The Traceless Sword hummed softly.
It was a joyous and cheerful sword hum. The sound was clear and bright, and the body of the sword trembled. It was as if it had been a long time, a kind of ancient waiting.
At this moment, Chi Guyan's figure descended from the sky and slowly landed on the ground. Her hands and legs were covered with bloody wounds.
She wanted to look for the sword.
It was an instinctive action.
However, she soon realised that the Traceless Sword was being held in the hands of a black figure. The Traceless Sword emitted a series of sword cries.
"Shameless thief?" Chi Guyan mumbled and closed her eyes slowly. However, she quickly opened her eyes again and said, "No, who are you?!"
…
The Heaven Zen Mountain was very tall.
If one wanted to climb from the bottom of the mountain to the top, even for a well-trained soldier, it would normally take at least four to six hours.
Of course, it would be a different story for a powerful person who was at the peak of the Sage State like Qian Yu.
Qian Yu was extremely fast. She only left a white afterimage as she sprinted in the forest. No one could see her footsteps on the ground.
Furthermore, Qian Yu was conserving her speed.
That was because she had to take care of the disciples of the Ling Yun Tower who were following her. Even though the disciples of the Ling Yun Tower had split up and escaped, Qian Yu still couldn't escape alone.
However, Qian Yu still couldn't escape by herself. She had been observing the direction in which the disciples of Ling Yun Tower were escaping and was ready to help them at any time.
At this moment …
A huge crowd of people appeared in front of her.
There were so many of them that she couldn't even see the end of them. Every single one of them was wearing black armor and looked like a black cloud that surged towards the peak of the mountain.
"Could Monster Emperor Baizhi have planted Demon soldiers at the bottom of the mountain?!" Qian Yu's body trembled. She didn't see any Demon soldiers when she ascended the mountain.
However, that didn't mean that there weren't any.
If Monster Emperor Baizhi had predicted her arrival and ordered the Demon soldiers to hide in the forest, it would be normal that she wasn't discovered.
That sounded exaggerated.
However, if Yun Qingwu was the mastermind, nothing was impossible.
"Why are there so many Demon soldiers? Are the heavens trying to destroy the Ling Yun Tower?! " Qian Yu looked down and could tell that there were at least tens of thousands of Demon soldiers.
Furthermore, there were even more.
Because in the distance, there were sounds of battle cries and rumbling footsteps, shaking the forest.
"Yu Er?! It's really Yu 'er! " Just when Qian Yu was about to lose all hope, a familiar voice was heard from the "black cloud".
Then, a figure dashed out of the dark clouds and appeared in front of Qian Yu in a split second. He was wearing golden armor and a black cloak.
"You? Why … are you here?! "Qian Yu recognized the person in front of her immediately. It was the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty.
Emperor Lin Mubai.
However, what she didn't understand was why Lin Mubai would wear a black cloak over his armor. It looked like a Demon Weapon.
Most importantly, how did Lin Mubai get to the Heaven Zen Mountain?
"I … no, I am here to help you, Yu Er!" Emperor Lin Mubai waved his hand and the soldiers behind him stopped in unison.
"Greetings, Your Highness!"
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
"…"
The soldiers cheered in unison.
On the other hand, Qian Yu frowned.
"Shut up!" Qian Yu shouted softly before turning to look at Lin Mubai. "I've already told you that you are not allowed to participate in the trip to the Heaven Zen Mountain. Are you trying to destroy the Great Xia Dynasty and send these innocent soldiers to their deaths by doing this?!"
"If we lose this battle, will I still have my empire?" Emperor Lin Mubai asked, "When the tree falls, the monkeys scatter. The situation of the Southern Region has already told me that no one can escape responsibility for this battle!"
"Fight to the death!"
"Protect the dynasty!"
"Fight to the death!"
"Protect …"
The soldiers cheered in unison after hearing Emperor Lin Mubai's words.
