Long Qing's face turned cold as he watched Ye Hongyu brush her divine robe. His eyes turned even darker until they lost all signs of life. The greedy and cold aura of Nirvanic Extermination in the gravel by the lake grew thicker.
However, in this cold world, there was always a ray of light that could not be erased.
It was a ray of light with a strong smell of blood. It came from the blood-red divine robe.
The sleeves of the divine robe danced by the lake. Every time the horn of the robe moved, a gust of wind with a strong smell of blood and holiness would attack the vortex formed by the aura of Nirvanic Extermination.
The strong wind was really like the moss-covered stones in the You Prison of the West-Hill Divine Palace. It continuously entered the whirlpool, like lake water falling from the sky into the ground. It shook the surrounding Qi of Heaven and Earth, causing it to tremble and escape in all directions.
Countless violent roars sounded in the quiet lake. Affected by Long Qing's gray eyes and Ye Hongyu's mighty attack, the lake water seemed to be boiling. The fish that were hiding in the depths of the lake either fainted or died. They gradually floated up and piled up on the surface of the water in a pile of pale white.
The forest further away did not escape the terrifying impact of the countless collisions of auras. The thousand-year-old branches that stretched out to the surface of the lake broke and the trees shook uneasily. The withered yellow leaves that were left floated weakly into the air. No one knew if they would fall into the lake or be crushed into pieces by the wind.
A few cold-resistant magpies curled up their tail feathers in fear. They desperately flapped their wings and flew far away. However, in order to survive the difficult winter in the Wilderness, they had already eaten too much and became too fat. They could not increase their speed at all. Therefore, they could not escape the aftermath of the battle between the two powerhouses. They fell to the ground and died.
…
…
There were countless tiny wounds on Ye Hongyu's body. Countless thin streams of blood flowed out from those wounds and seeped through the light divine robe before slowly dripping to the ground.
Soaked in blood, the divine robe appeared even redder. It was like a red flower that had been washed by dew. It was breathtakingly beautiful. The wet divine robe stuck to her body. It was breathtakingly beautiful and extremely alluring.
Her face was a little pale, but it was still beautiful and moving. After such a great battle, there was not a speck of dust or blood on her delicate skin. Her eyes, in particular, were abnormally bright, yet they seemed so calm. It formed a clear contrast with her divine robe that was dripping with blood and her alluring body.
She was covered in blood, but she was still calm and beautiful. This meant that she was absolutely powerful.
On the gravel ground by the lake, dozens of fallen knights were seriously injured. Their blood dyed the stones beneath them red.
Long Qing knelt on one knee. His sweaty hair stuck miserably to his forehead. The silver mask on his face was lost somewhere, revealing his badly burned cheek.
Ye Hongyu walked forward slowly.
With every step she took, more blood flowed out of her body. However, her expression did not change. It was as if she could not feel the pain. It was as if there was an endless amount of blood in her body that could be shed.
She walked towards Long Qing and said, "You are indeed much stronger than before. I am very surprised that you did not manage to kill Ning Que in front of the Red Lotus Temple. However, it is a pity that you are still not as strong as me."
Long Qing raised his head with difficulty. He looked at the blood-red robe that was getting closer and closer. He looked at his somewhat tragic face and revealed a strange smile. For some reason, he did not tell Ye Hongyu about the strange things that had happened to Ning Que during the battle in the autumn rain at the Red Lotus Temple.
"I have no interest in the Seat of Heavenly Black Jade now. In fact, you really do not need to pay such a high price to abandon your subordinates and take the risk to kill me alone."
He said as he panted, still wearing a strange smile on his face.
Ye Hongyu walked to a few feet away from him and said, "People like me will not believe that you are so depressed that you want to wander the Wilderness in search of freedom and true inner peace. I know that you are not interested in those things. Therefore, there is no reason for me to let you continue to grow stronger to the point that you can threaten me."
Long Qing held his knees and said tiredly, "People like you never say anything before killing. Therefore, I am very curious. Why did you give me the chance to say my last words?"
