The rain was pouring heavily. Although there were towering trees in the forest providing so cover, the rain inside was still trendous.
Ling Zhenfei was secretly hiding on a tree in the distance, his soul out of body, always following Ru ng and the others, looking for a good opportunity.
Although everyone's strength was strong, being continuously soaked by the rain was quite unbearable, not to ntion girls like Ru ng.
Ru ng said, "Brothers, should we find a place to shelter from the rain a bit? Staying here for the night would be very unwise."
Protector Leng said, "This place isn't great, but compared to those places with treasure-guarding wolves, it's already quite good, so let's endure a bit longer."
Ru ng didn't want to continue talking after hearing this, so she remained silent. To be honest, Ling Zhenfei also felt it wasn't good for a girl to be caught in the rain like this.
But there was no choice now, since his strength hadn't fully recovered.
At that mont, he suddenly felt the rain in the sky stop unexpectedly, startling them. It was unlikely for such heavy rain to just suddenly stop.
Looking up, they suddenly discovered a Giant Eagle perched atop the very tree they were under. The eagle was spreading its wings and flapping.
Because of this motion, none of the rain from above fell through, all blocked by the eagle's enormous body.
Ling Zhenfei was delighted, thinking that this was the mont he'd been waiting for. The last ti, the Giant Eagle chased him out from Xianling Mountain before leaving.
This ti, the Giant Eagle followed out as well, but instead of him, it was following Protector Leng and others who had fought the Giant Python last.
Ling Zhenfei knew the Giant Eagle was very patient, and since they were deep in the forest where he couldn't perform well, he was waiting for an open space where the Eagle would make its move.
Of course, Protector Leng and the others also noticed the Eagle, and they imdiately uttered cries of horror.
"Why has this Eagle followed us?"
"We were in such a hurry to find a place to rest because of the rain that we didn't notice the Eagle had followed us. What does this Eagle want?"
"I guess we all might beco appetizers for this Eagle; it won't turn back until it eats us."
"Don't mind it now; in these mountain heights and dense forests, the Eagle can't really exert itself. I don't believe it dares follow us to Blood Oath Sect.
If it truly dares co to our Blood Oath Sect, I'll make it the sect's mascot at the gate."
Protector Leng was clearly still wary of the Eagle; he must have suffered at their hands before.
Ling Zhenfei was inwardly overjoyed; with this Eagle present, the likelihood of rescuing Ru ng seed greater.
The group found a place with the least rain, using leaves or tree trunks to shield the rain, then all entered cultivation.
Ling Zhenfei knew Ru ng wasn't in the mood for cultivation now; cultivation required inner peace, which Ru ng couldn't achieve now.
Ling Zhenfei directed his Divine Sense towards Ru ng, and it had connected with hers countless tis.
Ru ng didn't resist at all when she felt Ling Zhenfei's Divine Sense, instantly rging with it.
Ling Zhenfei spoke to Ru ng, "Hello, Lady Ru ng, we et again."
Ru ng seed very excited, saying, "I knew you would co."
Ling Zhenfei was puzzled, asking, "How are you so sure?"
Ru ng said, "It's just an intuition; if you didn't co, wouldn't that disappoint ?"
Ling Zhenfei chuckled, "Really? Are you still disappointed now?"
Ru ng said, "Not anymore, I'm quite touched. But you shouldn't co to rescue ."
Ling Zhenfei was surprised, asking, "Why?"
Ru ng said, "You're not their match; you should leave quickly. Don't risk your life for ."
Ling Zhenfei said, "How can that be right? Who deliberately left a scarf for to co save you?"
Ru ng said, "Yes, leaving the scarf was indeed to make you co save , but now that I know you're injured and not their match, I can't let you co to die."
Ling Zhenfei said, "What do you an by 'co to die'? Does saving soone always an fighting the enemy? I can rescue you with strategy. Do you believe that?"
Ru ng said, "Then I really should thank you. In these deep forests, where can I run to? Even if I'm rescued, we'd just be fleeing together, wouldn't it be the sa?"
Ling Zhenfei paused; Ru ng made sense. Even if she was rescued, they'd still be pursued by Protector Leng and the others.
Ling Zhenfei said, "So what's your plan, really hand yourself to that 'Young Master'?"
Ru ng said, "What else can be done? We're destined for death since birth, grood from childhood for this. It's just a matter of dying a year or two later, no difference."
Ling Zhenfei said, "No way; I'll find a way to rescue you no matter what."
Ling Zhenfei, I think you shouldn't waste your efforts. You ca to find Immortal Herbs to save your friend, right? You have them now, so go save him.
Ling Zhenfei said, "That friend is important, but you're also my friend. If I abandon you for him, what's the point of doing all this?"
Ru ng was slightly stunned; she'd once asked Ling Zhenfei if he would risk everything to save her if she were in danger.
The answer had been affirmative, and Ru ng had been sowhat skeptical, but now she believed Ling Zhenfei was truly that kind of person.
"Ling Zhenfei, you're so foolish; knowing this is dangerous, don't you hesitate at all?" Ru ng's words were filled with emotion.
"If a friend is in danger, and they're right in front of now, should I act ignorant? I can't do that.
Ling Zhenfei's words filled Ru ng with emotion. She said, "What you're doing really leaves unsure of how to repay you."
Ling Zhenfei laughed, saying, "Repaynt? If I needed repaynt, I wouldn't have said anything. Don't worry, I'll find a way to save you."
"Alright, I'll do as you say." Ru ng finally agreed, but her eyes were already brimming with tears.
Ling Zhenfei knew now wasn't the best ti to rescue, but he had a sudden thought about a perfect rescue point, which still required waiting.
