Nine Star Hegemon Body Arts

Chapter 5107 Helping in Crisis

Within the chaotic battle, Feng You and Hu Xiaoyu were fighting alongside a group of experts against the devil creatures. But all of a sudden, they heard the cat woman’s sharp screeching coming from behind them. “Feng You, you little slut, if you don’t want to die, charge forward and create an opening for us! Otherwise, we’ll kill you first!”

Hundreds of thousands of experts were fighting endless waves of devil creatures. While these experts had formed a solid defense everywhere else, Feng You and Hu Xiaoyu’s area was extremely weak. No one was there to support them.

Naturally, the devil creatures saw their location as a vulnerable point and attacked with relentless ferocity. Feng You and Hu Xiaoyu were doing their best to fight back but were gradually being pushed back.

“What terrible luck. We clearly entered with big sister Bai Yingxue, so how did we end up transported here? We even have to deal with these idiots,” Hu Xiaoyu complained, her fury evident as she battled the devil creatures.

Feng You and Hu Xiaoyu had entered the spatial gate with the white dragon race, but once they arrived in the Heavenly Flame Devil Domain, they discovered that they were separated from the white dragon race.

In other words, the order and timing of the transportation did not affect the transportation location. The locations where the various races were transported were determined by their status plates.

In theory, since Long Chen was holding a tablet of the white dragon race, he should have been transported to the same place as Bai Yingxue and the others. However, when Long Chen entered the spatial gate, the pressure of a Human Emperor attacking him affected the transportation process, resulting in a deviation.

Feng You and Hu Xiaoyu had barely gotten a look at their surroundings when they encountered the mixed beast race. As soon as both sides saw each other, the atmosphere turned cold. While Feng You was only a half-step Heavenly Chosen, with the phoenix marrow’s power, she was not afraid of the mixed beast race’s experts. However, the other races’ experts quickly surrounded them, questioning them about Long Chen’s whereabouts. In their eyes, Feng You and Hu Xiaoyu were Long Chen’s companions.

Only then did Feng You and Hu Xiaoyu learn that Long Chen had exposed his status just before entering the Heavenly Flame Devil Domain. He had even slapped a Human Emperor, and there was now a large bounty for his head.

Naturally, the two of them didn’t know where Long Chen was. But then, they wouldn’t reveal his whereabouts even if they knew. Both sides grew tense, with hostilities rising.

Feng You could break free of their encirclement. After all, with the phoenix marrow’s power, if she wanted to leave, these people wouldn’t be able to stop her. However, she couldn’t abandon Hu Xiaoyu. Since the treasures Long Chen had bought for Hu Xiaoyu required her to reach the Eternal realm to merge with them, her power hadn’t risen significantly during this time.

If they were to forcibly break through, Hu Xiaoyu wouldn’t be able to follow her. As a result, they continued facing off with these people, waiting for an opportunity to escape.

However, what awaited them was more experts and countless devil creatures. With the devil creatures attacking, those experts couldn’t force Long Chen’s whereabouts out of the two. They had to fend off the devil creatures first. Because of their slow reaction, the devil creatures swarmed over them from all directions, leaving no room for escape.

In just a few waves of attacks, the experts suffered numerous casualties, forcing them to switch to defense and pull back. At this moment, the cat woman cursed Feng You and Hu Xiaoyu as the bringers of bad luck, turning everyone’s anger toward them. The experts decided to attack the two and conduct a soulsearch to find Long Chen’s whereabouts.

Claiming they couldn’t afford to be dragged down by such powerful enemies, they forced Feng You and Hu Xiaoyu to take on the main role of breaking free of the encirclement. To put it frankly, the two of them were coerced to sacrifice themselves.

Hu Xiaoyu was so furious that she was about to turn on them, but Feng You stopped her. Gritting her teeth, she joined forces with these experts to fight the devil creatures, enduring the greatest pressure.

“Big sister, you should leave. With your power, you have a high chance of breaking free. So, you should charge out. Even if I have to die, I’ll drag that bitch down with me,” said Hu Xiaoyu, her voice tinged with hatred.

Hu Xiaoyu and Feng You were as close as sisters, so she knew exactly what Feng You was thinking. She didn’t want Feng You to die here because of her.

Shaking her head, Feng You answered, “Don’t be rash. We can still endure. Once we can’t handle it anymore, it won’t be too late to kill them.”

Despite the danger, Feng You remained calm. The closer they got to death, the clearer her mind became. For some reason, Long Chen’s figure appeared in her mind. Only Long Chen had ever made her feel such reverence.

She recalled Long Chen’s words: “Fighting with your life on the line is the greatest form of cultivation. A true expert is someone who can remain calm and judge the situation clearly while facing the immense pressure of death head-on!”

She finally understood the essence of Long Chen’s words. Only someone unafraid of death could remain cool under this pressure and grasp that slight chance of survival in crisis.

If there was no opportunity, they could only endure. A chance might not appear, but they had to be ready if it did appear. Otherwise, even if such an opportunity showed up, they wouldn’t be able to grasp it.

Feng You was far calmer than Hu Xiaoyu right now. She ignored the cat woman’s curses, knowing that anger was meaningless.

“But big sister, we’re enduring the most pressure and are using more energy than anyone else. If we wait too long, you’re going to lose your chance to break free,” whispered Hu Xiaoyu.

Feng You still had plenty of energy to break free. But as time passed, that chance would shrink.

“It’s fine. In that case, we’ll both die. If we are together on the path to the yellow springs, we won’t be lonely,” declared Feng You, smiling at Hu Xiaoyu.

Hu Xiaoyu cried in silence, knowing that Feng You would never abandon her. She was deeply moved, yet seethed with fury. Hearing the cat woman’s curses from behind, she was consumed with bitterness and wanted to kill her on the spot.

More and more devil creatures appeared, growing stronger with each wave. Their defensive zone was constantly shrinking. Despite this, Feng You calmly smiled. She recognized that their situation was hopeless but felt neither fear nor anxiety.

Her only regret was that she had just obtained the phoenix marrow and glimpsed her rise to power, only to face death now. She felt as though the heavens were toying with her.

Just then, space quivered, and an arrogant voice echoed throughout heaven and earth. “When Boss Long San descends, who dares not to kowtow?!”
