were too short to cover its head!
When it realized what was happening, it discovered that the return mechanism had been in operation.
"Thankfully, no one saw me covering my head in a sorry state just now, otherwise my image as a tall and mighty Dragon King would have been completely ruined!"
Reader: I saw it, but I didn't say anything.
Liyue, Wangshu Inn.
"Ying, I can't fly anymore... The sun is already setting, I think we should stay at this inn for the night and head back to Liyue tomorrow morning?"
On the way back to Liyue, Paimon bent down to massage his non-existent phantom limb, then looked at Ying pitifully.
Upon hearing her say that, Ying subconsciously looked up at the sky, and then... she instantly wondered if Paimon was really a geography genius.
"Paimon, you can rest for a while if you're tired. It's only 2 PM. Even if the sun is setting, it's not like we need to stay overnight at an inn!"
Ying sighed and rubbed her forehead in exasperation.
On the one hand, it was indeed not yet evening; on the other hand, Ying seemed to have very little Mora left in her pocket!
"Alright then, let's go to Wangshu Inn to get something to eat and rest before we continue our journey!"
After Paimon compromised, he happily flew to the front, acting as the leader.
Ying, who was left with only her wallet in her pocket silently lamenting her fate, froze on the spot.
"So you still have to spend money?!"
Fifteen minutes later.
While tears streamed down her face, Ying slurped up mouthfuls of Liyue's specialty noodles.
Qiqi sat down beside her, drinking freshly delivered coconut milk.
To save money, Paimon, who usually eats five bowls of noodles, only ate three this time!
"Ying, I'm good to you, right? Hehe, this time I'm really thinking about your wallet~"
Ying: ...6!
The truth is that Paimon, being greedy, poured all the chopped chili peppers from Jueyun Jiaojiao into the noodles, which is why she ate three bowls and was covered in sweat!
It took two full bottles of spring water for me to recover.
On the way to the Abyss of Layered Rocks.
"Hu Tao, for your safety's sake, you should go back to the Hall of Rebirth. I can really manage on my own."
"No, no, I really can't rest easy without me by your side. Even just cheering you on from the sidelines would be my contribution!"
Having said that, Hu Tao arrogantly turned her head away and let out a soft snort.
"Okay, but let's make it clear first, you're not allowed to run ahead of me."
Xunfeng couldn't persuade her otherwise, so he had no choice but to agree.
However, on the way to the Abyss of Layered Rocks, Xunfeng had already secretly cast a colorless and odorless transparent light barrier on Hu Tao.
As long as sunlight is still present, this barrier will not disappear automatically.
As the two approached the area of Caiqiao Valley, they saw Xiangling, Yanfei, and Yaoyao standing outside the mountain pass.
"Xiangling? I never expected that a chef like you would actually come to help fight against monsters! This master is quite impressed with you!"
Hu Tao clapped his hands in admiration, then his eyes lit up and he made up a limerick.
"The pig is cooked and trained in martial arts, while the head chef wields the spear."
"Huh? Hehe, I'm just following my master, it's not as good as you say! Our contribution is less than one percent of what our master does!"
"This master won't allow you to doubt yourself! Being able to do your part is already commendable!"
"Master Hu, could it be that you're here to help too?"
Yan Fei, standing to the side, raised a finger to her lips, then looked up at the sky with a distinctly questioning expression.
