Chapter 172 Determination
But before Chongyun could take a step forward, Xingqiu stepped forward and pushed him down.
"Are you crazy?!"
Frightened by his friend's unreasonable thoughts, Xingqiu's usual demeanor suddenly disappeared. His originally quiet face was filled with anxiety. He never expected that Chongyun would be so hot-headed.
.
"Didn't you see what happened to that woman just now? As long as she is swept away by that thing, the human body is no different from an ant. It will be wiped out in an instant. If you go like this, you will die!"
Xingqiu grabbed Chongyun's collar tightly and roared without any scruples.
However, Chongyun's expression remained unchanged as he was picked up. He was not angry because of Xingqiu's excessive behavior, nor was he scared by the huge monster not far away.
Seeing his friend's excited reaction, Chongyun lowered his head, relief written all over his face.
"What's the matter, Xingqiu, you should know that I come from a family of alchemists, and there are some things that cannot be shied away from."
What's more, he didn't want to shirk it.
The mountain-like monster moved slowly, kicking up clouds of dust as its soles stepped on the ground, blocking everyone's view in front of them.
But even so, the heavy footsteps falling on the ground did not disturb Chongyun's determination at all.
He still pursed his lips and looked at his best friend.
Sometimes, responsibility is more important than life.
Seeing the two people at war with each other, Bai Qiyun couldn't help but turn his head.
He knew that what Xingqiu cared about was that he didn't want to see his friend die meaninglessly.
Facing such a monster, not to mention Chongyun, even if the three of them join forces, there is no chance of winning. It's not that he has given up on chivalry, but because his friend's life cannot be sacrificed so meaninglessly.
What Chongyun upholds is the inheritance from several generations of his family. Eliminating demons and defending the Tao is their family's long-cherished wish, and it is the mission he most wants to complete since he was a child with a pure Yang body.
Bai Qiyun was very aware of Chongyun's experience. Because his pure Yang body would unconsciously destroy the demons around him, those who asked him to come out could not see Chongyun's actions at all, so they often doubted whether Chongyun was a liar.
It is precisely for this reason that Chongyun is more enthusiastic about eradicating monsters than anyone else. It is not only the family's mission, but also his own wish.
There is no right or wrong, or both are right.
only...
Looking at the tall monster not far away, Bai Qiyun frowned.
"let me go."
In the tangled eyes of his friend, Chongyun forcefully pulled his hands away from his collar.
This was the first time that Chongyun showed such a tough stance towards Xingqiu.
Because he has a reason to do so.
The young alchemist took steps towards the monster with a firm look on his face.
"I don't want to die, but only in this way can we and I truly live."
Chongyun did not comment on Xingqiu's dissuasion, but he also had his own will.
The slightly stronger words made Xingqiu stay where he was, lowering his head and not knowing what he was thinking about.
For Chongyun, he wanted to destroy the monster that broke out of the seal, but he also didn't want to cause the sacrifice of his companions because of himself.
If this can make Xingqiu stay where he is, that's not bad.
Unfortunately, all of this was seen through by Bai Qiyun, who had been watching for a long time.
"What do you want to do."
Chongyun was quite surprised by what the young chef from Liyue said.
He turned around and looked at Bai Qiyun with his hands in his arms.
Black hair covered Bai Qiyun's forehead. Similar to Chongyun, the other person's eyes, as deep as the stars in the night sky, had already been tinged with determination. It was obvious that Bai Qiyun had made up his mind.
"Brother Yun, you..."
"Needless to say, Qingcezhuang is my hometown, and I can't leave them alone."
Yes, even though they have not seen each other for many years, the descendants of the Bai family who live in Qingce Village are still his relatives.
That cannot be given up no matter what.
It seems that no one has their own reasons.
Looking at Bai Qiyun's expression, Chongyun knew that the other party would not change his decision, so he nodded.
His short ice-blue hair swayed back and forth beside his ears, and a few drops of sweat actually covered his forehead, falling continuously with his movements.
It seems that even though Chongyun has made up his mind to leave, he is not as calm as he appears on the surface.
Also, facing such a huge monster, everyone's heart will be shaken.
"Okay, if that's the case, then--"
"Two lunatics."
When Chongyun spoke, Xingqiu, who was standing aside, lowered his head and muttered softly.
Each and every one of them felt as if they were dying.
Wouldn't that make him look timid?
Immediately, Xingqiu raised his head high, and the previous entanglement disappeared, replaced by a face full of reluctance.
His eyes moved back and forth between Bai Qiyun and Chongyun, and he curled his lips.
Perhaps he felt that this was a bit petty, so he quickly started to act pretentious.
He held his hands in front of his chest, raised his chin slightly, and closed his eyes, looking like a young lady from somewhere, extremely stinky.
"Hmph, since neither of you are afraid of death, how could I be afraid of death?"
Seeing the way he picked up his accent, both Bai Qiyun and Chongyun couldn't help but laugh.
Smiling, Xingqiu squinted his eyes, perhaps infected by the two people's somewhat rough laughter, and started laughing too.
The gloomy atmosphere before was gradually diluted by the laughter of everyone.
After a while, Bai Qiyun touched the tears that overflowed from the corners of his eyes and brought the topic back to how to deal with the enemy.
"Now that we've decided, let's sort out the situation first."
It's impossible for just three people to rush straight towards that behemoth. That would be too stupid.
The fog in the valley became thicker and thicker as the monster moved, and it was about to cover everyone's eyes.
Against the gray air, Bai Qiyun slowly spoke to the two of them.
"Although I don't know the origin of that monster, judging from the previous situation, it undoubtedly escaped from the seal."
This can be judged from the way the black wolf appeared before, and the other two people have no doubt about it.
"Although that black smoke is very corrosive, have you noticed that since the monster reappeared, the corrosive environment around it has stopped."
The trees that had been severely corroded before were still able to maintain intact branches and leaves under the trampling of the monster. This shows that unlike the black smoke, the monster's body is not unconsciously corroded.
Sex, this is good news for a few people.
After all, if the opponent touches you, you will die without a burial place, so there is no way to fight against it.
"One last thing..."
Bai Qiyun raised his head and looked at the sky full of gray fog.
"I suspect that the gray mist everywhere in the valley may be part of the seal." If you like Genshin Impact, Spear Still, please collect it: (https://www.bajiewx.com) Genshin Impact, Spear Still Search Novel Network has the fastest update speed on the entire Internet
