C871 A Dead End
"Forget it, let's go. There's no point in continuing the search other than wasting time." Big Stone's tone could not hide his disappointment. Ye Bufan shook his head slightly. The wisest choice now was to give up. If they continued to search, they would not find anything. It was very likely that they would cause big trouble.
Taking a deep breath, Ye Bufan controlled his body to rise, but his body didn't move at all. Ye Bufan's expression turned ugly. He had forgotten that he could only sink in the pond water. It would be troublesome if he couldn't rise up. He wouldn't be able to leave even if he wanted to.
"Summon the Scarlet Flame Flower, and you will be able to return to the ground." Big Stone said in a depressed tone.
Ye Bufan hurriedly summoned the Scarlet Flame Flower. When the slowly rotating Scarlet Flame Flower appeared, Ye Bufan was pleasantly surprised. He did not even need to deliberately exert strength. His body was actually slowly rising. And as time passed, his speed became faster and faster. At this rate, he should be able to return to the ground very soon.
His speed was beyond Ye Bufan's expectation. Very soon, he saw a monster wandering around in the pool. Ye Bufan was extremely excited. He didn't expect that the Scarlet Flame Flower would have such a great effect.
Ye Bufan's expression was solemn as he adjusted his body. Although he wasn't attacked by the monster, it was unbelievable that everything went smoothly, but a fierce battle was inevitable once he returned to the ground. If Ye Bufan wanted to leave, he would definitely be stopped by Shen Cheng and his siblings. Although Ye Bufan had the confidence to defeat the three of them, his confidence was only his confidence. He didn't have much confidence in defeating them.
Gradually, they got closer and closer to the ground. Ye Bufan could vaguely feel the faint Qi of Shen Cheng and his sister. He couldn't help but feel a jolt in his mind. The people who were chasing them didn't come. He had to take advantage of this good opportunity to escape. Otherwise, it wouldn't be so easy to escape later.
After an hour, Ye Bufan was only a dozen meters away from the surface of the water. Ye Bufan raised his head and could clearly see the sky above. He was delighted in his heart. Just as he was about to increase his speed, a few powerful auras suddenly appeared in the distance. Ye Bufan's expression changed, and he hurriedly stopped rising. He controlled his body to stop about ten meters away from the surface of the water.
Shen Cheng and his sister's cries could clearly be heard from above. Ye Bufan frowned. The situation that he was most worried about had finally happened. The person who was chasing after Shen Cheng and his siblings had finally appeared. It wasn't just the weak ones. Just a few powerful auras alone had made Ye Bufan feel that he was no match for them. He was afraid that he wouldn't have a high chance of winning in a real fight.
Hiding inside was a wise choice. The three of them would have to deal with it. As for whether the three of them would live or die, Ye Bufan was too lazy to ask. He was concerned about whether he would be able to escape successfully.
He couldn't see the scene on the ground, but fortunately, he could still hear the sound. Shen Cheng and his siblings were in a very bad situation. It seemed like they were in a very bad situation.
"Haha, let's see where you can run to this time!" A dark and fierce voice came from above. The wild laughter made people feel disgusted. Even though he didn't intend to get involved in this, Ye Bufan couldn't help but frown. He had the impulse to beat the owner of the voice.
At this moment, he heard Shen Cheng angrily say, "Why are you dragging us and not letting us go? We have already given up on what we should give up. Don't tell me you want to force us into a dead end?"
Ye Bufan silently sighed. Perhaps it was because he sympathized with the weak. He really wanted to rush out and help the three siblings, but when he thought about how powerful the enemy was, Ye Bufan quickly extinguished this thought. Before he acted as a hero, he needed to see if he had the strength to do so. If he were to get himself involved, it would be troublesome.
The two groups of people on top had already accumulated a deep grudge. They didn't waste any time talking and just started fighting.
After a while, Shen Chen, who was the weakest among them, screamed. Then, she shouted at the top of her lungs, "Sister!"
Ye Bufan shook his head. Shen Cheng and the other two were too weak compared to the pursuers. If nothing unexpected happened, they would die today.
At this moment, there was a splash, as if someone had fallen into the pond. Just as Ye Bufan raised his head in surprise, a man in red clothes fell down from the sky. Ye Bufan didn't have time to react. Besides, it was very inconvenient to move in the water.
Ye Bufan could not dodge in time, so he quickly raised his hands and supported the person who fell down. Fortunately, there was some resistance in the water. Otherwise, Ye Bufan would not have been able to receive it so easily.
Eh, it was actually her?
When he saw the person's face, Ye Bufan was shocked. It was actually Shen Chen. He could faintly hear faint breathing sounds. Shen Chen was actually still alive. Ye Bufan smiled bitterly in his heart. The more he was afraid of trouble, the more he could not avoid it.
However, Shen Chen wouldn't be able to wake up in a short period of time, so she shouldn't attract the attention of the higher-ups. Thinking of this, Ye Bufan secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
Who knew what he was afraid of would come? With two splashes, two people actually jumped into the water. At the same time, two hoarse cries sounded, "Younger sister!"
