Wedding Night: I Am Forced To Marry A Dragon Girl

The two nodded in Jiang Xiaobai’s direction, as if encouraging him to take action.

Seeing this, Jiang Xiaobai could only exclaim in frustration, while simultaneously summoning Yuǎn Hóng in his hand and taking a mighty swipe with it!

The speed of this strike was astonishing, and the power it exuded terrifying, lighting up the entire blue passage with a celestial starlight gleam.

The blade swept across, easily shattering a group of skeleton warriors to pieces scattering them all over the ground.

However, Jiang Xiaobai didn’t intend to stop there. He once again swung Yuǎn Hóng, and along with the explosion of sword light, he charged forward, striking directly onto a skull.

Crack!

The skull shattered on cue, decomposing into fragments right there, marking the complete annihilation of the bone.

As expected, the skeleton warriors continued to reform, and Jiang Xiaobai was aware that his Yuǎn Hóng had enough power to deal with them.

He didn’t bother about using any special swordfighting techniques, rather he dashed headlong into the scattered skeleton warriors, slaughtering crazily, leaving a mess of bone fragments around him.

“Okay, let’s keep moving.”

Immediately after he finished dealing with them, Gu Ning moved forward as if nothing had happened earlier.

Jiang Xiaobai: “%￥@#%#%!”

Continuing ahead, they had encountered numerous troubles in just one day.

They had to deal with puppet blockades, monstrous ambushes, situations involving flanking attacks from both sides, and they even ran into an array!

In situations requiring brute force, Jiang Xiaobai singlehandedly handled everything, while Gu Ning took charge when it came to the array.

With her uniquely sharp eyes, Gu Ning was able to locate the array’s eye in an instant and dismantle it swiftly.

As such, Gu Ning and Baihe were having it easy while Jiang Xiaobai was as tired as a dog.

He had already used up half of his lower-grade celestial stone, and he figured that if he continued at this pace, he would have absolutely no chance to replenish his spirit power.

Thankfully, the system was unusually considerate and announced that Jiang Xiaobai could completely rejuvenate his spirit power at a cost of 10,000 points!

However, this only applied to his spirit power. If it included healing his injuries, it would cost him 50,000 points!

Jiang Xiaobai, relieved at the announcement, realized that everything would be okay as long as his spirit power was abundant.

Time passed, and two days later, Jiang Xiaobai started spotting bodies of other cultivators scattered around here and there.

Among them, he spotted the corpse of an elf!

It wasn’t Qiongyu, but a male elf. It was clear that something horrendous had happened to them. The man was nothing more than a skeleton, other than his head. All of his flesh and blood had completely vanished. The sight of it was eerie enough to send chills down one’s spine.

“Hehehe, the little elf girl you are smitten with is here too. Are you up for a heroic rescue?” Gu Ning teased.

Jiang Xiaobai simply rolled his eyes and didn’t respond. He thought it would be better to decide what to do when the time came.

Another day passed, and right when Jiang Xiaobai was feeling numb after shattering the last skeleton soldier with a blow, the ground suddenly started shaking.

Following that, a roar echoed in his ears, sounding very similar to the one from the giant ape from earlier!

He looked at Gu Ning hurriedly, who nodded at him: “Looks like the difficulty just increased again. If it gets tougher above, it will certainly get tougher below.”

“What?’

Jiang Xiaobai was flabbergasted: “There’s only one route here. In case of trouble, it’s either fight or die, isn’t it?”

“Indeed, there’s only one route. So, you will have to bear the brunt of it, disciple.”

“Go for it, you can do it!”

Gu Ning was treating Jiang Xiaobai like a child, which caused his mouth to twitch uncontrollably while he became more vigilant.

He kept his eyes fixed on the path ahead, all the while being aware of what was going on behind him.

With only one passage, danger was ever-present. After waiting quietly for around five to six minutes, a string of desperate screams came from ahead.

The ground was shaking!

Then, through the blue passage, he faintly saw about ten people charging in his direction.

Chasing behind them was a giant ape, brandishing a huge hammer and roaring while hunting them down.

Looking at this situation, Jiang Xiaobai was literally feeling goosebumps. The danger level was simply too high!

However, Jiang Xiaobai had no intention of running away. He knew that running away would be pointless!

The whole place was just a single straight passage. Where could he escape to?

Especially when he could always face danger from the rear even if he ran back. Wouldn’t that be a possibility?

When he had first arrived here, just by looking at the rear, Jiang Xiaobai would feel goosebumps, as if some terrifying creature was lurking there.

To put it simply, choosing to face the fight rather than fleeing offered a possibility to survive. If he chose to run, it would lead him to a dead-end!

“Stop running! Continuing to run would only lead to certain death. Let’s join hands and kill this beast!” Jiang Xiaobai yelled, hoping to rally the fleeing group to take down the creature together.

At this, the person leading the pack shouted in reply.

“Get out of my way!”

After yelling out, he slashed a sword at Jiang Xiaobai, who grunted coldly in response and blocked the sword.

He got a good look at the guy: he was handsome and had pointed ears.

An elf!

The young elf had clearly not expected Jiang Xiaobai to block his attack so easily, which left him stunned for a moment. Then he quickly recovered and launched another attack.

This time, Jiang Xiaobai felt threatened. He didn’t dare to take the attack lightly and blocked it with all his might.

As a result of their engagement, the fleeing party of elves was delayed, giving time for the giant ape to close in.

Qiongyu was among the crowd, still maintaining her equanimity. After glancing at Jiang Xiaobai, she called out.

“Everyone, halt! He is right. Our only chance of survival is to kill this beast.”

“Prepare for an all-out attack!”

At her command, all elves halted and, as if in a synchronized manner, turned around to face the approaching beast.

Even the one who had been fighting Jiang Xiaobai refrained from further aggression, turned around, and prepared for the combat.

The operative move of the team surprised Jiang Xiaobai; the elves appeared to be executing a coordinated attack. Their combined power materialized into a strange long knife.

The long knife was aimed directly at the skull of the giant ape, striking it fiercely!

However, the giant ape showed no fear. It raised his hand and smashed the knife, reducing it into fragments that scattered all over the place.

The elves were undeterred and continued their joint attack. Some even began circulating around the ape, preparing for a multi-pronged attack!

“Quick, quick, quick, the opportunity for a heroic rescue is here. Go for it, Xiaobai!”

At this time, Gu Ning, with a playful look on her face, gave Jiang Xiaobai a push.
