After dealing with the little spiders on her, Xia Rutu had only 1% of her health left. She quickly switched back to mage mode, restored a little health, and headed for the cave entrance.
Just then, Zhao Xingyue saw a world announcement: “Chaoci Baidi, leader of the Red Sun Purgatory guild, was killed by a poisonous spider in the North City Spider Cave.” She immediately messaged Xia Rutu: “How’s it going?”
“Cao Pi’s wife goes into the vegetable garden.”
“?”
“Zhen Ji picks vegetables.”
“What kind of filthy talk is that? Can you get to the point? When are you coming back? What do you need us to do?”
“Why would I come back? I’m probably going to die here.”
“Didn’t Chaoci Baidi die?”
“There are still over a hundred people waiting outside.”
“Find a way to stay alive.”
“With things like this, sneaking around with someone won’t help, let alone staying alive.”
“I told you not to swear!”
“Only by saying the swear words out loud can you keep your mouth clean. If you swallow them, your heart gets dirty.”
By the time Xia Rutu and Zhao Xingyue finished chatting, she had reached the cave entrance. She was down to her last shred of strength and collapsed on the final step at the entrance.
As Xia Rutu fell, she saw the densely packed crowd standing outside the cave. She gave a helpless smile. They were hopelessly outnumbered. No matter how many tricks she had up her sleeve, none would help.
Xia Rutu lay on the ground with only a few drops of health left when a flash of green light passed over her, restoring a little health. But because she had been poisoned, her health quickly bottomed out again. Then beams of green light rained down on her from above.
At that moment, a white-robed young master stepped out of the crowd. It was none other than Feng Buyu, leader of the Brahma Sound Pavilion.
