Chapter 932 - Arrival
This was none other than the patriarch of the Yama’s Floating Mountains’ Wei Family, Wei Daoyuan.0
Only he knew why Ye Yu was so upset.0
Three hundred years ago, he’d worked with her to set a trap in the forbidden ground deep within Yama’s Floating Mountains and have a Thousand-Faced Ghost Monkey impersonate him.0
They’d left behind a piece of Mother and Child Psychic Jade.0
And not long ago, Ye Yu had sensed someone activating it. She immediately realized what this meant: Su Xuanjun had returned!0
At the time, even Wei Daoyuan had been overcome with excitement and eagerness.0
Who’d have thought that the developments in the Dark Capital would sever all paths to the outside world?0
“The heavens never sever all paths?” Ye Yu whispered. “Little Wei, do you really think we have any hope of getting out of this alive?”0
She looked into the distance.0
The tear through the dome of heaven was known as a Rift Barrier.0
It was a line of defense trapping the terrifying entities lurking in the distant darkness outside.1
But it was already showing signs of imminent collapse.0
When their defenses broke, the ten or so Emperors who remained would have nowhere left to run. They’d have no choice but to fight the demons until the bitter end.0
“I don’t know whether there’s any hope of survival or not, but I won’t give up until the very end,” Wei Daoyuan said with conviction.0
Ye Yu nodded but said nothing.0
Suddenly, the boundless sound of war horns resounded from the distant darkness, accompanied by the low beat of drums. The sound shook heaven and earth.0
Immediately after, dozens of terrifying demonic figures charged toward the Rift Barrier.0
“It’s begun again!” someone said gravely.0
The demons had similarly assailed their base on numerous occasions over the past few weeks.0
All of them were at least comparable to Imperial Realm experts, and some were even comparable to Profound Serenity Emperors.0
To ensure that the Rift Barrier held, they had no choice but to emerge and fight the demons and evil spirits head-on.0
It had only been a little over a month. Although they’d held the barrier thus far, more than ten of their comrades had fallen in battle already.0
But now, the demons were attacking once more!0
“Dammit! I’m going to take those scum down!” The tall, stalwart man repairing his sword rose. Rage and murderous intent billowed around him.0
“Me too,” said the white-haired woman who, moments prior, had been drinking in silence. She set her jug on the ground, then slowly rose to her feet. Her murderous intent soared into the heavens.0
“Both of you should stay behind; your wounds are too severe. Let me and Ol’ Yin go instead,” a man in white said gravely.0
He then looked at the middle-aged man gripping a bone flute, who nodded his agreement.0
The frequent battles they’d fought over the past several weeks had left all of them injured to varying degrees.0
Even worse, they’d already used up almost all of the recovery medicine they’d brought with them!0
“I’ll go with you,” said Ye Yu, getting to her feet.0
All of the grief and melancholy had disappeared from her face, replaced with tranquility and utter dignity.0
Her bright, clear eyes shone with sharp, unsettling murderous intent.0
“Wait!” Wei Daoyuan’s expression shifted. “There’s something not quite right about the situation this time.”0
The others looked over.0
There, in the distant darkness, they saw a continuous succession of terrifying evil spirits emerge. Each had a monstrous, ferocious aura.0
“It seems every last one of those scum have crawled out of their lair!” The tall, stalwart man gasped.0
The others’ expressions shifted, and their hearts sank.0
“Everyone, we’d best fight together!”0
The middle-aged scholar sighed.0
All of them could tell that, unless they went all out, the Rift Barrier was sure to be destroyed. If that happened, they’d have nowhere left to retreat!0
“Let’s go!” The white-haired woman was the first to take action.0
She blurred into a streak of misty azure light and shot through the air like flowing water.0
When the others saw this, they gnashed their teeth and followed her.0
“Miss Ye Yu, it’s been my honor to fight alongside you,” said the swordsman in white. When he looked at her, his expression was a bit complicated.0
But then, he flashed her a dashing smile, hefted his sword, and shot toward the distant battlefield.0
Ye Yu pursed her lips. Without another word, she reached out, took her lamp, and stepped into the air.0
Wei Daoyuan followed immediately behind her.0
More than ten Emperors took action simultaneously, crossing the Rift Barrier and charging toward the swarm consisting of practically every demon and evil spirit in this layer of purgatory.0
Boom!0
A grand battle broke out, and heaven and earth dimmed.0
Incomparably dazzling radiance interwove with the power of numerous treasures, stirring up the landscape. It was like a battle between deities.0
Deafening roars and the impacts of clashing treasures rang out, echoing in all directions.0
But there were just too many demons, at least forty of them, and even the weakest was comparable to a Profound Illumination Emperor. The strongest were capable of fighting toe-to-toe against Profound Serenity Emperors.0
The battle had only just begun, but Ye Yu, Wei Daoyuan, and the others were thoroughly surrounded. They were in dire straits.0
Several of the Emperors were severely injured to begin with. Surrounded like this, they could well meet their ends at any time. 0
