Chapter 1291: A Massive Opportunity

Xu Xiaolan and the others were petrified upon seeing this.

An Lin! An Lin! Xu Xiaolan threw the lid off the coffin in a frenzy before cradling An Lin up in her arms.

She pressed her slender hands over An Lins chest and pressed down his chest rhythmically as if she was trying to resuscitate him. At the same time, vital energy surged as a pure flame power quickly nurtured An Lins entire body.

Its alright, it was just respiratory arrest. Hes fine now. Xu Xiaolan heaved a long sigh of relief, and a relieved smile appeared on her face as she unleashed a spell technique to clean up An Lins body.

Respiratory arrest? Hong Dou was confused.

It means that he stopped breathing temporarily, Xu Xiaolan explained.

Hong Dou was astonished. Holy sh*t, you almost f*cking killed him!

Xu Xiaolan blushed with embarrassment upon hearing this.

She really had almost killed An Lin

Her relentless, spontaneous movement techniques had thrown An Lin around like a rag doll inside a tumble dryer, and his heart had finally given out on him

A lingering fear welled up in Xu Xiaolans heart at the thought of this.

If An Lin really did die like this, she would probably also die from remorse.

Soon, An Lin began to wake up, and tears welled up in his eyes.

He knew that he had almost become the first man in history to perish from being thrown around on his dao partners back. In that case, they wouldnt even need to get a coffin for him as he had died in a coffin anyway

Its alright now, An Lin, everything is fine

Xu Xiaolan immediately knelt down beside An Lin and stroked his chest as she offered gentle, comforting words.

At this moment, other powerful beings had already begun to charge toward them.

The battle erupted again!

Im just excess baggage here! Just leave me and keep going, An Lin urged.

Xu Xiaolan: No way!

Xuanyuan Cheng: How could we abandon you?

Liu Qianhuan: Dont even think about it! I dont have a habit of selling out my comrades!

Everyone immediately rejected An Lins proposal.

Dont forget that our objective is to fight for the heavenly peaches! This is not a battle of life and death, Ill just be eliminated, and you guys can go on.

If you feel bad about it, you can just give me a few more heavenly peaches when we get back! An Lin persisted.

Xu Xiaolan shook her head with an extremely firm expression. This is not a matter of heavenly peaches. I dont want to see you being pushed around by others in such a vulnerable state. I have to protect you even if it means giving up on all of the heavenly peaches.

An Lins expression faltered upon hearing this, and he stared blankly at the woman before him.

He could see the extremely staunch determination on her face, and he was very touched by her words.

The heavenly peaches didnt matter; she simply wanted to protect him in his vulnerable state

Even though An Lin was a dead weight to everyone, he was still extremely happy that everyone would stand by him and protect him with everything they got.

Xu Xiaolan placed An Lin back into the coffin before turning to Hong Dou. You carry An Lin and stay behind me.

Her movement speed and movement techniques were unbearable to An Lin, so she had to find someone to take care of him. Hong Dou was clearly the best choice.

Hong Dou had been moved by everyones touching display of loyalty to An Lin, and he immediately accepted this duty. Dont worry, Ill take good care of Mr. An Lin!

He placed the coffin on his back before standing up straight and puffing out his chest, as if he was undertaking the most important mission.

They charged toward the cherry blossom forest in the distance again.

It had to be said that their team was an extremely powerful one. They were sweeping through all obstacles, and it was not an exaggeration to say that they were invincible here.

Hong Dou followed behind Xu Xiaolan and was no longer the meat shield. Instead, he was the manual laborer, or for the want of a better term, the sect leaders guardian!

He felt like this occupation suited him quite well. It was quite a prestigious role, and it filled him with a sense of achievement.

He was just running along when a voice was suddenly transmitted into his ear.

Hong Dou, Hong Dou!

Hong Dou shuddered as he traced the voice transmission. Youre the Holy Lord Noodle?!

There was no mistaking that voice; it belonged to the Holy Lord Noodle, the Hall of Creation mighty figure at the Return to Void Pinnacle Stage!

Thats right, its me! Hehe I didnt think you would be with the Four Nine Immortal Sect. Well done The Holy Lord Noodles elated voice sounded alongside the sloshing of its noodle soup.

Hong Dou thought the Holy Lord Noodle was insulting him, and an awkward expression appeared on his face as he transmitted his voice in reply, This is just a temporary alliance, so please dont think too much of it.

Hehe, theres no need to hide things from me. I know that youre just infiltrating the enemy team!

Infiltrating?

Hong Dou was dumbstruck.

Of course! Dont forget what event this is. This is a battle for the heavenly peaches, so what
