The ten figures looked at each other. They were not unaware of the passing of Huo Bing and Heiliao, but there was a more important matter than the two, namely the five pieces of life lying on the ground like worthless items.

Indeed, the task given to them is to capture the three people, but with the aim of getting the fruit of life. Now that the fruit of life was in sight, should they chase after the three?

Meanwhile Huo Bing and Heiliao continued running without looking back. Although they did not know how Xika was to bring out the fruits of life, but for now the most important thing was that they had to run as far as possible while the enemy's attention was distracted.

"Here."

Xika's voice sounded from the top of the tree not far from them. Huo Bing and Heiliao turned their heads, then jumped onto the same branch.

"Quickly. Call the wolves, we don't have much time" Xika said after letting the two take a few breaths.

Heiliao nodded then closed his eyes concentrating on contacting Lang Yan, the leader of the wolves other than himself.

While waiting, Huo Bing's attention was distracted by Xika's two hands. His hands were filled with blood and he could faintly see the white color behind it, which he suspected was a bone. Suddenly the bird frowned. As he remembered Xika had not fought with anyone throughout their escape. Moreover, in the basement earlier as well no one had managed to injure Xika that badly.

"What's wrong with your hand?"

"............ ."

Huo Bing pulled Xika's hand violently to check her condition, and the child immediately grimaced in pain, even Huo Bing could feel the child's hand tremble. Quickly he let go of the boy's hand carefully.

"You......"

Huo Bing suddenly realized where Xika got the wound. The fruit of life that appeared suddenly, Xika's hand that was injured so badly, now everything made sense.

"You took the fruit of life directly with your hands?!" said Huo Bing half in disbelief half in panic.

"Shttt.

"Fuck that! What are you taking the fruits of that life for?! Didn't Heiliao tell you you still can't take anything from the black hole for now? Are you crazy?!"

"Whisper! What if I don't throw the fruits of that life you and Heiliao can escape easily?!"

Huo Bing was silent for a moment not knowing what to say. She is grateful that Xika helped her, but thinking about Xika's current hand condition as payment so that she could escape makes her feel bad. After taking a few breaths, he opened his mouth again,

"Well what about those fruits now? You're giving it away for free like that?"

"Who said? I never give away my things for free." said Xika while smiling cunningly and confidently.

He opened both palms, then a second later appeared the five pieces of life that Xika had previously thrown. Xika grimaced in pain and immediately dropped the five fruits. Huo Bing hurriedly caught up to him before falling down.

After securing the Fruit of Life, Huo Bing looked at Xika with wide eyes.

"Hehehe. I can call him here anytime I want with that trace."

Huo Bing was stunned for a moment, then he glanced back at Xika's hand and was about to give another scolding, but Xika turned first when she saw Heiliao opened her eyes. Unfortunately, the twinkle of hope in Xika's eyes faded when she saw Heiliao's grim expression.

"Hey.....What's up? How do they respond?" huo Bing asked.

Heiliao took a deep breath before speaking, "I can't contact them."

"What?!"

THE SET!

Heiliao jumped onto another branch.

"I'll tell you on the street, for now we have to escape first because it seems that help will not come anytime soon."

"What-Hey!"

Huo Bing was still dissatisfied with Heiliao's sudden explanation, but the wolf forced her to follow along with Xika. So they started jumping from one branch to another like monkeys just a lot faster. They travel in trees to make it easier for them to hide than the bare ground below.

"Hey, Wolf Shit! What do you mean you can't contact the wolves?" huo Bing asked after herself more or less aligned with the wolf.

"I can't contact them. Somehow our communications are blocked."

"Have you never contacted them before? Aren't the two of you with Lang Yan both leaders of the wolves?"

I didn't care because I thought he was busy. It has been so a few times before. It's just that I didn't expect that he would be out of contact at all."

"Have you contacted another wolf?"

"I've contacted all the wolves I know, even Lang Xuehao."

"And all the results are nil?"

Heiliao nodded with a grim expression.

"Damn it!"

While hearing the two talk, Xika tried to return or contact Lang Jin, Lang Hu, and some other wolves. But the result was the same as Heiliao said, nil. He did not get any response, and the spatial imprint he had previously placed in the wolf forest, he could not feel from when.

"What do you think is the reason they can't be contacted? Is this only temporary or......"

"I don't know how long this will last. My guess is, I hope I'm wrong, they're facing a critical consensus that requires them to shut down all access to their forests. War, my worst guess. But I think, instead of confusing them, we better find a way out for now."

Indeed, at the moment they spoke, Huo Bingpun felt the existence of the ten figures approaching even though he did not know for sure where they were.

"Then what are our plans now?" xika asked after being silent for a long time.

"Discover as soon as possible and don't get caught."

"................"

Then the atmosphere became silent and no one else started the conversation. The three tried to move as quickly as possible, but still left spare energy in case they had to fight in the worst situation.

A SHOCK!

A yellow ball of considerable size shot out from the side. The three were forced to split up to avoid the attack.

CPRATS!

The ball hit a big tree and made a splash everywhere. Soon the big tree melted. The same thing happened to the tree that was hit by the splash.

"Suck!" Huo Bing cursed at once grateful that he chose to avoid the ball instead of continuing forward without a care.

"Forward! Don't stop!" heiliao said back to advance. Huo Bing and Xika were about to catch up when a voice sounded.

"Hisss......are you sure you want to move forward? hiss......"

Before them was an old man in a bright yellow robe standing on one of the branches of a tree twirling his whiskers. Behind him, hundreds of snakes filled the surrounding trees.

Huo Bing glared fiercely at the appearance of those hundreds of tree worms. How could they possibly know of his whereabouts? As he remembered he had already erased their traces since he was in the city. The snakes could not have eyes inside the capital.

The splash!

Swoshis!

Cprats!

Some snakes spewed something out of their mouths which the three immediately avoided. Each attack is as acidic as the previous attack. They avoided the attack swiftly.

"Ups! That was my substitute greeting. Well now, how about we have a little chat?"

CUH!

Huo Bing spat at the old man whom he dodged easily.

"yeah! You just chat with my spit. I'm busy, see you."

Without waiting for the yellow-robed man's response, he turned around and left with Xika and Heiliao.

But only one branch they moved, the figures were not foreign. They were the ten figures who had chased after them before.

Behind there were hundreds of snakes while in front were ten Royal Realm cultivators. Right in the middle of the two were Xika, Huo Bing, and Heiliao. And they're trapped.
