Chapter 36 Sudden attack, Hu Liena’s misunderstanding
In the forest, Ye Zhiqiu's figure flashed quickly. In the blink of an eye, he stepped on the dead wood on the ground and jumped up to the thick trunk of a towering ancient tree.
"Ye Xiu, stop! Damn it, you can run so fast!"
Hu Liena followed behind Ye Zhiqiu. Even though she ran at full speed, she still couldn't catch up with Ye Zhiqiu, so she kept yelling.
"You are faster than me, and you lied to me that you were only level 23. I had to take off your mask! The demon fox is possessed!"
Hu Liena's speed did not slow down, and she summoned a demon fox to possess her. A big fluffy tail appeared behind her, and a light red light appeared on her body.
She jumped into the air, turned around in the air, her eyes flickered, and there was a faint smile on her face, but her speed suddenly increased.
Hu Liena's speed suddenly increased, and the distance between her and Ye Zhiqiu decreased sharply. In just a few breaths, she was already behind Ye Zhiqiu.
Hu Liena smiled confidently, moved softly, and placed her soft palm on Ye Zhiqiu's left shoulder, pulling Ye Zhiqiu's shoulder hard.
Ye Zhiqiu felt force on his shoulders and his body turned sideways. Due to inertia, his body fell to the ground in front of him in mid-air.
In fact, Ye Zhiqiu's speed was not weaker than Hu Liena's at all. The increase of two thousand-year soul rings was enough to make up for the gap in soul power, but he did not show it. One-sided crushing was boring, and evenly matched was interesting.
"Charming!"
Hu Liena became more playful. She looked directly into Ye Zhiqiu's eyes, her eyes rippling, using the charm she had practiced since she was a child.
Ye Zhiqiu's mind was lost in an instant, Hu Liena's charming face was deeply imprinted in his mind, and he could not get rid of it.
If it were a duel, Ye Zhiqiu would definitely not be charmed if he was mentally prepared, but at this time, Ye Zhiqiu was willing to be charmed by Hu Liena.
Originally, even if Ye Zhiqiu's movement was blocked, he could calmly adjust his body shape and land smoothly, but the sudden loss of concentration, even for a short time, was too late to deal with it when he came back to his senses.
When Ye Zhiqiu was about to fall, Hu Liena realized that something was wrong. Ye Zhiqiu, whose body was falling, could not resist her charm.
In a hurry, Hu Liena wanted to reach out and grab Ye Zhiqiu's sleeve, but accidentally held Ye Zhiqiu's hand.
Hu Liena didn't care too much and pulled hard. Ye Zhiqiu's body pressed directly against hers, and the two of them fell to the ground in an extremely ambiguous posture.
Whether intentionally or unintentionally, Ye Zhiqiu's hands wrapped around Hu Liena's tender waist at some point during the fall.
This was the first time Hu Liena encountered such an ambiguous situation. Although she had practiced charm since she was a child, no man had ever been able to get close to her body. Ye Zhiqiu was the first.
Hu Liena's pretty face turned red, feeling embarrassed and annoyed. Although she had a slight affection for Ye Zhiqiu, she was far from being so close to him.
"Hurry up and let go!" Hu Liena shouted suddenly. Even so, she did not wait for Ye Zhiqiu to let go. Instead, she pushed Ye Zhiqiu's chest hard and pushed him away.
Ye Zhiqiu hurriedly started to move, and hurriedly took a few steps back to stabilize his figure. The next moment, Ye Zhiqiu's pupils suddenly shrank, as if he had seen something extraordinary, and then he quickly rushed towards Hu Liena.
"How dare you..."
Ye Zhiqiu was wearing a mask, so Hu Liena could not see the change in his expression. It was almost impossible to find clues from the sharply shrinking pupils. In her panic, she only thought that Ye Zhiqiu had seen the color and wanted to do something wrong to her.
Hu Liena couldn't help but feel angry. The goodwill she had just accumulated was instantly gone. Before she could finish her words, she raised her palm and struck Ye Zhiqiu with all her strength at Ye Zhiqiu, who was rushing toward her.
Ye Zhiqiu did not dodge, and just took Hu Liena's full palm. Blood instantly flowed out of his mouth, but Ye Zhiqiu still forced Hu Liena to knock down.
"Ye Xiu, you are crazy!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a ball of jet-black liquid flew over the two of them at high speed. Hu Liena was facing up, just in time to catch it in her eyes.
Only then did Hu Liena realize that something was wrong. She was pressed down by Ye Zhiqiu and could only look up to where the black liquid was flying.
It happened that a thick ancient tree blocked the way. The liquid immediately splashed out after hitting the ancient tree, quickly corroding the contaminated objects.
The place where the ancient wood collided with the liquid was even more terrible. A fist-sized hole remained there, and it was rapidly expanding as the liquid corroded.
This is not just a ball of ordinary liquid, it is clearly a highly corrosive venom!
If Ye Zhiqiu hadn't knocked her down, the venom would have hit the back of her head, and the consequences would have been unimaginable.
Only then did Hu Liena realize that she had misunderstood Ye Zhiqiu. She recalled the scene where Ye Zhiqiu would rather forcibly slap her with his chest than save her, and she suddenly felt ashamed.
This was not the time to be pretentious, so she quickly helped Ye Zhiqiu up, and at the same time quickly turned her head to look behind her, looking for the source of the venom.
On a dead tree lying on the ground not far away, a black scorpion was raising its tail stinger towards the two of them.
It turned out that the two of them accidentally entered the prey range of this poisonous sting-tailed scorpion during the chase.
"The sting-tailed scorpion! The stinger has five segments. This is a sting-tailed scorpion that is 5000 years old!"
The stinger-tailed scorpion is good at hiding. It often hides in places where it is difficult to find and shoots venom from its tail stinger to attack the target unexpectedly. After the target dies, it can go over and eat the corroded corpse.
The poisonous stinging scorpion is extremely difficult to deal with. The 5000-year-old poisonous stinging scorpion is already shockingly toxic. Hu Liena's current strength is not enough to deal with it.
Hu Liena's expression changed with shock. She didn't care about anything else. She picked up Ye Zhiqiu, who had been hit by her palm, and ran away quickly.
Hu Liena's body is slender, but she contains unimaginable strength. She has no difficulty in picking up Ye Zhiqiu, who is taller and stronger than her. However, this scene always feels very incongruous.
Sting-tailed scorpions generally only look for prey in a selected area and will not chase their prey if it escapes.
But to be on the safe side, to prevent the 5000-year-old sting-tailed scorpions from taking an unusual path and leaving their hunting range, and to prevent them from straying into the territory of other older soul beasts, Hu Liena ran all the way to the outskirts of the Soul Hunting Forest before stopping.
At this time, Hu Liena was covered in sweat. She did not dare to stop at all during the escape process. She used her soul power to the extreme and ran at full speed. Her breath was already disordered and she was panting from exhaustion.
The first thing Hu Liena did after stopping was to gently place Ye Zhiqiu on the ground.
But... I can't let it go!
Hu Liena had no time to pay attention to Ye Zhiqiu's situation just now because she was just running away for her life. It was only now that she had the chance to take a look.
At this time, Ye Zhiqiu was hugging her neck tightly and staring straight at her face. From such a close distance, Hu Liena could clearly see the obsession in Ye Zhiqiu's eyes.