"I heard that you told Ning Que that you think you are the Son of Yama?"
Ye Hongyu said, "Of course, the main reason why I did not kill you now is that I also need to rest. I do not want to die with a piece of trash like you."
Long Qing looked at her and said mockingly, "The Tao Addict actually needs to rest now? Is it because your spirit has been worn down by the Seat of Heavenly Black Jade after you became the Great Divine Priest of Judgment? "
Ye Hongyu did not get angry because of his mockery. She said calmly, "It is said that below Haotian, above the Divine Throne, even if you are a Demigod, you are still not a true God. Humans need to rest."
"Humans need to rest. Yes … Many people have always wanted to be a God, but they do not know that being a human is also a very happy thing, as long as you do not become a ghost."
Long Qing said desolately, "I do not know whether I am the Son of Yama or a person of the Heaven's Mandate. But I probably cannot be considered a human anymore."
The blood-red divine robe gradually dried. Ye Hongyu looked at him and said calmly, "No matter whether you are a human or a God, you will become a ghost today. If you are really the Son of Yama, then I will send you to see your father."
As soon as she finished speaking, she took another step forward.
Suddenly, in the forest by the Blue Lake, there was a sudden dense sound of footsteps. There were also a few extremely strong spiritual powers that instantly covered the gravel ground.
Looking at more than a thousand grassland barbarians wearing fur coats and holding all kinds of weapons rushing out of the forest, Ye Hongyu's eyes suddenly became bright and sharp.
The people of the grassland tribes who would appear in the frontier fortress of the North of Yan Kingdom could only belong to the Left King's Palace, which was now in a precarious situation. Then the several strong spiritual powers that covered the gravel ground must have come from the High Priests of the palace.
"So you have an agreement with these barbarians. But they are not having a good time now. How could they still send several High Priests to pick you up? What did you pay for it?"
Ye Hongyu asked.
Long Qing stood up. Blood and pus kept flowing from the center of his black taoist robe. The hole in his body must have been seriously injured in the previous battle.
"The Left King's Palace is indeed living a miserable life now. They are attacked by the Desolate Man and the people of the Central Plains. Just like me now, I am attacked by the Divine Hall of Light and Ning Que in the dark. You asked me what I have to pay to win the trust of these grassland people. In fact, I have not paid anything. "
He looked at Ye Hongyu and said, "The Yan people and the Left King's Palace have been neighbors for many years. We have been enemies for many years and friends for many years. Coincidentally, I have been a friend of their new Chanyu since many years ago. More importantly, we are in the same situation now and have the same goal."
Ye Hongyu asked, "What goal?"
Long Qing said, "To become strong again and then … to take revenge."
Ye Hongyu was silent.
Long Qing said, "Actually, I did not expect that you would catch up with me here. But fortunately, as you said, no matter how strong you are, you are only a human, not a real god. So you need to rest, which gave me a chance to turn things around. At the same time, I am also very grateful to myself for being able to stand in front of you until now."
Ye Hongyu suddenly smiled slightly.
Her beautiful face was slightly pale, but this smile instantly brightened her beauty.
Long Qing was not in the mood to appreciate her beauty, even though he was sometimes amazed by her beauty in the West-Hill Divine Palace over the years.
Because he could see the mockery and disdain in her smile.
"It's true that I'm not a god. I'm just a human being, so sometimes I still have some human curiosity. For example, whether you're the Son of Yama or what your intentions are in heading north to the Wilderness. So I've been waiting to see who would appear to help you."
Ye Hongyu looked at him and said calmly, "Ning Que once said something very strange by the Yanming Lake. Curiosity kills the cat. I don't understand it, but I know that curiosity can easily delay things. However, it is a pity that the level you have reached is not enough to delay me from killing you."
Long Qing had an incredulous expression on his face. He said coldly, "Now I have a thousand grassland warriors and seven High Priests here. How can you kill me?"
