"Black Mountain Old Demon has arrived?"
Seeing such a heavenly phenomenon, Ji Ning's heart jolted. He quickly turned to Xiao Qian and instructed her, "Chun Cao, wait here. Don't run around."
Tree Demon Granny Shao Yannong was already extremely powerful, and even Fairy Chi Xia Yu Wei could only suppress him. Now that another "Black Mountain Old Demon" had appeared, even Ji Ning felt that he would have trouble handling this.
At a time like this, having only just recovered his strength, Ji Ning naturally could not stand by and watch Senior Sister Yu Wei be besieged by Tree Demon Granny and "Black Mountain Old Demon."
"Young Master... you aren't a scholar? You're this strong? And... who is Chun Cao?"
Xiao Qian was completely baffled and still had not recovered her senses.
"I'll tell you later!"
The situation was urgent. Ji Ning had no time to explain further to Xiao Qian. He grabbed her hand and soared into the air, rushing up to join Yu Wei.
"Senior Sister, Black Mountain Old Demon is here. We can't fight him head-on. Let's go!"
Flying to Yu Wei's side, Ji Ning waved his hand and drew the North Nether Sword. With one slash, he severed the surrounding vines and roots, then shouted to Yu Wei.
"Eh? Your strength..."
Seeing Ji Ning display such might, Fairy Chi Xia was startled. Could this person truly be her junior brother?
"Go!"
That so-called "Black Mountain Old Demon" had not even truly arrived yet, but merely the aura it leaked out was enough to make their hearts quail. Yu Wei made a swift decision, raised her escape light, and turned to flee.
Ji Ning, Xiao Qian, and Yu Wei flew at top speed toward the edge of the dark sky curtain.
"Run? None of you will escape!"
