Ye Wuchen flipped open her left hand, which she had been clenching tightly. There was a black clip stuck to her delicate palm. During the intense battle with the four Divine level experts, which had destroyed the earth, this clip, which could have been crushed with a little more force, had remained undamaged all this time. Website
Ye Wuchen picked up the clip and helped her put it back on her head. Today, she was indeed too tired. During the flight just now, he could clearly feel that she was extremely weak. Apart from the battle with Killer three years ago, she had never been this weak. The combination of the four strongest people in the Nanhuang Sect was nothing to scoff at. In order to save him, she had been clenching her teeth and holding on. She had even used all of her strength several times.
In the distance, a dangerous aura surged. The aura of the God rank was quickly approaching. Ye Wuchen descended and landed behind a stone wall. He closed his eyes and said, "Xiangxiang Beila, let's go back."
Xiangxiang Beila appeared on his shoulder. She could feel her master's anxiety and seriousness. She did not dare to delay at all. Her two small hands clasped in front of her chest. The layer of white light on her body quickly spread and enveloped Ye Wuchen and Oculum's bodies. "Ding", the white light instantly disappeared. Xiangxiang Beila, Ye Wuchen, and Oculum disappeared together with the white light.
A few seconds later, the sinister-looking Elder Di and Shui Xuanfeng flew past with a whistling wind and stopped at the same time.
"… Disappeared?" Elder Di looked around and said in surprise.
"That's right. I can't feel it either. The Lady of Sky Punishment's aura indeed disappeared in this place … Hmph, they must be hiding nearby. Let's search carefully." Shui Xuanfeng looked around and said cautiously.
The Nanhuangzong experts who followed them quickly spread out and began to search the surrounding area. However, after a long time, they still found nothing. At this time, an old man in his sixties rushed over in a panic. When he saw Elder Di and Shui Xuanfeng, he anxiously shouted, "Elder Di, Xuanfeng, quickly go back and check on Elder Tian. He can't hold on any longer … Hurry!"
"What?!" Shui Xuanfeng and Elder Di were shocked. They looked at each other in dismay and quickly flew back.
They returned to the place where the Maiden of Heavenly Punishment had destroyed. The moment they got close, their hearts were filled with shock … They could feel the aura that belonged to Elder Tian. However, that aura was so weak. It was so weak that it was like an old man with one foot in the grave and could lose his life at any moment.
What was going on!? They knew better than anyone else in the world just how powerful the healing ability of the godly level Water Jade Technique was. A stab to the chest … let alone one stab, even if there were a thousand or a hundred stabs, as long as his vitals were not damaged, it would not be able to kill him. Instead, he would recover at an astonishing speed … Why was his life force so weak right now!?
They floated to Elder Tian's side. Before they had the time to ask, they were both stunned again. To their shock, Elder Tian's body was actually showing a deathly grey colour. Furthermore, that deathly grey colour was deepening at a speed that could be seen with the naked eye. It was devouring the rosy colour that normal skin should have. Accompanying that was his aura becoming weaker and weaker. At the same time, Elder Tian's skin had already withered like an old tree. He who looked like he was only around seventy years old now looked like an old man who had lived for more than a hundred years.
"This … What is going on!" Elder Di was shocked and bewildered. The shock in his heart was at its peak.
Shui Xuanfeng stretched out his hand and tried to touch Elder Tian's body. However, he heard Elder Tian's lips moving slightly. A weak and dry voice came out. "Don't touch me!"
Shui Xuanfeng's hand stopped in mid-air. He could no longer move.
Elder Tian's skin was still turning grey. Looking from afar, his body that was lying there looked like a withered old man made of mud. His lips trembled as he turned his gaze towards Shui Yunlan with difficulty. He spoke in an extremely weak voice, "Sect … Mistress, this old man … is useless. I am … no … longer … able …"
Elder Tian's voice stopped. Every part of his body had also completely frozen at this moment. The colour of his body had also frozen into a grey colour that caused one's heart to turn cold. His eyes were wide open and his lips were half opened … He died with a grievance. Until the very end, he did not know what the terrifying energy that was devouring his life force was.
The strongest expert in Nanhuangzong, a high level Highgod Realm expert, Elder Shui, Shui ManTian, died in the hands of the Maiden of Sky Punishment.
In the absolute darkness, Oculum did not just pierce the Sky Punishment Edge into Elder Tian's chest. At the same time, she poured all the energy of death into Shui ManTian's body. The energy of death was like a terrifying death god that was living in Shui ManTian's body, devouring his energy and taking away his life.
"Elder Tian!!"
"Elder Tian!!"
"Elder Tian!!"
Waves of mournful cries resounded through the sky, dyeing the air that was filled with dense death element with a desolate color. The Southern Emperor Villa was in a state of desolation, and more than half of it had collapsed. At the center, there was a huge hole that seemed impossible to fill, and it was a ghastly sight. Out of the four strongest experts in Nanhuangzong, one was dead, one was crippled and two were injured. More than half of the Heaven and Spirit Realms had died. The arrival of the Maiden of Sky Punishment was like a nightmare. She brought an unprecedented disaster to Nanhuangzong and left a dark shadow in Nanhuangzong that could never be erased … The thing that made them unable to eat or sleep in peace was that the Maiden of Sky Punishment had brought the captured Ye Wuchen away safely. No one knew where they went.
