Lu Yuan suddenly appeared before Zhao Qiao'er like a savior.
This was something no one could have expected, that this little Daoist priest who had been looked down upon by the Wuqing Temple people would turn back against the tide at this moment of despair.
For Zhao Qiao'er, Lu Yuan at this moment was practically glowing with holy light!
Especially for Zhao Qiao'er, who had just experienced being abandoned and utter despair, Lu Yuan's image in her heart could no longer be described in words.
No one knew how Lu Yuan had arrived, but he just suddenly appeared before Zhao Qiao'er like this.
Zhao Qiao'er's nose turned sour, tears swirling in her eyes, almost crying out loud.
"Good nephew... you..."
Her voice choked, unable to complete a full sentence but now wasn't the time for reminiscing. Lu Yuan had no time to listen to her crying, his tone decisive as nails, leaving no room for negotiation, "Don't make noise!"
"Get on! Quickly!"
Zhao Qiao'er had no more nonsense to say. She lifted her skirt, those voluptuous, slender snow-white thighs tracing a heart-stopping arc in the moonlight.
She rushed quickly to Lu Yuan's back, her soft body directly lying on top.
To be honest, Lu Yuan's height wasn't particularly tall.
After all, Lu Yuan was just a high school student, still growing, only about 1.7 meters but Zhao Qiao'er's figure was an astonishing height of nearly 1.9 meters even barefoot.
She wasn't that kind of dry, stick-thin pole, but rather a perfectly ripe supreme peach.
Every inch emanated astonishing voluptuousness and sexiness, the kind of top-tier allure of a slender branch bearing large fruit.
With Zhao Qiao'er's voluptuous, prominent body lying on him like this, Lu Yuan felt himself instantly enveloped completely in warm fragrance and soft jade.
His whole person was like sinking into a mass of soft yet elastic clouds.
This scene was literally a small horse pulling a big cart.
As Zhao Qiao'er climbed on, accompanying her was that unique mature woman's feminine fragrance from her body.
Although the size comparison was disparate, Lu Yuan was a proper Daoist priest.
Practicing daily without rest, when working he frequently crossed mountains and ridges for dozens of miles. His muscles and bones had long been tempered far beyond ordinary people.
The instant Zhao Qiao'er settled on his back, Lu Yuan's arms swept backward, steadily supporting her two stunningly curved, voluptuous snow-white beautiful legs.
His waist and back exerted force, lifting her entirely onto his back without the slightest hesitation.
Wang Fu on the side was just about to direct the martial masters forward to guard them.
Lu Yuan, without turning his head back, barked lowly, "Steward Wang, don't worry about us!"
"These things are coming for Auntie Qiao'er. I'll take her away, the evil spirits will naturally chase after us!"
"You all take the chance to go down the mountain and hide in the town's ancestral hall!"
Wang Fu was stunned, instinctively looking at Zhao Qiao'er on Lu Yuan's back.
Zhao Qiao'er immediately understood, urgently commanding, "Listen to my good nephew!"
As her words fell, Lu Yuan wasted no more time. Carrying this astonishing "Jade Bodhisattva."
His legs exerted force fiercely, shooting into the vast night like an arrow released from its bow.
To be honest, given the current scene.
To rescue Zhao Qiao'er alone, even if a five-star Celestial Master came, they wouldn't be as effective as Lu Yuan!
Why?
Because it was too chaotic here right now. Even if a five-star Celestial Master came, it would be very difficult to use spiritual awareness to discover which direction had evil spirits and which way to flee.
If they ran in the wrong direction, with one careless moment they'd plunge headfirst into a nest of evil spirits.
Just like Hengmin, Huang Guanmin, and the other Wuqing Temple people. From the very beginning, they'd decided to abandon Zhao Qiao'er and break out themselves but they still hadn't broken through yet.
Why?
They couldn't find the direction! Outside was pitch black, they couldn't determine where there were many evil spirits and where there were few.
They could only charge around like headless flies. Once they encountered evil spirits blocking them, they could only shrink back and look for a new direction to break through but Lu Yuan was different. Lu Yuan had the [Subdue Demons and Eliminate Evil] system.
Where there were evil spirits, where there was clear passage, it was clear at a glance, already marked out for Lu Yuan.
So Lu Yuan was like having a heavenly eye opened. He chose a direction with fewer evil spirits and directly charged into the pitch-black night.
Lu Yuan's actions were naturally seen by Huang Guanmin.
Watching that stunningly sexy Zhao Qiao'er lying on Lu Yuan's body, disappearing into the dark night with Lu Yuan, for a moment he felt mixed emotions.
...
In the mountain ravine, Lu Yuan carried Zhao Qiao'er on his back, frantically rushing through the darkness.
When powerful evil spirits blocked the way ahead, Lu Yuan immediately twisted and changed direction, turning into another inconspicuous small path.
A frame just over 1.7 meters tall, carrying a stunning beauty far taller and more voluptuous than himself, yet running extremely fast.
Lu Yuan interpreted "all concentrated essence is precious" to the extreme.