Damn it, when he heard these two voices, Ye Bufan's expression changed dramatically. He cursed in his heart. These two guys actually came down as well. The pursuers above would definitely jump down. If that was the case, he would be dragged into the trouble. Life and death would become unpredictable.
"Have you recovered?" When Shen Cheng and Shen Cheng saw Ye Bufan, they were obviously stunned for a moment. Then, they revealed a surprised expression and said with excitement.
Ye Bufan smiled bitterly. This time, he would not be able to escape from trouble. He could only helplessly say, "I just came out from below and saw your sister falling down from above. What happened up there? Why did you come down as well?"
He deliberately pretended not to know anything. Ye Bufan didn't want the two of them to see through him.
Shen Cheng didn't notice the loophole in Ye Bufan's words. He said in a deep voice, "There are a few guys up there who are haunting us. Shen Chen was seriously injured by them. We were worried about our sister's safety, so we jumped down as well."
Plop! Plop! Plop!
Ye Bufan and the other two's faces changed drastically at the same time. Shen Zhong said with a trembling voice, "Not good. They are chasing us."
Unexpectedly, Shen Cheng sneered. A ruthless expression flashed across his brows as he coldly said, "What are you afraid of? As long as they dare to come down, I will make sure that they will never return and hide in the bottom of the pond."0
"But if Big Brother does that, we will also die..." Shen Zhong said with a frightened expression. However, he was only halfway through his sentence when he was about to be killed by the furious Shen Cheng.
"Bastard, don't tell me you are afraid of death? We have been chased by them and are now hiding like rats. So what if we can survive? Have you forgotten how she died? Have you forgotten who did it? Damn it. Other people can be afraid of death, but you can't. Do you understand?"
Shen Cheng said with a hoarse voice. His emotions were extremely agitated. The fear on Shen Zhong's face had disappeared without a trace. He said with an incomparably tender expression, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't be afraid. I should have gathered my courage to avenge her. This is my vow. I shouldn't have forgotten it. "
"Back then, she chose you, so you should shoulder this responsibility. Don't worry, I will too, because I once loved her"
Listening to the conversation between Shen Cheng and Shen Zhong, Ye Bufan finally understood who the two of them were talking about. It turned out that both of them fell in love with a woman, and this woman chose Shen Zhong in the end. For some unknown reason, this woman had died in the hands of the pursuers above.
Ye Bufan felt bitter in his heart. Initially, he planned to bring the three of them down to the bottom. After all, the pool wasn't small, and the color of the pool was a little thicker. It could block people's vision, and perhaps, they could hide somewhere and survive this crisis.
"You take Shen Chen and leave first. Don't worry, they won't chase after you. I believe they should think that Shen Chen is dead. After killing the two of us, they should leave." Shen Cheng said with an expressionless face. Shen Zhong also nodded his head. It seemed like the two of them were going to fight to the death with the pursuer.
Ye Bufan silently sighed. To be honest, he really admired the two of them. Putting aside the reason, they were able to muster up the courage to face death. This kind of person was enough to make anyone admire them.
However, he didn't intend to stay, although he really wanted to save the two of them. However, his strength didn't allow him to. Ye Bufan felt that he should leave with Shen Chen. Letting one of the three of them live was already a great deed, and he had to take the risk of being discovered.
"Alright, take care of yourselves!"
Ye Bufan was not a hesitant person. He picked Shen Chen up and controlled his body to sink. After Ye Bufan left, Shen Cheng and Shen Zhong looked at each other. They could clearly see a strange smile on each other's face.
Unfortunately, Ye Bufan had no idea that he had secretly stepped into a conspiracy.
The sound of fighting could be faintly heard from above. Along with two miserable screams, Ye Bufan's facial expression turned serious. Shen Cheng and his brother were probably dead. He hoped that the pursuers would be able to retreat.
Ye Bufan carried Shen Chen, who was breathing weakly, and dived into the pool once again. With the help of the Scarlet Flame Flower, the sinking speed was very fast.
After reaching the bottom of the pool, Ye Bufan did not hesitate at all. His body sank into the soil. Only his head was exposed, and Shen Chen was the same. Unfortunately, the color of the pond water was very light at this time. It was only slightly red. It was not the kind of blood that completely blocked one's line of sight for the first time.
He hoped that they would not come down.
Ye Bufan waited anxiously. However, after a while, he didn't see anyone. Instead, he heard a familiar and strange cry.
Wah! Wah!
Ye Bufan's expression changed drastically. Although it was the same cry from a monster, this time, he could faintly feel the violence in the voice, as if the monsters had been enraged. They had fallen into the frenzied state of tearing everything apart, and were about to start a ruthless massacre.
What was even stranger was that the pond water quickly turned blood-red, and Ye Bufan's eyes became blood-red. It had completely lost its effect. Ye Bufan was shocked. He had been hoping that the color of the pool water would be a little heavier just a moment ago. But now, he was in a state of shock.
"Not good. They have been infuriated. Dammit! I have already pacified them just now, but now, their will to kill has been awakened by the fresh blood."
In his mind, Big Stone cried out in alarm. Ye Bufan's facial expression changed dramatically. He understood who Big Stone was referring to.
