Is there any hope for me, who proposed to the world-destroying empress at the very beginning?

Even though it was still quite far away, all the ferocious beasts below were well aware of its anger.

Immediately following, a questioning voice fell from the sky above the forbidden zone of Yunmeng Great Swamp.

What do you want to borrow?

"Your Phoenix Feathers".

"Humans, give me a reason!"

Ning Zhexian looked up at where the phoenix was, but did not answer, only gave a self-deprecating smile.

Whether she, Ning Zhexian, wants it or not makes no difference!

Immediately following behind, Ning Zhexian's figure soared into the sky, actively approaching the phoenix's body.

No one expected that this audacious human would dare to launch the first attack!

The two figures collided in mid-air.

In an instant, the void trembled, and a series of explosions reverberated for miles around. Countless ferocious beasts fled in panic, and those who could not escape were instantly reduced to dust.

In a short moment, the air trembled continuously, with dense explosions echoing endlessly, mixed with two domineering energies: ice and fire.

In their very first encounter, Phoenix Splendor, the master of the penalty area, was injured and defeated.

In just a few exchanges, Ning Zhexian struck the phoenix's body down to earth, sending it crashing into the forest.

In Ning Zhexian's hand, a phoenix feather was silently grasped.

However, a trace of blood also oozed from the corner of her mouth.

Although the exchange was brief, only those who fought it know the dangers involved.

But in the end, I won...

"Boom!"

Just as Ning Zhexian's thoughts began to wander, unexpectedly, a streak of crimson light suddenly shot out from the ancient forest below.

"Pfft!"

This time, even though Ning Zhexian tried her best to defend, she had already exhausted most of her strength and could not stop the phoenix's life-burning killing move.

As blood blossoms fell, Ning Zhexian froze, then plummeted from the sky.

In the woods.

After unleashing this move, the phoenix seemed to lose some of its brilliance, appearing listless and dispirited.

But it still quickly approached the location where Ning Zhexian had landed. It was true that it was injured, but the woman's injuries were no less serious.

pity.

Even though the phoenix arrived at top speed, it still couldn't find Ning Zhexian again.

The human woman who stole her phoenix feathers vanished from her sight as if she had evaporated into thin air.

The phoenix let out another angry roar of resentment, shocking and terrifying all the beasts.

Upon receiving its command, they began searching the forest, determined to find Ning Zhexian's whereabouts as soon as possible.

It is located far on the edge.

As Su Liang gazed at the terrifying scene deep within the Yunmeng Great Swamp, which resembled an earthquake, and the countless roars of strange beasts, he couldn't help but feel a sense of foreboding.

However, considering that he had entered this place to train and enhance his strength, Su Liang naturally had no reason to turn back.

but!

At that moment, the Cloud Marsh Fire in front of Su Liang suddenly floated up, its faint light instantly enveloping Su Liang's path.

Before he could react, his figure disappeared from the edge of the Yunmeng Great Swamp.

Once consciousness returned...

Before him stood rows of ancient trees, their desolate and ancient atmosphere filling the surroundings. He found himself in the deepest part of the Yunmeng Marsh!

"What am I doing...?"

Su Liang looked at the strange atmosphere with a puzzled expression, and then the system's voice sounded in his ear.

"Host, you're really in for a world of trouble now, you've been taken straight into the forbidden zone."

"My luck is just so bad..."

Before he could finish speaking, Su Liang curled his lip.

"Come on, what good would it do you if I died?"

“到

What exactly happened?

"It's probably a trial triggered by the Yunze Earth Fire, which is why they brought you in specifically."

"Enough with the small talk, let me remind you—"

"With your strength, you shouldn't underestimate any of the ferocious beasts here. You could die at any moment, and if you're unlucky... hehe!"

After the system finished speaking, it casually issued a task.

The system panel appeared before Su Liang's eyes, and the subtitles gradually became clearer.

[Triggered the dungeon quest - Tame the Cloudfire.]

