Chapter 3: Wow, this is so cliché.

Sun Liqiu looked toward the distance at the bright red light from the cliff she was standing on.

"Wow, did he actually kill them all with a technique called Flaming Dragon Roar???" she snorted. "That's so fucking embarrassing."

She looked around, trying to find a way toward civilization. Suddenly she paused, squinting her eyes in a certain direction. A familiar energy was growing in the opposite direction of the red light. Sun Liqiu looked back at the red light and then in the opposite direction toward the familiar energy. The distance between the two wasn't very far. She narrowed her eyes.

'Is this gonna be a big scene??? Like one of the scenes in the book…I think I remember something…!!!Oh! OH SHIT! I GOTTA GET THERE FIRST-!!!'Sun Liqiu went toward the familiar energy. She went so fast that no one could see her. She immediately paused in front of a cave with the familiar energy.

The cave was covered with an array formation that would be hard for a normal person to get through. Unfortunately, in the novel, the main character broke through it despite the fact that he was seriously injured from the fight with the masked men. Which is complete and utter bull. Like what kind of main character buff is that? Stupid main protagonist halo. Breaking open her precious formation without even figuring it out. Hmph.

You read that correctly dear readers. Our lovely main character was the one to invent that formation. Although the formation was filled with mistakes it wasn't something a little boy that just started cultivating should be able to break.

Sun Liqiu immediately went through the formation. She went as fast as she could, practically teleporting when she felt the energy from that fucking protagonist getting closer. She set up a stronger formation as she went. At least to slow him down because she knew that his bullshit protagonist aura would just blast right through.

When she reached the end of the array, she put a strong defense key up as fast as she could. It was not her best work but it would hold for a bit at least.

She took a deep breath before turning around. She looked down into the dark passage in front of her before running down the passage.

She had to get there first.

Few minutes before with the Protagonist.

Xu Feng was running low on energy. He had put all his energy into the attack but there were still 3 men following. They were injured but so was he.

Xu Feng held his hand over a stab wound as he ran. He wasn't going to get caught. He was going to be the strongest cultivator in the world. His eyes hardened in determination. He was going to be so strong no one could ever bully him again.

He grunted as he dodged a strike from one of the men following him.

"Is that the best you can do?" Xu Feng sneered. "What a bunch of weaklings! You don't even deserve to be cultivators."

The men were enraged and became more frenzied with their attacks. Xu Feng dodged and kept running while keeping an eye on the men following him.

The men were becoming sloppy as they attacked. Their wounds were slowing them down and in their frenzied state, they would notice as he subtly led them to Eternal Death Cliff. (Author: Listen, I dunno. It was the first few words to pop up in my mind. There are worse names…It could be worse.)

He would end it all there. It was either them or him. Xu Feng gritted his teeth in determination as his wounds ached in exertion. He ran faster trying to get to the cliff as soon as possible when he sensed his stab wound getting worse. It started to ache more and his eyes turned cold, knowing his poison was acting up. He wasn't going to give up. In this world where the weak get eaten, he would not be the prey.

He would make sure it was them.

Back to our MC

Sun Liqiu wanted to die.

Well not literally, but she was bored. She had forgotten that using energy would be so annoying.

She had been running for a while now and hadn't reached the end yet. She wondered how the main protagonist had gotten to the end so fast.

She paused. How had he gotten there so fast? She looked around as her thoughts flew. Her eyes caught on an inconspicuous rock. The very inconspicuous rock that seemed to be mocking her blindness.

Sun Liqiu squinted at it.

Was…was that her teleportation array rock??? The one that she never found after she threw it at-...

She stopped in her tracks. If that was hers and the arrays here were hers then she knew exactly who was here.

Fuck.

She immediately used the teleportation array, destroying it as she went although she knew it probably wouldn't do much to stop the protagonist.

Closing her eyes, she thought to herself,' I'll find you and this time I'll save you.'

Sun Liqiu opened her eyes and ran.
