Chapter 70: A Desperate Battle
Yen Chen smiled as he saw who was fighting, but his face darkened as he realized the group's plight.
"Husband, what happened?" Lili asked seeing her expression.
"There are some acquaintances of mine fighting some people 700 km away, come on," said Yen Chen and then teleported directly there.
The four nodded and followed him, Lili and Zoe used their teleportation and took the two tigresses with them.
……………
30 minutes ago, five figures with black cloaks covering their faces can be seen passing through the interior of the forest of death with their mounts, the fire horses were already breathing heavily, tired from the journey.
"Come on, we have to go faster" said the leader of the group.
“Yes Sister Emily is right, we can't waste time” The deputy group leader agreed.
“Hehehe sister Aiya you say that, and is the slowest of the bunch” The third person with the cape said.
"Um, Rose is not the time for games," Emily scolded her.
Aiya squirmed but she was silent and didn't say anything, a few minutes passed they were at their full speed trying to get out of the inner part of the Forest of Death.
“Something is very wrong here,” said the fourth hooded person.
"I feel it too sister Annchi, we should go fast" Rose agreed with her.
“Stop” The small hooded person asked the fire horses to stop.
"Miss Jiao, something happened" Emily asked.
"You should leave now." Jiao didn't answer Emily and said it out loud.
Everyone in the group looked at her with strange eyes, but soon their expressions changed.
“Hehehe as expected from the Princess of the Empire” A tall middle aged man with blue eyes and blond hair appeared from the Void followed by nine other men.
They all had their Cultivation in the Advanced or Peak Stage of the Kingdom heaven, and the blond man's Cultivation was in the Middle Stage of the Heaven Realm.
Seeing this group, the five were left with grim expressions, although they are strong, fighting nine Cultivators from the Kingdom heaven and one from the Heavenly Realm and too much for them.
*Sigh*
"It seems that you also betrayed Empress General Chen" Emily sighed and said disappointedly.
“This is not treason, we are just changing the ruler to a much better one, she is very pacifist and does not sacrifice a few lives for the sake of the Empire” General Chen spoke with disgust.
"Your ideals are twisted," Rose said with disgust.
The others agreed with her words, the general and his men were angry.
"You'd better surrender, and maybe after we've used you a little, we'll release you." General Chen spoke with lustful eyes, looking at the four who were in front of Jiao.
"Um, a disgusting pervert as rumored" Aiya said with disgust.
The general's face contorted in anger, he promised to make them beg for forgiveness when he caught them.
"take them"
He ordered and all nine men attacked, all four drew their weapons and prepared to fight while protecting Jiao.
Soon the battle started, the four tried to protect Jiao as much as possible, Rose with her blood colored swords was fighting two advanced stage Cultivators from the Kingdom of Heaven , Aiya and Annchi were also fighting two and Emily was fighting three alone, two from the Advanced Stage and one from Pico.
Even though they have Cultivations 2 Stages below them, they are very strong but there are too many and they are starting to get tired, especially Emily who is fighting against 3 at the same time, Jiao can only look at them sadly she can't do anything since she was the weakest of the group.
*bang*
Explosions occurred in that part of the forest, Rose threw red bars with her sword at both Cultivators.
*bang*
The two of them dodged with difficulty, they already had cuts all over their bodies, but Rose was no better as the blood could be seen coming out of her small body and staining her black robe.
The others weren't doing any better either, their Qi was running low and they already had multiple wounds all over their bodies, Jiao bit her lip in frustration at not being able to help.
*bang*
*demonic claws*
*bang*
Aiya attacked using her abilities, two sharp claws appeared behind her and collided with the two Cultivators' swords creating a huge explosion.
She bit her lip in frustration seeing that they were fine after the dust had settled, she then attacked them again and the battle continued.
Annchi was fighting two advanced stage and peak cultivators, her using her plant element was controlling several tree roots within a 10 kilometer radius, the two who were fighting her found it difficult to move.
"Fire Bird"
“Blades of Wind”
The two used their attacks to destroy these roots.
*boom*
The skills collided with the roots causing loud explosions.
"Damn it"
They were angry after seeing that new roots had taken the place of the ones that had been destroyed.
"Go"
Annchi didn't care and continued to attack them with the sharp points of the roots, the two dodged with great difficulty and received several minor injuries.
Emily wasn't in good shape she had too much vacation on her body and her robe was a little torn.
"Fire balls"
Several fireballs appeared in front of her and she threw them at the three Cultivators, all three saw this and used Qi as a barrier.
*boom*
The fireballs collided with the Qi barriers and exploded.
"damn it"
Emily was worried, she knew they couldn't get out of this situation even if they could win, these men still have the general watching the fight and he will act once it's over.
"Sword of Wind and Fire"
She used two elements at once to deal more damage. Seeing those Wind and Fire swords heading towards them, the three used their skills quickly.
“Water Arrows”
"Blade of Darkness-Second Level"
“Scarlet Fists”
They combined and used their strongest attacks together.
*bang*
A huge explosion was created catching everyone's attention, this explosion could be seen from a few kilometers away, the three Cultivators were pushed back and Emily was sent flying until she hit a tree and spit blood.
*Cough cough*
"Sister Emily!!"
Everyone screamed seeing Emily hurt, Jiao was very sad and felt useless, Emily looked at the three Cultivators who were coming towards her and gave a sad smile.
"Sorry sister Jia I couldn't protect she" She said looking at the Sky, she had promised to protect her but couldn't keep the promise.
