Chapter 272 Jiang He ~~I'm running for my life~ I can't hear you!
"Oh dear, something's not right. The monster tide has arrived, but why haven't the S-rank monsters come yet?"
Li Songcheng looked back anxiously.
The live stream clearly showed the location of the more than two hundred people from Lingqing Academy.
Looking down from above, one could see that almost all of the more than two hundred cultivators from Lingqing Academy were standing on floating ice, with icebergs and snow-capped mountains in front of them.
Aside from the Lingqing Academy cultivators standing on the ice, the glacier serves as a dividing line, and directly opposite them are the demons that have migrated due to the temperature changes.
There were many of these demons, a dark mass, and they were constantly running towards Wanqi Ziye and his group.
Icebergs are formed from large chunks of freshwater ice that break off from glaciers or polar ice caps and float in the sea.
Icebergs are primarily composed of ice, not snow, but there is still a layer of snow on their surface.
As the ice layer inside the glacier and the snow mountain changed simultaneously, Li Songcheng's gaze was drawn to the distant snow mountain.
"Ziye, an avalanche has occurred..."
Li Songcheng spoke, but his expression remained calm. He watched as large areas of snow slid down the snow-covered mountain, burying the migrating demons under wave after wave of snow.
Even the icebergs around them miraculously began to break apart.
Wanqi Ziye hesitated for a moment. The monsters behind them were getting closer and closer. They hadn't seen an S-rank monster yet, so it wasn't worth staying here any longer.
He turned and decided to leave.
"retreat."
As soon as Wanqi Ziye gave the order, all the cultivators of Lingqing Academy sprang into action.
Li Songcheng, carrying the zither on his back, paused slightly as he felt the ground tremor. This tremor was different from the one caused by the gathering and migration of demons.
The water beneath the ice rippled in concentric circles.
Li Songcheng spoke in a hoarse voice:
"Wait, I see it."
Wanqi Ziye also stopped his retreat: "It's here!"
This is a sound that only high-level monsters can make.
"Everyone move towards the highest glacier peak! If you encounter any aerial monsters, kill them immediately!"
More than two hundred cultivators from Lingqing Academy flew up to the ice mountain on their swords.
Although the scene of so many cultivators setting off together was not as shocking as the monster tide, the viewers watching the live stream keenly noticed something.
[: It's here, what does that mean?]
Could it be the S-rank monster that Ling Qing has been staking out?
That's quite possible. I've had a feeling that these icebergs have been swaying since the very beginning.
Look at the Lingqing Academy's channel. Wanqi Ziye has issued a summons, gathering all cultivators at the Ice Mountain!
If I'm not mistaken, half of the students from Lingqing Academy are with Wanqi Ziye, and the other half are split into two groups. Kongji is leading ten teams, totaling fifty people, while the other group is more scattered. If Kongji's team is heading towards the glacier, they will definitely pass by Wanjue Academy, which is where Jiang He is.
……

Jiang He led a hundred cultivators, bustling about.
Li Ling, who was on lookout duty, quickly spotted other universities.
"Damn it, two groups of cultivators are coming this way, neither of them are wearing school uniforms, I wonder which academy they're from."
After Li Ling returned, Shangguan Linghu, who had been on guard in another direction, also returned:
"Commander, the monster horde is about to reach the first layer of traps, and the cultivators who sprinkled poison powder on the second layer are already in position."
Upon hearing this, Zhong Liyu immediately flew into a rage: "No way, they're pulling this stunt now. Which academy are those two teams from? Now that they're here, we have to deal with both the demons and these cultivators. We don't have three heads and six arms."
“I can set up an array to trap them for a while.” Bai Zhizhou’s tightly closed eyes opened slightly but not fully. His expression was not visible through his blurry glasses.
His lips were pursed into a straight line, and his hand was wrapped in a white bandage from wrist-cutting.
Bai Zhizhou was about to untie the bandage on his wrist when Jiang He pressed down on his left hand:
"No need, you don't need to do anything."
"Bai Zhizhou, you can still trap these people? Wow, I didn't expect that we not only have one big shot in our team, but also another one."
Zhong Liyu asked in surprise.
Long Aotian held his sword, his deep eyes utterly calm.
"I can too."
As soon as Long Aotian finished speaking, the old man Ziheng and his group in his mind began to mutter:
"No, please don't do it! What do you mean 'can' or 'can'? You absolutely mustn't'!"
I sensed it; there are over a hundred people in both teams. What do you think you can fight them with? Your pathetic swordsmanship? Let me warn you, don't burn your mental energy or anything like that. Even with holographic technology, you could turn into an idiot. Don't blame me for abandoning you then!
Heng Yihang was really worried sick. To be honest, he always thought he was very adventurous in his life, but he never expected Long Aotian to be even braver than him.
Without saying a word, they started fighting. It has to be admitted that Long Aotian has extremely high talent in swordsmanship. He deliberately said that Long Aotian's swordsmanship was bad because he didn't want Long Aotian to do something foolish.
After Long Aotian finished speaking, Jiang He shook her head again:
"No need, someone will help us deal with these two teams."
Jiang He was quite troubled by her teammates' eagerness to volunteer. Sometimes, having teammates who are too enthusiastic can be a sweet kind of trouble.
However, she had other candidates to hold off these groups of cultivators.
Jingxu Academy is also located on the mountain and forest map.
It's just a matter of finding one person.
While she herself was alright, Jiang He didn't want her teammates to be in extreme danger.
Jiang He turned on her communicator and, without saying much, made a video call.
Hai Chongkong and Zhu Yi were fleeing for their lives, following behind Ye Qing.
He didn't even dare to glance behind him.
If Hai Chongkong had eyes in the back of his head, he would see swarms of various monsters everywhere he looked, including giant-tailed bees and ant-like beasts...
While frantically fleeing for his life, Hai Chongkong suddenly received a video request from Jiang He.
He paused, then answered the call as he ran.
"Hey, Jiang He."
Jiang He looked at the blurry people and objects in another part of the video; it was the kind of video that couldn't be made clear even with advanced technology.
Upon seeing this, she immediately guessed Hai Chongkong's predicament: Hai Chongkong must have failed to retreat in advance and happened to encounter the monster tide.
Time was of the essence, so Jiang He kept it brief: "Share your real-time location with Long Aotian so he can come pick you up."
Hai Chongkong's golden hair had all flowed up to his hairline at high speed, turning his hairstyle into a completely slicked-back look. Amidst the cacophony of monster noises and a mouthful of wind, he spoke shakily:
"What?! You're asking me what I'm doing?!"
Hai Chongkong didn't quite hear Jiang He's words. He suddenly gasped, "Jiang He~~ I'm running for my life~ I can't hear you~~"
Hai Chongkong elongates the last word of every sentence he speaks.
Jiang He sighed, then decided to mimic Hai Chongkong's tone, raising her voice slightly:
"I know you're running for your life~~ Send your location to Long Aotian~"
He's going to rescue you!