[Accept the quest; upon completion, you will receive the protection of the Yunmeng Great Swamp.]

[Mission abandoned, no reward.]

Su Liang glanced at the Cloud Marsh Fire floating in front of him, and without much thought, decisively chose to accept the mission.

Just as Su Liang put away the Cloud Marsh Earth Fire, he sensed a strange aura approaching.

At the same time, a strong smell of blood wafted towards him. Su Liang initially thought it was the smell of some ferocious beast's blood in the forest, but after a closer sniff, he quickly realized that it smelled like human blood.

A terrifying thought immediately arose in his mind: the strange beasts he had seen earlier were not fighting among the beasts in the forest, but because someone had trespassed into the forbidden area of ​​the Yunmeng Great Swamp.

Moreover, they must have done something significant that could alarm the entire Yunmeng Great Swamp Forbidden Zone and all the strange beasts.

Just as Su Liang's various suspicions had come to an end and he was about to head deeper into the Yunmeng Great Swamp, a figure appeared before him.

Su Liang followed the sound and saw a woman walking unsteadily towards him, coldly looking in his direction.

The woman was breathing rapidly, and her body was trembling slightly.

Her arm rested on the tree trunk beside her, and drops of blood flowed down her lips, which were as beautiful as flower petals, until they disappeared into her snow-white skin.

The woman's hair was covered in beads of sweat, which clung to her temples.

Her eyes were cold, yet somehow they stirred a strange flutter in people's hearts.

The elegant and well-fitting long dress looked like it had been torn. At this moment, the gorgeous dress could only barely cover her figure, but the effect... was indescribable.

Chapter 74 You've already torn my clothes, and you're still talking about other things?

First, the hem of her skirt was torn in half, making her already long and fair legs even more alluring.

Even when curled up, her skin remains straight and fair.

Any decent person in the world who sees this would probably not mind playing with it for a whole year.

Look upwards.

The buttons on the front of the garment were torn, and the fabric in front of the chest was faintly stained with blood, revealing a plain white undergarment underneath.

It's not just that touch of white; is it the color of the mountain peaks or the color of the hem of a garment?

As a gentle breeze blew, the woman's already sweaty body trembled even more, and her lips, which should have been crimson, appeared even paler.

She looked at Su Liang, who had suddenly appeared before her, and realized her loss of composure. A blush rose to her cheeks, but the coldness in her eyes never melted away.

It looked like they were about to kill someone!

Unfortunately, she didn't even have the strength to speak, having already exhausted all her remaining means just to stop the injury.

Even if the boy in front of her did something to her, she could only silently endure it.

Damn it!

On the other end, Su Liang was unaware of the cold glint in his eyes.

His gaze was briefly drawn to the beautiful scenery before him before he focused on the other person's injuries.

It's very serious, almost fatal!

If she doesn't receive timely treatment, she will surely perish.

What puzzled him even more was why there would be a human presence in such a restricted area.

Who is she? Why was she injured?

Despite having countless questions, Su Liang did not hesitate in his injured movements. He quickly walked to the woman and placed his hand on her wrist.

After a brief examination, Su Liang had no doubts. He put one arm around her smooth back and the other on her soft thigh, and pulled her into his arms.

"Kid, aren't you being a little too kind?"

"What if this woman is a ferocious beast in disguise, or has malicious intentions towards you..."

"Anyway, I still have you."

"..."

A short while later.

After leaving the system speechless with its rebuttal, Su Liang observed the surrounding area for a while before finally choosing a relatively safe location.

The most urgent task now is to treat the woman's injuries as soon as possible, and also to avoid encountering the ferocious beasts in this area.

Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable!

Fortunately, after the previous misfortune, Su Liang was lucky and did not encounter any enemies along the way.

Not long after, he found a place to settle down temporarily.

"excuse me."

Meeting Ning Zhexian's humiliated and indignant gaze, Su Liang took the initiative to treat the wound on her chest.
