Walker Of The Worlds

Chapter 2407  Rescued

While the group was unable to do much to save Lin Mu, there was still someone among them that could help.

~GRRRR~

Little Shrubby who was also falling, forcefully kicked in the air, using the sheer strength of his body to propel himself forward to catch Lin Mu.

~THUD~

"I got him!" Min Ju who was on his back caught onto Lin Mu's body.

"But we still can't stop!" Daoist Chu screamed. "What do we do?"

With every passing second the speed of their fall only increased and their chances of survival started to reduce.

"Can you get the others too?" Min Ju asked Little Shrubby.

~GRRR~

The beast couldn't reply to her but Little Shrubby fully understood and tried doing that.

~WHOOSH~

But the distance between everyone had increased by now and getting everyone didn't seem to be possible.

"Hah!" Crown Prince Shang though managed to inch closed and clung onto Little Shrubby's long fur. 'Why are we unable to use any Qi?' Everyone wondered.

'I can't even take out anything from the storage treasure without Qi.' Crown Prince Feng Shun had a lot of life saving treasure that could have helped them now but they were stuck.

Even Lady Kang's carriage which hung on her wrist was unusable since she herself was unconscious.

"Shit, everyone brace!" Ziran shouted as he crossed his hands in front of him.

But just as the ocean's surface was just a couple seconds from hitting them their vision turned white. The blue ocean disappeared, replaced by a vast white mass.

"Huh?" before they could figure it out, they hit it.

~PUFF~PUFF~PUFF~

Instead of the hard and wet impact they were expecting what they met was a soft and spongy surface.

It was as if they had jumped into a large cotton pad!

"We're fine?" Qiao De couldn't believe their luck.

"What is this though?" Daoist Chu wondered as he stood up.

~SHUA~ Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Their legs that had sank into the soft white surface were automatically pushed out as the surface under them solidified into a firm ground.

"Wait a second… are these…" Min Ju spoke in surprise.

"Clouds." Crown Prince Feng Shun understood.

~SHUA~

It was now that they felt a faint presence appearing behind them. "Who?" Ziran quickly turned around, expecting the worst.

~Thud~thud~

Min Ju and Crown Princess Shang suddenly fell down, the soft fur under them disappearing.

"Ah! What?" Min Ju landed on the firm but comfortable surface and felt no pain other than a bit of a jerk.

The same was the case for Crown Princess Shang and she wondered what happened to Little Shrubby.

~MEW~

Much to their surprise though, the beast in question had shrank down and returned to his kitten form. ~WHOOSH~

The kitten then seemingly jumped into the direction of the presence.

'He's attacking in that form?' they thought at first.

~MEW~

Shockingly enough, the kitten had rushed into the arms of a person.

"Master is not good!" Little Shrubby talked to the person unknown to others.

"Who's that?" they finally observed the person who had appeared.

"A woman?" they noticed.

It was a woman wearing a large cloak around her, but hints of her green robe could be seen behind them. Her face was covered in a veil and couldn't be fully made out, but the fiery red hair that flowed behind her let them know that it was a great beauty.

"Let me take a look." The woman spoke, her voice mesmerizing. It was like the twinkling of bells or the gentle babble of a stream. Everyone that heard it couldn't help but feel relief though they didn't know why.

"W-Who are you?" Crown Prince Feng Shun asked.

But she didn't respond to him and simply stepped forward to check on Lin Mu. She placed a hand on his chest and assessed his condition with her immortal sense.

Upon doing that though her eyes went wide.

"What did he do?!" The woman asked as a wave of aura was released from her.

~HUALA~

The pressure she exuded was massive and immediately made everyone kneel down from it. 'Again?' Qiao De couldn't help but smile wryly as he was forced to experience the same thing again. But this time, he felt a burning gaze from the woman. Not just him, everyone felt it and knew that she was not weak at all.

'This is even stronger than father…' Crown Prince Feng Shun felt a headache as he averted his gaze from her.

He felt as if his head would explode if he continued to watch her. There was also a sense of inferiority that he felt right now that he had not felt before.

It was as if the person standing before them was no person but a god!

"He saved us." Min Ju answered quickly, feeling an authority from the woman that was inexplicable to her. The beauty and dignity that the woman had was also rather great and even Lady Kang seemingly lacked in front of her despite the fact that her face was hidden.

She even wondered if people would faint upon seeing her face from the sheer beauty.

~MEW~

It was then that Little Shrubby meowed a few times, seemingly explanation things to her. 'Little Shrubby knowns her, so is she perhaps a friend of Daoist Lin Mu's?' Crown Princess Shang and the others wondered.

Crown Prince Feng Shun on the other hand wondered who this person was before a thought appeared in his mind.

'It can't be her, can it?' Crown Prince Feng Shun almost fell over. "Celestial…" he uttered.

Hearing his words, everyone felt their minds going blank.

They remembered that Lin Mu had a Celestial as his backing and quickly put the two and two together.

"Are you… The one who helped my niece?" Crown Prince Feng Shun asked carefully.

It was clear that the person in front of them was none other than the Saintess!

She stayed silent for a bit as she listened to Little Shrubby's explanation and finally looked at the others.

"Tell me more on the way." She said lightly before snapping her fingers.
