Ada's crimson robe fluttered around her as she stared at the woman in the black cloud dress with a complex expression on her face.
Jin Ling and Jin Yao gripped their weapons tightly in an extremely tense manner.
Both of them knew just how powerful Helen was.
It was rumored that the triplets could unleash Dao Integration Stage power for a short period of time by using a special spell formation. However, what they didn't know was that the three of them had often sparred with Empress Helen a hundred years ago, and all of them had been beaten to a pulp … and that was when Helen had held back.
If she hadn't held back, they would've died countless times already!
Now that the three of them had surrounded Empress Helen, they were clearly prepared to fight to the death.
"I thought you wouldn't dare to look me in the face." Helen's eyes were like bottomless black pits.
"It is the responsibility of the Four Nine Immortal Sect to defend the Kingdom of the Nine States." Ada gripped her golden dagger tightly as she spoke in a cold but firm voice.
Helen burst into laughter with a hint of mockery. "Don't you find it hilarious that a Blood Tribe mighty figure, the sworn enemy of the human race, would say something like defending the Kingdom of the Nine States?"
"We are now members of the Four Nine Immortal Sect, and we have been acknowledged by the human race," Jin Ling retorted.
Helen heaved a forlorn sigh. "I don't know why you chose to side with An Lin, but now that An Lin is dead, all of you are free, so why do you still want to stay in a human sect? Staying in the Four Nine Immortal Sect will only result in death. If you return to the Blood Tribe, I can use my power to grant you a special pardon … "
An extremely sincere expression appeared on her face as she spoke. "Come back, and I can forgive you …"
Ada, Jin Ling, and Jin Yao's expressions all shifted slightly upon hearing this.
Ada paused momentarily before replying, "Please give us ten minutes to consider."
Helen hesitated momentarily before nodding. "Alright."
Thus, the four of them stood silently in the air, paying no heed to the earth-shattering battle taking place outside.
Jin Ling and Jin Yao seemed to have read each other's minds, and both of them remained silent.
"Helen! Why aren't you fighting? Hurry up and help us kill Emperor Chang Sheng! "Yi Deng yelled in a perplexed manner at the sight of the woman standing in mid-air.
"Ten minutes," Helen replied in an indifferent voice.
Eden: "???"
Yi Deng didn't know what was going on with Helen, but the Kingdom of the Nine States United Army was already at the end of the line, so he didn't mind wasting some time and continued to attack Emperor Chang Sheng.
Ada was quite elated. If the three of them were to battle Helen normally, they would probably only be able to last ten minutes at most. Coupled with the ten minutes they had to think, they would be able to buy the Kingdom of the Nine States United Army twenty minutes in total. Thinking about it, this method was very smart!
Ada silently praised her own delaying tactic.
However … a trace of worry surfaced in her heart.
Could 20 minutes really change anything?
Emperor Chang Sheng was being completely suppressed by Emperor Yi Deng and Emperor Bei Xing, and he had to divert some of his attention to use the formation to defend against some destructive attacks, so it was only a matter of time before he was defeated.
Zhu Xuze and Situ Feng were also entangled by the seven Heavenly Human Tribe Great Generals, and it was difficult to determine who would emerge victorious.
As for the battlefield below, the seventeen million soldiers were fighting against four million cultivators. If they continued to waste time, it would be a massacre. There was no hope for them to turn the tables …
The people in the battle did not deliberately think in this direction. They knew that if they thought in this direction, they would only be left with nothing but despair. All they could do was fight until the very last moment so that the human race would have fewer enemies!
Ten minutes passed.
Time quickly elapsed.
"Time's up. Tell me, what's your choice?" Empress Helen asked as she looked at Ada.
Ada could see that Emperor Chang Sheng was already completely exhausted, and he was holding the formation up with all his might.
Over five hundred thousand of the Kingdom of the Nine States United Army had perished, and most of the remaining soldiers were also beginning to sustain injuries. Six Return to Void Stage mighty figures had also fallen …
One crimson figure after another charged toward the city wall. A series of twisted, inky-black figures danced about on the city wall like a bunch of demons dancing in a frenzy, killing, biting, and singing.
