Chapter 206 A Safe Isolated Island - Mu Nu Jiao

Only Lan Xi and Qin Xiaonan were present and had the capacity to help Mu Tingying.

Neither of them intended to save her, leading to her death at the hands of the Commander-level Abyss Executioner.

Seeing the gruesome scene of Mu Tingying's death, a chilling feeling that went deep into the bones and a huge shadow of death gripped everyone's hearts.

The nerves are like a bowstring stretched to its limit, extremely taut!
In the distance, the siren leader was slowly approaching with an unparalleled aura.

Nearby, several Abyss Executioners of the Warrior rank and their minions, having caught the scent of blood, launched an even more frenzied and reckless attack!
With a swing of its pincers, corrosive water jets poured out.

No one dared to relax their guard in the slightest!
Every action was a matter of life and death.

They could be next at any moment! The shadow of death had never loomed so vividly over everyone, and the immense pressure was almost crushing them.

However, amidst this desperate storm of killing, there exists a safe "island"—Mu Nujiao.

She was also at the center of the battlefield, surrounded by vines and whistling wind blades, fighting fiercely.

But what is astonishing is that those ferocious and bloodthirsty sea monsters, whether servants, warriors, or even the abyssal executioners who command them, are all swarming with them.

As they approached her, they seemed to encounter some invisible taboo, abruptly stopping in their tracks!
Their murky compound eyes revealed an instinctive fear, and their massive bodies actively retreated to the sides, even going so far as to take a detour to attack other targets.

They created a relatively "safe" vacuum zone around her!

Even more incredibly, some sea monsters that control the seawater actually used their abilities to suppress the tides in the area where Mu Nujiao was located, as if they were clearing the battlefield for her and preventing her from being disturbed by the murky seawater!

This situation was naturally noticed by the other members of the National Team.

"Look over there, Mu Nujiao!" someone shouted. "The siren isn't attacking her."

Without much hesitation, the battered and bruised team members instinctively and with all their might moved toward the "safe zone" where Mu Nujiao was!
Mu Nujiao's gaze was fixed on the other side of the battlefield—Nan Jue and Jiang Shaoxu were being slowly driven into a desperate situation!

They were surrounded by several warrior-level abyssal executioners and a group of servant-level sea monsters. Nan Jue's shoulder wound was so deep that the bone was visible. Jiang Shaoxu's face was ashen, and blood kept spilling from the corner of her mouth. The Shadow Singer's low chanting brought her mental defenses to the brink of collapse!
"Hold on!" Mu Nu Jiao Qing shouted, her figure like a streak of emerald light, ignoring the sea monsters who ignored her or even avoided her along the way, and instantly cut into the encirclement!

Without hesitation, she stretched out her hands, one hand tightly grasping Nan Jue's wrist, which was covered in blood and cold sweat, and the other hand firmly holding Jiang Shaoxu's arm, which was trembling due to exhaustion of mental strength!

Right after she touched the two of them!
The Abyss Executioners, who were originally ferocious and ready to deliver a fatal blow to Nan Jue and Jiang Shaoxu, suddenly froze!

They glanced at Mu Nujiao.

The warrior-level sea monster let out a reluctant growl and retreated on its own! The servant-level sea monsters that had surrounded them scattered like a tide, letting out terrified screams, making way for their survival!
There is no other reason!

When the Atlantic Siren Legion first arrived, Qin Xiaonan gave the Silverwing Ant Queen an order that no siren was allowed to attack Mu Nujiao.

The plant-based primordial magic originating from the ancient Emerald Tree is the clearest and most unforgeable identifier for Mu Nujiao! These sea monsters, regardless of their level, can be clearly identified.

Therefore, once they sense this aura, they will take the initiative to retreat.

Nan Jue and Jiang Shaoxu felt the pressure on their bodies suddenly lighten! The feeling of exhaustion after surviving the ordeal instantly overwhelmed them, and they could barely stand. They only managed to stay upright thanks to Mu Nujiao's support.

Their gazes toward Mu Nujiao were filled with unbelievable gratitude and an indescribable complexity.

However, the respite brought by this "exemption" is a transfer of utter disaster for others!

These ferocious abyssal executioners and minions instantly unleashed all their brutality and killing intent upon their other targets!

"Roar—!" Their pincers, carrying a foul stench, lunged fiercely at Guan Yu and Li Kaifeng, who were already severely injured and slow to move!

Some others headed in the direction of Mu Ningxue and Nan Rongni.

Nan Rongni slumped there, her chest stained with blood. Her life-saving magical artifact was broken, and as a healer, she had completely lost any ability to resist or protect herself.

Mu Ningxue is now in an unprecedented predicament!
Four Abyss Executioners, all at the Warrior level, surrounded her, completely blocking all her escape routes!
"Ice Lock - Judgment!" Mu Ningxue's eyes turned icy cold as she forcefully channeled her magical energy. Several incredibly thick ice crystal chains, gleaming with an extreme chill, shot out like angry dragons from the sea, fiercely aiming at the vital joints of the two sea monsters!

However, the Abyss Executioner's pincers, covered with thick bone armor, were extremely sturdy!

Two of its enormous pincers, like the sharpest guillotine, precisely slit open!

“Crack! Crack! Crack!”

A crisp, ear-piercing snapping sound rang out!
Cut and shatter those ice crystal chains!
The immense recoil caused Mu Ningxue to grunt and stagger backward, a pallor appearing on her beautiful face.

She was surrounded by an icy aura as she single-handedly fought four Abyss Executioners of the Warrior-level!
Even with her vast knowledge, she felt overwhelmed.

Magic energy was being rapidly depleted, and stamina was being quickly depleted in the intense battle, while the enemy's offensive was like a relentless tsunami, with each wave stronger than the last.

Moreover, the siren's shell is incredibly sturdy, and with the help of seawater, it moves freely, making it very difficult for her to kill it.

At that moment, Mu Ningxue's breath caught in her throat for a split second.

In the distance, Ai Jiangtu's figure flew backward like a kite with a broken string.

The spatial barrier around him had long since shattered, and blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, staining his chest red.

The captain of the National Team, a high-level spatial mage, ultimately failed to completely subdue that terrifying commander-level sea monster.

Now, the enormous creature's gaze has been locked onto her.

Mu Ningxue's heart pounded violently, her blood throbbed in her ears, and the shadow of death had never been so clear.

She subconsciously took a step back.

Faced with an overwhelming power disparity, she was unable to remain calm.

However, at this moment——

A warm hand gently rested on her shoulder.

Normally, any unauthorized touch would chill Mu Ningxue to the bone, even freezing the other person's fingertips.

But at this moment, that hand seemed to carry a reassuring power.

A warm current spread from the point of contact, strangely dispelling the chill that was spreading through her body.

She suddenly turned around.

Qin Xiaonan had somehow appeared behind her.

His figure wasn't tall, but at that moment he seemed incredibly reliable.
