After being reborn, all I want to do is run away.

Chapter 26 Yuanhou Wine

After a while, Shen Xu suddenly sensed that something had changed in the white mist he had placed near the waterfall, so he immediately perked up.

Suddenly, a gap appeared in the middle of the waterfall, revealing a dark cave behind it. The three people jumped down from behind the gap and landed steadily on the ground. The gap in the middle of the waterfall closed up quickly before they landed.

"It's behind the waterfall, and it seems to be guarded. This is going to be tricky!"

Shen Xu couldn't help but feel a little discouraged. He had originally thought there would only be a group of monkeys! But looking at the jar in the girl's arms, he couldn't help but have a wicked idea.

"You're just unlucky to have run into me!"

Shen Xu concealed his presence with mist and silently followed behind the three. This place was densely populated with monsters and was not a good place to make a move.

"Senior Brother Yang, Senior Brother Du, thank you so much! If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have known there was such a fun place here! Can you bring me here again next time?" the girl asked with a smile.

“Junior Sister Xiao, this is what we should do. Actually, Crimson Valley is still quite dangerous. It’s better to leave the task of fetching the wine to us,” one of the young men advised.

"What's so dangerous! I didn't see any danger along the way!" the girl said reproachfully.

“Senior Brother Yang, you’re being too cautious. The two of us together are practically unbeatable in the entire Crimson Valley. I’m sure we won’t run into any major problems with Junior Sister along,” another young man chimed in.

"That's true, but it's always better to be safe than sorry. It's best to stay away from dangerous places as much as possible. Besides, I have a feeling that someone is following us. We should speed up. I'm afraid something might happen," Yang Sen said.

"What's there to be afraid of! What kind of tough guys could come to Blood Valley? If anyone dares to mess with us, I'll make sure they taste the power of my fists."

“If it were just the two of us, I wouldn’t be afraid. The key is that Junior Sister Xiao is with us. I’m afraid that if we fight, I won’t be able to protect her.”

"Please rest assured, my two senior brothers, I have my own ways to protect myself when we encounter danger, and I will not hold you back."

"Junior Sister Xiao, that's not what I meant!" Yang Sen hurriedly explained.

"I know, Senior Brother Yang, you're only saying this for my own good," the girl said again.

"Once you're stronger, I promise I'll bring you here again."

"Really?" The girl's eyes lit up with anticipation.

“Of course, Senior Brother Yang would never lie,” Lu Chen replied happily.

Shen Xu followed them all the way but never found a good opportunity to make a move. The two young men were protecting the girl closely from the front and back. If he wanted to get the Yuanhou Wine, he would have to fight three people at the same time.

Moreover, he couldn't quite fathom the strength of one of the young men. If he acted rashly, there would be a great risk, but if he didn't act now, he would miss his chance.

So Shen Xu immediately made up his mind and covered his face, leaving only his eyes exposed.

"Going back, I'm afraid you won't have that chance anymore." Shen Xu's figure appeared in front of the group, and he looked at the three people in front of him with a fierce gaze.

"Who are you, and why are you blocking our way? Do you know that we are disciples of the Flying Cloud Sect?" Yang Sen immediately stepped forward to protect the girl.

"Who I am, go ask me in the underworld!" With a casual wave of his longsword, Shen Xu unleashed a five-tiered wave that shot towards the girl.

"Hiding your head and showing your tail, extremely arrogant, let me see if you have the right to be arrogant."

"Wind and Fire Fist!" Du Chen roared and leaped into the air, then a fist shining with blazing red light slammed heavily towards the five waves.

"Junior brother, be careful!!" Yang Sen realized that the sword strike was extraordinary, so he quickly drew his sword as well, and a crescent-shaped light blue blade of light met the Five Waves.

With the three attacks colliding instantly, a loud bang was heard. First, Du Chen was sent flying more than ten meters away, and Yang Sen's cyan light blade also disintegrated inch by inch.

But the white, arc-shaped wave still flew toward the girl with unstoppable momentum, though its speed had slowed considerably, and the two of them easily dodged it. The remaining white wave gradually dissipated into the air as it receded into the distance.

"Junior Sister Xiao, you go quickly! I'll hold him off. He's after you!" Yang Sen stared intently at Shen Xu, as if facing a formidable enemy.

"Senior brother, I won't leave. Since he came looking for me, as long as you hand me over, he won't do anything to you," the girl said, her eyes filled with tears.

"Hurry! I can't hold him off for long!" Yang Sen said anxiously.

"Overestimating yourself." Shen Xu's disdainful voice rang out, followed by another five-wave slash.

Yang Sen's expression changed drastically. He immediately shielded the girl tightly and said sternly, "Run!"

At the same time, he continuously swung his longsword, sending pale blue wind blades slashing at the white waves before disappearing after colliding with them.

"Senior brother, I'm here to help you! Crimson Flame Fist!" A fiery red figure crashed into the Five Waves like a meteor, and wisps of mist immediately rose up, filling the entire area with a thick fog.

A dark shadow flashed past from the mist.

"Oh no, junior sister!" Yang Sen was shocked.

"A gentle breeze caresses my face!" As Yang Sen swung his sword, the pervasive mist was dispersed by the gentle breeze, revealing a clear view.

Lu Chen collapsed to the ground, the girl standing unharmed beside him, while the powerful figure that sent chills down one's spine had vanished.

"Junior sister, are you alright?" Yang Sen stepped forward and asked with concern.

"Senior brother, I'm fine. Please go and see how Senior Brother Lu is doing." The girl's face was still streaked with tears.

"Okay, let's go together. We don't know if that masked man will come back again, so it's best to be careful."

"Okay! I'll listen to you, senior brother." The girl was now like a frightened fawn, completely devoid of her previous excitement.

After checking Lu Chen's body, Yang Sen breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, he just fainted and is fine!"

"We shouldn't stay here any longer. We need to leave the valley quickly and report this to the elders outside," Yang Sen said in a deep voice.

"Oh no! Grandpa's wine is gone!" The girl panicked.

"It's alright, as long as everyone is safe. It's just a jar of wine; the elder won't mind," Yang Sen comforted him.

"Mmm!" Tears streamed down the girl's face.

Meanwhile, Shen Xu was hiding in the distance, holding the jar, and couldn't help but drool with emotion as he watched this touching scene.

There was no way around it; the wine was just too fragrant. He only took a light sniff, but he felt the vital energy in his dantian leap with joy.

However, seeing that all three of them were unharmed, Shen Xu was relieved. Although he had done many things like murder and robbery in his previous life, what did his past self have to do with his present self?

In this life, he only wants to be a good person.
