Chapter 682 Web
Guan Jiechen was about to say something when he suddenly sensed an energy fluctuation coming from above his head.
His expression changed drastically. He didn't have time to look up or pay attention to Sun Yuxin's stubbornness. The sense of danger made him grab her and fly away to the side.
But we were still a step too late.
The energy fluctuations above their heads suddenly condensed, and countless lines rapidly appeared and intertwined.
Almost in the blink of an eye, a woven net large enough to cover them was fully formed and quickly draped down over them.
At this moment, Guan Jiechen and Sun Yuxin were only one meter away from completely escaping the woven net.
This seemingly ordinary short meter now appears to the two of them as an insurmountable chasm.
With a woven net covered over their heads, smothering the two figures, who had been hidden, they were instantly forced to reveal themselves.
"Ah—!" Sun Yuxin screamed in disgust as she touched the slippery, sticky fluid on her body.
Before Guan Jiechen could comfort them, the woven net covering the two suddenly tightened, binding them tightly together.
Jiang Ci, who had already fought his way out, heard the panicked scream and turned around to see Sun Yuxin and the other person firmly trapped in the net.
His movement of wielding the ice sword to strike suddenly stopped, and his brows furrowed slightly.
Given the speed of the hovering shoes, Guan Jiechen and Sun Yuxin should have already escaped far away by now.
The enemy, who had been cornered by Jiang Ci and thought he was about to be struck by a sword, keenly sensed that he was a beat too slow and immediately flew backward without hesitation: he was going to escape!
Jiang Ci snapped back to his senses, his cold gaze sweeping over the fleeing enemy, but then his eyes passed over the enemy and landed on Bai Mianmian, who was a hundred meters away.
If this person had chosen a different direction to retreat, Jiang Ci might not have attacked him again, but he just happened to choose this direction.
If we let him continue to retreat, wouldn't he take action if he encountered Mianmian?
Jiang Ci didn't want to gamble on this possibility, so...
"Whoosh!" The ice sword suddenly rose into the air, and two of the several ice needles that had condensed around Jiang Ci shot out towards that person.
"Whoosh!" As the sound of something cutting through the air reached the man's ears, two ice needles were already close to the back of his head and his heart, respectively.
Seemingly sensing that death was imminent, terror instantly filled the man's face, and in that instant, the ice needle pierced his body without any resistance.
Watching the corpse plummet into the ground, Jiang Ci's gaze passed over it and landed on Bai Mianmian.
The moment their eyes met, Bai Mianmian looked at him with her eyebrows curved, while she was still crunching on sunflower seeds, looking completely relaxed.
They showed absolutely no sign of being affected by the bloody scenes before them.
A hint of tenderness appeared in Jiang Ci's eyes. He nodded slightly, then turned and rushed toward Guan Jiechen and the other man who were struggling to break free from the woven net.
As Jiang Ci approached Guan Jiechen and the other man, three other people had already closed in to within fifty meters of them on the other side.
After struggling for a long time without making any progress, Guan Jiechen saw that the three were about to pounce on him and subconsciously tried to create distance.
The next second, the hovering shoes, still in operation, instantly carried him and Sun Yuxin away from the three people and moved closer to Jiang Ci.
This unexpected discovery delighted Guan Jiechen, but before his joy could spread, he suddenly felt an energy fluctuation beneath his feet.
Countless lines rapidly wove into a net, instantly entangling Guan Jiechen's levitation shoes.
Almost the instant the viscous woven net tightly wrapped around the shoe, the levitation shoe's operation came to a complete stop.
Sun Yuxin's levitation shoes suffered the same fate.
The two suddenly lost the support of the levitation shoes and plummeted straight down from the air.
"Ah—!" The sudden feeling of weightlessness caused Sun Yuxin's scream to rise a decibel. Jiang Ci coldly glanced at the two of them, choosing not to immediately go to pick them up, but instead immediately swung his sword and charged straight at the three people chasing Guan Jiechen and Sun Yuxin.
"Jiang Ci! Help me—!" Sun Yuxin screamed with her eyes tightly closed.
Just then, a figure suddenly rushed towards the two from the side.
With blood still dripping from the corner of his mouth, Bao Zhiyuan reached out and grabbed Guan Jiechen and Sun Yuxin, who were falling, and held them tightly. However, he was also pulled down by their weight.
Fortunately, he reacted very quickly, instantly maximizing the power of his hovering shoes, and managed to stabilize himself when he was only five meters away from the ground.
"Phew~" Guan Jiechen breathed a sigh of relief.
When he was falling, he tried several times to adjust his position, intending to use his body as a cushion for Sun Yuxin, but he failed each time. Fortunately, Bao Zhiyuan arrived in time.
"Jiang Ci." The feeling of weightlessness was gone, and her back was pressed tightly against a broad chest. Sun Yuxin couldn't help but feel a surge of joy and turned her head to look back.
But when she saw that it was Bao Zhiyuan behind her, the surprise on her face vanished instantly.
When Bao Zhiyuan heard her blurt out "Jiang Ci" and saw the joy on her face vanish instantly, his expression darkened.
Before he could say anything, more people approached the three of them.
Left with no other choice, Bao Zhiyuan could only lead the two men toward the team members.
"Crunch—" Bai Mianmian, who was happily eating sunflower seeds, suddenly stopped.
A sharp glint flashed in her eyes, which had been curved in a gentle smile as she gazed in Jiang Ci's direction.
Suddenly, her figure blurred, transforming into a blur as she swiftly darted to the side.
The two people eating sunflower seeds next to her had just noticed her leaving when they turned around and saw a strange man suddenly appear, his right hand still in a grabbing position.
If Bai Mianmian hadn't left, the man would be grabbing her arm right now.
The two people who were eating sunflower seeds immediately abandoned their efforts to collect the seeds and launched an attack on the stranger.
Unfortunately, just as their attacks were about to land on the man, he vanished from his spot in an instant.
Bai Mianmian, who stopped five meters away, watched the man disappear, her eyes narrowed, and she immediately realized that it was a teleportation ability.
"Whoosh!" Just then, a sound of something cutting through the air suddenly approached.
Bai Mianmian glanced in that direction lightly, her body remaining still, but her fingers twitched slightly at that moment.
Several red-capped, white-dot mushrooms suddenly sprouted in the air, directly intercepting the black cannonball that was approaching the white, fluffy creature at extremely high speed.
The moment the mushroom grew, the black cannonball approached and exploded first, "Boom!"
"Boom—" Just as the shell exploded, all the mushrooms also exploded at the same time.
The familiar explosion suddenly rang out, and Jiang Ci, who was fighting the enemy, suddenly turned his head and saw that Bai Mianmian was no longer in the same place. At this moment, the impact of the explosive energy rose up behind her.
Jiang Ci's eyes flashed with killing intent. He suddenly spun his longsword and killed the enemy who was trying to escape with one strike. Then he turned and rushed towards Bai Mianmian's direction.
Returning to the moment the black shell exploded, a large black net suddenly opened from the center of the explosion, covering the area ahead.
Unfortunately, the mushroom's explosive force instantly blasted it to pieces.
It was reduced to dust before it even got close to Bai Mianmian.
Suddenly, Bai Mianmian turned her head to look to the side as if she had sensed something.