Meanwhile, Emperor Lin Mubai took a step forward and held Qian Yu with both hands to stop her from continuing. "Yu Er, I know what you want to say. You want to say that I'm sending them to their deaths by sending them to their deaths, right? No, Yu Er, you don't understand. I can do … anything for you! "
"What can you do?" Qian Yu questioned.
"I can go against the will of the late Emperor and the teachings of my ancestors. As long as I can save the world and save Yu Er, I can give up anything!" Emperor Lin Mubai said calmly.
"Do you know what you are saying?"
"Of course I know. As the Emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty, I have to follow the rules. I know that my actions are no longer worthy of being the Emperor. Hence, I have already issued an edict to abdicate the throne. Next month, 'Lin Yun' will ascend the throne!" Emperor Lin Mubai's face was filled with determination.
"Mubai, you …" Qian Yu's body trembled. She looked at Lin Mubai and moved her lips. She wanted to say something, but she couldn't say anything.
However, her body stood quietly on the spot, allowing Lin Mubai's hands to support her. She did not try to break free, instead, she slowly tightened her grip.
"Don't worry, Yu Er. I did it. He is here!"
"Him? Who? "
"Someone who can save the world!"
"No, no, no. Mubai, I know what you are thinking. However, the situation has changed. A new powerful individual has descended. It's the Candle Dragon, the ancient Godly Beast. Have you heard of him?"
"The Candle Dragon?!" Lin Mubai's expression changed.
"Yes. If not for the Candle Dragon's sudden appearance, Chi Guyan and I would have already won. Do you understand? Even Chi Guyan couldn't defeat the Candle Dragon. No one in this world can defeat him! "
"He can!"
"Are you talking about Fang Zhengzhi?"
"No. This concerns the reputation of the late Emperor Taizu. Even I only found out that the 'taboo' left by the late Emperor Taizu is …"
"Taboo?"
"Yes. The late Emperor Taizu ordered that no one can activate the taboo, unless … the Great Xia Dynasty is in an irreversible situation."
"What is the taboo?"
"Yu Er, I'm sorry that I can't answer your question. However, if I'm not wrong, he should be at the peak of the Heaven Zen Mountain now. Apart from him, the troops of the other three empires are also heading towards the Heaven Zen Mountain. Yu Er, please believe me. Humankind will definitely win this battle. We definitely can!" Lin Mubai hesitated for a while before saying with a determined expression.
"At the peak of the mountain?!" Qian Yu turned around and looked at the peak of the Heaven Zen Mountain. She didn't believe that someone could "pass" by her without making a sound.
However, the person who said that was Lin Mubai.
A man who wouldn't lie to her at this moment.
Moreover, the Four Great Empires had always been fighting against each other. However, Lin Mubai was so certain that the other three empires would attack the Heaven Zen Mountain together?
Who had such ability and authority!
…
At the peak of the Heaven Zen Mountain.
Chi Guyan stared intently at the black figure in front of her. When she saw the Traceless Sword in the black figure's hand, it would be a lie to say that she wasn't shocked.
After all, it was the Traceless Sword.
In this world, only Fang Zhengzhi could draw the Traceless Sword. This was something that almost everyone in the Great Xia Dynasty knew.
She was able to use the Traceless Sword because of Fang Zhengzhi.
However, now …
The Traceless Sword was in the hands of the black figure in front of her. Moreover, the Traceless Sword didn't resist. Instead, it made a joyful sound.
"Who are you? Who are you? " Chi Guyan struggled to prop herself up. She wanted to stabilize her body, but her injuries were too severe. Both her legs were trembling.
"Chi Guyan? The daughter of the Divine Lord Chi Hong? "The black figure spoke. His voice was ancient and sounded like it came from a faraway place.
"You …"
"Don't worry, I'm not your enemy, I'm your friend." The black figure shook his head when he saw Chi Guyan's expression. Then, he took off the black cloak on his head.
It was a face that had experienced countless years.
It was like a withered tree. It was filled with deep wrinkles from his forehead to his face and his head of white hair.
However, the pair of eyes on his face …
They were as sharp as a sword.
