"Master w.a.n.g, what happened to you?"
"Yeah, what's so weird about this' Soul Dying Town '? Even you were injured …" "
Everyone looked at each other and said,
It was still unknown what Gu Yuan Wu's current situation was. If something went wrong with w.a.n.g Rui's side, then this incident would definitely happen.
"Quiet, all of you …" "Something big has happened on the 30,000-meter mountain peak."
After a long while, w.a.n.g Rui suddenly opened his mouth and said,
Once he said it, there would be no follow-up.
"What do you mean..." Everyone was startled when they heard this.
He saw that w.a.n.g Rui's face was dark, streams of true energy were flowing back, and he was suppressing the urge to vomit blood. It was clear that he could not allocate any of his energy to answer everyone's questions.
Ren Xingtian thought for a moment before replying, "Forget it, let's not disturb his cross-border movements. We should continue to help him stabilize his cultivation base."
"Alright..."
As a result, the crowd was unable to find an answer to their questions. They could only look towards the Heaven Gate, their eyes filled with complicated emotions.
After a moment, someone said,
"Oh right, tell me, with the difficulty of this Successor Disciple Battle, how many people will be able to make it back alive?"
… ….
The raging inferno illuminated the cave thoroughly.
"Little brat, you are lying to me." Gu Yuan Wu shouted with an extremely cold expression.
The b.a.l.l.s of fire then surrounded Ye Feng, condensing into the shape of a sharp arrow. It floated in midair, as if it had stopped.
Once Gu Yuan Wu had the heart to gather so many arrows, Ye Wen would definitely suffer the pain of ten thousand fires piercing his heart.
"So what if I'm lying? Also, you don't need to create such a big battle situation. You should know that killing me will only bring you hundreds of benefits. It might even allow you to directly fall from the Martial Spirit Realm to the Martial Disciple Realm!"
Ye Feng smiled and looked around at the flame arrows. He looked calm and collected, without any fear.
He paused for a moment as his gaze turned sharp, "So, for the sake of showing off to a mere Martial Disciple, you think it's worth it for you to lose an entire realm?"
"You …"
Some of them had the same name while some had a higher interest. It was obvious that Gu Yuan Wu belonged to the latter.
Gu Yuan Wu frowned and after a while, he let out a cold snort: "Alright, good kid. I won't kill you, but don't be too proud. I will withdraw the protection of your family and friends now."
He gave an angry snort, and the fire flared and flapped in the air.
"Then are you not afraid? If Master w.a.n.g saw you, why would he blame you? Aren't you afraid that your relations.h.i.+p with the other masters will become a mess?"
A cold light flashed in Ye Feng's eyes. He looked into the distance and smiled.
What he said was what Gu Yuan Wu thought before.
Gu Yuan Wu humphed, "What Master w.a.n.g, don't bluff. The same words you used to me, Gu Yuan Wu, would still be effective. Don't be too arrogant."
As the sound of his voice faded, a burning flame began to burn in the heart of the fire with him as the center. It gradually dimmed down.
The circle of fire surrounding Ye Xueyi and the others began to recede.
Gu Yuan Wu snickered, "Kid, you're still too green. As long as you act quickly enough, we can settle this before Master w.a.n.g arrives. Tell me, will he believe you, or believe me?"
… ….
At this moment, when Han Yue saw the black flames recede, her beautiful eyes suddenly flashed with a ray of light as she muttered to herself,
"Awesome, sure enough, there are some disagreements between Ye Feng and that Martial Spirit Stage expert." She had already planned to die together. Now that she saw the opportunity, she would naturally not let it go.
A look of insanity appeared on her face as she laughed, "Come, Corpse Ghost. After you gain your freedom, aren't you the first to deal with me? Follow me then!"
Once the black flames were withdrawn …
Hanyue didn't say a word. Her speed was incredibly fast and she suddenly rushed towards Ye Xueyi and the others. The oil-paper umbrella in her hand was s.h.i.+ning with a cold light. It was like a sharp sword, showing off its sharpness.
"I will kill all of you right now to avenge Zhou Feng!"
As for the ghost behind her, when it saw her running away, it immediately followed her. It raised its head and let out a roar as it followed her.
"Da, da."
The ghost corpse's large steps caused a loud bang as it stomped the ground. Soon, there were a lot of footprints on the ground.
Demon Fox and Spiritshadow stood in front, looking as if they were about to face a great enemy. Their beautiful faces flashed with a stern expression.
It would be easy to deal with Han Yue alone, but the problem was that the real opponent was the berserk zombie.
"Ye Feng, this could also be considered as a lesson that you have been proud of." Gu Yuan Wu's voice was cold as he looked at the shocked expressions of Ye Xue Yi and the rest.
In the nick of time,
"Master Ancient Era."
An ancient voice suddenly came from the cave.
"Your actions have truly disappointed me."
"What?!"
Gu Yuan Wu was stunned as if he was struck by lightning.