A little rabbit carrying a big white radish, running so fast!!
"Good nephew, dear nephew, if auntie can get through this disaster, I'll definitely dote on you like my own nephew!"
"Whatever you want then, auntie will give you. I guarantee you wealth and honor for a lifetime!"
On Lu Yuan's back, Zhao Qiao'er hugging Lu Yuan tightly said with eyes full of emotion.
These words weren't just heartfelt words, not just words of gratitude, but even more an instinctive promise after grasping the only lifesaving straw.
She was too afraid.
Afraid Lu Yuan wouldn't be able to keep running, afraid Lu Yuan would also be like Huang Guanmin, at some moment choosing self-preservation and discarding her burden.
Lu Yuan heard the panic in her words. He turned his head slightly, grinning in the jolting motion to reveal a mouthful of white teeth.
"Auntie Qiao'er, don't say such things. We're not saving you for wealth and honor."
"We're saving you purely because a great beauty like you dying here would be too much of a waste. Our heart can't bear it."
"You can set your mind completely at ease. We'll definitely get you, this great beauty, out today."
When the mouth should be sweet, it still needs to be a bit sweeter~
This way, after truly rescuing Zhao Qiao'er later, wouldn't he also be able to get more reward money~
Zhao Qiao'er had heard the phrase "set your mind at ease" before. Back then, Huang Guanmin had also told Zhao Qiao'er to set her mind at ease but at that time, Huang Guanmin's appearance like a dog in heat had made Zhao Qiao'er instinctively wary.
But at this moment, borrowing the cool moonlight, looking at Lu Yuan's young yet steady profile.
Zhao Qiao'er felt an unprecedented sense of security.
Zhao Qiao'er was shrewd enough to naturally hear that this "good nephew" was trying to make her happy, wanting her not to be so nervous.
At this moment, she suddenly understood why someone like Song Meiqin, with eyes higher than the sky, picky and harsh, would praise Lu Yuan like that.
What woman wouldn't cherish such a young man?
Zhao Qiao'er's arms around Lu Yuan's neck unconsciously tightened a few more degrees, her breath like orchids, "Auntie... believes you!"
Lu Yuan carried Zhao Qiao'er, twisting east and west. After tossing about for over ten minutes, he discovered a severe problem.
This was bad!
Too many evil spirits!
They couldn't get down the mountain at all!!
All the paths down the mountain were completely blocked!
However, as the famous 'White-Robed Young Daoist' of this area, Lu Yuan didn't just have a little bit of skill!
Since they couldn't run out, then they'd hide, they'd take cover!!
A map flashed through Lu Yuan's mind. He immediately locked onto another direction and charged out fiercely again.
A few hundred meters away, there was a mountain god temple!
When Daoist priests went out to work, their preparatory work wasn't limited to just setting up rituals in the surroundings.
They would also investigate the surrounding environment in advance, fearing that if an accident occurred, they'd have a way out for themselves.
Actually, normally speaking, Old Master Xu, this jiangshi, only had a danger level of three stars for Lu Yuan.
There was completely no need to be this cautious but Lu Yuan believed he had no other advantages except being cautious and steady!
As soon as he'd arrived today, Lu Yuan had Xu Erxiao and Wang Cheng'an investigate the surroundings.
A few hundred meters ahead, there was a mountain god temple!
Since they couldn't run out, they'd enter the mountain god temple!
Hiding in a mountain god temple where a righteous deity was on duty, let's see if these evil spirits still dared to act presumptuously!
Three to five minutes later, after passing through a rugged and difficult mountain path, the outline of that mountain god temple hidden among the woods finally appeared in view!
But just as Lu Yuan planned to charge straight into the mountain god temple in one go, his footsteps suddenly halted, his entire person frozen in place.
This was bad!!
Damn it!!
They'd encountered a useless teammate!!
The mountain god in the mountain god temple wasn't on duty!!
Judging whether a mountain god was on duty never depended on whether the golden statue was bright, but on whether the ancient tree before the temple sprouted new buds, whether there was bird droppings on the temple roof tiles.
And this temple before his eyes, the old locust tree in front had withered, defeated branches, and the roof tiles were covered with a thick layer of bird droppings!
This mountain god hadn't returned in who knows how many years!
This temple was just an empty shell!
Lu Yuan cursed fiercely in his heart. Damn it!! It must be that little bastard Xu Erxiao who slacked off!
He'd just glanced from afar, saw the golden statue was still fairly fresh, and ran back to report and be done with it!
"Good nephew..."
"What... what's wrong? Why aren't you moving?"
Zhao Qiao'er lying on Lu Yuan's back, though she didn't understand how to examine mountain god temples, felt the body beneath her that had been steady as a rock suddenly tense up in that instant but Lu Yuan only froze for half a second, then turned and charged toward the deeper, higher mountain!
"It's nothing, Auntie Qiao'er!"
"Don't worry, I said I'd keep you safe, so I'll keep you safe!"
Go up the mountain!! Find thunderfire stones!
I hope that kid Wang Cheng'an is reliable!!
Otherwise, they'd really die here today!
