Chapter 249 A Daring Escape
As the call came, the surrounding air suddenly turned cold, as if even the flames were suppressed for a moment.
Mo Ming felt a chill run down his spine and quickly scanned his surroundings, warily searching for the guy known as "Devil Cry".
Suddenly, a slender figure leaped lightly from a towering tree in the distance. The figure moved as lightly as a feather, but the moment it landed, the ground trembled slightly, as if it contained an undeniable force.
Devil May Cry was dressed in a long black robe, the hem of which fluttered silently in the wind like a ghost.
A pale, ghostly mask had appeared on his face, revealing only a pair of cold eyes through the mask's holes, their gaze sharp as knives, piercing the unseen.
Devil May Cry walked slowly toward Mo Ming, his steps slow yet carrying a suffocating sense of oppression.
Mo Ming turned around and saw the person who had approached, which made him even more panicked. His hand instinctively tightened around the bronze demon-suppressing sword. The wound on his shoulder was still throbbing, but he knew that the person in front of him was more terrifying than Vista.
"This guy... he's been watching the fight the whole time, without making a single move."
Mo Ming thought to himself, cold sweat beading on his forehead, "Even when I unleashed my fiery sword energy, he didn't intend to launch a sneak attack. This shows that he is very confident in his own strength and doesn't take me seriously at all."
Ghost Cry stopped, standing ten paces away from Mo Ming. He didn't rush to attack, but instead spoke in a low, hoarse voice: "Only Crimson Purple level, how did you manage to control spiritual power?"
Mo Ming didn't answer, but instead stared at him cautiously, his mind racing as he considered a solution. The guy in front of him seemed quite dangerous just from his aura.
Seeing Mo Ming remain silent, Gui Qi sneered, his voice laced with a chilling mockery: "Don't want to talk? Fine... Let me guess, is it because of the sword in your hand?"
Mo Ming frowned slightly, his heart sinking. He knew that Ghost Cry's guess was close to the truth, but he couldn't easily reveal any information.
But in order to buy time, he calmed himself down and said, "What exactly is your purpose in cooperating with Vista? Someone like you is really willing to join forces with such a treacherous villain?"
Upon hearing this, Ghost Cry's gaze sharpened slightly, seemingly surprised by Mo Ming's question. But soon, he revealed a cold smile: "Whether Vista is insidious or a villain, so what? I need him, and he needs me, that's all."
"Need him?" Mo Ming retorted with a sneer. "Aren't you afraid he'll use you and then betray you? This isn't the first time he's done something like this."
Hearing Mo Ming's words, Vista, who was standing to the side, was so angry that he gritted his teeth and said, "Stop spouting nonsense."
A chill flashed in Devil Cry's eyes, seemingly uninterested in Mo Ming's words.
He said slowly, "You think you can buy time with these words? You're crazy, aren't you? I admit you're smart, but in the face of absolute power, all schemes are futile."
Mo Ming's heart tightened, but his face showed no sign of panic. His gaze swept across the distant battlefield, and he saw Xiong Da and Meng Ling being suppressed by Lei Bao. Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind—a way to escape.
"It seems that time has been dragged out for quite a while."
The ghostly wailing sound rang out again, his patience seemingly exhausted. He then slowly raised his hand, a chilling aura emanating from his body, making the surrounding air even colder, and even the flames on the Mo Ming Sword flickered slightly.
"Die!"
With a low shout, Gui Qi's figure moved like a ghost, instantly closing in on Mo Ming. The knife in his hand transformed into a cold light, aiming straight for Mo Ming's heart.
Mo Ming's eyes narrowed, and he stepped forward instead of retreating, charging towards Gui Qi. Flames erupted from the bronze demon-suppressing sword, colliding fiercely with Gui Qi's blade.
"boom!"
The two forces collided, creating a gust of wind. Mo Ming felt an immense force coming from the sword, and his body was thrown backward, crashing heavily to the ground, a trickle of blood escaping from the corner of his mouth.
Devil May Cry stood still, looking at him coldly: "Is that all you've got?"
Mo Ming gritted his teeth and forced himself to stand up.
He took a deep breath, gripped the sword with both hands, and his spiritual power surged wildly within him, causing the flames on the bronze sword to intensify. He swung the sword fiercely, and a blazing sword aura shot straight towards Ghost Cry!
A hint of disdain flashed in Ghost Cry's eyes as he dodged the sword energy with a swift movement. However, in the instant he dodged, Mo Ming suddenly pounced forward, his bronze sword aimed straight at Ghost Cry's chest.
Ghost Cry snorted coldly, his battle blade flashing horizontally to deflect Mo Ming's attack. However, Mo Ming's goal wasn't to defeat him, but rather to cleverly switch positions with him during the confrontation!
Ghost Cry unleashed a slash, and Mo Ming raised his sword to parry, but his defenses were wide open, and Ghost Cry then kicked Mo Ming away with a heavy kick.
"The opportunity has come!"
Mo Ming, suspended in mid-air, was overjoyed. His gaze quickly swept across another battlefield, where he saw Xiong Da and Meng Ling being suppressed by Lei Bao. He immediately shouted, "Xiong Da, use Earth Split! Meng Ling, take off!"
Upon hearing Mo Ming's shout, Xiong Da and Meng Ling, relying on their long-standing tacit understanding, instantly grasped their master's intention.
So, Xiong Da stood firmly on his feet, and dark yellow energy flowed continuously into his body. Then, his huge bear paw slammed into the ground, releasing powerful earth vein energy.
Just as Lei Bao charged forward, a huge crack suddenly appeared in the ground, and Lei Bao, caught off guard, fell straight down!
At the same time, Mengling quickly ascended into the air, and Xiongda seized the opportunity to shrink his body and jump onto Mengling's back. The moment Mo Ming fell to the ground, ignoring the pain, he immediately rushed towards Mengling; this was his only chance.
However, how could Ghost Cry let him escape so easily? Ghost Cry flashed and instantly appeared in front of Mo Ming. His battle blade, gleaming with a chilling light, swung out fiercely, knocking Mo Ming back to the ground.
"Trying to escape? Not so easy!" Ghost Cry said coldly, his eyes flashing with killing intent.
Just then, Mengling let out a clear cry, and water elements rapidly gathered around her, transforming into a giant water dragon that slammed into Guiqi. Guiqi raised his sword to block, but was knocked away by the water dragon, his body tumbling several times in the air before crashing heavily to the ground.
The water dragon under Mengling's control swooped down and swept Mo Ming up, catching him securely on its back.
"go!"
Mo Ming shouted, and Meng Ling flapped her wings and took flight, carrying Mo Ming and Xiong Da into the air, heading towards the shelter.
"Vista, you just wait, I'll kill you sooner or later! Devil May Cry, huh? You just wait too!"
Lei Bao had just crawled out of the crevice when he saw this scene and let out a roar.
However, unable to fly, it was too late to stop it.
On the ground, Ghost Cry and Vista watched the figure receding into the distance in the sky, their faces grim, their eyes filled with anger and resentment.
"Damn it!" Vista said through gritted teeth, "He actually got away!"
Devil May Cry coldly gazed at the sky and muttered, "Hmph! Just you wait..."