It was obvious that this voice belonged to Master w.a.n.g Rui.
"Wait, Master w.a.n.g, let me explain this," Gu Yuan Wu's face darkened as he hastily spoke up. He looked around but couldn't find any trace of w.a.n.g Rui.
"Zi Feng greets Master w.a.n.g."
Ye Feng's voice was loud and clear, and his voice was dignified, clearly overshadowing Gu Yuan Wu's voice.
He smiled and continued, "I hope for Master w.a.n.g to make a move and save the other two Master Disciples as well." As he spoke, he emphasized the words' Successor Disciple 'very heavily.
"Of course," w.a.n.g Rui's voice was as low as a bell, "Every true disciple, to my Celestial Sect of Wonders, is a treasure of the future."
The next moment, strands of whirling electric currents turned into strange spots of light and suddenly rose around Ye Xueyi and the others, forming a curtain of lightning that covered their surroundings, making a "Zi Zi" sound.
Han Yue quickly stepped forward. When her attack struck the curtain of light, it was like a clay ox that had entered the sea, disappearing without a trace.
Her expression froze as she still had not figured out the situation. "This …"
As for Corpsemancer, as he rushed forward and stabbed his hand into the lightning barrier, his fingers became numb from the electricity. He retreated several steps before stopping.
The two attacks that were determined to win were quickly dispelled by Master w.a.n.g.
"Scram!"
The thunderclouds churned and dense lightning auras charged towards Han Yue and Corpse Gui like lightning dragons. Master w.a.n.g's attack directly sent them ten feet away. Their entire bodies were paralyzed and they were unable to move for a while.
In this way, Ye Xueyi and the others would be able to escape.
Ye Feng smiled, "Thank you, Master w.a.n.g."
The constantly pulsing blue electric current on the electric s.h.i.+eld dimmed a little.
"Pfft …" Master w.a.n.g, who was standing outside, couldn't help but spit out another mouthful of blood.
As it turned out, after taking the attack from the Corpse Spirit, Master w.a.n.g's side wasn't too good either.
What was even worse was that one of the black clouds was wrapped around the lightning barrier and was absorbing its energy.
Fortunately, w.a.n.g Rui hadn't been around Corpse Ghosts for too long. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
Ye Feng squinted his eyes and saw that something was wrong. "Master w.a.n.g, from the looks of it, you seem to be injured."
Gu Yuan Wu snappily replied, "What do you know? Master w.a.n.g is strong, how could it be possible …"
"This... "Ye Feng, how did you see that I was injured?"
w.a.n.g Rui was stunned for a moment before replying.
"It can't be, this is real. Even Master w.a.n.g was injured," Gu Yuan Wu laughed awkwardly, not knowing what else to say.
"That's right. I came to save you, Gu Yuan Wu, and even I was injured."
w.a.n.g Rui's voice was cold, "I saw that you wanted to abandon those few people's lives as soon as you arrived. Gu Yuan Wu, you've really disappointed me. The most personal grudge between you and Ye Feng is between the two of you, so don't get involved with anyone else. Do you understand?"
"I …" Gu Yuan Wu paused for a moment. Out of respect, he reluctantly replied, "I understand. This kind of thing will never happen again …"
"Oh right, Master w.a.n.g, you still haven't told me why you were injured earlier." Ye Wen stared at the lightning bolt that was flas.h.i.+ng continuously. He knew that one of them must be w.a.n.g Rui's soul.
When he said this, w.a.n.g Rui's voice suddenly changed.
"This... "I hurriedly rushed in here for this reason. The spiritual energy in the entire mountain range has started to change, and there seems to be quite a few black tornadoes moving around everywhere, I'm afraid that something big is going to happen. If I am not careful, some of my soul consciousness was sucked away by the patterns on the formation, which is why I got injured."
"The Whirlwind Formation is everywhere, and there are even so many patterns appearing."
Ye Feng's expression couldn't help but to change greatly.
When he thought of the series of changes that had occurred, he felt as if something had slowly floated out of the water and become clear.
At the same time, Gu Yuan Wu was startled, "So that's how it is. Master w.a.n.g, you've also lost some of your soul consciousness."
"What do you mean, Master Gu? Could it be that the injuries you suffered, including the cries of pain from before, were caused by these Whirlwind Spells?" w.a.n.g Rui's eyes lit up as he asked.
"Is … wailing in pain …" Gu Yuan Wu's heart thumped. There was a trace of trembling in his voice.
He gritted his teeth and looked towards the tip of the leaf.
One must know that after crying out in pain so many times, a large half of it was related to Ye Feng. If one had to blame him, it was his fault for putting a restriction on Ye Feng's soul.
Yet, he couldn't say such shameful words to w.a.n.g Rui …
"More or less," he replied with a wry smile.
At this moment, a clear round of applause rang out beside everyone's ears.
"Hehe, good. Ye Feng, you're quite capable. What kind of luck did you run into? You actually got two Martial Spirits to protect you. But …"