Ye Hongyu looked at him as if she was looking at an idiot and said, "You are just 30 feet in front of me. Even if the Chanyu of the Golden Tribe leads his Wolf Cavalry here, how can they stop me from killing you, let alone the Left King's Palace?"
Long Qing said in shock, "But after you kill me, how can you escape?"
Ye Hongyu said, "My goal in coming to the West-Hill is to kill you, not to escape. As long as I can kill you, does it matter whether I can escape or not?"
Such a simple sentence required a strong logic and a fearless will to be able to say it so calmly. Hearing this, Long Qing's expression suddenly froze.
Ye Hongyu finally said, "Most importantly, if you become a meaningless corpse, what reason will the Left King's Palace have to keep me alive? Will these barbarians be so loyal that they will not hesitate to destroy their entire race to kill me, the Great Divine Priest of West-Hill? Long Qing, you are really stupid. "
Long Qing's face became abnormally pale because he knew that Ye Hongyu was right. If he died now, why would the Left King's Palace avenge him and fight against the Great Divine Priest of Judgment?
He held on to the last hope and said, "But they will not watch you kill me, because I am their last hope to survive and even grow in the Wilderness!"
As if to prove Long Qing's judgment, the branches of the forest by the lake suddenly became chaotic. Several powerful auras that had already landed on the gravel ground instantly became more violent and attacked Ye Hongyu's body.
Those auras contained the wild power of nature, and even faintly had the smell of some wild beasts in the Wilderness. That was the unique spiritual attack of the grassland barbarian priests!
Ye Hongyu's face was slightly pale. She looked at the forest coldly.
A proud and domineering snort came from her thin lips.
Almost at the same time, a painful muffled sound came from the distant forest.
In the dark forest, a priest of the Left King's Palace, who was wearing an expensive fur coat and several kinds of bone celestial devices, sat down on the ground with a terrified expression. A very thin bone instrument on his body broke instantly, and two streams of black blood flowed from his nostrils. He was seriously injured.
Ye Hongyu looked at the forest and felt the several spiritual auras. She disdainfully said, "How dare you hurt me with the spiritual power. You are really brave and stupid."
Before they met, a priest of the Left King's Palace had his sense of perception broken and his internal organs bleeding. The grassland priests in the forest looked at each other and saw the shock and fear in each other's eyes.
The most shocking thing about Tao Addict Ye Hongyu was that she was proficient in all kinds of arts. When she met a Sword Master, she was a more powerful Sword Master. When she met an Array Master, she was a better Array Master. When she met a Psyche Master, she was the most terrifying Psyche Master. Now that she had become the Great Divine Priest of Judgment, why would she be afraid of the spiritual power of these grassland priests?
Ye Hongyu looked at Long Qing.
The Nether Taoist Sword that she had snatched earlier had been thrown away. Now it was her Taoist Sword that had been quietly hidden in the blood-red robe. It was her natal Taoist Sword.
The sword seemed to have no edge. It swam out of the robe and was as agile as a fish. However, it left a straight white line in the air.
Long Qing looked desperate and smiled bitterly.
However, at this moment, there was a loud bang!
A bolt of lightning fell from the sky and hit the Taoist Sword in the air without any deviation!
After a while, the dull roar of thunder sounded in the sky.
The sound lasted for an eternity.
There was little rain in the cold autumn in the Wilderness, and there was no rain today. However, there was thunder.
Countless Sky Thunders struck the lake and the forest. It was deafening, the lake water was shaking, and the gravel ground by the lake was full of smoke and dust.
After a long time, the thunder finally stopped.
At this time, the sky became much gloomier. The smoke and dust in the sky seemed to float up and form thick black clouds, shrouding the lake and the mountain.
Ye Hongyu took back her Taoist Sword and looked up at the sky. Behind the black clouds, there was a faint flash of lightning.
The will of heaven was unpredictable. The power of heaven was unpredictable.
She looked at the sky in silence. No one knew what she was thinking.
