Chapter 1387 1385: Breaking Out of Mystic Iron Mountain!
However, at this moment.
Boom!
A loud explosion echoed from the prison cell.
Everyone was stunned!
Before they could react, a fierce beast-like airflow rushed over, carrying terrifying Netherworld Ghost Fire!
Xu Tianrui was shocked, wanting to dodge but it was too late.
His entire body was lifted by the blast, and at the same time, the Netherworld Ghost Fire sprayed over, engulfing him completely!
Zhu Qilue, collapsing on the ground near the wall, was not thrown by the strong blast. The Netherworld Ghost Fire soared over his head, allowing him to escape a disaster.
Zhu Ruoling, standing farther from the cell, was only pushed back a few steps by the blast, and the Netherworld Ghost Fire did not reach her position.
Among the three, Xu Tianrui was in the worst state!
The Netherworld Ghost Fire burned in the air, and Xu Tianrui flew out from the fire, landing heavily on the ground!
His whole body was inhuman!
Especially his face, entirely corroded by the Netherworld Ghost Fire, looked neither human nor ghostly, even more hideous and terrifying.
However, he managed to preserve his life.
The entire prison was filled with Xu Tianrui's heart-wrenching screams, chilling everyone to the bone.
Zhu Ruoling and Zhu Qilue never expected such a reversal!
The sudden explosion saved them from Xu Tianrui's grasp.
"Wha...what's going on?"
Zhu Qilue struggled to support his body, looking in shock at the burned Xu Tianrui, and then at the cell engulfed in flames.
"Brother!"
Only then did Zhu Ruoling regain her senses, hurriedly running over in a panic.
"Brother, are you all right..."
"You said... cough... almost lost half my life... he hit really hard, aiming to kill..."
Zhu Qilue looked at Zhu Ruoling's anxious expression yet smiled as he spoke.
He maintained a good attitude, even in such danger, he could still joke.
For if he hadn't, being called a waste from childhood, he would have collapsed long ago.
"In such a situation, you're still laughing..." Zhu Ruoling looked at the heavily injured Zhu Qilue, full of distress. "Brother, we shouldn't stay here any longer, let's leave first."
"Hmm...I don't know why the explosion happened earlier, if it happens again, the entire prison might collapse. Let's leave quickly."
Zhu Qilue said, leaning on Zhu Ruoling's shoulder and struggling to stand.
The two staggered towards the door of the prison.
Xu Tianrui was still rolling on the ground, his exposed skin burned to the point of nearly melting, especially his face, unrecognizable as Xu Tianrui, almost like he had become a different person.
"Brother..."
"Let's go."
The two glanced at Xu Tianrui, feeling no sympathy. Just now, he was spewing filthy words at Zhu Ruoling.
Now, looking like this, it's just karma.
As Zhu Qilue was seriously injured, their pace was very slow, inching their way out of the prison.
Just as they were about to exit the prison.
A chilling and hair-raising voice sounded from behind.
"Where do you...think you're going?!"
Zhu Qilue and Zhu Ruoling froze on the spot, exchanging a fearful glance.
Both shivered simultaneously, turning back in surprise.
They saw Xu Tianrui, panting heavily, his distorted face and features looking even more frightening as he slowly stood up from the ground!
His armor was mostly gone, the exposed skin like melted wax solidified again, disgustingly wrinkled.
He looked like a monster crawling out of Hell, bizarrely shocking, making one get goosebumps at a glance.
Zhu Qilue and Zhu Ruoling gasped in shock!
Unexpectedly, Xu Tianrui, after such a heavy impact and burnt by the Netherworld Ghost Fire, could still stand up, utterly terrifying!
What kind of monster was this guy!
"Think you can leave? Not that... easy. You think I'm injured... and can't kill you? Ridiculous! As long as I'm breathing, you will die by my hand..."
Xu Tianrui roared like thunder, his voice booming like thunderclaps.
Though full of momentum, before he could finish speaking.
A dark shadow shot out from the prison fire like lightning, appearing behind Xu Tianrui in an instant, kicking him without any warning on his back.
Xu Tianrui, heavily injured, was slow to react, his full attention on Zhu Qilue and Zhu Ruoling, and never expected someone would rush out of the cell.
Boom!
Before Xu Tianrui could finish his sentence, he was kicked away, utterly embarrassed.
Like a missile, he flew up, passing between Zhu Qilue and Zhu Ruoling, directly crashing into a nearby wall, facing the wall, and firmly embedded into it.
He couldn't even let out a groan!
Zhu Qilue and Zhu Ruoling's jaws hit the ground, speechless and dumbfounded.
What was going on?
Could the Commander of the Chiyun Army be just gone like that?
They blinked, staring blankly at Xu Tianrui embedded in the stone wall. The latter was motionless, whether alive or dead was unknown.
They abruptly turned their heads, seeing a stunningly beautiful and gracefully figured woman.
However, her beauty was entirely different from Zhu Ruoling.
It was a mature allure.
Both were mesmerized; never had they seen such a woman in the Fire Clan. If such a woman existed, she would have made a sensation.
So they determined, she couldn't be from the Fire Clan.
But how did she get out of the cell, could it be there was an Otherworld in there?
Little did they know, the one who flew out of the cell was the Divine Phoenix!
She pierced through layers of clouds, sheltering her body with wings through the Netherworld Ghost Fire, and burst out from Mystic Iron Mountain.
However, her wings were slightly scorched, and she bore a few subtle injuries.
"Did you set the fire?" The Divine Phoenix glared angrily at Zhu Qilue and Zhu Ruoling.
The two snapped back to reality, quickly shaking their heads.
"No... no..."
"There are only you two here, if not you then who?! Quickly put out the fire, or I'll be unkind!"
"Ah..."
The two exchanged a glance, clueless on how to explain.
This woman, wherever she came from, suddenly fired at them without reason, utterly baffling.
"This fire really wasn't started by us, if we knew how to put it out, we would've done it, not delaying till now." Zhu Qilue explained patiently.
"I warn you, don't try to deceive me, or you will die in a miserable way."
Zhu Qilue rolled his eyes helplessly, thinking what was happening today, everyone wanted to kill him, what exactly had he done wrong.
He shook his head, motioning towards the fire pillar in the center.
"Do you see this pillar in the middle? The Netherworld Ghost Fire is burning from here. If you want to extinguish the fire, you must put this pillar's fire out first, then the cell's flame can be put out."
While speaking, suddenly he remembered something.
"Is Lin Fan still alive?!"
The Divine Phoenix studied the pillar, raising an eyebrow at Zhu Qilue upon hearing the question.
"Alive."
