No matter how talented Gongzi Yuan and Xiao Ruo Bai were, they were quite young after all, and they hadn't even reached the level of Underworld Saint. Therefore, they had no way to avoid an attack like that.
Xiao Ruo Bai found that she had been frozen in place and she was unable to move at all. She watched the spiritual energy getting closer and felt the pace of death drawing closer to her.
She should close her eyes so that she wouldn't be so scared. However, she controlled her emotions and continued to watch it draw closer.
The breath of death...desperation, unwillingness…
Just as she thought she was about to step into death, a hand grabbed her hand. That hand was full of strength, trust, care and hope.
Sima You Yue's familiar back stood in front of her and blocked the approach of death. Next, she saw her condensing her spiritual energy and dispersed the attack.
"Xi, Xi'er…"
