Han Qiu's speed was faster than Zhang Ruochen's and thus, she caught up with him immediately.
"We won't be a match for Huo Jingcheng even if we work together. I have already been injured by the Commandery Princess Zhenling severely when I fought against her. I might be even more injured than you." said Zhang Ruochen.
"Then what should we do?"
"Let's run away! Or if we have to, we will have to fight him to the death."
Although Zhang Ruochen and Han Qiu's speeds were very fast, Huo Jingcheng was still faster and was coming closer and closer.
"Phhhf!"
Huo Jingcheng flew in a hurricane. Swinging his arms, another two wind blades appeared.
They couldn't resist the wind blade's power at their present state.
They tumbled to the ground and narrowly escaped Huo Jingcheng's attack.
When they ran out of the forest, they saw thick fog in the air, mutilated ramparts, and dilapidated streets as well as some human and savage beasts' bones.
