CEO's Wife, Please Wait

The falcon moved as fast as lightning and sent out a heavy roundhouse kick towards the rock wall. This fierce strike landed right in the center of the six openings on the rock wall.

At this moment, the rock wall had long been filled with cracks, and was on the verge of crumbling. Now, with the addition of this heavy kick from the Eagle Condor Technique, the rock wall could no longer withstand this immense force, and with a dull cracking sound, it turned into small pieces of rock and soil.

"Bang!"

In the next moment, a loud sound rang out once again, and this time, it was actually the incomparably loud sound of water.

Who knew how deep this hot river that had been buried for who knows how many years? In the past, the water pressure of the hot river and the rock wall had balanced each other out, thus they were safe and sound. But now, that thin rock wall had already been destroyed by the Falcon's law, the strong water pressure had instantly found an opening through the boiling heat flow, and burst out of the cave with an unimaginable force.

The strong water pressure caused the boiling water to be like a white water dragon, rushing straight towards the Falcon's Arts that was standing in front of him.

Not to mention the fact that the water in the hot river below was almost 100 degrees' worth of boiling water. If the water inside the river were to be washed away by the heat wave, not to mention breaking the bones, just the boiling water's heat would be enough to seriously injure a person.

The falcon clearly understood the danger involved. It abruptly turned its body in the air, forcefully moving its body a short distance back, then turned around and immediately flew backwards. Its body was as nimble and agile as a dragonfly on the surface of a lake, unexpectedly dodging the first stream of boiling water that was ejected from the cliff wall by just a hair's breadth.

"..." "You!"

Seeing the Falcon's Art charge out from the life reaping heat flow, Lu Qiran's tightly furrowed brows finally relaxed, his previously pale and abnormally pale face had regained some color, and his tired and weak face had a look of relief.

In the next moment, Lu Qiran's relieved expression froze on his face.

An ominous rumbling sound could be heard as the cracks on the wall suddenly widened. The gushing heat wave completely destroyed the half-destroyed wall, and the rushing heat wave once again engulfed the Falcon's technique like a tsunami.

"No!"

Seeing the Solitary Falcon's body being wrapped up in the heat wave, Lu Qi Ran's heart suddenly trembled, and she couldn't help but let out a cry. Her pitch-black eyes were no longer filled with the coldness and indifference from before, but instead, they were filled with reluctance and worry.

At this moment, she was no longer the world-shaking and feared golden female assassin, but a fragile woman who needed someone else to rely on. It was unknown when, but Lu Qiran's vision was starting to blur. No one knew if it was because of the scorching water mist that was rising up to the sky in the cave, or because this was the first time this female assassin had helped a man …

At the same time, the Eagle Trials that were surrounded by a wave of heat was not easy to deal with. Despite his agility, he was still unable to escape from the water pressure. In addition, the dense and scorching water vapor that surrounded them was almost suffocating the falcons. Even though his perseverance was several times greater than an ordinary person's, he couldn't help but reveal an expression of pain as he frowned.

The people that I, the falcon, am determined to leave behind, even the King of Hell cannot take them away! How could a dignified seven foot man like me, a falcon, be defeated by such a trifling hot river!

As he thought of this, the Eagle Triad suddenly became angry! If he was defeated by this boiling water, what qualifications did he have to talk about fate and fight against the King of Hell to save Lu Qiran?

With a twist of his body, his body tightened up like a bowstring, unleashing all of the energy in his body to rush forward and break the steel-like screen of boiling water.

"You! "You …"

In the face of this sudden series of unexpected turn of events, Lu Qi Ran's mind could not help but be in a daze. Even though she had been a decisive killer, she was feeling relieved when she was weak. She couldn't help but be shocked and speechless when she saw the sudden change.

"What are you waiting for!" "Get on the ship quickly!"

Seeing that Lu Qilan had not recovered from the shock for a while, she became anxious, not caring about the fact that his body was still emitting white smoke, she extended her left hand and grabbed Lu Qiran's right arm, bringing her with her as she jumped onto the hovercraft she had prepared earlier, her whole body not hesitating or stopping in the slightest.

When the two of them sat on the hovercraft, they were finally able to breathe a little bit more. Watching the hot water below slowly lift the hovercraft up, both Lu Ran and the Falcon's decision were both relieved.

"You are, using the hot river water below!"? Lu Qilan sat on the hovercraft as she looked down at the steaming hot water. She was slightly surprised, before looking towards the falcon as she thanked him, "This time, I really have to thank you."

"There's no need to stand on ceremony. I've rushed through so many things at the same time. Besides, I'm helping myself, hehe." The falcon forced a smile, then waved at Lu Qi Ran.

It was only at this point that Lu Qiran realised something was amiss. As an assassin, his intuition was telling him that the man in front of him was hiding something.

Then, Lu Qilan took a closer look and discovered that both his hands had become red and swollen from the previous boiling water. There were even some places with quite a few blisters. His entire body seemed to be emitting hot steam, and in that state, even if he didn't die, he would at least shed a layer of skin. No matter how strong this man was, he would definitely still be unscathed in that situation.

"You … are you hurt?" Lu Qi Ran looked at the burned Eagle Mantra with a hint of worry and pain in his eyes. He struggled to pull his weak and sickly body closer to the Eagle Mantra, attempting to roll up his sleeves. "How's your injuries?" Let me see! "

However, Lu Qi Ran's actions had broken the balance of the small hovercraft, causing it to sway in the boiling water.

"Hey!" What are you trying to do! " Seeing Lu Qilan's actions, the small hovercraft started to shake. It could not help but anxiously shout out a warning to her, "This is the boiling water below!" "If you capsize the boat, none of us will survive!"

As if she had just awoken from a dream, Lu Qiran stopped moving as if she had just awoken from a dream. With a gloomy expression, she retreated, continuing to sit unmoving on the hovercraft.