His ears were filled with the mournful cries of the First Elder's death. Looking at his missing left shoulder that would never recover, Shui Yunlan slammed his fist on the ground … The cause of everything was because he, Nanhuangzong, had captured Ye Wuchen and attracted the Maiden of Sky Punishment. It was too late for regrets now. Right now, he had to consider what he should do next and how he should face Ye Wuchen …

Ye Shuiyao sat quietly in front of the desk. She looked at the painting of a beauty in front of her. She was quiet like a snow lotus that had bloomed quietly. Her sitting posture was extremely beautiful. Her hips, breasts, and waist, which were not comparable to a young girl's, were still outlined under the cover of her clothes. However, her gaze was faintly drifting. Sometimes it was straight, sometimes it was flickering. No one knew what she was thinking about or what she was missing.
Ning Xue rested her chin on her arm as she leaned on the desk. She held a brush in her hand and casually drew on the paper in front of her. As for what she was drawing, even she did not know. She raised her head and asked with longing in her eyes, "Sister, is Brother not back yet?"
She had asked this question countless times today.
"He will be back very soon." Ye Shuiyao woke up from her daze and replied softly.
As if to reflect her words, a warm white light flashed not far away from them. Ye Wuchen appeared there with Oculum in his arms. He let out a small sigh of relief and smiled at Ye Shuiyao and Ning Xue.
"Brother!" Ning Xue's eyes released a moving expression. She jumped down from the chair and hurriedly ran to Ye Wuchen. She shouted excitedly, "Brother, you are finally back. Did you have fun outside?"
Ye Shuiyao stood up and walked to his side. Her gaze was as gentle as water.
Ye Wuchen and Ye Shuiyao's gazes met lightly. He bent down and smiled at Ning Xue. "Brother had fun, but some people were not …"
Come to think of it, the expression of Shui Yunlan, who impersonated Shui Yuntian, must be extremely interesting. Would he not dare to provoke Oculum again because of his extreme fear of Oculum, or would he resort to unscrupulous means to take revenge … Based on Nanhuangzong's style of doing things, the former was very likely, and the latter was also very likely. But no matter what, it would not be in the near future.
"Oh … Big Brother must have gone to do something dangerous. Otherwise, he wouldn't have not brought me along." Ning Xue raised her little nose and said with a little bit of unwillingness. In this world, the person who understood Ye Wuchen the most, besides himself, was Ning Xue. She was simple and innocent, but she was not stupid at all.
Ye Wuchen smiled and held Ning Xue's little hand. He held it in his palm and squeezed it gently. He did not explain anything. What Ning Xue needed was never an explanation from him.
"Eh? Sister Oculum, is she asleep? "Ning Xue raised her head and looked curiously at the motionless Oculum in Ye Wuchen's arms.
"Yes, she's very tired this time, so she's asleep. She should be sleeping for a long time." Ye Wuchen replied with a smile. Indeed, based on Oculum's current state of exhaustion, it was unknown how long she would need to rest before she could recover. If it was an ordinary person, it might take a month or even a few months. But for Oculum, it might only take a few days. Her ability to recover was another terrifying aspect of her.
He turned to Ye Shuiyao and said seriously, "Sister, everything is going smoothly … Although I don't want Oculum to be in danger, I'm not surprised that she had secretly followed me and appeared there. Instead, it was within my expectations. Her appearance is enough to keep Nanhuangzong busy for a period of time."
Ye Shuiyao nodded and helped Ye Wuchen to sit on her couch. She then said gently, "Little Chen, I don't understand. Why did you use this method to find out about Nanhuangzong's whereabouts?"
Ye Wuchen fell silent for a moment when he heard this. He sighed softly and slowly lifted his head to look at the sky. He then said softly, "It's been three years, he should appear … My intuition tells me that soon … Maybe tomorrow, maybe the day after tomorrow, maybe a few days later, he'll appear …"
Ye Shuiyao's eyes were dazed. Him? Who is he?
Looking at Ye Wuchen's dazed expression, she did not ask any more questions. She just stood quietly in front of him.
"We were still in Nanhuangzong previously. If people knew that I'm at home now, they would definitely guess something. I need to hide somewhere during this period of time. On one hand, it's to deceive people, and on the other hand, it's to let Oculum rest without any worries. "Ye Wuchen looked at Oculum, who was in a deep sleep in his arms, and said to Ye Shuiyao.
Ye Shuiyao nodded. "Is it that place?"
"Yes, it's there. There shouldn't be a better place than that. And that's the first place in my memory. It's also the place where I first met Cher. " Ye Wuchen grabbed Ningxue's hand tightly. His memories drifted to the time when he first came to Tianchen Continent, when he was the most free and unfettered. Whether it was for him or for Ningxue, that place retained a memory that they could not let go of the most. It was also there that their fates were closely intertwined and entangled for the rest of their lives.
Ye Shuiyao's beautiful eyes were filled with tenderness. She nodded gently. "Go in peace. I'll explain to Father and Mother."
