Chapter 1452 Repaying kindness with ingrat.i.tude
An alchemist was too slow to flee and b.u.t.ted by a ferocious beast coming close behind him. The person flew into midair screaming. When he fell down, the man was stomped under the beasts’ hooves.
“Hiss!”
Looking back at this scene, Chen Dao and others at the front were dazed and drew their breaths sharply. However, they didn’t dare to slow down even a bit. “Run quickly! Hurry up! Escape on your flying sword!”
Seeing a great number of beasts rushed behind them, they jumped onto their flying swords and prepared to flee on the swords . However, due to the tangle of trees in the forest and the alt.i.tude restriction, they could only fly at limited height. In such a situation, dodging the trees while fleeing quickly, had taken a toll on those alchemists’ emotional state.
“Arghhhhh!”
A cry of alarm was heard. An alchemist on a flying sword crashed into a big tree and the man fell to the ground, trying frantically to escape while crying out. “Help me! Help me!”
The other people were too busy running away and couldn’t give him a helping hand. They just looked downwards in horror and abandoned him.
Chen Dao clenched his teeth when he saw it and turned around, sweeping towards that man.
“Senior Brother Chen, you’ll die!” Luo Heng shouted loudly. He felt incomprehensible seeing Chen Dao turned back to save that person.
“You leave first!” Chen Dao didn’t look back. He turned his flying sword back, reached out a hand to pull the alchemist who had fallen to the ground and was too frightened to stand up. “Get up!”
The alchemist was so frightened that his face turned pale. His body was shaking. Due to an extreme fear, he tried to stand upright on both feet but he could not stand. Even, after Chen Dao pulled him up to stand on the flying sword, the man fell down again.
“Stand up quickly! Hurry up!” Chen Dao shouted, pulling the man up one more time.
Seeing this scene, Luo Heng struggled inwardly and gritted his teeth. “If I die, I’ll die!” He also turned back, took out the sword, injected his spirit energy breath into it, and attacked the ferocious beasts, trying to buy more time for Chen Dao to save the man.
Shortly after that, Chen Dao finally took that alchemist on his flying sword and called out to Lou Heng immediately. “Leave quickly!”
So, the two caught up quickly with the people in front on flying swords. Behind Chen Dao stood the alchemist he had rescued earlier. However, the beast tide was not just limited to ferocious beasts running on the ground. There were also some ferocious beasts and spirit beasts appearing mid-air, as if something was chasing them.
“Be careful! It’s the scarlet-beaked blood eagle!”
Chen Dao looked at a group of scarlet-beaked blood eagles in front of him, trying to slow down and avoid them. Unexpectedly, a single scarlet-beaked blood eagle came up from behind and attacked them.
Luo Heng cried out and dodged the eagle quickly. While Chen Dao was about to avoid the bird, suddenly he sensed someone holding his robe behind him and pus.h.i.+ng him toward the scarlet-beaked blood eagle.
“Ah! Don’t come to me! I don’t want to die yet!”
The alchemist rescued by Chen Dao did not fight or face the crisis with Chen Dao at the critical moment, but pushed him out…
