Beneficial Union: Chasing A Rogue Wife

Chapter 467: Nourishment



Chapter 467: Nourishment

Despite his being afraid of another chunk of rock passing their way, he still stood up and grabbed hold of one of them and did his best not to let go. Yet, he was roughly shoved to the side. 

However, before the being that pushed Elder Gu away was able to get far enough from them, he suddenly screamed in fright. 

"Ah! What is this?!"

Their attention shifted to the scream and to their surprise, the black mist had surrounded the man, halting his movement. 

They also heard screams coming from not far away, which were probably from those who left earlier. The man tried to get back to them but failed. 

They could only watch how the impurities slowly squeezed his body, just allowing his head to be visible. 

Splash!

It did not take long for his body to be shattered into blood and bone bits that immediately spread all over the place.

Blessed Juni did not allow any blood in the air to pass through them. She let a firewall surround them to burn any unwelcome matter. 

"Help me! I am going to die! Please! Please!" Despite that, the man still screamed for mercy. He left because he wanted to preserve his life, but the moment he was not part of the light illuminated by the Blesseds, the impurities surrounded him. 

The man's screams for help continued until his head was utterly squeezed then shattered by the dark mist. He was entirely consumed by the impurities until nothing was left, but specks of blood turned before spraying in the air. 

"No! I do not want to die like that!" Gao Shen could not help but hold his head with both hands. 

Gao Lan Mei did not expect that to happen. The process was so familiar that a chill ran down her spine. That was because what happened was something that she knew how to do as well! 

"The enemy uses Devour." She whispered softly to herself. Gao Lan Mei forced her stiff neck to look back at Mount Hua and stared closely at the floating cage within the storm of impurities. 

".Oh, blessed dragons." Gao Lan Mei murmured, subconsciously copying Wei Jiayi's curse. 

There on top of the Immortal cage, she saw a silhouette that was looking down at them with red eyes before vanishing instantly.

"Did you see that?" Gao Lan Mei asked. 

"See what? What are you even looking at?! Save your energy! We have to resume attacking the Boundary spell before all of you are used as nourishments! We cannot let them completely open the sealed cage!" Blessed Elin shouted in disdain before summoning a bunch of ice swords to attack the space. 

"Blessed Elin, are you saying that the cage is still not open?" Gao Lan Mei asked pale-faced. "Will it fall on the ground like the golden chain?"

"Why are you asking that now? Of course, it will be shattered completely and fall all over the place like the one before. We still have time before they can open it fully and release a demon incarnate!" Blessed Elin said. They were not aware who was sealed inside and who sealed it. With the current situation, they could only run away. 

"We need to do everything to leave from here!" Gao Lan Mei exclaimed. An enemy was already out of the Immortal cage, then why was the cage still not fully open? 

There was more than one sealed on it! 

Was this her instinct to survive? Her mind was sending out urgent warning signals.

No, because she was feeling the pain and it intensified further as she continued to feel a sense of foreboding call out to her from within the Immortal cage. 

'Do you want this body just as badly as I do?' Gao Lan Mei asked looking at the Immortal Cage. 'Why does everyone wants my body for themselves?' 

"Ah!" Before she could even know the answer, Gao Lan Mei felt bone wrecking agony. Unable to endure it, a scream came out of her mouth. She did manage to bite her tongue and cover her mouth with her hand that was initially holding a sword to stop another yell of pain. 

It was too late though since Wei Jiayi and Blessed Elin, being nearest to her, they heard it. 

Wei Jiayi did not know where she was hurting, and his hands that wanted to help her was trembling, but did not reach as he was worried of making her pain worse. He looked so tormented as if he was the one in pain.

"Blessed Elin, do something!" Wei Jiayi said, almost begging. They needed to leave, but how?! 

 "Look! Who is that?!" 

Someone suddenly shouted, pointing at the silhouette of a woman walking leisurely. They could not feel her presence but from her bright red eyes within the dark mist, they could tell that she was not a comrade. 

To protect Gao Lan Mei, Wei Jiayi immediately hid her behind him. 

Everyone held their breath as they stared at the silhouette. They nervously swallowed their saliva fearing their dim future. The idea of dying soon sent chills down their spines.

Still lying prostrate on the ground, Wei Jiayi glared at the silhouette. 

Its eyes still glowed red, but it did not seem to be not moving anymore. 

'Nothing?'

Wei Jiayi looked behind him. He saw the deathly pale face of Gao Lan Mei as she glared into the dark mist with disdain. 

Her breathing was getting rougher by the second. Wei Jiayi couldn't let her be like this. He had to do something.

Wei Jiayi was about to raise his body thinking that he had to do something here, but then, someone grabbed his shoulders and pushed him back down, hard.

"Don't get up." It was Gao Lan Mei! Wei Jiayi was surprised to see that she still had the energy to push him. 

"Nobody move! Stay exactly where you are!" Gao Lan Mei yelled.