The Candle Dragon's body tumbled in the air. The thick black fog spread and shrunk continuously. It seemed like the attack earlier on had injured him greatly.
The appearance of the black figure.
He was slightly surprised. However, that was all.
After all, in the world of the Candle Dragon, no one could go against him. Therefore, why would he care about a random person?
That was the attitude of the Candle Dragon.
However, Monster Emperor Baizhi, who was not far away, stared at the withered face and the pair of sword-like eyes. Her fingers trembled slightly.
That was because she was Monster Emperor Baizhi, the Nine-Tailed White-Tailed White-Tailed.
Her natural senses told her that the withered man in front of her was extremely terrifying. There seemed to be an endless amount of energy hidden in his body.
"Who are you? There is no powerful person like you in the Human Alliance! "Monster Emperor Baizhi spoke. She revealed her fangs and white fur appeared on her body.
She was defending.
She was ready to defend against the sudden attack of the man.
"Is this the Candle Dragon? Ancient Godly Beast … Mountain God of Mount Zhong? I didn't expect such a thing to exist. " The man did not reply Monster Emperor Baizhi. He looked at the thick black fog in the air and the Candle Dragon who was faintly visible in the fog.
"How can an ant like you call this god's name directly?" The Candle Dragon roared furiously and spat out a black thunderbolt from his mouth.
It was extremely fast.
It struck the man's head.
"Boom!"
The black lightning struck the man's body, from his head all the way to the soles of his feet. Streaks of lightning constantly circled around his body.
However, the man continued to look up.
His hand that was holding the Traceless Sword did not move at all. He looked at the Candle Dragon quietly and allowed the lightning to flash on his body before disappearing.
"Hmm?" The Candle Dragon was shocked. That was because even Chi Guyan was injured by his lightning. However, the man who looked like a piece of rotten wood did not move at all?
Was he a Godly State expert?
However …
The Candle Dragon looked up at the closed Door of the Realm of God in the sky and shook his head. If the Door of God was not open, how could there be a Godly State expert?
Moreover, the number of Godly State experts who could withstand his black lightning in the ancient battlefield could be counted with one's fingers.
There was definitely no such person in front of him.
"Chi Guyan, leave the rest to me. The Emperor is here and will bring you away. You can sit down and recuperate," said the man as he looked at Chi Guyan.
"Thank you … Senior." Chi Guyan nodded.
This time, she did not reject him and sat on the ground. That was because her instincts told her that the man in front of her was very powerful. However, he was not a threat to her.
Just like what the man said.
They were not enemies.
After seeing Chi Guyan sit down, the man gave a benevolent smile. Then, he looked up at the Candle Dragon.
"Tell me your name, human!" The Candle Dragon extended his dragon claw from the thick black fog. It was extremely cold and sharp.
"My name? Hmm … It's been too long since anyone asked my name … To be honest, I've almost forgotten it myself. However, today, I've been asked by people one after another, and now, I'm even asked by a torch dragon. It's quite novel. "The man smiled. His withered face trembled, causing the wrinkles on it to become denser.
Then, the man pointed his Traceless Sword towards the sky.
It was aimed at the Candle Dragon's only eye.
A devilish purple radiance shone from the Traceless Sword. It looked like it was poured with blood and flowed continuously, as if something was trying to escape from it.
Roar! A beast roared.
A purple dragon flew out from the Traceless Sword. It looked like a real dragon and the patterns on its scales could be seen clearly.
"It has been a long time since we last met, old friend. Let's fight together again today, let's slay the dragon!" The man muttered and disappeared after taking a step forward.
There was only a beam of purple radiance that shot into the sky.
It tore apart the darkness in the sky.
"Dragon!"
"Slay!"
"Slay!"
The man's voice seemed to be coming from a faraway place, but it also seemed to be whispering in one's ear. The man's voice resounded through the sky, and a purple dragon soared in the sky.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"…"
Lightning flashed and raindrops fell. It was purple rain. It hit the thick black fog on the Candle Dragon's body and the sound of dripping water could be heard.
