Cornered by two Qi Cultivators at the fourth level and six other Cultivators, Chen Dengming was so scared that he nearly lost his nerve. After escaping the encirclement, he dashed off madly and ran a great distance.
Not until he had repeatedly confirmed that no one was following him, did he suddenly turn around and speed off in another direction.
After doing this back and forth several times, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. He squatted halfway on the ground, panting heavily. At this moment, his sweat was pouring out like a burst dam, emitting a stream of hot white steam in the cold weather.
"Huff——huff——huff——"
Chen Dengming gasped for breath, listening to his heart pounding fiercely. He patted the Golden Silkworm Gu that he had been hiding in his bosom, which he planned to use only in critical situations to save his life.
With a 'swoosh', the Golden Silkworm buzzed and flew out, circling around him as if comforting him not to panic.