Long Qing was sent flying further away. He leaned against a rock. His burnt face was full of excitement and fanaticism. He coughed up blood and laughed loudly.
He looked at Ye Hongyu, his face twisted. He shouted crazily, "I said that I am not a human. Naturally, I have the will of heaven! I am a person of the Heavenly Mandate! Look! Haotian did not abandon me! "
"Ye Hongyu! As long as heaven does not kill me, what can you do to me! "
…
…
Ye Hongyu did not care about Long Qing's crazy shouting. She looked up at the sky attentively, as if there was a beautiful scenery behind the clouds.
She saw the scenery.
Her expression was a little confused, and then it gradually returned to indifference.
Then she saw a person on a cliff far away. The cliff was very high, so the person was also standing very high. He was so high that he could reach the clouds in the sky.
The person had a Taoist bun and wore a light-colored Taoist robe. He carried a wooden sword.
From the moment she saw the person on the cliff, Ye Hongyu stopped looking at the sky. She only had eyes for him. However, no matter how she looked, the person remained silent and did not move.
Ye Hongyu's expression became more and more indifferent. There seemed to be a thin layer of frost on her eyebrows.
Then she was unable to suppress her anger.
This was the first time in her life that she was angry at the man with the wooden sword.
She suddenly turned around and looked at Long Qing again. Her killing intent rose again.
It was as if she had sensed something.
The man on the cliff in the distance made a sound.
The thick black clouds that seemed to be flowing slowly but were actually turbulent suddenly squeezed out more than ten balls of light. They turned into more than ten bolts of lightning and fell towards the blue lake again.
The lightning came again. The boiling stones in the lake cracked uneasily. The aura of heaven and earth was torn into countless pieces. It turned into a terrible hurricane and violently passed through the gravel by the lake.
Lightning flashed and thunder roared. The blood-red Divine Robe of Judgment danced in the wind. The figure did not fall.
…
…
More than a thousand grassland barbarians rushed out of the dense forest, but before they had time to approach the lake, they were shaken by the thunderbolts falling from the sky. The instinctive reverence for the sky made them kneel on the ground, constantly praying that God would forgive their sins.
The seven priests of the Left King's Palace in the dense forest were much calmer than the ordinary people. However, it was precisely because they could sense the majesty and power contained in the thunderbolts that they were actually more shocked than the ordinary people.
When they saw the blood-red Divine Robe dancing in the wind and the figure stubbornly refusing to obey the lightning, the shock in their hearts finally reached its peak. He was indeed the legendary Great Divine Priest of West-Hill. He had such a terrible willpower and dared to fight with God!
…
…
The wind and thunder gradually subsided.
Ye Hongyu stood by the lake full of holes. Her figure looked a little lonely.
She did not look at Long Qing anymore.
Nor did she look at the figure on the cliff in the distance.
She did not look at the scenery in the clouds.
She did not look at the scenery of the lake and mountains.
She did not look at anything.
He just looked at himself, looked at his own shadow, and looked at it silently for a long time.
She gave a loud shout.
This shout was very clear and angry. In the quiet lake and mountains, it spread far and wide.
This shout was full of unwillingness.
A stream of blood slowly flowed from the corner of her mouth.
In the forest, several priests of the Left King's Palace from the grassland were shocked by the terrible spiritual impact contained in this shout. They spat out blood and directly fell down, unconscious.
…
…
Ye Su, who was standing on the cliff in the distance, heard this angry shout.
He knew that her anger was directed at him.
This was the first time in his life that his sister showed anger to him. She even faintly wanted to challenge him.
Ye Su was not unhappy. He was very happy.
He was so happy that he wanted to dance and shout to his heart's content.
Because he knew that after seeing the real lightning today, she would no longer be the sister who looked at his back and wanted to get close to him. But she was always stubborn or self-abased and did not dare to open her mouth.
From today on, she was Ye Hongyu.
However, he still could not let her kill Long Qing.
Because the Abbey Dean did not want the apostate to die.
