NOVPUB"Fuck, there’s no end to this, huh!"
Wu Bin’s mentality was somewhat explosive at this moment.
This was the first time he had jumped off the platform and run on the tracks, and even that was a great adventure for Wu Bin.
He had thought that after being forced into such a wretched state, the other party would finally give up.
But who knew that the monster fish was like a rabid dog, relentlessly chasing after him!
"This can’t go on like this, do you have any way to deal with it?"
At this moment, Wu Bin and the others could not see the end of the rail tracks in front of them, who knew how long they would have to run?
If one were to calculate the distance between subway stations, he would have to run at least three kilometers to reach the next platform.
The most important thing was that the monster fish was right behind him; even if he ran to the next platform, it would be meaningless as he still couldn’t shake it off.
Zhu Ling curled her lip and said, "This kind of trash, I could kill it instantly with a move, but there’s no need."
"I’ve only just awakened not long ago, and the spiritual power inside me hasn’t recovered much. If I make a move to deal with this kind of trash, it would be too much of a waste of spiritual power."
Wu Bin had a bit of a headache.
What kind of a time was this for Zhu Ling to still be worrying about her little bit of spiritual power!
Whoosh!
Wu Bin vaguely heard the sound of something cutting through the air behind him.
Instinctively, he turned his head aside, and something sharp, like a scale, grazed his ear and embedded itself in the concrete wall ahead!
What the hell!
Are these scales that sharp?
Wu Bin broke out in a cold sweat.
If he hadn’t turned his head just now, that scale would have sliced off his ear!
"Zhu Ling, stop worrying about your spiritual power! Quickly make your move, or we’re both going to die here!"
Zhu Ling curled her lip again and said, "I’m not going to die here, this kind of trash can’t hurt me."
Zhu Ling said that, but she didn’t want Wu Bin to get hurt either.
After all, Wu Bin was her long-term meal ticket and her nominal big brother.
If Wu Bin died in front of her, then as a sister, she would be too useless.
With this thought, Zhu Ling stopped, turned around, and faced the monster fish.
The monster fish clearly hadn’t expected Zhu Ling to be bold enough to stop.
The two of them were always on the edge of its attack range. The moment Zhu Ling stopped, the monster fish immediately launched an attack.
All the scales on its body stood on end.
The next second, alongside a shrill screech, all those scales flew towards them!
"Shit! Dodge it!"
Wu Bin dived to try and knock Zhu Ling to the ground.
But when his large body collided with Zhu Ling’s, she didn’t move an inch.
It was an awkward situation.
Wu Bin felt like he had run into a tree, or to say, he was now completely hanging on Zhu Ling.
Zhu Ling said irritably, "Didn’t you want me to take action? Go to the back and stop getting in the way here."
Wu Bin turned around and saw that Zhu Ling had somehow raised her right hand.
All the scales that had been flying towards them were blocked by a semi-transparent dome of flames!
The moment this flame dome appeared, the monster fish, which had been going wild, had its eyes clear instantly.
It cowered on the ground, trembling as if it had seen something terrifying, suddenly abandoning its aggressive stance.
Wu Bin watched this scene with intense curiosity.
"What’s wrong with it? Has it gone mad?"
Zhu Ling snorted and said, "It’s just a lowly dragon servant. I hold a higher status than it does, so my bloodline naturally exerts a suppressing effect on it."
After speaking, Zhu Ling flicked a finger, and a small ball of flame traced a beautiful arc through the air, landing on the bizarre fish.
The moment the flame touched the creature’s body, it burst into a violent conflagration.
The monster let out a piercing scream, but even so, it remained prostrate on the ground, daring not to move, until it was reduced to ashes!
Witnessing this scene, Wu Bin was dumbstruck.
"Are you really that powerful?"
Zhu Ling said proudly, "Of course, I’ve said these small fry aren’t worth my efforts. Next time, I’ll suppress them, and you can handle them yourself, saving me a bit of spiritual power."
Even though Zhu Ling had only released a small ball of flame, it still consumed spiritual power.
In this world that’s become a ’dead-end heavenly passage,’ one might say we are in the age of decline.
In such times, every bit of spiritual power counts, and Zhu Ling naturally didn’t want to waste it.
Wu Bin let out a sigh of relief and said, "Don’t worry, if we encounter this situation again, I’ll find a way to handle it myself and won’t trouble you."
Wu Bin’s solution was simple: go back and request to have Nightingale protect him around the clock.
Under Nightingale’s protection, Wu Bin believed he would be safe.
As Wu Bin was thinking this, suddenly there was the sound of shattering glass up ahead.
Wu Bin looked closely and his scalp tingled at the sight.
Three monstrous fish charged out of the platform ahead, their gaze immediately locking onto Wu Bin and Zhu Ling.
Similarly, they felt the terrifying aura emanating from Zhu Ling.
But unlike the previous fish, these three seemed more intelligent, and their scales were a different color, having a golden sheen to them.
Zhu Ling’s brow furrowed.
"Three dragon soldiers?"
"This is a bit troublesome; my bloodline suppression is ineffective against them."
Dragon soldiers belong to the warrior class of bloodline descendants. Although they could sense that Zhu Ling was not an easy target, the bloodline suppression had minimal impact on them, not enough to make them prostrate themselves and await death.
This meant that if Zhu Ling wanted to deal with them, she would need to use more spiritual power.
Wasting spiritual power on these insignificant creatures was the last thing Zhu Ling wanted to do.
Zhu Ling said to Wu Bin, "Brother, perhaps we should just run. I need to conserve my spiritual power for my ascension."
Wu Bin could only offer a wry smile in response.
"Alright, let’s run."
Without hesitation, Wu Bin grabbed Zhu Ling’s hand and turned to flee.
The three fish that had been wary at first now roared and pursued them vigorously.
Every look Wu Bin cast behind him startled him tremendously.
The speed of these three monstrous fish was astoundingly fast!
There was no water here, yet they moved as if they were swimming, their velocity nearly unbelievable!
They definitely couldn’t outrun them like this; they were done for, about to be caught!
Just when Wu Bin thought they were doomed, Zhu Ling grabbed him and pulled him into a maintenance hatch.
At that moment, a subway train roared past them, striking and sending the three monstrous fish flying!
The three didn’t even have a chance to scream before they were obliterated by the high-speed train.