Mo Hai blasted the head of a Soul Formation Stage Blood Tribe mighty figure with a single punch, and the headless Soul Formation Stage Blood Tribe mighty figure's hands were still flailing about in a frenzy, inflicting a few ghastly wounds on Mo Hai's chest.
Lan Yan was usually very smiley, but her expression was now as cold as ice. She transformed into a gust of wind with Soul Crushing Flames revolving around her sword blade, instantly slaying a dozen or so twisted Void Spirit Tribe mighty figures.
Her left sleeve was already completely empty, and blood had stained half of her robe, but she was completely unaware of it.
A dozen or so sect disciples lay dead before Elder Zhou Yu of the Four Nine Immortal Sect, but there were still several dozen people fighting for their lives around him.
He watched as the disciples he was familiar with fell one by one. There was no sadness or joy on his face. He was like a machine, constantly adjusting the distribution of power from all sides. However, the hand that was commanding was faintly trembling.
The outcome seemed to have been decided, but there were almost no deserters among the several million cultivators!
"Have you made a decision? I'm sorry, Jin Ling, Jin Yao … "Ada gripped her dagger tightly.
"What are you talking about, Big Sister? This is my choice as well." Jin Ling smiled.
"It was the Holy Leader who showed us the direction of our tribe, and he taught me the true dao of blood. Even though he's dead, I shouldn't have betrayed him, "Jin Yao chimed in.
An expression of astonishment appeared on Helen's face for the first time.
They refused? They refused?!
After pretending to think for ten minutes, they refused?!
Helen had thought that she would be able to recruit the three generals again, but the triplets pounced toward her without any hesitation … Three pillars of blood erupted into the sky, and the projection of a golden woman appeared in the sky. There was a crimson halo on her head, and her palm came crashing down viciously toward Helen's head!
Helen extended a slender hand toward the heavens to take the attack head-on.
The massive golden palm fell from the sky toward the tiny palm, but it was as if it had struck the hardest object in the world, and the palm faltered before beginning to crack down the middle.
However, Helen's body was also crushed into the ground, and over ten thousand Blood Tribe cultivators who didn't have time to evade were instantly pulverized into mincemeat.
Ada, Jin Ling, and Jin Yao immediately unleashed their combination spell formation again, controlling the golden projection in the sky to pursue Helen down below …
The battle had reached a climax, and countless living beings were dying every second.
Several hundred of Nan Chao City's city walls had already collapsed in several hundred places.
Blood stained the city walls red, and the air was filled with a deathly aura.
The Blood Tribe cultivators were becoming more and more ferocious as they fought. The Void Spirit Tribe cultivators were unfathomably powerful. Some of the skeletons were cackling sinisterly as they continued to swing their swords through the air. Some of the more powerful skeletons were even able to control the bodies of the Kingdom of the Nine States United Army to fight …
The battle was already beginning to become a one-sided affair.
Ten minutes later, Ada, Jin Ling, and Jin Yao had all been defeated by Helen. Her inky-black sleeve wound itself tightly around the three women's bodies, and a terrifying sealing power made it impossible for them to unleash any power.
"You've lost." Helen spoke in an indifferent voice. There were a few wounds on her body, and her snowy-white skin was revealed through the cracks in her dress.
"Emperor Chang Sheng, Zhu Xuze, Situ Feng, and then the entire Kingdom of the Nine States United Army will be wiped out. This is a fate that you can't change." Killing intent began to appear in Helen's eyes. "I had wanted to spare your lives, but it looks like you're all too stubborn, so you can all die now."
Her voice had only just fallen.
In the extremely distant heavens.
A pleasant voice suddenly shook heaven and earth.
"Invaders of the Kingdom of the Nine States.
"Slay them no matter how far away they may be!"
A river of stars came from afar, traversing eight hundred li across the firmament!
