Villain: The memory is exposed, the heroine kneels and begs for my forgiveness

Because of that power that came from nowhere, Jiang Zhige now has the strength to fight against the armored skeleton. There is no need to use escape talismans or other methods to force Nangong Rou away.

Nangong Rou looked worried and said anxiously: "But brother, this monster is really too strong..."

Although Jiang Zhige suddenly showed a power comparable to that of the armored skeleton, the previous person who wanted to buy her time to escape had just died. How could she safely let Jiang Zhige face the armored skeleton alone?

Just when Nangong Rou hesitated, the armored skeleton rushed over with a black sword in hand.

Jiang Zhige did not retreat but advanced, holding the spirit sword in both hands and slashing towards the armored skeleton.

In the blink of an eye, people and bones collided with swords dozens of times, and the sound of metal collisions could be heard in the corridor.

Just like mortal swordsmen exchanging blows, there is no brilliant martial arts or spiritual power, only pure light and shadow of the sword.

Even so, both sides were far beyond the Lingwu realm in terms of speed and strength, which made Nangongrou dazzled.

It seems that this is the first time in her life that she has seen such a level of battle that relies solely on strength and speed without relying on spiritual power.

"Rouer, I am confident that I can defeat it. Your presence nearby will only distract me, so leave quickly!"

Jiang Zhige gritted his teeth. He seemed to be able to do it with ease, but in fact he could only barely parry. If Nangong Rou didn't leave, his secret might be exposed.

After hearing this, Nangong Rou hesitated again and again, but decided to turn around and flee.

Although Jiang Zhige is afraid of losing to the armored skeleton, now is not the time to be indecisive.

As Jiang Zhige said, since he is sure to deal with the armored skeleton, Nangong Rou's stay will only be a burden.

When Nangong Rou left, the originally evenly matched situation quickly changed.

Jiang Zhige could barely keep up with his speed, but his strength was far inferior to that of the armored skeleton. He was beaten back and forth.

Jiang Zhige looked ugly. At first, he was indeed on par with the armored skeleton. The problem was that his cultivation level was only in the early stage of Lingwu. After a few rounds of such a high-load battle, his body would be unbearable, but the armored skeleton healed as if there was no consumption.

Fighting makes you braver.

Jiang Zhige does not use martial arts because the martial arts he learned during the body refining period will not have any effect on the armored skeleton, but will consume himself too much.

Fortunately, this battle was not to be crushed. As long as he held on for a while and ensured that Nangong Rou escaped outside the tomb, Jiang Zhige would be able to find a chance to escape.

After dozens of rounds, Jiang Zhige's fight became more and more difficult, the hand holding the spirit sword trembled slightly, and the tiger's mouth was bleeding.

"Ying, it should be almost done, right?"

Jiang Zhige glanced behind him. Nangongrou was in the Lingwu realm after all. After such a long time, it shouldn't be a problem to escape outside the tomb.

Just when Jiang Zhige was about to retreat, the armored skeleton seemed to sense his thoughts and turned around to block the exit.

Jiang Zhige tried to force the armored skeleton back, but unfortunately he was almost exhausted and could not forcefully attack the armored skeleton. Instead, he was cut back five meters with a knife.

Jiang Zhige still wanted to use his body and martial arts to escape, but he saw the armored skeleton stabbing into the ground, black energy surging all over his body, and in just a few seconds, he created a formation to surround the entire tomb.

Jiang Zhige's face turned pale, and despair arose in his heart.

He never expected that a skeleton would have as flexible a fighting mind as a human being, and could even arrange formations in such a short period of time.

Using oneself as the eye of the formation, without any carving techniques, and just by inserting a knife into the ground, one can set up a large-scale trapping formation, which is simply unbelievable.

Now Jiang Zhige's strength is not enough to break through the trap in an instant, which means that he is certain to die.

"Forget it, Rou'er must have escaped."

Jiang Zhige shook his head, not too afraid.

As long as Nangong Rou is still alive, his life doesn't seem that important.

The armored skeleton didn't give him any chance, and his power increased steadily, and he soon reached the Yuan Hai realm.

"Yuan Hai Realm..."

Jiang Zhige smiled bitterly, the realm of turning spirits into spirits was simply beyond his reach.

Originally, he wanted to struggle, but now facing a strong man in the Yuan Hai realm, it would be wiser to simply catch him to death than to struggle.

The armored skeleton roared like a monster and raised the black sword high towards Jiang Zhige.

Jiang Zhige did not hide or block, because these actions were meaningless.

Before dying, he had no fear of death, only reluctance to leave Nangong Rou.

"Rou'er, I have to live a good life without my brother in the future..."

He usually takes care of Nangong Rou too much, which makes Jiang Zhige a little worried about how Nangong Rou will live without him in the future.

But people have to part ways. Even if he doesn't die today, Jiang Zhige will leave Nangong Rou one day, but the time of departure will be earlier.

Just as Jiang Zhige was sighing, a figure suddenly rushed over and pushed him out.

The visitor pushed Jiang Zhige away and tried to dodge. Unfortunately, his speed was too different and he was almost cut in half by the black sword.

Jiang Zhige, who fell not far away, looked dull and couldn't react to what was going on.

The person who pushed him away was none other than Nangong Rou, who should have left the tomb long ago.

Why? He fought with the armored skeleton for dozens of rounds. Why is Nangong Rou still in the tomb?

"I, I knew that my brother was lying..."

Nangong Rou's mouth was bleeding and she was in a daze.

At this moment, her back was not only bruised but her internal organs and bones could already be seen.

If she hadn't been in the Spiritual Martial Realm, she would have become a corpse long ago.

Jiang Zhige suddenly came back to his senses when he heard the sound, and when he saw Nangong Rou's miserable condition, he was almost heartbroken.

"Rou'er!!"

Jiang Zhige ran towards Nangongrou desperately, tears welling up in his eyes like springs.

He clearly had a strength comparable to that of a Taoist realm, but at this moment, he took three consecutive steps and fell down, unable to stand at all.

The armored skeleton did not pursue the victory, but stared at Jiang Zhige and let out a strange and joking laugh.

Jiang Zhige ran to Nangong Rou and wanted to hug her, but when he saw her bloody body, he felt only panic and confusion.

"Rou'er, you'll be fine, you'll be fine..."

Jiang Zhige could only take out the healing elixir tremblingly, and wanted to feed it to Nangong Rou, but as soon as it was brought to her mouth, she spurted out a mouthful of blood.

Nangong Rou showed a sad smile. Her injuries could not be saved by ordinary seventh-grade elixirs, let alone ninth-grade healing elixirs.

"Brother, brother, you always protected me in the past. Occasionally, I would let Rou'er protect you once in a while..."

Nangong Rou was smiling, but she was also in tears just like Jiang Zhige.

She knew she was going to die, but she really couldn't let go of Jiang Zhige, really really couldn't let go.

"Rou'er! Rou'er! Hold on!"

Jiang Zhige's vision was almost blurred by tears. He still did not dare to accept the reality and tried every means to save Nangong Rou.
