Chapter 2862
“Fire Phoenix, you need to run on your own; I really can’t keep going anymore…”
Yu Jiameng was completely drained. Her energy had been severely depleted after such prolonged exertion, and her already weak strength had dwindled to nothing!
“Sister Jiameng, please hold on…”
Fire Phoenix grasped Yu Jiameng’s arm tightly!
“Let me go! If this continues, neither of us will escape. If you get the chance to reach the secular world, tell my father not to worry about me!”
Yu Jiameng pushed Fire Phoenix away, urging her to flee alone!
“Sister Jia Meng, I won’t abandon you…”
Fire Phoenix insisted, attempting to carry Yu Jiameng on her back!
But just then, Gao Qisheng and his men closed in, surrounding the two of them!
“Hmph, let’s see if you can still run. I warned you, no one escapes from me here,” Gao Qisheng taunted, a smirk on his face!
“If you dare to touch us, you’ll regret it! My master will not let you go,” Fire Phoenix shot back fiercely!
“Hahaha, master?” Gao Qisheng laughed. “From now on, I’ll be your master, and both of you will become my slaves.”
He chuckled, not realizing that Fire Phoenix was actually a divine beast.
Exchanging glances, Fire Phoenix and Yu Jiameng replied defiantly, “Even if we die, we won’t let you have us…”
With that, both of them unleashed their auras, preparing to self-destruct!
“Want to die? It won’t be that easy.”
With a swift motion, Gao Qisheng commanded his men to restrain Fire Phoenix and Yu Jiameng, preventing them from carrying out their desperate plan!
Their vast difference in strength made it impossible for Fire Phoenix and her companion to even think about self-detonation!
“Now tell me, where’s the other girl?” Gao Qisheng demanded, glaring at them!
But neither Fire Phoenix nor Yu Jiameng would utter a word, both glaring back at him with fury!
“Second Young Master, I suspect the other girl is still inside the cave,” one of the Gao family members suggested!
“Go, search for her…”
Gao Qisheng ordered his men to comb through the cave!
However, after searching for a considerable time, they found no sign of Su Yuqi!
“Brother, the girl may have escaped a long time ago. Two women are enough for you to entertain yourself; we should hurry back, or big brother will be angry,” Gao Qijie urged Gao Qisheng!
“Fine, let’s head back, but don’t say anything foolish to big brother, understood?”
Gao Qisheng snapped at Gao Qijie!
“Understood!”
Gao Qijie nodded, a resigned expression on his face!
Shortly thereafter, Gao Qisheng departed with the captured Fire Phoenix and Yu Jiameng!
Not long after they left, a man clad in black robes approached!
As he reached the cave entrance, he paused momentarily!
Then, in a flash, he entered the cave!
Surveying the area, the black-robed man noticed where Su Yuqi had been frozen. With a swift wave of his hand, two flames erupted!
The ice began to melt, revealing Su Yuqi!
“Fire feathers? Such divine beast feathers are here?” The black-robed man collected the fire feathers and examined Su Yuqi’s body.
“Still alive! A fire spirit body is an exceptionally rare physique!”
“Hahahaha, fortune is truly on my side!”
The black-robed man laughed heartily.
Without hesitation, he lifted Su Yuqi and quickly vanished!
Once he departed, tranquility returned to the cave, and the deep pit began to freeze over again amid the howling wind and snow!
It was as if no one had ever been there before.
The winds continued to howl around them.