Ye Su looked up at the sky and the thick clouds that seemed to be within reach. He looked at the slowly accumulating bright lightning behind the clouds. He guessed that Haotian seemed to think the same way.
…
…
Using the sword to attract lightning was the legendary state of Sword Taoism.
Ye Su realized something in the small Taoist temple in Chang 'an. It seemed that he had made a big step forward on the road of cultivation.
If it was in the past, Ye Hongyu would only be happy for her brother.
However, today she felt very complicated. She was unwilling and angry.
The most important question was, where did the clouds come from?
After sitting on the Seat of Heavenly Black Jade and becoming the Great Divine Priest of Judgment, her Heaven-man Connection gradually deepened. When her gaze passed through the seemingly terrifying black clouds of thunder and saw the real scenery in the sky, she could faintly feel the will of Haotian.
However, almost at the same time, she did not know whether it was because of unwillingness or anger, but she suddenly had the urge to fight!
As the Great Divine Priest of Judgment, even if she occasionally had such a thought, it would be a great disrespect and the most serious sin.
Ye Hongyu felt a slight uneasiness in her Taoist Heart. She suddenly shivered and very valiantly escaped from that dangerous state of mind.
She slowly lowered her head, and her black hair fluttered in the breeze.
The lightning gradually subsided, and the clouds gradually dispersed. Not long after, they disappeared without a trace, and the clear autumn sky was revealed.
Ye Hongyu did not think about the blasphemous thought that flashed through her mind.
But how could she really erase the thought when it was born?
Even if it was just a flash, it would definitely leave a mark in her mind.
The clouds and thunder dispersed.
She still lowered her head.
In the deepest part of her heart, somewhere that she could not see, there seemed to be a voice indifferently saying, "This seems to be possible."
After an unknown period of time.
Ye Hongyu raised her head.
"You are not allowed to return to the Central Plains without my permission."
She looked at Long Qing and said calmly, "Otherwise, even if Heaven can tolerate you, I will not let you live."
Her blood-red clothes fluttered.
She turned and left the Blue Lake.
…
…
After Ye Hongyu left the capital of the Kingdom of Qi, Ning Que did not immediately leave with Sangsang. First, he needed to repair the horse carriage that his master had left for him. Otherwise, although the journey was not long, they would not be able to continue.
He now knew that the old red-robed priest from the Divine Hall of Light was called Chen Cun. He had already confirmed that the priest's loyalty to Sangsang was far greater than his love for the Academy. Therefore, he would certainly not miss the opportunity to use him to find the materials needed to repair the horse carriage and other things.
With the help of such a noble person, Ning Que also enjoyed the same treatment in the Kingdom of Qi as he did in the Tang Empire. He could use almost all the rare materials in the West-Hill vassal state.
Usually, this white Daoist temple was extremely quiet, but now, it was occupied by all kinds of terrifying sounds. Iron hammers constantly pounded on the walls of the steel carriage, producing thunderous sounds. Sharp and hard tools repeatedly engraved talisman lines, and disgusting sounds similar to human abdominal rehearsals when rare metals were melted and poured. These sounds alternated and seemed to never stop.
No matter how devoted the priest was, he could not read the scriptures. No matter how diligent the papal cavalryman was, he was not in the mood to practice martial arts. Even the wrinkles on Chen Cun's face were increasing rapidly.
Fortunately, although Ning Que was not as talented as the Sixth Brother in this aspect, he was still very amazing. It did not take long for the black horse carriage to be repaired to its original state.
If one did not pay attention to the ugly scars on the walls of the carriage.
When they left the capital of the Kingdom of Qi, the red-robed priest Chen Cun sent a team of cavalrymen to escort them. Believing that there would be no problem, Ning Que finally had the mood to enjoy the scenery outside the window.
What really made him feel better was that someone was watching the scenery with him by the window.
With Ye Hongyu's help, Sangsang's condition was finally under control. She was no longer in a coma. Although she was still a little weak, she could at least enjoy the scenery or look at Ning Que's face.