Suddenly, a thin old man in black burst into laughter. “Everyone, I’ll be leaving first. If there’s a next life, I hope to get the opportunity to fight alongside you all once more!”0
His injuries were far too heavy, and he didn’t want to drag the others down. Thus, he planned to burn his cultivation base and take as many enemies down with him as he could.0
“Wait!” Ye Yu suddenly appeared beside him, grabbed him by the lapels, and flung him out of the battlefield.0
“Want to fight without regard for your life? Fine, but there’s no rush to do it now. Go back to camp. Quickly!” Ye Yu’s extraordinarily beautiful face was utterly dignified, and her tone left no room for argument.0
“I…” The thin old man’s lips quivered, and the rims of his eyes reddened.0
But in the end, he gnashed his teeth and returned to their camp.0
Before long, someone else reached their limit.0
It was the white-haired woman. Blood poured from her mouth, and her lustrous skin was cracked, split, and gushing blood.0
But she didn’t care about her wounds. Her entire body surged with murderous intent, and she fought like mad with no thought for her own survival.1
Boom!0
Blood-red lightning exploded into being, transforming into a crimson spear and thrusting toward her.0
The white-haired woman was locked in combat with several demons, and she couldn’t block in time.0
As she sensed the spear’s approach, the severely injured woman smiled bleakly.0
Bang!0
But then, a streak of dazzling golden light shattered the blood-red spear as if it were made of rotten wood.0
At the same time, the white-haired woman felt someone grab her and pull her out of the battlefield. “Go back to camp. Don’t let our sacrifices be in vain!”0
It was Ye Yu! She was covered in blood, making it obvious that she was already injured, but her expression was utterly calm.0
The white-haired woman froze, then shouted, “Ye Yu, how many of us can you save from this calamity? And how long can you last?”0
“I’ll just save as many as I can, and hold out as long as I can,” said Ye Yu. Even as she spoke, she fought on with all her might. “Even if I fall in the end, I won’t let you die before me.”0
She said this with calm equanimity and determination.0
The Emperors locked in combat with the throngs of demons couldn’t help but feel moved. Waves of emotion swept through their hearts.0
Whenever fighting broke out, Ye Yu was sure to lead the charge, and she was always the last to retreat!0
No one had asked her to do this. She\'d taken it upon herself.1
As a result, these Emperors had long since taken her as their leader, and they couldn’t help but respect her.0
If you can’t hold on, I’ll die before you, the white-haired woman thought to herself.0
She turned and left the battlefield. As soon as she returned to camp, she started treating her wounds.0
In the time that followed, one Emperor after another reached their limit. Without exception, Ye Yu saved them and sent them back to camp.0
However, this only increased the pressure she was under.0
In the end, only she, Wei Daoyuan, and Lu Xing remained. Furthermore, they were thoroughly surrounded, and their injuries piled up…0
They couldn’t even retreat!0
Just seeing this made their companions’ hearts clench.0
Suddenly, Lu Xing said with a smile, “Miss Ye Yu, you and Fellow Daoist Wei should leave. It’ll take that riffraff a long time to break the Rift Barrier. That’ll give you a chance to recover some of your energy.”0
The man in white was covered in blood. His wounds were quite severe.0
But his expression showed no sign of fear.0
“Let me clear a path of blood for you to escape!” Lu Xing took a deep breath, and his eyes blazed with determination.0
His sword buzzed, and the blade shone with dazzling light, as if it were on fire.0
Ye Yu furrowed her brow.0
She wanted to stop him, but it was already too late.0
The demons had her thoroughly surrounded. She no longer had the chance to stop him.0
But it was then that—0
“Our family’s Little Leaf doesn’t need you to fight to the death on her behalf.”0
A clear, icy voice rang out.0
The entire stretch of heaven and earth shook, and the blazing Burning Silence Ruler bore down from above.0
Boom!0
The force of this blow sent the demons surrounding Little Leaf staggering backward.0
Two of them died on the spot, and their souls scattered.0
One attack had broken Ye Yu’s encirclement!0
This tyrannical strike shook the entire battlefield.0
“Err…” Lu Xing had only just been prepared to go all-out when his eyes widened.0
Wei Daoyuan couldn’t help but gasp.0
Ye Yu, however, was stunned. Her gaze was uncharacteristically vacant.0
A graceful figure with snowy skin and an icy, majestic bearing had appeared beside her.0
“Your Excellency You Xue, you… what are you doing here?” Ye Yu asked in disbelief.1
“I didn’t come alone,” You Xue said softly.0
She’d only just said this when——0
Boom!0
Heaven and earth trembled violently.0
Numerous distant demons exploded on the spot, dying where they stood.0
Ten terrifying lifeforms appeared on the battlefield, including the White Bone Emperor, Divine Monarch Falling Star, and Evil Emperor Red Silk.0
Each had a vicious, terrifying aura. Their majesty spread throughout heaven and earth!0
The other demons were stunned. All of them retreated further away and watched uncertainly.0
The brutal grand battle came to a brief lull.0
Then, beneath the onlookers’ disbelieving gazes, a young man approached on the back of a Radiant Void Beast.
